I don't understand why people think using humor or being a funny dude automatically disqualifies an artist from being taken seriously..
Danzig Norberg ikr! making people laugh is the hardest thing to do.
Alexander Lively also the fact that he doesn’t have a body of work or time in the game to constitute him being top 50.
Alexander Lively thats rather racist to exclude him from benefit of the doubt as well as respect for his abilities just because of the color of his skin. Its not disrespectful, its a different take
Rap battles are full of jokes. Besides drugs and the struggle what else is serious.
Alexander Lively he’s 30 lol
I think Lil Dicky’s mission isn’t just to be regarded as one of the best lyrical rappers, but as he mentions in “Professional Rapper ft. Snoop Dog” he wants to show that you don’t have to do rap just one way.
You guys want him to address serious topics, in a non comedic way but it’ll never happen. He’s a goofball. But when you think about it, comedians are typically some of the deepest thinkers. They’re hurt artists. And their response to serious topics is mockery. So Lil D addresses serious concerns like his insecurity of being a white Jewish rapper, by mocking the fact his lawyers are ironically black. You’ve gotta peel back what he’s saying, and after listening to nearly everything he’s put out you start to get to know him more personally (which sometimes even serious story telling rappers don’t come off personal, just lyrically brilliant ya know)
Just my two cents from a fellow Philly guy
ON point! You get it. You have to peel back the layers of LD he has so much commentary in such short verses.
His song molly was serious
For sure. Spot on
Go birds
Russell Westbrook on a farm was quite serious to.
"Can you only get so deep in comedy?" No. You can get mad deep.
Evidence:
Movie Directors: Coen Brothers, Terry Gilliam, Charlie Kaufman. (oscars)
Music: (early) Eminem, Primus, Mr. Bungle, Horse the Band, etc. Tool, a band you have reviewed, has a song called stinkfist. It is a contemplation on the human need to push for more feeling and meaning becoming numb to ones current state. Thus chasing that dragon. AND a joke about fisting.
TV: And I shouldn't have to mention SouthPark, Futurama, and Rick and Morty.
The first time i heard this i was with my friend and LD: Homicide!
Me: homicide?
LD: Yes homicide!
My mine was blown
Lol wut?
@@pain54 Why was your mind blown?
Christian Carter he said as a homicide as question and the song replied as yes homicide
Majestic_ BeatDatMeowmeow yes I literally out loud said homicide? And wow this comment is 2 years old and i got a 100 likes!
Based on George’s reaction to most of Lil D’s tracks, I don’t think he likes him much. He respects his ability to rhyme words, but even after the Russell Westbrook reaction, still doubts him. Dude can spit and has the potential to drop some deep lyrics. He’s choosing to be goofy in an effort to make noise in the hip hop scene.
Yup, it’s almost like they fell into the trap of the song title… they sleepin
George even seems uncomfortable with only saying his name mist of the time. I noticed he seems so insecure trying to come off no questions straight and masculine it annoys me more than the stick up his ass.🙄
If you want to listen to a serious song of his, you have to listen to Molly! He breaks down his feelings toward his Ex and I think it shows a different side to LD.
Joe Stokes a super nice Dicky Song I didn't expect from him.
kurt witte damn man. I went through a break up a week before he dropped that music video. I didn't cry once that whole week and 1 minute into the music vid I was bawlin like a baby. So many feels in that track
Can believe you guys actually reacted to this . You guys are real ones . Do you guys have merch yet .
XhibitioN TV bruh I was asking for this ❤️ they not sleep and these reactions are always cohesive and real.
Basic. Punctuation. Learn. It.
love the discussion and how its not just the reaction then over. you guys actually pause and discuss things. gj!
These guys are introducing me to others genres just as we are introducing them to metal!
U guys talked about dicky needing a more serious song, he made a love song called Molly and it’s really good y’all should review it
Again, the best reaction channel. I comment all the time so I repeat myself a lot but keep posting guys!! Love y’all so much. Your videos always make me smile.
