Yeah but u know why kids like STEEZ and Thousands/millions not here? Because they wanted to do something about it and they was going for it. Joey badass now saying he was trying to take it slow, Like this is not something u chose, steez Seen a crack in the curtains and he was feeling to keep opening it more and more and more, Back then Joey would hear Steve's say some shxt and he be be like what the fuck👀 The adults in charge of promoting them Made sure To leave out steez if they could because They knew where steez mind And intentions were, Joey became aware with time of what steez was pushing with time, But he didn't choose to take a slow like hes saying now, You know capital steez and a lot of people didn't have The Choice they realized this shit bugs you out because no one is talking about it especially when you tell people and they look at u as crazy or tell u shut up it's like it push you to even go deeper it's not a choice, It only becomes a choice once you fully understand then it becomes a choice but when something is brand new you still want to keep going down the rabbit hole and fully understand, now a lot of people don't like it but people like capital steez, they was very curious and brave and they wanted to see the unseen and you know

I hate to say it but as I've traveled around the country, I've met a lot of folks like Steez. Brilliant talents with unbelievable inner beauty. So many of them end up on the street or dead. Some of them make it, most of them don't. Steez could have ended up embroiled in conspiracy and stuck in limbo or he could have reached the brilliance of the best rappers. We'll never know, but talent exists in a different category then success and that fact has a lot of significance in our loss of this undeniably genius artist.

R.I.P STEEZ ㄣ⃒ I still remember the first time I heard him on Survival Tactics, it was just 2 dope lyricists with so much energy. I’m only 18, I discovered STEEZ in 10th grade, so in like 2019, I remember just being so interested and felt extremely shocked to find out he’d been dead since 2012, but that didn’t stop me from going and hearing his discography. I just wish he’d waited a bit longer, he was ahead of his time and would’ve had so many fans rn. What makes it worse is that MF DOOM is gone now too, one of Steelo’s biggest inspirations. I know they’re up there cookin up classics but it really sucks to know that you can’t ever meet some of your biggest idols.

I grew up in South Carolina, Steez put me on so much when I was just getting into pro era through other nyc based artists around 2012, I was so infatuated with nyc culture and the aesthetic Steez had was so captivating bc if you're from where I am you'd know we lack a variety of culture to say the least. He really put me onto spirituality and numerology at a very young age and to see things come full circle with how things are nowadays is wild. I recently got to visit Brooklyn a couple times this year and really walk the same streets they did, I visited the building in Manhattan and just smoked for about 4 hours, such a surreal feeling.

In the end Joey was 100% more marketable, I have friends who are on steeze’s methodology about deep spirituality and esoteric stuff and as a friend I can understand it and vibe with it but as a business? Hell no. It’s not palatable as a business. The spiritual rabbit holes get DEEp and honestly depressing. I wish Steeze would have got some help or spoke to a therapist. I can’t imagine how Joey feels, losing a friend is one thing but the narrative of it being your fault it’s crushing

I was just a kid myself when I discovered STEEZ and Joey at the end of November 2012. Then he passed. I was 14 at the time. Now I’m 24 about to be 25 and I think a lot about my childhood, influence, old fiends and drugs I was doing at a young age, And I also think about how STEEZ was just a kid himself but the thing he was saying in his raps was shit I didn’t even think about. The mind is a truly a complicated thing we all go through especially as children and young adults. I just wish he stuck around a little longer and maybe lay off the drugs a little bit, I personally think that played a part cause they were experimenting. He would’ve most likely been the next DOOM if he was still here but maybe the pressure from the music industry got to him. I miss the dude like a long lost friend and revisit AK47 every year.

Im kinda glad they didnt in a way. I guess i dont know much about it like how much of it was done, but after seeing the disgusting puppeteer “weekend at bernies” act they pulled with people like XXXTENTACION and Juice Wrld I’m a little relieved. Like not only did they stitch together and release X’s unfinished album Skins he had been working on before death, but they legit like took a bunch of fuckin random ass recordings and snippets and one off like hooks he had recorded accapella and all sorts of other shit to make “Bad Vibes Forever”. That was fucking nasty man. Im not even gonna lie man im 26 and i was a huge fan of X, regardless of “lyricism” or “real hip hop” whatever, his music emotionally touched me ina way i needed at the time and after he died and i heard Bad Vibes i fuckin cried. It was like i was listening to a message someone who died left for me, except someone actually just stiched together old random voicemails and clips of them talking to make it in order to trick me into giving them money and I know X wouldn’t have fucked with that AT ALL. I guess his mom was the ultimate deciding factor in all that, and she did it for money that will probably (hopefully) go to help raise his child and keep her sustained, so likely he wouldve wanted it to happen anyways. But, i know he wouldnt have fucked with that album or how it was created. It was fucking weird. Also, i hella doubt any of his family was hurting for money before BVF anyways

