Bliss & Eso is three people. Two MCs, Bliss, and Eso and DJ Izm on the turntables and as producer. Eso was the first one who rapped, with the thicker accent. He was borne in Sydney Australia. Bliss is the second one who rapped. He was borne in the US, but his family moved to Australia when he was 13, which is why he doesn’t have a thick Australian accent. They have a huge and diverse catalog, and both of the MCs can spit with the best of them.
Found this channel three days ago... I think I have watched about 40 reactions so far. Love em, tbh I have neglected our local talent, music wise, but now I have been pumping out Jimmy Barnes, Icehouse, Powderfinger, John Farnham, Hilltop Hoods and more. Your reactions reminded me of how good our artists were and still are, so thank you. I am also going through your back catalogue to find other gems from all over the world
Cheers for reacting to more Aussie rap! A song I recommend that summarises growing up in Australia is Coastal Kids by Bliss N Eso. JK47 is another rapper who is insane and new to the seen, representing indigenous Australians through his music! Thanks for the awesome content
Love that you did a Bliss n Eso reaction. I’m American but they are my favorite. They are seriously so good and hardly anyone here knows about them. We need more reactions to spread their positivity and amazing music. I’m here for it.
These guys just like Hilltop Hoods have a great catalogue of tunes. Some of my favorites would be Home Is Where The Heart Is - Eye Of The Storm - House Of Dreams - Bullet & A Target - Sea Is Rising - Woodstock 2008 - Moses Twist
John butler trio - Zebra, that’s a good band and first privately produced and marketed Aussie number 1 for 20 odds years which was issued “round about the same era” as this song.
when i supported Bliss and Eso - was one of the best gigs i got to play at, for delivery and song stories. VIBE was hype. otherwise my next was 1200 technics or Scribe.
Hey mate. Only recently discovered your channel. Really enjoying it. Great to see you checking out Aussie content. BTW you have a great voice. Cheers Jase
Thats on you guys bro yall have been keeping them coming man. 💯 if it wasn't for yall I never would have known how much talent yall had. Jimmy barnes and John Farnham are 2 of my all time favorite Singers now
I feel positivity is one of the unique things about Aussie hip hop: at least the songs that hit mainstream (where I normally hear them for the first time) The talk about loving the beat, living the game, how music has changed their outlook etc. Hilltop Hoods is another good example of this; where they talk about how lucky they are that their music has given them the life they now have.
I prefer the original stopping all stations, the changed lyrics in the last part in the restrung version wreck it for me. The rest of the restrung album is amazing, and up until those changed lurics Stopping all station is incredible story telling, but it ruined the entire song for me with that change.
Aussie Hip Hop is poetry on music no bars needed ! Bliss n Eso do it better then anyone! The album this is on is amazing from start (this song) to finish!
Saw the boy's when they were at the beginning almost 20yrs ago at Revolver in Melbourne and threw a bottle of water to Bliss on stage from the tiny bar, still producing great music.
@@BaneLoki It was a great intimate venue and l was lucky because my Sister had a good friend there who booked all the artists and l used to get in free on the door and l saw stacks of mostly Aussie Hip hop there.
I guess for the most part Aussie Rap is straight talking and to the point because that's how we are in general. Another great reaction mate, keep it up.
Loving vicariously hearing all these aussie songs for the first time through you man, glad you're appreciating the messages in all these amazing Australia artists songs.
OMG, Bliss n Eso is criminally underrated! These guys are AMAZING!! This whole album was almost spiritual. React to ANYTHING off this album, and you won't be disappointed. Great stuff! You got a new sub, bro! Cheers!!
8:11 We live in a very sad time where for most people it is easier to not care about others. In a time of performative cruelty and depressing indifference it takes more strength to say *"I DO give a f###!"* than "I don't give a f###.". Hope has become Punk and people that have Dreams are Strong and Determined instead of Naive and Foolish.
