Music video by Earl Sweatshirt performing Grief. (C) 2015 Tan Cressida, under exclusive license to Columbia Records, a Division of Sony Music Entertainment
Earl Sweatshirt is a genre of music
He legit legit really is
Facts.
yea he hip hop
If u listen to artists like Mike, MAVI, Medhane, Ovrkast you’ll hear the sound that Earl pioneered
Straight up 🌚
This song feels like a cold hug
a hug that feels like a threat by someone who says "thats not a threat thats a promise"
Yo comment made my night, I just got kicked out of my house. What a shitty night. Fr though this shit made me laugh even with the way this shitty world turns
this
this is the best way to describe it
@@OinkHD u ok
Y'all don't have to comment "Tyler got happier earl got sadder" on every earl video goddam we get it
justin a fax
it's flip flopped now homie
woooosshh
daniel Erebete ? That doesn’t even apply to his comment
@@mywifetookthekids1923 wooooosshhh
You know the year’s been a struggle when this was your most played song on Spotify
Fergus Pitcher yeah, actually lmao
Brother, it was 2018...
You know somethings up when you listening to earl sweatshirt a whole lot
Abhibhav Sharma such a trash year
jesus christ you literally just described my spotify
I don't act hard, I'm a hard act to follow
"I was makin' waves, you was surfin' in em"
OMG EARL IS SO FUCKING UNDER-RATED
"All I See is snakes in the eyes of these niggas"
+coughdropper I didn't catch it on my first listen but that's a double entendre
Drumma Dre Earl's songs require multiple listens to really be able to catch those nuances. Not many lyricists are like him
+Isaiah Simmons but earl isn't underrated tho
earl shows us that even with money and fame happiness isn't promised with it. I think our worst enemy is our own mind.
yea, and its deep..
Just don't get addicted to xanax and you should be good.
sL00t if only it were that simple...
Dominic S. at the same time its our only salvation. its a paradox in itself. happiness is a lie, there is only joy and grief.
Love yourz
Is it just me or does this beat make you think your speakers are messed up? It's fucking with me.
GeminiEye1 that's the point, he mixed it a certain way so that it would sound kind of ugly
GeminiEye1 Sounds like 28 kbs lol....
切腹 Kooi lol it's driving me insane, feels like listening on 144p
because this beat is made of samples that are slowed down to the limit so they sound dirty and hazy, earl like this kind of sound I think
Joe Viberton
no he just exported this shit at a super low bitrate so it would have all these poppy and crackling effects
This beat is so oppressive. Like genuinely makes me feel uncomfortable. Some Silent Hill levels
funny because the sample that's slowed down is a chill ass erykah badu song
you must got to be the most sober person right ? serious question, because this song be having me zoned when im high this beat is heat lmao
this beat has always calmed me and given me warmth
Bro y u scared of a beat
Weird how such a dark beat offers comfort to some.
Earl got me through some shit.
It takes guts to make tracks like this. This is such a raw look at what it feels like to be depressed, and it's hard to expose yourself like that to millions of people. But yeah, these are the sorts of songs that stick with people for years, and are remembered for generations.
+psychotrip your so right dude
I'm using his music now man this bullshit they call life is a bitch sometimes
Tru
charmyoe if you like this you should check out my you wont regret it 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎙🎤
Being an individual who has spent most of his life in loneliness and depression, with severe anxiety and panic disorders; I always seem to enjoy this 'solace' type of music more, even though all it does is rub salt to the wound in a certain way, I feel like I can easily connect and relate to it more than other kinds of music. This one song in particular has been my favorite of all year, for some reason it sort of calms me down and makes me think trough a lot of stuff happening in my life, it's a perfect song to get high to.
Have you heard Earls song "Solace"?
Couldn't agree with you anymore
Have you heard "Tiny Tortures" by Flying Lotus? You won't regret it
quit being a bitch lmao jk
+Night Wolf did the useless doctor recommend xanax?
I'm not depressed or suicidal this shit is just lyrical genius this is some real shit that alot of people won't listen to because they associate it with depression but you feel these feelings when your not having bad moments
couldn't have explained it better
exactly, we all human that way
if you think this song doesn't come from a place of darkness tho, you're just wrong.
sounds like ur scrambling for xanax like me
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I know y’all still bumping this to the day
yup
On fucking gang
ya god damn right bruh
Yes sir
Facts
earl sweat always been more artistically talented than people even realize.
He's a fucking prodigy. Watching his mind express itself is a fucking journey.

