Aesop Rock vs Asap Rocky

[StillFaggyAF]

i doubt ASAP Rocky knows who Aesop rock is

 

[AZTG]

Any one understand what Aesop Rock raps about? its just a bunch of words that have no meaning put together. Then again I ain't listen to his catalog or nothing just made an opinion based on a couple of songs I heard years back.

 

[MetatronsCube]

tough pick

 

[Original_Skin]

I think Brother Ali introduced those two to each other a few years back. I gotta roll with Rocky tho

 

[MetatronsCube]

the videos on youtube of him in the woods are kind of funny lol

 

[5th Letter]

This is pointless because this wouldn't be a comparison if their names weren't similar.

 

[shtoopid]

both are cool, but this is a stupid comparison.

You have to actual listen and think about his lycris.

For instance on None shall pass

"Flash that buttery gold, jittery zeitgeist"

Zeitgeist is ideas and belief of the current time period. So in a way he is critiquing the fkashly wealth obsessed society.



Dark heart news

"A system of gods from each of the brawling tribes

Referncing multiple cultures have different Gods

So my bible is a pot of qualms clipped and collaged

Just speaking on how he sees the bible as a sort of mashed together mess

Pavlov's bad dogs parry mass bells

This one is very interesting and shows his brilliance. Ivan Pavlov was a Soviet physicologist who was world renewed for his idea of classic conditing expirments he performed with his dog. To make it easy to understand and to tie it uo to his verse it would be like if you were a kid everytime your priest told you you hear a mass bell he said to do a hail mary. And as an adult even when not in Church wither you are eating, driving, working whenever you hear the Mass bell you are going to stop whst you are doing and do a hail mary.

I don't speak the language but my last laugh's held"

self explanatory. He doesnt speak the language (believe in a God) but he is agnostic which means he believes there is a possibility that a God exist. Therefore he holds his last laugh about religion back since he believes he could be wrong

I understand but there is exterme value in his style, flow, and wordplay. Yeah someone might have to listen to his songs twice in a row and look up some of his lycris to fully comprehend what he says but its worth it, he honestly is intelligent.

Easily has the most diverse wordplay in hiphop.
