- Skullz reacts to Evolution of Michael Jackson by Pentatonix for the first time
Pentatonix (abbreviated PTX) is an American a cappella group from Arlington, Texas, currently consisting of vocalists Scott Hoying, Mitch Grassi, Kirstin Maldonado, Kevin Olusola, and Matt Sallee. Characterized by their pop-style arrangements with vocal harmonies, basslines, riffing, percussion, and beatboxing, they produce cover versions of modern pop works or Christmas songs, sometimes in the form of medleys, along with original material. Pentatonix formed in 2011 and subsequently won the third season of NBC's The Sing-Off, receiving $200,000 and a recording contract with Sony Music.[2][3] When Sony's Epic Records dropped the group after The Sing-Off, the group formed its TH-cam channel, distributing its music through Madison Gate Records, a label owned by Sony Pictures.[4][5][6] Their TH-cam channel currently has over 19 million subscribers and 5.6 billion views. The group's video tribute to Daft Punk had received more than 358 million views as of November 20, 2021.[7][8][9]

You should watch their cover (Kiara) of Gold, also a one take live. It is very impressive! They, particularly Mitch, accomplished what she had to use electronic effects to do.
I recc that too. It's amazing what Mitch's voice can do!
Yes to this - but - make sure you are familiar with the original, or the vocal magic they do may not be as apparent as it should be!
Absolutely this
💯
It's gonna blow his mind and it would be great to hear what he thinks.
Mitch can mimic a Sharpie pen🙄
To me Kevin and Avi are the rock stars. To seamlessly switch beat and bass lines to so many songs so quickly is mind blowing
Yeah thats an overlooked talent 💯
So hard to chose what MJ they missed but these are great..
Just a thought for your views....they never record any video that they can't sing live, and believe me some of their live performances exceed even the videos. Truly, Truly the best acapella EVER !!!!
You should watch PopSpring 2016 which is the Evolution of Michael Jackson live as well as 3 original songs. It’s a 15 minute video, but it’s sooooo good. The audio is phenomenal and they even have some choreography too! Mitch does so well at mimicking or emulating other artists.
Absolutely 👍
Melissa, I feel like you and I write this comment over and over again lol😂
@@judithL3100 absolutely!
All of the PTX "Evolution of..." videos are recorded live, in a single take, no cuts, no edits. The bass and percussion are front and center with the mics, and the Trio are set up behind them (often on a couch back, as they did in the early days). They do the entire set about 4 times, then decide which one they want to publish.
To hear them do EoMJ in a live concert, check out the Popspring 2016 video. It includes 3 original songs and the EoMJ medley - and you'd be hard-pressed to tell the differences from this one, other than they do a little bit of choreography for the concert setting.
A must watch! 90's Dance Medley is also a must see!
Thanks so much for appreciating what Avi does during this medley, sometimes I feel like bass is under appreciated in acapella… so important!! 🤩👏🏾🙌🏾🎉❤️
Absolutely 💯
I agree. PTXs cover of. Kiera’s gold is a masterclass in timing and vocals. It’s recorded live
For an Avi treat (IMO) watch and react to their cover of Megan Trainers 'No' It's a feast for the ears! Avi and Kevin once again shine so much. Mitch brings his Sass to the fore. Kirsty and Scott are incredible. And it's another one take shoot. Hope to get to see this one.
You can see an evolution of mic technology in these "recorded live" performances over the years. Some early videos like "Somebody That I Used to Know" and "Gangnam Style" seem to have only one mic. By this point (2015 I think) they can afford multiple mics, and I think the three in the back may have mics suspended over their heads. That allows their genius sound editor to do sound balancing and spatial positioning. By 2020 they have multiple mics with each mic chosen to best pick up each singer's voice; see "When the Party's Over" from the EP they recorded from their separate homes.
