sadly DAMN won't be able to deliver as hard I assume :(
Have you listened to DAMN? It’s definitely up there as well (I think it’s timeless), but it’s a bit more mainstream compared to his other albums.
HUH?!
a "bad" or "below average" kendrick album is still a kendrick album at the end of the day. damn is by no means a bad album in the grand scheme of things.
even though you're prob not wrong about it not delivering AS hard as tpab (what could?), you'll still absolutely enjoy it and probably want to come back to a lot of songs on it.
but hey, if you go in with low expectations it might blow you away.
Damn is still a great album. It’s a concept album with some crazy details with a modern sound.
Damn is his pulitzer winning album , still great
Insulted my mother twice in the opening 90 seconds. Subscribed
lol this guy. is so unhinged 💀💀i love it
Fr this guy is hilarious haha
nah, why he calling me femboy bottom too
Lmaooo his energy is insane I had to do the same

10:58 "We don't wanna be sexist on this channel, we're only racist" Caught me so off guard😂
I laughed so fucking hard 😂😂😂
W pfp
24:55 took me off guard too
@@Lynfinityalso when he told us we’re at the bottom then harped on the fact that we’re bottoms😂
You people are weirdos I think he was talking about drake
The most normal German, this dude is unhinged and based
This man has the most german accent ever
It’s so funny because he sounds like he’s so well-mannered while saying some unhinged shit
i must be europeanist cuz i couldnt tell if he was french or fuckin what

this mf is way too funny, bro might be a comedic genius 😭🙏
fr I'm obsessed
Thanks
@@CasualCat64Fym “thanks” you are NOT bro😭
"Well Kendrick, great way to ruin the fucking mood." That cracked me up 😂
32:34
I bought it on vinyl before even knowing the album. Didn't disappoint 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Back in college people used to play this album on vinyl at parties and it sounds so fucking good on vinyl
The fact that people like jazz is one of the worst things i've realided,i geniuenky think it is country level when it comes to quality।
@AbuBakar-yj8nb what's wrong with jazz and Country?
@@Gragglejin some generes that i find to be excrutiatingly boring for me।

Fun fact about this album: The Original name for this album was gonna be "To Pimp a Caterpillar" to give it the acronym "TPAC" as homage to Tupac.
To was spelled Tu but yes
I’ve heard it originally stood for To Pickle a Cabbage, and it’d be like a audio cook book
Could also be called 2pac
In an mtv interview he said he didn’t mean for it to have the Tupac acronym
@@pugpeep7493 still pretty cool that it got it anyway. Cool lil coincidence
Fun Fact: In an interview with Rick Rubin, Kendrick Lamar revealed that he discovered his love for jazz when his producer noted his affinity for jazz chords.
I found out recently that it was Robert Glasper.
And Terrance Martin☺️
I thought in that interview it’s bc Kendrick was rly being influenced by a genre of music from Star Wars
This is just art. Just sheer, cliff-face art.
1:08:03 Nope, one of the biggest controversies in Grammy's history is this album being snubbed album of the year by a Taylor Swift album. It did win rap album of the year tho.
I thought it lost to macklemore's album
@@SEOshogun nah, I think it was GKMC that lost against macklemore for rap album of the year
I'd aruge kendrick losing to macklemore for GKMC was more of a controversy tbh lol
@@carlosdiazvilla2081 wow that's wild. Even macklemore thought that was messed up and apologized. Messaged Kendrick after. Macklemore posting the message on social media afterwards, also wild, but I guess he just wanted everyone to understand he knew
@@slevin6544 Yeah that Macklemore album ironically is called the heist 😂
I'm living vicariously through so many people who are just now listening to Kendrick Lamar. All these reaction videos about his albums.
Possibly the best thing that came out of the beef is that others are finally listening to his music lol
I remember the day this album dropped, just cruised blunts to this for hours
My high ass thought this was john mulaney
@@AlexIAm30man that really sounds like such a vibe
Rapsody is a woman actually. She's one of the best female rappers of our time!
She’s incredible. Her part is one of the best parts of the album imo
Her and Little Simz, they are crushing it right now
She just came out with a new album today
@@khailart8858 that album is so fye bro
@@khailart8858 great news!
75 seconds in this guy is electric
Instead of pacifying
He is!
