[@TonyNguyenFR]

People say Hopsin is corny. I just say he actually keeps it real and doesn't try to be cool, whether it's corny or not.

[@SerpentLord999]

facts

[@lbngaming5141]

same with Logic and Cole honestly. They just real, all three of them are talented too

[@XxScArEcRoWxX1]

Basically

[@hearwho8438]

Tony Nguyen Hopsin tries too hard to be that different "bad boy I hate famous stuff" guy

[@bkd2117]

Altair Ibn La-Ahad but that's just how he has always been. Wether it's in his music or him just talking in person. It's not him trying too hard, that's just how Hopsin truly feels about this shit

[@evanabel96]

He was low key calling out lil pump and lil yatchy the whole time😂😂

[@LucidSoundz]

Low Key? he was basically screaming it in ur face the whole music video lol with the costumes

[@adielhernandez3502]

Dont forget lil uzi. All these rappers that start with lil are fucking trash

[@evanabel96]

hernandez hernando fr

[@codyhedrick1249]

hernandez hernando Idk man, Lil Windex is hype as fuck for a comedy rapper, and so is Lil Dicky. Lol

[@nhilist5774]

hernandez hernando except for lil peep if you actually listen to him it gets pretty deep

[@VahidMusictx]

@7:48 perfect impression of how the modern day rapper acts, thinks and talks lol. Hopsin is hilarious 😂 😂

[@thedazer9549]

Vahid Musictx Soulja Boy Impression

[@ChrxmeHeartYuuki]

TheDazersoulja boy isnt a modern day rapper

[@jaylanny5327]

Fr 🤣 I was DIEING when he said that shit lmao had to rewind it like 5 times hahah

[@ZaveAres]

Hop is such a genuine dude

[@WhosNyGeal]

ZaVe Ares Dude has definitely paved a lane for independent artist 💯, if it ain't too much trouble bro could I get you to check out my music please 🙏🏾. One of my goals is to gain a supporter a day.

[@joeybettafouco]

Shitty he dissed kendrick though. He's my favorite rapper

[@joshuafarrell8516]

Joey Bettafuco and?

[@whiterabbit6982]

fuck Kendrick.

[@joeybettafouco]

Joshua Farrell and kendrick hasnt done shit to hop lol if anything hop is just jealous of him so he tries to make fun of him for it

[@SamFarley098]

Such a chill guy

[@WhosNyGeal]

sam farley Yeah Hopsin really seems like a down to earth dude 💯. Definitely appreciate him paving a lane for independent artist 🙌🏾, if it ain't too much trouble could I please get you to check out my music 🙏🏾. My goal is to gain a supporter a day so you listening would mean the world 💯

[@Ahrths]

his teeth whiter than his tshirt no wonder he always smiling

[@stantonthorne]

ahrths dentures I think

[@Ahrths]

deeaaadd lmfaaoo

[@Aextra101]

He bleached his teeth a couple years ago

[@kensleyb5679]

man dingo dentures?.......really?

[@50greykitties]

I had to turn down my brightness

[@MRX-ht3oh]

He's seems so energetic now. Glad to see he's back on track

[@BranSoIo]

Their convo about mumble rappers speaks so much facts. Have a rapper who practices the art of rap, has their own style, good lyrics, but gets ignored or doesnt get a lot of cred as he or she should. But a "rapper" who cant pronounciate their words, same flow, same beat, but gets recognition. Like if cancer was music, it would be rap.