I can remember living with my grandma when I was 18 around 2013 shortly after his death and I was writing to an instrumental on my laptop and the picture was steez with the supreme logo over his eyes. This was what I wrote: Call me cliche, but they call me the chosen one. It's a lonely throne when you're the only golden one, You're probably waitin for my hair to flare yellow, Seen death, I'm not impressed where the hells my halo? Jade green eyes, hide my past like the tide, True blue sky, horizon I'm on the rise, Good morning, sun through the shades, stretchin and yawnin feelin stuck in a daze, My callings, lost in the maze, I'm fallin, feelin stuck in my ways Yeah I know you, Don't bother introducing me, I see what you are from here, I see you translucently, People change, I ain't even who I used to be, Pray I stay the same, no regrets in my eulogy, I was born in the darkness, You adopted it, I'm riddick when I'm with it call me bringer of apocalypse, Soul stay tinted, This body's just a shell, A facade to hide the story that the dragon can't unveil, The scales from the beast, Breathe air out of hell, When my bones disappear with dust, then you tell tales, Soulstone opal but my outside emerald, Gem droppin since birth, Pages off the pinnacle, Lookin for my start, like the key in the ignition, Found it in these pages, On this road, I am driven, Rollin rockets, and I'm in the cockpit, Smokin comet, No accomplice, Chillin in the darkness, Off the top, Getting fogged in a parking lot bitch, Everything I spit is clean, Youre in the fucking garbage, Can't pronounce this, Sacred is the name, Sent back from whence you came, Retreat to the darkness, Flames doused out, When the king comes out, No, this the end of the drought, When the king comes out, Judgement day upon us, Sky open, bow down Get the crown from out the ground, Bring the wooden chalice, While the planet bounces around, On my opal studded pendent, My remembrance, Every word given you won't forget em cuz I meant it Good morning, sun through the shades, stretchin and yawnin feelin stuck in a daze, My callings, lost in the maze, I'm fallin, feelin stuck in my ways. x2

man I wish he was still here man, one of the greatest talents I heard who moved on too soon, I was 13 when I found out about Steez, it made extremely sad to know he was gone when I found him, cause he was off the charts, he changed my way viewing things in life, in a way he’s one of my inspiration why I decided to make music, I hope I could one day be on the level he was, forever will rep that 47 shit, LONGLIVESTEELO R.I.P King Steez

Steez was way ahead of his time. RIP to a lyrical legend. Edit: Maybe he wasn’t wrong. Ever heard the song or term “it’s the end of the world as we know it.” Well look at 2012 and 2022. The world we knew and love is long gone. The world was a much better place when he left.

He was my favorite and last time i was fully hyped and obsessed about anything Capital Steez said, did, or rapped. I remember talking to dude on his Tumblr just about life. Man was so cool and down to earth. I miss him. It's almost 10 years now...

The world preys on the gifted and most young kings get their head chopped. i still cling to the belief steez had something about him i and most could not begin to comprehend. i have came to the conclusion the true path to enlightenment for me doesn’t involve psychedelics and esoteric means. Despite dropping most of those beliefs beyond modern science i still have confidence in believing steez was in tune with something more divine than a vast majority of others . Whatever that may be is beyond me but is something i respect on a profound level

I can say as a artist and cancer. That I have felt that feeling of being very good at something only to be ignored or like an afterthought despite the attempts to be put in a better position. But i can see how much it hurt him in videos that he wasn’t getting what he put out. And that’s what hurts the most. Knowing he was loved by many but it didn’t always show. I’m glad I came across this video.

you are selfishly hijacking his story - very different from what you are trying make of it , just to make it fit yours, or fit your narcissistic brain. Where do you hear in this video that it was about not getting recognition? He may have had other bigger things to be worried about.

I was there for this whole movement… Steez was incredible, really took “entendre rap” to the next level. Not in terms of impact but in terms of skill, much like jay z and Wayne did. It was inspiring to me at the time, don’t think I would have thought to begin making music without it because of how inspiring and intricate his rhyme scheme was. Check out spitter splitters freestyle, he was just a kid. “I lie, I cheat and I steal, I know”
