This is the most excited I’ve been for a reaction of yours in awhile. Mista Thug Isolation is still one of the most underappreciated projects of the 2010’s.
@@MXXKRXXI don’t think any tracks off of it have more than 10 million streams on Spotify. It’s not underrated at all by people who know, but not many do.
Yo Bobby I'm not sure who put it in your head that this was supposed to be a parody but I don't agree with that at all. A parody implies that it's making fun of its source material when that's not what's happening here. This is 100% an homage. Travis is a dude that has a genuine appreciation for dirty south hip hop especially the stuff that was coming out of Memphis in the 90s and early 2000s most of which featured hyper violent lyrics with lots of references towards drugs crime and sex. Lil Ugly Mane at least on this project is Travis portraying a character (the other two LUM projects seem to lean less on the character though). Which is why the lyrics are so outlandish. I like to think that Lil Ugly Mane is Travis channeling his nihilism into this over the top gangsta character. I mean Ugly clearly doesn't give a fuck about nothing lol and maybe that's where Travis was at at that point in his life or maybe I'm just overthinking it lol 🤷🏽 Either way this is definitely a cult classic record and I appreciate that you're willing to dive into the more weird side of hip hop wish you would do it more often as I can tell you have more fun reacting to shit like this rather than some of the more run of the mill trap stuff. Hoping for more billy woods reactions! You missed We Buy Diabetic Test Strips by Armand Hammer from last year. I know you would like plus you don't want to get left behind on the billy woods train he's one of the best out right now also there's some jpegmafia production on that album if that entices you at all lol
Travis Miller (Lil Ugly Mane) is in my opinion one of the greatest musicians of our time. Every album is a new sonic re-invention even from the variety of names he releases music under. My personal favourite project of his is Volcanic Bird Enemy and The Voiced Concern. Such a weird and other worldly album, nothing rlly sounds like it. would love to see you cover that one next! Much love from 🇦🇺
Travis Miller was a prolific noise musician that made this album for fun/as a side project and it completely blew up and overshadowed his other work. As a result, the rest of the Lil Ugly Mane discography is wildly different than this as he basically attempted to not give people what they wanted, making some of the lowest, most genuinely dark hip hop records of all time with Oblivion Access and Bedwetter. His track Uneven Compromise is also one of the highest rated singles of all time on RYM, its a single song with multiple arcs in different styles. If you're not down to explore his entire discog then at least you should definitely check out Volcanic Bird Enemy to get a general idea of his versatility. Pls just react to volcanic bird enemy as your next video, the effect will be much better if you listen to them back to back
my interpretation is mista thug isolation is meant to be a persona that mane throws up to come with the fact that he really hates his life, it slips through, like on lugubrious, but throw dem gunz is where it kinda finally falls apart. The facade has cracked, and he’s ready to die. I would listen to volcanic enemy bird next, which is my favorite album ever made, or oblivion access.
Also slips through in the beginning right in the opening verse of Serious shit. The album gives me the vibe of a gangster that has made it and lives in a big mansion on his own and has everything but in reality really has nothing and is all on his lonesome. All he really has is regret and pain from his actions of the past, and the money/ballin has done nothing to stop his pain. Almost like Daniel Plainview in the end of There Will Be Blood. Maybe I'm reading too much into it lol but that was always my interpretation.
yeah it's obviously an exaggerated character he's playing but "parody" implies he's specifically tryna make fun of other ppl's music and style when in reality it's the exact opposite. this shit is a loving homage
After watching, I seriously agree with everyone else here that you should listen to Volcanic Bird Enemy and the Voiced Concern. You will be absolutely blown away
LETSGO BOB, this is such a banger. important thing to remember is this came out in 2012, it was revolutionary for soundcloud at the time. cant recommend volcanic bird enough, its one of my favorite albums of all time. oblivion access is also super out there and a really cool listen. lil ugly mane is such an important artist.
i love throw dem gunz, not just because it's great but also because it foreshadows the tone of ugly mane's future work. lil ugly mane is a genius imo edit: also want to add that this album is not at all ironic or a parody. it's a love letter
This is the most excited I’ve ever gotten for one of your uploads. This has been my fav album anytime someone would ask me! I know you didn’t need to do this reaction but I’m rlly glad you did.
what i love bout this album is it starts as like a hyperbolic parody of memphis rap and turns into a deconstruction where its just depressing and he wants to die
This album still gets rotation like it just came out. It's aged so well. Breeze Em Out is one of my go to songs during the summer when im just driving around.
