One thing about this album is that Danny actually spent so much on it between samples, features, etc. that it put him into debt. This album didn’t sell much when it came out due to how weird it is but has gradually become a cult classic. I do think it speaks volumes to Danny as an artist that he was even willing to put this project out knowing he would likely not make his money back.
Every time I recommend this album to someone, I describe it as being in a dark room, on every type of drug, and sweating in a nightmare. Truly one of the best and darkest albums in hip hop 👌🏼
I've done this and once got the response "But why would anyone willingly want to experience that." Made me take a step back and think lol. Humans are interesting.
@@humblehobbit hahahaha same. My response would be “well I’m never going to even get close to these experiences, so why not experience it through music”
@@humblehobbit To that I'd say it's worth it because you can really take something from experiencing something like this, it can compel you. It's profound human expression.
Respect to Danny Brown for this one, he said he spent like $70k on samples and even though the album was acclaimed it wasn't some big mainstream album and he had to be careful over the next few years to recoup his losses. Another fun fact: the Ain't it Funny video is directed by Jonah Hill
Honestly I feel like so many people would be easily turned away from Danny because of his voice/delivery. I know I was at first. Once you get over that and it grows on you, Danny really is one of the most unique and standout rappers ever. Love this guy's music so much.
Right now I don't have an appreciation for it but hopefully at some stage in the future I will, after all I didn't like how Wesley's theory sounded and now I think its one of kendricks best songs
First heard Danny featured on a Gorillaz song in 2017 and thought his voice was strange, checked him out a few years later and now he's one of my favorite rappers.
I really like your approach when it comes to checking the Genius annotations, using them to pick up details you weren't aware of but not letting someone else's interpretations or assumptions overrule your own thoughts.
yeah but he also misses out on a ton of stuff. not interpretations but just stuff that is just stating facts. it helps when theres stuff about the culture he doesn't know
59:00 just to answer your worries, danny is in fact okay as far as we know lol his next album after this is way more positive and chilled because he seems to have gotten his life in order. he also has a podcast now, its pretty funny
@@smokedoutvillain When I say “at his worst” I mean he was at his worst mentally. Not saying the music was bad. I think Uknowwhatimsayin? Was a solid album.
The music video for Ain't it Funny really captures what you talked about during White Lines where people are getting enjoyment out of another person's suffering. Definitely worth watching.
It seems like you didn’t notice, but the sample on when it rain is from real by Freddie Gibbs, produced by madlib, which is on piñata, an album Danny brown shows up on.
Danny has been sober so a while. He's doing much better than he was during the time of this album. He has a podcast called The Danny Brown Show where he has mentioned these things. Great show.
i rlly hope ull give BROCKHAMPTON a shot someday too! and if ure interested in more experimental stuff i def recommend Arca! her kick series is amazing
One of my absolute favorite albums of all time. The song Get hi is especially scary to me. it sounds very serene and somber and euphoric and thats so scary to me. He's rock bottom. He's absolutely high. Something bad happens? Smoke some shit. Stub your toe? Smoke some stuff. Its just so heartbreaking and scary. So glad you loved it
Amazing album. This is one of those albums that changed how I looked at hip hop. It’s the post punk album of hip hop. It’s the industrial album of hip hop. This album understood me in a way few albums have. “Can’t make it out up out the gutter” And “Feelin like I’m not alive, but I know I’m not dead.” Are two of my fav lines. That song hit me hard. As a person who’s dealt with copious drug abuse and addiction as well as depression, lonliness and anxiety, this shit hit hard.
When It Rain is also a reference to Detroit techno; where techno originated. "They don't do it like this no more" nobody makes old school Detroit techno songs, which the beat of the song is very inspired by. Song is basically an ode to Detroit sound and life.
would love a reaction to some of the music videos from this album. the videos for when it rain, lost, and ESPECIALLY aint it funny are some of my all time favorites
Bob knowing that Akira is an anime movie, and this distracting him enough making him not understand Asa Akira is just a pornstar is sending me Edit: Danny is very much an underground artist despite the quality of his releases, his skill eclipses his popularity. Even as well respected as this album is, it would be mostly unheard without great reception and recommendation from online critics like Fantano
Hey Bob- really enjoyed your review/reaction. I was going to subscribe based on your AE thoughts, but when you dropped the sick Bill Hicks reference in I was committed. In the case of both artists I seldom meet even hip hop heads that appreciate or even know of either. My first real experience with Danny was with Atrocity and it was one of those iconic moments for a listener. I bought the cd while on a long road trip one Saturday night and it was just such a singular experience. It totally captured me upon my very first listen. I knew I'd found something special. It speaks to me very deeply, despite never using drugs. But there's other demons that will fill the gap too. Really enjoyed your thoughts and look forward to more.
I thought Tell Me What i Dont Know was a feature aswell for the longest time. Then one day i realized it actually sounds like Danny and was blown away when i found it was.