I agree. They break the bars down in detail and make a vey good interpretation of what is being said. That's what I love about music, you could listen to a song many times before you fully understand it.
Y’all are the best reaction channel on CZcams hands down. Frfr
Been waiting for this tbh. Good job yall, keep up the grind.
Jedi Mind Tricks ft R. A. The Rugged Man - Uncommon Valor is a must do. R. A. spits real shit. Recalls stories his dad told him about being in Vietnam
Bryan Blackburn oh my god yes but do the whole jedi mind tricks track not just his verse
Jordan88 I know it's a JMT track but let's face it R.A.'s verse is what most people know the track for. Not to say Vinnie Paz didn't hold his own by any means
Damn I had almost forgot about this one, insane song!
I've been waiting for you guys to do this since it first came out! Great video. I used to hate reaction videos, they would always just watch the video and then say "thanks guys, hit subscribe" or something. You guys actually pause it and talk about it, and have a knowledge of rhyme scheme and structure that few others seem to have. Keep up the great work!
Two seconds of the beat and i had to go listen to whole thing, but then i had to come right back here for you guys to break it down for me.
Phenomenal analysis guys, it really helps.
keep up the good work. best reaction channel 💯
I’ve been waiting on this one and just glad you guys actually can get to it and pay attention to your subscribers while delivering some real ass cohesive reaction. 🙏🏽
This is by far, the best channel! I swear!! I watch your videos everyday!!Great video, fellas!Lil Dickey, my favorite of his is "Oh well" lol
GLAD YOU GUYS ARE FEELING BETTER! Another great video! Lil D has an interesting vibe. I hope he finds his groove. He’s obviously got skill. He sounds like he’s on the verge of really embracing what he’s trying to do with his music. He’s just not quite on it yet.
I've been waiting for this one !!!!
Can't knock a rapper who has comedy in it because slick rick told stories that were funny
There were a few comedy rappers back in the day, that's when it was fun instead of full of lies and bullshit the way it is now.
I've been waiting on this one! Great job guys
Loving the videos guys quickly becoming one of my favourite reaction channel and channel in general also I keep hearing you guys want to hear a more serious lil dicky song so I suggest giving The Antagonist a listen he spits straight bars and flow is crazy as always and would love to see your reaction to it. Keep up the good work, unbiased real reactions.
Been waiting on some LD or Logic for a min! HYYYYPE
Another great video by the GOATS
K. Flay "Make me fade " please. Loving your channel guys as a music junkie. You are inducing me to new music I wouldn't think of grooving on and reminding me of some stuff I haven't heard in awhile. Keep up the awesome work. You always bring a smile to my face!
You guys are the shit. From a metal elitist, who grew up on hip hop, we need dudes like you to help bridge some pretty unnecessary gaps. All music needs respect and you guys kill that point. Keep rockin 🤘
Someone mentioned merch. Free Thinker or Free Thinking and Lost In Vegas work in more ways than just representing a CZcams channel so I think it makes it easier to wear.
Then there has to be a limited run of Ryan and George bobble heads. You can announce those with a bobble head reaction video :D
Wayland C A Vegas skyline with "Free thinker" in cursive would be fresh
I wonder if ya'll made a patch (lovely metal font) would the metalheads wear it on their battle vests?
save dat money by lil dicky. great video concept and production!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
About time y’all got to this!!!!!!!!!!
Been here since yall were on 3000 subs, big up from the netherlands
Finally!!!! I'm happy (:
lil dicky- molly **serious content from lil d**
Naahhh
They need something fire with bars like The Antagonist or Make Belief
Hell yea!!!! Been waiting for this...love ur channel
Just subscribed, honestly i disagreed with some of your reactions and didn't care for the channel, but eventually understood how you guys do these videos and now i love them. Def keep doing your thing man
I actually like little Dicky cause he's funny....you can bump him at the BBQ, in the car, or just having a good time. Serious wrappers I listen to when I really want social consciousness and thought provoking content. Love y'all ❤️. A Perfect Circle " The doomed" or how bout a nod to old school Sly and the family stone " Everyday People" 💕💕💕
The reason i think comedy might not be the best avenue to timeless music is because the wow and haha factor of it goes away after first listen. Like you guys said timeless music is usually more about emotions, because those are constants in every persons life. The wow and haha factor are not constants.
