@@WelpHereWeAreOnTH-cam Yea, looking at your numbers, that "R&B" hit different. Coming back with a childish response just solidified your agenda here. But carry on!
@@THEORGINALPLUSH we shall carry on, and do so happily and with child like wonder. Not sure why you are so hard on us, we are just a silly channel having fun. But thank you for showing your character.
Watching two white men react to Formation was an out of body experience for me 😂 this video is so specific and authentic to Black culture I never really considered how non-black people would digest it until just now. Its cool that you guys are doing this series because its giving me another perspective on music and culture in general really. How you interpret the lyrics and the story being told will be really interesting to me moving forward
Black Twitter and black TH-cam are two different places. Vlad is being torn into pieces (rightfully so) and here y’all actually pay two random white guys to react to the culture. Why do y’all push the culture on white people so much? What exactly was an out of body experience watching two white guys react to this? I don’t get excited about random white people reacting to our culture. I just don’t get it.
Same that was such an interesting experience because i just realized that some people truly won’t get it because it’s not their lived experience and that’s hilarious.
I'm just going to point out that you all say R&B is not your thing. I get that. But this isn't typical R&B. Formation may be R&B/Hip Hop adjacent, but NOTHING else sounds like this. And I am glad that y'all could still appreciate this. Lemonade as a project spans genres, as does the new Cowboy Carter. But it makes me so happy that y'all are actually discovering who Beyonce is as an artist... and that is genre-less and experimental. You can't put her in a box. Especially in the projects since 2016.
Tbh, i didn't expect you guys to get this song but I'm happy you guys were open minded about it. Formation is a very pivotal part of Beyonce's discography because it was when she started singing about being unapologetically black. SNL even did a skit about it called The Day Beyoncé turned black. When she performed this at the Superbowl with Bruno Mars and Coldplay, it caused so much outrage from white people that they were calling for Beyonce to be boycotted. It was such a caotic time and of cos Beyonce doubled down with more black power anthems. I love that woman 😂.
Formation is definitely in my top 3 favorite Beyonce songs. This song Formation resonates differently with Black people, especially Black women. And that’s the thing with Bey, she pays really close attention to what’s happening in the world because I promise you, Black women NEEDED this song. Even Adele addressed it on the stage at the Grammy’s when she won AOTY and Beyonce didn’t. Very powerful song !!
If I remember correctly police departments and others actually tried to boycott Beyonce after her performance of this song at the 2016 Super Bowl (since she dressed up as a black panther). Which subsequently she came out with Boycott Beyonce merch but I said this to say that this song really changed a lot for me perspective wise for Bey. As a lifelong fan since I was 6, it was so interesting seeing her in the lemonade era. She really became another state of artist and I’m excited for yall to see Coachella. I hope yall watch the entire thing on Netflix and not just cutdown/Water down TH-cam video performances
This is from the Genius lyrics "about me" section: “Formation” is a Black Power anthem, a fitting contribution to Black History Month and an important conversation piece in the Black Lives Matter movement. The song was released one day after what would have been Trayvon Martin’s 21st birthday and one day before what would have been Sandra Bland’s 29th birthday. Martin and Bland’s deaths are focal points of Black Lives Matter. New Orleans bounce musician Big Freedia, who appears on the interlude, noted the song and video showcase Bey “paying homage to her roots.” Bounce music originated in New Orleans and is a faster paced style of hip-hop music. The entire Lemonade album is paying homage to her life, her past, her ancestors - all of it, so there's definitely more than what meets the eye.
I really appreciate you putting yourself in a vulnerable space and offering up your interpretation. I think it will be one of those songs that as you see it in different contexts throughout your journey, it will become all the richer.
guys.. Beyoncé bought the rights to her performance at coachella.. many are reacting to her performance so there should be no problem making the reaction to "Beyoncé coachella 2018"
So... I'm sure someone else has already made this comment, but react to the Lemonade visual album (make sure that each video is the right one and not some fan BS). Lemonade, followed by Homecoming (which is on Netflix) The Lion King: The Gift (on Disney +), Renaissance, and Cowboy Carter have all made me a huge Beyonce fan. She is actually as amazing as the Beyhive says she is and if you love music, you will come to respect, appreciate, and likely love her as an artist. There are other reaction videos on TH-cam with other Johnny Come lately(s) like me who also admit that they came to understand the fanfare around this woman... She has earned it.
