Rappers React To Slayer "Mandatory Sui**de"!!!

[@Boots_McScoots]

"Blood's cheap, it's everywhere." Fuck, so good.

[@SirBoycie]

Slayer were on Def Jam records at the time (a rap label). They provided the guitar work on the Beastie Boys You Gotta Fight and No Sleep to Brooklyn, and Angel of Death was sampled by label-mates Public Enemy on She Watch Channel Zero.

[@Chaos_IsMyGift]

Was about to mention that. You beat me to it.

[@toddfarrow9541]

RUN DMC was also on Def Jam at the time.

[@notofthisgod32]

It was Kerry who did the Beastie Boys music

[@petertapola8097]

This is one of those songs that are better live. Decade of Aggression -live album version is the best. Tom Araya shouts the spoken verse which makes it more brutal. I get shivers by the end.

[@beefy1728]

Facts. 💯

[@KenBober]

I was and still am a huge slayer fan. 99% of my teachers in the late 80s and early 90s thought I was disturbed until my 6th grade science teacher said hell no slayer is awesome!

[@Lee-ld1gi]

All of your other teachers were right you husk

[@michaelward5370]

Disposable Heroes is the Metallica song that Smokey is thinking of, and it is on Master Of Puppets!!

[@davidmassey6332]

Also Fight Fire With Fire could be used as another example of a song made for war

[@adammayday6486]

Slayer did a collab with ice-t called Disorder. Fucking great song to react to.

[@randywissler9923]

That whole Judgement Night soundtrack was an absolute banger!!!!! SLAAAAAAYYYYYYEEEERRRR!!!! R.I.P JEFF HANNEMAN!!!

[@misterscarisma]

Disorder! Disorder! Don't give a fuck!

[@duncansolloway2497]

the entire JUDGEMENT NIGHT soundtrack is killer

[@dedfishermen985]

Slayer covering “Inagaddadavida” is a hidden gem as well

[@randywissler9923]

@@dedfishermen985 they also did a cover of Born to be Wild for some NASCAR game. Pretty badass!!

[@Megadeth1921]

“ mandatory suicide” is a song about kids being sent off to war. it was mandatory, and it was suicide. I’ve been listening to slayer since they first started in the early 80s and they’re still the best trash band out there. I was at one of their first shows and I was at their very last show. Slayer is just an excellent band.

[@willbarrow8753]

The look on Hollywood's face when Tom did the spoken word part!!!!

[@adrathemetaloutlaw754]

A rap was done with this. Lil Jon and Eastside Boys sampled the riff on this song and Raining Blood. The track is called Stop Fuckin Wit Me

[@JakeFromCLE]

Came here to say this 👍🏻

[@zackzaharko89]

I used to play that song specifically bc I loved the guitar riff in the background, only to discover this masterpiece a few years later on

[@uoabigaillevey]

I actually find it disrespectful for people to sample songs to put into their own. It distorts the meaning behind why the segment that was sampled was originally created with. It also (to me anyway) points to a lack of creativity.. or at least an indicator of laziness on the part of the person doing the sampling. Create something similar or whatever.. but to sample is essentially to steal the work of another. To put it another way.. if I were writing a humorous book about the misadventures of a taxi driver in New York.. and instead of writing chapter 5 myself, I took 30 pages from Stephen King's "The Stand" and inserted them as 'Chapter 5' of my book... (you get the idea, I hope) I am sure many bands do not mind being sampled as long as they get paid for it.. so it's considered acceptable by many for that reason. I do not share that belief, however.. the sampling should not be done in the first place... especially if the song/segment is used in a way contrary to the intent of the original musicians.. like taking a serious song about the loss of a loved one and inserting a sample from it into a party mix.

[@rudeboynofear6554]

I heard the clean version of this song and struggled to find the dirty version. Bass hits hard with relatable lyrics. Cuss words are the glue that holds the song together. The perfect song

[@Tomi_BuzzCat]

Former Slayer guitarist, Kerry King has his solo career, LP, album, ' From Hell, I Rise ' & was on tour earlier this year ...