Ima request more modern R&B: Mood - Dvsn
idk people still listen to old Eminem albums
Love the channel, and happy belated birthday to Ryan!
A lot of your viewers probably never heard of this band, but I *strongly* recommend reacting to Umphrey's McGee - Ocean Billy (Live at Red Rocks). This band has a super dedicated cult following similar to that of the Grateful Dead. Since every show is different, their fans show up for gigs over and over again, which means they fill up venues more easily than a lot of bands that sell more albums. (Where I live, they sold out a venue two nights in a row that Megadeth couldn't fill for a single night.)
They do a little bit of everything: progressive rock, metal, funk, jazz, dance music, and even hip hop on occasion. If you do a reaction, be sure to react to a live video/performance, because that's where they really shine.
I've been slacking on watching your guys reviews only so I have a lot of videos to watch I'm binge watching your reviews even though you guy produce great quality content daily, I can watch you guys all day because you guys are, likable free thinking people that aren't ignorant to music as much as some people can be, and aren't afraid of change. Not just in music but I assume in everything religion, science, belief etc.
I've been subscribed since 70k subscribers so I haven't been here long, but I know for a fact that everyday you guys grow you increase the ability to have a different look on life to at least one person. You guys may think you are regular people but to me you are inspirations, and in lack of better terms fun ass people to watch.
I know you guys seen me comment before and I in a way gave you guys praise for your videos, but I really think you should hear stuff like this to really get a understanding of how much of an impact you have on people. I know you guys know that but I always love letting you know how much you mean to me. And you will continue to see stuff like this comment from me and most definitely other people if you guys keep giving us videos and stay true to your format (Which I know you will), you guys are some cool ass dudes, love and respect to Y'all and your families Shalum. (Sha-lume)
I caught that slip, George said lil dicky in this video 😂
Damn! lol
😂😂
Joyner Lucas - Gucci Gang Remix Joyner Lucas - I am not racist
Just discovered you. Awesome. Can not stop watching. Love that you appreciate a witty lyric snd well constructed song. A man really does not fit any one style and who is always changing is tom waits. Any album.
Yes dude was waiting for this video since it first came out
Joyner Lucas. Gucci gang remix is a must guys. If you liked rittz you’ll love this one
Yeeet yeeeet! React to this shit!
chri5 1987 i agree 100%
Rage against the machine - know your enemy
Love you guys!
TrafalgarLaw01 and Killing In The Name
Happy Birthday my man Ryan! I will not give up, Guns N' Roses - Coma, Don't Damn Me, among others, cheers guys!
Siick video love your perception on lil D! You guys made me discover J.I.D and it blew my mind! Now you have to react to his funk flex freestyle!
LD no doubt is a amazing rapper and he is packing the skills to showcase it but if his intention from this song is for him to be taken seriously then I find his case hard to make a verdict. In terms of skill as a rapper I could take him seriously because I know he has the skill for it, but LD always gives off this sort of comedic aspect to me that makes me react like "haha man that line was jokes" and the thing is there are other emotions in rap I have yet seen LD explore deep into. But hey LD is a talented individual and I think he is capable of figuring out what he need to do in the game. Great video guys love the discussion topic.
Nate Baker check out "Molly" & "Darwin" by him. Slightly more serious topics. Still the occasional joke but Molly especially hit me hard... But I don't think he wants to be taken seriously in the traditional sense of the word. I think he wants to be taken seriously as a lyricist. He just wants his talent & pen game to be recognized as one of the best, regardless of the jokes. I think there's a difference there you feel me?
Dude list to Russell Westbrook On A Farm by him. Thats some serious shit.
