Man I already know I'm gonna be crying to this album
glad to see pinely is an injury reserve fan
wow, is mr youtuber also going to be crying to this album?
u and me both bro
@@nickisnotgreen YOOOO WTF
ily pinely
when Groggs’ silhouette showed up during his verse, i legitimately teared up. its setting in, again, that he’s fr gone. this is going to be a beautiful album. thank you for inspiring, motivating, and just being there with me through the music y’all have made. REST IN POWER STEPA J GROGGS
holy fuck these last few days have been so hard, seeing that silhouette sent me over the edge and i started bawling. hearing his voice and the visual hit me so hard. RIP GROGGS THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.
Considering that this is most likely one of the last, or, the last injury reserve releases, all I have to say is thank you for everything you’ve made and REST IN POWER GROGGS
They're releasing an album soon
@@raymundoo2879 ya I know and it could possibly be their last
@@brendenbowers1 why the last?
@@jorgea.2318 Groggs passed away, who was a key member of the group
well well well
this track is like a shotgun blast to the chest. As an avid injury reserve and a black midi fan (the guitar sample) hearing Stepa talking about putting the bottle down knowing he’s since passed was a hard pill to swallow
Stepa with one P, homie
@@DowntimeMedia fixed
This album is going to hit me hard, I can’t even listen to three man weave without tearing up. R.I.P. Groggs
Same dude same
What a year it’s been feels so weird now 😭
Fetus still hits the hardest for me
@@newpancakeman that’s seriously what I was thinking today, hits some hard honestly:(
It's crazy how one of their most inspirational songs quickly turned into one of their most depressing.
FUCK, seeing Groggs' silhouette seep through made me bawl uncontrollably.
It’s a beautiful and sobering tribute
Thanks for pointing it out, wouldn't have seen it otherwise
Who
@@bentn13 ive watched this 3 times and i still cant see it
damn nvm right when i sent that i saw it :(
Wow, didn't expect this... RIP Groggs.
I have genuinely never heard a song like this, this is absolutely incredible
Really? I’ve heard a ton of rap songs like this.
u must be listening to not that lot of music lately, then, I guess
Can you give us examples?
@@ItsDigiUtime Ja; a few that come to mind are ‘Red Dust’ by Billy Woods ‘Rehearse with Ornette’ by Armand Hammer & ‘An echo from the hosts that profess infinitum’ by Shabazz Palaces
@@ItsDigiUtime And thats just Rap songs like this. Some that are not rap are; City Song, Less Sex, Screen Shot, Just a Little Boy, People Like Us, Cloud of Unknowing, Reggae, Western, Ducter, Crows Perch, Breadcrumb Trail, Nosferatu Man, Good Morning Captain ect
I don't know how a song with this kind of structure is sticking with me so hard. But it's in my head.
it's definitely stuck in my head but it honestly sounds like shit lol. some of the lines are very powerful, but everything else just feels so dead, like the raps are so off tone lmao it's messy af
and yet I keep coming back bc "knees hurt cuz I'm grown, and that's a tough pill to swallow" that's beautiful
@@noerddanger2687 oh it does not sound at all like shit. I'm on like my 10th listen and it just hits in a diff way now
@@noerddanger2687 Sounds like shit? Bruh
@@noerddanger2687 em, the song sounds amazing
this album was my first exposure to Injury Reserve and seeing Groggs silhouette just hurts. No one should lose a friend like that
How did he died?
@@cryingmakesmehorny4632I don’t think we know
I still have my live from the dentist office t shirt and CD with the cardboard box addressed from 'the dentist office'... man 2015 feels like a lifetime ago but I've been rocking with you since then and I'm ready to go to the end
Rest in power to Groggs and let's all use our time well while we still have the chance
I wont lie that im a new fan. Only started listening to them this year, but their discography had been accompanying me throughout this whole year. I hope this won't be the last album we hear from them but if it is, i would say thank you for all the music. they are my favourite rap group, and i sometimes hope the world wouldnt be this harsh for them and they could get as famous as they deserves.
