Joell Ortiz – Battle Cry (Video)


Directed by Jay Rodriquez & Rock Davis for Itchy house Films

Before anything, I’d like to think Seattle for having me last night. Great times. Now, as I’m stuck on this plane sandwiched in between my carry-on backpack and a guy so enormous he had to use an extension piece to buckle his seat belt (no, seriously), I’m trying to get some work done from 30,000 feet up. iPod, take me away…

  11. I was listening to Free Agent yesterday,I was impressed with Joell,it’s a shame what E1 is doing to that dude

  12. Holy shit who produced this joint?

  13. Just Blaze

  14. I wonder what Joell would sound like if he inhaled a good amount of helium. Probably not too different.

  15. It’s a shame that people don’t pay much attention to Joell and this track is just crazy. Top 5 of the year. I can’t imagine many rappers being able to claim they are one world away, but Joell Ortiz is one definitely.

  16. lol popeye forearms!

  17. Loool Yo Mek where the hell is shake homie i miss his ass lol no no homo

  18. Yikes. Way too underrated…

    The fact that guys like this aren’t sitting on top hurts my heart.

  19. Joell = Beast

  20. Produced by The Audible Doctor of Brown Bag AllStars’.

  21. My only problem with joell is that it’s all metaphors and punchlines.
    A good comparison is you can watch a good movie with some classic comedic scenes in it,
    or you can read a joke book. Sure the joke books got a punchlunes and laugh every other sentence, but you never forget that comedic scene cause it is in a great movie.

  22. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO SHAKE??? HE JOINED OUR TEAM #POW

  39. “My only problem with joell is that it’s all metaphors and punchlines.”

    This.

  40. ^^ but he can execute it well…. hes just switching it up a bit his first album wasnt straight punchlines like that and even this album got a couple deep tracks…hes just tryin something different which is why hes been very consistent

  41. SMH!!! A bunch of smart dumb assholes!!! This guy here is the definition of an MC. First off its not all metaphors and punchlines go do your homewok! Take heed!!

  42. @nasiraadig “A bunch of smart dumb assholes!!!” ummm…what does that even mean man? You should be the one doing the homework. Go study the english language then get back to me.

  43. 2dopeboyz, watch out. When I go to the OnSmash website it says it was seized by the government for copyright infringement.

  44. “My only problem with joell is that it’s all metaphors and punchlines.”
    ^^

  46. @BAM93 your a little late on the uptake man everyone knows OnSmash. so you ain’t reporting any new information.

  47. @Treeeeezy lmfaooo popeye arms like shit my nigga lol

  48. Audible Doctor made this beat! Brown Bag!

  49. I thought Just Blaze produced this beat…

    And Audible Doctor did the original..

  50. Just Blaze mixed the album version.

  51. Joell did body the shit outta this. But anyone saying ‘Track of the Year’ needs to go listen to Super Genius by Actual Proof and all his features. That’s TotY, hands down.

  52. Audible Doctor from Brown Bag All-Stars did the beat n Just blaze mixed it down

  53. @johnthebaptist …yeah we all know. but no one knows what the fuck is going on and what is yet to come.

    can we get some incite MEKA…how bout a XXL post on the topic!

  55. @Wiff! yeah it would be good if Meka could give some more insight on this this “COICA BILL”

  56. This is Hip Hop.

  57. nobody told me free agent leaked !!!!

  62. Lyrically NOBODY, and I mean NOBODY, is fuckin with this man

  63. this is tooo fuckin dope, been bumpin this daily since this dropped..

  64. perfect song if you ask me

  65. First, This Freestyle is the best Ive heard In a long Time!!!!! Definition of a classic Freestyle!!!

    Second, I like Actual Proof and the track Genius, but in no way is that even close to this joint.

    Third, All the knuckleheads who complain about every dope hip hop track that everyone else likes just to be different, the latest case here with “Yo man, its all metaphoars and punchlines man”…Who GIVES A FUCK. Its a metaphoars and punchines and its of the best tracks of the YEAR.

    You dummies who said that forget Nas Illmatic and Biggie Ready to die was all metaphaors and punchlines and guess what? Both of those albums are hip hop CLASSICS.

    So STFU all the NERDS who said that or should I say the 2 NERDS who made that or the 1 nerd who said that and the other nerd who agreed. GREAT HIP HOP IS GREAT HIP HOP…. PERIOD.

  69. OH. MY. GOD.