Broaden your catalog
I personally find him corny as fuck
Tyler Davis Thanks for the recommendation I'll check it out, I agree with his whole talent and pen being recognized thing cuz he showcased his skillset in a whole bunch of his tracks. No doubt he's incredibly talented and I think many artist who worked with him knows he could spit but let's say IF he is talking about it in a traditional sense (what if scenario) I think his discography and rapper persona extends to this dope lyrical comedic cadence (especially his stage name gives of a comedic aspect). So y'know trying to take someone seriously (in a traditional sense) where a majority of of his listings come off funny is hard but I think LD is smart enough to handle that.
You guys are the best react channel on CZcams I would wanna see you guys react to On me by the game feat. Kendrick Lamar I don’t see you guys react to as much street stuff so that would be nice
Thanks for this!! A more serious LD freestyle - make belief
Great Reaction guys! Enjoyed it. Now Time for school. 🤦🏼♂️
Edison Verdugo trueeee
Just found your page, you guys are great!! Love seeing your responses to Rock, Hip Hop and Rap. I have so many suggestions for reaction videos, where to start... Queens of the Stone Age - Better Living through Chemistry, Royal Blood - Figure it out (know that these guys are a bass player and a drummer only but SLAY it). Would also love to see reaction to Run the Jewels
R.A The Rugged Man - Uncommon Valor PLEASE
YES!
Ra the rugged man learn truth
xCaPz Vinnie Paz ft R.A. the rugged man - Uncommon Valor
YESSS!!!
One of the greatest verses ever!
You guys have an awesome channel. I usually hate most reaction channels but you guys actually give relevant and interesting input on the things you watch. I'm enjoying your videos quite a bit. I'd like to suggest that you guys react to some Death Grips. It's really hard to get into for most people but I think that MC Ride (the vocalist and lyricist for Death Grips) is a great lyricist. A good song for you to react to would be Culture Shock. I think you guys would enjoy this. It's fine if you don't though lol.
Love the channel. Have been watching for a little while. Love the free thinking :D You should do Bas - Night Job ft. J. Cole
On the topic of: "can comedy go deep", meaning as an art form. I believe it does. Comedy allows you to cut through taboo, or bring up topics that would normally make people feel uncomfortable. Open the newspaper right now and read the political section. You are almost sure to find and least one comic drawing depicting social commentary. Comedy is like Novocaine when used correctly , it helps numb the pain so the knife can cut deeper. You start off laughing, but then think about what was just said. Why do you think comedy news shows are so popular? Why was John Stewart so good at his job on the Daily Show? Why is Last Week Tonight with John Oliver able to drive his audience to crash government servers petitioning net neutrality? Comedy is more than just jokes. Dave Chappelle was pointing out glaring issues in our justice system over a decade ago when he said " Just sprinkle some crack on them", talking about police framing. When done right, comedy can be just as beautiful and inspiring as any master work in a museum.
Even in the examples you used, the topics that seem to have subconsciously gained your respect 'taboo topics', are topics that are still serious in nature (even if there is a comedic veil being used). That's not necessarily what we have seen from Lil D (although we have not heard his entire catalog). There is a content bias in terms of PRESTIGE that exists in society (whether we like it or not). This would all be irrelevant if Lil D didn't state that he wants to be mentioned amongst the elite's (AND PERCEIVED IN THE SAME LIGHT AS THEY ARE) when it's all said and done. To be elite, your music needs touch people, move people, inspire people on a grand scale (not just your fan base). Your music needs to have IMPACT and stand the test of time. He will need to 'mature' his content dramatically in order to make a stake to that claim imo.
I'm not saying Lil D has that kind of music yet. I was commenting on the point you raised. I thought I heard you say, and I'm paraphraseing, "can comedy rap be taken seriously". I think it can be if done right.