Rabid Rabbit duhh
Rabid Rabbit 7 hate you
people always say that, and forget that frank was a full-fledged OF artist. Earl is hands down my favorite rapper...for the past 5+ years..but frank has been my favorite artist since like 2011..easily. overall, I'd take frank different categories though.
this songs sounds different when ur struglin
real shit
Marcus Basina fr
damn...real shit!
u good bro?
Marcus Basina word, i been tryna push dis dooky out fo a minute
My physics teacher showed us this video and explained to us how we all produce a glow. He showed how molten metal creates a visible light glow and how humans create this infrared light glow in the video. He told us everything has a glow and the glow's wavelength is relative to temperature (molten metal is so hot the glow seeps into visible light)
This is why I love Physics
Dee Duncker your physics teacher sounds kick ass
Did everyone laugh when the heard the word nigga
Your physics teacher is cultured
Your teacher sounds cool af
This song really hit after 8pm
I'm listening at 8:01💀
Go to bed or mom will be mad you're up past your bedtime

I just want my time and my mind intact
When they both gone you can't buy 'em back

Shit hit me HARD man
dang
God
Alex Furnas I listened to this song since it first dropped and I just now felt that
Lie
easily one of the most underrated rappers of this generation. hes easily a top 10 rapper of this generation and people still are sleeping on him smh
thanks for clarifying that. i could not agree more
Idk I see a lot of Top 20 current rappers lists than put earl somewhere in there, plus you got k-dot praising earl on twitter. people just aren't buying his music I guess.

yeah Earl is actually super underrated lyrically imo
Andy Sutherland TRUE
Earl be going hard can imagine him and flying Lotus writing together
Already happened
Between friends and between villains look em up man
I have a feeling someone in Flylo's camp made this beat.
Earl, flylo, and tyler are the voice of captain murphy.
Justin Carter No nigga,FlyLo is captain murphy do your research.
This video is so poetic, during the last 30 seconds he goes through 2 stages and goes through depression when the instrumental starts, throughout most of the song he talks about the fake people of his life, most likely venting his anger, right before the instrumental he states “I just want my time and my mind intact, when they both gone, you can’t buy em back” which is bargaining, the third stage of grief, throughout the instrumental he looks more accustomed to it, AKA acceptance, meaning through only a minute and 30 seconds he showed and went through 4 stages, not to mention how there are 5 drummers, each drummer meaning a stage of grief, no one can explain how they feel like Earl can
bro dis comment underrated as fuck
Earl is the modern Edgar Allan Poe
Bro graduated from Yale god damn
What do you think the symbolism behind one drumset burning?
Stellar analysis, my dude 🙏🏻
I saw a literal sweatshirt with the words EARL on it and his face and I was so confused. I looked up earl sweatshirt. And this popped up. Good stuff!!! His music is so unique and depressing in a good way. I love it
Gigi Codi that is amazing lol
Marc Dunn tragic bro, tragic
Marc Dunn srry 4 the loss
Gigi Codi I got the shirt, and man I love that shirt.
+Marc Dunn my condolences
Earl comforted me cause I knew I wasn’t alone, and I’m happy I can come back reflect on my life and realize I’m a lot stronger than ever.
So if you reading this you’re not alone, We gon be alright, just hold on✊🏾
✊🏻
Same bullshit the voices in my head say. Good for you famo, but we all take different paths.

