lolipop3231 1st time I heard this I tripped the fuck out. I grew up on that song in a rock mix my dad has. 2 great cultures mixing so well

Lowkey is a great MC, but hip hop ain't dead in the U.S you just have to look for it in the underground. Hip Hop shes chilling with the underground now. Where she came from!

I used to listen to Grime but hip-hop opened my eyes!

Even better than the nas version Lowkey is 1 of the greatest of all time

lowkey just killed this track

Love this beat, I remember it from some Freddy film.... " Hey Spence, lets trip out!" Lowkeys always on point

LOWKEY STAYED TRUE.

hip hop aint dead i say its just the fans

if hip hop is a demon then it makes sense

nice tune

Brother. If you don't make it big, there is no God.

mind=BLOWN

nice :)

nice one

"Hip-Hop ain't dead it's just immigrated" Perfect statement :D

I believe hip-hop is in Illidelpha (Philly in Underground talk)

@TheNewyorkstar He's a Hip Hop artist, a poet and a political activist.

hip hop aint dead it just immigrated its also in the middle east livin in my vanes mate

nice

truth

he has already made it relatively big mate.

haha love this dudes accent and lyrics. hes not the sickest in my opinion but he is sick! at least he telling the truth here, I guess

@BigBoyKaveman Brother Ali, Celph Titled (new album is dope even though i didn't always like him in the past as much as some and thought he was only decent), Common, Half of Wu, Masta Ace/Kool G Rap (2 legends from the mid/late 80s STILL KILLING IT), Vinnie Paz (not as good as he used to be in early 2000s & sure Stoupe was the best part of the group, but still nice multis, if repetitive), Immortal Tech (liked him MUCH more in early to mid 2000s), Juice, Percee-P, CunninLynguists. U NEED MORE?

@JasperAllendale You Said It!

@Kracg999 Don't they have like JMT at K-mart? Thats some dope shit.

sik track

@boda1234567 Not all just the shit on the radio real hiphop is here in the states you just have to look for it it's alive and well. Hip hop lives in the underground.

@nullhbs originally from : Iron Butterfly - In A Gadda Da Vida

@TheWorldItsMine what have you heard? if its n-dubz, chipmunk, tincky stryder, tinie tempah etc then ill agree with you but like most places the underground stuff in UK is very good.

@509ECS TRUE

@yesitsvetz theres more than a few. theres people who dont have record labels or contracts or anything that are amazing (A-1 for example). and id rather listen to those few then have none at all.

@JasperAllendale and Lupe Fiasco, Talib Kweli, Dead Prez, NAS, 2pac, etc etc etc

@SneakyTarsier true true but i tried the song on youtube i thought i heard it somewhere else anyways thanks for bothering to tell me

@TowableCrab, true, in sweden we have some that are quite good in english aswell but most of the better ones are in swedish. yea Lowkey is legendary, but UK overall... idk u dont have much quality, atleast not if i go by the stuff i've heard.

anyone know what the background music is called the guitar

@ayub116 true dat bro..

tuune

except immortal technique... but yeah you're right

where can i gt da instrumental??

@BigBoyKaveman Dude, where r u from?

can someone send me a song from nas coz i cnt find it

@PLANBpenguin NAPALM!

whats this instro x

@AKAJDT Real Talk!

Isnt this a Celph Titled beat?

diss to NAS he thinks hiphop is dead... we all think that hiphop will never die!

@2010MissCooper i love the old JMT albums they are untouchable...i recently been listening to some mixes by this guy from norway called thomax - Black snow (ill bill feat. Apathy) check it out : )

@MrSniperscope what u talkin bout he is the best in da world. u give him a suckish beat he'll turn it to a platinum these kinda of rappers are rare dese days he is better then those who sold their soul just for fame

come out of retirement lowkey

it aint underground either,its hidden if you really love hip hop you will find it just look HARD immortal technique, lowkey, klashnekoff, and mic righteuos is where i started, but if your not awake you wontlike it so beware and be aware

@BigBoyKaveman hip hop aint dead in america...im from london and can tell u that real hip hop is still alive out there...ur not keeping up to date with all the snowgoons, Army of the pharoahs, jedi mind tricks, sabac red, chief kamachi....check it out

dis sounds like a rock song lool

@BigBoyKaveman It ain't dead in america bro also hip hop aint dead you just not updated with jedi mind tricks immortal technique AOTP and so on. Hip hop aint dead it's commercially buried alive

@scalum82 no he aint...what made you think that?jus kuz he dont rap about iraq and afg?the guy raps about black ppl around the world those suffering etc.have you ever heard his music?it aint mainstream...if it was it would sell..lowkey seems to mention nas alot in his traks..why?i dont know...