Was about to say the same thing... Chill has double and triples entendre, metaphors and I think there will be too many bars for this bloke to catch haha
@A. Melbs Who? ChillinIt? He is Australian, does hiphop. Thats Aussie hiphop bro. He has a grime style, and takes reference from many places. He references American sports and personalities, Australian sports and personalities and UK sports and personalities. Sounds of the scene evolve. Thats like saying old school hiphop in Australia is just American. Flows and structures evolve over time, and each new generation lays a paver on the road of Aussie hiphop to allow new artists to walk on.
@A. Melbs I think you can definitely see the growth... from Bias B, Hunter, 2up, Funkoars, Hilltop hoods etc Too modern artists.. but even say Bliss n Eso, look back to flowers in the pavement to what they do now and its changed. Its all progression. The thing I like with "Hiphop" is it tells and shows the time in which it was created. Hence the "hip"... whats current, popular etc All I can say is I am so glad mumble crap never was a thing in the Aus hiphop scene and the artists have always been about lyrics and story telling. Some more pure dance tracks around the place now and some mixing of RnB which is nothing but good for the scene. Then you have the artists like "The kid Lario" who looked up to JuiceWrld and is now making his own waves. If you check out "Rappertag" you will still see the style you were referring to but glimpses of newer technical elements. The Aussie scene is alive and well.
Bliss & Eso are my favourite music artists, so many awesome songs over the years and their latest album The Sun is my favourite so far definitely worth a listen
I went to the 50 Cent/Gunit concert in Brisbane 2006. Bliss n Eso opened for them followed by Lil Jon. Honestly, BnE were by far the best act of the whole evening.
Aussie Hip Hop seems to have more focus on high tempo and unique beats to get you hyped backed by interesting/fun lyrics. These lads do it really well in a couple of other tracks called 'reservoir dogs' and 'get your boof on ' that are worth a listen
Found you channel a few days ago through a hilltop song. Was hoping you would do a bliss n eso song! 'Home is where the heart is' is another sick beat by them
As a MASSIVE fan of both Bliss N Eso and Hilltop Hoods, as well as many other Aussie Hip Hop/Rap artists, I've never listened to a more lyrical Aussie artist than Seth Sentry, his songs aren't usually as deep and are more light and funny. Be amazing to see you react to any of his stuff. I think you would really like his song Denial (which is one of his deepest songs). Some of my favourites which are lighter in mood are Castlevania, Room for Rent, Train Catcher and The Waitress Song
You would be hard fough finding an Aussie bloke between the ages of 20 to 25 who doesn't know this song word for word. Bliss's verse still makes me buzz if it has been abit since I last heard it. It's just a vibe man. It was cool watching someone listining to it the first time. 👌🏼
Bliss N Eso was the last live band I went to in DEC 2019 before COVID at summer nats in Australia... a grate send off with mates before it hit the fan!
Brooo I actually grew up listening to bliss n eso. I actually live in the same town as Eso and for one of the songs you “really need to listen to” is The Sea is Rising - Bliss n ESO , give it a listen bro if you enjoyed this one! Also really enjoyed this reaction vid bro, thanks man 🤜🏽
I would recommend The Last Kinection. Especially their song Are We There Yet? Amazing indigenous hip-hop group with real bars & great lyrics about the indigenous Australian experience.
One of the things that makes Aussie Hip Hop unique is that we have a culture of Pub Rock so anyone who wants to play live needed to be able to hold their own in that environment. That's why there's often a bit of a rock n roll vibe pops up in Aus Hip Hop.
