Pops has spoken......we need Lil Wayne. Please start from The Block is Hot and bring him along so he can see the growth from lamb to Goat🦾 Also just wanna stay....i grew up without a dad. Do not take this for granted. I've cried for a bond like this on numerous occasions. Watching these vids help me cope with my past. Thank u both. Looking forward to ALL new vids 💙
I’m a big fan of Kanye, but no offense that’s a dumb comparison because music is always changing, yes his early albums were very ahead of their time but it like wouldn’t fit with the theme of rap today
I think Kanye fans think it’s “basic” to think this is one of his greatest albums but song for song this is easily top 3 if not higher for me. So dope and timeless, a real classic!
All his albums bang for me a different way. Like I can't sit here and say oh x album by him is the best cause it's all mood. Whatever I'm in at the moment is my heat even JIK. Used to be Graduation no contest back when it was out and for years after but I constantly go back and forth between Yeezus, TLOP, CD, LR, KSG as far as favorite. MBDTF is good but like he said it was an apology album so that in consideration isn't a top 5 for me from his work cause it wasn't really something He himself wanted to try to break ground with.
@@09222P In my opinion the fact that it was only meant to be an apology album and still had some of the best production ever seen shows how good Kanye is as an artist. I would say MBDTF probably comes fourth for me
@@jamesfred0780i think LR is his best but MBDTF feels like a perfect album, especially since it was a comeback album with his personal family issues and career at risk and he comes out on top with majorities opinion his best album 💯
@@JohnnySensei7 I’d say it was more trap rap than gangsta but I love it all. It’s just ironic because when dropout came out that style of music was not what was selling, then by graduation Kanye changed all of that.

you seem like a real humble guy, i can tell you get it from your dad - good wholesome energy no cocky or arrogant vibes, don’t change brother, don’t compromise yourself or be something you’re not stay true, love yourself always, i know you know all that already because i can tell you’re not looking for validation from anyones eyes, that’s the spirit
kanye's discography is so cool to me. i think college dropout and late registration really have that early 2000s late 90s appeal. then graduation sort of leaves that behind for a more poppy sound. then we go into mbdtf which is completely different. such a great evolution
THE KANYE JOURNEY CONTINUES! Big fan of the channel, keep it up guys. I like where this channel is headed, you guys get better with reacting and the commentary each vid. LETS GOOOOOOOO
@bridgingthegap the next album you guys should review is 808s and heartbreak by Kanye West. that's the next album after graduation, my favorite songs off that album are heartless, love lockdown, amazing, welcome to heartbreak ft kid Cudi. the production on that album sounds great. it's different than his first 3 albums . he used auto tune at this time around 2008 , he sang on 808s and heartbreak more than he rapped . it sounded way different than his first 3 albums . And congrats on 20k. my favorite channel that does album reviews.
@bridgingthegap can you guys also do the massacre by 50 cent . his 22nd anniversary just passed last month and this album sold over 1.15 million copies and it went diamond too . my favorite songs are candy shop ft Olivia, outta control remix ft mobb deep and the original, just a lil bit, position of power, I'm supposed to die tonight, this is 50, a Baltimore love thing, Ryder music, get in my car, ski mask way , gunz come out, my toy soldier, so amazing ft Olivia, I don't need em, hate it or love it ft the game , g unit remix , God gave me style. this is a classic album .
I love that your dad was likely recognizing the Chairmen of the Board - Bittersweet interpolation in the Bittersweet Poetry hook at 1:15:07, that's why he smiled so hard. It must've been a trip hearing that in that context
Just wanted to tell y'all that this father son dynamic is amazing, so easy going and cheerful. I love watching these videos I hope y'all blow up soon and can't wait for you to cover some more of my favorite albums!