Also Rest in power Groggs, we will miss you forever
Doesnt matter when you found them, only that you did! Love to see new people discover incredible art
Once a fan, always a fan
Found them like a year or two ago but only really started going into their discography around the end of last year. Been a huge fan since. Keep on slippin is easily one of my favorite songs.
Thank you guys for everything.
I know this is probably going to be the last injury reserve album, but I really hope Ritchie and Parker keep making music together. I’ve never heard any rapper that sounds like Ritchie and I’ve never seen such amazing chemistry between a rapper and a producer. I really hope this album is the sendoff groggs deserves and doesn’t mark their retirement. We can’t lose such unique voices like this
Maybe they could change their name to just Injury or something, idk. This is literally my first time hearing this song and group and I'm blown away.
and your prayers are heard
did you all just sample black midi?? god damn i'm so excited for this project. this is gonna be one for the books. even if it's the last one i'll be fine with that, you guys are great. rip groggs man ❤
black midi drummer Morgan Simpson’s also playing drums on the first track of this new Injury Reserve album :D
what song did they sample?
@@Hehxgdudh sweater
I was waiting for this comment
TBE
Watching the Ttktv music video on MTV on a random night before I was supposed to graduate highschool is what made me realize I wanted to make music.
Thank you Ritchie
Thank you Groggs
Thank you Parker
Man seeing the silhouette of Groggs than it not showing up again fucking killed me inside, Rip to Groogs
No matter where they go from here, its crazy what the three of them accomplished. I was so lucky to be able to see them all perform back on 4/20/18 in Athens, OH,, str8 up drove 2 hours just to see them all. Crazy ass show in the upstairs of the bar, Jpeg opened for them. IR had dope ass light effects and the whole crowd was hyped. I feel so fortunate to have seen Groggs feeling himself on stage, I will never forget that night and I cherish that memory
that's a show my college radio station put on, thank you so much for coming and rocking with us. was such an amazing time + amazing dudes.
@@dianabuchert2682 that's amazing. you rock!
I saw them in 2018 with Jpeg opening in San Francisco at Slim's which is now closed. I went to that show solo and and the experience was amazing. Parker Richie and Groggs stayed after the show signing merch and I remember how proud groggs was playing a somewhat local show since he was from fremont. They all signed my I heart IR shirt and I have it framed on my wall. I am so glad i got to experience them when I did. both Injury Reserve and jpeg have gotten exposure since then
@@bassplayah707 that’s so dope bro, keep that shirt forever and ever
Was at the same show and to this day I think about how special it was being in that crowd screaming the lyrics to Ttktv. First time ever seeing an artist I truly gave a shit about. Groggs will be missed but not forgotten.
Rest In Power Groggs
there's a puddle on my desk damn it stop with this tearjerking jargon i love it too much
I think it took me up until now to fully realize Groggs is gone.
Rest In Power
Love you guys. None of us thought you were going to release again and we were alright with that, stay strong and we are excited to listen to this album. Rest in power Stepa J Groggs, wishes go out to his family, Parker and Ritchie.
couldn’t have said this better 🔥🔥
that really was a tough pill to swallow holy shit
“It’s a tough pill to swallow” I’m not ready for this album, it’s gonna hurt
I remember watching a Peggy interview last year and he said these guys were dope so I checked them out. He wasn’t lying. But then maybe a few months later, Groggs passed right as covid was ramping up. He was phenomenal, which was captured in this. RIP man, can’t wait for this album.
This is such a surprise, I can only imagine the amount of emotion that’s gonna be behind this project, can’t wait
Such a nice black midi Sweater sample, amazing!
This is gonna be a hard watch
hope you guys are doing well. i'm so excited for the new project
This is the song of the decade so far, and it’s not even close. Rest in power, Stepa J. Groggs.
I regretted not finding this group sooner. RIP Stepa J Groggs. I really hope its not too late to be a fan of Injury Reserve.
never late
Thank you for everything. RIP Groggs.
Man, when Groggs starts to do his verse and lights flashing his silhouette has honestly got me fucked up and crying
Rest in power Groggs.
it was so tragic it got me so fucked up
Bruh I ain’t even see that the first watch. Hit rewind and on the first flash started fucking crying 😭
How’d he pass?
