DEATH BY LISTEN! | Americans React to Rhyme Asylum Poison Penmanship

MERCH: beersandbarsyo...
BEER FUND: cash.app/$Beer...
Welcome to our Rhyme Asylum Poison Penmanship reaction!!! This is our latest video reaction from our new music reaction channel Beer’s & Bars. Here we listen, react, and breakdown bars while enjoying some of our favorite beers. Today as we extend our stay in the UK and took a bit of a rewind, we came across one of the most lethal verses! This is a perfect example of how iron sharpens iron as each member’s verse takes it to levels beyond comprehension. We can tell they are true students of hip hop and the way they paid it forward was by blessing us with the type of scheme that will be adopted by many. Looking forward to going down this rabbit hole!

Arguably the greatest lyricists of all time, so many layers to every single bar, I’m looking forward to more reactions to RA

[@nakedfootwanderer2464]

Hands down favorite bars

[@rossicourvosi218]

Definitely the hardest to come out of the UK

[@kevintwine2315]

@@rossicourvosi218 The hardest from anywhere.

It’s sad that Rhyme Asylum gets no media or coverage here in America. All rapers would have to get a new job if they were signed to produce music. If they wanted to go solo they just need to release some tracks.

14 years on and this is still one of the best rap songs on the planet

[@therenegadetoker]

Possessed is the only lyricist that has ever gave me goosebumps this dude is easily one of the GOATS just waiting on the solo Album lol thanks for the video guys

[@danielhinds9232]

Dude, these guys are off the CHAIN, uk hip hop is CLASS

Multiplicity, the art of raw, solitary confinement, unreasonable ft diabolical, I could go on all day, you’re about to go down a rabbit hole and I’m 100% here for it 😎

[@senpaisniper2796]

It's awesome seeing Americans appreciate RA they're my favourite UK hip hop group. If you can, give "The art of raw" a listen, its disgustingly hard.

[@StayFr0sty]

3:26 - he is also talking about a penny coin, that has the queens head! definitely do their FITB, so crazy

[@michaelrichardson2418]

Yo boys nicely done, RHYME ASYLUM are the real deal, PLASMA PSYKLONE and POSSESSED are the lyrical triple threat. They only released 2 albums but every single track is a killer. They do have a Fire in the Booth. Very much a Gravediggaz or Necro style.

[@BeersBars]

Both added to the list!!

[@undergroundhiphopfan6335]

Why di people always overlook Skirmish?

[@Tullekunstner]

If we're talking punchlines, this is by far the heaviest song ever written imo. Just bars on bars on bars. Masterpiece.

[@garyoak4175]

gang gang

[@ReaLzEdits]

Next Level is right ip there too. Just Psiklone and Zessed spitting absolute fire bar for bar.

[@KaeserRaps]

Possessed the 🐐. Love seeing some new dudes geeking off of Rhyme Asylum! I assure you every song gets crazier than the last!

Awesome some more checks in the box on each!!

Just went and listened to that gruesome features Jam Baxter album with brains on it and wow it bangs. Getting rinsed from here on out 🔥 Any other jam Baxter album recommendations?

@@MikeNolan59 all of his albums are pretty solid tbf. I haven't listened to all of them deeply though but you can't go wrong with him if you like his way of writing. Maybe "so we ate them whole" for an album but also mansion 38 with Lee Scott and trellion.

[@sjd11000]

@@MikeNolan59 nice, jam baxter has a song with the four owls which is good. But Yeah there's loads more in UKHH. High focus and blah records etc. Lee Scott is decent too, so are the rest.

[@michaelrichardson2418]

Remember too these boys split over 10yrs ago, while you guys mumbled UK kept it real. RHYME ASYLUM featured a who's who of 2000s UK MCs half of which are still GOING, arguably the most important collective in UK HIP HOP after HIJACK and LONDON POSSE.

[@Aydinmakesmusic]

best lyric in there for me was the end ''I forge a Sword from a Thunder Bolt and im rubbing Salt into Bullet Wounds just to make the Slug dissolve"

PLEASE PLEASE react to more Rhyme Asylum. You will not be disappointed. I promise you. Edit - i cannot stress how much you need to listen to more of these lmao, the wordplay from all 3 (or 4 depending on which track) is disgusting.

