Aesop Rock - Long Legged Larry (Official Video)

Fucking a if he didn't!

[@MCVessels]

Once upon a time in Calaveras County Old man Smiley has a habit that he can't surmount, he Bets a check on anything that a cat can count, so he Fished up a frog, made it bounce for bounty. Calculate to educate it in the long jump scene, Leap like a snake on a spring from a can a' beans, Lift the lid and this kid, blasting smoke and steam, Would hop half way 'cross the bowling green. Turn one somersault, or maybe a couple - Frog flies, every eye on that tumble Smiley's trophies pile high but all Bets are off when froggy's fed a truffle. Kid seems sluggish on the starting mound, Head too heavy to get off the ground! Smiley swears his revenge but he's never found The stranger took the bullfrog's bounce and left him earthward bound

Eh, rappers evolve. I think young Aes had something to prove. Came from the hip hop underground with the hardest metaphors and deepest cuts he could muster. Older Aes is like fine wine, unbound of expectation and well into his iconic style and flow. Artists usually have high and low periods, or just fall off entirely.

I'm new to Aesop but i've never heard a guy with a more conversational style. It's like he's just talking to you and it happens to rhyme, like really good. This guy raps without sacrifice. Long Legged Larry for Mayor for real.

[@Dankman9]

Welcome. Go listen to Labor Days if you haven't yet.

[@abdoonyt9049]

Dude, same. I used to think I am some hip-hop head or smth. When i discovered aesop rock, i felt like i knew so less. I recommend checking out The Impossible Kid or Labor Days. Both are some of his best albums.

[@jollygreenian8832]

Hear hear

[@grahamkristensen9301]

First of all, welcome. Second, this song is pretty simple by Aes's standards. His songs tend to be WAY more intricate than this. Check out Daylight or None Shall Pass next.

[@NATE-bz7mx]

Yeah he gets a lot more dense lyrically than this song, like in the least pretentious way I can i only can compare him to like, pulitzer prize winning poets or authors, his songs are wild. Hope you dig his other stuff!

[@jimilindley4422]

How am I 3 weeks late? Aesop Rock maybe the only rapper today to be quite literally infected with genius. Love his metaphorical story teller songs the most.

[@Hedra718]

He can rap about kittens named Kirby AND now frogs named Larry. Can't wait for the next animal.

This video is now the official "Tooth Brush Timer" for my kids. Go Larry, Go Larry!

[@nakiahlevasseur945]

this guy will tell a story about the most random shit and still have a mad nice flow and rhyme scheme and it'll be entertaining as hell

[@aliciakitchens1810]

I love everything about this. ❤

[@LastTryMedia]

I fucking LOVE IT. Aes, there will never be anyone better.

[@themultiverse5447]

Like infinitely

[@jimilindley4422]

Please never stop. Been enjoying hearing new tracks drop for twenty years. The man that made me realize my poems could be raps, and that I wasn't alone in my head.

[@ice409]

My kids love this song ❤

[@tw1797]

Finally an Aesop song I can fuckin understand what the hell is going on... Still love all his shit though. Peace.

[@THEBIGCHULETA]

I love the groove of this track!

[@timothypadilla4192]

My son loves this shxt Aes. I appreciate it so much. Songs like this and Kirby, gives me hope on his future of hip hop.

[@TheDreamburner]

Aeson Rock is the king of rhymes. Say it with me: "Must not sleep, must warn others. Trust blocks creep where the dust storm hovers..." Keep it up, my man, because I'm stoked for everything you make. BTW, this just became my daughter's second-favorite song, as she runs around singing and rapping "Kirby" constantly.

[@seymourglass26]

Her elocution is going to be amazing if she can handle the rhymes and rhythms. That's great training and she's just having fun. Fantastic!

[@ceetruth4709]

Wow! That line is exactly what inspired me to get "Must Not Sleep, Must Warn Others" tatted on my chest (along with its origins, "invasion of the bodysnatchers")

[@Dankman9]

@@ceetruth4709 I bet it had nothing to do with his tats that say that...

[@geniusgza7]

Success showed my 4 year old girl this once morning after hearing myself and she now asks for it to be played 👌 Daddy is doing good Go Larry Go Larry

[@seymourglass26]

It's one of those songs where if you're a grown adult and don't smile while listening to this, you need to see a doctor.

[@morbosmeatshack]

My son is 1 1/2 and he's absolutley loving it too

[@odie85]

I was 15 when a buddy gave me his CD, listened to labor days over 100 times. 20 years later my 4 and 7 year old love his music video for Kirby, just showed this, and we have watched it 4 times in a row now! Go Larry! GO GO!

[@joecool4813]

I too have a 4 year old daughter who loves this song.

[@geniusgza7]

@@joecool4813 great to hear my friend, Bless her ❤️

[@cicero7409]

If you consider the music video as well, this is one of the finest pieces of children's media I've seen since the early Disney stuff.

[@xtraapparel1909]

Then factor in the app/video game that follows the verses of the song and the plushies and its even more incredible.

[@TheRcDrake]

"Jump so high grow a beard in the air" lmfao

[@generationfallout5189]

Much love Ace Rock. So grateful to have discovered you back in my teenage years. Been listening for a couple decades now and still full of appreciation for ya homie.

[@danieldumile8739]

Aes is the most scholarly writer with amazing imagination whilst painting a picture. Be dope 👌🏽if it came with a book or music video copy for us having little ones, shit even read alongside audiovisual.

[@jaystinger3970]

What the heck is that thing in the distance? "RIBBIT", part had me crackin up!

Love this song. Go go go Larry.

I would buy 3 copies, one for me and one for each of my kids who've been singing this for 2 days straight now

[@mintberrycrunch5407]

Yo this hands down without a doubt my 3 y/o favorite song. I throw this jam on it doesn’t matter what mood she’s in immediately starts jumping and saying “go Larry go Larry.”

[@down2rock]

Literally, letting Aesop Rock put my kids to sleep these days. Thank you, sir.

[@stevebob240]

I didn't know that I needed Larry in my life. Now I do.

[@andreyleonel255]

Nobody talking how L.L.Larry's design is perfect, it really looks like he doesn't care!