@@supersupera82 Was never publicly announced my G
the thumbnail makes it so real. rest in power 🤍
This has been the longest 5 minutes of my life and I enjoyed every second of it to the fullest. Amazing track and an amazing album.
Can’t imagine what y’all have been going through.
Your music means the world to so many of us. Thanks for everything you’ve given us - an escape, a should to lean on and tons of damn good times.
Your music is something I’m going to carry with me until the day I die
Amen.
Amen
Been putting off this listen for a while. Was always just a casual fan and it felt like crashing a funeral. But I had two friends die from overdose recently, one of which was a huge influence on me as a person for a really long time, and nothing else feels as accurate as this rn. Especially in the ending. When you find something like that out, everything feels like it's slowing to a grinding halt, and everything just deflates, and it feels like the world isn't the same one it was before and you don't know how to go forward anymore, you're just in this awkward void of being faced with death that you can't get out of
It’s good to talk about it. Just writing what you wrote above is a good idea.
This shit is beautiful. Honoring your brother the best way you could have with this project i can feel it.. RIP Groggs
this is one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking things i’ve ever seen i don’t have much words
This beat is actually really painful the more I listen to it. It feels so off-beat, out of a coherent rhythm. Like the beat is literally LIMPING, losing footing while trying to walk.
I wish it did sound that way. Thats what its trying to achieve at least.
100% It really sounds like it's struggeling to keep up, like it isn't complete, like it's grieving.
@@Humannbeing i think it achieves it perfectly, but thats me
@@Humannbeing Man I´m seeing feew of your comments under this track, you really don´t like this beat, do you? Like you are eager to express your opinion anywhere you can hah. Kind of funny.
@@brunodizajner Its not really funny mate. I like the beat, i dislike the fact that black midi aren’t credited on this song & that the song is not creating something new just lazily rapping over a previous song and then putting their name on it.
Grogg's verse hits so much harder in context with the full album. Because it's his only verse on the album. And it's towards the end of the album. It gives it this ominous air around the lyrics.
This the only song to ever make me cry
Hey gonna tell you a cool story about when I saw Injury Reserve!! In My hometown which gets no international tours at all so I booked it just stoked that someone was making the trek down here!! So I went after the show they were meeting fans I took a normal picture with them and a silly picture I think I dabbed in!! Ritchie wanted me to do a silly one!! Anyway Groggs Patted me on the back and thanked me for coming!! A small gesture but still showed me how good the injury reserve Lads were as human beings!! I was really sad when I discovered groggs had passed but hope this album is a great tribute to him and the Art he made In Injury Reserve RIP Groggs!
we've never heard groggs sing like this and the man is singing his ass off! RIP
Exactly what i thought. RIP Groggs
RIP Groggs. The three of you have really brought me copious amounts of joy since I first heard of you a few years ago. Parker inspired me to look more into sampling and Ritchie and Groggs taught me just to speak my fucking truth. I really developed a confidence I’d never had before just to fucking let loose, and go crazy experiencing a song that made me feel ALIVE. That song for me was the first I heard from you - Oh Shit!!! You have no idea how many dark nights you got me through, and dude I’m not much more than a hippie-ish 23 y.o white girl but I’m so fucking glad I found your music. I wish you well with whatever you choose to do after this album x
I've cried to this so many times over the past few years. I've failed to beat alcoholism and I can't even pay my rent because I live in the middle of nowhere with only 1 business and lost my old job because of low business. Everytime I find a job under the table I end up blowing my money on alcohol because I want a cheap escape and enjoy but also regret it every time. RIP Groggs he speaks exactly how I feel so articulately.
how are you doing man?
How are things now bro?
Stepa was a poet, pure genius, I already know Ritchie and Corey did wonders on this album for Groggs. Gone too soon
Them sitting there, feeling this, it's better than any other kind of performance they could've given.
A overwhelming piece of humanity in this shit, thats what.
what
@@usrnam8795 This song is talking about being human, we all will go through pain as we grow up, just like how our knees go through pain during puberty
“My knees hurt when I grow” some of the most felt lines of the new decade so far.
