To ANYONE who is saying Rage was “ahead of their time”, I haven’t seen anyone here say that yet, they weren’t. The sad truth is we’re DECADES behind Rage.
That literally means they were ahead of their time. Stop trying to sound deep.
@@herbie747 Except they weren’t. They were talking about shit that was happening in their time. It only seems like they’re talking about recent events because NOTHING has changed.
@@HistorysRaven I never said they were talking about recent events. Why did you imply I did?
Miles Davis: "Nobody is ahead of their times. But... A lot of people are lagging behind." ;)
Police brutality and white Supremacy predate Rage Against the Machine. The issues that angered them were not new then, and are still present today, hence the "RAGE"
Tom Morello also has a degree in political science from Harvard... the man knows his ish!
Oh that’s dope
I was about to like this comment but I'm gonna let it stay at 69
He’s a communist. Buying a degree doesn’t make you smart
Indeed he is very smart man
@@Lurch685 saying hes a communist is like saying Russia is a democracy....
"Those who died are justified, by wearing a badge. they're your chosen whites!"" is the lyric you looked for but wasn't in those limited lyrics that were there.
upvote this
This makes zero sense
means those who wear a badge can harm whoever, whenever and it's justified.
@@NotT4c0Arms Police killings are Justified because they are the police. The badge they wear gives them the right to kill indiscriminately. He's calling them the Chosen Whites, tying it into "Those who work forces are those who burn crosses"
Really powerful lyric
Rage Against The Machine - Bulls on Parade . Awesome song.
Also need to check out Denzel Curry covering that song. He owned it!!! Love you guys. Keep on keepin it real. Philly loves you!!!
Definitely cover bulls on parade first song from them I heard when I was young their music has always been set apart
@Big Bicky It is actually "rally round the family, with a pocket full of shells." It is 🔥 indeed though.😂
That’s gotta be the next one.
yeah they need to hear bulls on parade.. shoulda listened to that one first
I love how a lot of people been reacting to Rage lately,hate the circumstances tho. These guys got popular without selling their souls,they always brought their message literally every song. I respect the shit outta that,not many in the mainstream in any era can say that
Rage against the machine pretended to be anti-establishment, we realize now that they are firmly in the establishment and pro government control!! Probably doing a pro vax Pfizer infomercial as we speak!! " F*ck you I won't do what ya tell me!!" Except, they'll do exactly what their government and big Pharma puppet masters tell them to do!! And they want you to aa well!! If you don't follow government orders, and obey, obey, obey, then they don't like you and don't back you and want to get rid of you!! Bahahahah, what a joke of an ideology!!
@@Clayton.Bigsby.360 Yeah shit's weak as hell.
except that they've become sell outs now
Soad
@@MagiaBased Idk much about the other 3 guys but Zack De la Rocha never sell out, he is no bs, he was here in Latinoamerica and he reunited with unions in Argentina and socialists organizations in Mexico, away from the journalists, it' said he also financed them, Zack doesn't fuck around
This song was inspired by what happened to Rodney King back in 91 and message is still relevant as ever
Completely agree w you
It was

When the beat drops on 'Fuck you I won't do what you tell me!' I love seeing people hear that for the first time, I get the biggest smile
Played this raising my kids, I told them to think for yourself, is the bottom line.
@@lrwiersum same. Played them for my son for the sane reason
@@lrwiersum yes that’s How it should be u should be your child’s friend and there parent

For more Rage Against the Machine I'd say either Know your Enemy or Wake Up.
This song you just did was from 1992. Crazy
This 100%
Know your enemy is definitely the next one they should do!
And then No Shelter!
feels more like yesterday, right?
@markmac Saw them live in '99 man, we aren't that old (...right!?). But fuck it, when I saw them, they were on their Battle of Los Angeles Tour, and this was in Atlanta and they had the album art displayed behind them on a HUUUUGGEE banner but it said "Battle of Atlanta" instead, and on top of that, Gangstarr opened for them. It was my first concert and probably still the best one I've seen.
When I saw them back in 2006, they had a variation of the lyrics.. “some of those that burn crosses, are the same that hold office”
Yeah I’ve heard that those there the original lyrics but they were pressure to change it by their label
@@artimes5542 if this is true then it's surprising they even let them get away with changing it from politicians to police.
