AWOL One - Rhythm

From the "Souldoubt" album by AWOL One & Daddy Kev
Lyrics:
But you can't beat the beat
But you can't beat the beat
You're a stupid sucker never done shit from me
Get in the car and I'm a drive till I'm outta gas
Slow or fast
Can't put me down no more
I'm a mother fucking creature of the wind
You can't touch me
You can't touch this
Kiss my wing, kiss my knuckle, never!
Scoop up chicks at the shows and take 'em
Home and blow
Money to spend
Dream the impossible dreams
Bloodstreams
Seems as bulimic throw up throw up
Tore up the floor up, floor up
Smoking in the bathroom
Getting kicked outta school
Car like a trap of your screwy little varmet
I'm a family walking through the district of Garments
Downtown Los Angeles, the gates of heaven
All the people, they just wanna have fun
Stupid suckers are so fucking temporary
Me and my crew, we're walking down the street
But you can't beat the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat
You put the tape in and turn the music up
You hold on one of 'em, stick your finger up
When I was a kid I never had any friends
Was always the one start making some money
Pen and paper, two pair gellin'
In my diapers reeking days old
Never too cool to take a request
Mom it's all right to get shit of my chest
Music started in '74, Standing too close but
I'm worlds away
Touch the mic, it'll burn your fingers
But I'm down instead of slingers
Old and rusty, still brand new
Always coming through with the shapeshifter crew
Girls they just wanna have fun with someone
And find a man to support their kids
People just wanna have fun
All you suckers are so fucking temporary
Me and my crew walking down the street
You can't beat the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat
The beat [x17]
Oh, how I hate that stupid look in your eyes
Like you already know but you pretend to be surprised
The way you go on, I don't know where to start
The only sound that I hear is the beating of my heart
What keeps me going is I love the way she does me
I'm the wing child of the man on the mic
Day outta nowhere, I'll fade away
They try to understand me but they don't care
Put up your ones, people say practice makes perfect, not worth it now
Throw a bottle on the ground to make it sound, world renowned
Rhythm to the rhythmless,
Shame to the shameless -
Money to the moneyless,
And names to the nameless.
People, they just wanna have fun
But all you suckers are so fucking temporary
Me and my crew walking down the street
But you can't beat the beat, the beat, the beat, the beat...

[@tillmannobendorf]

From my experience, this song is appropriate for many different activities. This includes simply listening to it.

[@YoureNotThatGuyPal-]

Brought me back to my teen years, this song is straight gas ⛽ 🔥

[@ThePegas210]

fire🔥

[@perryfizzbottom7561]

This song should be on one of the radio stations in GTA, I have the feeling of just cruising around the town/city/wherever with this song playing on the background. Pure fun.

[@incredible_tore]

'So fucking temporary'... Love it! Making it my new mantra!! Thank you YT algorithms for putting this in my path today, idk how we went from DC punk to this, but it's cool - feeling like the axis has finally tipped in my favor! 😎

[@ghostsoul2608]

Grenzgaenger here

[@teletronz]

Hip Hop was so exciting in this era

[@SinaSoh]

One of my favorite songs from 2001 by Awol produced by Daddy Kev first saw the vid on a local underground hip hop on PBS show out here in southern cali back in 2003 this became a top 10 song that I bumped that year along with 50 cent, outkast & Jedi Mind tricks & it made me wanna get this CD which is AWOLs best to date. On monday after my Rangers were on a commerical break I clicked on MNF & I saw this vid & heard this song & flipped out & the commerical made me replay this track like it was 03!

[@TESLAac130]

12 years later and still as good as ever !

[@YoureNotThatGuyPal-]

Still a banger 🔥

[@cstrausc]

All the people, they just wanna have fun Stupid suckers are so fucking temporary Me and my crew, we're walking down the street But you can't beat the beat

[@smartvodka]

[@justinklajbor1036]

What a time to be alive!

[@caustichollows]

I've got a piece of advice for everyone who is into this: check out the record label called "Fake Four Records." Pretty much everyone signed onto that label is FIRE. I found AWOL One through Astronautalis and Busdriver.