Thank you
Man I remember when I Don't Like Shit first dropped, I was 14 and life was rough especially at home. It was this song in particular though that I was genuinely scared to listen to after hearing it once, just because it opened me up to all the hatred and hopelessness I had in my heart at the time. Now I'm all grown but i still remember how deep that shit was for me
This song definitely has one of the darkest instrumental I’ve ever heard.
Earls music is always deep. But especially deep when you're down. Hope you are doing better now
I feel you bro...for real.
Fuckin same

adil mahmood yeah
This video is painfully ironic. The way I interpreted it was: he was lonely and down and out. And also surrounded by rats and snakes. He felt paranoid. He finally got the courage to break out his shell when he seen this beautiful chick. He followed her to be disappointed by her and his inner demons. In the end he was left alone again with his only sense of solace, weed. In the end he's surrounded by a band featuring his own self as the opening act to another disappointment. Dope video for a dope song!. Addiction is real
weed is epic
Savage Rabbit Damn this is powerful
not to mention it was shot in negative, signifying his whole mental state is in a negative condition
Savage Rabbit Relate two hundo. Gotta flush the lye down your system to stay sane. Or poppin’ pams it’s gettin’ tuff mane.
He's talkin bout Tyler and his old buddies and they would've neva been born if it waznt for... LISTEN.

What song?

Normally beats like this are meant to make you feel uneasy and anxious. Personally they make me feel at peace, I can lay in my room in the dark with these on repeat

This will forever be the darkest and grimmest song until earl released Peanut
the first time i listened to peanut on acid, i kid you not i went to a very very dark place that i’ve never been back to
solace probably worse at least sonically
@@tannerstauffer3980 glad you haven’t been back to that place, proud of you
@Ana Moreno no homo
@Ana Moreno I'm saying no homo on my part G
I am so glad Earl is in a healthier mental space now and I am grateful he shared this part of his journey with us. This album released in my last full year of active addiction/depression during my darkest times. I felt a sense of comfort knowing there was at least one other person who felt the way I did. God speed Earl, we love you.
The intro to this is so good, like a demon waking up.
Rayndom Nayme perfect description
This is one of the most realest depictions i ever heard of one of the dopest songs i ever heard TRIPPY i know LOL
Funny enough earl sampled "i stay woke" by Erykah but slowed down heavy, so youre not far off.

I've been wondering that too😕
Bagels have nice taste
This is the same man that made Pigeons.
And that's tight too.
Dre and east is a fantastic song
DOUBLE BACK WHEN YOU GOT IT MADE NO FAT IN COLLARD GREENS SOME SHIT DUU DUU DUU DUU
You know this is also the same person that made the earl mixtape and doris you must just be finding out about him if you referenced east to be his quote bad song which wasn't bad lyrically just the beat was
Just want my time and mind intact, when they both gone you can't buy em back..
favorite lyric for me. super powerful way to end a song.

I bump this shit even when I'm not depressed
You mean sad, not depressed
+N A does it matter
Oh yeah yeah
@@BlastVerses yes it does matter. depression is a mental disorder and sadness is an emotion. depression is something that some of us, including me, deal with and struggle with constantly, not something for others to identify with whenever they feel the slightest bit sad.
Julian Cleveland Depression has more than one meaning, you cant just link it to clinically... it has more than one definition and one of those definitions is being into deep sadness
“Step into the shadows we can talk about addiction where its harmful where you’re going and a part of you that knows it doesn’t give a fuck pardon me for going into details” STRAIGHT CHILLS he literally depicted a conscious addiction in a nutshell. This man is literally therapeutic and relatable.
I thought I was the only one. This shit literally had me stop what I was doing and just think when that line came.
This song is what keeps me alive. Depression is hard to get rid of.

@@ahsuraht208 i appreciate it a lot, after 2 years I thought about giving life a second chance and so far I’m happy how it came out

