[@Fleezy81]

Its because of DeadEndHipHop that I was put on to Ka......man.......R.I.P.

same here. it was this video actually, several years ago.

Same… If it wasn’t for this video here. He probably never would’ve crossed my radar smh RIP

[@toddfromgeico9728]

Without DEHH I would not have known about this album

[@vladimirklizschko9337]

[@nastie30]

Ka is that dude. He and Roc got me hooked on that minimal sub genre of hip hop. Its either you don't like it at all or you appreciate the quality of art on display. Still waiting for the Metal Clergy album. Its been a minute since it was announced.

[@MaskedMenace94]

Man that shit has been on my anticipation list for like 5 years lol

[@nastie30]

Roc got Rosebudd’s Revenge coming so I got no clue when it is dropping. Hope it doesn't take another like 5 years for it to drop.

[@liquidpebbles7475]

Idk if minimal bro, lyrics are dense and the beats are omniprescent, shits dense like a thunder that never stops

[@vincenzobarry8050]

@@liquidpebbles7475 I know this old as shit but that’s a good way of putting it. It’s like a thunderstorm in the distance that keeps going all night. Very present but somehow ominous and comforting

[@FrankLeBluff]

The sample from "Cold & Lonely" has also been used by french rap group IAM on "Un Bon Son Brut pour Les Truands"

[@sashicoolcrew]

never heard of this dude but hearing these lines is making me want to hear this right now

[@thesun3698]

I feel like this album is my secret

[@JulianWyllie]

Never heard of this guy but I definitely will check it now! Feefo's excitement got me and Myke comparing him to DOOM and GZA sold me completely. Also got a couple DEHH shirts this week finally. Been watching this show since nearly the beginning and glad to see you guys still doing great reviews!

[@atwarwithsatan27]

Glad you review this. KA deserve more attention

[@sxrk-]

this review put me on one of the best rappers of all time

[@R4NG3LW0ND3RZ]

LOL What the fuck. I JUST REALIZED. That in the description box ^^, The Modest Media Laugh is being sold as a ringtone lmao. Thats legendary!

[@ModestMediaTube]

Lol yessir. I actually just released it yesterday.

[@richrod0122]

+Modest Media couldn't sell the bars but sold the laugh

[@ModestMediaTube]

+richard rodriguez LOL! Exactly. We have to do a part 2 with Myke and B present. Can't let Ken go out like that.

[@Dnlmoney]

Yeah cuz they wanna make money off every litte thing lol

[@JJMza]

I want it but I don't own any Apple products. Any way I get get my hands on it? I need a refreshing ringtone / notification-sound and what better way than using DEHH's certified take on it.

[@LouieV6]

I like that Ka is not relying on the beats to carry the album, but instead relying on his word and pen game. Myke said it best, to appreciate Ka for the first time you have to sit down and read the lyrics as you're listening to the album. Ka is without a doubt a poet much in the same way Saul Williams and 2Pac are.

[@swipeduk]

Cold Facts is one of hip-hop's greatest songs, period.

[@Jonezy360]

DEHH forever putting me on to artists I never heard of

[@melo4087]

Didn't think you guys were onto Ka tbh! Good looks with this review.

[@DynamicAllstarDuo]

Word DEHH be finding some gems

[@KnownEpidemic]

+DynamicAllstarDuo any hip hop head should already know about Ka... I'm 21 years old and I've known about him for years. That's not to brag, it's just to prove ANYTHING can be accessible online nowadays. If you enjoyed this album make sure you check out his other projects.

[@Columbiadwk]

+KnownEpidemic I disagree you can really appreciate hip hop without knowing this guy. DEHH is lit for shining light on this guy.

[@KnownEpidemic]

Gu Wop You're underestimating his fanbase... He's been making music for 20 years and the fact he's worked with GZA & Roc Marciano alone should make his music easy enough to access provided you're actually looking for unknown hip hop compared to what's popular.

[@Columbiadwk]

+KnownEpidemic All I said is that you can be a hip hop head without knowing KA...discovery of emcees like this is part of the process. Others can say the same thing about rappers you don't know.

[@thelonious1977]

Been a fan of Ka since The Night's Gambit. Glad you guys reviewed one of his albums.

[@punjab1ify]

The sample on "That Cold and Lonely," Cormega sampled it in Unforgiven. The sample itself is Yusef Lateef - Like It Is.

[@philliptombs]

And I like to point out that this man Literally saves lives for a living working for the fire department and i think that is dope as fuck. I'm seriously obsessed with this dude.

[@NCsPride704]

Ka's lyricism is just incredible, nothing short of amazing man. Street poet

[@Wakandas_Finest]

I slept on this album for too long, it was in my Spotify library for the past 3 years 😅

[@ktfjulien]

😪😪💤💤

[@TheBrianc5]

I really appreciate y'all not only reviewing mainstream shit. Y'all giving me new stuff to listen to that I actually like.

[@compounding_gains]

This is why I subscribed to DEHH. You guys provide insight into artists or albums I might have overlooked. Thanks guys.

[@WhoIsJiminy]

Not sure if this is what Beezy was talking about, but Cold and Lonely shares the same sample as Ritchie with a T and GLASSPOPCORN's song " A Very Fuegas Christmas" s/o Injury Reserve 🔥🔥🔥

[@ilovecody7514]

FLOSS SEASON APPROACHING!!!