[@zachshipley1689]

Bran-Don or gets called corny for being real and honest

[@BatmanTheHomie]

Many people can't listen to lyrics without falling asleep, mumble rappers are lit and energetic lyric rappers are just boring

[@PizzaDwight]

Bruce Wayne when will you niggas realize that its the producer that does all the work lmao

[@qholmes5953]

Bran-Don "pronounciate"

[@seidfric]

Bran-Don 9

[@sorivios728]

Been waiting on Hardknock to interview Hop cause the past ones were dope

[@lazlo7247]

right? Like all these other channels are doing competitions of like. Who can interview Hopsin but have the least amount of hopsin talking

[@t.j.watson7112]

bardockdbz100 how they ment to interview..not like most these fakes these days cutting them of trying snatch whatever they can get

[@Slayton701]

[@sorivios728]

Slayton701 if you have time to type tht u got time to follow me on sound cloud

[@isaactillman313]

Slayton701 you sound like you know nothing about Hopsin. Hop is anti Illuminati dude. He pokes fun at them all the time. Listen to Fly and ill mind 5. Also listen to Nocturnal Rainbows. All of those songs he exposes the Illuminati bro. He is talking against it in all of them.

[@ClutchTacticsGaming]

I totally understand hopsin for real

[@rickytariq]

Hopsin will eventually blow bigger than Tech. Mark my words

[@cailondelano6239]

Ricardo Jalil I woulda agreed if Funk Volume was still a thing. But noe o don't think so.

[@rickytariq]

Cailon Delano With his own label just like Tech has his own label, I'd say yes

[@TheZakata12]

IDK, tech will have to stop growing first.

[@rickytariq]

Love Tech but he's probably not going to get too much bigger. Hopsin will most likely get more recognition the same way Gambino and Logic are finally getting more attention

[@maddcattnwonderland836]

Tech could of went Mainstream he didn’t want to sell out. That’s why he’s still underground cause that’s where he wants to be. He goes on tour every year,has his own label and signs artist that he wants too promote. I love Gambino but he was an actor before he showed his rap skills that’s why he’s popular. An Logic is talented but that Everybody album is cheesy and lame in my eyes. I honestly would prefer if Hop stays where he’s at or gets to Techs level and just stays running underground rap. Cause that cheese ball Walt Disney shit Logic doing now is for the birds man.

[@LakerFan]

These dudes nowadays are making hop feel bad for dissing Kdot and Kanye LOL 😂

[@CarolinaPanthersGuy]

LakerFan he said that wasn’t really a diss at Kendrick he was just having fun

[@ididit9063]

LakerFan not really

[@henryknows3756]

no one gave a fuck about the Tyler diss he didn't even acknowledge it so his fans didn't even notice X'D

[@richieblack5530]

Not only that he’s trash

[@GavinBryce]

AbnormalFishie Actually Tyler dissed Hopsin back multiple times

[@angeljimenez7709]

Wow hop seems so much more humble now. I love it !

[@halleyjo7276]

I'm so happy I grew up listening to him and I'm grateful he shares the same opinion about hip-hop and mumble rappers with me.

[@monsta504]

7:49 im dead 😂💀

[@ryanco2232]

So accurate Lol. Lowkey sounds like Kodak

[@ScoobaMusic]

Hash Brown was talking there, lol

[@Achayanrapper]

monsta hahahah same.here hahaahhbHa

[@silasjames6907]

monsta when I pressed that it took me to some weird ass pad lock ad

[@monsta504]

First time my comment gets likes that much 😂

[@seanwatts392]

Another great rapper who has lyrics who stayed relevant is E40. Started rapping since 1988 and has dropped multiple albums each year since that has always went platinum and gold and each song is a banger.! I was in the car seat when my mom played his music. Now my kids are in the car seat while I play his music. Pure game!

[@thatoneguykaboom7329]

It's been a minute, Hopsin and Nick interviews! B**** HE'S KICKIN' THROUGH THE DOH!

[@Quniverse]

Hopsin's been in my top 3 since Ill Mind 5. Keep it up man, ill follow you until one of us dies.