Keep it up you can do it we're all w you
You should try shrooms
I think the video starts with him at party where he let's his mind wander. But he quickly realises that despite being surrounded by all these people and with friends, he feels entirely alone. His emptiness leads him to drugs and chasing after women. Which is why they show the ass and legs walking away but nothing else. The mice that seem to meet up and then go different ways can symbolise many things, including his enemies plotting against him (this could be why he shows two guys meet up in between the scenes with the mice and the snake) or it could be his own conflicting thoughts and paranioa of being under attack (hence the snake on the couch approaching the camera/ mice) that he needs to be distracted from with things like...you guessed it, women. But the girl dives into water that looks like an abyss and comes up looking frightening. Forever caught in a perpetual loop of drug abuse and the desire to escape, he finally realises he is a prisoner of his own mind and because of this he can't trust his own instincts as we saw what happened to the woman in the pool. Leaving us to assume he either can't pursue the things he wants for whatever reason because there will always be this abyss between him and it, or that those things are not worth persuing at all. Then he's left with guys in masks playing instruments. I think these are the walls of his mind and he drowns out his loneliness and sorrow with music as he falls deeper into lunacy since the people playing the instruments look like they may be him in different forms. No longer is the abyss just in front of him, but he becomes engulfed in it as all scenery has completely vanished at This point. This whole thing may just be commentary on how fame has affected his life both psychologicaly and socially and how music has been the only thing allowing him to keep a firm grip on reality as the walls of his mind have been relentlessly reminded him that he is all of those things he sees in the video. This is just my take and opinion though so I may be completely wrong lol.
Also, snakes may be a reference to others in the industry.
Petah Runs the jewels wow
well said bro. well said.

strongmoon1 lol that too
#socialdistancing before it was cool. Earl was 5 years ahead of everyone else.
I was able to relate to this years before but last year I started going out,making friends and battling my anxiety and germophobia.I am back to this song and album now and it really hits home.Some of those lyrics are eye-openers while social distancing,when I don't even know what day it is anymore and I haven't seen another person in the flesh except my family members
I was thinking the same thing bro lol 🤣💯
Alex Alex Bro literally same shit been happening to me since 2017 and I recently started becoming social till this social distancing started and man this whole album hit me again with a whole nother meaning and shit made me think about what life different
@@Slytendencie At least we have the songs we had back then.It is not the first time we are isolated
As a misanthrope I resonate with Earl and his music helps me battle depression too
his head is a circus full of depressing dark thoughts while in reality he sitting alone in the house smoking this reminds me of anxiety..
4real bruh...
forreal man...
He went from cherry bomb, to bastard pt.2
+Dallas the leader he wasnt on cherry bomb
+ImApro I'm talking about he was happy whenever he was on Of (cherry bomb) and we he left it he sad/depressed (bastard)
This is brilliance, I feel bad for those who haven't recognized this genius.
let's be friends
im sorry, i just listened to his songs on autoplay . and said.. WHO DAFUQ IS DIS NIGGA!? and looked hup....its earl. ima a new fan now
Metal Mickey ha ha ha please
can you enjoy him more quietly and stop being so pretentious
zakan garbage
What makes this whole album so good, is that its real, honest thoughts and emotion. Not many artist today write like Earl, or Vince, or anyone else featured on the album. You can tell Earl doesn't front for his audience anymore, because its all for him. He creates music for himself, and puts it out just for the hell of it. This is a real ass rapper right here.
I'll come back to this album when I'm sad. I don't think I'll be able to enjoy this until I'm in a place similar to where he was at during the making of this. I think the main reason you see the Tyler and Earl split is because Tyler got happier, and Earl got sadder.
+RADubs i agree, completely, originally i think tyler was depressed as fuck , you can tell by bastard, and earl was somewhat happy, its like a complete fucking role reversal and it messed things
sad because of fame etc perhaps?
+omari oakley (Rebellious Nature) Sad because that's him. Some people are darker than others, and when you're affected by that level of depression (beyond what people call depression because something bad happenned, a harrowing, cyclical darkness that you cannot explain & are too afraid to face) it flares up in times. That's what I think happens when earl puts out tracks like this, and when you sink and let the times when it flares up control you it can lead to entire bodies of work like IDLSIDGO
WHAT IF EARL OR TYLER WAS ONE OF THESE NO PIC ACCOUNTS THAT COME AND COMMENT OUT OF NOWHERE JUST LOOKING AT HOW ALL YALL ACT....✌
joshua young early been known to make random accounts to upload unreleased music, who is to say he doesn't do the same thing with comments? You never know fam.
Best instrumental ever.
it really is, anyone know who produced it?
earl produced this whole album i believe
SpicyMC nope
Pretty much
+Iestyn Chiapelone earl made it but it was heavily influenced by gary wilsons youre too good to be true
cant believe this song is about to be 2 years old soon...feels like just yesterday i was grieving over how unfair life was and how i felt like i was living a life trapped in a prison i called my own head. depression was ass...i used to be one of those guys that made fun of people who where depressed and used to say they should man up and stop being ungrateful...oh the irony that was, but now that im normal, thx earl, for being the only artist i felt like i could actually relate to
depression is a serious disease. We should not laugh at the people who have it.
Respect man. Going through it myself. Grief is it. It sucks. Earl's music has saved me a little. He speaks truth and sees life through real eyes
odd future made my future this made me soooo awesome
negative vibe for what? the fuck nigga this 13 year old will beat yo ass
King Creepa cmon' man don't feed his negativity
Idlsidgo >some rap songs> Doris they are all masterpieces he is a genius, his music is my soul may God bless Earl sweatshirt