[@drdickphd]

Injury Reserve is so underrated. I really hope they get some more attention with their next project

[@ocean_jams]

glad yall reviewed this album, ka's definitely my favorite rapper right now, at first you think there might not be a lot of repeat value, but shit everytime i listen to a song i find something new or hidden meanings.

[@lordfenestorjr]

ka!! is unbelievable! glad I found his music! going to listen to his music forever now.

[@ZeitGeist_TV]

"Could battle hard with catalogs with one leaf of journel."

[@danielgonzales5812]

I got so excited when I saw that you guys had reviewed this. This is easily one of the best albums of the year.

[@grumpee8432]

First heard KA on GZA's Pro Tools album track Firehouse. Then my boy put me on to his Chief Pedigree album, come to find out it was his sophomore effort.

[@stuffstuff8942]

I still don’t understand how Feefo likes Ka but not ROC MARCIANO lol. But still dope.

[@mauricemetivier8571]

Bro DEHH on that grind. THANK THE LORD

[@marca.2235]

"That Cold and Lonely" samples the "Fourth Movement: Passacaglia" by Yusef Lateef. For any French person it's instantly recognisable, as it was used for "Un bon son brut pour les truands" by IAM.

[@JonConstruct]

I swear every time I'm about do some homework, DEHH drop a new video

[@alvarogadelha7812]

R.I.P KA

[@FIRSTCLASSGAMER]

it took me at least 5 listens to get with this album. the beats were a little "loud" and it overlapped his voice but damn this is a solid project. Not sure on replay value but it is a solid project for sure. almost had an MF DOOM flow. great review guys!

[@invisiblerules9566]

Cormega used that sample that Ka used on Cold And Lonely, on the Realness album on a track called Unforgiven.

[@jladosky23]

Dehh so big for the culture. The real culture. My favorite ppl to listen to discussing hip hop.

[@phadde]

Check him out on "Firehouse" off of GZAs album (forgot which one)

[@glasscage1123]

it's off of pro tools

[@tuchesuavae]

Gza put me on to ka with firehouse. That song took on a whole new meaning when i found out he's actually a firefighter.

[@MaskedMenace94]

This is dope, I'v been a heavy KA fan for years, I been waiting on y'all to review some of his shit. His work is very minimal, all his projects to me are good. Its either you fuck with his low voice, hazy delivery and production style all the way, or not at all. One thing you cant argue, very few artist give the streets the literary treatment that he does. Dudes pen game is serious. He keeps his sword sharp at all times.

[@wizdom7203]

Yo good lookin on this one. I was not aware of dude at all and now i'm a fan. I been bumpin Grief Pedigree, I can't even get to this joint and I got Night's Gambit. Dude is very dope

[@davidrowe762]

The original crew this is what I love! Ka is dope glad ya'll reviewed this

[@poserdisposer69]

Ka is dope af, one of the only artists i can feel inspired by even after multiple listens of the same project. jus the way he puts words together is A1. shit is pure poetry

[@davidevans9919]

So happy you did a Ka review. I've put a few comments on other videos asking why he's never been represented on the channel more. All his albums are great check out his previous 3

What an incredible artist His words will love forever

[@nick9249]

Ya'll need to review that Negus album by Kemba. For some reason Ka reminds me of him.

[@JulianWyllie]

To the question of who to recommend this to from Myke's point, definitely think fans of Wu or Earl or DOOM would like this.

[@madmanofmagic1]

knowledge the pirate was also featured on reloaded.

[@ss10baby]

I'd love to see you guys interview him one day

[@shellacSOUP58]

Hip-hop album of the year for me. Ka's best yet. I expected bars, but I love these beats too. Myke nailed it when he talked about the sound on "Cold & Lonely".

[@AvarusSpurius]

13:40 Cormega used that sample on Unforgiven on The Realness also Myke, if you are looking for more shit like this, look up WestsideGunn and Conway

[@stevec5885]

Both them sound poor to KA and Hus Kingpin

[@mfwest11]

You a real one if you copped that Modest Media laugh tho

[@LJ-un1hb]

Just bought the vinyl

[@willwright2216]

Ka makes that thinking man's hip hop (intellectual). It's not for the idiots that like all that turn up wild rap. (Would go straight over their heads)

[@Emmanuel-ix4yc]

His last album was dope as hell, gritty asf, imma definitely be checking this one out!

[@ZeitGeist_TV]

It's straight fucking fire, like Mike said not a single bad track.

[@Emmanuel-ix4yc]

+Michael Simmons no doubt, should be in everyone's top 10 this year

[@00ABBITT00]

Never heard of this dude until this review. Gotta cop it now.

[@pouihurmen]

damn, really glad you're reviewing this

[@CantankerousDruid]

You guys should analyze the lyrics of a whole song. Top song from your top album of the year, or maybe just the most lyrically mentionable songs that come out. I can rap genius that shit myself but you guys always say some interesting shit I didnt think about when you get into lyrics. And I always wanna hear more! Just an idea

[@SuisLBC]

Love how he’s not a lyrical miracle and the fact he has something to say and has sis dance hence to why most of his albums are cohesive and short

[@ericdavis1758]

Would love to hear DEHH 's opinion about Ka and that New York Post situation.

[@realtruth1988]