No one’s gonna read this but before Vampire Weekend the two main members were in a rap duo. They got interviewed about this duo once they were hugely popular as Vampire Weekend and the lead singer’s response always stuck with me: “It’s funny, but it’s not a joke” That’s how I feel about certain elements of this album. Obviously ugly doesn’t have crates of guns and drugs at the crib - he’s a musician, formerly a noise musician! - but he’s definitely been around/fucked around with both so it’s not like he’s doing a complete fabrication of events, and again it may be funny but it’s certainly not slapdash (in its lyrics or instrumentals) Thanks bob ‼️👍
You should check out Quedeca's new project, Scrapyard. I think you'd like it, and I'd recommend his album "I didn't mean to haunt you". Both are very good
Yes! Scrapyard is a mixtape, so much less intimidating as a way to get into his music (but also just a really good listen). Great first project to listen to from him!
You should check out his single "On Doing an Evil Deed Blues"; Mista Thug Isolation is him paying homage to hip hop, especially memphis rap and horrorcore, but ODAEDB is him being completely disillusioned with it, as well as a great portrayal of his artistic vision in general. If you want to learn a bit more about his state of mind around that time (as you said in the reaction) that'd be a good place to start. It's an interesting contrast. I'd urge you to check out his entire discography, tbh. LUM is a musical genius, and an eclectic one at that. His latest album is literally an indietronica project.
"Mista Thug Isolation is him paying homage to hip hop, especially memphis rap and horrorcore" Do you see the problem with this? You're saying he doesn't have his own sound.
@@user-vp6cq4sv3dNo, I'm not saying that. I'm saying that LUM takes memphis rap for a spin in Mista Thug Isolation. One can make of any style what one wants; being conflated to a genre or theme does not make you instantly a copy cat of it. LUM is an insanely unique rapper, it just so happens that part of what makes him unique is his branching out and taking his sound into multiple directions. He does all of it in his own way though, so sorry if I somehow implied otherwise.
@@bloodhailed Oh ok. I just found it to be disingenuous since he started doing black metal using Seidhr as his alias. He's always made foreboding, atmospheric music in some form or fashion and has made collaborative projects involving alot of rap. Mista Thug Isolation was a happy accident that wasn't designed to blow on purpose but it certainly weren't no isolated incident. It just so happened to be his debut album is all.
Bob, if you want to understand Lil Ugly Mane, please listen to the single "Uneven Compromise." Halfway through the track his authentic voice takes over and the character of "Lil Ugly Mane" is shown for what it really is.
We’ve been waiting for this review for a while. One of my favorite hip hop projects. Theres just something about it that I can’t explain but it’s so good.
1:26:05 Twistin was a song on another album called God of Black by Spaceghostpurrp, who is an interesting character but great producer and rapper nonetheless. I recommend you check some of his projects out Nasa Gang, BLVCKLVND Rvdix 6.66, or Dark Angels. The music is dark, atmospheric, and a very unique sound similar to what you listened to here. Out of all his projects I recommend Dark Angels since its the most listenable and underrated. (edited to fix some false info)
So cool to see you do this now, it was literally on top of my imaginary list of suggestions for you (probably followed by A Piece of Strange). Imo its in incredible album and has over the years crept up to a top 10, maybe top 5 hip hop album ever. This dark, twisted, kinda nasty, depressed, hardcore atmosphere here is kinda unique with the quality of rap and production. Very excited for this one! Btw Travis Miller is also a big Metal fan and released some Deathmetal tracks as "Vudmurk" if you're interested
you NEED to listen to Volcanic Bird Enemy And The Voiced Concern. its such a huge contrast from Mista Thug Isolation's unseriousness into an emotional and vulnerable masterpiece
hell yeah, i have been wanting to recommend this since i dont see it in your schedule, but afraid it might annoyed you, knowing you probably got hundreds other recommendations from other people. but im glad youre having fun with it, id love to see reaction for his more serious projects like uneven compromise and oblivion access, love your vids bob!!
