It's saying that each of us are sometimes a little overly impressed with the things we do and poking fun at that in a creative way. Most people who have heard the song see the humor in it and think the song and video are great. Only when this video made it to the front of KZread did I started to notice negative comments. I think that's saying something right there. I think it's hilarious that someone would call me a mainstream rapper!

True and it’s overly represented in artsy communities. I live near Joshua Tree, Ca and it’s like this song was written about the people there.

I've written plenty a verse against corrupt governments, unjust systems as well motivational pieces to make people who are down feel inspired. I'm almost known to be a "blue coller" rapper. There top that! (get it.) By the way Eligh loves the song Artsy, Clean Nikes has nothing to do with Nikes, I know Artsier is not a word, and I'm probably one of the least cocky rap artists you'll ever meet. Come out to a show, I spend time with my fans at every one of them. Thank you. Peace. The Grouch

It's good to be a polarizing figure, it means you're doing something right! Own it and never back down! Thanks for the amazing music over the years!

Thank you for that (sarcasm). Anyone who knows anything about my career knows that I've been an independent artist my whole career (13+ years). I come from the very forward thinking San Francisco Bay Area. I happen to drive a vehicle that runs on 100% vegetable oil, practice yoga and have written a number of positive songs about women.I have no problem with trendy lesbian dreadlocked thespians. Dare I say it, they do exist.

Yes yes yes, I don't care how old this it...this is a lovely diss record .Sweet, even the music sounds like art.still,I listen to this 3 times every day.

I got mad respect for The Grouch as a hip hop artist a Truthful, Uplifting and Enlightening message in almost all his music.. props to the grouch for revitalizing the hip hop industry with something real for a change..

puts 99.9% of people on queit time love this shit

13 years later and of course I’m still listening to this

Grouch is the shit. I use to get blazed to his dvd all the time. I am sober now but have some fond memories. Great flow and great song. This song kills shit!

This song and video are definitely one of the top 100 songs of all time.

This song was so ahead of its time

shoutout to Tony hawk games,,,,The Grouch probably belongs in one of the most potent, soulful, grand, and real hiphop collectives existing that goes by the Living Legends.....Third eye hiphop is a trend these days and some of it is real shit however this is ahead of it's time third eye hiphop

Sick shit! Couldn't keep my head from bopping!:D Great viddy! Truer words have never been spoken these days! Keep it up, Grouch!

Visually and lyrically orgasmic. I love it.

Haven't watched this video in 10 years. But it pops in my head randomly. Had to check it out again

I think this is funny. Because I went to an art school in high school and there's definitely an unspoken hipster competition XD

spittinn the game like the enemy

***SO TIMELESS***

Got here by pure intuition. Love it. I think you are hilarious

because you speak real soft and drink chi tea... LOL

no joke, there's so much truth in a lot of his music. He's almost like a good teacher.

We ran a small farm in an artist collective space for a living. The pretentiousness of many residents was baffling. This song always came to mind, and it made me laugh. Thanks y'all.

"i recycle too, kinda like you. i look cleaner, grown demeaner, wear deodarant, registered voter and a tree hugger too. not in these clothes, me loving you but it's gotta be both ways." that's fresh. i love Grouch. he's real talk.

this song like perfectly describes hipsters haha. its kinda funny tho because lotta grouch (and underground fans in general) are hipsters lmaooooooo

15 years ago still bumpin this shi

Been jamming this since 2008.

I'm not weird, I'm honest

Just found this tune on a Tinder profile. Gal didn't respond.. Don't mind. I got mine bih.

Love love love

The test of time omg this is forever relevant

I LOVE it!! Great job man.

Well done. The visuals are awesome.

this video is pretty dope i like all the elements that are mixed together

Tune! One love X

Still dope!!! Love you Grouch!

amazing video! Long live the Legends!!!!

ye man, high quality scenery, tail and the best chronic BC is tha shyt

I just saw The Grouch & Eligh at Paid Dues last weekend and he did this song. . . Soo sick!!! I love this song!

Love the ambient hip hop beat

It is about being yourself man. Go Grouch keep doing your thing man.

great job, grouch and buildestroy.

Grouch ... i love this tune, real clever and witty. It gives me that "beef and broccoli" vibe. (Technique for those who don't know)

This has got to be one of the best videos of all time. It's so art - seee

That was straight up an awsome video,

Excellent Video and an even better song

Damn, this is so so good!

Wow amazing work

Yeah that's the "MTV version" I made (I hope). They made me change the bong and weed, so I made it a microphone and speakers. Also I had to blur out the middle fingers of Grouch and Oscar. Lemme know if that's what you saw, otherwise they made their own edit, which will piss me off! Hollar. - Cory Shaw / Buildestroy

Awesome vid! Keep up the good work

I am glad to see real underground hip-hop on youtube.

Dope tune

did anyone else notice that guy with horns that pops up on the tv at about 00:12 seconds? weird... grouch always been dope. since the 90's. way ahead of his time man... and very underrated

great song, love the message, i totally agree

Those drums are sooo good

This video is so artsy! Still stands out

this was awesome :D just the lyrics itself.

what a fresh video!

that was so cool!

great,you stepped on all these toes you should be proud. big up!

damn.... what the heel... its so a great video... what is it another Hype Wiliams joint... respect...!!!

Grouch produced this track. Yo we got nominated for best Hip Hop video in the MVPA awards! Grouch next to Snoop Dogg and Common. We're doin it! Make sure you download the Hi Res version from Itunes to peep all of the detail I put into the animation, half of the hotness can't be seen on this KZread version.

crazy creative.. good shit..

woow, this is fcukin well edited, maybe the best edited video i saw on youtube! congrats!

best video i seen in a long while. up there with the chronic furtue vid.

I love the song! Nice videoclip too ;)

love that edgin' on a mil
