Guess we should've told them that Kendrick and J Cole were using each other's beats
Kendrick is rapping over 'A Tale of 2 Citez' by J Cole and J Cole is rapping over 'Alright' by Kendrick.
These two songs came out on black friday 2015, when hype for a collab album between k.dot and J cole was at its highest.
J. cole never did release anything that February.
A Tale of 2 Citiez was released in the 2014 FHD album, so It's not possible to be released in 2015
@@29DarkBoy What? That is the dumbest thing ive ever read
Kendrick released Untitled unmastered next month tho
@@Boog1137 2014 forest hill drive was released in 2014, thats what he means
@@29DarkBoy he meant these two songs. not the original 2 songs.
😂 "not one we can sing along to"
TASH made me laugh
i read this comment before it happened and i still died. so good
The brilliance of this starts in the Album art (the picture). 1. J. COLE is much taller than Kendrick, so Cole stands and Kendrick sits. 2.Then kendrick's Name is put higher and Cole's name sits. 3.then in the background they're leveled up centrally and do not face each other (challenge)
The goal being to make them look as equal as possible! Props to whoever did it
Damn i did not see that way. Thats crazy
they tried their best to make it look equal but still kdot washed cole
@Christian way back when I first heard this I thought the same thing but the more you listen to it I think Coles verse really killed just in a different way, but I do still think Kendricks verse was superior.
@@noname772fp2 I enjoy Coles verse too but Kdot just did so much more in his verse than Cole did
👌
They rapped over each other’s beats
The beat Kendrick rapped over was J coles “tales of 2 citie”s beat.. j cole rapped over Kendrick’s “alright” beat
Did people actually expect them to get it? They should've listened to Alright and TO2C first.
Facts, I don't get why they didn't hoenstly
Well everyone just spammed Black Friday, barely anyone mentioned Alright and TO2C, so they didn't know and just reacted to Black Friday. I blame the viewers lol.
Bro Bourchier because people think Black Friday is the best thing ever, when it's just good. Even as a Kendrick and J.Cole fan this was just lyrical gymnastics and they have better songs to showcase that.
OH MY GOD! GUYS ITS ACTUALLY HAPPENING. WE'VE SPAMMED OUR THUMBS OFF FOR THIS 😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🔥🔥
thumbs up can influence the future
thumbs?
Theo the Goober 👍
you shoulda told em to listen to the original songs first to be honest.... (a tale of 2 citiez and alright)
shoulda told em to listen to the original songs first to be honest... (a tale of 2 citiez and alright)
Now react to Alright by Kendrick Lamar and Tale of Two Citiez by J Cole !!!
Zemar Qazi lmao
FR tho
Before I watch the video may I say Thank You. This kind of thing, as little as it may seem, is what is needed to bridge the cultural and international gap and bring us all closer to understanding each other. Much Respect!
Facts well worded
Was literally watching another video and saw this on the related videos and audibly said "They finally did it"
JD, Simon, you guys are one of the best reaction channels out right now. Know that.
Master Director true that.
Facts
Zias #1
DANIEL MUNOS maybe if they were more active
Dontai like #1.
Two of the most genuine dudes I have ever seen on this platform. Respect.
Brian Nipplebutter bubbles
Really glad to see you guys finally getting some merch to make some money! You're spending tons of time making these videos and surely not making much income from TH-cam due to copyright laws.
Nice to see Black Friday as well!
What do we complain about now I feel empty
Hennock Amelsom look out for detox
We complain for them to listen to two 16s by valee and survival tactics by Joey bada$$
now we get them to listen to Alright and A Tale of Two Citiez
Hennock Amelsom ASAP ROCKY 1 train
now we spam in the comments for them to react to Drugs You Should Try It until they do so
You guys literally just made my entire week man. Watching your reactions really help me keep my head up. Good job mates!
Kendrick is rapping over a j Cole beat and Cole is rapping over a Kendrick beat. (Fun fact)
Adam B This is pretty important to know, actually.
