- From 1994 Album: "6 Feet Deep".....
Gravediggaz was a hardcore rap group from New York City, well-known for its dark sense of humor and abrasive, menacing soundscapes. The group was formed in 1994 and was effectively a supergroup, bringing together Prince Paul (formerly producer with De La Soul and Stetsasonic), Frukwan from Stetsasonic, Too Poetic from the Brothers Grym, and RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan (which at the time of Gravediggaz' formation had only just released its first album). The group is widely credited as being one of the most influential and pioneering groups in the small hip-hop subgenre of horrorcore. The group's first album was originally titled Niggamortis; however, the potentially risqué title was changed to 6 Feet Deep for the American market (European versions of the album retained the original title, and also included the bonus track "Pass The Shovel"). Released on August 9 1994, 6 Feet Deep was a mix of black humor, cartoonish violence reminiscent of the Geto Boys, esoteric references to the Nation of Gods and Earths, and some of Paul's darkest production. The four members adopted Gravedigga alter egos for their work with the group: The RZA became RZArecta, Poetic became the Grym Reaper, Prince Paul became the Undertaker, and Frukwan became the Gatekeeper and rex. The three rapping members (without Prince Paul) released a collaborative EP titled "The Hell EP" with UK trip hop artist Tricky in 1995. The second full-length Gravediggaz album, The Pick, the Sickle and the Shovel, released in 1997, was less oriented to humor and more to social and political issues than 6 Feet Deep, and used calmer and more conventional production. Prince Paul played a considerably smaller role in the making of this album, with many of the production duties now taken care of by RZA and his Wu-Tang associates (including True Master and 4th Disciple). Poetic finally succumbed to cancer in July 2001. Frukwan stated in an interview not long after Poetic's death that a new album using leftover Poetic material would be released.[1] The album Nightmare in A-Minor, the third for Gravediggaz, was released independently in 2001 and only featured two of the original members, Poetic and Frukwan. This album was their darkest work yet, including many references to Poetic's struggle with colon cancer with a focus on the more apocalyptic themes of the teachings of the Five Percent Nation. Although RZA did not take part in the making of the album, some Wu-Tang Clan affiliates such as 4th Disciple, True Master and Beretta 9 were involved. The album was mostly produced by Poetic and Frukwan themselves. A slighty different version of the album (minus the song "Better Wake Up") was released to widespread critical acclaim in 2002. Gravediggaz would split up later that year. In 2003 Frukwan released his debut solo album, Life.

I definitely want to see a Gravediggaz episode in Season 3 of Wu-Tang: An American Saga
fr fr☠️ 🎯
real talk!!
Well all of us fans need to be blowin up RZA's social media page/putting together a petition so this can reach out to him and happen.
Cause i been sayin that for the longest that Gravediggaz need to be in Wu Tang: American Saga and i truly believe they should bring back Jorge Lendeborg Jr. To portray Poetic.
This predates wu-tang. This was rakeem transitioning to rza era. This should have took place during season one if it was going to be in the show
I said the same thing i wanna see gravediggaz
god damn rza immediately brings the hype
All day
I believe you'll find that he brings more ruckus than hype
@Un Redacted Gravediggaz way different than LOTUG
That's the old Rza. He was wild.
Disciple of The Way RZA went from an uncaged warrior (1992-1995) to a militant soldier (1996- ).
Prince Paul absolutely killed it with these beats
Agreed, but you have to think RZA had a lot of influence considering how much production work he put in all the Wu-Tang oriented releases.
@@jimmyMNSTR_911 On the first album, Paul produced 11 tracks and Rza produced 3. The original concept of Gravediggaz was Paul's creation.
@@jimmyMNSTR_911
RZA literally learned production during this album from Prince Paul
@@stevend.bumgarner6134 He learned things from being around Paul during that time, but Rza had already started making beats when Gravediggaz formed.
ODB should have been on the Gravediggaz lineup.
This is where rza laid down the sharpest most evil bars in his career.
