Kool A.D. - Dum Diary (Here Today Sessions)

[@Bernillary]

Definitely one of the top ten Malcolm Gladwell diss tracks.

[@ayecab]

Definitely an outlier track.

[@SavvygeMediaGroup]

lmfao

[@sgveee]

This is the most quality comment on the Internet.

[@jaaacccckK]

worst diss on the list, third coolest

[@JohnSmith-jz4pk]

jaaacccckK very good

[@charliec011]

I told kool that my dad died and he sent me some of his art. This is my favorite song of his. Truest bruh.

[@08bourquem]

I watch this every day.

[@Koettnylle]

08bourquem That's great, but i really think you should try listening to it.

[@08bourquem]

Koettnylle having trouble hearing that guitar!

[@Koettnylle]

08bourquem It looks cool though.

[@kenabraggs6980]

Same af. ...kool ad best fucking rapper

[@SavvygeMediaGroup]

I walk in the door smell like a medicine store

[@devm8425]

"I oughta quit, maybe I oughta not, I thought a bit about for a second so probly not" in terms of rap bars that stick in your brain and just stay there this one takes the cake

[@danwg3368]

Kool AD, cold but sweet like a otter pop

[@mattbourque8841]

kool is seriously one of the best rappers I have ever heard. Some people may find this funny, but his stream of conscious flow reveals pearls of originality. Something that is so rare in hip hop today.

[@smallnomad5529]

He also writes great horoscopes.

[@World-Wide-Will]

Couldn't agree more with you on this. Genius quality

[@DiscipleOfYahusha]

Matt Bourque plus he has his own style and flow. he don’t sound like every rapper rapping. you

[@naufrage0]

I feel like homeboy sandman does this laid back style better. This is a bit simplistic and repetitive.

[@CPT_HAMMAH]

Truly is. He can spit funny bars and switch to witty shit that makes you bob your head in agreement lol.

[@TheCheSlav]

Every now and then, I come back to this and some other Vic's timeless classics. I wish he still made these smooth lyrical jazz like raps rather than the indie cosmic-psychedelic garage rock tracks he is into nowadays. But you do you Kool, stay wavy

[@doubletapm4]

Same!

[@TheTwentySecondDegree]

facts this is timeless fr

[@kenshn22828]

I'm telling you Kool ad is the most uder rated rapper of all time

[@kenshn22828]

underrated

[@Masaru_kun]

+Kamel Purnell you can edit ur comments u know lol

[@kenshn22828]

I would have but i was drunk on youtube..hasselhoff

[@alexsikora2833]

+Kamel Purnell oooooo

[@DarceStellythewakeupvlog]

+Kamel Purnell Ha!

[@inuyashad1340]

nothing short of amazing he held that beat for over 8 minutes, i'd like to see most mainstream rappers even hold it for 5

[@WinorLose-ggs]

that beat is ON POINT

[@dahalofreeek]

Prod. Amaze 88

[@matthayes1255]

This dude's style is so fresh.

[@Vla3d]

"...If I thought about it hard - could I levitate?" You can be technically skilled all you want but having beautiful thoughts like these is a sign of true talent and a beautiful inner world contained within that person.

[@thomaseatspomus]

kool's multisyllabic rhyme game is hella underappreciated. probably one of the best ever

[@buttjohnson]

do you mean keith, g rap, or ad? they're all pretty good at it

[@hunterl3358]

instead of brushing my teeth in the morning i listen to this song

[@breadsandwich336]

+Clarence Murphy this is what the other 1/10 dentists recommend

[@grafforbust]

Maybe brush your teeth as you listen lol

[@crazycolorpants]

I can't I'm rapping along

[@shawnwilliams1958]

instead of wiping my ass after i shit i brush my teeth

[@yOGlo]

Makes sense

[@connorthomson4652]

Probably the most impressive rap to yet be created

[@alexschoeny2090]

Thx

[@jamesgram123]

Kool A.D. best rapper in the world

[@joeyisrad178]

[@yOGlo]

KOOL A.D. GREATEST RAPPER OF ALL TIME DEAD OR ALIVE !! KOOL A.D BEST RAPPER !!!

[@CalRCRecords]

Coming back to this years later and I still get chills from Kool's undeniable mastery of M.C.ing or whatever you want to call this

[@Pistonsfanforlife09]

The beat is sooo soothing

[@claudelk1719]

Thank you! Kool A.D. is good, but that beat is pure fire!