I'm guessing this video was filmed in thermography (?) and was then desaturated? Fucking powerful video nonetheless.
yes. that's what it appears to be. dope idea.

Yeah I think so, definitely looks like it but they must've done something besides desaturation.
+Trevor Philips I believe so, this shit is so sick though.
+Charlie Walker a lot of it does appear to be cgi lol
Listen to EARL, and then this.. Man the progress he's made is insane. Long live odd future.. But I prefer earl as an independent artists.
+JUKES THE KING earl has mentioned before that tyler tried to control the production of doris too much and make it into a tyler album and not let earl do his thing which is why he distanced himself from them
+jeremy smoke this is inaccurate
+jeremy smoke source nigga
+jeremy smoke source nigga
True
I personally believe Earl is now at the stage of making music which expresses his pure emotion. It's not going to sound perfect, it's not going to sound too appealing, but a song with this meaning behind it isn't meant to sound nice.
i think you need to look past the idea of it being music and more of it being art, stop looking for a song that's catchy and sounds good, and look into it more as a window into his life at this time. That's just me though, I ain't shit.
came back to this after a couple hours and shit's so surreal, earl coming at us with some suicidal shit like this man. looking at the creepy evil thumbnail and seeing the title just feels like a bad dream idk
TRUE AF. THANKGOD SOMEONE AGREES.
shut the fuck up this song is fire
Dank Smoke You're right, I didn't say I didn't like the song. You can't deny that it isn't a very "nice" sounding song though, is it? I really like it, it's one of my favourites from Earl since his first mixtape, if anything my comment is hyping up Earl's lyrical content and skills.
Wolf Eaars i personally think it sounds perfect, but that's my weird opinion. I listen to CLOUDDEAD a lot and i love this kind of lo-fi experimentalism. he's just growing into himself. sorry if i was rude
this hits different when youre dealing with shit you cant or dont want to face
It sure does. This whole album accompanied me with my depression as a teenager in high school and now that I'm in my 20s I keep coming face to face with shit that is difficult to confront and I always return to this somewhere in the back of my mind
@@novanebula8004 same. I re-listen to this song cause of the difficulties that came to my depression, anxiety, and feeling detrimental with suicidal thoughts
@@iamlabyrinthh Hang in there fam I know that shit is rough but do whatever you can do to get through it in a healthy way I know when we go through shit like this we have a tendency to lie to ourselves and say things will never get better but they will always get better we just have to truly want them to
@@novanebula8004 Thanks I really do appreciate that kind words of advice. And I'm getting better day by day though. It's been many years since I've contemplated it. This year I haven't felt it as much because of the medication I'm on that helps me fight those thoughts and feelings so things can be balanced out properly. Other than that, I haven't done anything self inducing to myself. Nor have I felt self inflicted to self harm or overdose or anything of the above. But I'm slowly getting better. I've had one instance where I felt like overdosing but the desire wasn't there to do it cause I didn't feel like ending it there leaving people who care about me with the same pain I felt if I choose to end my life by swallowing those pills. With today's society it's self provoking to see how many don't take people with depression and actual anxiety seriously. I only did self harm cause I felt I deserved the pain. But now I've learned from it and learning each day.
But again thank you and the same goes back to you in return. 💖🦋
I feel many of us ignored the fact that he was really expressing his feelings. We've seen too many people pass in all realms of music and this, as far as we know, could've been the end of him. Drug addiction and mental health is serious.
This song will stick with me for the rest of my life
baby girl nah biggie small suicidal thoughts
Earl's music is depressing in the coolest way possible.
I've been lookin for a way to describe this album and you just did it perfectly
thanks. guess this is why I find earl's stuff the easiest to relate to. just seems to fit the state of things.
Nick Pearson Just like how Tyler makes you feel like murdering people in the nicest way possible
Nick Pearson I kinda feel like he sheds light in the darkness that the world is, so as to not become oblivious of the darkness... but by exposing it, also exposes the weaknesses I sometimes hold (introspective a little) - my intentions always made clearer as to how I want to shed lightness in the world. Studying Psychology, after doing engineering, in an objective point of view I'm able to expose the weakness' it also holds. Some studies out there are just ridiculous! Always seeking the worst in people but not seeing the best. But with this piece of paper and sacrifice of a few years work, the world will look at me with their perspective of credibility so I can slowly and effectively shape the way it needs to be seen... acknowledge the dark... move forward to the light... create passion and spark interest for what the kiddies need... living a life in this world that is more meaningful. LIVING, LOVING & LIFING - a terminology that's widely recognised in many perspectives, but isn't ensued due to laziness that dark swallows up. There a few realities to life we need to recognize - we all know most but fail to act on them. I intend to make a difference like how Earl made a difference in mine. PEACE AND LOVE to his music!! Intention is reality and life is what you make it!
but I'm black? and so is earl?
Earl created not only one of the greatest pieces of art the genre ever produced with this, but one of the most dangerous. You can easily get trapped in darkness with this on repeat. It’s terrifyingly relatable. If you’re not careful, it’ll keep you trapped in grief.
true af
His lyrics are just pure captivation and power. its amazing how writing can be such an outlet.
I was in a different place last year, i didn't appreciate what earl was saying, but now, we really in our lone shit, everything been reaped from me nigga.