Can you guys react to her live version of her song Resentment. Its so heartbreakingly beautiful and vulnerable and one of my and many favorite emotional performances. (Her singing it after Jay cheated on her and in wedding attire really paint a sad picture of reality but she is triumphant in the end.
Thanks for sharing guys. As a man who is going on my own personal journey to open myself up to other genres of music outside my typical wheelhouse, I applaud you guys for your journey of discovery. Full disclosure, I haven't agreed with every comment you've made, nor should I, or anyone else necessarily - we don't have to agree on everything. But I love that you're being open and honest about what you're discovering. If you loved everything, you'd seem disingenuous and ass-kissy so I prefer the honesty. I'm a massive Bey fan and i don't love every track she's ever done (though certainly almost all). But i have to add that Lemonade is a journey in and of itself, and when you've had the chance to experience the visual album from front to back, you'll see just how worth it your journey has been. I don't expect that you'll love Renaissance as much as some others (could be wrong, though I did and the tour in Vegas was bonkers!). I do wish people would give you a bit more grace though... The genre is new to you, and I think it's unfair that people are judging you for "why you're doing this." To my fellow Beyhive family, we didn't "own" Beyonce, but we love her. She opened herself up to the whole world, and the world is free to enjoy her with us. Anyone who feels differently needs to re-evaluate THEIR place in this world, and figure out why they think they get to take ownership of her - she wouldn't agree with them. Beyonce sang "I am here..." We're all here! Make that mean something. At least these guys are putting themselves out here. Sure they're getting TH-cam dollars - we're all free to do the same if we choose. A big part of being a decent human is owning "I ain't sweating you... Why u sweating me?" Some of us are actually taking this trip with them and enjoying it. Live and let live until it affects you negatively - then by all means, clap! Carry on guys!
Can we get a video of you two reacting to the full ‘Lemonade’ visual album? There’s so much intention and passion to take from it. It would be really cool’s to get your reaction from it.
My comment keeps getting removed. I edited and reposted it, just in case of certain guidelines you might have, and you guys wanted some clarification as to what the song and video means. So, I reposted it and now it's not in the comments anymore. What happened?
@@WelpHereWeAreOnTH-cam Ok. I tried for a third time to post, but I guess someone has a problem with me leaving you some historical information that coincides with the song and video messages. Hopefully you got to read it. Yes, this video is full of easter eggs and clues to read about. Thanks for the reaction anyway.
its not the same reacting to the songs at Coachella! it has to be the real performance. others have done it and the videos are still up so maybe it won't be blocked?
i was not a beyonce fan until this video. in fact, i was a staunch hater. when i saw the way she represented louisiana (my dad's roots) i started stanning her after that 😌
Also hated her passionaly. Until I heared the song Rocket stoned on the headphone. That moment changed how i see music. I love her ever since, especially her deeper voice and mature view of art compared to what she did pre 2010.
This video was released during all the police brutality against our black men. The flooding of hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. Beyoncé used her platform on this one. Of course you did not understand this video and I was not surprised. Thank you both for trying but a little research prior would be more helpful when choosing a subject.
Some things you just not gonna get because it ain't for you. And i say that respectfully because i do appreciate you trying something different but aint for you. As a matter of fact, this sing tends to upset white folk. 😂😂
What a lot of folks miss though is that Formation WAS for them too (them meaning non-Black folks)... It's a call to action for Black people - especially our Black women, and a call to put non-Blacks on notice (not all - just the jacked up ones who don't know how to be a decent human to highly melanated people). As is typical with Beyonce, she's usually got multiple agendas in her art. This is one of those. My favorite scene is with the kid dancing with intention in front of the cop lineup... It says "this is us standing, alone or together... Pay attention because we are!" It's blatant and unapologetically Black and I love it. But I also love that these guys are literally looking for the broad picture.
It's not the music, it's you. Why are y'all even doing this? For a youtube check?
????? lol. You are adorable 🥰