[@simonarodriguez3515]

The importance of lyrics!!!!! Yesssss 👌🏼

[@WhosNyGeal]

Simona Rodriguez For real! Hopsin has been one of my favorite artist for a while now due to the simple fact that he stays true to him. As much as I hate to be that guy, could I get you to check out my music please? 🙏🏾 i just want my music to be heard 💯

[@CursedWithABlessing]

JustMee LMAO you needa chill

[@christianiribe9259]

Cursed With A Blessing u jealous

[@CursedWithABlessing]

JustMee 😂 isnt much to hit on a random chick online, shit just made me laugh lmao

[@devonuzi]

Finally someone let hopsin talk. Almost every interview with him is just cutting him off or talking over him. I appreciated this much more, you let him talk and speak his mind.

[@SJSounds]

Hopsin could be the hip hop saviour. He has worked hard since he picked up the mic, he has become a better person during his career it sucks people call him Corny for spitting out the truth about real life situations,and yeh he was jokey,funny type person when he had songs like 'sag my pants', ill mind 4 etc etc and he was still considered Corny for having fun. And nowdays you see these gimmick so called rappers having hair done, jewellery, cars, drugs, and are stupid, and they are not considered corny. Like he referenced on his song 'Nocturnal Rainbows' 'REAL ARTIST'S GET SHELVED, WACK ONES GET FAMOUS' which proves his point about today's hip hop culture, when Hopsin drops his new LP everyone will be in for a ride. would be good to see him collab with Jay Z, Eminem and others in the future.

[@prodbyonetime8126]

SJ Sounds lol it's fans like you who are corny saying he could be the hip hop saviour lmao

[@SJSounds]

ProdByOnetime he has a lot of potential. and he worked his way up, didn't even sign to any major record labels.

[@loganc5588]

SJ Sounds 💯💯bro. He worked his way through the industry. And no one can take that away. He got his own label undercover He distributed by 300 which is distributed by Atlantic. Mfs like future are slaves. You know who's real and who's not

[@Nephibis]

I love Hopsin's music, but I don't agree with the saviour part. Hip Hop doesn't need a saviour. It is alive and going well. The issue is that people need to be educated on what Hip Hop is, because mumble rappers aren't Hip Hop. Once people gain an understanding that Rap and Hip Hop are 2 completely different things then people will understand that Hip Hop is in a much better state than a lot of people think it is.

[@JayFiddy]

Hopsin is a massive inspiration. To me, growing as an artist, Hopsin has and still is passing down some incredible talent to soak in !

[@christianmerasty934]

Jayfiddy yeah true meet you in the game one day

[@nice7742]

hopsin and logic needs to make a rap

[@davidalcantar9274]

Logic over rated

[@meldinssti3311]

Bobby McSabbly logic's new album is trash funny that the song that made him blow up(1-800) is his worst song imo

[@nice7742]

Meldins STI who do you consider good then

[@avantnarde2815]

Dylan your comment was garbage

[@nice7742]

Vexpuriah _ that's what I say but they are idiots in this world

[@kanekiken2376]

Hopsin lowkey has some of the best music videos around

[@alexalt2630]

Put some respeck on Hop's name people haha

[@socialpsychos7471]

Alex Alt respeck?

[@brandonboyce4180]

Bella ciao

[@LoganBlood]

dope interview, i cant wait to see what hop brings to the table, ive never been a huge fan but i loved the ill mind series and a couple of his other joints

[@AidanGunn]

I really hope Hop makes a lil pump dis track

[@thugger2176]

Aidan Gunn I would love to see lil pump come back at him probably gonna talk about popping him like he pop a xan

[@livingviolence1676]

Thugger21 lmao you just wrote his lyrics. His only lyrics. You just wrote a lil pump song

[@piti-sukkah]

Lmao you can't beat lil pump in a rap battle. He doesn't care enough to lose. He's gonna upload a video of him fucking a bad ass bitch while he yells "fuck hopsin" and it's gonna go viral and Hopsin will look dumb like J. Cole did

[@thugger2176]

Memes + but did j cole even go at lil pump in the first place or did lil pump randomly start saying fuck j cole?