@@pimpfnick8116 it goes for both as far as I’m concerned

And BTW, all those old democrat klansmen are mostly dead, I think democrat senator Robert Byrd was the last to pass in 2010
Zack de la Rocha has some BARS but this isn't really the song to showcase it since it's more a "bash you over the head with the same line until it sticks" song. I'd love to see you react to Down Rodeo or Wake up. Bulls on Parade is a classic too. 🤟💯
Bulls, for sure!!
Or Testify
You nailed it. This song has a message that’s simple and hits hard outlining police brutality, while many of their songs have more lyrical content to decipher.
And pistol grip pump, freedom, township rebellion
Yes! I vote Wake Up too
"Some of those that hold office are the same that burn crosses" are the lyrics they add when performing live.
Those were the original lyrics the record company insisted they change. But they do say the original lyrics live which is awesome.
Bout time you expand your genre. Rage is very political
So to your public enemy reference. In 2016 Prophets of Rage formed. It was Tom Morello the guitarist, Chuck D , DJ Lord and B Real. They formed right as the Trump rallies were heating up
I'm a white man who grew up in the US legit not knowing what racism was. I have family members that are black. My family racially integrated years ago, so this concept about "race" was totally foreign to me. It just didn't make sense. To me, it was like hating a member of your own family, because my family was made up of all colors, shapes, sizes, and ages. That's how it always was. Then, I realized that there was, at high levels, integrated racism, from POLICE FORCES, and GOVERNMENT. I was blown away.
Some of the people that represent us, are despicable, racist bigots, and yet, they stand on their podiums, begging for more tax-payer dollars and support for government overreach.
Couldn't be happier to see people diving back into what I consider "classic rock", and finding the incredible lyrical gems within.
Thank you!!!
As a kid on Oahu, my Brother got beat everyday at school cause he was white. We were the minority there in the early 60’s. A precious lesson in my life.
I'm calling it now, no protest is complete without this song. ✊💜
I smile at youngsters who say " This is the best time for music" and think back to the 90s, when it was truly the best time for music. ( just my opinion)
So sad that 27 years later from Rodney King to Eric Garner to George Floyd this song still stands true.
Hard to believe but I think it's gotten worse. I somehow got on a email list for Law Enforcement Today and holy shit! It's ran by by Leo both active and retired. If you want to see how racist, illiberal and conspiratorial cops are, check out that website. Its scary as shit. I've personally seen friends join the force and get more and more racist and right wing over the years. To the point I no longer associate with them at all.
Rage isn't singing this song for George, Rodney yes! Rage didn't ever support criminals! They spoke for human rights that don't have a voice.

Floyd died of an overdose of fetynal
They got banned from SNL cuz the lead singer Zack de la Rocha smoked a blunt on stage...on live tv 🤣
"Wake Up" should be next. Y'all not ready for what they bring. This was only scratching the surface.
Brad Martin cosign
Yes!
Rage is one of the best mixes of hip hop and rock that has ever existed... you should check out some Renegades of Funk, Take the Power Back, or Down Rodeo...They all have strong Public Enemy kinda vibes. You guys have just found a gold mine that is nearly 30 years old and still more relevant today than ever.
I've been stuck on Mic Check lately
Renegades of Funk is a cover of Afrikaa Bambataa.
You guys have opened a door to a whole different kind of music genre. Anything by Rage is going to have a strong anti establishment message that has just as much relevance now, as it did when it was released. I suggest “Down Rodeo” next.
Fun fact: originally the line was supposed to say "some of those that hold office, are the same who burn crosses" but they were censored and forced to change it
It goes for both as far as I’m concerned Because in 1977 the Ku Klux Klan after they became a illegal terrorist organization they said this is not the last you will see of us we will infiltrate your police forces your schools& your government and they where right they did. U can look it up
This song was written in the 90's the sad part is most of still relates to todays issues over 20 years later
Also thanks for breaking this song down
Great video
Crazy to me the number of guys in hip hop that haven't heard of or seen RATM up until these reaction videos got popular. They were hugely influenced by Public Enemy, Ice T/Body Count and Cypress Hill and on turn got me a big rock metal head into some older Hip hop. Definitely think y'all will dig most everything Rage has done between the bars and message they have
100%! I was just having that discussion with family.
