    Look at you being captivated and respecting the hell of Kasey!🤗 She is a massive fan of Eminem. Kasey had a super rough start being recognised by radio and media when she first started out over 20 years ago. This song means something to her.
    It needs to be on your bucket list to see her live - it is a spiritual experience. Like alot of Aussie artists, there is something special about live performances.
    She sometimes plays with another artist called, Paul Kelly - he is definetely worth checking out, too!

      It’s not just tears, it’s like an out of body experience. That’s how good it is, and that’s only in my first 24 hours of having ever seen this. I have been watching reactions since then and seen that it has blown people’s minds. I’m so glad for her and Eminem of course. Excellent lyrics.

  • @Laraine3
    @Laraine3 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +26

    To answer your question about why Kasey identifies with this song, all her life she has faced struggles, both on a personal level and also on a professional level. The titles of two of her own songs, “I Ain’t No Little Girl” and “Am I not Pretty Enough?” Illustrate her fight to be taken seriously by the music industry. Like Eminem, she’s earned recognition the hard way, without playing games, working super hard, and being a bloody genius.
    I’ve just subscribed because of your intelligent and elegant reaction to Australian music. Thank you! 🙂

    • @TheBlackSpeed

      This is the answer I was looking for and I love that. All us homegrown, hard workers can relate to a message like that. Appreciate that. And that was a very nice comment, by the way haha. I do my best! You're very welcome! :)

  • @brettbridger362
    @brettbridger362 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +56

    Good reaction. After this performance, they realised it was a 'moment'. While they had a proper recording, they didn't have video, so they put the call out for any fans who'd recorded it and mixed them into the sound track. BTW, it's a banjo and Kasey is the youngest person to ever be inducted into the Australian Hall of Fame. She's a legend here, with a dozen albums to her credit.

    • @TheBlackSpeed
      @TheBlackSpeed  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      Wait, she is? Wow. That's an incredible feat, and I appreciate the education. Had no idea. Going to have to keep up with her and get that name out there even more!

    • @brettbridger362
      @brettbridger362 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      She has that rare ability to share all her emotion with her audience If you want to hear something else from her, I'd recommend "Aint no Little Girl", probably the live recording from the Underground Bluegrass would be best.
      As with most Aussie artists, live recordings will usually be best.@@TheBlackSpeed

  • @muninraven3327
    @muninraven3327 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +18

    Oh my actual... Okay. 😮😲😵 Wow. ❤I'm old enough to have grown up with Electro and the tails of Disco and Funk and it's amorphic transition into early Hip-Hop. I have a deep love of oldschool up to around the mid' 90's. I am no hater of Eminem. His raw talent and what he has managed to achieve is incredible. Yet I don't personally enjoy his style and the sound of his cadence and delivery... even though the lyrics themselves are fire. So to hear this is really quite remarkable to me.
    I get to enjoy the lyrical beauty of Eminem, yet sung in a way that hits my ears and soul a little greater. So maybe that is it: Eminem may be a lyrical titan that has soul but is not soulful?

    • @TheBlackSpeed
      @TheBlackSpeed  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      Hmm, that's a take, for sure. I've heard plenty of people where I'm like "Man, they are an amazing songwriter, but I don't really like what I'm HEARING". So that totally makes sense. He's a total legend in his own right, but the sound may not be for everyone even if you respect the pen he has. I'm with you.

  • @Wairoakid
    @Wairoakid 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +36

    Good reaction. It seems people who like rap ( or are rappers themselves) understand this better than other reactors. They understand the poetry and emotion in the lyrics and how the rap was constructed to an emotional climax. Kasey deconstructed this and rebuilt but used some of the rap cadence ( slowed down). She also had to write the music. The anguish in the beginning of the place where Eminem found himself was made haunting by her and then when the band kicked in it reflected the anger and determination to make it reflects the rap climax. Kasey has said she has always admired Eminem and that she admires artists who leave all their emotions on the stage and she obviously does the same herself. She had time over Covid lockdowns to work on the arrangement. The audience did not know what the song was before she played it as an encore ( some recognised the lyrics at the beginning). Kudos to the band ( her father on the left playing slide guitar) as well. Thanks for the reaction.

    • @TheBlackSpeed
      @TheBlackSpeed  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

      These are the comments I like reading the most, the ones that just get it and can articulate it. That's exactly what it's about, she took his poetry (where rap easily shines the most), felt what he most likely felt in the lyrics, and made it her own without trying to make it something its not. Love you got that too.