[@r.deanmcknight136]

For someone who was born in 70, grew up into the rise of Thrash Metal, regardless of how I get, Thrash will never get old. I lived it, loved it and played it.... it's in my soul 🤘😎🤘

[@HammeredReactions]

This is the very FIRST Slayer song I learned to play on drums back in ‘88! 🤘🏼😝🤘🏼

[@erolbulut2584]

A tune about war.

[@Bill-c8k]

Ice T with his thrash band Body Count did a cover of Reign in Blood Very Cool

[@zackzaharko89]

Slayer is so awesome, please continue these reactions! This song is probably my 4th overall favorite of there’s. Lombardo’s drumming at the end though……

[@damonhines8187]

Word for word. Good goin', Smokey 😊

[@vistalite-ph4zw]

Rick Rubin who helped started Def Jam is a metal head himself. He was also known to collab Aerosmith and Run DMC for Walk This Way back in the mid 80s. Rick Rubin produced several Slayer albums...

[@Tomi_BuzzCat]

Next song, video from SLAYER: LP, album ' Divine Intervention ' ©1994 ' Killing Fields ' ' Sex, Murder, Art ' ' Fictional Reality * ' Dittohead ' ( hit song) ' Divine Intervention ' ' Circle of Beliefs ' ' Serenity in Murder ' ' 213 ' ' Mind Control '

[@dvolz1975]

Couldn't agree more

[@Aliensalvation]

I reckon we’re turning you guys. All the metal shirts and metal love. It’s heartwarming

[@madriffmaster]

Awesome. You guys have to do Silent Scream by Slayer. Both musically and lyrically.

[@NicolasAristizabal-rb3ju]

I just happened to be wearing a South of Heaven shirt when I saw this dropped

[@catmanduu66]

Another song similar to this and the Metallica song is Blood Eagle Wings by Anthrax. I think you guys would really like it.

[@mattdenney1192]

You guys gotta react to the next track after mandatory suicide on south of heaven. Ghosts of war is pure thrash

[@Carnifex20]

Oh wow! I only knew the Decapitated version of this song until now. Didn't know this was a cover. Damn!

[@beefy1728]

Slayer is the original, the live versions are better though...

[@haydenwhite4381]

One off their best album's! 🔥

[@michaelward5370]

That run of 3 albums, Reign In Blood, South Of Heaven and Seasons In The Abyss is totally awesome!!

[@bardsimpson1404]

Kerry king played the lead, on beastie boys - you gotta fight for your right to party

[@BlackMarketHoney]

Probably my favourite Slayer tune.

[@dvolz1975]

Slayer did do a "raining blood" version with Ice T...Slayer is Ice T's favorite metal band...yes the two did indeed work together

[@grapeape325]

No sleep til Brooklyn. Beastie Boys featuring Kerry King.

[@JBAKER97]

Kerry King played guitar on Beastie Boy’s Fight For Your Right To Party. The reason why is because Rick Rubin was producing both band’s albums at the time.

[@stoneysopranoyukon9398]

Metallica - most diverse Megadeth - most technical Anthrax - most fun Slayer - most heavy

Public Enemy - "Harder Than You Think" (lyric breakdown) Michael Franti and Spearhead - "Good To Be Alive Today" (lyric breakdown)

[@captindo]

I was a Canadian infantryman, we were taught if captured we would fight till we had one bullet left. That last bullet though, that was meant to deny the enemy a captured soldier.

[@davidmassey6332]

I’d like to see yall do ‘Bitter Peace’, that’s my favorite Slayer song and it’s on my favorite Slayer album (Diablous en Musica’. My song I listened to before every football game was ‘Scrum’, the lyrics are perfect for football (same album)

[@ElDuce69]

Mordred- Falling Away is a cool metal jam with some hip hop flair.