As an Houstonian, same age as Bey, why do you care? She’s not yours.
You from New Orleans? Doubt it.

It sounds more New Orleans bounce esque to me
This is a black woman anthem! 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾

Omg I loved that skit! I recall that skit when trump said Kamala “turned black”.
I'm glad you guys got the message, she's always down for her culture, you will be seeing more of that. Thanks guys
Literally coming from the Bruno superbowl reaction 😂
And yes that’s why it’s called Lemonade!!

This is an anthem among beyhive members, one of her best songs EVER and such a statement!! Love you guys for reacting to it! ❤
I really appreciate you putting yourself in a vulnerable space and offering up your interpretation. I think it will be one of those songs that as you see it in different contexts throughout your journey, it will become all the richer.
❤ I Love that you guys are continuing with the Beyoncé journey! 🤗
More to come!
When y'all react to Beyonce, the self-titled album visuals, my guy gonna lose his sh**, his camera ain't ever gonna be in focus lol
😝😝
beyonce is sooo humble! i love when she talks her shit from time to time 😂😂
guys.. Beyoncé bought the rights to her performance at coachella.. many are reacting to her performance so there should be no problem making the reaction to "Beyoncé coachella 2018"
I respect that you two took this on! You guys rock!!! ✊🏽
I agree, she looks very elegant and chic in everything she wears, her elegant face card also never declines ❤
Very political statement about BLM, her country/southern heritage, her drive to be successful etc. Her songs and videos are very initial.
Y’all are killing these reactions!!!🔥🔥🔥
Thank you 🙏 ❤️
I appreciate your perspective on the conversation around the message of this song/visual.
Nice reaction
❤️❤️❤️

Also "I Am ... Sasha Fierce" is the name of an album where she takes on this alter ego - Sasha Fierce
😂😂😂 The Look of Confusion is Gold !!! Love it ! Keep shaking the table Bey.

Yes especially the one where she is crying, that breaks my heart. 😢😭 They should do the pre- lemonade one and post lemonade from otr 2 tour!
Breaks my heart too. It reminds us she's human which is insanely hard to do.
Whenever i see the pool scene, it makes me emotional. Knowing what it symbolizes 😢😢😢
‘’Things are bouncing around “😂😂😂
Keep it up guys!
Really hope y’all react to Beyoncé’s lemonade album the visual version🩷

Was not expecting this reaction at all lmaooo
In what way ?
Ok another request
Beyoncé beautiful ones/Sex of fire - Glastonbury live
If I were a boy medley (Grammys award )
Thank you much appreciated
i was not a beyonce fan until this video. in fact, i was a staunch hater. when i saw the way she represented louisiana (my dad's roots) i started stanning her after that 😌
Also hated her passionaly. Until I heared the song Rocket stoned on the headphone. That moment changed how i see music. I love her ever since, especially her deeper voice and mature view of art compared to what she did pre 2010.
When are you guys going to react to Savage Remix by Beyonce and Meagan the stallion..
Her thighs. Took me out 😂

We can’t research what we don’t know. We’ve been doing this a long time. We go into reactions blind. That’s how we do it. It’s not for everyone
And, I just wanted to say, if you react to Partition, Blow and Rocket, you'll lose it completely 😏😏
Dance for you 😢
Whew y'all sat there like deers in headlights
.. that was difficult
Yawn. 🥱