I agree with Jeremy wholeheartedly here and, to expand off of his point, I think the very thing Lil Dicky is trying to do here is disprove what you both are saying (i.e. that to be taken seriously as an elite rapper, he has to mature-up his content). I think LD implies and outright states specifically in “Professional Rapper” that he’s trying to get the “rapping elite” to understand that you can qualify as an elite rapper and communicate to people on as (if not more) meaningfully a level with comedic rapping as you can with more traditional rapping (which i think we all can agree is typically either angry, confrontational, serious, or just straight braggadocious). He’s essentially saying you don’t have to have an impoverished, marginalized, or fucked up background to feel the things that the most well known/traditional, “elite” rappers are exuding through their lyrics. And that you shouldn’t have to have serious lyrics to be taken seriously because: 1. Comedic rapping can communicate these more heartfelt emotions and messages just as much as “serious” rapping. And 2. Because comedic rapping tends to cater more to this audience because they often feel guilty or unqualified for relating to “serious” rappers songs/lyrics given the fact that they don’t share backgrounds as oppressed as said rappers. Not to be too colorful, but he’s advancing the craft by light years in my opinion. The fact that so many elite rappers are hopping on tracks with him, to me, is only proof that they see this. I could be wrong, but it sounds to me like y’all are characterizing him as more akin to Weird Al than The Game, and that shit’s a goddamn travesty. Love the content though and agree with most of yall’s other observations in this vid.
Listen to Hive by Earl Sweatshirt ft. Vince Staples. Or Lift Me Up by Vince Staples
Yo love the vid as always. Would love to see some more Rittz reactions. Too many favorites to request. Just throw a dart at one and react to whichever it sticks to... Cant go wrong lol
New to your page and I love it. Yall showed up because of your 46 and 2 reaction. Yall should do APC-Judith
as if you guys on 167k been subbed since 5k, keep doing good
metallica - one
pantera - domaination (live moscow '91) must watch vid tho!
or laid to rest - lamb of god
please!!!!
I feel like I need to put it on every single video you guys have. Jarren Benton Sway Freestyle! You owe it to yourselves.
Great content like always guys, keep up the good work! You guys need to do another logic reaction, I feel like y'all would like rapman
The City by Game ft. Kendrick. You might have already heard it though
And if so, you already know what im talking about !
More logic by any chance ? Is it coming back ?
love this channel
Omg another song that I like this channel is awesome
You guys should do a podcast!
Another great video guys. Definitely suggest Joyner Lucas - I'm Not Racist
So. I am a metal head! Love your Megadeth/Metallica videos. But my boy played me some newer rap. And my influence in rap was old school 80's 90's gangster rap. But this dude called Atmosphere was awesome! It's like old school easy listening rap. Chill but cool. So if you could do, Atmosphere best day. Right on! Love your channel. Keep it going! Love that you guys do it all! Keep it real! Thanks
This is some hot shit! Keep it up guys, y'all rock 🤘😀✌️
Metallica - Spit out the bone
Loved the amount of effort put into the reaction, keep doing your thing guys. But I totally disagree with you on whether or not his style is sustainable. There is NO doubt this dude's here to stay and is slowly converting the non-believers. He will continue to grow his fan base by out-rapping today's wack artists and doing the comedy thing simultaneously. He's created his own lane. How could u sleep? :)
Also, react to some Rage Against the Machine!!
The point that was made wasn't regarding sustainability. Will Lil D be taken seriously as an Elite rapper (outside of his fanbase) with the content he is currently using? Will the people who are OF the culture or the purists look back on his work and mention him amongst the greats with the 'type' of content he makes?
I️ been waiting for this like the new iPhone
Just had to say WADDDAP to all THE FREE THINKERS. Ryan....George..... I'm waiting on dat merch. Need a long sleeve black tee wit a hoodie.
Hey fellas! Man I'm gonna keep it 100 with ya"all, besides mainstream shit and some old school dre, snoop, T, etc, I've never really listened to it much but the way you all broke down the meaning, structure of the song, made me reevaluate the way i listen to rap/hip hop. That's fucking awesome but I'm really digging this guy Game. Bopping my mtherfcking head. Love it guys! BTW, Parkway Drive "Crushed". Come on fellas please react to that! Thanks, free thinker out!
if you are liking Game i suggest you give his older Album "The Documentary" a shot, its from back when he used to be cool with 50 Cent, they compliment each other well in that album whenever 50 was featured.