It probably helps to explain what that means. I gather from how they spoke about it, they may think they produced the beats for each other.
So if you guys are reading this, they rapped over each other's radio hit singles with their own freeform/freestyled raps. Check out 'J Cole - Tale of 2 Cities' and 'Kendrick Lamar - Alright' for reference.
What I like about this channel is that the n-word doesn't make them angry. They just joke it off and be like "well, we can't sing along to this song" and it's funny. They aren't trying to say the n-word or are bothered by the fact that people would get upset if they said it. They just brush it off and talk about the rest of the songs content. I'm a new subscriber because of that! Thank you. And you guys react to my favorite songs!!!
Clicked immediately I saw Kendrick, j Cole, metalhead
React to Black Thought freestyle on Flex
Kickinthescience they’re prolly not gonna understand references in it. Even to a seasoned listener such as myself a lot of bars went over my head. Lol
Best freestyle ever
Kyle Twitty Honestly if you don't understand the bars that freestyle was impressive in every category.
Trill Hours I agree it’s the best ever
this
You have to listen to the original songs! Listen to Alright by Kendrick , which is the beat that Cole rapped over, and listen to Tale of 2 Cities by Cole, which is the beat Kendrick rapped over. Also listen to Forbidden Fruit by J.Cole ft. Kendrick, one of their few songs together.
*Isaiah Rashad - Heavenly Father*
They should do "shot you down" by Isaiah Rashad
Joe C The remix with Jay Rock and Schoolboy Q!
Can you guys like this to help them em out. Don't use TH-cam videos for lyrics,everyone uses the website Genius which has all rap lyrics,you can just play the song in the background. Loved the video :)
you should react to black friday by kendrick lamar and jcole
ӂ̴ -MATEEN- ӂ̴ oh shit you right
Facts
Yall dum af
@@goon4l60 woooosh
Bruhh wtf you think their doing right now
Kendrick is rapping over the J Cole song "A Tale of Two Citiez" beat and J Cole raps over Kendrick's song "Alright" beat. You should react to both of those!
Money Trees - Kendrick ft. Jay Rock need to do this one
waited for this video to promote some merch. nice move honestly haha. hope you guys keep growing at a mad rate. i've been watching since your gang related reaction and it's just beeen crazy to see how much you've blown up.
“Dense lyrical madness” I like that😂
Kendrick is rapping over A Tale Of 2 Cities which is a J cole song from his album 2014 Forest hill drives and J cole rapped over a kendrick song from his album To Pimp a Butterfly called Alright
Big L - ‘98 Freestyle
Big Pun - Twinz (Deep Cover ‘98)
Jecari Uchiha yesssssss
Fabian Valenzuela Tres leches would be better imo
Facts
Fabian Valenzuela 98’ freestyle plays once a week at least! Every week. Isha’ boi “jayz” voice lol
This video coming out and Astroworld being announced for Friday at the same time, today is a good day
This didn't age well
The guy on left looks like johnny sins
Thank you guys. I've been fortunate to see you two from the start. You two are fantastic to say the least and have really impacted my perspective on music. So thank you!
Please do Kendrick's "The Heart Part IV" and "How Much A Dollar Cost" !
I'm Markeeyh don't tell a lie on me.....
@@Rugbiii I won't tell the truth about you..
@@oshanew9941 Don't tell a lie on me.
@@samueldavis3117 I won't tell the truth about you
U- Kendrick Lamar
genuinely some of the best content on youtube. thank you for truly trying to appreciate everything you’ve played, that’s what is necessary to bring us all together
FINALLY!!!! YOU DID IT
Both were great but Kendrick’s verse is hands down better in my opinion
Literally cause of his flow and speed👀🤷🏾
This might be one of the greatest kendrick lamar songs of all time
@@ycblud6377 lol.. this is perfection not just speed or flow.. The lyrics are over the bars
@@jcoolvibes couldn't agree mor 🤔to think of it now, dunno what I was thinking back then 😹
@@ycblud6377 😂 truth be told d game needs him back
My favorite line is when J. Cole he said he's getting Cream like an old Laker. KAREEM Abdul Jabbar is one of the best basketball players of all time and played for the Lakers in the 80's just really heavy word play with those homophones
I don't know why people would recommend this and not recommend the originals first so they have an understanding coming into this. Kendrick rapping on j cole beat Tale of 2 cities. Cole rapping on Kendrick beat Alright
It probably would have made more sense to know that Kendrick was freestyling over J. Cole's song (A Tale of 2 Citiez) and vice versa (Alright).