Bro you have to listen to bullet and a target from bliss n eso and the hard road from hilltop hoods! Our English teacher use to make us write about em. Love from Newcastle nsw Australia ❤
Check out wide awake by esoterik its on the "my astral plane" album, its one half of bliss n eso I think you'll like it. Just for you and bless up are pretty good too
👁👁 ⭕️ And one track from hilltop hoods that features a lot of other hip hop artists that you may want to check out one day is “Rattling the Keys” a killer track
The 2 nd guy to rap. Is from. USA. But lives in Oz. And the first guy to rap is from down Under an half. .cuntry of he s dad s cuntry. ...boom. Great song this one ...up tempo positive vibe song ...not to deep. but sume dubble sided word s ...creative an raw buy not to raw. Dam one that beat switched up its. Like.a Out cast beat .with thay own flow s an voice s that. Stand out. Love it.
Bliss n Eso are absolute legends. Second guy was Eso with the American accent and yeh he got barrrrrrs forever. Eye of the Storm is an amazing track if you wanna see more of these guys
That's bliss n eso's brand.. positivity.. almost any of their songs help you see the good side of life.. They have a song with NAS called I am somebody if that interests you..
I love how proud Australians are of their countries music they've basically hijakced this channel
I‘m here as a German loving aussie hip hop and rap 😂
Aussie here to join the hijack train
@@almostquasi let me add another carriage to that train
All aboard
The train hasn't left yet, has it?
Bliss & Eso is three people. Two MCs, Bliss, and Eso and DJ Izm on the turntables and as producer. Eso was the first one who rapped, with the thicker accent. He was borne in Sydney Australia. Bliss is the second one who rapped. He was borne in the US, but his family moved to Australia when he was 13, which is why he doesn’t have a thick Australian accent. They have a huge and diverse catalog, and both of the MCs can spit with the best of them.
Ahhhh gotcha makes sense now
nah fam eso was the one born in america bro. got them mixed up otherwise everything else is correct.
You’re incorrect, do some googling. Bliss is the one from America.
Yeah bro originally they were called bliss and esotericizm
@@Kalashboy420 No. Bliss is american.
If you're looking for an Aussie hiphop artist with bars, you might enjoy some of Seth Sentry's stuff. Dude is a comedian with a very sweet flow.
Waitress Song is a Aussie Hip Hop Classic!!!
Hell yeah WAITRESS SONG!!!
Seth is good but he doesn't write his own lyrics and it really lets him down for me
Still great tracks though!!!
He has to react to waitress song
@@MrGofkurslf
What do you mean he doesn't write is own lyrics?
What's your source on that?
You explained it correct
Aussie rap isn’t about bars it’s’more of a story rather than hitting a heap of jumps that fans like
Love love love Hilltop hoods - 1955. Good feel song
Found this channel three days ago... I think I have watched about 40 reactions so far.

Yall seriously have some insane talent and if it wasn't for yall I wouldn't have known these people.
czcams.com/video/sbwgyHCm_0o/video.html
Another Aussie artist who's super positive
Cheers for the love, legend!
Love the music
My fellow Aussies are kicking in high gear with the best hip-hop requests, Loving it! 💚💚💚
Cheers for reacting to more Aussie rap! A song I recommend that summarises growing up in Australia is Coastal Kids by Bliss N Eso. JK47 is another rapper who is insane and new to the seen, representing indigenous Australians through his music! Thanks for the awesome content
Coastal kids is a tune👌
Kesher is another great Aussie rapper
Costal kids is iconic
Love that you did a Bliss n Eso reaction. I’m American but they are my favorite. They are seriously so good and hardly anyone here knows about them. We need more reactions to spread their positivity and amazing music. I’m here for it.
i am 58 and i fucking love this. its all about the message. peace and love to everyone.
These guys just like Hilltop Hoods have a great catalogue of tunes. Some of my favorites would be
Home Is Where The Heart Is
- Eye Of The Storm
- House Of Dreams
- Bullet & A Target
- Sea Is Rising
- Woodstock 2008
- Moses Twist
Bullet and a target without a doubt...
@@SilverGirlAu He rocks a few Hoodies so was tempted to mention Happy In My Hoodie, guess I just did lol
Add Watchdog Waterdragons, and Vagina Ice to this list and I agree
@@jiptravolta1 watchdog waterdragons and hip hop blues
House of dreams for sure!