I’ll never forget your October concert in 2019 at El Rey Theater, Los Angeles. Thank you for being there for me Injury Reserve. May Stepa Groggs Rest In Peace.❤️🕊
That concert was nuts.
RIP Groggs, your silhouette along with everything you've done will be forever remembered.
you guys mean so much to me. i was able to meet you guys twice in slc when you came, groggs was the sweetest person ever and when we were talking he asked if i wanted to get a picture with y’all at kilby. it’s something that i’ll treasure forever, thank you for this
my mother died in june. she was the only one i had my whole life. i love you all, god bless your souls
Single of the fucking year. This song is absolutely incredible. Such smart use of a black midi sample and those vocals are stunning.
Hows it a smart use of a black midi sample? They just fuckin’ took the whole song and made it worse
@@Humannbeing that’s your opinion. i personally loved what Parker did with the instrumental and how the vocals match up with it. I’m sure the black midi boys do as well.
@@charliesmith6874 At this point its not even just my opinion. They undoubtedly made this song worse. The original song is almost a instrumental itself so it hurts even more. Im sure when black midi listened to this they weren’t chuffed that there song now has the name ‘injury reserve’ on it, especially after all the time they put into making it.
@@Humannbeing well, I don’t know why you’re arguing with me when I’ve just said it’s your opinion. and do you know the connections of these people? Morgan Simpson is literally playing drums on Injury Reserves upcoming record. They are friends. They clearly have respect for each other. And stop trying to argue that you have the “right” opinion when that simply doesn’t exist.
@@charliesmith6874 Thats such a straw man. The right opinion definitely exists. Is lil pump better than this song? Obviously not; so the right opinion would be that this song is superior. I guess if the drummer worked with black midis drummer then maybe the others are cool with it (as the song features very minimal drums) but they shouldn’t be.
that thumbnail is heartbreaking. long live groggs man. we always loved what you did injury reserve and your impact will never be forgotten
thanks for everything you’ve done so far IR. may Groggs rest in piece.
thank you guys for everything,
hand on heart yall changed my life & i pray you each find peace
saw this live, changed my world.
Parker Corey is a musical genius, black midi's song sweater (the one being sampled) lasts over 10 minutes, this dude only used 15 secs of it, plus Groggs verse hits on another level r.i.power
injury reserve and black midi together is a fuckin gem to my ears
Seeing this news has gotten me super emotional. Thank you for everything y’all have done. Y’all’s music will forever be oh so inspiring. Thank y’all for helping me thru the years, yalls music taught me to be myself.
This is the first time I've been able to listen to Knees since it was released. It's just too much....
Y’all are stronger than most. Thank you for holding it down for Groggs, your fans, and the state of AZ. We fucking love you guys! Never forget.
Been listening since Dentist Office, it’s amazing to see how you guys have progressed artistically throughout the years and I know that Groggs must be proud too, seeing how you guys continue to push your sound further even now. Regardless of what happens, whether you continue to carry on as Injury Reserve or pursue something else, just know that you guys have touched and inspired so many people with your art and for that we’re all grateful. Thank you so much guys, and Rest in Power to Groggs
This song is so experimental and yet so catchyy
genuinely the most necessary album
I didn't even know this video existed. Man. This song does something to me on a deep, human level, and might possibly go down as an all time great for me.
5 seconds in I already feel like crying
When are you going to post the reaction to this one? If you are ofc
I had never listened to this band before. I just saw them live with armand hammer and their live show was incredible. it gave me goosebumps and so while i was on the plane home i listened to this album without knowing the story behind it. it nearly made me cry. now that i know the story it feels even worse. what an incredible album and band. r.i.p. Stepa Groggs.
this shit has me crying especially when he appeared on his verse while parker and ritchie were grieving
Discovered Injury Reserve at Irving Plaza in NYC on the Underachievers tour. Been a fan since that night. Witnessed your Gramercy headline show in all its glory, what an amazing experience! Thank you for putting your heart and soul into making what I consider truly unique hip hop/music. Bitter-sweet moment listening to this new track, I'm excited for new music, and whether or not this is the last IR album, thank you for blessing us with your music. R. I. P Groggs
snow represents change I think that line 'I dont think im growing no more, I dont think its snowing no more" is amazing .and deeply self reflective I never cried to music that was like this before
I cannot get any more excited
I haven’t gotten chills like this from music in a long time. thank y’all for creating. your music gives me life.