"75 seconds in, dis guy" and "75 seconds in dis guy" is TWO different things
@@WolfPack_BRDude that's why grammar is so important
One minute in, I can’t wait 😂
-says the n word 6 times
“This is already a classic”
omg, this guy is off the meds 😂😂😂😂😂
yoooo he’s just german 😭
@@ava-98991I thought it was French but yeah, I never realized how similar they were
@@jakobayers French! 😂
41:35 bro went bar for bar with Kendrick💀😭 i need a hype man like bro in the studio
Wesley got put in jail for tax evasion. He’s talking about how hard it is to stay wealthy once u get it, especially coming from where he’s from
"whos george Clinton?"
"Whos richard pryor?"
I'm so jealous you get to learn about these two guys for the first time.
at the same time too, i’d give all my belongings away to have this experience😭
You should listen to untitled unmastered, its 8 songs/demos that didnt make it on To Pimp A Butterfly.
I second this, it’s even more jazz influenced
100000%
The guy read ur recommendation
I think it was perfect how you ended with explaining how you can hand the information to the caterpillar and then that's all you can do, followed up by saying "damn..."
Because DAMN. as an album really feels like Kendrick Lamar's struggle through having that same realization and not knowing where to go or how to cope with it, leading him to start looking inward to create DAMN. and later Mr. Morale.
You described this and prefaced damn perfectly. It’s just incredible how Kendrick effortlessly weaves the narratives of his albums together and all exist as a reaction to the previous one. One of the most cohesive bodies of work across all forms of artistic expression.
This!
It's so hard watching people first reaction to this album cause most of the meaning just goes right over their heads 😭😭 solid reaction though
Can't blame them though it's insanely complex
I still learn new things after at least 30 listens
@scolipete2800 ok but some of very serious lines that are outright surface level and meant to be understood the first time this guy just mistook for humor. This guy is actually as smart as a baboon.
This nigga mad funny
As a black jazz musician/hip hop head myself ive never subbed so fast to a reaction channel 😂😂
Bro says whatever comes to mind. Subscribed
0:57 this moment alone earnt a sub
ngl he got me in the first 10 seconds
How Much A Dollar Cost is one of my favorite songs ever. I'm not even that religious, but the end gives me chills every time
agreed. similar to jesus walks by kanye
A funny paradox is that if you are not religious you might be more religious than the religious people.
@@sigmaohiogyattfanumrizz how so
Every...time!!!!
Interesting detail - Richard Pryor, referenced in King Kunta, is the same person interpolated in the reversed “Everything they say about me is true!” at the very beginning of Euphoria.
Not particularly significant, but a detail worth noting.
also mentioned on humble “show me something natural like afro on richard pryor”
kenny must really love richard pryor lmao
@@korekittenI mean, who doesn't?
He's a comedy legend!
Whitney Alford is Kendrick’s wife/partner
Didn't he cheat on her 💀
@@tamerailListen to Mr. Morale and you'll know
@@tameraillisten to Mr. Morale and you'll know
@@tamerail oh you gotta listen to mr morale😭 that’s crazy
He did cheat on her but it is unknown if they’re still together or not
I’m glad that people are going back to Kendricks catalog
Nobody asked but one of my fav Jazz albums might be Mother Natures Son by Ramsey Lewis ❤️
Isnt that a beatles song
@@Dor_atar a big chunk of Beatles songs, even just popular 60s songs in general, we’re covers
@@ScotchOffTheRocks The Beatles song is the original in this case though, that jazz album is covers of their songs.
@@ScotchOffTheRocksThe Beatles stopped doing covers from Rubber Soul onwards (Help! was all originals too but Beatles For Sale does have a few)
Mustache theme by takeshi inomata is cool beatles jazz cover of hey jude
Your insights on first listen is seriously impressive. This is a dense piece of art, and it took me many listens to unpack it. It’s a gift that keeps on giving!
12:32 hitting you in the face... chris brown style fucking got me 💀
Thundercats bass playing on this record is peak
this guy's like if drake bell and pewdiepie got into a teleporter and something went wrong
Whitney Alford is his partner/firancé. She's in each album after this if im not mistaken. I know she's in Mr Morale a lot as herself basically
I don’t think I’ve become a fan of a reactor this fast before. Hilarious and insightful. Subscribed
Hip Hop descends from Jazz and other Black American genres. That is one of the main reasons it sounds so good together.
