- Listen: • HEAT - BROCKHAMPTON
On Saturation, Brockhampton jells in a way no other group their size has in quite some time. Definitely my frontrunner for hip hop project of the year at the moment.

The fact that he has FACE as his least favorite track despite saying that it is a fantastic single, shows how amazing this album is.
One of my favourites
2PAC was my least fav. Actually didnt even like it much at all :b I loved everything else though. anybody else?
DrunkenPopTart
I felt the same. I loved almost every single track but I tend to skip 2PAC
2PAC is awesome though
FACE definitely my favorite
if FACE is the least fav track, of course the album is GOLD
legit my fav track on the album
thank god this album didn't turn out to be a WASTE
TELL ME WHAT YOU WAITING FOR
Grooby_ I JUST WANNA LOVE YA
Atrijit Das everyone was a STAR. They are definitely going to make some serious BANK
Me llamo Roberto. Y esto es un melón.

is this a reference?
drbg11 watch the videos for the saturation singles. they have introductions that start with "me llamo Roberto y...."
Diandra Diamond yea just finished the album lmao

I agree. Brockhampton was what I wanted Odd Future to be in terms of overall musical quality.
Graham P dude YES.
They are basically what odd future, should have been, ALL the members are talented and not just 3.
Graham P omg dude I was thinking the exact same thing today
you can't say that about Earl though
Last name First name Whomst in odd future was talented other than Tyler and Earl??
Imagine Anthony with a sick afro
Yes! But not a regular afro; one of those rainbow-clown afros. With a bandana around the middle
Looking like Bob Ross
noahkma is that a fucking brandon wardell reference
No Life Harris he would lowkey look like Afro - gum
he should review A F R O
FACE is a 10/10 doe
Adrian Castro that means everything else is an 11.
@@jacksonelh that shouldn't be how that works...but hey that works too.
TELL ME WHATCHA WAITIN FOR!!!
I just wanna love you...
He said it’s excellent at the beginning. Even the worst track would be most’s best.
ameer vann really shines on this project
Cal His verses were some of my favorite, especially his on Face, might be my fav on the whole album
Cal
I've only heard him and his music in the past couple of weeks and he's ready one of my favorite voices in hip-hop. Every Brockhampton member is talented but there is something special about Ameer.
Cal him and merlyn were gold on this
Still need to give Saturation a listen, but I discovered High Tolerance through Spotify and it's easily one of the best songs I've found this year. Looking forward to hearing him on this project.
Cal Ameer and Matt are fucking fire in this album. And Kevin, obvs.

This will be a massive boost to their fanbase.
The good old Fantano bump
Especially after *cough cough* DAMN AND HUMANZ *cough cough*
Jaimie Knox bump bump in my trunk
JordR this review made me listen to saturation nd I am now a brockhampton fan boy
Adam Kocur that's a good joke
You know the albums great when face is the least favorite track
and when for his favorite tracks there are like fucking 7 of them xD
lol jk it's literally more than half the project xD
Face is my favorite
His favs are the whole tracklist except face and waste
Simon Nitsch Waste is really good when you're sad
They deserve a Grammy for this. It's unfortunate they won't just on exposure levels alone
They should have turned the exposure up instead of the saturation.
@@mandaloriancrusader3746 underrated comment
@@mandaloriancrusader3746 I love you
They made this album in 3 weeks think bout that for a second...
Sunny D beat production until post-pro? that's amazing to know
Damn, they work fast. I guess that explains how Saturation II already came out.
Xavier and saturation 3 within 2 Months from now yeeee
Lies no way this only took three weeks.
what am I supposed to be thinkin

Brockhampton > Migos
IanReyes98 easliy!
that’s not a hot take that’s a statement of a fact
Irrelevant
404 what
Brockhampton > Death Grips
"mixtape" "experimental hip hop" "9/10"
is this death grips?
NDR3 If you only heard the instrumental for the first track, I think it would be reasonable to think that's a grips song
Nah these guys are actually listenable and good
NDR3 it is sort of on the experimental side but not to the degree death grips is at all. It's a lot like Injury Reserve, if you liked this project listen to Floss by Injury Reserve
Even if you didn't like Saturation check out Injury Reserve. Floss is extremely underrated.
Bruh Wow. My inner white boy is ready to fist your fucking face.
CUM was a kinda weird track that didn’t really fit in the flow of the album but other than that Pretty Cool!