Y’all mentioned not being able to catch everything in some rap songs, neither do I on the first go around, and that’s what I love about good hip hop. I have songs in my library I’ve been listening to for years and I still hear something “new” every now and then lol a gift that keeps giving.
yeh we've been waiting for the collab for a couple of February's
They rapper over each other’s beats. Kendrick rapped over A Tale of 2 Cities from J. Cole’s album. And J. Cole rapped over the beat for Alright
so glad i dont have to read this been requested in the comments again lol, btw congratulations and keep on grinding guys you are unstoppable
Long awaited!
Now you have to listen to the two original songs they rapped over “Alright” & “Tale of 2 Citiez”
React to 'U' by Kendrick Lamar
Thats a good one i see u 😂👀
Lol, I've been trying to get this seen for ages.
Honestly one of the greatest songs ever made
They should react to U and Alright back to back. Since they're very connected tracks
I love the whole concept of this channel. The fact that people from other genre's give Hip Hop a chance and aren't close minded like lots of people who assume most rap music is just talking over a beat. Even though you won't catch a lot of the lines in a lot of songs in reference to other Hip Hop artists, songs, albums etc. or simply because you need the ear of a Rap fan to catch some bars, it's great that you two give it a go and appreciate the talent in the industry.
I'd also love to know some of your favourite artists (across all genre's) so I myself can explore other genre's.
Never clicked on a video that fast in my life!
Max Reed
Meeee toooo
Bruh!! I saw this and my eyes lit up!!! I saw this in the comment sections and other videos and it made me go listen to it a couple of times!!
I just opened TH-cam, saw this as the first video on my recommended and just did a little cheer
Been waiting for this one
I love that you guys actually read your comments 🔥🔥bless up 🙏
I’m so happy you guys are growing I was here since 5k keep doing your thing I get excited when I see a notification from you guys ha
Watching from Virginia in the USA, keep up the great work guys!!
The biggest video that will ever have been released on TH-cam ever. I’m waiting boys.
I'm sure someone else has mentioned this in the comments but they both original had songs to the beats each other used. The beat used by Kendrick is from a song called A Tale of 2 Citiez by J Cole and the second beat which J Cole used is from a song called Alright by Kendrick. Love the channel, the new T-shirt is dope!
The beat that Kendrick was rapping to was originally from a JCole song called A Tale of 2 Citiez, and the beat that JCole was rapping to was originally from a Kendrick song called Alright. The collaboration was released on November 27, 2015 which was also Black Friday here in the U.S. Before the song was released there was a rumor going around that Kendrick and JCole were going to release a collab album, and I guess this was there way of acknowledging the rumor
First beat is 'A Tale of 2 Citiez' by J Cole from '2014 Forest Hills Drive'. Second beat is 'Alright' by Kendrick from 'To Pimp a Butterfly'
Shirt is looking amazing guys. Definitely going to buy one 🔥
I've waited SO long for this. Thank you guys you ROCK!! 🤘🏻
Haven't even watched the video but this is the most legendary moment in the history of youtube.
its so weird to go back and see how far jon’s music taste has come
I cant believe i lived to see the day!!!
