the song is cool and all but this is the least drip fit so far
here is the full video that explains
I can't wait 😃
You know I didn't expect to see the perspective of someone that passed away rather than the perspective of someone who is mourning a loss. "I didn't mean to haunt you" is literal. He is watching as his mother mourns and tries to move on, but is struggling to. This is amazingly produced and such clever writing. Full props to you Quad.
How do you know its his mother specifically
@TheNerdy Lad its shit.
@@kjfinch8866 Its cause it was his birthday and she bought candles and birthday cake to someone who doesn't even live anymore usually only parents go that far and it shows a mother in a lot of the clips as him as a child as well as he said you gave me something to believe in and its usually parents are the ones who give you a reason to live when your suicidal.
@TheNerdy Lad its shit.
Yep
it’s been a year… and it finally came… thank you Quadeca.
I've been craving brooo
Also bro the visuals are FUCKING INSANE 😭🔥
@Quаdeса 🅥 fake
Thought you said "and I finally came"
@@thijnhogendoorn6598 😂😂
Everybody getting these theories backwards. In this song it isn't about Quad missing his dead mother. It's about DEAD Quad missing his ALIVE mother.
The album is titled "I didn't mean to haunt you" and homie is legit dressed like a damn ghost. WAKE UP PEOPLE. It's a unique take on a song about losing a family member from a reversed perspective. The lines "I've been in so many tears... I've been in so many prayers... etc." It's literally about him having to witness people mourn his death while he's a ghost. And if that wasn't enough for you, he also says, "I got new birthday to celebrate" This is his birth into the afterlife, also referred to as rebirth by many. Still not enough for you? He deadass says, "I've been trying to unsee how you moved on from me." He's watching his mother move on from mourning his death.
The main chorus of "I wasn't born yesterday, I think you're goddamn lying" is about him watching his mother cope with his death and pretend she is okay. But Quadeca isn't stupid, he knows his mother is hurting and he knows that she is lying to herself and everyone else. This isn't me grasping at straws either he legit says, "You said it happened for a reason, I swear to God, I think you're goddamn lying". He knows that his mother isn't okay. But he still has to watch her mourn his death from the great beyond.
Wow. Didn't even realize that.
wow and he liked it
This theory is confirmed true, cool
UR TOO SMART
Amazing
truly an amazing song
ayy it's the goat himself
The red haired GOAT himself
w music taste tuv
And you're an amazing person tuv
Oh shit I should’ve known you fucked with Quadeca.
best song of 2022
YES
I was a fan of this song until I was casually listening to it in my garage when this cloaked fella came up with Dan Marino and beat this shit out of my mom, stole the dog, and said “that’s how diggy roles”
its okay but you're tripping
@@liquid239 let them gas up they boy
It's very good, but you forgot the heart part 5
Keep rising 👏🏾
Love thatchu so open to diff things
The homie arif
Hejsan kungen🤙
The man himself
Azerrz listening to quad, hell yeah!
I’m a 42 year old man. A single song has never broken me down as much as this has. Not only am I having a major pressure release in the form of crying but the absolute emotions this brought on so many levels has opened my eyes. I have never witnessed such creative honesty in an art form. I’ve never been so touched by something. Chills… tears… lyrical beauty and talent. A life change moment for me here.
It got me too when I heard it for the first time 😭😭 Quadeca astounds me
im sorry that was mean
I’m 31 and discovered Quadeca about a year ago, saw him in Cambridge, Massachusetts in June. I started crying at the end of this song and felt a little embarrassed, until I looked to my left and my right and both of the people looked back at me tearing up too, it was the fucking best 😅
jhelll YES brother. i Love cryin
@@xanderkbruh582
hugs
Not exaggerating when I say I’ve listened to this 50+ times already. It also made me cry multiple times. This album is gonna be a masterpiece.
Bro you just said my words
Same
@Lil Max I know you didn't ask me but I listened to on the low. It has a decent sinister sounding beat with a catchy chorus. The verses sound kinda like Joyner Lucas but with a unique spin. An improvement you could make is maybe some more beat progression rather than the chorus verse chorus setup but it is a very promising start to your career
Oh snap Quadeca’s came back as a Jedi, this bout to be good
i beg u post ur reaction to this masterpiece bro
We need the reaction
This man is not only creating very inspiring music... He is making goddamn art. There is so much detail put in every sound and visual. Absolutely unreal!
facts
This man very talented. He put passion in his music
Yeah, it's great seeing the cinematography thad swift from seeing him do bodybuild videos at my local gym in 2015 to filming visual stories!
wii music fire >>>>>
Never been a Quadeca fanboy, fucked with his videos thought his music was okay/mediocre, but now. Now I am a Quadeca groupie this song is incredible, video amazing. No complaints pure magic. Finally a creator that has a valid excuse to being dormant for awhile. Well worth it. Bravo Bejamin bravo, and thank you for this.
