This is my earliest tweet of tweeting his lyrics. I loved how he mixed christian metaphors. He responded to me once but I can't find the tweet. RIP

"Was steady pride, try to show you every side
I give it life, but write like I already died
No petty fray, every day I hail the truth
Let it spray, never say Ka failed the youth"

This boy wasn't spoiled but still rolled
With a spade on me
The truth is I had juice 'cause I
Always kept a pair on me
And our fields was no meals
Just forks in the road
Kept it coveted for the public with
Beloved I'm talking in code
Was unfortunate souls
In the hood where good are offed in the road
Mindless discipline made for thicker skin
I forged at the toe
For the filth that grew me
Built immunity to deadly venom
Some might not know the right rites of
Passage if I never pen 'em
Seems the team had good genes
But wanted better denim
Tools that you walk with make a movie
A short clip if never extend 'em
A child made for feral blend ready
To wild 'till the world end
For my supplements stood up against
Anything the world sends
For years lost still we was fortunate
'fore I had a girlfriend
But thorough ladies made thorough babies
Thorough men wasn't from an esteemed hood so
Being good tough for me
Make for bad recipes when necessity is luxury
Covered the bond I went above and beyond
If I had trust in me
Was told as youth become a mute
If ever in custody (Say nothin')
Once you get aggravated with
All that fabricated, come fukk with me
(Come fukk with me, word)

It’s beautiful seeing the outpouring of love im seeing on my twitter TL. We lost a legend. I hope he knew how many people revered his pen and output. His dedication and mastery of his craft was something to behold. I was late to train (Descendants of Cain 2020) but I’m glad y’all put me on to his music. It’s getting cold outside and that’s when I enjoy listening to KA the most. One of the most chilling and menacing rap voice I e ever heard. I’ve gone back and listen to his pass work but I still got more digging to do. I’m thankful I got to appreciate his work before this moment. I hope at the very least his fans can congregate and share how much they admired and loved his work.


RIP Brownsville Ka

One of the illest lyricist to ever grace the game.

Can't believe it :snoop:

I was just hoping for a Ka and Alchemist album and now there's no chance of that happening.

It just started getting chilly and I always play Ka heavy during fall and winter. The music is going to hit different now.

One thing that bothers me is 9/11 first responders usually had diagnosed health problems. It says he died unexpectedly so I hope it's not a suicide or overdose. I can't see either of those things being the case though.
