- Coach reacts to Kanye West's "Ghost Town" and gives his thoughts and analysis on the lyrics. He also gives a brief English language lesson on the history of the letter "thorn," where Kanye gained the inspiration to name the album "Ye." Enjoy this first-time, genuine reaction, with lyric breakdown and commentary. This is the first time Coach has ever listened to hip-hop, outside of some 90s stuff by Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre.
Can you help Coach understand hip-hop better? Leave a comment.
Kanye fans, can we get Coach to 1000 subs?
Enjoy.

We need more hip hop reactions!!!
That's what everyone tells me. Depends on how people respond to it. I'm up for it if that's what people like and comment on.
Kanye - power
Jesus Walks by Kanye is also a very good lyric filled song 🔥
I'll consider it. This video honestly didn't get a very good reaction from my subscribers, so it might be a bit, but I'll try to get to it.
thank you for reacting please more kanye this is my favorite song ever
The quote about being bipolar is on the album cover of “Ye”. The whole album deals with Kanye’s experiences living with bipolar disorder. This particular song is about the euphoric but potentially dangerous high of a manic bipolar state. When kanye is in a manic state of mind, he feels free, he feels like a kid, he doesn’t feel pain. It’s the only time where he feels truly his honest self “no half truths just naked minds” but this is a dangerous state to operate in. Even if he’s not feeling the pain of his hand on the stove, he’s still getting hurt. His reckless behavior is still alienating his loved ones “I’ve been trying to make you love me, but everything I try just takes you further from me” and he knows a lot of his well-intentioned actions won’t be understood by many but he yearns for the “someday” when people will finally realize that he didn’t mean any harm. It’s a pretty key song to understanding Kanye’s mentality and the closest thing we’ll get to an explanation for his many wild outbursts and rants that are regularly documented in the media. I think it’s a really important track that is honest about the realities of living with a mental condition but it’s definitely a little hard to understand without context
Excellent comment that clarifies so much. Thank you. Thank you.
Ye is pronounced "yay" as in Kanye. It's a nickname.
I wasn't sure because of his biblical quote, which would be "yee," or "thee" like I mention in the video.
Awesome reaction! Would love to see more Kanye. I think coming from a metal background you'll enjoy song like Black Skinhead, Power or Hell of a Life from Kanye. Runway is also a good one to react to, probably one of his most important songs
Thanks. It's a hard experience to try to get around copyright claims, but I'll try to get to some of this. Thanks for the suggestions.
kanye is the most influential artist in hip hop. he changed the game. his debut album, the college dropout, had many soul samples and departed from “gangster rap.” then his 3rd album, graduation, paved the way for commercial hip hop and artist that depart from once again, “gangster rap.” you should really give a listen to those albums. and his most influential album, 808s and heartbreak. after the death of his mother and after his fiance leaving him, he drops a hip hop album that used 808s which was never really used in hip hop and he raps/sings about “sad” music which paved the way for many artists like that. definitely give those a listen 😁 quick listens for each album. TCD: all falls down. Graduation: i wonder. 808s: street lights
Someone else mentioned All Falls Down. I'll try to get to that one when I do another. Most influential artist in hip hop? That seems like a bold statement.
@@pigskinpoetry its true
So many kanye songs i would love to see! Power is probably the one though
Thanks for the suggestion.
Kanye West - Black Skinhead is great if you wanna listen to some crazy induatrial rap with rock influence
Black Skinhead? That's a crazy title.
@@pigskinpoetry Yeah, Kanye really switched up his sound when he released the album Yeezus and Black Skinhead was the first single of that album. He even performed Black Skinhead on SNL live which shocked alot of people.
more Kanye
Give me a recommendation. This was one my students suggested. I'm not familiar enough with him to even know what to look for.
@@pigskinpoetry Davil In A New Dress
@@pigskinpoetry or Two Words
if you want to hear some RAP
Coach Hrncir I think you should do a break down of the song “All Falls Down” also by Kanye West I think you’d really like it
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll try to get to it.
Great video! I truly understand how this song can be interpreted in different ways. This song is basically a statement for his well being a mental health. It’s not a song you really just sit back and enjoy but is meant to get a point across about his mental stability. Also kanye produces a lot of his own music and is credited for changing hip hop by using the soul samples you hear like in ghost town.
That sample was something I wasn't expecting, that's for sure. Now that I know this is about mental health, that makes a lot more sense. Thanks.
instead of going through the timeline and tryna find the lyrics like that i think it would be better if u clicked < a couple of times and ust play it again, just my take though i was kinda getting triggered.
Thanks for the advice.
Kanye West is mentally ill and has not been a nice person, he connived with his now ex-wife Kim Kardashian to make Taylor Swift look like a liar. He called her up saying he was going to say something about her in his song "Famous". When the song came out, the lyrics "I made that b!tch famous", Taylor said she didn't know about those lyrics. Kanye and Kim edited the recording that he made when he called her. Kim started calling her a snake and pretty soon everyone jumped on the hate train. Taylor disappeared for a year, and that is when her Reputation album came out, there are songs on that album that refer to Kanye. About 3 years ago someone leaked the original tape (he filmed himself doing it), and that's when everyone knew who the real liars were. Enough said.
Yeah, someone else was mentioning that he has bi-polar disorder. Based on my limited knowledge of the man, that tracks.
@@pigskinpoetryWe have a son who is bipolar and won't take his meds. he is not in our life because of the things he has done to us, we no longer trust him. Bipolar is an evil disease. Kanye also won't take meds. Kim has said they were managing it, how I don't know. But he has hurt Taylor before, he seems to have a vendetta against her, she wanted to be a friend, and he used that.
Womp womp get a band loser
Kanye made her famous tho