John butler trio - Zebra, that’s a good band and first privately produced and marketed Aussie number 1 for 20 odds years which was issued “round about the same era” as this song.
when i supported Bliss and Eso - was one of the best gigs i got to play at, for delivery and song stories. VIBE was hype. otherwise my next was 1200 technics or Scribe.
Yeoowe!! Hoods ND Bliss n ESO are so dope, more reactions to both these groups!!!
Chuck some Funkoars in there too 🤙🏼
Hey mate. Only recently discovered your channel. Really enjoying it. Great to see you checking out Aussie content. BTW you have a great voice. Cheers Jase
Thank you brother
Yesssss! Keep all this Aussie hip hop coming bro.
Thats on you guys bro yall have been keeping them coming man. 💯 if it wasn't for yall I never would have known how much talent yall had. Jimmy barnes and John Farnham are 2 of my all time favorite Singers now
Man - this is a massive reminder of how much I loved this track a while back... from Australia 🇦🇺
I feel positivity is one of the unique things about Aussie hip hop: at least the songs that hit mainstream (where I normally hear them for the first time)
The talk about loving the beat, living the game, how music has changed their outlook etc.
Hilltop Hoods is another good example of this; where they talk about how lucky they are that their music has given them the life they now have.
Bliss n ESO hand down the best. ESO got bars on bars. Listen to any other song. Tear the roof off bars on bars in that song
Bliss n Eso / Hilltop hoods, the godfathers of aussie hip hop, 4 sure. been listening to both since the start
the prophecy hits the spot for me right now.
Sunshine for sure
Tear the roof features watsky one of the fastest rappers in history
verse 2 is one of my favourite verse's of all times - just the message!!! sea is rising is another by them freaking amazing lyrics
Please react to stopping all stations restrung by hilltop hoods. Amazing storytelling. With an orchestral backing
I prefer the original stopping all stations, the changed lyrics in the last part in the restrung version wreck it for me. The rest of the restrung album is amazing, and up until those changed lurics Stopping all station is incredible story telling, but it ruined the entire song for me with that change.
That whole album is gold
Aussie Hip Hop is poetry on music no bars needed ! Bliss n Eso do it better then anyone! The album this is on is amazing from start (this song) to finish!
Saw the boy's when they were at the beginning almost 20yrs ago at Revolver in Melbourne and threw a bottle of water to Bliss on stage from the tiny bar, still producing great music.
Revolver in its hay days :)
@@BaneLoki It was a great intimate venue and l was lucky because my Sister had a good friend there who booked all the artists and l used to get in free on the door and l saw stacks of mostly Aussie Hip hop there.
I guess for the most part Aussie Rap is straight talking and to the point because that's how we are in general.
Another great reaction mate, keep it up.
They have always been ahead of everyone in production 👍
My favorite song from my favorite Aussie hip hop group!
Bliss ,Eso & Macca they say it. Love life.
These guys are my fav 🇦🇺 hip hop - because they're messages are strong
Loving vicariously hearing all these aussie songs for the first time through you man, glad you're appreciating the messages in all these amazing Australia artists songs.
Bliss n Eso more relevant today than ever before 🔥
Since I’m Australian and I live in the place they made their band and their my favourite band of hip hop/rock they are actually 3 people
OMG, Bliss n Eso is criminally underrated! These guys are AMAZING!! This whole album was almost spiritual. React to ANYTHING off this album, and you won't be disappointed. Great stuff!
You got a new sub, bro! Cheers!!
It's not rap rock, its hip hop, that's the origins of hip hop, jazz mixed with everything else. Speak from the heart and let the world know you care
Only Aussies will truly understand
8:11 We live in a very sad time where for most people it is easier to not care about others. In a time of performative cruelty and depressing indifference it takes more strength to say *"I DO give a f###!"* than "I don't give a f###.".