Album was ahead of it’s time. Literally, he’s wearing a face mask.
I HAVE BEEN TELLING MY FRIENDS ABOUT THIS ALBUM ALL FUCKING WEEK. I AM SO GLAD YOU REVIEWED THIS
Lil Cutthroat Facts ,but niggas hear "I just gave my nigga head" and say it's to "gay". Some people are just 1 dimensional 😔
Lil Cutthroat how dare you make an actual comment relating to the contents of the video.
i searched "melon saturation" and the algorithm knew what i meant. wow.
Blacklabby I do that with any fantano review and it always works
Upload a video of you eating beef
oh shit this is something I could get behind
there's a video of him eating the impossible burger.
oh shit it's Hentai Girl.
N M ASMR having ass
1000th like
MILK had me crying bro. Hit too close
ThisisGabeB. Milk is definitely one of their most underrated songs and i cry too when i hear it
4 years later, MILK still hits.
At this point Anthony might as well change all the scores over 9 to a FLANNEL/10
yellow flannel*/10
madinsomaniac thank you I nearly had a seizure
Well........
"I feel like I'm listening to an OddFuture for people who went to college" - Fantano
I still quote this to this day.
I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY, IM JUST HAPPY. THANK YOU FANTANO
Yea but, A FUCKING 9, I hope this means that Brockhampton can blow up cause of this, they really deserve it
Yeah ditto for me Fantano! This is the first time since i started following TND where i had the album, i had my opinion then the review dropped it matched up almost perfect w my take. Not that i need it to happen for me to dig the content, but when it does?? DAMN(.) it feels good! Ha
+Cramer True but Antoine def has influence now. Even if he puts "Its just my opinion, rt?" disclaimer in the description, it doesnt change the fact that he can affect sales/opinion to varying degrees in less mainstream genres (Ex: underground rap/hip hop, experimental, indie, metal genres etc) of for smaller artists. Imo its time for Fantano to drop the disclaimer entirely. Its his opinion, true, but its no longer *just* his opinion.
whether the band grows or not doesn't rely on Anthony Fantano lol people should remember it's just his opinion, it really doesn't mean anything.
Jack .F Woah
Brockhampton is odd future went to college
Lol
and if the members werent edgy teenagers
great review and imma let you finish but this shit was a 10/10
Kanye on another power trip again
For those wondering, the performers in Brockhampton are: Kevin Abstract (dude w/ french fry hair and headband), Ameer Vann (bald black dude), Merlyn Wood (eccentric blonde black dude), Matt Champion (cute white rapper), Joba (long haired dude with beautiful falsettos), Dom McLennon (husky black dude) and Bearface (tbh idk what he looks like but he only appears on Waste),
Michael Lopez You forgot to mention Roberto the goat!
Fachy Marin Just mentioning the performers! There's a ton of others I didn't mention - Jabari, Romil, etc.
I think he from Scotland.
inaureoled he's irish
Michael Lopez For Later
how does it feel to have your comment section be purely memes
brownguy903 probably feels brought to a head by his meme channel
That's all of his comment sections
You're acting like this doesn't happen on every other channel.
Im feeling a light to decent 7 on it
Someone needs to start a gofundme to get melon a central air conditioning unit.
a cacu?
@@sebp400 yes. a cacu.
F L A N N E L B O I S
F L A N N E L B O I S S A Y F L A N N E L B O I S
The odd future influence is most likely because Tyler is one of Kevin's favourite rappers
logic is half black and half white and kevin abstract is gay
Michael AK who gives a fuck?
Ron Wales I believe the OP is a parody of people who may mention these factors to be derogatory; making fun of them by stating these 'problems' in such a matter of fact way
Ameer sells drugs
ok
LEAST FAV TRACK: FACE
no
hes not wrong
Its his least favorite but it still slaps
Trip
Tell me what you're waiting for!... I just wanna hold you ...
Yellow Flannel on my neck fly as a jet boy better treat melon with respect

Wear more tank tops, Melon. I love seeing your pale complexion
complexion don't mean a thang