You have to do Volcanic Bird Enemy now!!!!! Also, Bob, if you do end up listening to more of Ugly's music, its clear that this albums character is a front for his loneliness and depression. There is a genuine artist underneath the layers of braggadocio here, which is revealed more fully on his following projects. The pinnacle moment of this is on his album Volcanic Bird Enemy, which I cannot recommend enough! Also, I would say this is parody, only it's done with such respect to the original idea, that it elevates this music to an artform in and of itself. It's sincerely absurd. Have a good one Bob, Enjoy!
this album is so good, thanks for this bob. i respect the hell out of u. imma write a whole ass essay out in the comments here at some point, probably next time i get baked
I really hope we get a MIKE album to continue de "underground classic", you already reacted to a Ka and a Billy Woods album even if I'm hoping to see more reactions from them, but MIKE absolutely deserves it, especially after you reviewed Some Rap Songs which feels like a demo of the style that MIKE created, I feel like you would like Disco the most as an introduction but you really can't go wrong with his discog, his last album Burning Desire was by far my AOTY of last year
BOB THIS IS NOT A PARODY!!! BOB THIS IS NOT A PARODY!!! BOB THIS IS NOT A PARODY!!! To be completely honest while Ugly Mane has some out there lyrics everything he does is intentional. This album is an homage to the Memphis/Southern sound
Dude I thought about recommending LUM multiple times ever since I started watching you but I didn’t want to be that guy spamming in the comments to “please listen to this” but fuck yea man, this album is legendary and it’s sick as hell you’re actually checking it out
i just wanna say, Ugly Mane is one of my favorite artists. he's extremely versatile and he's insanely good at every single thing he decides to make, he also has been doing this music shit for a WHILE now. and i just wanna add onto this album, Denzel Curry's verse was made when he was 17 (so i can definitely see why you were surprised on how different he sounds) and he was part of RAIDER KLVN, a collective of underground hip-hop from the early 2010s (the whole story behind this group like SpaceGhostPurrp and his beef with Denzel, A$AP Rocky is a must to dive into). their influence in rap genuinely cannot be understated, they brought back that more dark, horror style of hip-hop like you'd hear from Three Six Mafia and other memphis groups from the 90s, but it's still entirely it's own thing and they bring in also that very psychedelic, ethereal, experimental sound to it. regarding Lil Ugly Mane, you need to listen to more of his stuff, it's all so different from each other but amazing each time. Uneven Compromise, Oblivion Access, Bedwetter, Volcanic Bird Enemy and The Voiced Concern are all projects SO worth of listening to. Again, great video Bob, and laughing at some of these tracks with you made my mood so much better, because really a lot of the songs on this project can be ridiculous lyrically. I do stand on this album being really good though and disagree with your dislike for a bit of the songs, especially Lean Got Me Fucked Up. It's one of my favorites because of how dark and creepy it is but i get how this project can throw you off putting some of these songs next to each other
If you listen to some classic Memphis rap like 3-6 Mafia or artists like Tommy Wright III you would understand Lil Ugly Mane's music more. Literally his entire sound is inspired by that dark classic memphis rap
you should consider listening to his most recent album, its a complete genre switch and it actually has really meaningful lyrics that you could analyze
people know twistin but if only they new of the vocal sample on it by BG Knoccout. one of the greatest G Funk songs off all time from one of the most underrated G Funk artists of all time. real brothers is an all time classic
Damn right! And Dresta did a lot of ghost writing for Eazy E. But this one from that Eazy tribute album. Track called ‘Dat’s how I’m living’. BG had the best flow in gangster rap back then: He and Dresta were Eazys nr1 project on Ruthless, then BG Knocc Out went to jail. Bone Thugs took their spot and the rest is history.