The "Evolution" MVs are all amazing. However, if you really want live, try the cover of "Problem" 3FM Live. It was done for a Dutch radio program while PTX was on tour. I don't know what the DJ said at the the end. Probably, "But---HOW?!"
loving your PTX reactions. Believe it or not, you aint seen nothin yet. Yes Gold is epic. stunning vocal patterns. fun to watch original and try to figure out how they could possibly cover that type of song. they upgrade it. waiting for the next one. peace
I knew you would appreciate this one. It's one of my favourites for all the reasons you mentioned. It's a superbly crafted live medley that allows us to track what each of them is doing at all times... and they are busy! When Kevin isn't providing furious beats, he's singing. Avi looks quiet down in the corner there, but he's actually filling in a full and imaginative bass section. And the trio are trading melodies and harmonies that are eerily like so many of the originals. Of course, when Mitch isn't channeling Freddy Mercury, it seems he can just as easily become MJ for a day. His musical prowess is astonishing. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Great reaction.
Avi taught Kevin to sing. He didn't think he could.
You have to check out Kevin’s solo work! Especially his cover of “Down”. It will blow you away!
Others have said Gold and I agree, that's amazing. As a rapper though, you should check out some of the songs they rap on. They can all rap but Mitch and Scott are the best. Try Problem, No, or Can't hold us. Or checkout Superfruit's Feeling myself. Superfruit is Scott and Mitch.
Avi doesn't rap. He was quite open about it. None of them rapped in the beginning but Mitch picked it up first.
@@gailseatonhumbert - sorry yes I should have said that Avi doesn't - Matt can though I believe! 😊
First of all thanks again skulls for reacting to PTX! I love all their evolution videos and all their evolution videos are one takes so if they mess up any point they start all over again. If you really want to see a live version of evolution of Michael Jackson do the pop spring performance it is three Original songs of PTX and the evolution of Michael Jackson. It was filmed before I live audience at a concert by MTV
"Nobody sings like Michael Jackson"
Mitch: "hold my beer"
😂🤣👏
To truly appreciate Scott and Mitch's astounding vocal abilities watch Empire Medley on their Sup3rfruit channel, Fox Broadcasting asked them to compose a medley of the songs from the first season of Empire to play over the recap of the 1st season just before the 2nd season started...masterclass, it will leave you gobsmacked
This medley sounds just like this on stage. Kevin really gets knocked off of his feet!
Great reaction I would for you to react to Avi's solo stuff so good.
It's on my to do list for sure 💯
the little 'he he' image popup at 7:36 made me chuckle way more than it should have hahah. A pleasure to watch, as always! 🙌
Bohemian rhapsody is also a must watch!
Great reaction. Avi has always stood out for me, too. I love Pentatonix, and Matt has done an amazing job as the new bass, but there is something special about Avi's voice. You should check out some of Avi's solo work. I would start with "Change on the Rise" and "All is Well -- 7 Layers."
It makes my heart feel so good to see someone enjoying PTX as much as I do!!! Kudos Skullz….
Much love! 💯
Great reaction. I especially appreciate that you seem to pay attention to every detail of the video, both visual and audio. PTX's talent never gets old for me no matter which song they are singing.
Thanks for a great reaction--I enjoyed it! Yes, Kevin is an amazing singer that we all wish we heard more. When he first started with Pentatonix, he told them he could not sing at all. The group stopped at his room unexpected and found him singing by himself when nobody was suppose to be listening and liked what they heard. Avi and Kevin later shared an apartment and Avi gave Kevin some singing lessons and some encouragement in his self confidence so we gradually heard more and more singing from Kevin as time went on. Kevin Olusola has his own channel on You Tube, 'KO', that you would enjoy checking out starting with his covers of "Down" and "Sign Of The Times". A reaction to Kevin's solo work from your perspective as a musician would be wonderful! Kevin's talent is crazy!
It's not true your story you know? Avi and Kevin roomed together from the beginning. Avi had been studying to be either an opera singer or a choral director before the Sing Off so he taught Kevin. It is also is shown several times in videos.
