This literally feels like a song you'd play as you're walking.

Will do

@S.m0n For real, and the birds chirping in the background of the song is a beautiful touch

As I walked my pitbulls in my shity area this song hits different love it 💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Currently sitting down, but the sudden urge to walk is killing me

deciphering life it self high on sum bombs herbs walkin!... to your destination if none then jus walkin...💯

How does this masterpiece not have over 20 million views?? Goes to show how much people appreciate REAL art nowadays. Denzel Curry’s been one of the most creative and versatile artists of the last 5 years let alone the last decade. Underrated aff

@Nothing Real Right!?!? Denzel has been doing nothing but peaking in his career. The only thing that the numbers shows is that most people don't want to listen to music that makes them think or feel real emotions.

He's really old school, best lyricist from 2016 class, it's just not popping like it used to smh

Great music is too good for the radio

People prefer crap these days

And this is one of the best hip hop songs in the last 5 years or so imo although 4 million is still a lot of views

Only Denzel could blend vocals inspired by the brassy composition from the fistful of dollars trilogy with the old school AND newer hip hop sound so seamlessly on one track. While on top of that making a beautiful music video that takes the coolest sets, cinematography, and iconography from western classics, American sci-fi, and Japanese street art. It’s sick. Absolutely amazing. All of this while telling a compelling and thoughtful story about our real world struggles with cyclical violence, generational poverty, and class struggles. Denzel Curry is a truly generational talent and I eagerly await the day he gets the credit he is owed.

@Dacrook802 Kanye is a hiphop artist who raps, kinda like how Andersson.Paak is a R&B artist who raps. Its a bit of a poor comparison since Denzel’s main focus is gonna be on his lyricism while Kanye’s is not.

@Dappis If we are talking discography, I think Denzel is much closer then people want to admit. Denzel hasn't dropped an album that is sub par. If we're just talking about his music, and not overall cultural influence, I would actually put Denzel as a better rapper then Kanye. Kanye has an ear for beats and production, but as an actual rapper, he kinda falls behind guys like Denzel.

RZA

Ive just started a new phase in my life, new town, new job, new horizons. I love the place, but i miss my people... the loneliness has been hitting me bad. Its hard, sometimes i cry, but this song gives me the strenght i need, Denzel got me walkin no matter what.

🙏🏿👊🏼

Same bro... This fucking shittly feelings.

keep your head up peace and love God

Same here brother, we're gonna make it 🙏

Feels like Denzel's Music is literally only getting better, love this song so much

@Andrey Panarin they were different wouldn’t say they were worse

The Talking Ben Ritual (Speed Gets Ben Back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfH4OoPIgFE

Can't get enough of it

it was still good even back in the raider clan days, amazing how he manages to top his last project every time

@Andrey Panarin That's crazy, I have Zuu on repeat

"I started in a nightmare so pinch me, I'm dreamin' I'm killin' off my demons 'cause my soul's worth redeemin" This is brilliant.

@Ethan Ward shittt that’s sounds lit. Hopefully I get to see em if they ever come to England all the best bro

@Romario just saw this! It was one of the best shows I've been to. Earthgang and Zel are neck and neck with their energy (even though I might give Earthgang a slight advantage there from how they interacted with the crowd and the features they brought out)

RIGHT! swear... My theme song right now

@Ethan Ward ?

@Ethan Ward how was it

Holy shit that switch up caught me off guard. Love seeing artists pushing art forward. Actually doing amazing shit.

I've listened to this more than over 300 times since it came down on YouTube / Spotify. This track goes sooooo hard. Like I don't think I'll ever get tired of this song. Denzel one of the greatest to do it for sure.

This is a PHENOMENAL track. This is not just a song, with a title, and a video. This is literal ART. Denzel my guy, you have really impressed me with this one, incredible

This music video is quality af, and the song is fire!

The Talking Ben Ritual (Speed Gets Ben Back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfH4OoPIgFE

Thanks for your opinion it's so important to us

the "city of god" influence is insane and dope as fuck

this album dropped when i was going thru some shit .. went to see him live and i cried my eyes out while he was screaming on the mic. this that healing music. i gotta buy the album 5 times over cuz this shit mean too much to me

One of the best of this generation. Denzel Curry just keeps on getting better!