I love that lyric even more after the protest, "Now you're under control" all these 'blue lives matter' types pretending they need the second amendment in case the government becomes tyrannical...you're the ones under control.
My favorite RATM songs is Testify and Know Your Enemy.
I love it when people think the 90's were "simpler times."
Give them this to listen to and see if they feel the same way afterwards.
Is crazy how fast you both got the meaning behind "burn crosses". It always surprised me how many people missed that
You love all of RATM. Other songs show more hip hop influence. Zach can rap his ass off too.
Zach did a song with krs1 and the last emperor on the first LYRICIST LOUNGE ALBUM that w was released back in 98'. Dope song 🔥
@@soupdogg1673 C.I.A Criminals in Action. A classic for sure.
You guys gotta do “Down Rodeo” for sure
But do a lyrics video to catch the bars.
WAKE UP Is a RATM must
a MUST
8:15 and onwards........ You guys "headbanging" and getting into really made my day, man. You guys just opened a TREASURE CHEST (the RAGE catalog) of great music that is more relevant today than ever. Glad you liked it. I just showed you some love on paypal as a thanks!
That reaction when he realized the lyric was “burn crosses”...
“FAX!” 😂
love this channel!
What is life right now? I’m so happy y’all did this!!! 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
👌🏾💯
Their music is very relevant today. Listen to "Know your Enemy" my favorite song by Rage
There's something about watching someone "get" this. You see people's attitude change from "this is a cool groove" to "wait, what?" during the first verse. I'm totally addicted to seeing that look now.
check out Sublime - April 29, 1992, it's about the LA riots, and specifically, participating in them. They're rock too but got a touch of reggae. It got a mobb deep sample too
"A few weeks ago, 10-year-old Nandi Bushell delivered an impressive cover of the Rage Against the Machine classic “Guerrilla Radio”, in which she played drums, bass, and guitar. Now, RATM’s Tom Morello has gifted the young rocker with his new signature Fender Soul Power Stratocaster."

She just got to play drums again w/Foo Fighters in a tribute to Taylor at Wembley. Didn’t look nervous at all, played Learn To Fly like a pro! (The video is up, if you haven’t seen it.)
#RollingDownRodeo is a perfect Rage song for the protestors.
Hey y’all, this is the first vid I’ve seen from ya. Within the first minute you mention givin a stab at something you ain’t familiar with. That right there earned ya another subscriber! Keep it up and I look forward to some more. Heads up, Rage is a mix of metal, rap and funk! Enjoy!
I love watching people broaden their horizon on music. I was die hard rock for a whole lot of my life (only rock), then i discovered the poetry of rap. Enriched my listening a bunch! "Just a different beat" was a great comment. Fits the message in different genres perfectly.
Zachary de la Rocha: Mexican-American singer. PhD in anthropology.
Tom Morello: African-American guitarist. Master's in political science from an ivy league school. The most innovative guitarist in all of rock 'n roll. Ever.
That's the reason those lyrics remain relevant and timeless decades later. The guys who play bass & drums are amazing, but those two are some of the most electrifying front-men ever.
Listen to Bulls On Parade, then listen to Denzel Curry's amazing cover.
Just a public service announcement: That wicked riff you guys reacted to was all organic guitar. No turntable.
I’ve danced to this song a many of times. Glad you guys liked it. Listen to some Alice In Chains Would?, or Tool Pneuma or The Pot. You should check out Chris Cornell’s version of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean”..it’s amazing.
So rad once the first bar drops they totally understand the whole song!
Keep reviewing. Get ready for some political bars. Bulls on Parade, Down Rodeo, Renegades of Funk, People of the Sun, Testify, Guerila Radio, are a must.
Some people wish Rage would make a comeback - but they don’t need to, their original music is as relevant as ever.
They are back together. They just aren’t releasing any more albums, so far. Sadly, they don’t need to release anything new to stay relevant.
Rage was speaking hard truth back in the 90s that’s as important and timely now as it ever was. I was blessed to see them live...and they ruled that stage like prophet kings.