For anyone that wants to know, that looping riff sample is from “Sweater” by Black Midi.
I have no words to express how happy and sad I am right now. No matter what's next, I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we are grateful for your music and the impact it had on us. RIP STEPA GROGGS AND LONG LIVE INJURY RESERVE
Serious old school Tricky vibes with this, and much appreciated.
Thank you Injury Reverse for everything
Wow. IR has been on the playlist for awhile, finally got to exploring more of their work recently and with this new release, it’s amazing to hear them making music that they clearly want to make.
Rest in Power Groggs,
Ritchie low-key got the voice of an angel...rip Groggs. Shit made a nigga tear up
Abruptly and unexpectedly lost my closest friend a couple of months ago. This video/song brought me to tears. It's perfect. Thank you for putting it out.
who hasn't cried hours over this
It's incredible how heavy the emotions hit with this. The realness is on another level.
Discovered Injury Reserve just Yesterday and I’m fucking glad I did. Rest In Peace Groggs.
The Groggs outline when his verse come in…. God dammit man. RIP
going to miss seeing them live. always went to any of their LA/OC stops. Some of the best shows of my life.
i dont think this will be their last album, i think ritchie n parker will keep going as injury reserve, as they climb to the top, more n more people will go back n listen to these first 5 projects n get to know groggs there, n he’ll live forever in the art.
rest in power groggs
Who knows, they don’t seem to have given indication either way
Nah Injury Reserve aint Injury Reserve without Groggs. They'll split off after the album and do their own thing or become a duo, but it would feel weird to continue as Injury Reserve without Groggs
@@jaaaaacob if the make a duo, they better be called ritchie with a P
I don’t think they’ll stop. Music is still their passion and they have to make a living somehow
I hope it’s a New Order type of situation
This video has major On GP energy
I remember being here from Live from the Dentist Office. Watching the Everybody Knows, TTKtV, washed up, whatever dude videos religiously. I was 14. I thought I was cool having discovered them trending on Reddit because of Fantano. I’m so glad I was part of this journey. I’m proud to have played a role. I was devastated hearing about the death of Groggs and so I can’t imagine how those closest to him feel. The sentiment of not feelimg you can grow again is haunting on this song- Injury Reserve can’t grow again. That’s a tough fucking pill to swallow.
saw u guys in toronto a couple years back . easily one of the best shows i’ve ever been to. energy was absolutely unreal. thank u injury reserve for soundtracking some of the most important years of my life. RIP Groggs ❤️
i was listening to north pole earlier today and couldn’t shake the feeling that knees feels like a direct evolution from that one song. everything from the instrumental to the subject matter of the lyrics surrounding growth, alcoholism, & death just kinda made a connection in my mind. obviously knees & north pole aren’t supposed to share anything , they’re two different songs with different context to them but it was just an observation.
If Ritchie and Parker continue under a new name they will pretty much be rap Nirvana
Didn't expect this at all... Thank you guys for everything that you've done. Rest in peace groggs.
Nah its only been 2 hours and this song is getting me through a lot
R.I.P. Groggs 🙏🏻 we love you!
this was the closest thing to a legitimately religious experience i've had in a very long time
Well then for gods sake; listen to ‘Sweater’ by black midi
@@Humannbeing oh I absolutely love black midi
@@narrovast3319 don’t you feel as if this Is remixed version of sweater?
Thank you for coming into my life in a crucial period. The music you guys made helped save me and played a large part in me growing up. For all of the amazing music, I can never repay any of you. RIP Groggs
i started listening to u guys in highschool. i rehret not going to ur shows and seeing groggs while i had the chance. thank u for everything. the years of inspiration and introducing me to my favorite form of music and experimentation.
Rip Groggs man I found out about injury reserve recently and its really sad that a musician like him was taken from us