@Lil Max No
It’s an awful song. It was intentionally stretched out over 6 minutes and made as experimental as possible, but more experimental doesn’t= better. The music video was very good, fantastically shot, but the song? Some decent lyrics, but some very poor ones. Interesting themes throughout as well, but there is just no cohesive elements to the track which lets it all down. It’s extremely messy and not in a way which improves the song. Take Kanye- Runaway for example, that’s a 9 minute track that uses up every second of its runtime. It’s different and unique but everything feels like one and it all needs to be there, this track doesn’t provide that same concept.
@@bailey3276 Literally nobody agrees with you. I think every second of this song is necessary. I genuinely have no idea where you’re coming from with that take. This is the very first negative comment I’ve seen out of thousands.
@@bailey3276 I was a fan of quadeca's work on his last album, and I 100% agree with you. The video is amazing, but this song is just not it.
@@themidastouch9853 Do they? The feedback seems mostly positive. If you’re going to call people dumb for liking the song, then fine, I have full license to say that you just didn’t get the song and you probably would’ve liked it if he was rapping really fast. Or maybe most people just have a different opinion from you?
On my third listen, this song is so good. The layers, the silent horror, the vocal shifts, the melody, the phone calls it’s just all too good. The lyrics have a deeper meaning then what said making them feel weighted. Good Job Quadeca
Ong bruh the first listen I kinda thought it’s alright but now my 5th listen it’s sooo good work of art
@@daveee9708 righttt
i like quadeca and all but this song kinda mid…
@@ashboy131 it gets better and is very replayable despite being six minutes
@@ashboy131 the only thing mid here is your IQ sir.
only 2 mins in, but you can hear how much his production has improved from albums like voice memos. we’re all ready for the album quad!
voice memos production was still fire
@@calumoconnell5984 tahts not at all what they said they said it improved since voice memos not that voice memos sucks
@@monetary687 I am aware of that
hence my use of "still"🤝
oh you can hear it 30 seconds in
After having this song stuck in my head for almost a month now I think I've realized something about the song I didn't before. Quadeca didn't just die. He killed himself. He popped a vein and he made a wish. He made a dayplan that he should have delayed and he cut is wrists and dies, and now all he wants is out. He's seeing everyone's grief after his death and seeing how hard it's taken a toll on everyone but most importantly his mother. It gives this song an ever deeper layer of sadness cause it was Quadeca's actions that caused this and he has to witness everyone's pain after his loss. This has quickly grown to be my #1 favorite song of all 2022. Such an amazing song and music video. Can't wait for the album!
Nice interpretation.
We’ll probably get some more plot when the album comes out
Wtf u were right holy
It’s sad, melodic, aesthetically pleasing, and nostalgic. Why can’t we have more artists like quadeca?
But that's what makes him great
quadeca wouldnt be unique anymore then
@@arachnidplays6162 he would. he would be like pele x_D
Beach House and Joji
The evolution of Quadeca's music has been insane. From TH-cam rapper to making beautiful art like this. Wow...
Can't wait for the album :)
Fr, watching him grow through all three drops has been a ride in a mf half, undeniably such a talented artist.
he was a fifa youtuber before all of this!!
@@jayesse9053 for real!!! From bangers on fifa to bangers on my playlist 😮💨🤝
TH-cam rapper was imo his best version, I don’t like this emo shit
@@BryanvMunsteren both phases were good imo but I feel you
can't imagine how good it feels to finally start being seen as someone to take serious after all the work you've put in. can't wait for the album
From Dissing KSI to making an actual masterpiece. Crazy how that works isn't it.
Holly shit. I’m at a loss for words right now. The production is top tier, but that’s nothing new coming off of From Me To You, and what a chillingly beautiful introduction this was into I Didn’t Mean To Haunt You.
This really struck a cord with me. I can’t even begin to imagine just how much time, effort, and passion went into this project, but I can tell you that I’m eagerly anticipating the next single and/or the final album release.
What an incredible song. I smell another 10/10 album on the way!
This is a straight up masterclass in production, samples and writing. You have made it so far and it feels like the sky's the limit.