“I just want my time and my mind intact. Whey they both gone, you can’t buy em back” i love Earl so much

Catch myself randomly saying this around the house
Tyler got happier, Earl got sadder.

they are both going down hill on the happy scale. tyler can never truly be happy (from what he shows) and earl like trylers little bro.
+adamcar00 There's a lot of songs on this album where he talks about finding happiness. To me Earl and Tyler both make shit related to depression, it's just they have different ways of dealing with it. Honestly I think I like Earl's shit better because now all of a sudden Tyler is just like "you should be positive just cuz" and Earl's breaking it down and looking at both ways of viewing life.
Fuck that's true
earl was the best of OF

"Step into the shadows we can talk addiction" this line hits home. If you've never struggled with drugs or alcohol you honestly can't relate.
Yessir 🙌🏻 this and D.R.U.G.S by Ab-Soul
Facts
I was going to say from, "Step into the shadows we can talk addiction. When it's harmful where you going and the part of you that know it don't give a fuck" (idk what it's called...bar?) is actually fucking insane.
It's possibly the most succinct, yet eloquent way to describe addiction. Barely two sentences, and annnyybodyyy who has struggled with addiction will immediately know what's up.
@@bstewy_434 I still struggle I'm an alcoholic
"When it's harmful where you're going and the part of you that know it don't give a fuck"
This really is what addiction is
ughh that whole first verse 😩😩🔥
earl needs to make more tracks asap
I just made a track with a big Earl influence if you wanna check it out
its called Lo Fi Medicine Pt. 2 and its on this channel
Yo, it's a new song called Mirrors featuring Earl Sweatshirt. It's good dawg. Share the word.
+David Hester been out for a while man
check out 45 by earl sweatshirt
i agree and I want to see him do production with Kanye West
living in LA is hard when youre relatively known. cant go out normally, people always question why youre famous, why you arent as famous as others, and how the rest of your entourage is doing. tyler and earl are brothers, but tyler casts a bigger shadow fame wise. earl is dooms son lyrically and his legacy will endure because of that. tyler made sure all his people were on. but i dont think they all wanted that.
You might have just said the realest thing.
If they didn't want it they could stop rapping and move from LA. I mean most of them are pretty set financially if they are halfway smart with their money.
Michael Tate
I wouldn't say set, but I'm sure they're comfy
earl lives in new york
Earl and Tyler aren't brothers tho. At least biologically.
I haven't listened to this song in ages, it's helped me get through some rough times and still does. Thank you Earl 🖤
Faxx
Facts
I've done every drug ect shock treatment and since I was like six its had me with my neck to the floor hospitals more drugs ....heroin.....I'm on methadone now but still its ugly cold fingers around mg throat💜
I dont go outside prepandemic, lately Ive been panicking a lot
"Feeling like I'm stranded in a mob" describes my life the for the past 3 years.
So you're meaning to tell me, 2015 is brining us new Kendrick, Yeezy, Frank Ocean, Earl AND Tyler albums!? God damn, what have I done in life to be this blessed!?
This song was there when I was struggling bad with addiction. Some Rap Songs got me through recovery. His music evolves each album
What are the other songs, bro?
@@HarishBabuMi know i’m late but he was talking bout the album called “some rap songs” by earl
I'd give anything for Earl to rap on beats like this again, Brought out this extra aggression in his flow that made his lyrics hit even harder. Like I still enjoy what he's doing now, But IDLS is still my favorite album by Earl to this day, So dark and heavy, Every track just hits different.