Beautiful watch. Seeing you miss cultural concepts while totally grasping others and still getting the important bits right. With the comedy on top. Unique reviewer. Subscribed
I luv Kendrick! Bilal is phenomenal in his own right, I highly suggest listening to all of his projects 🫶🏾
bro 90 seconds in and I already know im going to love this video. good shit
let me break it down to you: Hip Hops whole foundation was sprouted from Jazz. How Hip Hop was born was thru people finding snippets of loops in jazz songs and layering many loops to create a song (AKA Sampling). the most famous example would be Shook Ones pt2, where the drums are sampled off a jazz artist i cant name atm and the synth being a sample from herbie hancock. In the 90's, the East and West coast both used the same formula but had different sounds; that's where sub genres of hip hop come in. Genres like "gangsta rap" and literally "Jazz Hip Hop" were born thru sampling. Jazz is one of the main components to why Hip Hop is a thing nowadays, but Rap was made on its own. The way i think of Hip Hop is "digital jazz with poetry", "digital jazz" is terrible phrasing but what i mean is composing music with similar but more advanced instruments, samples found online and shit. i love both genres.
as well as the influence of jazz on hip hop is why their sound is super similar. my consensus is the pocket/rhythm. also gotta realize Hip Hop has gone thru generations, meaning it's evolved but has similar concepts. think of it like the game "Telephone" where a message is passed down a line of people and the original message could be very different but similar to what the last person was told. 2000's artists were inspired by what 90's artists did but had a very different sound, same goes with 2010's to the 2000's. at the start it was more jazzy, but hip hops groove was mainly "hip" and "hop", yk bootsncats type shit. 2000's tried finding a new angle, 2010's became the digital age which opened more possibilities, and what i expect to evolve the game is more experimental hip hop, or a combo of synth wave and hip hop. Hip hop works best when it works well with other genres. in my eyes, hip hop is a second opinion to another songs genre; a different take if you will. it's where creativity shines bright because a hip hop songs core melody could be genreless but still sound like hip hop. it's awesome
Wait are u sure it’s foundation started from Jazz. I thought it started from Funk?
@Twastwas211 and what did funk come from?
@@ShloppyShmeat mix of soul,r&b,gospel, AND JAZZ😱😱😱😱 but if we’re talking hip hop origins it didn’t really start using “Jazz” until the late 80’s early 90’s that’s what I’m getting at.
This dude is hilarious and breaks down music so well🤣
brilliant video, love your energy man
I'm like 2 minutes in and you've made me lol like 3 times, I appreciate your sense of humor.
It never dawned on me after all these years that Whitney was featured at the end of Wesley's Theory.
loving the reaction, stumbled on the channel randomly
didn’t think i would watch the entire video, but here i am. loved it
The first transition between Wesleys Theory and For Free is always overlooked, but one of my favorite parts of the album!
These Walls is a song about revenge
BEEN WAITING ON THIS
Your energy is incredible brother, bless up
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
bro switched from yeezus Lover to Jazz Lover
both are amazing. Just like your mum and your sister I sometimes can't decided which is better 🥰
@@tamerail LMFAO.
@@tamerail DAMN.
Wtf this guy has no chill 😂😂😂
He cooked u 😭
Hip-Hop is an amalgamation of elements from every genre
bro ur funny asf and ur input is actually valuble. feels like some people just go "WOOOOO OMG HE REALLY SAID THAT??" like... yes? anyways u got my sub
Fun fact: There are no 808s on this whole album! Its all live drums which is why it sounds so punchy and satisfying.
There are definitely 808’s on this album
Nah there are 808s on alriight
where did you pull this info from
i spread misinformation online.
@@blind6144😂😂😂
You gained a subscribe from me man. Hilarious banter but you went really in depth on this album. TPAB is one of the most well put together rap albums/albums of all time imo. You kind of get immersed into his life through his words. And the PRODUCTION IS TOP TIER
I really enjoyed this reaction man. This is my favorite album of all time so I love ur commentary on it. Funny ass dude😂😂😂
“Can he top it? Like I topped your mom” I had to pause 😂
LETS GOOOOO NEW TAMERAIL REACTION JUST DROPOED🔥🔥🔥🔥
DAMN. NOW! DO IT!
YESSSS THANK YOU, this is arguably the best Rap album of all time too, it's certainly one of the best albums ever made in any genre tbh
Agreed it’s so deep n tbh I still don’t understand all of it n tbh I don’t think I ever will 😂
Agree! Unfortunately, casual rap/hip-hop fans don’t really care for it. But musicians and music lovers alike understand the gravity of this album! THIS should have been the album to win the Pulitzer. But Kendrick deserves that either way with DAMN.
