JACK HARLOW - COME HOME THE KIDS MISS YOU / 2022 / GENERATION NOW / POP RAP
3/10
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right? - เพลง
I love how Dua Lipa "approved" that song and she said "it's okay, I guess." pretty much sums up the whole album
She needs to hop on a remix
Don’t let flannel forget he gave Mac Miller “Swimming” the same score as this album. And then he don’t include it or address in his “worst reviews” video
@@batmanandrobin250 because he didn’t like the album, circles is the much stronger project out of the two imo
@@GarretRB if Mac was alive when it released he would have given circles a 5
where did she do that tho?
Harlow is speedrunning killing his career with this one.
Be quiet bum

Hello Sir Bradington funny seeing you here.
You gave him a 7/10, your taste is certainly "brad"
If "airport rap" is a thing then this album is the literal definition of that
“Airport rap” 😂
How does this make sense 😂
That's so weird I was listening to him on a long layover 😂
@@jukehucci4421 washing the dishes rap
I literally listened to it walking through the airport, hits better hopping on a plane but so does any somg
you would’ve given it a 10 if it was called “come home the kids see ghosts”
Come home from the money store, the kids see ghosts
😂😂😂😂
this shit made me laugh so hard
Explain? can I take this guy serious?
@@william3253 yes. it’s a joke. he gave an album titled “kids see ghost” a 10/10, and albums he’s given 10s to are commonly memed, especially alongside albums he hasn’t given positive scores to.
Pitchfork giving this album a 2.9/10 and Fantano giving this album a 3/10 is a lethal combo
They were too nice IMO.
Absolutely tragic ⚰️
Alright, the hipsters don´t like them. Most likely he mainly cares about commercial success and as long as he has that he is far from arriving at a "lethal" place. I am a hipster though and so I have not even cared to listen to him
@@EclecticoIconoclasta But even the online discourse is extremely negative toward this album
@@EclecticoIconoclasta yeah but even if it's just hipsters going as hard as this on the album, that stuff tends to wear down an artist eventually after a few mediocre projects. Even if people say they don't care about the critics, people like having other people think they are cool for liking smth and if enough people are loudly criticising others will start to follow suit. Critical opinion won't affect people who don't show any talent but still manage a career, but jack Harlow has hype around him and he has the potential to make good music, he just isn't trying that hard like the description says
Harlow maxed his charisma and had no xp left for inspiration
That's what happens when the lens of rich whiteboy never seen real shit, nothing to rap about.
💀💀💀
Really good build for the early game. Gonna be tough for the later levels.
that's a bar right there
Fallout bars 🤣
To think this album got the same score as Swimming is a slap in the face to Mac Miller’s spirit
Swimming and circles are masterpieces. I dont even like rap and I'm very anti-modern music, more of a 90s britpop and beatles fan, but those albums blew me away
@@Breeze1 "anti-modern music" is so puzzling. It sounds more like you have what you like and don't want to put effort forward to explore other genres or newer artists. It honestly only discredits your take of Swimming and Circles being masterpieces. How do you know that those albums are masterpieces in comparison to the rest of the genre if you don't listen to the genre or any of Mac's contemporaries? It sounds like you think music peaked in the beatles era and no artists are experimenting or pushing the envelope like they did which isn't true.
@@natereynolds5233 amazing. Every word you just said was wrong.
@@Breeze1 You said you don't like rap and you are anti modern music. What else is that supposed to mean? That you are (anti) against it but you still explore and engage with the genre of music?
@@natereynolds5233 I was very broad and generic so I wouldn't have to go into the nuances. I dont like the modern music industry. Most Modern pop music doesn't have meaning, both from the artist or from the consumers. I dont like drill or grime or most rap in general. I have explored plenty.
For me, this album is straight out of Drake's handbook. Safe, few radio friendly joints, and a host of artists and producers phoning it in. I hate that I have to say this cause I like the guy. He was an everyday kid who just kept rapping and eventually found the right sound which made him stand out amongst his immediate peers. Loose, Confetti, Sweet Action, and even That's What They All Say are great for me. Come Home The Kids Miss You is what happens when artists and labels decide to be safe cause that will always get the job done, but it also comes at the cost of the quality.
jack tried to sound like drake on every other song of this album and drake still had the best verse lol
He’s still crafting his sauce
@@GalloDem sweet sweet sweet, sweet semen
Or he just doesn't have any depth. It's possible that he just isn't a person with any experiences to project onto his art.
Listening to the album I was like this is literally CLB inspired album. For me CLB was a 4/10 nothing too crazy and only 2 songs did I like off the album. CHTKMY is a solid 1/10 there’s nothing to redeem it. Never in my life do I ever wanna hear any of the songs on this album.
Man this review was brutal. usually fantano has no problem ripping into artists but this had " I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed." energy, like a sad parent. Damn...
Seems like he was extra careful to avoid being lumped with Harlow haters
because this album wasn't insultingly bad, it was bland and underwhelming
@@yaba2352 I find a bland and boring album to be a much worse thing than an obviously awful album. Because at least an awful album will have some sort of entertainment value and will make you feel something
@@lostecho4394 exactly! I feel the same way! that's why I think it fits well with the "not mad, just disappointed" reaction
Well, he's openly admitted that he thinks that Harlow is actually pretty good for the current music industry, as even though his music is incredibly average he is a good personality as of late when a lot of celebrities are being exposed for being not so good of people
I hate to say it, but this album was genuinely hard for me to listen through. Can’t help but feel his personality carries him in terms of why people rate him.
I cannot help but agree, I have not ever heard someone say they like Jack Harlow without mentioning his personality.
That’s literally all he is now. If you don’t want to sleep with him than what is there to gain from listening to him lol
Youre getting that now?
I agree. I feel like if he let his charisma and personality that shines in interviews and other internet content into the music it could actually be good.
100%.
Hey now Anthony. You had me up until you shat on “Eat so much shrimp I got iodine poisoning.” That is a legendary line. First used by Pimp C on Sippin on Syrup and even reused by your fav Danny Brown on Belly of the Beast and IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY you actually applauded his usage of the same bar on that track for its absurdity.
That’s all, carry on
Good catch
Lol
Damn I thought this was a troll but you're actually right 😂
that's the type of line that is made or broken by the delivery and placement. the line is absurd so it takes skill to get it off. 2 chainz is the type of artist where he can get off a bunch of absurd lines that other artists can't. Future is another. Jack isn't.
@@stephencox8723 Lil Wayne said that line though, not Jack
I want him to increase his tempo and energy to make more songs like what’s poppin and ghost especially. That’s when I feel like he’s at his best and I really hope he does well because we can’t have shit in Kentucky
All his songs sound like that lmao
I want him to have some energy in his tracks, like try something new. Like full on rap-screaming, psychedelic effects on his voice, vocoded voice maybe? His songs are so boring, at least exaggerate something.
@@wolfwang8464 huh
ghost is fire ngl
What’s poppin is THE Jack Harlow song. Automatic is pretty good too but man he needs to step up before he becomes white drake
U can tell he was greatly influenced by Drake with the number of corny ass bars on this record
lmao