Game honestly hasnt dropped a bad CD.
He was in g unit also
Lil D is something else. Love the videos guys keep up the work. Definitely do Joyner Lucas I'm not racist and ill mind of hopsin 9
They gotta react to Lil Dicky We Made it Freestyle thats his best work imo
Cody Tye said they wouldn't do I'm not racist
Hi Guys I discovered you few weeks ago and I became addicted to your reactions on many different style of Music you rock guys and you are open minded about music in general even if it s Metal you have all my respect if I may recommend you something you should try the Band Upon A Burning Body the song Sin City ;)
About damn time 🔥🔥
Can you throw some Andy Mineo on here or NF. Maybe 'Know that's Right'--AM or 'Therapy Session'-NF
Rise against - Prayer of the refugee
Mora lol
this would be interesting
he's funny and nice< I grew up on 80s and early 90s rap< its all been said before< over and over..... he's new and different and I'm thankful for that.
I really like him...I just can't imagine driving around listening to him like I do other music. I'll binge on his stuff once in a while, but he really needs to switch it up if he wants the recognition he deserves IMO. More Tool, Chevelle, and 90's anything! Thanks guys :)
Still waiting on One by Metallica... good stuff as always guys
React to Joyner’s 2 new tracks. I’m not racist and Gucci Gang remix! He killed both of them. Don’t sleep on Joyner 🙏🏼
game stepped on this track and took over completely, one of his best guest verses.
Oh lord really Lol D omg the name alone is killing me, the funny thing I told a tenant in my office today if they wanted a good laugh to look up his video pillow talk. 1cause it’s so dumb but entertaining & my favorite part was him asking the girl how was it lmao
Do the song Molly by Lil Dicky he is more serious and singing about love and a break up.
I completely disagree with their take on comedy. Have they ever heard Chris Rock or Richard Pryor? These guys can talk about some serious subjects while making people laugh. The hole point of comedy is to talk about uncomfortable things.
Correct but is Lil D providing the same depth in his content as Richard Pryor or Chris Rock? Have you heard any of Lil D's content? You're ignoring the context of what we spoke of in the video.
His mission is to show people that rap can be done in different ways.
Best reaction vid guys, down to earth. I wonder have you/would you review the music/video for Aphex Twin - Windowlicker. Can still remember first time I saw it on late night MTV. intrigued me to no end.
React to Joyner Lucas I’m not Racist and Gucci Gang Remix
Tool - Lateralus. Please sirs : )
tool - Lateralus
Stinkfist also a good choice
Yes please.
Would also be curious to know if they spent anymore time with 46&2 after they got the reaction out of the way.
Yeah, been wondering the same thing.
I just came across your channel yesterday and I'm loving the content. Thank you for your intelligent criticism. I enjoy listening to you critique both rap and metal. I just watched your Q&A #3, and I agree wholeheartedly with your opinion on mumble rap. I can't understand how it has become so popular.
I will happily enjoy the videos you continue to put out.
I doubt these suggestions will get you to do any reaction vids since I don't think there are any other subscribers that are suggesting these, but maybe you'll read this and it will at least get you to give them a listen during your daily lives.
For rap I'll suggest the UK rapper Scroobious Pip. His song "Introduction" is perfect to see his style.
And I love your video reactions to Gojira, so I'll suggest The Contortionist and their song "Absolve". They toured with Gojira last year.
And just a fun idea, a reaction video on who did it better: Taylor Swift vs I Prevail on the song "Blank Space".
Finally lol great video guys
Yelawolf "Pop the trunk"
Y'all really not gonna do Joyner Lucas - I'm not Racist
Naw they not and by the day people are gonna move on to the next big reaction video so on to the next
Love the channel. Some requests for you. A bit more underground but I would like to see your reactions.
Iceage - Ecstasy
Deafheaven - Brought to the Water
The Horrors - Sea within a sea
👍 and keep up the great content.
Great Van Fleet - A Change Is Gonna Come
Both you guys will enjoy it. I have a really good feeling both of you will add it to your playlist as well.