Definitely my favourite album
@@pastenseCasual fans don’t like it because it doesn’t sound great
@@rossovergmd yup. Casual fans should stick to that basic, unintelligent sh!t they call music. I ain’t mad lol. Like what you like.
jazz lover, funny, knows music, insults my mother... AMAZING
i wathced the first 90 seconds, and was offended no less than a dozen times. where has this guy been
Love your breakdown, Brother. Have not been really a fan of reaction channels lately, but your breakdown, perpective, wit, and humor are spot on. Im subsribed and look forward to more content from you.
The first minute was a trip
Dude u caught a lot with this album! It’s difficult for a first listen cuz there’s so much that goes into it, but once u give it a chance it’s INCREDIBLE!
the first 50 seconds and i already subbed, you got charisma
“Femboy bottoms” How’d he know?!
I fed you that info 😭😭 i swear its fake
Lol the second he said it I looked around like "bitch what"
(don’t overlook damn it continues the story and is key and really connects Tpab to morale) :edited: cuz he has done Mr morale already lol
👏DAMN! What a vid bro ur so entertaining and the knowledge you carry and can explain is amazing. But fr we need a DAMN reaction
Ive been listening to Kendrick's entire discography after the beef as well, we had pretty similar reactions to this record. Completely blew me away
I love jazz because of how many modern genres it has heavily influenced. Like hip hop and rock and a bit of pop (it's watered down but it's still there). It's such a wide reaching genre
this might be the most insane video intro I have ever seen
i LOVE your videos!!!
"this guy is the opposite of the back of milk cartons. He does not miss" is one of the best jokes ive ever heard
"I was given an n-word pass by a Morroccan guy" That Morroccan guy know damn well Morroco was nowhere near America when Black-Americans coined the phrase 💀but besides that, this is one of the funniest music reactions I've ever watched. You had me cracking up, especially when Kendrick said "I know what the Germans done" on Complexion and you looked at the camera. Enjoyed these 100 minutes with a smile on my face and a laugh in my belly!
Also on "Black as the heart of a fuckin Aryan"
You could see the "oh shit" on his face
The frequent yo mama jokes are juvenile and uncalled for.

I'm starting to think that the subscribers are bunch of masochist femboys
No reactor has ever caught me off guard so quickly and so many times in a row 💀
boy am I excited for this
i clicked on this video and was gonna skip to certain songs, but the intro caught me off guard and i realized u were actually funny and watched this whole thing in its entirety.
what a fucking way to enter a video.
I grew up with jazz and funk because of my dad while my mom taught me about literally every other genre. I got so lucky with my music taste. I only get compliments on my playlists. I’m HUGE on instruments and instrumentals because of my dad. One of my favorite musicians as a child is a bassist called Marcus Miller.
“The beat hits you right in the face, Chris Brown style” 😂😂 13:46 subscribed
We NEED to see the disses reaction LMAOOO also banger video
"It hits you right in the face...Chris Brown style" this man taking no prisoners
Excited for this! If you want to check out any UK artists I would recommend the album by Little Simz - Sometimes I may be introvert
Lmfaoooo man said “wait, that’s the wrong fanbase” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
We're only racist
Never has a video captivated me in the first 5 words, and under a second.
I just listened to it for the first time 2 days ago
actually so funny how do u not have more subs
Amazing album! Truly an experience
Just starting the review, the fact that we can have a clean full listen is so beautiful. S/o kendrick for taking away copyright claims and all that 🙏🏽
those first 20 seconds hit like a truck, subscribed
Just tryna watch a video about TPAB and my momma been dissed 40 times bro
i really love how most of the time for this album he was able to get what kendrick was trying to convey almost perfectly, having the lyrics up probably helped but i think having a level of looking past just the catchy melodies to see actually what is trying to be said is something that sadly is very overlooked now
🤣🤣 had to like because of the intro
😂enjoying this reaction in South Africa
I like this sassy British fella. He be weaving his pun and quips
Not British lol
i wonder which British accent you’ve heard
Oi bruv
As a German I bet 1mil on that he's German lmaooo
this is a very French accent ik he speaks French
This was amazing!!! Loved it thank you!! Almost loved it more the your mom 😮 🤔 (lol can’t wait for the next one you I subbed…oh know I’m a sub)
You're hilarious bro, subbed