@@BridgingTheGapYT I'm liking the system you got going on already and tbh whatever it is I'll probably end up watching. If pops wants to hear Eminem let him hear Eminem lmao. But saying that I feel like a TPAB reaction soon would be good both for the views and since it's been a little while since the good kid maad city listen
I love your dad’s take on Drunk & Hot Girls 😂 I swear you could literally get “I’m a Little Teapot” nominated for a Grammy if you got Kanye to do the production and added an 8-bar bridge of melodic poetry from Mos Def.
This album came out my junior year in HS and I’ve been listening to this album almost every day since it came out. There isn’t a single bad track on this album. Every song is unique and a masterpiece in its own way. I appreciate you and your father for allowing us to join you on this once in a lifetime journey that is “the Graduation”.. big fan from Minnesota and I’ve been loving ur content since I found it…
Bittersweet Poetry is my favorite Kanye song, and seeing your dads reaction was amazing. You should show him Mama’s boyfriend too. Great video, I love this album!
Bittersweet Poetry is probably Ye’s most slept on song. It’s top 3 for me personally. I wish it would get released on streaming, John mayers chorus and the melody in the beat are just too perfect
This is by far my favourite Kanye album ever. The whole thing just feels like a cool summer evening when you just chilling with your friends high. Shit is so good bruhh
Flashing lights lights lights! Man you can tell when he made that song especially for fashion runway. Can't wait till you guys review Watch the throne with Jay Z. 808 heartbreak was good too. He was in his bag with My beautiful dark twisted fantasy. Kanye probably has the most diverse catalog in Hip hop.
This album will always instantly put a smile on my face. The amount of good vibes, and timelessness that this album possesses bro. Truly an amazing album and will be beloved for many more decades to come. Great reaction bro!
18:55 most impactful moment maybe Ive seen on this channel. The look your father gives you after the line about getting married and having kids.. Amazing man, actually brought a tear to my eye.
Bro the look on your face when some of those best moments hit, that’s exactly how Kanye makes me feel. It nearly brings tears to my eye how brilliant his work is, definitely the most meaningful artist for me outside of The Beatles. Those two are my main inspirations
I can still remember buying this the day it came out. I Wonder instantly became one of my favorites. Like you said that sample and the music is so beautiful.
Thank God this wasn't an april fools joke man 😂😂 i had just watched the last Kanye reaction Yesterday!!! Excited about this one you and your dad are amazing, much love from italy

damn homie, that's one tight list. A whole lotta underground classics that don't get talked about a lot. But if you just drop 50 albums on 'em i dont think they gon listen
C'mon, how we not gonna add J Dilla's album Donuts? J Dilla as an artist inspired majority, if not this whole list of artist. Would love to y'all do a reacts.
Im from the UK and i have this album on CD and ive never heard bittersweet poetry and i had no idea good night was a international exclusive. I wonder why kanye chose to do that. Love this album so much.
Loved the reaction to 'Everything I Am' too, thats also my favorite song on the album and one of Kanye's overall...the simplicity and just heartfelt nature of it is amazing.
I really enjoyed this reaction. I listen to this album a lot in the mornings, just like I did when it came out. It really gets my day going in body, mind and spirit. Loved how dad got smirks in at some of the lines I still find the most clever. This will always be my favorite era of Kanye. Subscribed!
I’ve been waiting for your dad to hear Champion for the first time for a minute and his reaction was everything I expected and more. Much love to you brothas and congrats on 20K!!!
These Kanye vids are GOLD!! Can't wait to see y'all work through the rest of his discography. You two have such an awesome dynamic that makes these vids contagious. Keep killing it 💯
Didn’t expect to discover a new song on here with Bittersweet Poetry 14 years later! That mustve not been on the UK version but definitely know Good Night! Also loving the channel!
Graduation for me is Kanyes best album just because of the sentimental value it has to me. It has so many great songs and I was wondering what ur guys is favorite songs were off the album? Great video by the way!
the fact that i have a clear memory of listening to good life in the back of my parents car while eating ice cream (when I was 6), and i still listen to this song is just crazy to me.
