Classified - Anybody Listening Lyrics

Ending 2019.. still listening!!

This song would play before I went to school

Before there was drake the 6ix had him

Master class in sampling

2019 baby 😎🤓

I've been looking for this song all year ago, then i finally find it, by the help of my brother☺.

Cant wait to see him in 3 weeks!

Beautiful!

As a Genesis fan, I LOVE this song! Great use of the loops, and I love how he puts the main beat as the downbeat.

Reppin' the Circa like crazy haha those were the days.

MUCH LOVE FROM NEW BRUNSWICK!!!! CLASSIFIED!!!!!

We all hears class,dont worry from QC Canada 👏💪

Im listening finnaly opened my ears

U.S Version

So that was an amazing song I would absolutely love for you to make a wrap about my intentional community and inventional ideas

canadian eminem?

I seen not to long ago about the release of "Greatfull" you got Snoop to fly out to your studio to record track #2........ Much respect! Make a "king of rap" listen, take note, and bow in respect. Rap is returning to positive vibes -- Much love to and your family, and I wish nothing but happiness and success to you and yours!!

fuck this song.... brings me back to the darkest time of my life..... july 29th 2016

We listening now Class

fuck yeah Toronto

i love all the knock off banksys

It was pretty cool. I'm a huge Genesis fan, and I was singing "is anybody listening, oh-oh-oh-oh, there's no reply at all" this morning, having just really gotten into their 1981 album Abacab (I generally prefer their older stuff, but some of the songs on Abacab are good). My girlfriend said something like "you like that Classified song?". Of course this made me very confused, and I explained to her that I was referring to the Genesis song. So, she showed me this, and.. Now normally, I (admittedly) despise anything rap or hip-hop, WITH THE EXCEPTION of Classified and a few others, Classified specifically since he's from my home province of Nova Scotia. I'm also not a fan of sampling or re-using or "modernising" of old songs since I tend to be a purist when it comes to music (which is why I hate that 'All Summer Long' song, I'd take Sweet Home Alabama and Werewolves of London over it any day). But with that and an annoyingly long comment that I doubt many of you would read all the way through.. I like this song. Only because it's Classified and only because he sampled a Genesis song.

0:29 why is there sum dude hanging from the side of the truck?!

I know I'm from America but can I say I love this guy soooooooo much!!!!!! 👍😍😁😀

Crybaby You don't have to be from the same country as the artist to have him as one of or your favourite artist.

Crybaby was going to say like the rest man, Hip Hop is a nation wide thing, Don't matter If your Black, White, Canadian , American, from Brazil or In the Middle east . music is Music... if it comes from the Heart thats what matters

My favorite rap artist still in 2019

No Reply at All, Genesis (Abacab 1981). Phil Collins, vocal.

Watershed Max Also the sample part.

My classified song. Nice sampling.

Aww, baby face Luke! How fast time goes by!!

I'm listening

i literally love this song i know every word #RIP all the KIA soldiers we remember u

2009 ah the worst year for me

+Cinnamon toast creep why come?

@whistlerpowder because my dad passed away that year

+Cinnamon toast creep Sorry to hear that, friend.

this song samples phil Collins no reply at all

Yes Phil Collins is the singer but it's actually a Genesis song, from the 1981 album Abacab.

bang bang bang, as a lil one use to always hear this

I wonder how they made this video.
I find it interesting because there's such a variety in what they did. Putting up posters and stickers, that's easy enough, but hanging a giant banner off of a building just for a music video seems excessive. Even the graffiti is a mix. Surely graffiti exists but its also kinda illegal.
I'm guessing the banners on buildings is CG, and some of the graffiti is photo-shopped as well, mainly the "is anybody listening" part.

It's all photoshopped, it's pretty easy to see

+MaestroAlvis It's a computer age now. Impossible is nothing.

+byTorrasYT not photoshopped actually the banners were for more than a music vid they were around toronto for months to promote a concert bak in the day

When I heard this song... Why did I think this song was in the 90's?

I'm little peeved that he didn't give Genesis any credit. 

He's fucking sick but look at the special effects haha. I loved the video and his creativity is next level, the choose your adventure idea from his last album was so clever I thought. This is what a celebrity in Canada looks like.

I go to the high school Class went to.

+MoneyHoarder999 Which is that?

MoneyHoarder999 East Hants?

somebody's gonna make a band called declassified :P

class never disappoints me! good song and video!

That's washable spray paint. He got permission to lower that big flag with his face on it.

Classified is so Toronto.

Nah, Toronto's mostly a racist cesspool with people killing each other on the daily. Along with some fucked-up politics and the hate-crimes never seem to cease.

Classified will represent Nova Scotian/Newfie pride until the day he dies.

He's from around Halifax.

+Alex Jirgens Enfield to be exact(:

Enfield kinda reminds me of my hometown!

damn this video is so dope

The question marks in the lights on the buildings toward the end is super awesome!

This guy doesn't remind me of anyone. That is a good thing, I am sure he didn't set out to be compared to anyone. Keep on keepin on bro, I respect your style and enjoy everything I have heard. Much talent us Canadians have EH....lol

He reminds me of eminem

Naah Son, I'm from Denmark and i listen to this guy almost everyday.
Even hoping to catch a show of his when I'm visiting some friends in northern Michigan this summer!

This guy Raps form the heart.

If you listened to more hip-hop you'd know there's a TON of good shit like this in the underground.Search for it man, it's there.

now since im older, i can actually listen to these lyrics properly. you really gotta take in what class is saying.

If more Hip Hop sounded like this......I'd listen to more Hip Hop! :-P