@@gailseatonhumbert No need to troll. We all know that Kevin is very gifted but humble and Avi was well schooled and experienced singer and choral director (Kevin was brought in for his amazing beatboxing seen on the internet). Kevin is a world class cello and saxophone player but had no awards, scholarships, formal training, or background singing so he did not think of himself as a singer at the level of the others in the group. Avi helped Kevin with technique and confidence but Kevin's talent was already there (have heard this on several interviews). Only letting newer reactors and fans about an opportunity to see that Kevin is a gift and a lot more than an amazing beatboxer. Another great opportunity to check out Kevin is an old video of him playing saxophone at Carnegie Hall when he was still a teenager in high school (Kevin Olusola "From The Top: Live From Carnegie Hall-2005) Kevin's performance and interview afterward are amazing!
When he said “Sam”, I think he meant “Scott”. Lol
You right, you right lol
Please react to Pentatonix singing
“90’s Dance Medley” and “ New Rules”
Also Kirsty shines in “ Be My Eyes” an Original She is also AMAZING in “Can You Feel The Love Tonight”👍👍👍👍
Kirsty is "Kinda Cute". Okay, the universe is "kinda big!" :)
I get so excited seeing people react to this masterpiece 💚💚 I love to hear technical and vocal analysis, thanks for that!!
Much love! 💯
I can't decide if Mitch sounds more like Michael or Freddie. It depends on the song he's singing. I never get tired of that Mitchslap. It still make my mouth drop open. I've seen so many reactors who are crazy about Michael swear that PTX are the only ones who do justice to his songs with this Medley. I tend to agree with them. These people are just insanely talented.
I am not a musician but i heard a bass player say that he sings bass like you would play a bass. I kinda know what that means but i think that’s why it sounds soooo good. Obviously his voice is utterly mind boggling but the slides and such make it feel like an instrument not just his voice.
If you get a chance try to watch season 3 of the sing off. You probably already know but Mitch, Scott and Kirsty grew up singing together. Scott was a freshman at college when, their producer now, told Scott about the competition so Scott got a hold of the other two. They found out they needed 5 peeps(rule change that year). Found Avi through a friend and Kevin on YT. The five didn't all meet until the day before the audition.
It's fascinating to go back and see just how good they were then and how excellent they've become. Gives you a good sense of how they became so tight.
They've been credited with bringing accappella into mainstream. They're all so multi talented but they've kept their kind and sweet natures through everything.
Should we tell him about Superfruit? Scott and Mitch started a side project shortly after they began to enter mainstream. It's a fun blog with themselves and occasionally some friends that they often do songs with. Many of the songs are not acapella and some are really well produced, others are simply just fun with friends. Superfruit was closed down a few years ago because it was becoming too much to handle along with their busy schedules. It's fun to explore all their work there.
@@Gwennedd lol absolutely! I thought of that but decided I'd been blabbing on enough😂.
@@marykleeberg7162 😄😉
No rule change. The Sing Off was for acapella groups who always include a bass and a beatboxer. The bass is required quite literally to build the chords and the beatboxer in modern times to fill in the rest of the music. Just the same as you always have a bass player and drums in a rock. band.
I love all their evolution videos! They are all great. My favorites are Beyoncé, Rihanna and evolution of music!
Love your appreciation of all things that make a music video! Would love to hear what you think about Avi's solo music. Most of his music are originals he only has 3 covers House of the Rising Sun, Lean on Me and OutKast's Hey Ya, well 4 if you include his duet with Peter Hollens Black is the Color of my True Loves Hair. His new album was released in May and all 11 tracks are available on TH-cam and 2 of the songs were also performed and recorded in a church in the Netherlands by 7 Layers Sessions and the are amazing. Pretty much you cannot make a bad decision with Avi's music it is ALL spectacular.