You have singlehandedly made me appreciate lyrics so much more. I am generally one to gloss over lyrics, but seeing you react to them in real time has made me realise how much I'm missing by ignoring them
Tbh, I really was not into this album on first listen. And I didn't want to listen again but then I heard it after everyone started to say about how good this album is.......and now....this album is literally in my top 3. I think this is the kind of album you will appreciate more as you hear it repeatedly. The production is so unique.
most experimental albums are like that madvillainy, some rap songs for example, for me they were hard listens but after a couple of plays they are in my top 5 albums of all time
Same. But even on my very mixed first listen, I was still very conscious of the “what IS this?” thoughts that going through my head. I don’t think it’s top 3 rap or anything, but I still think it’s pretty great. Probably in my top 30 or 40. It was my 18th favourite rap album of the 2010s
I finally just listened to this album and I WAS also caught off guard by Danny's voice on 'Tell me what I don't know' I thought it was Ab-soul or schoolboy q, even tho i have heard danny rapping in a normal inflection on xxx This album also feels like watching an episode of Bojack Horseman going on a drug bender and we the listeners are just watching Danny on this long bender throughout the album The beats really portray the really dark atmosphere but it still has this cartoony zany quirkiness to it, so as Danny's voice, the lyrics are dark but his high pitch yuppy vocal inflection make it sound kinda like a cartoon character
Don’t think that your content is bad because of that silence. I enjoy watching your videos just raw and uncut because it feels like you are just being you. Love your content!
Crazy how I look forward to these reactions more than I look forward to like episodes of some of my favorite shows dropping. Don’t really feel that for any other TH-cam channel.
lmfaooo I love how you never click the annotations because you think they'll be stupid, but then the ones you skip are good and the ones you relent and click are the bottom of the barrel cruel fate
ive been waiting for you to react to this for so long and it definitely paid off, hell for it is also my favorite. this album is one of my all time favorites, just the instrumental choices alone are so unique and on top of that he has that relentless flow. although i dont do drugs or anything i deeply relate to the sentiments of this album i used to listen it 3 times a day and to this day i still find small details in the production. every song has such a rich texture. when i first heard the album golddust also threw me off but thats because the song was so challenging, most of this album was so challenging in terms of production. golddust specifically tho has such a post punk-y vibe and his flow is just insane. he dabbles in all sort of genres in this album. there is no other album that sounds like this because danny pulled inspirations from everywhere(and thus the sound is not easy to replicate) and he made it work, im baffled how he does it. From the ground also felt out of place for me on the first listen but its just one of those moments where danny pulls back and gives the listener a break from this hell ride, same thing with get hi. most importantly tho, this doesnt feel like he wants people to pity him and its a genuine cry for help. When xxx came out and he popped off people (mostly)werent listening to him and his struggles they were just dancing to it. it was a party album for them and since he gathered a fanbase like that his next album old went more into a party direction, less introspective and personal songs and more party anthems. so this is him bluntly telling his listeners he is in pain fully aware that most of his mainstream listeners will be turned off by this, the ones that want the comfort of the high but arent willing to stick around for the low after the party is over. the opener doesnt even sound like a hip hop song, it sounds like a weird underground psychedelic punk song. sometimes i put the album on and look at the sound waves for every track and i found a lot small detail through that, for example on when it rain around 2:37 the drums build up on the left speaker while they fades out on the right. i cant even begin to talk about the lyrics, they are so funny disturbing witty and subtle i cant wrap my mind around it. he rides on the beats so smoothly. i could just talk about this album for hours but ill leave u alone now bob:)
Hell for it is one of my favourite sample ever. It's so unexpected but I recognized it, it's from the jrpg persona 4 Knowing Danny Brown is a huge persona fan it makes sense, it's a sample from the track "who's there?" from the persona 4 ost. My favorite game ever and the soundtrack is definitely worth listening to
At first listen when someone recommended this to me (and dannys music in general) i was so off put by his voice but man on the next few relistens it really becomes super iconic.. one of my favs of all time
One of the best albums ever made, and the featured artists Petite Noir and Kelela are amazing too. Danny Brown is also featured on Petite Noir’s album La Maison Noir which is a great album, and Kelela’s R&B album Take Me Apart album is another Top 5 album ever made imo. The song might be one of the calmer ones on the album (amazing though) but Kelela has a really innovative style too with experimental elements. Take Me Apart is one of the most essential R&B albums for you to hear
@@dylangrieb5986 i just feel like there’s a lot of albums you know. think about how many experimental jazz records have shaped modern music. so many genres. there’s a lot of music in the world, and there’s been a lot of music in the past few millennia
You should check out the 8 episode web series he did called "Danny's House" He brings on rappers and comedians to talk about music, ghosts, aliens, the robot apocalypse and more, it's hilarious.
how great would it be to have Bob on the Danny Brown show as his first guest or or ! maybe Danny Brown on the additional thoughts/conversations w the community
I'm commenting into early because I'm always so full of anxiety but the name of the album, "Atrocity Exhibition", is a reference to a Joy Division song, if you haven't figured it out. By the way, just started seeing the vid, but I'm interested into seeing your reaction to "Ain't it Funny" because I relate to that song a lot.