[@piti-sukkah]

All he had to do was say fuck J. Cole. Cole went at basically the whole subgenre of music. But my point still remains is that you can't hurt Lil pumps feelings. The xanax won't let him feel anymore lmao

[@TheBoltokPriest]

I grinned so hard when he said "I take it as a challenge. Hopsin is the dumbest motherfucker of em all." I love seeing this down to earth, laid back, super chill side of him. I never really looked at him as though Hopsin was an alter ago, ala Slim Shady. A lot of his early work never made that separation. His recent transparency and separation of his real life and career has made it easier to see how calculated his choices have been. I always took him for a reactionary, but he's put a ton of thought into his future and his career decisions. He knows when to go with the flow and when to kick off and go in his own direction. I have so much more respect from him knowing there's so much more to his intelligence than just his incredible lyricism. And above all that, he's a hard working dude. Got a lot of love for him, not just as an artist, but also as a person.

[@hardknocktv]

You can watch part 2 of Hopsin and Nick's conversation here: Hopsin talks 300 Deal, Keys to Success, Token, Funk Volume, Says You Cant Just Rap kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6qro4uvfdJlZ7s

[@EricDelshunMusicPage]

Good stuff bro

[@johntrout640]

Hopsin is one of the few rappers out there that actually has intelligence. He understands his craft, he strives to make himself better, and he works his ass off to do all of those things. Today, he remains the only rapper I can listen to talk without cringing or getting aggravated at. And he remains the only rapper that I listen to on a regular basis.

[@RiverCity24]

Lyrics are important but it's not everything and we need that balance, if it sonically sounds good it sounds good there's mad lyricist out there who can rhyme they ass off and have tha craziest metaphors but can't make a good sounding SONG(look up the definition) and vice versa with the "mumble" rappers

[@BroCoGaming4]

I have nothing but respect for Hopsin. Such a awesome person.

[@hardknocktv]

You can watch all the conversations with Hopsin over the last 5 years here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnapmX56d62Hpa8

[@alexwashbrook3172]

hardknocktv Love your Hopsin interviews you guys seem to have such a great rapport and professional relationship and it shows with every conversation

[@user-rf4vc7mt4d]

Yeah I agree with Alex, you're a great interviewer. You ask the great questions, you don't interrupt him like some others do, and you actually understand what he says and come up with a great response Hop can think about. I would say you're talented at this job. Keep bringing Hopsin time to time like you always do. I love it!

[@JagagiMind]

hardknocktv Hopsin fuck yeeah!

[@SweeneyODD]

hardknocktv I'm an upcoming Canadian rapper, please support by going to my channel and taking a minute to listen to my new freestyle, thank you.

[@mikeossola6397]

Why would you record an entire interview without checking the camera focus?

[@youngsinatra4958]

could not agree more

[@YS-tw2tj]

BOONK GANG!!!!

[@retardhunter69]

This is why hardknock has the best fucking interviews of them all. The interviewer actually lets the artist talk how much they want instead of some whack ass interviewers trying to be cool always talking bout their shit nobody gives a fuck about and interrupting the artist.

[@esoterictruth444]

hop is back

[@insertnamehere8466]

This is why Hopsin is the savior of rap that we all need

[@MichaelCobbs]

Good interview.

[@tommybawse1224]

Whether you like him or not, you cant deny that this is one of the realest interviews of all time when it comes to "rap" music nowadays

[@KingMaloneBars]

Update yo intro nigga it ain't 2011 anymore

[@blvckdoll]

So well spoken and talented. Really wanna meet him. I feel bad that he went through a break up. Him and his girl looked so happy. At least he's back in it now. Can't wait to hear his new stuff. Keep ya head up Marcus👑💪🏽

[@mirage1709]

So hop can go full MC, or full dumbass.......hell yeah XD

[@indigovegas2637]

i remember when i first heard of this nigga in 7th grade. he dropped sag my pants and that shit changed my life. 7 years later and i'm in my second year of college still listening to this nigga. his shit is dope as fuck frfr

[@Destinationreached]

INDIGO VEGAS dude for real now I'm 19 and still fuck with his music

[@rabidninjamunkys]

I don't understand why we cant have different sub-genres in hip-hop. Like lyrical, street, "mumble", trap, pop, etc. I don't see why people have to hate on other sub-genres because they don't like their music. Let Yachty, Uzi, Pump, etc do what they wanna do, they obviously have fans so they're doing SOMETHING right. I like a bit of everything, and think that no sub-genre is killing hip-hop as a whole.

