Danger Mouse & Black Thought - Violas & Lupitas (Official Audio) 

Its disgusting at how underrated this is.

If this was dropped in the 90's it would be praised among the classics. Fucking insane that we got a album like this now

This whole album is a fucking journey. Incredible beats with knowledgable MCs spitting real lyrics.

This one right here is hard! Beat gives me a DOOM and Madlib production vibe.

That Harlem Nights sample with the beat is so perfect.

This whole damn album is absolute gold.

This should have 10 billion views

When the fourth wall opened the sheep went back to sleep

This instrumental just speaks to me. So smooth and it just flows so well. That old Harlem nights vibe with the beautiful violin and deep bass booming in the back. So majestic and actually makes me think of all the classy Black ladies as well as the days when Black people were united.

Never no matter like a vacuum now I turn your speakers in the back room to mushroom clouds We on that jet fuel, about to go to Neptune, wow That ain't a flesh wound, they 'bout to lay your headstone down I'm supreme, my jean jacket for the shoot was Jean Gaultier Philly, PA we been gettin' ours the brodie way 🔥🔥🔥

I haven't listened to an album like this for a while. This generation don't know the value of this Master piece.

"And I'm living in A FUCKIN' HOVEL!!! ......I mean that bothers me" such a Hard fucking delivery on that line.

This album is a god damn modern day classic

No gimmick. Pure Hip Hop here. East coast , NY style shit. Hip hop have come out of its coma with all these legendary albums from Griselda Records. Nad, Apollo brown, Black thought, Flee Lord , 38 spesh, Marco polo and Masta ace etc...Amazing

"When it comes to drama I'm a young Sidney Poitier" Black thought!

This is easily the best album I’ve heard in the last decade, regardless of genre. This is crazy, makes me want to roll an el producto and listen to it again 🥵

humanity at its dopest

I got no more words to describe this Klassik!

The breath is pulled from my body, damn this song is beautiful

Dangermouse is different, man. This is a sample from music i had no idea anyone else knew about. And Black Thought rode the beat with perfection. I'm emotional right now, frfr.

Peace Black skin somewhere between Violas n Lupitas.....!!!! Classic project ✊🏿🙏🏿 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

If this particular MC made the choice to state that there is not another rapper dead or alive that can go harder lyric for lyric, you kinda gotta just let it be. Or write your best shit and measure up. Thought is the Grand Master

Yall know not ta sleep on me like Don Quixote...are yall hearing these gold references?!?!

This beat is beautiful

Ez album of the year so far. Haven't heard one this good end to end in a while. Next album Danger Mouse & El-P with El producing and Mouse rappin.

Black Thought . Your timing and your ryming is in f###### credible. You are at the top of the list in this world hip hop . You hold the torch my brother .

This is the best song on the album

Album of the year!

this is the flyest track i heard all year. this is gold right here...

Holy shit this album is what I need rn

Thought is waaaay way up. Voyager 1 status.💪🏽😎🤞🏽🇵🇷

The Harlem Nights sample in the beginning brought me back.

Oouhh Weee I thought only Jay Electronica and CL were so smooth... Nice to hear Black Thought expressing for the original creators. Peace 2 Da Thought and Danger Mouse. Can't wait to show you my Pen Fold 👆👑

A rare example of a perfect kick, snare and bass line all on one track

Sometimes all generations,genres and eras of hiphop must recognize greatness at the same damn time!!

What a Hip Hop Album is supposed to be!!!

Heavy Gratitude, once again. Ps Peace To Marcus, The Garveyites and Sidney Poitier

This album is genuinely incredible, from start to finish. There's very few albums where I can say that it remains consistently good after the first 4-5 tracks. Obviously there's a reason why artists do that, open with your strongest and all that. But not a single song in this album drops below a great for me. This album is just hit after hit and this song just leaves me wanting more. An incredible album with the best possible ending, one that only makes me want to go listen to it through again.

shittttttt this hits me at a sentimental spot. A sound i have been waiting to hear.. good stuff.. Been a while and it lifts me up

I would listen to an instrumental of this for hours

"Tell these chauvinist crabs it's over with."

Modern day classic!

Wow…..why can’t more hip hop be like this? One of the best albums of all time! 🔥🔥🔥

best rap album since TPAB. Black Thought killed it.