He’s already speedrunning the post 2016 Drake career of releasing samey, low-effort, complacent shit.
@@TylerFederico low effort? More Life?
dont compare him to drake its so disrespectful. Drake is 10x the artist jack will ever be at least drake is versatile mfs who compared him to drake rlly take drake for granted.
i think he’s blown up in relevancy faster than he could progress as an artist. sorta the double edged sword of blowing up how he has. i still think he’s okay, and his music is fun, but he’s not pushing the envelope yet
He's also white so he's going to be pushed hardcore by white people
Blame Tik-Tok
like lil tecca
Yet? maybe he never will. He could just me a middle-of-the-road rapper with a few hit singles and half-decent projects like Big Sean.
@@ReyBeezy could be. could not. time will tell!
Jack Harlow is like Olive Garden. That one time you ate there when you were 12, you loved it. Now it's only good when you have a coupon, and all other restaurants are closed, and you happen to have a crush on the server.
When you're here, you're dysfunctional family
That’s oddly specific
@@Ari-cm1zk that's what I'm saying 😒
Nah that’s worse than any review I’ve seen of Jack. Damn
And then there are some who genuinely love their product without a shred of irony. Like my old coworker, who would choose Olive Garden over any other restaurant.
When he said “you need Jesus not Givenchy” it was painful. He should have delivered it so much better. It was just a repackage of “you need Christ not Christian Dior” from his Extinct verse, which actually hit really well.
yea and that was a rip off anyways
Anthony must really like Dua Lipa

I think Jack could learn a thing or two from Lil nas x, although they have completely different backgrounds and topics to talk about, I think they operate in the same realm of pop rap and had a similar meteoric rise to fame, yet lil nas has been able to make catchier songs with more memorable statements and implement cool features

I like 2 Nas songs but like 4 Harlow songs so idk
I agree especially since Lil nas X is able to grab people's attention in terms of promoting his music by pulling a lot of stunts to promote his music and have people talking.Whereas Harlow's album was hyped due to his inoffensive image and support by the biggest artists in the industry.
You just want him to be gay too
Every time lil drops a batch of music, he always produces a hit song. He has a bright future