"RATM is like Public Enemy"
Nailed it. I was a 16 year old white kid reading about Huey Newton because Chuck D hit me in the face with a lyric. I needed a reaction video.....on VHS
So glad to see y'all doing this foray into rock. It's where I started and the things that drew me to it are the same things that drew me to hip hop. 🔥 #planetbreakdown #huglife
These two genres have always been so closely linked people dont realise x
You liked this so you DEFINITELY would love Walk by Pantera!
Been watching you guys off and on for a year or so now... you finally got a sub with this. I dig people checking out music outside their comfort zone, even if RATM is a baby step. Cheers!
I've been rocking to Ratm for nearly 30yrs. Bullet in the Head is a great song and message.
Also “Take the Power Back” is super deep and bar heavy fellas. Always bring up the lyric video for Rage cause their message is to important to miss. Appreciate you guys
I'd say Wake Up or Know Your Enemy by Rage would be great to see yall react to. Love yall.
"That sh$# kicking" effect made me laugh out loud.🤘
The face of the guy on the right during the guitar solo 🎸👍🤣🤣🤣
Every rage song has bars like that but this one had stood true since 1991
“You justify those that died
By wearing the badge
They're the chosen whites”
Doesn’t get much realer than that
I would love to see y'all react to "Know Your Enemy" by Rage Against the Machine. Funky and bar heavy
First time watching you guys, just to let you know I just subscribed too.
But just had to tell you, it’s wonderful to see people reacting to RATM. But to see you guys actually listen to it and truly understand the lyrics is the best part.
For me growing up this song was just a song I listened to, in the dressing room as a pump up song before hockey. As a white dude from Newfoundland Canada that’s what this song was for me. But for you guys right now, it’s legit life. And that sucks. Keep safe, keep watching more Rage too. Peace and love.
Well done fellas! I wish you could have had the chance to see Rage live. They were electric and powerful beyond belief. The stories they told in song were genious and to the point. Im a 58 year old white retired police officer and every lyric Rage sang referencing racism and police violence against people of color is spot on! KEEP RAGING.
Fun fact: The legendary guitarist, Tom Morello, is black.
Fun fact: I don't think any more or less of him now. You on the other hand...
Even more fun: He holds a degree in Political Science from Harvard.
You may want to rethink what kind of fun facts you find relevant.
Bulls on Parade - Rage Against the Machine!
The original and the Denzel Curry version....
I saw Wu Tang open for Rage back in like 95-96 my senior year in HS at the old Continental Area in NJ. Zach was going nuts on stage during bombtrack then all of a sudden dropped.
They took him off stage for like 20-30 min. He came back all of a sudden going just as psycho and put on a hell of a show, as well as a killer show by Wu Tang.
We read in the newspaper the next day that Zach had shattered bones in four places in his leg. The man rocked out with a basically useless leg!!! It was epic!!!
YAASS!
Rage against the Machine - Calm like a bomb / Freedom / Wake up / Bombtrack !
already cant wait!
Rage against the machine Wake up
lol when you mention Public Enemy, PE and Rage toured together, and now Tom Morello is playing with Chuck D in Prophets of Rage. Rage was more political than PE was, just took 20 years to be taken as seriously.
2nd line that the record company made them change is "some of those that hold office are the same that burn crosses", which zach still sings live :)
This came out in the aftermath of the LA Riots in the 90's...after the beating of Rodney King. RATM are deeply engrained in equality and in the fight against injustice. This band, and their message, became an outlet for what many of us were feeling at the time. Rage changed the rock world.
Listening to Rage back then was the first exposure I ever got as a little white girl growing up in the rural south to the idea that systemic injustice is inherent at every level in our country. I had Rage on a loop all throughout my teens and exploring their lyrics opened up an entirely new way of thinking and seeing the world for me. I'm a hardcore liberal to this day and this was where it started. I'm sure I'm not the only one that would say that either. Powerful lyrics.
@@kristylopez6869 same. I grew up very naive and sheltered in a white suburban community where we never even locked our doors at night. The LA Riots and fallout from the beating of Rodney King opened my eyes to some of the real problems of the world. When Killing in the Name of came out...I found myself immersed in their message and that made me aware of the inequality people face in the world as well as the massive problem of police brutality our nation faced. I've been a massive fan since. Thirty years later their songs are more relevant than ever. But then again...the black community has been dealing with these types of problems for 300 years so the past thirty is literally just a drop in the bucket. Sadly.