Denzel and JPEG are literally true future of the hip hop.

@Why Am I Here? Death Grips and Injury Reserve make some great experimental music

@Sandan Saiyan aye u got any suggestions on who to listen to. Only recently been looking for experimental hip hop artists so if u got any suggestions let me know

Believe me or not but there are a lot experimental rappers as JPEG mafia unfortunately they dont get recognition. But JPEG is awesome anyway

And JID

I’ve heard most of Zel’s hits and have always enjoyed what he’s put out, but this song converted me into a fan. From his Rage cover to Psycho with slowthai…. I swear he’s the most versatile rapper in the game right now.

This song is really underrated. The old school and hip hop blended was really genius This song is on my everyday playlist.

Best song of the 2020’s so far. I have listened to this song almost every day since it dropped and it doesn’t get old.

The Talking Ben Ritual (Speed Gets Ben Back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfH4OoPIgFE

@Smal Mer no

@mutouvhs 333 is his best album you should listen to that

@mutouvhs listen to The Fool by him i liked it alot on my first listen and its really good

@mutouvhs no he is not an inside joke he is very good

I'm killin' off my demons 'cause my soul's worth redeemin' love that line.

I cant get enough of that little beat switch after that first verse. God damn, this is song still just as good as the first time, so far

One of the things I love most about Denzel is that he continues to evolve his style more and more, and it sounds better every time. Evolution is rare in rap nowadays since rappers will just ride with what works until they retire. Can't wait for the album.

The Talking Ben Ritual (Speed Gets Ben Back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfH4OoPIgFE

@Dane LK id honestly put him up there with Kanye and Tyler in terms of versatility.

I don't understand rap nowadays. So many go the mumble shit route, but when you spit like Curry, you will take the crown and will sit back and laugh at the jesters in your court.

Check out caskey he is super underrated, and he has evolved so well

@Royceisthebestrapper same bro, used to bump n64 myself, his vocabulary caught me early the dude had something extra for a 19 year old

This song is an anthem of life. We must keep moving. Thank you for making such incredibly beautiful music ☮️❤️

Denzel You probably won't see this comment but I just wanted to say thanks for the music and being the person you are you are the first artist (When I was younger) to make me enjoy music and your the reason I got more into it because before you I'd refuse to listen to music I hated it now I embrace it so thanks brother I appreciate everything you've done

Dude's been one of my favorites since xxl freshman introduced him. Been a fan ever since. Hell yeah

damn dude, I love this guy so much. Much respect for this song

This song just turned me into a fan. The rhymes, word play, the old school beat, the cinematic videography, shits hip hop gold. Excited for the album if it’s anything like this 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

Inspired; https://youtu.be/UGPRzu1t5BE

@DOIT appreciate it man ! imma give them a listen sometime today for sure !

@PT - YT sure, zatoichi is a new songs from em, that song is going hard mate! also Clout cobain and ultimate are very good songs.

This is melting my 👁 eyeballs right on out they sockets 🤦 it hurts so good…Denzel at an all time high he’s on a God Level it sounds like musically & in his personal life….his entire life story is pain, his entire family. This man has made so many people proud we love you Denzel Curry keep going this is supa hot crack fye 🔥🔥🔥

Rap is not dead. Thanks for developing art to combine meaning, presentation, relevance and cool style.

I will never forget the live performance of Denzel singing this song in Tilburg. The energy was insane

@Jur Same man, it hits different now that we have experienced it live

Knew this song for some time but at that concert it just felt different man. Been listening on repeat since then.

I enjoy that you can hear the intakes of his breath as he prepares for the next stanza. It shows Denzel's ability to actually rap, instead of many modern rappers who cut their verses together piecemeal.

The fact that he switches his flow and the beat was fuckin nuts and he just kept goin mans is insane and very underrated

Shit so cold yo

You could say he was walkin on the beat

​@Liam Marroquin Yeah we all rate him highly. I would say he is just not as popular for how good he is. Underrated implies that he is better than he is rated, but most people that listen to him rate him highly.