i don’t think a lot of people understand how deep and crazy this song is. unbelievable talent.
Dealing with depression, having close friends disassociate with you because you're "too much" to deal with, this song is so comforting. Honestly, despite how bleak this song and the whole album is, it's comforting that pain and depression is valid even if everything seems fine on the outside. This song isn't just "emo rap" it's rap and music for the disillusioned in modern times, essentially a modern Hemingway or Faulkner for the people that feel left behind and lost in the modern times.
Social life is the first thing to go. I relate to the first bit you wrote, experienced that bare as a teenager. Probelm is we come on too strong sometimes, you learn to deal with it as you get older
@@aliasofanalias7448mans dealing with that now its crazy
The ending of the song is a sample of You Were Too Good To Be True by Gary Wilson.
Aint nobody listening to that part lol
.
+Bryan Hernandez smh
+Bryan Hernandez A lot of people actually
***** yoooooooooooooo captain murphy thoughhhhhhhhhhh
this song and video portrays the feeling of depression so perfectly
Idlsidgo seriously got me through rough times man. This album fuckin gets me. Honsetly my favorite project earl has dropped Dude was a sad boi before it was cool
"Step into the shadows, we can talk addiction. When it's harmful where you goin, and the part of you that know it, don't give a fuck"
Hard
Earl music makes me feel I can truly be myself and every time I listen to this album, I feel vulnerable and paralyzed and actually let the words dissolve me and the poet involve me in his feelings
I used to listen to this when i was deep into IVing heroin and meth. So weird to come back to it years later. Feels like a conversation with an old friend who i never met. Feels like...thank god i can see the light now.
I just listend to this for 50 mins straight. just walking around downtown. I think it's one of the best songs I've ever heard
[Hook]
Good grief, I been reaping what I sowed
Nigga, I ain't been outside in a minute
I been living what I wrote
And all I see is snakes in the eyes of these niggas
Mama taught me how to read 'em when I look
Miss me at the precinct getting booked
Fishy niggas stick to eating off of hooks
Say you eating but we see you getting cooked, nigga
[Verse 1]
I don't act hard, I'm a hard act to follow nigga
Like it or not, when it drop bet he gotta listen
Chasing dragons tryna make it happen on a mission
Step into the shadows, we can talk addiction
When it's harmful where you going
And the part of you that know it don't give a fuck
Pardon me for going into details, 3-7-6 was a brothel
We had females comin' every hour on the dot
And the shit sound like a gavel when it knock
Focus on my chatter, ain't as frantic as my thoughts
Lately I've been panicking a lot
Feelin' like I've been stranded in a mob
Scrambling for Xanax out a canister to pop
Never getting out of hand, steady handling my job
Time damaging my ties, who turned to get up
Get dude turned up in a quick
You circus niggas, you turning into tricks
I was making waves, you was surfing in 'em
Dealing with the stomach pains just from birthing niggas' shit
Cut the grass off the surface, pray the lawnmower blade
Catch the back of a serpent nigga's shit, bitch
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
I'm fleeting thoughts on a leash
For the moment, high as fuck
I've been alone in my shit for the longest
Snakes sliding in the street
Mama taught me how to not be like the
Bodies lying in them
Pigs, riding in 'em
I'm a target so it's hard to even eye me in 'em
If he ain't dying for me then I ain't riding with him