The way Danger switches the snares!!!! Tough!!!!

@Black Thought NEVER gets the credit he deserves. 🖤

This is an incredible closure this flawless album!!!! I love this!!! Idk why it took me this long to listen to this!!! smh lol, oh well!!! This is absolutely mind blowing how great this album is!!! But no surprise with Black Thought & Danger Mouse!!! This might be one of the hardest closing lines to a Hip Hop album!!! This is why I love Thought!!! And Thought is shaping out to have one of the best catalogs in Hip Hop!!! That's a fact!!!! Nothing but fire yet!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💥💥💥💥

When you get a song with your name in it then you made it. 😏👍🏾🍷 Cheers to Viola Davis and Lupita Nyong'o. 💓

Black Thought ladies and gentlemen........

bro its already over again. restarting album a third time in a minute.

“When it comes to drama ima young Sidney Poitier” tough this entire track is tough I gotta check out the entire album

Just the Intro waters my eyes....jesus what a track...what an album.... masterpiece

Been a minute since I had to sit down and decipher lyrics.

Best accumulation of lyrics on an Album, Ever...EVER!

it really doesn't get better than this

Big Fan. Thank you those involved

This is beautiful music. It inspires me to be better in every aspect. "I be choppin onions till my eyes hurt"

Danger mouse is incredible ! what a talent from Sparklhorse to Karen O and then Black thought . He's fucking brillant

Great closer on the album. Ghost would’ve been fire on that beat as well. Either way 10/10

I love this

Already timeless, sensational album

Brilliant collaboration. Smooth...

Start to Finish 🔥🔥🔥

PRAYIN FOR A BLACK THOUGHT AND BROTHER ALI COLLAB!

sheesh.. tough beat and matching bars!

Thank you for the amazing albums glad to see one of the goats still in actions

Danger Mouse is a huge inspiration to me and I WILL produce a song for him one day.

Amazing album man. Definitely gettin a vinyl of it soon lol

Everytime I listen to a single song from this album on my playlist. It sucks me back in with this force. This is by far AOTY for me for someone who's never heard of danger mouse or black thought before this. The beats/instrumental tricks are infectious and the lyrics are hard hitting, clever, and puts in the effort to match the power of the beats. All together creates an experience more than an album

"Violas And Lupitas" I mean, if it was up to me, I'd give you jigs just enough money to function So when I see you guys with the, with the fancy suits and cars and nice houses, and I'm livin' in a fuckin' hovel! I mean, that bothers me Ayo, juke joint party lights lit the Harlem nights Peas and rice made a Judas out of Garveyites Mamis in the heights always call me nice Someone all his life, rolling dice that was dirtier than gaudy ice My only vice is fly merch My concert fashion gotta stay up to par, we doing God's work Forever dipped like Fonzworth And mines got bunions because I be choppin' onions 'til my eyes hurt The future brighter than cellos and violins fortified With eight essential minerals and vitamins on the side I'm overqualified, but I'ma come along for the ride With Q 'cause I been anticipating this homicide Never no matter like a vacuum now I turn your speakers in the back room to mushroom clouds We on that jet fuel, about to go to Neptune, wow That ain't a flesh wound, they 'bout to lay your headstone down I'm supreme, my jean jacket for the shoot was Jean Gaultier Philly, PA, we been gettin' ours the brodie way When it come to drama, I'm a young Sidney Poitier Y'all know not to sleep on me like Don Quixote Since the glory days like Springsteen, I been clean Any garment on me, that thing mean My inseam 32 Get it, the king, they're not worthy to The legendary crew do more numbers than you heard we do So tell these chauvinist crabs it's over with I'm a clover-list, rollin' that gas that's odorless Got the bad bunnies shakin' they asses low to this German motorist, cake and that cash could flow to this Musa Keita toss the carry-on luggage to agree to my black skin Somewhere between violas and lupita, go ask them About the gatekeeper, world leader Kill shit quicker than Usain could run a hundred meter

I no longer own a turntable anymore, but I just bought 2 copies (black and red) on vinyl...👀

This violin sounds reminiscent to that of That’s that from Born like this, am I the only one?

NEED DOUBLES OF BLACK VINYL....THANK YOU.

This shit is classic! Why can't they play music like this on the radio instead of that mushmouth bullshit that's ruled radio the past 12 years!