@Donzo he is underrated when trash rappers like playbook carti have more clout and not even a ounce of denzels skill

When a artist makes you feel something from a song they make it's a special kind of moment this song really does make you feel like you're walking and Denzel is literally painting a vision for you while portraying a story it's dope man not to mention the amount of bars this man has!

This feels like the theme song for the end of the world. Powerful shit.

Denzel's growth over the years is dope, went through so many different eras

It's been a while since a song gave me the goosebumps I love it 😌

Godly sample, Insane production, and crazy flow's

@pranit it’s the loving touch by keith mansfield

Sample: The Loving Touch · Keith Mansfield

idk but it sounds so familiar to saint seiya OST

Denzel obscenely talented happy to be in the generation that gets to hear his music

One of the best songs ive heard this year🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 thank you GOAT✊🏼

This is legit the best hip hop track I've heard in forever, can't believe I slept on it and Denzel for so long.

2weeks b4 you played in SF, I’d found your new album and was like wow this is so fucking dope. Listening to it like fucking crazy. Day of your concert i was feeling hella fucked up n sad in tha morning and tha rest of tha day. Went to tha show hella on henny n shrooms n you healed me. Went with my future wife I believe also. - TRON

Def sounds like the intro to the album. Very excited for this softer vibe after the last two projects. Please keep up the Tarantino-esque aesthetic

2nd song

@Haemburger With some space western anime like Trigun, Cowboy Bebop into the mix. Ik Zel is a huge anime fan

@trispy cream 0:56 Typography from Pulp Fiction / 2:36 same shot when Django watches slaves / 4:12 he watch blood before die like Kill Bill / 4:06 same shot from Samuel Jackson & John Travolta from Pulp Fiction, etc

Idk if I just looked up Denzel or was recommended this, but idk. I keep comin' back and damn, it's so fresh and has so many meanings to it. That's how a good song works. You can bop to the flows, instrumental and vocals while also pondering about the lyrics. Amazing work, my guy.

shit hits really hard when the second verse starts

Listening to this on repeat. No idea how much I needed this right now.

this must've taken a whole lot to shoot, very well executed 👌

This a stellar first track for the new era. Can't fucking wait for the album!

@Aaron Moen wonder if he planned that with the Stephen Hawking bar too

@Aaron Moen Bruh I thought that was a stretch good to see I'm not the only one

This has grown to become my favorite Denzel Curry track

When we talk about rap legacy Denzel will have one of best in the game.. just straight rapping and killer beat selection. Crazy good videos.

glad there is still real in this game of hip hop 🔥🔥🔥

Denzel is crazy keep up the great work man again 100/100 song keep the bangers coming

this is one of the best written songs i’ve ever heard by zel, every single one of his bars flows into the next it’s like a movie of lyrics almost it’s crazy… also super dope to hear him open up ab his mental health and seeing a therapist, that shit is real and im even more excited for this album now

@MAJESTY MXNT real drug dealers don’t advertise their business on YouTube… so real bro, auto tune is the future, I understand

@JAM Last time I checked, Lil Durk, EST Gee, Icewear Vezzo, Moneybagg Yo, G Herbo, Doe Boy, Pop Smoke, King Von (rip to them) etc. Don’t mumble, rap about the realities of the streets and they really lived what they rappin bout. Try to at least be educated in what it is you speak on before you make clearly inaccurate claims. You outta touch.

@MAJESTY MXNT ah because the future is mumbling about shoes and being a fake drug dealer... i see

@JAM This is an immature take for children still stuck in the past lol.

Denzel curry is next fucking lvl everything he makes is artistic gold, can’t wait for the new album got this song on repeat in my mind all day!

