When it comes to trends, starting and inventing a trend are the same thing. He started it by inventing it, so it’s really just two different words that describe the same thing.
I think he means in the way that Sam Smith has no diction (mumbles). The vocal style is very similar in that sense. If you can't see that maybe check your ears
He has always been a musician, (his original youtube channel was called "DizastaMusic") but he took a kind of break once he found success on youtube. He played a character named "Filthy Frank" and did a bunch of like, shock material type stuff. Not really pranks but just shock stuff for the pure of shock. So it was kind of eye opening for someone like that to make beautiful music like he's been making. He even made music under his character's name in the past that was pretty good. I didn't like it too much because it was along his line of shock comedy, but he definitely had some good material as well. And joji can rap, in fact the only songs I liked from when he used the Filthy Frank name were his raps. The reason he stopped doing youtube was because it was causing him stress induced seizures, and he wasn't really passionate about it anymore. He's very passionate about his music however, and I'm excited to see him grow further.
Great comment bro hopefully they see it. I didn't like his really early stuff, like medicine, but his stuff after he stopped filthy Frank has been so good. I actually liked some of the shock comedy music he was putting out too. They we're hilarious to me at the time. I would bump it in my friend's car around town lol
@Glitchy how so? I only know him from the shock value stuff like *some* songs as pink guy, so I don't know much about him. What made it more than just pure shock tho? (Genuine question btw, so if i sounded like a smartass or something, don't take it that way)
The reason for Joji turning over to music was because he had all the characters (Pink guy, filthy frank etc.) and felt as if no one was seeing him as a normal person like us, he started having stress induced seizures, depression and anxiety. He made music to change things up which he gained huge succession from and immediately started creating more music which his fans loved, basically causing all of his comedy and skits to be left behind.
And also he started to become those characters. Even acting as filthy frank off camera, around his family and friends. So he decided to adopt a new character and keep that character permanently, then he created Joji.
So Joji is one of the most interesting people in the music industry to me. This song in particular shows off his vocal range more than any other. His normal style is definitely different. I suggest you react to at least q couple other songs from him to get an idea of his music.
Woww I'm from Asia and I'm a big fan of joji and 88rising...thank you for reacting and keep reacting to more 88rising stuff like rich brian and niki and obviously more joji🙏..
You guys have to do OutKast Andre 3000 is one of the best of all time and Big Boi goes bar for bar with him OutKast- ATLIENS OutKast- Rosa Parks OutKast- Aquemini OutKast- So Fresh, So Clean OutKast- Ms Jackson OutKast- Roses
React to: Trippie Redd - Topanga Kanye West - Blood On The Leaves Frank Ocean - Ivy The Weeknd - Wicked Games Big K.R.I.T. - Mt. Olympus Kendrick Lamar - HiiiPower Kanye West - Devil In A New Dress (feat. Rick Ross)
unpopular opinion here, probably, but blood on the leaves in by far my least favourite song on yeezus. i just dont like it. the rest of the album is flames though
GymothyCharles I feel you big time. Kanye is my all time favorite rapper but I like the more experimental Kanye or club banger Kanye than his more critically acclaimed gospel-y stuff
Man, being a Deftones fan (just so u know my kind of taste) this song is a masterpiece, the synth experimental with bunch of glissandos is amazing, powerful touching chorus, beautiful transitions, this is an amazing track
Joji used to be filthy frank which was essentially a comedy channel where he was controversial (rip pappa frank) and did music in the background on a second channel. He then stopped filthy frank to work more closely on music and has released a couple mixtapes/albums I believe
I was listening to this on the bus in heavy rain on my commute to uni yesterday. It's like it all clicked, his whole vibe is like when someone in a music video breaks up with their partner and is staring out a window onto a rainy day. This kind of sombre reminiscing tone fits most of his music very well.
3:20Am here in Australia and i nearly woke up my mum and bro when i saw this was uploaded. SOOO KEEN to hear/see your guys feeling towards this amazing song/video. Brb *Back* Ahhh yes this was the reaction i was expecting, Joji was a hliarious youtuber turned amazing artist and i 100% recommended you check more of his stuff out. Preferably Yeah Right or Will He though he has a song with Rich Brian called Midsummer Madness which is a fucking banger. Anyway thankyou for reacting to our precious Joji. Much Love
I listened for Joji and I didn't know he used to be a comedian/youtuber, he wasn't that famous in México I guess, only the harlem shake, but I love him for his music❤️👌
React to anything off the pink season album. Same guy under a different persona creating parody rap. You'll get to see his range musically and his style of humor.
Right now he is in the top 5 R&B charts and he is doing really well with his first album ballands 1. One song i recommend listening to is yeah right thats in his album as well. For a small history lesson he used to be filthyfrank, an edgy internet persona that would make crazy, disgusting and really weird videos. He used to rap as pink guy but later on he quit comedy in general because he doesnt find it funny anymore and he apparentlly had some health issues because of those videos so now he got more into music
No one: He sounds so cool and different!! We love him😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 Them: Sam Smith, Jake Paul and TGF (Head stuck in microwave video) ect😔 Definitely none on them. His past is concerning and a lot didn't like him then but I thought he was funny it just depends on your humour but I'm glad he stopped doing that and changed to music the time he did due to the change in TH-cam and his music is FANTASTIC!!
I can’t stop listening to this song! It’s just so good! It’s amazing to see how far this guy has come from Filthy Frank the cancerous youtuber to Joji the amazing artist. Great video! You should also check out Potato Salad by Tyler the Creator ft. ASAP Rocky
Check out Spooky Black/Corbin (same person), very dark interesting sound to his music and videos (Check out Without You) 😂. He's influenced by James Blake and Bon Iver.... but artist like X/Lil Peep/Joji was all heavily influenced by Spooky/Corbin music, he's criminally underrated and sings with raw pain and emotion you really feel what's he's saying...worth checking out, I reckon Gainz would appreciate his vocals like he does X's.👌 *Corbin - Hunker Down* *Corbin - Revenge Song* *Spooky Black - Reason* *Spooky Black - Pull* *Corbin - Mourn*
Forreal Corbin is the OG, I remember when that without you song went viral the video was epic. All swagged out rocking the turtleneck and durag combo lol All these new artists are Corbins semen.
The song us about a break up but hes still madly in love with a girl. Although he wants her to come back she wont let her because hes a bad boyfriend (hence "when im around slow dancing in the dark,don't folow me you'll end up in my arms.") The arrow is also a symbol for love (cupid's arrow) and the goat legs could be a symbol for the devil im not to sure.
I don't want a friend (just me) I want my life in two (my life in two) Just one more night Waiting to get there Waiting for you (all night) I'm done fighting all night (waiting for you) When I'm around slow dancing in the dark Don't follow me, you'll end up in my arms You have made up your mind I don't need no more signs Can you? Can you? Give me reasons we should be complete You should be with him, I can't compete You looked at me like I was someone else, oh well Can't you see? (Can't you see?) I don't wanna slow dance (I don't want to slow dance) In the dark Dark When you gotta run Just hear my voice in you (my voice in you) Shutting me out of you (shutting me out of you) Doing so great (so great, so great) You Used to be the one (used to be the one) To hold you when you fall Yeah, yeah, yeah (when you fall, when you fall) I don't fuck with your tone (I don't fuck with your tone) I don't wanna go home (I don't wanna go home) Can it be one night? Can you? Can you? Give me reasons we should be complete You should be with him, I can't compete You looked at me like I was someone else, oh well Can't you see? I don't wanna slow dance (I don't want to slow dance) In the dark Dark In the dark Dark