    I loved Em’s version, but I realised I had never really FELT the song until the first time I heard her version, and now for me, this is her song. Such passion and conviction in that performance.

    • @TheBlackSpeed
      @TheBlackSpeed  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

      Haha I could never say it isn't Em's song, BUT that is the reason why I think rap is the genre of all genres. It's easily modifiable and malleable, and can be interpreted so many different ways through sounds and words. I can definitely understand that.

    • @alifc1082
      @alifc1082 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sorry but the song is great in its original... Can't be taken from Em. This is a great cover, different music same feeling. If you didn't feel it on Eminem that's on you not on him, maybe can't relate to rap, maybe cat be beyond... But she didn't put a different story, no different message, no different emotions..it was all there

    • @sputukgmail
      @sputukgmail 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +15

      @@alifc1082 the difference is, Em conveys anger as the strongest feeling. She gives me a complex mix of frustration, desperation, anger too, but there’s also a determination that feels more intense maybe because she’s a woman with all the expectations society has and she’s also having to face those. When I listen to the original, it’s like a fight song, it hypes you up ready - listening to her it’s more like a scream of pain - and she makes the journey of emotions more extreme where as Em’s emotions never go as “soft”.
      So I think you misunderstood my intent when I said she makes me /feel/ it, as I didn’t mean I feel nothing with the original, but the difference is I feel it so much more because of how she emotes a greater range of feelings and to a greater degree.

    The first time I heard this was Sat 6th Jan, live in Kiama. I had seen reactions popping up on here, but I subconsciously avoided looking, knowing I was going to see her (for the first time). As soon as it started I picked it up, first with sweaty, then confirmed with spaghetti 😅. Literal out of body experience, I was lifted and lifted, dropped and lifted again. It really felt life shifting. When she finished she took a good 30 seconds to recover, she sung the absolute crap out of it. Now I am just obsessed with re experiencing it over and over through reactions 😂😊

    Kasey wanted to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the release of Lose Yourself so she arranged this during lockdown here in Australia. Then she performed it as a final encore for her regular country music audience! Ms liked it so much he contacted his people and gave permission to put it on Spotify! I think it's the best cover I've ever seen! Great reaction Man!!

      Kasey said she has no idea if he’s heard it or not. As far as I know he doesn’t own the rights to his old music anymore.
      I see this comment everywhere but absolutely no proof other than the song is on Spotify. The same Spotify being sued by multiple artists

  • @mrswendyzarb
    @mrswendyzarb 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    She has had to work hard to stay afloat in the music industry here in Australia. Her childhood was unique and sometimes they lived in a tent in the country singing around the campfire as a family. Her marriage broke down and she has had to share parenting of her children. That cant have been easy to stick with her dreams when things got tough. I have so much respect for her and just absolutely loooove this version of lose yourself. She gave herself fully to this performance and let it touch her soul. In front of all of us. So vulnerable and powerful.

  • @klairesoper6685
    @klairesoper6685 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    This song is her story as well. She has struggled all the way through her career. Commercial radio refused to play her music, she actually wrote a song calling them out about it call ‘Not Pretty Enough’. She travels around Australia in a ute (truck) and caravan with her family and has done her entire life. Her dad is in this video, he’s sitting down playing the Steele guitar. She said once that the best advice her dad gave her as she was coming up in the industry was “just don’t be a dickhick” when you win accolades and talk to fans. They’re just really down to earth people. She is truly the most humble and kind humans in the universe.

    • @TheBlackSpeed

    The fact that he approved this version to Spotify speaks volumes about the brilliance of what and did. This was absolute 🔥 and any time you have a completely changed up cover but still recognize right away, you know it's special. Eminem is a genius for these lyrics and is you didn't pay attention to them in the original version, I bet you did in this cover. Bravo Kasey! No idea who you were before, but I am looking your music up as I type! ❤

    Crowd would have been a bit shocked at this as back in the 2000-2010 i went to maybe 10 of her concerts and if she did covers it was more likely to be covers of 1920's country like the carter family , or 1950s 60s music like hank williams snr etc