🔥rhyme asylum- next level lyric video 😉👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Do2survive1]

Ive only just seen this reaction and ive known rhyme asylum for over 10 years! Still finding bars to this day! The bars you lads are finding know and insane but the ones that you find when you come back to the song and listen to it more than once are other wordly!

[@BigShaun]

Rub in salt into bullet wounds just to make the slug dissolve. Rubbing salt into wounds obviously meaning kicking a man when he’s down or making a bad situation 10 times worse. Putting salt on a slug will kill it and can dissolve it too. Genius level wordplay.

[@ilir321]

Yess!! You guys are on rhyme asylum!. I'll definitely recommend open mic surgery, it's a New York London link up!! 🔥

[@chrisread28]

I almost thought about suggesting this a while back, so glad to see you guys giving it a listen!

[@aaronbonannosydney3094]

"Master degree burns after a heatstroke of genius" - one of my top 5 bars all time.

[@JLuke2oo7]

My boyss! I'm glad you've discovered Rhyme Asylum! I would go as far as saying they're some of the best lyricists of all time. At least they're number 1 in my book! 🍻

There was another pair of american reactors doing 1 rhyme asylum song and they laughed at it and made fun of them but they only react to drill music from the uk recommended to them.

[@proregeRotzak]

Didn't they complain, cause the lines were unrealistic or something lol like yeah, no fucking shit, that's a punchline. Big L wasn't ACTUALLY ''fucking chicks in the ass, since he was six-and-a-half''

[@lordelite3343]

O those bozos who reacted to multiplicity man the guy who the has the channel such a bandwagon he did poison penmanship said their elite than said their wack because his corn ball homie said they have weird accents and subject matter said the mumbling bum who can't speak properly

That’s Christopher Walken with the opening line that’s from a movie in the 90s about angels forget the movie but it’s a great movie. Anyway, back to the video.

[@yusuftary1553]

"Everyone in my FIELD of vision is just CROPS for the HARVEST" There are so many great lines in this song but that one gets me every time. RA were the best to do it in the UK in my opinion. No one matched them when it came to wordplay and tight multis.

[@jameshardy4583]

Yooo so happy to see you lads react to rhyme asylum please do more... so many legendary tracks... check out multiplicity

[@proregeRotzak]

Wow, I'm gonna be honest, didn't expect you guys to listen to this. Cause (sadly) they're not relevant anymore (last album 2010, the group broke up) But this to me is one of the best verses on a song ever. Punchlines, wordplay and great rhyme schemes to come with it. Crazy, absoutely crazy. The rapper's called Possessed, who was, to me, by far the best of the group. Great reaction! They also did a fire in the booth btw, would be cool if you could check that as well.

[@BeersBars]

Oh no, we didn't know they broke up... That really sucks 😔🍻

[@proregeRotzak]

@@BeersBars Even worse, this guy's last official song was with the group, so since 2010. All of the members, except for one, just stopped making music and dissappeared. Except for one, but he was the weakest link of the group

[@fizikz9647]

@proregeRotzak possessed and psiklone were a different level but skirmish was the heart man. He a real dude man. Dunno why people sleep on skirmish he was just different to psiklone and possessed

[@proregeRotzak]

@@fizikz9647 Lost, for example, is a great song. Skirmish shines in that. The thing is, however, Rhyme Asylum in general is very much about witty punchlines and worldplay, it was the whole reason they've still got a relatively big fanbase, and Possessed and Psiklone were definitely way ahead of Skirmsih in that regard.

Idk about everyone else and if they dosagree disregard me but the stop and start of rhe flow killed the experience for me even though I was enjoying what i was hearing.

Yea these guys are amazing but if you are just hearing of these guys now i feel bad for you. Possessed is the best out of this group. Also the sample at the beginning is the Angel Gabriel from that movie The Prophecy with Christopher Walken. Hes an angel talking about killing people for reasons the humans aren't wise enough to begin to try and understand. You guys are a couple of goof balls. I should start a channel like this. Id have much better insight. Also, doesn't give Wu vibes at all. Not even close