I'll definitely be checking out something of his soon 💯
This is where I immediately subbed. Pantera is awesome. But, Pentatonix is.. Everything. 💙
Haha I enjoy the acapella stuff! Glad to have you 🤘
@@Skullzrapper Thank you 😊💖
Here for it!!! 🤘
HOMIE!! ❤️
There are also booms overhead...condenser mics designed to pick broader frequencies from further away requiring less bandwidth.
Yeah...Avi. He's a classically trained vocalist and opera singer. Plus...on some of their older originals you can absolutely tell he was the writer and the arranger. He has amazing control of his vocals and is in tune with the nuances of performance.
Thanks for the great reaction to this fun Pentatonix video. All of their Evolution Of... videos are great. My favorite is "Evolution Of Rhianna. I hope that you will react to it when you get the chance.
Their "Evolution of..." vids are gold. You can't go wrong with any of them. May I suggest La La Latch, it is one of my top favorite. Pure talent!!!!
Bohemian Rhapsody is another good one to check out :)
They do Michael proud. Indo love my PTX. I also enjoy your reactions too
Appreciate that 🙏
Besides the "Gold" by Kiiara cover, I'd also suggest (based on your appreciation of Avi and Mitch in this one) that you check out their Live recording of Silent Night, filmed in a medieval German church which has the most mind-blowing acoustics for the kind of singing they do. Avi and Mitch do most of the heavy lifting in that song, especially Avi, and it's the most beautiful rendition of Silent Night I've ever heard. And it really shows off Avi's opera training.
I'm loving your PTX reactions -- thank you for sharing! This evolution video is great and they have several more medleys -- all recorded live with no edits. I actually really like hearing your thoughts on mic placement and such as that's something I don't know much about. And yeah, Pentatonix is amazing live -- they actually perform this medley along with three other original songs at the Popspring concert. The whole thing is fantastic. If you want to see Kirstie totally go off live, check out their short Seasons of Love live performance -- she's incredible.
Terrific reaction. In my eyes, they can't do wrong.
Watch ‘Amazing Grace’, if you want to be blown away.
This was so fun! 😃
I had no idea they did this!! 😳
I grew up with a dad who loved Micheal Jackson…He listened on cassette tapes in his garage the first 10+ years of my life… 😊
🎤 🎶 ♥️
That's awesome! My dad was more of a Stevie Wonder guys but was definitely a fan of MJ 💯
@@Skullzrapper Nice! I love Stevie Wonder ♥️ 😎
The amazing thing is that they do the medley 3 times straight through then go with the best one! They do all the evolution songs that way!
Here for it
Aye!!!! 🤘
Absolutely incredible love them an love this so much love your fabulous reaction.always wonderful here thanku so much love and God bless always x
PTX are awesome Thank you x
Let's goooo 🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction fam 💯
Appreciate you brother 🔥
check out their cover of bohemian rhapsody. freddie mercury would be proud !
Thx for reacting to PTX. Great reaction😀
They came up on a show called sing off, they won season 3, its worth a watch.. We'd love to watch it with you! Dont forget to watch the judges comments too, there are about 12 episodes 😊
Thanks for the fun reaction!
Happy you enjoyed it!
Kevin (K.O) honestly the respect for his talent.. he is unreal! They all are. But i strongly strongly recommend you watch Kevins cover of 'down'. You can see what he can really do... 😊😊😊
Thank you for this reaction! One of my favorites!! ❤️
Love them, Acapella, and most importantly you my friend!! ❤️
Appreciate that Katie! 😊🔥🤘
I love your reaction. I especially liked when you gave us a little in-depth analysis of what Avi was doing. Your explanation helped me appreciate it all the more.
Glad I could shine a light on their art for you 💯
Love watching your PTX reactions.
They are so amazing.
Some suggestions for next from them: Bohemian Rhapsody, Cheerleader is fun, Dance of the Sugarplum Fairies, Jolene with Dolly Parten, Say Something...I could go on forever.
Glad you're enjoying them! Thanks for the suggestions 💯
Love your smiles and laughter as it is that sort of ‘song’ happy and oh so good, regards from Australia
Much love!
