You're actually listening to the rereleased version of the album. The original had two other tracks "Pure Enough" and "Narcotics" which aren't on the one you're listening to.
The Story: No Title Star Wars reference is pretty dope for a couple reasons. He says "Who said Jesus can't be a black guy? Even Luke Skywalker's father was on the Dark Side", because A. Darth Vader (Luke's father) was pretty much the leader of the "Dark Side" of the Force, basically the evil power-hungry side, and B. Darth Vader was voiced by James Earl Jones who is a black actor. So it's one of those lines where either-way you look at it, his point is made. To me that's what keeps me interested in Curry's work. Dude constantly drops those bars that somehow can transition into multiple meanings once you look past them at face value, but still seem relevant to the message or statement he's trying to make.
denzel curry is so underrated and is one of the most special and unique artists out there. i wish more people knew about hm smh. love the vids you guys really do a great job of appreciating the work and decompposing the lyrics
I knew Denzel was special the first time I heard him. But "This Life" affected me like no other rap track has. Hearing the words made me tear up. I can't understand how this dude isn't a worldwide phenomenon. The music and beats are insanely dope and Zel is has A+ flow. I don't get it.
Can y’all plz do the 13 EP by Denzel Curry it’s very grunge and hardcore it bumps it the whip like a butch but it will not give your a break lmaoo its bout as hardcore as you get
"going down on the block, no anchor" is a double entendre. You can take the obvious meaning, anchors go down they hold things down. Shit is going down on the block with nothing or no one holding shit down for each other. But it also refers to news anchors, meaning there's a lot of shit that goes down that will never make it on the televised news, reported by a news anchor. By saying this, he's talking about how people don't know what goes on in the hood, which is why there seems to be a lack of sympathy from people who don't have live in those circumstances
Denzel toured with Joey bada$$ a while back so I wouldn't be surprised if he was influenced by the east coast in some way that's also would explain the colab
if you guys like denzel you should check out IDK. Up and coming rapper who has done a few songs with him and is pretty lyrical like denzel. His mixtape SubTrap is really good or you could just check out his songs called "Trippie Redd Freestyle" or "No Wave" with Denzel.
Dope ass chanel, I love how fast you guys catch these bars. I hope you get around to JID's Never Story. Dude is insane with the flows and rhyme schemes.
y’all should for sure react to the mixtape “abstract art” by k.a.a.n. he’s an underground artist. if you want to know what he sounds like and stuff listen to kaancepts
Dakota Hall mostly cause there’s no significant reaction there. Sometimes we include it when there’s something we react to. Can’t include everything though. Copyright issues
yall should do his other two big projects called Nostalgic 64 and 32 Zel Planet Shrooms. No one has done them on youtube yet, would love to see what your opinions on them.
so glad people are actually looking into him more since ta13oo. He really deserves to blow up.
you guys dope af. yall litterly catch almost everthing on first listen. that is wild
B.kaidou bers they caught stuff I haven’t after listening to this tones of times
Jack in Black facts lmao
i realize it's kind of off topic but do anyone know of a good site to watch new series online ?
@@rileyodin2602ww5.gowatchseries, i use it all the time
Denzel is the best in the new school when it comes to combining lyricism and bangers
Damn this was real of you guys to go back to imperial, good looks
The Han Solo line totally slipped my mind til I played that track couple days ago. After 3 years of listening to that album every now and again. Damn.
You guys catch hella bars

The Man With No Name Honestly the rereleased version is better. So they didn't miss out on anything really.
i prefer the other one honestly
K Müller pure enough is a good song tho
Me now is better than both of them
@@Ehgg- me now is dope af