E M lol
The RZArector=RZA's Dark Side
Agree about the RZA, disagree about ODB.
Odb would of killed this beat no doubt
I can't believe I've been listening to Gravediggaz for 25 years and this is the first time I've ever thought of ODB sliding into the group. Wow.
RZA is amazing. He dominates a majority of the tracks he’s on.
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!!
I'm back!
rza kills it
N0zix420
Then he Rzarects it only to kill it again
This HORRORCORE sound can’t NEVER be duplicated,replicated,or originated‼️💪🏽
why?
Getto Boyz and Three 6 Mafia mastered it too
Everything has been originated at some point matey
It's gone. A moment in History. It's like saying bring back the 40s
It's a sample
So it's already originated. Jagger the dagger
Hiphop needs this now more than ever. Scared the shit out of the mental dead and wake them up to reality.
No hope for 85 percent of the masses (them asses)
Reality THAT IS !!!
Old school all the way !!!
Thsts why this new generations fucked
Rocky Montana *You would
Gravediggaz is one of the most under appreciated rap super groups in HIP HOP. You got Rza from Wu tang, Prince Paul and Frukwan from Stestasonic and Too Poetic.
2:06 how RZA fades into the song and kills it.
I love that part! Only real hip hop heads peep the significance!!
Big facts!!
And the protect ya neck intro he low key throws in there is dope too
Soo vv 😴 SADENESS ENYS ITS PAT ANT NASA
Get it 💪
Rip POETIC 😢
Rip my uncle 💔
He lives on through his family 👌🏼💯
@@rahum2012 he's your uncle?
@@rahum2012 that's crazy g I'm sorry to hear how was he like as a person ?
I have tried researching information but haven’t found much... They should do a documentary on Poetic’s life
one the most hypnotic beats in all of hip hop
That's why you have to ignore these so-called list of worst rappers. They put RZA as #2 worst rappers of all time?! Madness...
Classic Gravediggaz! 🔥🔥🔥
Wtf ?! Worst? His verse in Triumph 😳 incredible
@@RaidersDnB idk about triumph, protect ya neck, tearz and 4th chamber tho 😮💨
Who did?! LMFAO
He is far from worst wtf
Who tf said this. Invalid as fuck
I remember spotting Poetic at Busch Gardens Williamsburg Va. Him and his girl was in an arcade. My man Poetic had this huuge Gravediggazz chain. I was like, theres no way im looking at a Gravedigga. Grym Reap at that. I kept looking and looking. He eventually saw me staring. Soon as i confirmed it was Grym, he just had this grin left the game he was playing, and said " Peace God!" Cat was like my height. 5"3. Very humble brother. We chopped it up then he signed a napkin i had. (P)roper (E)ducation (A)lways (C)orrects (E)rrors!! Wont ever forget that day! Return In Power Poetic. PEACE TO THE GODS!
Horror core... it was scary to the softies...Then on the second album.. The 5% teachings scared the shit out the mentally dead.
SDS Overfiend Death is inevitable. You got that right. Big Ups!!!
TheSteadyGrounds Facts!!! Blessings King!
+SDS Overfiend Sorry to be nosy here, but I'm really curious, how does this song reflect 5% teachings?
+Dylan O'Brien he said the second album I believe.
Donovan O. Thanks. I'll be sure to check that one out. I loved their first album.
RZA coming up with his beats and rhymes off of that Dust. He changed the rap world. For the short time he had this project was so raw and fresh. Their show was so intense
Ha, remember him mentioning that on Rhyme and reason lol smokin dust blunts, living life fast lol
Pretty sure Prince Paul made this beat.
@@ChiefRxcka Yep - Prince Paul made the majority of the beats on this album!
Used to own this album on cassette, haha showing my age. Still sounds epic. 90's Hip hop still better than half the shit out today.
Not just half,everything out today is trash!!!!🐂💩🗑
ALL*
better than ALL the shit out today...without a single exception!not ONE!