I remember Hilltop Hoods and Bliss N Eso seemed to become mainstream at the same time. I love the song "Reflections" by Bliss N Eso as well
Awesome 💪
Bliss n Eso have got me through some hard times
Aussie hip hop positivity at its finest ❤️
I loveeeee Bliss En Eso
Australian artist with bars you have to checkout Chillinit
Bliss N Eso and Hilltop Hoods are probably then best HipHop/ Rap artists in Australia
Was about to say the same thing... Chill has double and triples entendre, metaphors and I think there will be too many bars for this bloke to catch haha

Got yrself a new sub! Love seeing you enjoy Aussie content. We are so lucky to have so much talent.
B&E helped me through some dark days . Always brings me up when I'm down
Aussie Hip Hop seems to have more focus on high tempo and unique beats to get you hyped backed by interesting/fun lyrics. These lads do it really well in a couple of other tracks called 'reservoir dogs' and 'get your boof on ' that are worth a listen
Comment comment, etc, push TSingerR further up reacts
Love your break downs xx
I liked this! And that song vid, how awesome was that!
Daaaamn, never heard this before! So good!

Would love if you would take a listen to Aussie artist Briggs' song 'Bad Apples'.
Enjoying hearing what you have to say about Aussie hip hop 🤗
him and AB Original
You would be hard fough finding an Aussie bloke between the ages of 20 to 25 who doesn't know this song word for word.
Bliss's verse still makes me buzz if it has been abit since I last heard it. It's just a vibe man. It was cool watching someone listining to it the first time. 👌🏼
Officially a new sub! Never would have found you if you never found Hilltop! Keep it up! Bliss'n'Eso, Hilltop, Seth Sentry, Urthboy, Illy, Briggs
If it wasn't for the massive austrailian fanbase I wouldn't have know either bro lol
Keep it up, love your vids!
If ya want to hear some bars from bliss n eso check out "tear the roof off"
Bliss N Eso was the last live band I went to in DEC 2019 before COVID at summer nats in Australia... a grate send off with mates before it hit the fan!
Still waiting for my PayPal request for The Angels - Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again Live.
Can't wait
Bliss N Eso's whole message is peace love and unity, another really good positive vibes song is reflections
Positivity
this will get overlooked but you should defs check out Reflections by Bliss N Eso. its a masterpiece
I was just thinking earlier today ‘I wonder when he will get put on to Bliss n Eso’
day made
Brooo I actually grew up listening to bliss n eso. I actually live in the same town as Eso and for one of the songs you “really need to listen to” is The Sea is Rising - Bliss n ESO , give it a listen bro if you enjoyed this one! Also really enjoyed this reaction vid bro, thanks man 🤜🏽
My fav Bliss n Eso song is The Sea is rising
positive tunes ;)
I would recommend The Last Kinection. Especially their song Are We There Yet? Amazing indigenous hip-hop group with real bars & great lyrics about the indigenous Australian experience.
I'd also add AB Original or just Briggs himself
Dope reaction🔥🔥👏
nas & bliss n eso - i am somebody.
Two other aussie hip hop groups are Horrowshow or spit syndicate
both are amazing artists

That’s me cheers for that legend. Really appreciate it.
They did an an awesome song "I am somebody" collabed with Nas
Word??? I GOTTA see that one
@@ThatSingerReactions it's awesome the video is top notch

And a track with RZA from Wutang called, Smoke Like a Fire
Bliss n Eso My Life ft Ceekay Jones is a great song.
Grew up on bliss n eso! Absolutely OGs of Aussie hip hop. Much love
You should react to Bliss n Eso - Art House Audio or Reservoir Dogs if you want a mix of some of the best Aus rappers on a single track
I knew you would love the lyrics in this piece. Thank you again for doing this reaction.
Bliss n eso moments is a must to listen too so good brother
