    This documentary has a lot more content which has more aspects of Rhymesayers including more eyedea with abilities and many stories from there collective, also it includes the full 30 minute freestyle from Eyedea/Felipe. I if remember correctly they just freestyle for fun or practice and this time recording was allowed/welcomed.
    For more info on the documentary and how to get it go to: www.overgreenla...
    For Eyedea merchandise/music/information/stories go to: www.micheallars...
    To see posts on all of Eyedea's work and life and involvement with other people check out his and abilites facebook which is run by Eyedea's mother Kathy Averill then go to: / eyedeaandabilities
    Download the freestyle here: www.megaupload....
    it's mainly to be able to convert for other viewing such as ipods in which I would use www.videora.com
    Recorded December 2003 by the way.

    I was actually at Fifth Element while this was being shot. I was picking up my To The Break of Dawn pack for donating to the local radio station from the RSE Pledge Drive. There was such an energy in the room, as there always was when Eyedea performed. Really glad this footage exists.
    Also, I can vouch that 'Hip-Hop Below Zero' is an outstanding documentary. Absolutely worth your money, I reviewed it for LA Weekly a few months back.

      Sad they closed that store, they always treated their people right. I went there day after soundset before leaving town an everyone I was with spent like $100 there. Dude at the register asked why I wasn't getting anything. Told him I blew my money at soundset. So he sent me home with several free albums and some left over promotional merch from the festival.

    Like Abilities I'd try to spit flows when drunk at parties....and you find out soon who is regurgitating the same basic garbage the instant they lose their flow. To me not every freestyle of Eyes sounds spectacular. But to me it is spectacular that he doesn't seem to use any memorized rhymes. instead he ambitiously attempts to explain himself and other complex things without reservation. Pretty dang special that kid.

    R.I.P. EYEDEA. This guy was amazing. Was never a big fan of his albums but amazing freestyle artist. Check the wake up show with slug. One of the best genuine freestyle videos on RUclips, over 8 mins of the most entertaining freestyles you will ever watch. I'm gonna miss him.

    God damnit... I love that this exists and was shared... But dammit man! Mr. Larsen was a poet, sage, and prophet in an age that has no appreciation for any of those... People like to use the "ahead of his time" cliche, but Eyedea wasn't... He was void and transcendent of; that is to say, he was timeless and spoke of transcendental realities... Esoterically of course. Because otherwise the universal crunch would have happened already. BMMMMPPPPSSHHHHHPPPWWWWWAAAAMMMMPPPPOOOOOBOOOOOMMM!

    well put, good sir.
    I always say to my friends that if he were born in another day & age he'd be revered as an immensely innovative artist, poet, and philosopher.
    instead, he was born this day & age in America; so he's underrated, underappreciated, and overdosed.

      for real, back in high school my boy weasel turned me onto some good underground type hip hop, Deltron 3030, Atmosphere, Heiroglyphics and I discovered E&A playing THPS4 and hearing big shots. hopped onto lime wire and looked for everything off first born but back then u couldn't really find whole albums online and the subject matter and beats are so genius and tripped out of some of the songs that I couldn't fully appreciate it. also couldn't get my friends to listen to E&A everyone was stuck on G Unit, Eminem and Lil Wayne so over the years I kind of lost track of E&A, would pop in the E&A album from time to time but went different directions. very thankful for RUclips to hear and watch all this Eyedea footage I would've never otherwise known existed. After relistening to First Born in its entirety I'd say Eyedea is the GOAT, no joke... Tupac, Nas, Tech N9ne, Eminem, Del the Funky Homosapien, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Jay Electronica, UGK, Too Short, SPMex DJ Screw and the whole SUC are all dope in their own way but idk man... I think Eyedea has them all beat. I would compare him lyrically to a Bob Dylan.

    @ThePath505 "DJ Abilities is well known in the Midwest for being one of the best battle DJs in the local scene, having won both the 1999 and 2001 DMC Regional championships. He is also recognized as a talented producer. He and Eyedea were noted, above all, for their ability to interact in live on stage performances, as well as on record.[2]
    DJ Abilities served for some time as Atmosphere's backup/tour DJ, but chose to work more with the Eyedea-Abilities duo."