Arkhitektz kinda a reach don’t you think
buzz tone this era is supreme to any new hip hop fa sho
@Rap Life yeah... Its called the soft bigotry of low expectations. Any retard who manages to string together a semi cohesive sentence would look like a fuckin GOD next to soulja boy or some shit like that
ODB would've murdered this track #Realtalk
Yesss
The Infamous Trini_Don Nope. He was a weak ass rapper.
Says the wanna-be culture vulture.... 🐂💩🗑🐌
O.D.B woulda Killed this Jawn 4 - Real!!!! 💯🔥💀👻
H0RD4K-SK3LET0R MUMM'R4-MEG4TR0N ODB was a psycho.he was mentally ill. He was the weakest Shit in wutang.
I love this hardcore Grimey hip hop.
Real Horrorcore. Not that whiteboi shit. Heltah skeltah too
E M lol heltah skeltah was not horrorcore at all. What makes you say that? The name? Flatlinerz were another horrorcore group if we can call it a genre at all
@@ZBR_ProXPyou’re right they’re Hardcore hip hop not Horrorcore
@@rickylovesyou “And you walk, but I still follow like a hawk
Just to spite you and your racist thoughts!”

Man this track still underground in 2021! King Rza
I never heard this song before. Gravediggaz spits fire.
In my house in 2021, Gravediggaz still pumps the vibe.
Rza had one of the most unique voices in hip hop
Damn Grym kills it with that verse the structure/tempo toward the middle is just insane.
00:46
"I manifest my name and the reason I came in the first place
Words shake your brain just like an earthquake
A lot of people admit that I am raw
I cover my ass like a V-I-M, store
My jaws are real wicked like Dahmer
A whole alma mater of niggas is like a meal ticket"
It's Nowhere To Run To Baby, It's Nowhere To Hide!!!!!
It's Nowhere To Run To Baby, You Betta Stay Inside!!!!
🎯
My thoughts EXACTLY!
0:04 when the beat starts and the Gravediggaz show up, god how can you not get chills?
These guys dropped 2 amazing albums that don’t get talked about much. Sonically 6 feet deep is in a category by itself. Incredible 👊👊
There is a 3rd Gravediggaz album called Nightmare In A Minor. Released around 2001 but only features Poetic/Grym Reaper and Frukwan/Gatekeeper. RZA and Prince Paul were not involved in it, but it was still hard hittin.
I’ve said time and time again. On a good system, this album sounds as good if not better sonically than any album I’ve ever heard. To this day, I slap it in my Chrysler with Boston Acoustics, and it is beautiful. A true masterpiece
R.I.P. Too Poetic/Grym Reaper
This album is just amazing, RZA's best vocals imo!!
This is raw old school hip hop miss it, and as you can see Rza started that trend with the fang grills not southern rappers
Yeah him and Meth came out with that first
What? Most southern guys wear diamonds or golds no fangs
John Pratt 🤣🤦🏽♂️
Lmao ppl been rocking them junts since the 80's in the South. Foh.
Really? Who cares?
This is the first record that really changed my limited musical perspective and sparked an obsession with hip hop.
Its 2019, just checkin in with some og's
I was born in 2000
We here
4holePatriot I’m just saying anybody can listen to this music. Not just old heads like you
4holePatriot I already listen to music that predates this...and once again the comment is pointless because niggas beside “OG’s” listen to this music...old bitch. How about you go push some daisy’s
Imagine arguing on RUclips on a Golden Era video
This video is still absolutely one of the best visuals in Hip Hop!!! Top notch Horror aesthetics!! Gravediggaz executed the Horrorcore sound so effortlessly!!! RZA, Frukwan, Too Poetic(Rest In Power) with Prince Paul on the prod(One of the best to ever do it) CLASSIC!!!
They are all great, but damn rza is too fucking dope
Top 5 hip hop album all time for me.
Seriously slept on, one of my all time favorite albums regardless of genre.