Graduation is my fave Ye album by a landslide. Was in high school when this album came out. Listened to it a ton back then and been listening to it a ton nowadays. Nostalgia is one hell of a drug and I love it. Forever Music no doubt with this one. Flashing Lights is my fave song on this album. The strings and the synths make this song! 💙💪🏼
If you didn't know, T-pain won the first season of the masked singer, and that same season Gladys Knight came in 3rd. It sold the concept for me because I think bias would have prevented him from winning because of the auto tune reputation, but he can sing for real.
Saw him live Glow in the Dark tour. Man it so good, it was a story/journey. One of the best live performers ever. No wild talk about his fashion stuff or whatever just music.
Y'all are really rocking these reactions! Great Job! I am loving it and can't wait to hear y'all react to more, whichever direction y'all go in. So for reference, both Bittersweet & Goodnight were bonus tracks. The regular album ends with Big Brother. 808s & Heartbreak is the next album. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is his 5th Album.
As Dad wants more Weezy F Baby, Carter I, II, III would be awesome! Fun watching Dad react to the college albums, by the way. They’re a part of the soundtrack of my youth for sure! I’m looking forward to seeing Dad’s innocent and naive(?) view of Kanye get more complicated as you’ll go deeper into his discography.
“I’m gonna demand my respect from you” that’s a good analysis, it makes me wonder (after watching his documentary) if being told he would never be an artist affected him more than we thought
Absolutely did. Last Call is the embodiment of that. Same with the full MTV You Heard It First. He say "I've always been a glass half full person, people gonna tell me I can't do something, I'm gonna flip it to a positive"
This really one of my favorite channels man, love seeing your pops so surprised by some of the stuff he hears. Can't wait til yall get to MBDTF !!! His minds about to be blown. I really hope y'all get to it.
Pops singing along was so relatable for me because I first heard this song in the car where the instrumentals shined so amazingly and it was like magic. I just wanted to sing along.
I remember getting this album and played it in the car with my dad and he was nodding his head the whole time his favorite songs “good morning”, “cant tell me nothing”, “stronger”and “good life” he said the way how he flipped Michael Jackson was amazing
Love the video, idk if you know Black on Both sides by Mos Def but Kanye pulls a ton of influence from that album. I’m sure it would make a great video, amazing content thank you.
To me, it starts at 16:34 . Your welcome. One of my favorite songs of Kanye. Using samples from the OG. 😁 Awesome. Thank you Bridging The Gap for this.
I love these father and son reaction videos ❤️ I remember when I was a kid and my mama picked me up from school. We were in the car and she introduced me to The College Dropout. She was like “this is Kanye West and he sampled your Grandmas favorite song on this cd”. That was my first time ever hearing Kanye
WOW! Your pops really is digging on this jawn, less than halfway through and I can tell this gon’ be one of his favorites for sure. Keep em’ coming!! I think your pops would really enjoy meek mill!
Bittersweet Poetry wasn’t about Amber Rose. He had that rap before College Dropout even. He was with Alexis Phifer during this album, and split with her, which is part of the reason for 808s, along with the angel Donda West.
your dad just like going wit the flow makes me happy like him just smiling laughing its so heartwarming. and graduation is one of the heat and vibe albums ever
Great album, great reaction. Thanks for sharing your opinions with us. It’s definitely cool you and your dad can do something together like this that you both enjoy and get along. I think it’s awesome you have that special bond together. You’re lucky to have a cool dad you’re close to like that. Also side note, Stronger was my MySpace profile song for quite awhile way back in the day, so everytime someone would hear it they’d say that it would make them think of me lol. My sister and I are really close and we would listen to this album in the car and just jam out to it. She loved Good Life with T-Pain. An of course I like Good life too which is such a hit, I mean come on it’s genius T-Pain who is such a good songwriter and changed the game up bringing in a whole new sound and era of music, but it was my sisters absolute favorite on the album. This whole album is just so well done. It’s hard for me to pick a favorite because these beats are all so damn good! I have good memories associated with this album. Thanks for the nostalgia!