The word 'assassin' derives from the Hashishim. Whatever gets you through your life and helps someone else to the end of theirs. That's music for ya. 😊❤

I love how KZbin is protecting us from such horrible words... 😂😂😂

[@harrihakala3884]

Almost all thrash metal bands were/are singing/screaming about sociological issues. There were a few hybrids between HC punk and thrash metal bands back in the 80's. Like D.R.I., Cryptic Slaughter, S.O.D. (which had members of Anthrax, M.O.D. and Nuclear Assault) just to mention a few. Testament would be the best example of sociological lyrics, even if they are not part of the "Big Four". On my opinion, they would be a part of the Big Five :) Thank you guys again to reach out away from your musical comfort zone.

[@beelzebob23]

Slayer's diagnosis should be psychopathy.

[@mbx6823]

Hello Slayer effectively made a collab w/ Ice-T called "Disorder" btw Ice T is a huge Slayer fan and made some covers w/ Body Count Their cover of "Institutionalized" by ST is amazing

[@bobbybissell4770]

Slayer did a collab with Ice T.

[@mariohnyc]

Ice-T has a song with Slayer called "Disorder". But it's essentially still a thrash song, just with Ice-T singing with Araya.

[@mikey135]

Lil Jon stop f’n with me raps over this and raining blood.

[@iainlindsay6691]

1988 SOH was released. A slightly slower album after the 28 minute Reign In Blood. A lot of Slayer material covers war as a topic. As Kerry King said, 'if you play as fast and heavy as we do, you can't sing songs about butterflies. I seen them live@ Hammersmith Odeon in London when they were touring this album. Crystal clear sound and brutal atmosphere. Thrash gigs weren't about standing around with your phonee in your hand, because they didn't exist. Headbanging and sore neck all the way!

[@Will_Wel]

Check out "She watch channel zero" by Public Enemy. It has a Slayer sample playing the entire song. Let you figure out which one :)

[@maxwellstubbs2510]

Dave Mustaine has collabed with Ice T

[@davidmassey6332]

Most of the soldiers knew ahead time that at the Battle of the Somme and Okinawa (and many other battles) that they were marching straight into a meat grinder. Just two off the top of my head that had extreme casualties on both sides. It’s also well known that during WWII, the Russian soldiers either had to march forward and fight the Germans or if they turned and ran, their own machine gunners would mow them down. That really is Mandatory S**side

[@beefy1728]

Exactly. 💯

Its hilarious that Smokey is really listening to the end vocals and Smokey is just in his own head....

[@descantinginsalubrious]

This song RULES hard when they play it live. South of Heaven is my favorite Slayer record even though there's one or maybe two skippable tracks. Lombardo is god tier on this record. I mean, he's god tier on all Slayer records. This is an effective anti-war song. July 5, 1988 release date. Earth is what's South of Heaven.

[@derkabronen]

This is the first song I heard from Slayer and it was love at first listen. It was so different. I don't know if you do reactions of reactions, but it would be fun for you to read to Vin And Sori reacting to Silent Scream... at least a couple of minutes after they finish the song... to get a lot more of Slayer.

[@necrosiskoc9617]

Slayer never did a collab with rappers but Public Enemy sampled that ultimate riff from Angel of Death in She Watch Channel Zero as they were both on Defjam records at the time

Odd choice for South of Heaven, but I'll dig it! Spill the blood or Ghosts of War are much better than this, imo

I could be wrong, I believe I heard during an interview with Ice-T, that he did a collaboration with Slayer, in the 80's. Around the time he had started Body Count. I don't remember any details beyond that.

[@stephenvangelder3893]

Slayer did not do a collab, but Kerry King did the haunting guitars on The Beastie Boys No Sleep till Brooklyn, and had a cameo in the Fight for your right video I recall. Did they collab with Ice on a soundtrack? Good thrash metal bands hid their meaning behind a mystique of doom and evil, all the time being antiwar and hating on politics

[@pattaccone]

Ice T is a huge slayer fan They did some songs They’re cool

[@chairmanofthebored6860]

One of my favorite songs off this album. This is Dave Lombardo at his best. I'd highly recommend Ghosts of War as well.

Please listen to the entire "Judgement Night" Soundtrack. This may be the most under-rated album in the history of modern music, as far as bringing cultures and music genres together.