Vocals are way too low in the mix. Can barely hear them.
@@Pax_Mayn3 Thats the point
you mean it feels like the sky's the limit?
@@frostinstant1892 His skill ceiling is endless, entirely different meaning.
@@Pax_Mayn3 thats what he’s trying to portray. According this Quadeca have to go with the haunting/death theme.
“All the little things that I should’ve said out loud” perfectly hits what makes this song amazing. Sometimes we keep the most beautiful things inside
nah bro “those little things i did to make u proud”
@@pointblank4937 both of those lyrics emit an emotional responce from me that makes me feel like such a wimp lmao. its just so good.
I think this is my favorite song that anyone has ever made. After probably 50-100 listens it hits even harder every time. I’ve never enjoyed bawling my eyes out more than this
I share it with my friends, but they don't like it. Me myself, I think too, that, you know, me? Thinks that this song. Like no joke. Haha no pun intended. This is. The. Best Song. I have Ever Heard. I love part 2 too much
same here bro. daily listen and every day its heart wrenching
I love this direction that quad is going, the feelings I get from this song is so like pure I fucking love it
Oh I KNOW this album’s gonna be fire! The production, lyrics, and quality are INSANE…you can see, feel, and hear every single emotion
That "For No One" interpolation is integrated so subtly yet amazingly. Really fucking looking forward to the album
Yeahhh surprised I didn’t see more comments on it, it’s a really fun interpolation
I’m so glad somebody else finally pointed out. This was a genius interpolation/sample.
I think it is a sample i can hear mccartneys vocals in that
My mom listened to all of From Me To You and hated it. Tonight, she listened to Born Yesterday, and started tearing up. I think that’s a sign of a job well done, Quad
@aiuc lse ??
@aiuclse6452 what
The amount of effort, the layers, the filters, the production, the lyricism, the vocals, everything about this song is just so masterfully crafted. I’m so hyped for this album release bro.
Fr
I thought the album was supposed to come out today do you know when it does?
Here from the future to tell you this is a master piece.
Edit: here from the present, to tell you I was right.
Bro it came out 1 minute ago
Hey know I wasn't bron yesterday!
@@tyronehaworth8716 I was saying because they wouldn’t have been able to even see the whole thing
Lmao edits like 6 seconds later
@Emotional Damage ?
This is the first song in a while that moved me to tears
watch tell me a joke too
@@hasmothe5th dw, I've got the whole album on repeat :)
Music hasnt peaked since this album dropped
very true, he's the goat.
cannot describe how insane quadeca’s musical and artistic transformation have been. this song and video are both insane. been listening since voice memos, can’t wait for the next
@Whatever shut up spammer
exactly. i remember him being just like any other corny utube rapper and now hes making full blown masterpieces like this. crazy glow up
This sounds so experimental and refreshing. Can't wait for the album
Damn,based Eminem fan
that’s pretty rare lol
@@mariocristiandociu4030 thanks. you are based too for listening to quad
W Eminem Fan
My absolute favorite song ever made on my favorite album ever made. Quadeca saved my life
I got chills because after hearing this I remember the lyrics in “work” from FMTY he said “tell my mom I’m sorry that I never came home, I don’t think there will be anybody at my funeral but they can recognize the name on the grave stone”
DANGGG that hits
One of the greatest pieces of music I've ever heard. My expectations were higher than they have been for anything ever and Quad STILL smashed them, blew them out the water. I'm tearing up.
Thank you Quadeca. Bring on the album (in 2069 probably)!
Cant believe how young and talented this kid is. His 2019 album compared to this is wild. The progress is actually insane.
voice memos is still good tho, no voice memos slander please
@@Rozveree It’s pretty alright, it has some great songs but a few that are straight awful
@@Rozveree I love voice memos, it’s so nostalgic to me and it just makes me happy
quadeca, i can’t tell you how incredibly proud i am of you. THE WRITING AND PRODUCTION is done SO WELL. u are so talented king
looking forward to the album 🙏
This is genuinely one of the best music videos I've ever seen. I went to the desc. to see who directed it to check out their other work but lo and behold it was quadeca himself - even more impressive. Absolutely legendary, gonna have to rewatch this about 10 more times.