*EVERYTHING GON BE ALRIGHT*
*EVERY BODY HAVE A GOOD NIGHT*
Me listening to zel for 4yrs now I’ve never analyzed the lyrics like This man keep it up
Same
Man this is such a good channel. Much more than just reactions.
I knew Denzel was special the first time I heard him. But "This Life" affected me like no other rap track has. Hearing the words made me tear up. I can't understand how this dude isn't a worldwide phenomenon. The music and beats are insanely dope and Zel is has A+ flow. I don't get it.
Y'all crazy actually my favourite channel rn, not often I find people into Denzel the same way I am
Denzel is one of the best rappers out ..point blank
this deserves way more views, Imperial is unforgettable
you guys are hella hella underrated
Definately check out Mick Jenkins - The Waters if you haven’t already. Super dope project that doesn’t get enough recognition.
Steve Quick your right hes one of my favorite artist
Mick Jenkins is corny AF
@@sofdrink how?
If everyone listened to a Denzel album like this he would already be the #1 rapper out
He didn’t rap over the beat switch in vengeance because the beat switch was to cover up the gratuitous violence that insued.
13:18 thats fire but catching that bar makes u just as fire bro
Yeah man that line about Darth Vader is crazy. In the story, he was immaculately conceived as well so the parallel with Jesus made sense.
I saw this dude a few days ago and it was crazy. Hope he keeps getting more recognition, was such a great show.
GREAT REACTION, N64 NEXT!!! LOVE SEEING PEOPLE WAKE UP TO THIS MAN.
Sick & Tired best track on the album
ya his nostalgic 64 is really dope mixtape...it made me a curry fan
Great work from the two of you. I look forward to yalls reaction of YG new project.
flatbush and denzel did a song together called The Glory
Such a good fucking song
Can y’all plz do the 13 EP by Denzel Curry it’s very grunge and hardcore it bumps it the whip like a butch but it will not give your a break lmaoo its bout as hardcore as you get
MVTT X prince said he already heard it
Knotty Head is my favourite rap song of all time or close to it
Denzel curry will make u wake
Best album review video for imperial ive seen. Wow keep it up

Y'all are awesome as hell please do Veteran - JPEGmafia
Jpegmafia is sick a reaction would be dope
Abdullah Shabasy his style too wierd for me tbh
ChoiceBandChansey he's very experimental with his production but he has bars and flows
in 10 years ppl will look at imperial as a classic. Its already a classic to me and much better than TA13OO imo
" i keep an AK, on my Issa Gold shit... " The underachievers/ Ak and Issa gold..... bruuuhhhh
Denzel was actually "inducted" into Beast Coast so u guys are spot on with the comparison to him with East Coast rappers
love this song, it's really good replacement of narcotics which was also great
Dope channel hope you guys blow up
Might as well do nostalgic 64 now
Fave Reaction man y’all dope asl
channel****
Yall too lucky you slept on this, after I listend to Imperial back in the day I had to wait so long for Taboo.
I love the way they broke down every lyric
These dudes picking up more shit in the first listen then what I have over the past year
Nostalgia 64 is crazy too. ZONE 3 >
How yall just listenin to this now????!!!
0 dislikes shows how much people fuck with yall
If u want someone else with bars like this whose mad underrated, check out IDK. Maybe start with his "Trippie Redd Freestyle". Trust me.
+ he also has 2 songs with Denzel called "No Wave" and "Uh Huh"
xREDification No Wave is a great song. I also love Lil Arrogant with Joey Badass and Russ
Vince Staples, Earl Sweatshirt 👀
You’ve gotta listen to
4 Eva is a Mighty Long Time - Big K.R.I.T.,
The Suns Tirade - Isaiah Rashad and
Never Story - J.I.D
blessed !!
dope! this is a great album
React to nostalgic 64?? His debut album is also amazing
blessed by this upload. Hope you guys do Astroworld too
Denzel toured with Joey bada$$ a while back so I wouldn't be surprised if he was influenced by the east coast in some way that's also would explain the colab

I get pissed off when people keep comparing him to J-cole Kendrick etc. Denzel is Denzel, he's in his own lane..
would love to see a Nostalgic 64 reaction
Dope ass chanel, I love how fast you guys catch these bars. I hope you get around to JID's Never Story. Dude is insane with the flows and rhyme schemes.
Yeah best album of 2016 imo
So good.
y’all should for sure react to the mixtape “abstract art” by k.a.a.n. he’s an underground artist. if you want to know what he sounds like and stuff listen to kaancepts
Not hating, just curious, why do you guys cut out the part where the beat first comes in every song on all of your reactions?
Dakota Hall mostly cause there’s no significant reaction there. Sometimes we include it when there’s something we react to. Can’t include everything though. Copyright issues
VibeVilla Yeahhh, that's understandable
You guys should really check out his Tim Westwood freestyle he kills it
You gotta listen to UNLOCKED the video is dope as hell too