    I don't usually like phone footage or videos put together from different performances (eg official video of Cold Chisel's Bow River prefer Ringside Tour) but I think this enhances the whole thing. Love the arrangement...how gutsy for an Aussie alt-country singer to take on one of Eminem's most popular songs. She's lived the disappointment & discouragement. I also like the singer & guitarist in the second verse. It just works. And the whole band gives 110%. I'm glad it was an encore as she left everything on that stage. Loved your reaction ❤ There's heaps of absolutely amazing Aussie artists fom the 60's on. Billy Thorpe, John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes and Cold Chisel, INXS, Midnight Oil, Paul Kelly, Crowded House, LRB, Guy Sebastian & if you like a bit of wit & Sarcasm along with some amazing piano then there's Tim Minchin. Enjoy

    In my opinion ( yeah, I know opinions are like a**holes, everyone has one ), but I think most hard core rap "Purists" will not like this.......but Kasey's heart-felt, real emotion.......told from a female perspective........makes this performance stand alone.....besides, artists cover songs (1) to give props to the original and (2) to express their interpretation of what they felt from the original .........The Fairy Voice Mother said "She strums that banjo like it owes her money !"

    What an extraordinary work of art, from EMs lyrics, an amazing band, fan phone footage to Kasey's heart wrenching delivery. It all builds the drama. Rapp hasn't been as big here as in the US. We are more pop, rock and country. So EM performed this for his audience, Taylor Swift does a nice version to suit her audience, and so Kasey performed this for HER audience.

    So happy to see you react to this. It’s fantastic and slept on. She is a great writer/ musician and love great song writing. She’d been wanting to to rearrange this but it was not til Covid lockdown that she had the time.
    She played this at the end of a post Covid concert. They recorded the audio but not the visuals. So she decided to release it as a video on TH-cam- hence she went to FB and asked her fans to send in their cell phone footage. So you are hearing a live performance.

    As a muscian, any song that is worth it's weight can be interpreted in any style. I love when artists genre bend and take one thing and turn it into something of their own BUT you need a good song first which is why you won't be seeing bands cover Island Boys or mummble rap. Em has a certain cadence that gives artists freedom. There are plenty of other rap/hip-hop artists that are the same. This is a great cover.

    • @TheBlackSpeed

      Absolutely agree. When the foundation makes it easy to genre mesh and blend, and you can make it your own without losing the integrity of it, you know you made a hit. Agreed, fantastic cover.

    The best thing about real musicians covering iconic songs and making them totally different but still recognizable, is that it shows people who are siloed in one genre, that there are a million ways to express emotion. When artists like Kasey and Ren, interpret songs in new ways it can open up worlds of music which have been a mystery. Country fans listen to Kasey and learn to appreciate Em's lyrics...and rap fans can learn they there is a massive history which has led up to rap...and it will not stop at rap. Luckily music is a progression. The more and more varied influences, the better IMHO.

The word cover doesn't cover what she did, clearly truckloads of work for her to get it to that point of production. 2nd best reinterpretation I reckon is John farnhams version of the Beatles song help, live with the Melbourne symphony orchestra... highly recommend you review that!

    Hit me harder than the original. Felt like she's living this moment in her own career maybe? I think she grew up in the Australian Outback LITERALLY. Probably didn't see a television until she was 10 to 1r5 years old. All she has known is music and her genre is country you can tell, but she can definitely rock it out and could most certainly play the blues. :) Absolutely loved it! Cheers!

    Kasey has taken Eminem’s beautiful lyrics and transformed them into something transcendent. Yes, Kasey is a massive Eminem fan! They started their careers (well, solo career in Kasey’s case) at around the same time. Kasey spent lockdown reinventing her favourite songs and this was one of her absolute favourites, hence her performing it live at the first opportunity. Kasey is an Australian music legend, mostly in Country/Folk but sings whatever moves her. ❤ We love her ❤

    The reason that it’s phone footage is because while they properly recorded the vocals and I think they had one camera going (the black & white footage) it wasn’t until they listened to the playback that they realised it was such a good performance so they sent out a call out on social media the next day for crowd footage & they put that together. Kasey is a big country star in Australia but she’s a big Eminem fan and she put this together during COVID lockdowns. And someone on Eminem’s team approves of it because it’s available on Spotify which wouldn’t be possible without the rights to the music, whether that includes Eminem himself I don’t know. But Kasey’s been through a lot both professionally and personally so she’s able to relate to the song a lot, but you put together a great song and a great artist in their own genre you are bound to get a great version. Kasey is the youngest person to be in Australia’s music hall of fame, she got that at least a decade ago, and she’s 46 in this performance.
