Aesop is by miles the best MC to come out of Def Jux. It’s not even close. El P has RTJ. But Aesop is literally one of the most prolific MC’s all time. Nobody comes close to touching him

wow this is really tight, I've never seen a live video of Aesop doing Labor Days material ("that album changed my life, maaaan"). I did see him play with Cannibal Ox in that time period, but he didn't have someone doing his dubs so he couldn't really pull it off this way. I saw El on the Revenge of the Robots tour with Lif and that shit was lit. My friend had a Def Jux trucker hat from that show which I think has been lost to time at this point. We were in the front row and Lif stepped on his hand, said sorry and dapped him up, and he probably didn't wash that hand for a week. Now I see Aes skateboarding all the time. Such a trip to be getting older, man.