Bulls On Parade next! The Degeneration X entrance music was performed by this band
Love to see more reactors peeping rage, for sure check the songs "down rodeo" "bulls on parade" and " know your enemy "
Greetings from Indonesia! RATM has been my all time favorite band for decades! This song cant be anymore relevant to this day and age! I'm all with #blacklivesmatter and #defundthepolice . Keep the rage!
Please react to Rage against the machine’s “know your enemy”, “down rodeo”, “calm like a bomb”, “testify”, “bulls on parade”, “renegades of funk”, “wake up”....dude there are sooo many great songs! This group’s songs have sadly aged well. 🔥🔥🔥
I would like to see you guys do some Red Hot Chili Peppers, maybe One Big Mob? It's hard to pick, there are so many rock songs with great lyrics
You gotta react to a “Killing The Name” omg 🔥🔥 and Bulls On The Parade 🔥🔥
Yes!!
What are you talking about this IS a reaction to Killing in the name ?
@@_Sarby1 we probably watched/said the wrong one lol. We watch all of them.
@@_Sarby1 Bulls OnParade 😂😂❤❤
Im an old Irish punk. They are traveling the spectrum of counciuosnss
LOVE the contrast of a Dunder Mifflin shirt while Rage plays in the background
react to master of puppets by metallica
Bulls on parade and gorilla radio, great rage against the machine songs
Both of those are classics.
"Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against The Machine or "People of the Sun" or "Wake Up" or "No Shelter" or anything by them is fire.
Yay! I love you guys! So happy to hear something different!
There are better songs for you guys to get hooked to this band. "Wake up" is a must be for bars
Finally ,go to every genre man . Get them number!!
This is a classic :)
The U.K made a petition for everyone to buy this single over christmas to make it christmas no.1 like 10 years back, they held a concert on the embankment in london to celebrate winning
This music is so sad and powerful, to think all the hate still spread on the street, love eachother we are stronger together...
Public Enemy were the first group to take them on tour. They went on tour with P.E. before their 1st album was released. Chuck D. is in a group with the band right now. Prophets of Rage.
I really like the comparison you made between RATM and Public Enemy. In fact, the latter recognized them and they invited the group to open certain concerts at the beginning of their career and RATM were honored to do that.
THANK YOU so much! You put a huge smile on my face reliving this music.
Yo I gotta say I never made the connection you made with rage and public enemy and I’ve been listening to both for years. This is why I love how many different content creators there are out there, I came in for a reaction and I learned something new. Thanks and keep it up!!
Loved that song forever, and y'alls vid was AWESOME
Respect for branching out. This video got me into your channel.
Love your channel fellas! Like others have said, Bulls on Parade and Wake Up are two musts for you guys. It shows off Zach's rapping a lot more.
Rage Against the Machine - "Know Your Enemy" - my favorite by them. Also "Freedom"
Fam! WE NEED THIS BAND RIGHT NOW NO CAP!!!
This was a Christmas #1 song in the U.K. Main chart about ten years later, a protest against the dominance of "pop idol" reality TV Stars. Ok not as bad as KKK members in the police I admit. Still makes me proud to be British.
More Rage!!! “Calm Like a Bomb”, “Down Rodeo”, “Bulls on Parade”...or anything from them.
Idk why but I find it amazing that black folks can bump to heavy rock music. I love it, feels like were all comin together
Interesting you say they're like a hip hop group. After the bassist, guitarist, and drummer from RATM were in Audioslave (another great group) they formed another supergroup called Prophets of Rage. That group was the three members of RATM, Chuck D and DJ Lord from Public Enemy, and B Real from Cypress Hill.
That was on point to compare Rage to Public Enemy. And in fact the players in Rage, guitar, bass and drums, formed another group with Chuck D from Public Enemy and B Real from Cyprus Hill on lead vocals, called Prophets Of Rage.
Glad yall did the original version!
Public Enemy toured with tons of metal bands in the 90s. Chuck D likes metal and was even in a side project with these guys.
