My apologies, Analysts and Chino XL fans. In a previous version of this video, I mistakenly reacted to the wrong verse on the song. I'm embarrassed and in no way meant any disrespect at all. Chino XL was a mic titan and my sincerest condolences to his family. Thank you to the Analyst that pointed it out. I apologize for my mistake.
I'm 43 now and have been rhyming since I was 13. The first time I really listened to Chino XL, I threw away my rhyme book. He inspired me to be smarter. I'm from the hood and my parents and teachers couldn't do that for me. I'm thinking the most high wanted to re vamp his spiritual text and make it rhyme and hit hard with punch lines. Can't wait to read that bible. RIP to the 1st Mensa representative from the hood. You inspired me to learn more and take those IQ tests..... "And every verse, ditto. My defeat you better have more blind folded faith than a kidnapped version of Biggie's widow, kiddo".
He died of heart failure might have been a whole host of reasons why generically and he had an enlarged heart but also might got the COVID 19 Jab years ago.
"I drink liquor, bench press while writing rhymes raw that means im raising the bar while raising the bar while raising the bar" One of my favorite lines by Chino XL
"Startin' drama with Chino, God forbid Auction my lyrics on eBay, that's God for bid" This bar has lived rent free in my head for like 15 years now smfh.
Chino is one of the best pens in the history of the game and he was also one of the coolest dudes you could ever meet. Super down to earth and incredibly humble. Had an insane amount of respect for Chi, great dude all around. We lost a good one.
People who arent aware of Chino XL's music. Do youreself a favor before you leave this eath to listen to his discography. You're goong to find many gems. R.I.P CHINO XL
Chino was a damn monster... no matter who he was on the track with, regardless of whether you felt he had the best verse on the song or not he always left a strong impression... always had at least 1 haymaker on every verse... Rhyme in Peace Chino XL🙏🏽
I just sent this song to my little nephew two days ago and told him specifically to pay attention to the last verse, Chino's, because it blew me away. Then Chino passes the next day. Such a loss. So grateful for what he gave us. Love to his family and friends. 💙
As an aspiring Hip Hop journalist for a now-defunct publication, I ran up on Chino at a record store in ATL in the late 90s. He agreed to an interview ON CAMERA on the spot! SUPER COOL dude. Mensa Mic titan! RIP the Art of Origin🤚
Lyrically on of the best spitters to ever bless a mic. Whether you loved him or hated him, his work and legacy are undeniable. He literally forced me to step up my vocabulary and I don't even rap. Flow, style, creativity and a force in the artform. Your impact will for ever be felt by those who seek it. Condolences to his family and friends.
One of the best out of my home state. Dude never had a wack verse, he always blew my mind with his lyrics and flow. I still can’t believe his niece is Lady London, I just found that out a couple days ago. RIP to the Puerto Rican Super Hero.
Man, I’ll forever remember listening to RICANStruction: The Black Rosary on a whim, I was literally just getting into hip-hop as a moody teen and seen the album on one of the many hip-hop related websites I used to frequent. Little Man hit like a goddamn truck. What a powerful, powerful track. Oh, and Buried in Vocabulary was a complete mindfuck, I had no idea rap could be THIS lyrically creative and in-depth. R.I.P. to the legend, can’t believe he was only 50 with how much of a presence the man had since the mid 90’s.
R.I.P. to a legendary rapper. He will always be a plateau of hip-hop lyricism that can rarely be reached. I am glad that their family is so proud of him. We should be proud of him due to holding the mic down.
Thanks for this Justin, as waiting on your coverage. Didn’t disappoint, Chino was my friend and a mentor. This shit hurts but seeing all the love this man had warms the heart, I hope he knew.
The Punchline God. Hearing Here To Save You All as a youngin forever changed my perception of lyricism and the importance of vivid wordplay and metaphors. I didn’t buy the album he did with Stu Bangas but I own his other solo albums as well as a signed copy of his first comic. His passing is really shocking because he’s always been in shape. But I was reading Prince Po’s IG post and he seemed to imply that Chino was sick. EFN has a lot of nerve. I didn’t see him and NORE inviting Chino to Drink Champs and they had PLENTY of time to do so. These MFs had ICP and Yung Berg on DC for Christs Sake, Benzino several times. Chino would’ve been the perfect guest- decades of experience in the industry and he had a Pun verse in the vault that he used on RicanStruction. It’s a shame.
RIP TO CHINO XL... A MC WHO HAD JUST RAW LYRICAL BARS, AND PUNCHLINES. HE DID THIS FOR DECADES AND STILL MADE YOU HIT REWIND TO SAY TO YOURSELF WHAT DID HE JUST SAY... HIS IMAGINATION WAS ENDLESS, WHEN IT CAME TO HIS LYRICS. YOU COULD GO ON AND ON. ANOTHER HUGE LOSS FOR HIP HOP CULTURE. CONDOLENCES TO HIS FAMILY/DAUGHTER'S / FAMILY/ FRIENDS MAY HE REST IN POWER. 🙏🏽🕊️.
one of the illest. one of my favorite lines is “ u cant see me like the muppet babies grandmama!” makes me laugh every time. it’s off his first album im here to save u all. definitely will be missed .
He’s part of the History now. Wouldn’t have known about him or his passing without this channel, but that’s a sad loss regardless for his friends and family. Condolences & RIP
ONE LOVE BROTHER CHINO XL & I’ll never forget your Amazing Verse On SWAY & KING TECH’s “THE ANTHEM”…when CHINO XL SAYED “Yo, yo, yo, Chino make the world go 'round……IT WAS OVER….I wrote on another HIPHOP page yesterday how I listened to “Pendulum Swing” yesterday while I walked a few laps in the park & I kept listening to that track on repeat….I loved LA The Darkman, Canibus, KANG CROOKED & CHINO XL MESHED So well with Rakim 4 HIPHOP….THANK YOU BROTHER CHINO XL…YOUR LYRICS DID HELP THE WORLD GO’ROUND….!!! Bless His Family…!!!
This is beautiful ❤️😍 wodie...... Mucho 💞🤟💞💟 to those who can conclude Chino XL 🙏🙏🙏 he is a Lyrica list for sure 😁.... I'm sad for him cuz he had much more life.
It makes perfect sense. They don’t want to keep the death secret, but they also don’t want to be asked a whole lot of questions about the circumstances. They know his fans should know, but the family would also like to mourn in peace. Are you really unable to understand that?
@@anonymouslakernerd7214 No, I don't understand. I don't know him. There have been a lot of young people committing suicide, dying from cancer, and drug overdose.