It's DaBaby syndrome, good features, but you then realize it almost always sounds the same to the point that anyone can recreate a Jack Harlow flow without effort. Now imagine getting just that for an entire album
No I'm sorry but Dababy at least can come off funny/energetic/entertaining. Jack sounds very milquetoast
@@CastroJr92 it doesn't even sound like he's trying at all.
Yeah exactly it sounds like he's coasting on every single track and his delivery will rock you to sleep in a bad way. I know people have issues with the Dababy sounding repetitive but he at least sounds excited to be on every single song.
@@CastroJr92 agree, at least he sounds like he is trying lol
DaBaby can actually flow though and has energy
You’d have given this a 10 if jack where white
Given how quickly he blew up, I actually think this will be good for him. I didn't know an album at this level of the music industry could feel 'lazy' despite all the money and risk involved, but here we are.
Agreed. I still think he’s going to be the artist of the decade though
If the 2010s was Drake’s decade, the 2020s are going to be Jack Harlow’s decade
@@coyotelong4349 Drake never had weak albums early on in his career.

@@password460 Thank Me Later was the definition of mid but Drake was lucky enough to be riding the Lil Wayne tidal wave at the time. He also had a couple hit songs though but still, not accurate
@@wm_9640 If TML is the definition of mid this album is bad, after re-listening to TML Jack harlow is nowhere near it. I honestly forgot how many hits the album had, the only bad song on it was Karaoke and Thank me now.
A 3/10? I guess this is what people meant when they said Jack was gonna be the next Drake.

Honestly every JH song is a combination of:
1) My haters
2) My tough life being away from family
3) Me taking care of my family with money.
4) I am popular, but I'll keep reminding you.
Honestly such a boring artist. He offers nothing outside of the above. And he never will for obvious reasons.
Kendrick just dropped a song go and listen to that for some uniqueness ,
@@tkp4075 It's funny how one song offers more variety then an entire JH album hahahaha
@@Adrian829s01 ya , not a big kendrick super fan but i liked heart part 5 , i have heard all of the heart series and part 5 was very nice . And i am only 15 now so i am new to kendrick and this will be his first album which i am going to experience live and I am excited
What’s the obvious reasons? I don’t know anything about him except from hot ones.
@@matletico He is just not interesting. And nothing will change inbetween now and his next album. Just like we have seen now with this album and his previous album.
I like Jack, but your review hits it perfectly. And the main reason is his over the top confidence really. He talks and acts as if he was in the game for forever. You can also see it in his interviews where he talks like a total know-it-all and like the sickest out there. That's also why he couldn't get away with a verse like on Chuchill Down - he just has not the credibility yet to listen to what he has got to say, like we could do with Drake. I think he got some things to sy actually, you can hear some really insightful examples on his debut. His best bet would've been to go for more light, pop-influenced songs that people can just vibe to and then come around with the lyrical content.
I like Jack, I think he has one of the better flows in the game right now and the guy can really rap. The main issue I have with his projects is that several times throughout them I find myself asking/saying “what is he rapping about??” & “Jack really just be saying whatever”
Wow, I can't believe Jack made a project as good as Swimming by Mac Miller. Good for him!
I'm sayin
Swimming has great songs but Melon doesn't like transition but this, This, ThIS album(from Jack Harlow. I forget his album title) is shit. Anyway, it's just his opinion.
this comment made me sad
@@hee576 I love how the album title itself is so forgettable and bad in context of the album but if it had good music, the title would've banged. I can see Future or Drake rocking that title

@@stratford1 don’t care 🤓🤓
This is the correct use of the word mid
I agree that I really didn’t think he’d keep popping like he has. I first found his music back in 2018 and if you told me he would blow up in a couple years I probably wouldn’t have believed you. And then when he blew up off of what’s poppin I thought it would be short lived. But he really proved himself and he’s on top of the charts. I think if he wants to continue to maintain his relevancy he’s gotta experiment and push the envelope.

It’s unfortunate bc I’ve been a huge fan of his but I completely agree, this album fell flat as hell. He wayyyy overhyped this as a charcuterie board when all it was was a 24 pack of Kraft Singles.