You’re a huge inspiration you have no idea, this song and video is insane
This song was amazing. You can hear his thoughts spiralling and the pain in his voice towards the start, trying to come to terms with it all, the disconnect between some of the melodies and the instrumental, mirroring the distance now between them. Then the moment he comes to terms with his emotions, realising how much he needed her, the laughing when she went away turns to crying, and the regret settles in. Truly one of the greatest artists and songs i’ve ever listened to. I’m excited to see more of your journey quad. It means so much to me and many others, thank you.
How did you explain this so well? That’s so accurate
breakup? it seems to me like his mother has died and the song is about him regretting not spending more time with her when she was alive, thus showing all the slips of quadeca as a child with her compared to him now without her, and using the tape film as a metaphor for life span idk tho.
@@mariocristiandociu4030 Thank you :). I’ve listened to him for years now and have tried to understand the hidden messages within his music. I’m glad you see them too!
@@InvictusFox It could also be that but I dont think anyone would laugh when their mom dies, thats more of a breakup reaction. Or it be both storylines of the girlfriend and mom honestly i got no idea. It is weird to have clips of childhood when talking about a girlfriend tho
@@InvictusFox maybe all that he has left is the film,representing the memories. The only thing that doesn’t fit is the lying part. It doesn’t really fit with your interpretation. So maybe the old tapes maybe just emphasised how much time has passed. The whole song is very complex and it doesn’t explain more than it needs to if at all tbh
That sample from the beatles is AMAZING, never thought anyone would use that song as a sample.
I haven't watched Quadeca since 2020 and this is the first video I'm watching from him again. This is not the Quadeca I remember but im pleasantly surprised. Love the artistry of this fr
This album seems like it'll be one of those that's weird first listen but gets better and better when you adjust, huge shift from FMTY which I loved musically straight away
100% agree mate, it was a tough listen at first but I’ve grown to understand the track after a couple listens. Beautiful eork
I feel so proud as a long time listener to see how far Quadeca has come, his music recently has been absolutely beautiful and has touched so many people myself included and I speak for many people when I say we appreciate the time and effort he puts into these masterpieces
The Beatles For No One sample is so tasteful and makes so much sense for this track. Actually perfection.
the tape recorder is a symbol of his past and by the end of the song his past is literally trapping him and preventing his spirit from moving on
jeeeez this song is an insane experience
Reaction pretty please????
the king is back
I can't get enough of this project. I've been coming back to it once a month since it released
Its been a long time since something made me feel in this way.
Who would’ve thought he’d be setting there spitting all those syllables without making a single mistake 🥶
Thank you Ben for the music with it you helped take me out of a dark place I was in ❤❤❤
Og Shit
Same quadeca is my inspiration and my comfort
@Quаdeса 🅥 so many fucking scambots
damn, glad your doing better g
@Whatever bro ill be honest youre sick, but your too sick to still be self promoting. your flow is incredible but cmon man
The part where his voice breaks??? I'm literally sobbing??? I can literally feel his heart and soul in this.
Time?

I watched this on im dontais stream and everyone was talking shit about the song. I just don’t get why they’re hating. As a fan of Radiohead I really enjoyed this song and I am invested in what’s to come next
they just mad cause it's not rap
@@zacharywoloszynski4258 they’re scared of different stuff
I’m glad that people are getting into the “not rap” thing…but this sounds nothing like radiohead.
It’s like lil peep if he didn’t die, maybe he got clean and started taking himself too seriously idk not radiohead tho
Can we get a round of applause for Thad Swift and Quadeca's video production talent? They've been working together for years and the progression is insane
the fact that you’re also the one who directed & edited this is surreal… such a talented individual
stunning visuals. very excited for this new era. seeing you grow from diss tracks to some of the most interesting production ive heard is amazing. keep it up
Its great right
Frostys looking down proud asf rn
Haven't seen a video or a song from Quadeca for a long time and I have to say I am very pleasantly surprised how much he has improved over the years. I did shed a tear, because it reminded me of my deceased mother. Very beautiful song and a stunning video. Thank you.
Wowsers. Gave me and my family of 4 chills. I don't think we're going to sleep tonight. Thank you Quadeca for another amazing song that was able to grace our ears.
This man is on another level!!!
IDMTHY will be the greatest album of 2023! (or 2024)

The theory of him being a ghost and watching his mother move on from mourning him kind of makes me think about how 2 months ago I try to take my life, and just imagining not being around my family and them moving on from my death is an interesting perspective and it makes me happy that I'm still alive because now i get to live a full life with them and really cherish these moments together.
How does he keep evolving so much
Samadddddd
Its mind boggling how far Quadeca has improved, this aint just music anymore, it’s pure art
At first I was like “okay, embracing new music. I respect it but I’m not sure it’s for me.”