William Doyle I love the comment section so much lmao
Damn. Brockhampton beats out Kung-fu Kenny for best hip-hop of the year? Shit just got real.
davidwave4 I liked Joey and Tylers shit better
how dare u

I see what you did there haha

Saved my life 🙏🙏🙏
bruckhampton is my favrit rapper on the internets this year. i like the sangs. i like the voices. i like the beets. i like the gitars. i like the everything. so good. good ravyoo anthony
yup
Coming back to this following The Family and TM’s release is bittersweet. No matter how good something seems, it could end in just a few days, months, or for BH years. Take time to appreciate memories as they’re being created!
It's ironic that you're hiding your face in the beginning of this review, and your least favorite track is Face.
You r a Really reaching lol
who else is here after he gave the albums a 3 and 4/10
So undeserved
@@Alex_Nason Not super undeserved tbh. If Saturation is a 9 then I myself don't see TM being any higher than a 5. Not a 3, sure, but not much higher than that. Partly because literally all of their discography is so good, anything even slightly below par will stick out like a sore thumb.
@@D3VM well I really enjoyed it, even if I disagree with the idea of it being just Kevin
These were truly the good ole days
This video came out on my birthday 5 years ago, thank you anthony! Really enjoyed this revisit to your review. It's a shame this was your last video, rest in peace
I'm glad he lured me in with the yellow flannel cause this is the hardest shit i've ever heard
THEY RELEASED AOTY TWICE

You can argue that this review singlehandedly skyrocketed Brockhampton
here after TF and TM reviews 😢😢
HOW IS WASTE NOT A LIKED SONG, that’s one of the best closers of the decade, up there with To Be Kind and Guest House
He also said Face was his least fave but said it was a fantastic single
Summer and Team are better tbh
@@obaso.waste is my favourite of the 3 tbf but all 3 are fucking perfect
When and where did it all go wrong…
:(
Are they that bad now? I've only listened to a couple of their new singles & I didn't really like em. I don't think anything will be better than this album
They never recovered from the loss of Ameer, not because of what he added to the sound, but due to the emotional toll of one of their integral members and best friends betraying their trust
@@bojiden9830they fell off after Saturation III and never recovered
@@dimwitted-foolI think they fell off after Roadrunner. The 3 albums that followed Saturation III were still enjoyable.
wow i need to make sure to give this a listen! you're always give projects such low numbers which makes a 9 seem even better
Face is my favourite on the album - shows what a standout album this is Brocktano has this as his least favourite track.
SATURATION > DAMN.
enzo box love Kendrick, but this isn’t an argument
Yeah damn is his weakest album for me but i still love it
SATURATION TRILOGY> All.
Wow i mean it's Kendrick and all but this is true
To be honest tho...i can listen to saturation end to end, cant do that with damn
Thanks so much for doing what you do. You've gotten me into these guys and so much more. I love this record.
I also like Animals by Pink Floyd
Jesus melon, I'm in the middle of NoFap. Put your shirt back on
Melon....MF DOOM bets to worst....W H E N
datboicesar Madvillainy #1
One of the best hip hop projects this year. "I break your neck so you can watch your back!!!"
Light Album of the Year to Decent Classic/10
He didn't even mention trip. And Noisy Images dissed on Trip. Trip is my favorite damn track.
Ben Bilhorn It’s one of his favourites
I got secrets only me and all my melons know
This was the first Hip Hop/Rap album I ever really connected with back in Winter 2017 and I checked it out because of this review. I remember working at shoe store for shit wage, age 24, cleaning the staff bathroom, listening to this for the first time because Anthony sounded so ecstatic about the album. I was nearly moved to tears when WASTE finished. I listened to the album a second time immediately. The BOOGIE video dropped like a week later and the rest is history.
hope you're doing better now. This album sure has aged really well.
@@elmo4672 Thanks pal. I'm going to be 31 soon and I'm working for a software company now, things have changed haha, and yes the Saturation trilogy is still solid gold no pun intended. Especially the Bearface tracks imo
Man the way anthony describes heat just gets me PUMPED
Good times
You loved it because he is also a melon, don't lie to us.
How many 9s do we have this year already, and it's not even halfway through the year! Is Anthony letting loose this year?
Neel 2000
Loose melon
9/10 got a DAMN. but 7/10 got a Saturation? fakin melon hed
XylaN Damn is overrated
Purpdogg指指 you missed the whole point of the comment
why u put 9/10 in description if u give this a 2?
ezwar99 ok yes new meme
i prefer this type of comment to the "real melons hit the skiptony adthano and dip ahaha melon u gave this a 7 but haha edgy a 666"
Thomas Turbando tbm estou
Damn, this will probably go unnoticed but I'm just curious, Fantano, what is holding this album back from a ten? Why isn't it good enough?
bless.
That's what I thought especially since he had Face as his least fav even though that was on best tracks of the week when it was a single.
Not super conceptual
melon did point out how this album lacked any one single direction to sort of really tie the album together, at least conceptually although every track never missed a beat
Tha Swami by putting that track as his least favorite track he isn't saying that it is a bad track by any means. He does love the track but he is just saying compared to the other tracks in this album it was the least best
DunkeyIsHunky Lol, that's literally what I meant by mentioning it dude. 😂
What i’d do to go back in time man…
my name is Hampton :)
Hampton Rogers :)