I usually hate when ppl say “man I wish [insert artist] stayed underground, but I do wish Jack Harlow at least kept the same energy he had when he was just a local Louisville rapper.
That " Iodine poisoning " lyric is an ode to Pimp C .... Check out Sippin On Some Sizzurp .... By Three 6 Mafia.
Think of this way Jack, if MBDTF was great and a 6/10, a 3/10 isn't so bad. It's basically a 5/10
I'm from Louisville and am all about supporting the homeboys. For 2 solid months I kept telling anybody who would listen "Jack's new record gonna KILL it!". "Jack gonna show out this time!". Etc....
And then this shit dropped and I swear to God I felt like Clark Griswold in Christmas Vacation after he spent months promising the fam they're getting a new swimming pool with his Christmas bonus and then Jack released a mf 1 year membership to the Jelly-of-the-Month club.
I saw a 2 minute freestyle earlier today that Jack did on Flex's show and it was far better than that whole shitty album, and it wasn't all that good either.

The iodine poisoning bar is a Pimp C reference
The iodine poisoning line is a reference to a Pimp C line on “Sippin On Some Syrup”.
Thx bae! 😘
That line about ‘Eating so many shrimp I got iodine poisoning’ is actually a nod to Thee 6 Mafia from the popular song Sippin’ On Some Syrup’ from the 2000 album ‘When The Smoke Clears’.
Not someone Fantano would listen to lol
i knew i heard that line from somewhere, but not there, i heard that in a danny brown song off his latest lp
@@Thatguy55595 which is unfortunate for him, cause that's a banger
I honestly believe Anthony only thinks that's an awful line because he is vegan
@@Thatguy55595 Anthony literally interviewed Gangsta Boo
“This is ramen without the flavour packet” ooooof
Jack Harlow got a 4, YB got a 5. Nature is healing
This a 3/10 tho?
“Iodine poisoning” is an old Pimp C bar. From sippin on some sizzurp
I had hope in Jack. I listened to some of his old projects. I liked them. Unfortunately, this was walk-into-an-outlet-store music. I liked Nail Tech a lot, but the project as a whole is like water with Nesquik.
Don’t let flannel forget he gave Mac Miller “Swimming” the same score as this album. And then he don’t include it or address in his “worst reviews” video

Anthony good review but you really let me down by not knowing one rap’s most famous bars by Pimp C “eat so much shrimp I get iodine poisoning” listen to UGK Anthony!
I can't help but feel like this album is phoned in bcus of the kendrick drop a week later. Such a big hip hop moment we've all been waiting for since before jack even blew up. They really planned to drop this upcoming(?) rappers album a week prior to one of the biggest names in the genre atm. it's probably a reach but I'm just spitballing
Calling Jack Harlow upcoming should be a crime homie has been releasing albums/mixtapes since 2015
Somehow this review is the most praise I’ve seen this album get

Jack Harlow makes me appreciate what Macklemore had going more
Macklemore had at least four major songs that didn’t rely on samples.

@@malcolmxpanther Macklemore was more entertaining that’s for sure
@@duane_313 thrift shop was such a fun ass song
Lil Wayne's shrimp line is a callback to Sippin on Some Syrup how didnt you catch that one bro
From listening to a couple songs myself, it sounds like an R&B record that flips between introspection and a very low-key vibe and then jumping into some of the glitz and glamour. Some of the themes are repetitive, but not necessarily whiny across the record. I feel like low-key music is not bad, and it's a good reminder that not every rapper is gonna be as bombastic as Kanye or Jay, but it needs a little more variety from just the bit I've listened to. I think I'd give it a little higher of a score than Fantano, maybe like a 4.5. I think there's something to build here, though maybe Jack should try putting a little more bass into his step. "Industry Baby" got everyone spoiled and now he needs to step up to that himself once again. That's the hard part.
“Endless string of passionate one-liners” would be a great band name.