All the evolution songs/medleys are live and raw like this one. Another overlooked gem is Scott Hoying from PTX & Mario Jose singing LP's "LOST ON YOU + HANS ZIMMER's theme song from the film Inception in the background. That's SO creative and how it sounds is amazing. Pure talent.
Thanks for reacting to this. I requested this in your “Hallelujah” reaction, I knew you would love it 🫶🏻
~ Mitch is definitely channeling MJ in this tribute
~ I think God sent Avi down from heaven to unite the world.
Please check out his solo work, starting with “First Place I Go”. He is so grounded and connected with nature. He is a blessing

~Pentaholic from Louisiana 🐊
These people are truly amazing! Your facial expressions tell me that you think so. I love your expression. I felt the same way you did about this song. I really enjoyed your reaction.
Your reaction made this romp even more fun!
I think their motto must be "leave the ego at the door."
Thank you so much ❤️. Your reaction is great.
*Avi's* voice is sometimes overseen which is more than unfair. If you like to hear how incredible he is please listen to "Silent Night" if you don't mind Christmas music in
July 😇🙈. For us Pentaholics that's never a problem. ✌🏻 Avi did the arrangement himself and it's such a raw, pure, emotional, heartfelt sound and song recorded sponaneously in a church.
I’ve heard that Mitch has a 6 octave range
Great reaction
Thank you!
Great reaction
Please react to voiceplay too
It s an another a capella group
If you like Mickaël Jackson I recommend you voiceplay man in the mirror
I have some voiceplay reactions up already! I have some more reactions to them in the works 💯
Listen to bohemian rhapsody it’s so good
The evolution of music is epic! Avi live blows speakers! Really.. lol 🤣
Here for it 🙋🏻♀️🎶😉
Appreciate you Christina! 💯
Great reaction! I love your genuine delight in each song they went into. Love you smile and it shows us that you are enjoying the song AND the video. Esp since you are pointing out mic locations and voices flowing over each other to blend perfectly. Keep PTX coming
Avi is one of a kind! We all miss him, but Matt is so good, just different than Avi.
Recommend their mashup of New Rules x Are You That Somebody.
Please watch the video “Popspring” or “ Spingpop” I forget which but it is so much fun . There are a couple original songs . It is live performance in Tokyo. So much fun
👋❤️
👋👋👋
You need to watch Bohemian Rhapsody. You will be mitch-slapped.
For blast from past try voice play boy band medley. Funny and very cruisey
Skullz, I am a brand new subscriber and I love your reaction style. Your shark shirt is pretty awesome too. Anyway, since you are a Michael Jackson fan, you need to check out a Thriller cover from a band called Dirty Loops featuring Cory Wong. The lead singer's voice is often compared to MJ's. They are amazingly talented musicians and probably the best Thriller cover you will ever see. If you were to do a reaction to it, I would appreciate it... A LOT!!!
Did you notice this was a one take medley?
Yes sir! 🤘
Enjoying the reaction. But, what happened to your AKG headphones?? The right side is coming apart. I've had two pair of the 240s and neither one ever did that.
I used them a lot of the road for audio gigs. The plastic came apart in the bag. The headphones I used to use in the studio are broken now 😕
Do you mean Scott? Not Sam. ❤️ the reaction.
Yes, my mistake. Much love 💯
You can appreciate Avi's bass in this one, too. th-cam.com/video/ChUAgTrTjDA/w-d-xo.html
Wait - who's Sam? Did you say Sam at (7:32) or did I miss-hear that ... lol.. did you mean Scott? I might just be tired! Ha - Love your reactions though -
No it was a mistake on my part. Sorry, I'm so bad with names 😆
Amazing Grace, plus Kleenex.
Evolution of Beyoncé
At 7.40 you say Sam do you mean Scott ???
Yeah that was my mistake.
It’s Scott not Sam
Yeah that was my mistake. So many new bands I'm reacting to and sometimes the wires get crossed 💯