Hampton Rogers :)
Hampton Rogers AND IN'ER HAMPTON MOUTH
This band is a miracle for guys like us lol
waiting for them to become huge
You know that the world is making a big change when wikipedia shows you the score of theneedledrop on review scores
Completely pointless comment that has absoutely no relevance to anything, just words on a screen.
Tory Brains alright
Tory Brains nah
BUMP BUMP IN MY TRUNK!
I remember when these guys were still small and I went to the topic video for bump with only twenty comments. One guy just said “?” Lol
the beginning of something amazing
FUCK YEAH BOY!!!!! FUCKING 9/10!!!! SHIT YEAH!!!!!!!! MY TASTE IS PASSABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I CONTROL WHAT YOU LIKE
That one shitposter that lives in your fridge YOUR FAVORITE UKULELE PLAYER??? GARBAGE!!!!!!!!
This review is absolutely ON-POINT. And dude, your fluency and inventive articulation makes a review like this RE-WATCH-WORTHY and then some. You are the doyen of music reviews; no fucker comes close. Love you, Forever, brother. John.

cameron lmaooo you’re right
Looking back, most important music review of my life. Thank you Anthony
that moment when you accidentally spit "i just gave my nigga head" while singing "star" 😫😫
DihStyle69 "accidentally"
Gray Neptune """acidentally"""
I say that that shit everytime I listen to the song it's a dope a line
if u have a problem saying that line stop listening to brckhmptn
recluse u gay bro
man this is why i love your reviews putting me onto great music i otherwise wouldnt have known about. thanks melon!
But Needledrop, he fuck with me
Gave them a listen with you put em in a best of the week vid and I've been listening to them a ton ever since. Saturation is amongst the best albums this year so far in my book and I'm very happy you hyped them earlier.
Waste is a perfect ender
THIS IS THE BEST REVIEW YOU'VE DONE THIS YEAR MELON!! I LOVE YOU
Remember when you said "Is Kevin Abstract trying to be Frank Ocean?"
He said that in response to the empty video, Anthony already knew about Kevin prior to that and liked some of his music.
When did he say that?
honestly love how positive u are even when u dont absolutely LOVE the album not a lot of ppl are like that so thank you for that.
He does love this album tho
i found kevin back in the late summer, and later found brockhampton. ive been excited for this album since they dropped the first single. This is probably my favourite hip hop album. I listen to this shit daily.
please don't forget this album for ur end of year favourites!! i listened to this due to ur recommendation and I love brockhamptons work!!!
You said you liked brockhampton but then couldn't even stick it out and wear the flannel. More like least dedicated melon of the year 🍈
It’s so nice coming back to this review and seeing how amazing the boys are even 2 years ago
Album cover looks like yondu
Yondu made me cry manly tears, he's a real nigga for that, rip yondu
Great review fam, would never have known about this amazing project if it werent for you and shawn cee.
I’m still mad he said FACE was his least favorite.
But did he say the song was bad..
Nice review: best lyrics: the shawn mendes mention