Can you look yourself in the mirror and agree with this statement?
@@Mojacaine yes
@@Mojacaine ofc he can
@@Summerrhead fair
i heard so many people hyping up "first class" because of the glamorous sample, but it was so disappointingly underwhelming that i actually had to check and make sure that THIS was the song people were going crazy for. it's just... boring.
“This is ramen without the flavor packet “ jeeeeeeesh
3/10 just like CLB, Care Package, and dark lane demo tapes. He really is the next Drake!
I mean Drake seems to be doing pretty well for himself tho 🤷🏾♂️
None of those albums is below a 6, DLDT is a 7, Care Package is a 8, CLB is a 6
Then he will be really successful, cause even if drake it’s hated, he’s on the top so who the fuck cares
Those all have replay value. Nothing on jacks album stands out. When you have to sample the chorus of someone elses hit for your your own “hit” you have already lost.
@@crisxjay it’s a joke my guy… Jack is going to be really successful no matter how his music is
I think the beat on Movie Star deserved at least a passing reference, I genuinely think it might be the worst beat Pharrell has ever produced in his entire career
Everyone keeps saying the same thing .. & I can get behind that take lol
That beat is ass lmao It legit sounds like something a 16 yo would make on garage band
i guess he thought the functional addict one on i know nigo started a new wave b
The most lazy and boring rap song to release in a while
"This is ramen without the flavour package" damn...
The shrimp line is a pimp c line
Bro that iodine poisoning bar is obviously a reference to pimp-c’s line on sipping on some sizzurp by three 6 mafia…. Danny brown has literally referenced it in the exact same way and you said nothing about it lmaooo
It went over his bald fat head, didn’t know he didn’t get it
FYI, the Wayne "shrimp-iodine poisoning" bar is tribute to Pimp C's verse on Three Six Mafia's "Sipping on Syrup". Do your homework, Fantano.
I haven't heard the Harlow album. I just enjoy reading/watching the slanderous reviews
I was surprised he glossed over that, the original iodine poisoning line is so iconic and funny
Don’t let this flannel figure forget he gave Mac Miller “Swimming” the same score as this album. And then he don’t include it or address in his “worst reviews” video
Came here to comment the same thing. Honestly one of the most famous rap lines ever.
Glad to see I’m not the only one that caught that shit. Put some respect on Sweet Jones name Fantano
He should’ve just waited longer before releasing another project. This felt rushed. People who are avid fans would’ve waited in anticipation which would’ve built even more, and it would’ve given him time to have more to actually say and develop his craft more.
Looks like Harlow set the Bar Low
This review was essentially “I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed.”
underrated comment
Jack Harlow, the white Eminem.
Jack Harlow, the male Eminem.
The industry always props up these one dimensional pop darlings every year hoping and succeeding at squeezing that moment of relevance for all it’s worth. Then once that well dries up they leave them to fend for themselves and they ultimately fizzle out because of how inherently limited they are artistically.
Facts
I don’t think Jack is going to fizzle… I think he has staying power
He just needs a few more years to fully marinate as an artist
@@coyotelong4349 Nah, he a pop artist. he's doing what drakes doing now, but drake took 4-5 transitioning into the hit maker. harlow is pumping out tiktok song like they have lasting power but they dont
BINGO!!
'artistically'? Who fucking cares? It's easy to make something super deep that gets nowhere. Stop having a problem with huge hit songs. I find those far more impressively crafted. All your precious underground artists that moan about being 'underrated' need to get their shit together and make something actually hit worthy. There's no reason why you can't have a deep 'artistic' meaning AND something most people will actually become addicted to.
“i eat so many shrimp, i got iodine poisoning” is originally a Pimp C bar from sippin on some sizzurp
His tiny desk was great with the live band helping make up for the average bars. I hate how hesitant hiphop artists are to approach an actual album that way. Like The Roots have a monopoly on being a hiphop band.
lol there are tons of hiphop groups with live music my man

The bar about eating so much shrimp he has iodine poisoning is a call back to a classic pimp c verse, not something Wayne pulled out of nowhere.
Call me crazy but I’d love to see jack switch it up and do an album with the alchemist
Definitely
What a giant waste of great beats that would be
@@unholylemonpledge9730 nah. It will suit him, atleast he raps lol. Weird noise makers won't do Collab with alchemist lol 🤣
If Jack actually like… tries. He’s definitely not the greatest writer but his writing seems especially bad on this album for some reason.
He needs like actual direction. This album seems more like a deadline meeting project than something he actually wanted to make, if he even wanted to make an album.
This album is the musical definition of mid

@@52baldingindianjanitor72 nah it’s that awkward midpoint between mid and trash, like that week old oatmeal you’d normally have thrown out by now but put enough cinnamon and sugar into it to make you regret trashing it. So you heat it up and eat it and discover that it was just as disappointing as you expected it to be, so you wish you trashed it.

That shrimp line is a Pimp C bar
fantano has never listened to UGK (figures)
“i eat so many shrimp i got iodine poisoning” - pimp c
7:58 funny you should mention that “iodine poisoning” line since it’s a bar-for-bar rip off from Three 6’s Sippin On Some Syrup, which came out two decades ago.
It’s called paying Homage…..
@@truthbetold06 yo but it's also a danny brown line on belly of the beast. who's he paying homage to?
“This is ramen without the flavor packet” JESUS ANTHONY! Didn’t your mom ever tell you murder is bad?
That line about iodine poisoning is lifted directly from Danny Browns last album, I think the song Belly of the Beast?
Having PINK on the shelf is just adding insult to injury. Fantano’s feeling savage today