50 Cent was my favorite rapper growing up and I thought he was gonna wash Kanye in their battle but man Graduation blew my mind. Graduation made me go from a Ye fan to a Ye stan. This album changed Hip Hop and is my favorite album of all time
Lovin this series so far, making my day with each video! Would love to see y'all do J.Cole next, maybe "Friday Night Lights" and/or "Forest Hills Drive? Sideline story fire too ofc
I love what you guys are talking about after “glory”. Kanye does so much with his music that on this album he basically didn’t make a bad song. He had so many aspects and layers to each song that on every song at least one of these things (lyrics, instrumentation, production, and delivery) is good on each song so there’s something to like about every single one it’s wild. Most of them do all four well. Top shelf content.
Stumbled across this channel a month ago and been watching a lot lately . You and your Pops are dope man . I love how y’all are bonding over hip hop . God bless y’all 🙏💯

Nah that's real. As soon as I Wonder comes on I just get transported to another dimension bruh. Classic album without a doubt
Crazy how this came out in 2007. If it came out today it would easily be one of the best albums to come out
I started listening to rap last year and when I heard I Wonder all over youtube I thought it was a new song.
I’m a big fan of Kanye, but no offense that’s a dumb comparison because music is always changing, yes his early albums were very ahead of their time but it like wouldn’t fit with the theme of rap today

Used to be Graduation no contest back when it was out and for years after but I constantly go back and forth between Yeezus, TLOP, CD, LR, KSG as far as favorite.

Usually sample clearance in the US is harder
2 years late but good night isnt a international exclusive
The way your dad connected the song "can't tell me nothing" with the come up of kanye is great. What an amazing observation
Loved the reaction to 'Everything I Am' too, thats also my favorite song on the album and one of Kanye's overall...the simplicity and just heartfelt nature of it is amazing.
Homecoming is pretty underrated imo. The metaphor is crazy. The twist in the end is like: wow, he was talking about Chicago all along?
I really enjoyed this reaction. I listen to this album a lot in the mornings, just like I did when it came out. It really gets my day going in body, mind and spirit. Loved how dad got smirks in at some of the lines I still find the most clever. This will always be my favorite era of Kanye. Subscribed!
I’ve been waiting for your dad to hear Champion for the first time for a minute and his reaction was everything I expected and more. Much love to you brothas and congrats on 20K!!!
Love the fact he enjoyed everything I am. Truly one of the best and deepest Kanye songs.
These Kanye vids are GOLD!! Can't wait to see y'all work through the rest of his discography. You two have such an awesome dynamic that makes these vids contagious. Keep killing it 💯
Didn’t expect to discover a new song on here with Bittersweet Poetry 14 years later! That mustve not been on the UK version but definitely know Good Night! Also loving the channel!
I always come back to these kanye albums when in a bad mood, they are so enjoyable and relaxing
i've never heard Bittersweet poetry, first time listening to it and i got a tear in my eye. Damn that song is beautiful.
He also performed it on def poetry jam.. it was recorded before college dropout
@@TmaineyOnDaBeatz kinda curious that the song said
"Hennessey is gonna be the death for me" literally what he drank before the taylor swift incident
Keep going with the Kanye records!! Would be super interesting to hear your dad's thoughts. Especially 808s
If you continue like this, this channel will blow up
Congrats on the 20k
Kanye is a genius no producers could touch him
What does that have to do with being a producer? Snowflakes are so annoying
Graduation for me is Kanyes best album just because of the sentimental value it has to me. It has so many great songs and I was wondering what ur guys is favorite songs were off the album? Great video by the way!
the fact that i have a clear memory of listening to good life in the back of my parents car while eating ice cream (when I was 6), and i still listen to this song is just crazy to me.