[@rabidninjamunkys]

Who cares if they're lyrically trash. They're making their kind of music, and they have ample amount of fans because of it as well. I'll never understand why lyrical heads always hate on something they find trash. Let these kids do what they fucking want to do. Is it physically or mentally hurting you guys? Are you in pain??

[@goat8761]

Views From the Lean Cup yeah but nowadays I can find 10 people who will say future, young thug , etc is better then Eminem , hopsin, Royce da 5’9 and it just doesn’t make sense

[@FunnyMemeHere]

Views From the Lean Cup Preach

[@rabidninjamunkys]

Marcus yeah, because that's the kind of music they lean to. Everyone has their Pros and Cons. My point is that let people like what they like, without a group calling another group mentally retarded because their musical taste differs from theirs. That's some fucking trash.

[@maddcattnwonderland836]

Your KZbin name is exactly why dudes like that get talk shit about. “Views from a Lean cup????” Theres another young dude I dis on the breakfast club comments that calls himself the Lean King!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂 you’ll some junkies that listen to other junkies music that’s just mumbling because they high as fuck and can’t put a coherent sentence together!!!! 😂😂😂😂 I’m dead in tears right now....

[@HybridSpektar]

He articulates very well. He holds himself very high. He sounds like someone who knows what he's talking about. Very down to Earth dude.

[@Xxmeca421xX]

Ive only been watching for a few minutes and im wondering if those drones are about to fly around or something.. Why are they just chilling around him on the couch. Looks goofy.

[@starrgazer9]

Hopsin real man, I like how honest he was about how he want's a more "bouncy" track to get the crowd going after seeing how crowds respond to other artists. You don't expect that kind of transparency from most rappers.

[@kaldrma]

We really need Hop back with all this mumble shit on the scene. I made a track about this issue called "Lil Blank", you can check it out if you feel the same way!

[@OfficialMakche]

expected shit, but that track is actually fire and hella clever

[@SaintVinsmoke]

I wna collab with u

[@kaldrma]

[@miltonharris2126]

Ryker is song on youtube or soundcloud

[@kaldrma]

Milton Harris Its right here on my youtube. You can also get a free download of it on soundcloud.

[@nevets1871]

What hopsin said about mumble rappers and people not caring if you’re speaking or not anymore is 100% true. Personally, I just rap for fun, and I was rapping to people on Omegle and he said “yo, you’re really good bro, but you’re not gonna go anywhere with how you rap because people don’t appreciate real music anymore”. Sadly, that’s probably one of the truest statements I’ll ever get when it comes down to music.

[@801DREADLOCKS]

So was that baby his ex had Hopsins or nah???

[@chronicwizdom8638]

Love Hiphop whatchu said don't make sense but if your askin if the babies actually his I think so I seen a picture of the kid and he's definitely half black, unless the guy she was cheating wit was black too then I think it's hopsins

[@ajaykazami]

Doubt it hop said he doesn't have children and I heard rumors his girlfriend cheated

[@801DREADLOCKS]

I'm just wondering because I have not heard him say anything about it since the song all your fault "the only reason she ain't dead because my kid on the way" Maybe this will be addressed on the new album.

[@ajaykazami]

Love Hiphop well I don't know but all I know is if hopsin did have children he would've addressed it and confirm it but he hasn't

[@kidmarley4203]

[@bobriley000444]

he keeps it so real it's almost unbelievable, every other rapper just talks about their own career and doesn't like to say anything about what's happening around them i love how hopsin just says what everyone else is thinking

ill mind of hopsin 7 is my favorite from that series.