I dunno why people say he has hard lyrics. Basicly all he is saying you are fake i am not i have cool lyrics you don't. No hating just stating facts.

@TheSaintAza thats why u dont listen to the radio. and ur saying theres no wack rappers in the uk or anyplace else? thats why u listen to underground so u dont needa hear the bad american rap

i meant true music and real

@dreamshatterer09 Snowgoons are German mate, not American.

@TowableCrab iron maiden didnt make 'in a gadda da vida'? Iron Butterfly did.. hip-hops immigration would be to: France, Scandinavia and Germany.. not UK. sorry lowkey and folks u can have ur grime

nas left out a word when he made hip hop is dead... he left out MAINSTREAM! MAINSTREAM hip hop is dead...

@BigBoyKaveman Naa you just don't know where to look

@z0mgrugbyreturns THERES SO MUCH HEAVY HIP-HOP GOING DOWN IN THE UK RIGHT NOW. CHEKC OUT HGHFOCUS RECPRDS ON KZread. BIG BIG BIG TOOONS

@runescapeglicthes no.

@BigBoyKaveman Pharoahe Monch, Black Thought, Apathy, Shad (granted he's canada, but NORTH AMERICA @ least haha), Lupe (whose overrated & his newest album is wack, but @ his best he's solid @ least), Em (occassionally although admittedly he's nowhere NEAR his amazing 96/97-02/03 prime, but that's what happens when you nearly die twice from 2 overdoses & are out of the game for 4 straight years high on a ton of hard drugs & depressed from 2 divorces, best friend murdered), Jada, Fashawn, Slug,

@BigBoyKaveman there r underground us mc's but i agree US mainstream sucks and everyone here thinks its the real deal

@dreamshatterer09 army of the pharoahs and jedi mind tricks are sick rap groups but hes talking about the overall commercialization of hip hop has lost the meaning of rapping ... its not about the real world and its problems but about how how much money thee artists have ...

Yeah cos NaS is saying it's dead, but he hasn't even bothered looking at the UK hip hop, so he can't say Hip Hops dead when it lives in the UK ;)

@TheWorldItsMine u trippin fool

Is he dissing Nas?

by the that 'who he fuck' cares wernt for this track it was for tat punk who loves beiber

@BigBoyKaveman hip-hop isn't dead in america, you can't count the genius rappers continuing to make underground masterpieces out there (COUGH Aesop Rock, DOOM, Mos Def, Brother Ali, Sage Francis, El-P, Vast Aire, Talib Kweli, Del The Funky Homosapien.........) while i think i know what you're trynna say, you can't say that the UK doesn't also have its fair share of commercial, tired & lame rappers diluting the scene... every country has its dire hip hop, it's dismissive to say otherwise, mate

@BigBoyKaveman thats maybe the most ignorant comment man. what about immortal technique, vinnie paz, apathy, chief kamachi, or anyone else like that? so theyre commercialized bullshit too? you just needa know who to listen to.

@TheRapDude1 if they didnt die do u think they would be considered the best? no they wouldnt. not saying there not good just saying that they arent the best.

@BigBoyKaveman there still is great hiphop from the states. you cant say "fuck american rap", you sound like you never listened to underground hiphop. the commersial rap is bullshit, yes, but there is alot of music that isnt commersial, that doing it for the art. hiphop aint dead. its just been treated wrong.

It's not a diss track at all you tool. Nas was making a statement about the culture at the time and how rappers aren't in control of the industry. Not that hip hop as a culture has somehow died.