Graduation is my fave Ye album by a landslide. Was in high school when this album came out. Listened to it a ton back then and been listening to it a ton nowadays. Nostalgia is one hell of a drug and I love it. Forever Music no doubt with this one. Flashing Lights is my fave song on this album. The strings and the synths make this song! 💙💪🏼
If you didn't know, T-pain won the first season of the masked singer, and that same season Gladys Knight came in 3rd. It sold the concept for me because I think bias would have prevented him from winning because of the auto tune reputation, but he can sing for real.
Love this reaction so much! I haven’t listened to this album in a long time. It was fun to re-visit. So much joy exuding from Senior, every time.
16 years today!! Classic album
Ayy y’all reacted to bittersweet poetry?! You are dope as hell for that Rod! Nobody ever talks about the bonus tracks
Saw him live Glow in the Dark tour. Man it so good, it was a story/journey. One of the best live performers ever. No wild talk about his fashion stuff or whatever just music.
Y'all are really rocking these reactions! Great Job! I am loving it and can't wait to hear y'all react to more, whichever direction y'all go in.
So for reference, both Bittersweet & Goodnight were bonus tracks. The regular album ends with Big Brother. 808s & Heartbreak is the next album. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is his 5th Album.
As Dad wants more Weezy F Baby, Carter I, II, III would be awesome! Fun watching Dad react to the college albums, by the way. They’re a part of the soundtrack of my youth for sure! I’m looking forward to seeing Dad’s innocent and naive(?) view of Kanye get more complicated as you’ll go deeper into his discography.
W comment
Heck yes! Carter II, Carter III or No Ceilings! That would be dope!
@@gerardorojas6322 No ceilings would be sooooo sick!
@@stevenbrown508 no ceilings has to happen
@@BridgingTheGapYT YES THA CARTER SERIES 1-3 AND DA DROUGHT 3, DEDICATION 2 + 3
“I’m gonna demand my respect from you” that’s a good analysis, it makes me wonder (after watching his documentary) if being told he would never be an artist affected him more than we thought
Absolutely did. Last Call is the embodiment of that. Same with the full MTV You Heard It First. He say "I've always been a glass half full person, people gonna tell me I can't do something, I'm gonna flip it to a positive"
LETS GET IT 🔥🔥🔥
Words cannot express how thankful I am you included Bittersweet and Good Night, many never even know abt those songs 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🐻
This really one of my favorite channels man, love seeing your pops so surprised by some of the stuff he hears. Can't wait til yall get to MBDTF !!! His minds about to be blown. I really hope y'all get to it.
Top 1 album for me. The atmosphere, music, and lyrics are perfect. Every track is a banger. Love it
Pops singing along was so relatable for me because I first heard this song in the car where the instrumentals shined so amazingly and it was like magic. I just wanted to sing along.
i remember Kanye 4th album was supposed to be called ''good ass job'' to end this series but he ended up putting out 808's and heartbreak.
the "bittersweet poetry" reaction is so cute to me, your dad is just smiling and vibing to the song 😭❤
I remember getting this album and played it in the car with my dad and he was nodding his head the whole time his favorite songs “good morning”, “cant tell me nothing”, “stronger”and “good life” he said the way how he flipped Michael Jackson was amazing
Man all of the beats on this album are straight 🔥🔥🔥
Kanye spitting bars over them just makes it that much better
Love the video, idk if you know Black on Both sides by Mos Def but Kanye pulls a ton of influence from that album. I’m sure it would make a great video, amazing content thank you.
Thanks Hen dawg! 🔥
^^^^THIS!!!!