I love it when a song just hits you!! 💯 🔥

This song went so hard live in Manchester🔥🔥

still cant belive i was at his concert just an hour ago great shit❤❤

The sample The harmonising The Jewels The flow and Cadence The visuals This is gonna be one hell of a year

this shit nice 👍🏾

@Green Garlicski ..

makes no sense like how tf he did that

Underrated. One of my favorite artists through the years and that won't change.

this gonna be a classic one day

I love the spiritual aspects of this video. Denzel's haircut is magical and looks like the Merkaba, also spelled Merkabah, which comes from a Hebrew word meaning chariot, or vehicle, and can also be defined also as light, spirit, body. Don't sleep on this spiritual light being.

this is such a good song!! needs to be used in a movie or TV show.

Been waiting patiently for two years and you truly never disappoint, especially when you spend a lot of time on your work

@KeepMovingForward fair enough

@Nick Pena Imperial didn’t have any interludes and was 40 mins long. ZUU (if you take out the 3 interludes) sums up to 26 minutes.

@KeepMovingForward that's almost as long as imperial was though and that was a fully fledged album, same with Nostalgic 64

Zuu really only had 9 tracks, minus the 3 interludes. So basically a glorified EP or a mixtape. Been waiting since TABOO

This album is a masterpiece.

I can get over how hard he snapped after the beat switch , Denzels literally a god of lyrics walking among us

i cannot even explain the way this song makes me feel and how much i love it

OMFG this song deserves much more attention the quality is amazing. Props for the masterpiece! Keep up the good work!

I’m proud to say that this guy is my favorite rapper of all time

2 weeks and no mention of Maxo is krazy. For storybook rap, he's the best on offer right now.

@DieXiety I am not saying curry is bad rapper all I am saying is there are lots of others his generation who are miles better

@bawws that’s not an opinion Denzel has 2 album came close to best albums of the year in every reward and billboards where is jid 🙂

@DieXiety Thats your opinion

@bawws that’s a lie Denzel had 2 projects that came close to best album of the year what jid had ?

THIS IS ART!! Incredible stuff 👏🏻👏🏻

I just got done watching the XXL Freshmen 2016 Cypher and went to check this guy out bc he was kinda the only one spittin bars and damn he really has talent I definitely think he deserves more mainstream recognition

I was home alone listening to this when the 2nd part came on I started dancing up & down all by myself and it felt amazing!

This was Genius, the song is outstanding, lyrics with meaning gotta love it

This song just reminds me of how hard real life hit me outside of school from being so sheltered... it's like life hits you like a ton of bricks and you're just expected to know how to navigate. Coming from a 27 yr old whos led a very dark past, and survived... it does get better. Never give up, and stay strong.💛

Amen

@Krystle Christianson that's true but I only subbed you had a good support system as well from your since you mentioned out of shelter. But I can understand if parents or no support was given

@black queen some people had the luxury of good parents

Wait wait wait I get you feeling like life hit you all at once but I continue to hear this line about not knowing how to navigate and truthfully it's because too many children never listen to parents until after the struggle. My very own children tried to use that "I didn't know, no one taught me" bs and I had to politely walk th back to reality of how I actually did but they chose to not listen until later

The Talking Ben Ritual (Speed Gets Ben Back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfH4OoPIgFE

This kind of harmony between Sound and Visuals is rare. love it

the talent , the lyrics, the meaning... woah

Masterpiece 🔥🔥🔥

Idk why but when I'm driving and the chorus hits, I just want to floor it 😀

This dude can’t miss, he just can’t miss. One of the best discographies

I love how it went from Boom Bap to Trap. Brilliant transition

The concept behind this music video and track!! And how cohesive this whole album is to the concept of "John Wayne" Zeltron truly is a genius in every aspect!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💛💛💛💛💛💛💛❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Give this man an award 👏

Denzel is easily the most consistent artist in the game right now. Always impressing, always improving. Can't wait for the album.

@denzel denzel do you disagree with him or what? He’s not wrong🤷🏾‍♂️ id say he’s “one of” the most consistent ever since the SoundCloud Gen

@Kaieffuckin facts

Song was fire, video matched that energy. I like videos like this where one can spiral off to many different opinions and conclusions like for example the 3 kids playing at the swing set while the school is burning in the background may symbolize how the education system in the US is a hot mess. Slavery, monopoly and black on black crime references throughout. Deep stuff Denzel. Keep doin what your doin 💜