There's no time for that
Making sure my man wallet's straight like a collar
When you eyeing that
Thinking 'bout my grandmama, find a bottle
I'mma wallow when I lie in that
I just want my time and my mind intact
When they both gone you can't buy 'em back
OMG PEE PEE NAH
Yeh
Damn... when he's sitting on the couch and that snakes staring him down at 3:12. Real shit. He can't move from the sofa cause if he does he's afraid he'll get bit. I think that image symbolizes the name of the album best. You put all your trust into someone and then they turn out to be a dishonorable, betraying serpent. After it happens you don't like shit, and don't go outside anymore. You're just stuck sitting on the sofa keeping your eyes on the snake at all times so you don't get bit again.
This song means a lot to me
Chills everytime I listen man
1 year... 1 year... Still listening to this like it's the first time
I feel it
Preach it
I heard Kendricks album is fire, but i wasn't ready for this; even though I'm aware of his new album :0
Who cares?
Rembrandt You replied therefore, you do care -.-
Rembrandt and he's right
Rembrandt Ya bro can't deny it. Illuminati confirmed.
Rembrandt I win....
Man 2015 has been a great year for hip hop. Joey badass dropped B4.Da.$$ and that shit was dope, Kendrick Lamar dropped to pimp a butterfly which many claim is the best hip hop album dropped in the last 12 years, clear soul forces dropped fab five which imo is so far the best album of the year, Asap rocky dropped ALLA and even though it was Rocky's weakest album I still enjoyed it, Earl dropped this album and even tho it wasn't better than Doris it's nice to see him experiment with different things, tyler the creator dropped cherry bomb which was awesome. I look forward to the rest of 2015 this might be one of the strongest years for hip hop I'm siked for the underachievers upcoming album evermore
Well said dude. We still got Mac miller's new album which is gonna blow people away
Word man
B4DA$$ was trash
Foh
Still waiting kanyes ,kid cudis & drakes album too
No one has been able to replicate this style of music earl did with this song. The first day this song dropped I knew it was going to age like wine every year after it
I'll be revisiting this song for many years to come.
Check out Oblivion Access by Lil Ugly Mane, not the same style maybe, but definitely on the theme of Depression
Song so grimy i had to take a shower after listening to it.
***** oh shit...
Fuck, i actually screencapped that part and made an image out of it, how the fuck you get it.
ARE WE THE SAME PERSON?
IM FREAKIN OUT MAN
D:
Earl and Frankie are probably the best OF members, who agrees?
Geath Drips anyone's better than Tyler, I like Vince staples when he's with earl too
Tyler has some legit joints
Geath Drips I like mike g the most and Tyler the creator before earl
Geath Drips Earl, Tyler, Domo, Hodgy, Mike G. Not including Frank, he's on his own shit. Mike G could have been in front of Hodgy but he lacking the material. I only really fuck with the first 3 anyway and Frank of course
Frank ocean is part Odd Future, well from what I've seen
did earl download the drum beat from limewire
DEADDDDDD
w
its like that on purpose but fnny comment xd
Real af. Dope song but, come one, bruh! That's not a desirable effect....
JESUSSSSSSS
This song hits different when you really going through it. You feel every word hes saying …
I feel like earl understands depression a lot better than most rappers thanks for making dope music for us sad people
I like it because it doesn't make me feel worse, aka more sad, just, you now, relatable, "exactly" while listening/reading.
which dimension did he record this in
4th
7th
47th
im gonna need a definite answer
Definitely the upside down