Underrated comment 💫
Hmmmm... So you are a Man of Culture huh?
he's actually Dade
I like
Johnny Sins reacting to Joji? Alright. I'm in
lmao
thats what i thought lmao
Hay u steal my idea
Bruh
Alongside Thiago Alcantara
He’s the guy who started the Harlem shake trend
It’s funny, because a lot of people don’t seem to know that.
what lol
Not started. He invented the harlem shake.
When it comes to trends, starting and inventing a trend are the same thing. He started it by inventing it, so it’s really just two different words that describe the same thing.
@@Valorince no it's not. Starting a trend means making it popular (where the trend may or may not be his/her creation) therefore i corrected him.
“I think he did pranks” Papa Franku is rolling in his grave😂
Sam Hands how come I just literally imagined him doing that while laughing 😂🤦♂️
Jim Halpert well cause it’s papa franku of course he would laugh
just a prank bro

To me he does a tiny bit in some songs, not enough to be sounding like him 100% and still has a unique sound
I was like 🤔 wtf. He is totally different
I think he means in the way that Sam Smith has no diction (mumbles). The vocal style is very similar in that sense. If you can't see that maybe check your ears
But what's wrong with sam smith!!! He's very good singer indeed
@@walterwhite2487 Good singer doesn't mean everyone has to like it... I don't like his music and not fond of his voice but he is a good singer

Oh so he has been bad at music for a really long time?
@Glitchy how so? I only know him from the shock value stuff like *some* songs as pink guy, so I don't know much about him. What made it more than just pure shock tho?
(Genuine question btw, so if i sounded like a smartass or something, don't take it that way)

This is crazy, legit got addicted to this song yesterday and then your reaction comes out the next day 🙌🏻 Can’t stop listening to this track

Biracial squad
did these people litrally compared our sad joji to freacking jake paul????
NANHI THE FUDGE
Johny sins need to stop
Yup
He compared to him as a TH-camr. But as an artist, we all know that Joji is leagues above Jake Paul. I couldn't even call Jake Paul an artist.
matt. Jake Paul doesn’t even come close to Joji as a TH-camr as well
The only thing that can compare to jake Paul is a can of beans not the internet god papa franku
“Pranks” hahaha, if only you knew
What did he do?
He cooked dead rats
Made a cake out of pubic hair
Prank’d!!
Ahh inocents
If you guys could react to “run” by Joji. You won’t be disappointed
Ope nvm jd I see ur reaction imma watch that shit r n

So Joji is one of the most interesting people in the music industry to me. This song in particular shows off his vocal range more than any other. His normal style is definitely different. I suggest you react to at least q couple other songs from him to get an idea of his music.
The video has a lot of secret meanings, I believe the animal legs are a Greek thing, a symbol of a drunk man in love, and the arrow is Cupid’s arrow
Now react to Nickelodeon Girls by Pink Guy
Lmao
White is right too
I thought his music would be throwaways at first and now i'm addicted to all his songs.
Woww I'm from Asia and I'm a big fan of joji and 88rising...thank you for reacting and keep reacting to more 88rising stuff like rich brian and niki and obviously more joji🙏..

He’s actually a very talented rapper
Most of his raps go under the name “Pink Guy” a character from his old channel “TVFilthyFrank”
Watch jojis filthyfrank, human cake video Anthony Fantano is featured in it