My friend sent it to me on Sunday as well, and we were talking about Chino's verse too.
@@maxsmart9116 in an album of fire verses with serious heavy hitters, it definitely stood out.
it was such a surreal sequence of events. rip chino xl

That first album .. my fav one.
R.I.P Chino XL 💯🔥🎤🗽🇵🇷❤️
Was just appreciating his verse on the Rakim album then this news.
RIP Chino XL and DJ Polo
OH SHIT. Dayum. Thats fucking sad. RIP.
7:05 Chino XL pre-dates Eminem, and is 100% a better lyricist as well!
Chino > Em
That's what I said. Chino influenced Em.
One of the greatest to ever do it 🕊
loved his music and his two movies crime partners and gang warz witch i both have in my dvd collection
RIP Chino♥️
My style's like teenage camp counselors, fucking intense (fucking in tents)
Chino XL legend 💯🇿🇦
Ome of the greatest Lyricist ever....
This is beautiful ❤️😍 wodie...... Mucho 💞🤟💞💟 to those who can conclude Chino XL 🙏🙏🙏 he is a Lyrica list for sure 😁.... I'm sad for him cuz he had much more life.
Rest in Power Chino XL. God bless the dead 🙏 🙏
RIP Chino XL
Mucho 💞🤟 to ChIno XL 🙏
RIP Chino! 🙏
Monster
One of the coldest to do it! 😢
All these hip hop legends been dying lately. Chino, prodigy, shock G, zumbi (zion I). Damn we are getting old, and our time is coming...
Rip to Chino XL.
Poison Pen 🥊💥💯
Reat easy Chino!
Why don't nobody say what he died off🤔
His family hasn’t released the info but Prince Po (Organized Konfusion) seemed to imply on IG that he had some sort of illness for some time.
Latino Eminem 🤟❓❤️❌🤞 mucho luv
Don't even do him like that. He is Eminem's father. '99 Eminem sounds exactly like '96 Chino XL.
Chino was beefing with Pac when Em was recording Infinite.
@@b-boycastertroy tell'em.
When a young person dies, and the family tells the public then they ask for privacy. It doesn't make sense.
Are you dumb or just insensitive lol
It makes perfect sense. They don’t want to keep the death secret, but they also don’t want to be asked a whole lot of questions about the circumstances. They know his fans should know, but the family would also like to mourn in peace. Are you really unable to understand that?

You are a moron. Shut up