[@Myckenzierussell]

i want this in my head all day

[@sirexcel5568]

Irgendwie kennen einige hier nicht den Unterschied zwischen "Klauen" und "Samplen" 🤔

[@Sitchmaster]

one of the hottest beats ever heard!

[@markobarrows4304]

How good and thank you Mr. AWOL Hah! Love this mix makes you listen many times to make sure you heard what you heard.

[@MrThomassen]

this song gives such a rush

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

"Downtown Los Angeles, the gates of Heaven" Still factual.

[@filipdzhakerski7744]

I discovered this in the summer of 2022 and have been playing it on repeat since...

[@pilaralmazan01]

You hella late

[@alfredobadillo2415]

Glad you discovered it. True Underground Hip Hop is an incredible thing.

[@romangold9076]

Every time I hear this song I can just imagine this playing in an action scene in some assassin movie. Like right before the protagonists exits an elevator the beat drops and they just start straight mercing some bad guys

[@tomlaunders1234]

best song ive heard in years, its nice to hear something kind of original!

[@gineeta]

if u don't knot ur head to this ...... ur not human

[@alexkarlsson5188]

[@ohhDeLay]

[@bjarne7689]

dcv hats gesamplet🤔😂

[@xxwaldi]

hahahaha :DDDD

[@h4rdc]

BJ Arne dcv rappt schlechter als der hier und Sample ist ja geklaut. mal wieder 0 musikalische Leistung aus dem Deutsch rap

[@albertinio949]

h4rdc halts maul, du hast keinen Plan vom Leben

[@albertinio949]

Wolfgang H hat's gesamplet ;)

[@h4rdc]

Sam Sing was quatscht du denn da???? in meinen Augen schwächt es dcvdns musikalische Leistung enorm wenn man merkt das der Beat mal wieder bin einem Ami geklaut ist der darauf sogar noch viel geiler rappt obwohl ich kein englischen Rap mag

[@elias2338]

0:54

[@davegrohl94]

that beat is pretty nifty

[@SinaSoh]

We all know that todays hip hop music is trash & we also know that old school rap from the 80s & boom bap rap from the early to mid 90s, gangster west coast rap from the late 80s until 2pacs death & the resurection of Dr. Dre, & the birth of Eminem of the late 90s was dope, but not a lot of people know about the apex of the underground movement from the late 90s to the mid 00s I would love if the mainstream media played more underground songs from that time in commericals, movies etc...

[@GTDyno]

@skipjackBONITO Damn dude...You mad? It's his style..There's worse rappers being played on the daily. Let this dude get his shine. Awol deserves it. I used to get annoyed by this dude during open mic back in the day, but then I realized that at least he doesn't sound like the next guy and that he does his own shit. Did you get kicked out of Blowed or something? Why so angry?

[@DooragTheMC]

First time I heard this I was in my friend's basement. Who is now a music producer mikedecline out of Vancouver, we were rocking Goldeneye Multiplayer for N64 back in the early 2000's. Such a sick track!!

[@eancarris3850]

Haha I was also in my friend's basement, early 2000's, but we were playing Street Fighter Alpha II

[@stevecasciano1438]

Walked the Ave. MAIN & 5th in my Huggies! All you other lil b's in yur Buggies!

[@alaskaman884]

i JUST downloaded this song for the purpose of listening to it while boarding! hahahaha

[@JoseTrejowidd]

Bliss actually killed thaw onew, , but awol one is sooooo dope. Like every drop of rain counts some joy on your hand. Just listen, it's heavy. He's a heavyweight champion!

[@Dillinger86]

The sketch by Leonardo da Vinci made in around 1511 "The studies correctly depict the human fetus in its proper position inside a dissected uterus."

[@Alchemy510]

finally awol one getting recognition!!!

[@hpdixon1]

these lyrics are the worst i have ever heard... but the beat is nuts, so i probably will download, but the lyrics don't make sense and they don't have any speific rhyme scheme

[@medalf]

The original song is Borneo by Cal Tjader

[@hiphopguru81]

How the fuck did you discover that? Awesome bro!!

[@junck1978]

That is why he said "but". If you're going to try and clown on someone at least learn how to read. Spelling is pretty cool too, BOI!

[@raphaelhammerle9045]

[@ElsewhereGuitar]

Snowboarding music for sure

[@wkantor13]