I remember buying this album on cassette in1992 at my local Phar-Mor Superstore !!!
Shawn Evans it came out in 94
Amen

The video is amazing. It’s about freeing their own kind who is in mental slavery running from the key that’ll free him.
" This is Hip Hop " .......
truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Can't mess with a Jagger The Dagger sample! I was lucky enough to see The Gravediggaz at Rock City in Nottingham, 1994. Fruitkwan passed a bottle of champers plastered with the group's stickers--and he gave it to me first! One of my proudest moments. Fucking great performance as well. Dope.
I remember when dudes were getting stuck up and shot for those fang fronts.
Yup, back when they were called fronts instead of grillz.
Rza is the greatest producer in hip hop history not even close
One of the best rap groups of all time! Both albums are classics
Anything RZA touches is ridiculously amazing...
Anyone catch that, what I think it was anyway, at 2:05 a little Wu Tang sample and RZA says "ah, syke"
Lol if I'm right, that is just wonderful.
* *Psych* ... Don't know what I was thinking when I originally wrote this comment, but I guess I forgot how to spell.
He says
"its like, attacking attacking attacking attacking"
Horror core 90's hip hop still steel living it
This album is in my Top 3 of all Wu albums! Straight 🔥
I love this rzarector character I think these are his best verses !
Love the energy these dudes put into every jam. Compare them to artists these days who sound like they've smoked 100 blunts and mumble their way, stumbling toward something that almost rhymes.
Remember when TI rhymed Mansion with Wiscansin though? Lol.
i like both styles there’s some pretty unique and dope stuff ppl do nowadays you just gotta look on soundcloud and dig thru there.
earl sweatshirt molasses is sick. rza produced that. earl sounds like hes a hit away from falling asleep lol.
This is dope! RIP to Poetic/Grym Reaper. I'd like to see this group back together somehow.
i don't know why, i'm obsses with this haunting beats 🤯
This beat is 🔥
Nowhere to Run Classic Hip Hop Gravediggaz 💯💯💎
Rip too poetic.
That flow is unforgettable
I miss these classic Prince Paul projects, his albums always had a theme or told a story and flowed into each track.
Just realized that this is the beat from the interludes on the first Tribe album.
+Ryan Colethat's just one of many who have used the sample
Eugene McDaniels - "Jagger the Dagger"
@@briankerogoi4798 using the beat as an interlude was very unique back then imo
It was used in black Sunday by organized konfusion
PEOPLES INSTINCTIVE TRAVELS AND THE PATHS OF RHYTHM, CIRCA 1990.
Whoa. Pure genius, and for once the video is as cool as the song.
Bought this on cassette when first realesed, blasting on my Walkman through game boy headphones. Hip hop head from wales, uk.
Classic Album
RZA tore the shit outta his verses.
6 Feet Deep is a criminally underrated album.
the first 35 seconds is probably for me personally my favorite ever flow in the whole of hiphophistory. also, this track helped me through my first real breakup lol... good times..
One of the best rap songs ever made , change my mind!
This song is a hip hop classic and the start of the Horrorcore genre which got popular with artists like ICP,Necro ,Twiztid but these guys along with ,Flatlinerz ,Esham and so forth put it on the map .6 feet Deep is a must own album .
Esham was already doing this in 1990, when I was In high school in Detroit.
Hashim Moore talk to him he must not know about esham lol
Yes,Fathers in Horrorcore.
Flatlinerz were biters & wack at that. G.D.->O.G.'s!!!! 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
craig strachan whaaaaa if that’s what you think then you know absolutely nothing about the genre and maybe you should listen to brotha lynch hung season of the siccness this song and album is PG compared to that season of the sickness and besides eshams fist album came out way before this
The way these guys deliver their raps are some of the best I've heard
Rza verses contain nothing but overhand Knockout punches!!
A true 5 star album.
One of few on hip hop
Amazing energy
BEST RZA LYRICS EVER!
you are very false and I am ashamed by your knowledge of RZA lyricism.