[@rideoncollective4170]

Holy shit.. 2021 needs AD cipher Please come back to the future you beautiful humin

[@dEViN1887]

"my politic too organic to understand it" damnnn i feel that

[@grafforbust]

"... and do we need shoes or should we grow calluses and hold chalices of old gold in shabaz palaces, how many malnourished asian kids have you fed today, is adderall covered by medicaid? Is pacceow welter or featherweight? Is chris angel effeminate? If I thought about it hard could I levitate? Just answer, don't hesitate" FUCKING. BARS.

[@gatosospechosop3]

Pacquiao haha but yes bars

[@elldubs7785]

I'll never, ever get tired of watching this. One of my favourite performances on KZbin any genre.

[@Frosty32073]

Kool's metaphors are the best in the game

[@telequacker-9529]

Visual guitar solo. Hella wavy, "Used to spark a lot in the parking lot You could call me Sir Sparkalot" DAMN son I felt that, 🦆☭🦢

[@panic_line]

one of the greatest lyrical exercises ever dropped

[@Mouchaa]

Always come back to this a few times a year

[@devm8425]

I just come back here whenever I’m lost n need to find my footing again lol

[@devm8425]

[@karltonlittle4347]

Spotify played this for me (audio only). Came to KZbin to find it and got video as well. Kid hit his stride and ran with it. Very dope.

[@incorect8528]

holy shit how many years have i been bumpin this ish

[@incorect8528]

still on the playlist daily

[@incorect8528]

dumby faded

[@CPT_HAMMAH]

This is such a fucking gem for hip hop. When kool actually tries and raps like this it's soooo dope he knows how to spit funny bars and then switch to spitting facts. Forever one of my favorite mcs

[@UltraShield]

Love how it's just Vic and Amaze 88 that are actually doing shit, and even then, half the time Amaze 88 is just drinking a soda or standing around, letting the beat play.

[@asciiangel7583]

fancy seeing u here

The guitarist is killin me lol I really wanna know what that sounded like😂. Track is dope tho what a solid beat

[@justinorel6592]

He's literally not playing it the entire video

[@watcherofthemundane]

That was me. Half the time I'd play 'Nothing' by the hardcore band Negative Approach so that if someone asked I could be like "oh it's Nothing"

[@jumpphuvanat1087]

so the whole musicians at the back is just props and they just play the beat?? 😂

[@zeliavoss]

We miss you Kool AD

[@skptk1]

Lul no shit?

[@justinorel6592]

Clearly

[@ThereThereSquare]

Bet he’s monitoring his guitar and listening to some great jams that will only ever be listened to by him

[@unugeorge]

@@ThereThereSquare nah, as a guitarist i can confirm he's not playing, at least here. he does do real chord shapes but he's playing nonsense, there's no structure to it lol

[@ThereThereSquare]

p.omegranates fair haha me only hit boom booms so only see the rhythms haha

[@charlesgriffingibson]

this is really good

[@joeyisrad178]

for real

[@ChaosApostle]

I asked chat GBT to do an analysis “ In the song “Drum Diary,” Kool A.D. critiques Malcolm Gladwell for oversimplifying complex social science topics and making generalized claims that may lack scientific rigor. Gladwell’s style, which often prioritizes narrative over scientific accuracy, has attracted criticism for appearing to validate social theories without the backing of thorough research. Kool A.D. echoes critiques of Gladwell’s “pop science” approach, implying that his work, while engaging, may contribute to superficial understanding rather than deep insights into complex issues .”

[@joshuaoneal6216]

[@Taylor_Alcorn]

Soo good

[@MaryamLouise]

I know I have to be your top fan for this one. Victor, wow. I know my shit and this is out of this world. I wish you could take that day and put it in a bottle for me. I feel like I write a rhyme like a book report, too. I be doing a lot of book reports though. I was in a band 20 years ago where we would take random objects from the house and use them as instruments and then one person had to suggest a topic, and I had to sing about that and the band, who didn't know each other, had to use the random objects to make a random song. I was the one following them so they didn't have to follow me. You should try this to make people laugh and then ask them to vote. Its so fun. That band was The Lovin Dirty Five Investigation. Its on the Louisville Hardcore Punk History website because I be an elder.

[@funakiisgod1743]

Silent like lasagna when I puff the bob Marley

[@charliec011]

[@justingasior9362]

[@charliec011]

Justin Gasior explain it to me.

[@funakiisgod1743]

Donald Cochrane solid like lasagna? Silent like lasagna. As in the G in lasagna is silent, dumb fuck

[@charliec011]

Kevin Paredes solid like lasagna. Like how lasagna comes out all solid and hard to eat sometimes after you cook it too long? I don't think you should be mean on the internet. No one else is.