[@wiz4750]

[@krishansimonpillai9831]

I love hop but he look like a created player in 2k

[@prudnick]

Just made me spit up my soda

[@seththesilent]

This comment cured me aids

[@ericdickert9795]

Man, I fell off when he left funk volume. Not because I thought hop was done, but because I eas going through some personal shit myself. Covid mansion made me come back for air, now I'm just catching up. Been listening for years, and its so nice to see the man behind the music.

[@ClutchTacticsGaming]

If you look at his skin color compared to his arm to his face its off. Lol its Chris brown head on akons body lmao 😂😂😂😂

[@xchx544]

The light is shining downwards onto hop

[@AlexanderGilberto]

I wish more rappers were like Hopsin.... He definitely is my favourite Artist.

[@Ed-vc5id]

Might sound weird but he has REALLY white palms

[@TheTdb20]

I shook his hand and he had the fucking softest hands i'd ever felt it was so weird LOl

[@MarioMartinez-bz1hz]

[@lustshot]

Hopsin should come to Vegas and do a show in memory of those lost in the shooting this weekend. RIP to all the loved ones lost. Stay strong everyone.

[@brutishlamb]

Im a huge hopsin fan. One of the best sets ive ever seen live, but lets be real fam. Hopsin made his name off his contacts lookin all fucked and dissin everyone in the game, and then you say "its all about how you look and how you act online nowadays" but its just the other side of the same card he played? (Coming from someone who cant stand future yachty etc)

[@nomynameisflacko4707]

Devin Lighthall EXACTLY. Contradiction at it's finest.

[@notagod7804]

Devin Lighthall the difference is he maintained because of his talent which is something most of the new artists won’t end up doing

[@ramiroblanco7955]

Hop, you got respect when I talk about you, always. Keep doing you homie, don't worry about the flip flopers or any one one else in denial. Glad to see you again. Come out to phoenix az to show some love. HAIL THE UNDERCOVER PRODIGY !!!

[@OnionTaylorJoy]

Mumble rap is just a stupid fad that eventually will either die completely or to the point of barealy being there. Then we will get the next trend, if that will be another mumble type shit or something actually great, that is a mystery at this point.

[@kadetheghost3035]

superotakushow lol mumble rap is fun to me it's just a time and place for everything

[@MostMorose]

Rock metal rap is next boy

[@ACe-ux9nt]

The danger is that mumble rap will kill the whole genre of hip hop. Hip hop has lasted 25 years longer than it was expected to. It'll be a shame if these ignorant swag rappers rob future generations of hip hops true political power

[@Road_WolfMC]

Hop is the reason that I still listen to rap music

[@RyanMatson]

I feel so bad for all of Funk Volume man... I love you Hop, but man you really messed up a good thing with FV... all the fans disappeared fam... can't wait for the new album. I hope to God it's better the PS....

[@chronicwizdom8638]

Ryan Matson yee fosure he did I kinda think he blew everything out of proportion wit dame on purpose cause he wasn't liking the state of FV, just imo tho

[@yoman785]

No. Dizzy said he had his moment with Dame too. However, Dizzy did say he didn't like how Hopsin handled it. What was said was Hopsin didn't have clarity as to where Dame was coming from, & vice-versa, but all sides learned from the transaction.

[@yoman785]

Not being totally clear as to where you're coming from has FV where it's at today. Nonexistent.

[@cailondelano6239]

None of Hopsin fans disappeared dude are you serious ? He just gained over 10 G of subs this last week get over yourself.