12 jewels off the pick the sickle & the shovel 🔥🔥
one of the best songs i've ever heard. the last minute of it drove me to overcome difficult circumstances b/c it got me so fired up!
the music the fashion the video ist all gold
Remember being a kid in the 90’s watching all the underground videos on the box channel 13 videos like this take me back to them times
I forgot how tight this track was. Great flip of the A Tribe Called Quest sample that was used for the skits.
i have been listening to this for so many years and it still is one of the best ..
The way RZA rhymes in this track (and album) is TRUE RZA. He was so manic and menacing, but then he devolved into that sleepy, calm, boring, elmer fudd style around 1997, and made me sad. I miss the old RZA.
@Je Je fax
Another underated rza track has to be tragedy
When the pick. Axe. Shovel. Came out he did have that monotone flow. I was bummed too.
@@TheRayvolution his flow and rhymes got better by that album tho... his verse on Dangerous Mindz is 🔥🔥🔥 Rza always reminded me of the dude in the kung fu movies with the long white beard that just beat up all the students with one hand behind his back
@@TheRayvolution you talking about Gravediggaz 2nd Album: The Pick, The Sickle And The Shovel? That was a good album
one of underground anthems
Damn! Rza was definitely predicting Coronavirus 25 years ago!! Because there ain't no hiding place down here! #FACTS!! Those Gravediggaz hockey Jerseys were sick like cancer! Dope Throwback CUT! Rap City Summer 1994!! Good Times!!
This is another classic I played for years, salute to the Gravediggaz!
They were such an amazing combination! The Fantastic Four of Hip Hop. They proved dope lyrics and flow on a dope beat can jump across genres and still WIN!!!
Gravediggaz in the mx ,one of the Hip Hop greatest shotz !!!
respect to this incredible crew ,still in power in 2022 !!!
power vibe!!!! respect !!
Thanks to the great Shaolin RZA for his unbelieveables productionz, high dope buddy !!
Good Vibes!!

This better be in season 2 of Wu Tang on Hulu 👐🏽
Damn I haven’t heard this since I was kid! 90’s baby. Man, talk about nostalgia with my big bro playing this.
Prince Paul the evil genius
no tune starts like this ever ....so good
nerd
I still love this track! Dope beat and MC's that actually know the art of being an MC! Why are there so many horrible "rappers" that are popular now?
Tha alluminatti
Because people are dumb deaf and blind
RZAs second verse is hard.
Saying this track is 🔥🔥🔥🔥is an understatement!
this album is solid gold
Rza the most underrated MC to ever exist a lyrical god 👐👐👐👐
There really is nowhere to run or nowhere to hide may the Lord be with you
Wonderful hiphop track and a brilliant crossover at 1:56 to 2:12 started with blockparty scratching..
This uses the same base as 'Black Sunday' by Organized Konfusion, another great track
Yooo I was going to write this NOW ahahaah
The crazy, maniac, yo, lunatic
I circle like a shark when the fresh blood drips
shieeeeeee🔥✌
RZA the mastermind behind WU and all the classic productions of WU members and some others.
Rip poetic
(RIP POETIC) (RIP ODB) (RIP Doc Doom ) WU TANG FOREVER
RIP Chip Banks (AMERICAN CREAM TEAM)
RZA didnt even visited him in death bed. Music industry is all about money.
+veekay rza lost his mom shortly before this. allot of death around him.. he was shook
@@oblivion_007poetic was my uncle, im rahum K Berkeley his legacy still resonates in our family
Why cant music still sound like this?
The vampire teeth grills are iconic
So smooth! I love cruisin through the city with the CD playing all the way through!
2:06 RZA still gives reference of "Wu-Tang" here😂
Prince Paul went in on production on this album and RZA too
Still one of RZA's best verses. Both of them...
Everything is this track is just right. Some of Prince Paul's best work!
“Me being wack is like naps on Kojack…” 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Love this song, love this Album! Still have it on CD