MTI still sticks with me as one of my favorite albums of all time, especially when you compare it to his other works. This album is truly a caricature piece of the Memphis hip-hop of his era. I don't even listen to rap much often anymore but the production and flow of a lot of this album is really special. A lot of his work varies a lot. Check of the rest of his stuff out!!!!

yes
don't forget On Doing an Evil Deed Blues!

A parody doesn't necessarily mean it's making fun of something though
@@dionbomers1312that's exactly what parody is though, it could be a loving parody for sure but it's still making fun by being a parody
Mista Thug Isolation is like a maximalist homage to memphis-rap - everything is turned up to 11.
10/10 comment. Well done rando internet dude!
The copyright restrictions on this album are very light, so I was album to post the uncut version AND hopefully there are no ads. Enjoy!
Holy shit thats GOAT behavior 🙏
Ugly mane is for the people bob. Check out Bedwetter and volcanic enemy (and Trick Dice)
Bob is for the people
@coolbreeze4249 holy shit a trick dice reaction would be fucking legendary
you gotta listen to bedwetter if you want his really deep shit

@@McDiesel27 I agree but I feel almost like the character here is Ugly’s Tyler Durden…he reflects something inside of him that can never be realized
hey bob you should check out his other album ‘volcanic bird enemy and the voiced concern’. super different to this and in my opinion even better
Based pfp
Mfs be skippin oblivion access 😭
@@Amethyst_Deceiver1 Seriously, Oblivion Access is a must before Volcanic Bird Enemy.
Besides the bedwetter album this is the only one where he raps like this? I mean like with this solidified style and shi
honestly bedwetter is a must, i really wanna see bob's reaction to man wearing a helmet, & this in not my stomach
Bob reacting to a SpaceghostPurrp mixtape has gotta be on the cards soon now
Blackland radio pt 2 would be. Crazyyy
and Ugly mane made the cover and released his first song (U AINT FROM MY HOOD) on SGPs Blvcklvand Radio 66.6
Lil Ugly Mane did the album artwork for Blackland Radio 66.6
nasa gang would hit
You are the greatest reactor to ever do it holy shit
seriously, Bob is so funny. His laugh is so contagious. When he was laughing at Breeze em Out it made me realize how funny and amazing that song is
he really has the best commentary
he really is
I highly recommend his other work, Oblivion Access, shits incredible, dark, depressing, but beautiful honestly
Oblivion Access is soooooooooooo good
Smoke in your eyes, the world's a joke in disguise
this dudes gotta hear intent and purulent discharge is alls im saying lmao
The Weeping Worm is amazing aswell. I think Passion Sceptre is one of the best experimental hip-hop songs ever.
whoever told you its a parody was tripping
Had to be someone who hasn’t listened to much Memphis rap. More of an homage through his own creative lens for sure
I feel like “character” is a better word
it's more of a satire if anything
I think it's more of an exaggeration of Memphis rap
yeah it's obviously an exaggerated character he's playing but "parody" implies he's specifically tryna make fun of other ppl's music and style when in reality it's the exact opposite. this shit is a loving homage
bob imma say this: he really can make some of the best music ever made
you'll know when you hear it in the future
this
After watching, I seriously agree with everyone else here that you should listen to Volcanic Bird Enemy and the Voiced Concern. You will be absolutely blown away
Lil Ugly Mane gunna live forever through his art . Immaculate human-being.