[@cailondelano6239]

And just a few days ago even Dizzy said uhh yeah I noticed some shit with Dame myself that was fishy. What's funny is if you guys were Hopsin and realised some dude. Who does nothing is skimping y all 25 thiusand dollars a year I'm sure youd both have a different outlook

[@MAJ0ROCEL0T]

I had a good feeling after he dropped Die This Way and The Purge tells me Hopsin has truly evolved as an artist. He is much more calculated and wise with this interview

[@roryekelouflowerboyyoung4778]

Jay Z's album definitely isn't new anymore.

[@jacoblyons79]

Rory Ekelou Young It came out 3 months ago after not releasing an album in like 4 years. It's fucking new. Lol

[@user-lp7cf9wq5x]

Rory Ekelou Young who tf said it was bro? The title sure doesn't dumbass.

[@isaiaholer7754]

You're confused the comma indicates two different topics, 1 being jay z and the other being hops new album

[@dimeandbiggie353]

ZaNe Nova it say jay z new album. I mean shit. Can't be anymore strait forward then that

[@tomwitner874]

dimeandbiggie No it doesn't. Are you familiar with what a comma is?

[@Jordan-eq1ms]

you can tell Hopsin is a good person he had a smile on and loves what he dose as a job

[@sanji275]

I think Hop doesn't realize that half of the rappers on SoundCloud are making music for shits and giggles

[@blackjesus6333]

The other half is the problem

[@cailondelano6239]

The problem is wack music like that showing our youth what to look up to ? Sure ain't that shit

[@sanji275]

Yea man you right.... I think that there are alot of players in the game who shit talk and flex out of an insecure perspective and they don't realize the negative effect that they have. But honestly, I respect and fuck with all aspects of Hip Hop to a certain extent

[@sanji275]

Smokepurrp, Ugly God, Playboi Carti, Ski Mask The Slump God, and Rich Chigga (To name a few) are all just now taking careers seriously lol

[@Absquatulationist]

The clipping on the mic when he raises his voice is pretty gnarly.

[@joshlofty7181]

Crazy. Sad his career will never be at a greater peak then funk volume.

[@alexwashbrook3172]

Funk Volume was a great chapter in his life but it wasn't the peak, I think Hopsin has had high moments but has yet to reach his peak. He is a student of hip hop and killed it with his emo and horrocore rap so far and now he is focusing on different sounds, deliveries/flows and marketing. He has proved that he can rap his ass off, now he has to play the marketing/business chess game.

[@gee_ruiz]

I might have to disagree with that man.... He looks like he's in a really good place right now.

[@Tgod1991420]

Pfft. You crazy for even thinking that. Hop Gna be even greater without FV

[@rickytariq]

This comment made me retarded

[@TheZakata12]

I heavily disagree with this lol

[@kylethemann11]

Hopsin is still dope af and fasholy speaks that real! been down wit him n his music for years now n have seen him transform to where hes at now which is why i respect his grind, ya feel me. listening from the Bay Area Yeeee!!

[@732Wavy]

He makes too many generalizations

[@THECOHORTONE]

A wise man once said only a fool speaks in absolutes.

[@geovanni888drumer]

Yung Wavy He has stated his upcoming album is VERY personal. So I'm sure he is just speaking loosely because he wants his tracks to actually make a personal impact when you hear it. Not water it down and have him repeating himself .

[@geovanni888drumer]

knnywilsonone Just curious, who has said that? Or where have you heard so?

[@THECOHORTONE]

Geovanni Sanchez lol idk I heard it somewhere and it sounded cool

[@Murdermonday]

Geovanni Sanchez "only sith deal in absolutes."- Obi Wan Kenobi , Star Wars Ep.III Revenge of the Sith

[@kidpsykie4170]

I'm proud of hosting and everything he has accomplished He makes me happy

[@ksproductions1036]

If its all about the beat then how about you get a beat like that for all your fans to turn up to. Hopsin just can't vibe on a beat like Young Thug Lil Uzi Vert etc etc

[@PizzaDwight]

KS Productions anybody can dude get real

[@ksproductions1036]

monsta7843ful well tell hopsin to do it since he wants his fans to turn up to his music

[@calebherbert730]

A first grader could vibe on a beat like young thug, lil uzivert etc etc

[@tjay_the_menace]

Hopsin is just the coolest guy man..!!..really hope to meet this guy one day been a Fan for years..!!!!