When your pop drops a calmly "wow" you know he is vibing. Great vid, Ye is the goat
love yalls channel.. takes me back to the first time I heard these albums
Your relationship with your father is very cute, keep it up man
Graduation is my favourite Kanye West record🔥...We need an Aquemini reaction soon🙏
My personal favorite Kanye album, and The Glory is my personal favorite Kanye song. Great reaction guys!🤟🏾
dad a W for liking Drunk and Hot Girls
Amazing video man keep up the good work I wish I can show my dad this music if he understood English 100%
To me, it starts at 16:34 . Your welcome. One of my favorite songs of Kanye. Using samples from the OG. 😁 Awesome. Thank you Bridging The Gap for this.
Yall are Gold man. Much needed for the culture 👑✈💪🏾
Mad respect for including Bittersweet
W reaction!!! Graduation was my fav as well . Can’t wait for you guys to get into 808s and Heartbreak because that’s my fav Kanye album all time
I love these father and son reaction videos ❤️ I remember when I was a kid and my mama picked me up from school. We were in the car and she introduced me to The College Dropout. She was like “this is Kanye West and he sampled your Grandmas favorite song on this cd”. That was my first time ever hearing Kanye
hella dope bro. i can only imagine that feeling
I was so happy to see bittersweet poetry on this reaction
WOW! Your pops really is digging on this jawn, less than halfway through and I can tell this gon’ be one of his favorites for sure. Keep em’ coming!! I think your pops would really enjoy meek mill!
Hey it’s so cool that you added bittersweet poetry and goodnight! Those are great and most people don’t know about them
Bittersweet Poetry wasn’t about Amber Rose. He had that rap before College Dropout even. He was with Alexis Phifer during this album, and split with her, which is part of the reason for 808s, along with the angel Donda West.
your dad just like going wit the flow makes me happy like him just smiling laughing its so heartwarming. and graduation is one of the heat and vibe albums ever
Great album, great reaction. Thanks for sharing your opinions with us. It’s definitely cool you and your dad can do something together like this that you both enjoy and get along. I think it’s awesome you have that special bond together. You’re lucky to have a cool dad you’re close to like that. Also side note, Stronger was my MySpace profile song for quite awhile way back in the day, so everytime someone would hear it they’d say that it would make them think of me lol. My sister and I are really close and we would listen to this album in the car and just jam out to it. She loved Good Life with T-Pain. An of course I like Good life too which is such a hit, I mean come on it’s genius T-Pain who is such a good songwriter and changed the game up bringing in a whole new sound and era of music, but it was my sisters absolute favorite on the album. This whole album is just so well done. It’s hard for me to pick a favorite because these beats are all so damn good! I have good memories associated with this album. Thanks for the nostalgia!
Found y’all yesterday, taking a break from work and been enjoy y’all videos. New subscribers. Much love to you and your dad.
50 Cent was my favorite rapper growing up and I thought he was gonna wash Kanye in their battle but man Graduation blew my mind. Graduation made me go from a Ye fan to a Ye stan. This album changed Hip Hop and is my favorite album of all time
🔥🔥🔥
I like Curtis but i pick this over Curtis
The relationship you have with your dad is inspirational man
Lovin this series so far, making my day with each video! Would love to see y'all do J.Cole next, maybe "Friday Night Lights" and/or "Forest Hills Drive? Sideline story fire too ofc
I watch alotta reaction videos but this is the first and only channel I'm subscribed to. McNasty approved.
I love what you guys are talking about after “glory”. Kanye does so much with his music that on this album he basically didn’t make a bad song. He had so many aspects and layers to each song that on every song at least one of these things (lyrics, instrumentation, production, and delivery) is good on each song so there’s something to like about every single one it’s wild. Most of them do all four well. Top shelf content.
Stumbled across this channel a month ago and been watching a lot lately . You and your Pops are dope man . I love how y’all are bonding over hip hop . God bless y’all 🙏💯
Man, this is so good. Any plans on doing Mos Def - Black on Both Sides?
Man watching you guys makes me feel like I’m there. It’s always fun vibes. Bless you both 🙏
I wonder is so special, 10/10 record.
following you for a long now and i am so amazed that every album you are doing is in my top 20 except the black album damn