i just wanna say, Ugly Mane is one of my favorite artists. he's extremely versatile and he's insanely good at every single thing he decides to make, he also has been doing this music shit for a WHILE now. and i just wanna add onto this album, Denzel Curry's verse was made when he was 17 (so i can definitely see why you were surprised on how different he sounds) and he was part of RAIDER KLVN, a collective of underground hip-hop from the early 2010s (the whole story behind this group like SpaceGhostPurrp and his beef with Denzel, A$AP Rocky is a must to dive into). their influence in rap genuinely cannot be understated, they brought back that more dark, horror style of hip-hop like you'd hear from Three Six Mafia and other memphis groups from the 90s, but it's still entirely it's own thing and they bring in also that very psychedelic, ethereal, experimental sound to it. regarding Lil Ugly Mane, you need to listen to more of his stuff, it's all so different from each other but amazing each time. Uneven Compromise, Oblivion Access, Bedwetter, Volcanic Bird Enemy and The Voiced Concern are all projects SO worth of listening to. Again, great video Bob, and laughing at some of these tracks with you made my mood so much better, because really a lot of the songs on this project can be ridiculous lyrically. I do stand on this album being really good though and disagree with your dislike for a bit of the songs, especially Lean Got Me Fucked Up. It's one of my favorites because of how dark and creepy it is but i get how this project can throw you off putting some of these songs next to each other
always hyped when Bob covers soma that weird shit
Also definitely check out slick Rick man!
This album was everything to me and my friends in High School
Imo the bonus track Send em to the essence is essential to the experience. One of his best songs
i think it should be mentioned that travis was a black metal/harsh noise artist before this album.......
If you listen to some classic Memphis rap like 3-6 Mafia or artists like Tommy Wright III you would understand Lil Ugly Mane's music more. Literally his entire sound is inspired by that dark classic memphis rap
My favorite album ever. thanks bob😎
Excited to see this🔥would love to see more Lucki as well
THANK YOU BOB! AMAZING TAPE!
you should consider listening to his most recent album, its a complete genre switch and it actually has really meaningful lyrics that you could analyze
You gotta listen to volcanic bird enemy and the voiced concern, that album helped me during some dark spots
Twistin hook is a BG Knocc Out Sample. Great production, nice album!
twistin was produced by sgp
bob is the goat because he'll react to niche projects like this
This is, on certain days, my favorite album ever. Not a bad track, even the intro is really cool.
people know twistin but if only they new of the vocal sample on it by BG Knoccout. one of the greatest G Funk songs off all time from one of the most underrated G Funk artists of all time. real brothers is an all time classic
Damn right! And Dresta did a lot of ghost writing for Eazy E.
But this one from that Eazy tribute album. Track called ‘Dat’s how I’m living’.
BG had the best flow in gangster rap back then: He and Dresta were Eazys nr1 project on Ruthless, then BG Knocc Out went to jail. Bone Thugs took their spot and the rest is history.
Finally listening to this im glad
MTI still sticks with me as one of my favorite albums of all time, especially when you compare it to his other works. This album is truly a caricature piece of the Memphis hip-hop of his era. I don't even listen to rap much often anymore but the production and flow of a lot of this album is really special. A lot of his work varies a lot. Check of the rest of his stuff out!!!!
This guy actually used to make Black Metal songs under the name VUDMURK before he blew up as Lil Ugly Mane. He is talented at every genre.
you should definitely check out his album volcanic bird enemy at some point, very different, much more serious but a masterpiece
This video was such a deep cut. I remember listening to this album and now I need to listen to his discog again.
IVE BEEN ASKING FOR SO LONG
The beat switch at the end of radiation is epic
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO, i have never got so excited for a reaction !!!
One of the greatest albums ever produced, I mean listen to these fucking beats
This album just turned 12 and its amazing how insanely well it hold up.
By the way Bob, Shawn Kemp = Lil Ugly Mane. Shawn Kemp is his producer name, and it's just another alias (of which he has MANY). Great video!
It's so crazy what you said during Twistin cuz i did so much drunk driving to this album when i was younger 😂
NO WAY I MISSED THIS WHATTTTT
Glad to see you checking this out!
dude you should definitely check out more of this guy's stuff, one of the most versatile artists out there
Much love Bob
Agree w everyone saying Volcanic Bird Enemy. One of my all time fave albums. Also Uneven Compromise is great
In cup filla beetlejucie I think the “black checkered floor with the red velvet curtain” is a reference to Tony’s office in scar face
never saw this coming lol. awesome though, thanks bob. just clicked, but i know you loved the album.
I really hope you give his other project Oblivion Access, a try.
THANK YOU
Holy shit FINALLLY. OMG