After two weeks, it’s one of the only songs I listen to. “I WASN’T BORN YESTERDAY.”
I’m in tears man, not because of how haunting this story is but because of YOU, the growth
It’s such a human moment and feeling you’ve made in me, to see what someone around my age and mentality is on this planet to do and spread
You’re doing it
This song so fire, so happy it finally out
Glad to see the man is finally back!!!
Masterpiece as usual! 👍
I don't know if my opinion on an artist has changed as quickly as it did with Quadeca after hearing this song. I was a hater but this album is truly mindblowing.
Quadeca could never overcome the stigma of being a “youtube rapper” to me and i always dismissed him but with this song, he won me over, can’t wait to listen to the album.
At this point quadeca is shaping out to be as good as Joji
@@thatchet7115 Idk about that yet. I'm not even a superfan of joji or anything, but I've got to acknowledge his talent. If quadeca's album delivers like born yesterday, I definitely will agree with you. So excited for the album
the emotion, the different pathways and passages in this song. so many different possibilities and possible meanings. this song within itself is a masterpiece, quad was arguably put more effort into this song than most artists put into albums. the narrator in the background. this is just insane. amazing work quad. made me feel many different emotions all at once.
i think it's a beatles sample
This is such a visceral work of art. Everything; from the visuals to each individual sound holds meaning, and within those 6 minutes everything felt like it should’ve been there. You are criminally underrated, daddy Deca
bro when he starts crying, it feels so real. like I'm actually listening to a ghost filled with regret. amazing concept album.
While i personally am not a huge fan of the chaotic nature of this song, i can appreciate the immense effort put into the song. Its clear to see every little sound was put there for a reason; you clearly know what you are doing. It's been insane seeing your progression with your music, the atmosphere created with this new music is a whole different feeling to any artist out there. Keep up the good work and i really hope to see more of this quality music!
@boli milda folktronica, but also elements of dream pop, nothing else like this tbh

i’ve been listening to you for the past years and i’m so proud of you man! you’re music keeps me going, and i can notice how much time you put in to this! i’m hyped over this and i really look forward to the album drop!
Knowing the theme of the song and understanding the lyirics (being dead and watching people as a ghost) makes this even more sad. Brilliant song
Quad you made me cry so much when i first heard this song. This song changed my entire perspective on what the purpose of music truly is. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart❤
wow. just wow. from the visuals to the actual song itself it was perfect. thank you quad.
I'm honestly speechless, the production, editing...just everything. It's amazing, one could call it a musical and film-making masterpiece .
super excited for the album after this one
this song is so astonishingly beautiful and powerfully devastating it's seriously draining

I think this is one of the greatest songs ever made
i just got some brand new fancy headphones, so NATURALLY my first thought was "okay let's put these to the test and see how Sisyphus by Quadeca sounds on them" so i went and rewatched the video (it sounded great) and that's how i found out you'd released a new song. This also sounds fantastic on my new headphones btw. It's also just a beautiful song in general, holy shit
idk i'm kinda rambling here but i just wanted you to know that you're now the first artist i think of when i think of like... amazing, detailed production. every pair of headphones and every sound system i ever own will be judged based on the "how does quadeca sound on this" test
wait.... the "i'm currently sitting on the greatest posthumous album ever" tweet makes so much more sense now
Imagine this is ur first quadeca song and you go back and listen to voice memos
Bro, This song is a whole movie
why does this song never get old????
Tbh I really don't know how people like this song so much, Idk man I can't hear his voice or rap properly and that instrumental is confusing and meh to me, this is my opinion. I just don't understand this music style and why people like it the way they do?

@@abso2848 No. What's that?

i swear mfs be sayin this on every song/album of his and it isn't even a bad thing tbh man just keeps evolving and getting better it's crazy
its honestly insane, constantly impressed by everything he releases
the growth is insane. i never would’ve expected something profound and beautiful like this after hating voice memos lmao

Brings a tear to my eye every damn time

That's glazing bro
i love you quadeca, your music saved me, your music never disappoints, and this song may become my new favorite of yours, thank you, Quadeca
the fact that this song and video gave me that exact haunting/nostalgic feeling quad said he was going for just proves how good he is at executing his ideas. this song is incredible and i can't wait for the album
YOOO congrats on getting into fantano's top ten! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO
This truly feels like when your life flashes between your eyes, and the emotional build up is so immense. So great
