    Bruh.......I was not expecting to see anything about Eyedea 13 years after his passing. Good on you.

    Damn, how i miss this vid for so long? Growing up in the twin cities as he came up I got mad love for eydea. I was fortunate to meet and hang in a limited capacity with most the cats in the mpls hip-hop scene. As a free styler eydea was head and shoulders above the scene and remains among the best to do it.

    When i was detoxing from methadone/benzos about 10 years ago I would put Eyedea "The Many Faces Of Oliver Hart" and let it repeat, it was the only thing that helped me get any semblance of rest while being so sick. I'm pretty sure that album saved my life. Eyedea was an otherworldly talent

      I'm glad you got clean brother, my mentor was an addict as well and he told me a lot about his struggle. I hope its gotten easier on you

    • @jakethesnake1023
      @jakethesnake1023 Год назад

      thanks man! its essentially been a lifelong struggle but at the end of the day i liken it to any other struggle that everyone else has to learn to navigate. I started at 13 on opiates and finally got off at 28. Im one of the lucky ones honestly. SO many people have no support system to guide them through life while getting clean and end up homeless and/or dead within a matter of years. I had family behind me who took care of me when i didnt even want to live anymore and obviously thats paramount to getting clean. Grateful is an understatement@@Esciem9

    I love all the Rhymesayers content coming from the channel, thank you for making these (:

      @damienperry5758 Год назад +2

      I second this notion with one caveat: you have to react to both back to back on the same reaction. Part two is a peripeteia of part one

    • @KidComet
      @KidComet Год назад +1

      Hell yes to Rhymesayers. Some of my favorite sounds come from them. Needless to say, hearing Aes, Slug, and Eyedea together (The Orphanage) on the same tracks is a beautiful thing to experience.
      RIP Michael

      Dive part 2 is prob top fav song of all time. Resonates deep

  • @user-pd8jg3cr8x

    “Smile” is probably E&A’s best song. “Now” is one of my favorites, too.

    • @joemiller7082
      @joemiller7082 Год назад

      Imo, “Now “ is his most technically impressive song. He’s going SO FAST.

  • @danimalcrackers1224
    @danimalcrackers1224 Год назад +1

    I think everyone who listens to this song can’t avoid hearing his soul anger and cry for help and that’s the catalyst that makes it one of the most impressionable songs we have heard

    @stevensykes3936 6 месяцев назад +1

    Saw him live once a long time ago. He rapped for 2 and a half hours straight. Then Doseone went on and Michael just went to his booth and sold his own merch. Talked to him for about 20 minutes and even got a cpl selfies with him. What a cool guy.

    There's alot to dive into with eyedea but you should definitely check out a song called "weird side" which is on an album that he released under the name Oliver Hart, which is a pseudonym for the phrase all of her heart and the entire album is a masterpiece really

      ​@shanemcdaniels he was super nice, gave me a cig one time outside a show. Another time he talked with my friend's friend on the phone to calm her down because she was having a bad day, and he didn't even know her or my friend. Man I miss his raps. He was gone way too early. R.Eye.P

    @420gzuz Год назад

    dude the final verse on chemical burns, by sadistik, was probably the last verse he recorded, and the lyrics just get more and more haunting, from the first listen in, when heard from the perspective that it was a swan song that remained unheard until a few years later...