[@KimbroughFilms]

Sorry but no one will ever take Hopsin serious with the type of fans he has

[@travisramirez7143]

QNM nah dude his fans are complete dorks and douches

[@KimbroughFilms]

QNM His fans are 12 year old emo white boys who always seem to bring up mumble rappers even when they are not the topic of discussion. They are really cringy and they are anti-everything. Its terrible

[@maddcattnwonderland836]

He gets millions of views on every song he writes, helps produce and in charge of production on his own music videos. He does well with every mixtape he drops. He left his own label to start another one that’s doing excellent by the way. He goes on tour almost every year promoting his own shit. I think he’s taken pretty seriously for now,making money,in charge of his own business and has a loyal fan base. Even has people who don’t even care for his music checking for him and on here watching his interview and leaving a comment! ✌🏽✌🏽 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ An I’m not a little 12 year old Elmo white boy comparing him to mumble rappers. I could give a shit bout those mofos. You won’t see my comments on a lil yachty/ lil Uzi video talking shit about their fans because I don’t go that hard too dis someone. Lmao 😂

[@BatmanTheHomie]

That's true his mumble rap parody is his best song

[@MarioMartinez-bz1hz]

Kimbrough Films Look at logic and eminem. People always say that their fans are cancerous and shit but logic is blowing up now and eminem is a successful artist. It don't matter about the fans.

[@lukeg50]

Hopsin looks like he's healed a little bit from earlier this year hope he stays that way this guy is one of my favs I'm glad that he's evolving this album is gonna be great

[@snowzZzZz]

See this is why Hopsin is great. He can make lyrical thought provoking emotional songs, and then go diss all of mainstream rap without even half of the mainstream rap fans even noticing. He has the best of both worlds without being seen as a mainstream rapper. Hardcore mainstream rap fans and trendy folk won't pay enough attention to lyrics to realize that the song they are 'bumping' is dissing them.

[@direloky]

Hop is such a dope person in general and very intelligent and I believe he really knows what he is doing with his career and label

[@Jey-tw7mt]

Can't wait for his new album to drop

[@kardowalker]

great interview Hard Knock TV, y'all real cool interviewers.

[@M82Nick]

Hopsin is one of hip hops most underrated emcees of all time.

[@droxxed]

I love Hop's section on mumble rappers. It was fucking amazing.

[@asdsdasdasdasdasdify]

This mainstream music make me think All their followers Are fake. Real HipHop for Life ! Love you hopsin! ✌️

[@coybig6761]

Much respect hopsin from Scotland👍 been waiting so long for the new stuff to come out:)

[@Horner181]

I'm new to hopsin but I got mad respect for you man I see you building a dynasty for the rap game.I see ya

[@happ3781]

i like how he is always smiling in these

[@zldr92]

Listen here man I been a fan since 2009 found this dude randomly and have been a huge fan ever since!! I understand what your saying about wanting the best of both worlds with the beats and then people just enjoying the lyrics but the people who just like the beats are not hip hop fans they are just lit beat seeking pieces of trash that want a bad as bass line to Bob their head to when they catch a buzz and wouldn't care less about who's on th mic. Your real fans enjoy the lyricism in ever song you drop regardless of a wack as booming beat that makes their trunk rattle... you are the realest Mc out the hooks and syllables you use are of another dimension and that's what I love about hopsin he's not afraid to address real shit, and Marcus the same is a real ads dude that doesn't give a fuck about anybody or anything as long as he's staying true to himself and why he started rapping to begin with!!! Stay real hop don't let that mainstream fan base fuck you up!!! #undercover prodigy

[@EricDelshunMusicPage]

Hopsin knows how to make millions feel what he's saying.I'm one of those millions!