lmaooo understandable
Congrats!!! You’ve been spamming it for 3 months lol 😂
WowWhoa yep lmao but not only me
Ezra Przytyk haha definitely not just you but I know you’ve been at it every video for a while
WowWhoa ye hahaha sometimes i was like fuck i must be annoying.. but i also figured that was what was going to work
Omg guys finally! I'm so glad you listened to this. I know that Kendrick has a unique sound but to me this is Kendrick going to the basics. And J.Cole let's be real he's not human haven't disliked anything I have heard of his yet. Love y'all keep up the amazing reactions. You guys are amazing. 😊
Just to clarify they flipped beats off of each other's album
Tale Of 2 Citiez - J. Cole (Album: 2014 Forest Hills Drive)
Alright - Kendrick Lamar (Album - TPAB)
And it is called Black Friday because that is essentially a shopping holiday in America where items are heavily discounted and sometimes sold tax free.
It is the day after Thanksgiving.
Gerardo Rojas we have black friday in the uk too
lambo driftz really? Nice I wasn't aware that. They seemed not to know about it but I just assumed they are from the UK lol Thank you for that information. I wonder what other countries utilize Black Friday?
Gerardo Rojas Most countries have it, it's usually when companies go from being in the red to being in the black, hence the name.
Black Friday i am pretty sure is in almost the whole world lmao
J Cole: Kenny loftin, killers, tears for odb, 4 your eyez only, 3 wishes, young simba, revenge of the dreamer, window pain, and let nas down.
All of these songs are amazing story telling. Let Nas down is a song he made in reference to hearing about Nas (his idol) disliking one of his (at the time) recent projects. Nas actually came back with a response to the same beat called Made Nas proud.
Since you didn't recognize the beat from Kendrick's song "Alright", you should definitely react to that. And watch the video, too. It's probably my favorite of Kendrick's music videos.
Kendrick was also featured in another of Cole’s songs, singing the chorus of forbidden fruit on born sinner
YESSS WHAT WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!!! THANK YOU
The beat in Kendrick’s part is from J. Cole’s song A tale of 2 cities and on Coles part it’s with Kendrick’s Alright song.. just fyi love watching you guys 😄❤️
OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED
Now you guys have to do the original versions:
Alright by Kendrick
Tale of Two Citiez by Cole
FINALLY 😂 YOU THE BEST GUYS🔥
Loved the steak analogy. Y’all are awesome. But up’s from Kansas City, MO
been watching since the start and the growth is mad , hope u can turn this into a business
What’s impressive about these two songs was nothing was put on paper they turned the beat on what ever happened happened and the word play for it to be a freestyle was simply amazing
DO SURVIVAL TACTICS BY JOEY BADA$$ ft. CAPITAL STEEZ*****

I know someone already said it, but Black Friday was them rapping over each others biggest (debatably) songs of their previous albums at the time. The J Cole song is called "A Tale of Two Cities" and the Kendrick song is called "Alright". Both great songs! Thanks for the reaction and your perspective fellas! All the best.
You guys have to do Black Friday by j cole and Kendrick Lamar !

Please do the TDE Cypher for BET Kendrick Lamar and his crew just spit bars please

Finally I’ve been waiting for this!!!!!!!!
It's J. Cole on Kendrick's "We Gone Be Alright" beat and Kendrick on J. Cole's "Tale of Two Cities"
Isaiah Rashad, Kendrick Lamar, Zacari- Wats Wrong (I’ll keep requesting 😂)
I hope they do this too but I've been requesting Heavenly Father for months lmao
they wont do it. there are like 100 better more popular kendrick tracks.
Ezra Przytyk I agree but its a good introduction to Isaiah Rashad with an iconic verse from Kendrick as a bonus
Incredible song
Craig Cryan yeah true but i just dont see it happening, i wish they did 5 times more kdot reactions
Lool I felt bad for Jon when he said “not one we can Sing to” to Coles Black Friday
I’ve never clicked a video so fast in my life...
Been following the videos for a while but this one made me sub. I believe in the vision!
They are rapping over beats from each other’s songs
you were talking about the beat, the first one was actually j.coles beat from "a tale of 2 citiez", and the second one was taken from kendrick´s "alright"