I actually really like the lyric breakdown, because english is not my first language and I still struggle a bit understanding everything, even though I'm a fluent speaker. Also, you said you liked loud experimental stuff, but was iffy on the quieter experimental music and my first thought was either "He's either going to love or absolutely hate CLPPNG", lol
The first point of the production is to convey these various inebriated states, but the second is to show Danny can flow over beats that literally no one else can.
Danny has another album after this, called "uknowhatimsayin¿", from 2019, and I think after XXX, Old and AE this album is almost like a victory lap of sorts, i think you would enjoy it. Also, you keep bringing up Danny's collab with JPEG, so... LP soon maybe?
One thing about this album is that Danny actually spent so much on it between samples, features, etc. that it put him into debt. This album didn’t sell much when it came out due to how weird it is but has gradually become a cult classic. I do think it speaks volumes to Danny as an artist that he was even willing to put this project out knowing he would likely not make his money back.
Very true
I hope he recouped the money with shows
@@Shuffffff Danny Brown Show best thing that happend this year
@@Artyushka I... agree.
That and pusha dropping
The Record of this album is only like $25. Everyone buy one and help him out lol
Every time I recommend this album to someone, I describe it as being in a dark room, on every type of drug, and sweating in a nightmare. Truly one of the best and darkest albums in hip hop 👌🏼
I've done this and once got the response "But why would anyone willingly want to experience that." Made me take a step back and think lol. Humans are interesting.

@@humblehobbit To that I'd say it's worth it because you can really take something from experiencing something like this, it can compel you. It's profound human expression.
I describe it as the upside down (from stranger things yk) of the partylife
@@humblehobbit because I wanna *feel*. Not to mention talking and production are top notch.
Respect to Danny Brown for this one, he said he spent like $70k on samples and even though the album was acclaimed it wasn't some big mainstream album and he had to be careful over the next few years to recoup his losses. Another fun fact: the Ain't it Funny video is directed by Jonah Hill
70k is good asf now for that Kendrick sample
Yet another fun fact: The guy who played the kid in the ain't it funny music video went on to become a disney star.
Ain’t it funny and When it rain are some of the best songs my ears have ever heard, its honestly mindblowing
The two stand outs in a stand out album
When it rain is the most unhinged rap song i've heard its so crazy
Danny Brown is what Richard Pryor would sound like as a rapper in 2020.
The word "masterpiece" was created for songs like those 2
There is just something special about Bob's intros 😂😂😂
😁
the fact Earl kept the same rhyme scheme throughout the whole verse and matched the energy of everyone else involved...
Honestly I feel like so many people would be easily turned away from Danny because of his voice/delivery. I know I was at first. Once you get over that and it grows on you, Danny really is one of the most unique and standout rappers ever. Love this guy's music so much.
Right now I don't have an appreciation for it but hopefully at some stage in the future I will, after all I didn't like how Wesley's theory sounded and now I think its one of kendricks best songs
I feel this for Kendrick too, crazy how TPAB and this album became my two favorite albums till this day 😭
First heard Danny featured on a Gorillaz song in 2017 and thought his voice was strange, checked him out a few years later and now he's one of my favorite rappers.
Now that it's grown in you Listen to Zelooperz. He's on Danny's label and clearly was inspired by him.
I think his delivery is amazing. Like... he's so insanely fast sometimes, he reminds me of some speed metal guitar solo
I really like your approach when it comes to checking the Genius annotations, using them to pick up details you weren't aware of but not letting someone else's interpretations or assumptions overrule your own thoughts.
yeah but he also misses out on a ton of stuff. not interpretations but just stuff that is just stating facts. it helps when theres stuff about the culture he doesn't know
@@1deron1 nah I think its better, genius annotations are whack and can force one view of a lyric when the artist may have had many views
It is just a helpful tool when you have no clue at all what something means
I try to do that, but it's tough. Like others have mentioned, I sometimes miss things that are important to understand.
Danny spent over 100k on sampling for this album. Almost went bankrupt.
He took a crazy risk and created a masterpiece
Legendary imo
@@bobthepoppop Definitely
Worth it, now the album is top 50 of all time and who knows how much it sold now
So worth it, you can tell this album was really important to him
7:55 "There's really nothing to enjoy, but it's also very enjoyable"
This is the best description of addiction I've ever heard.
You inspire me to listen to all these albums. Thanks bob. Let’s see how this one goes
Man you are in for a ride.
Bro this album is a masterpiece, you gotta listen to it. One of the best hip hop albums ever.
You have a death grips pfp, you’ll be fine
if you are a death grips fan, youll adore danny
How have you not listened to this as a DG fan
59:00 just to answer your worries, danny is in fact okay as far as we know lol his next album after this is way more positive and chilled because he seems to have gotten his life in order. he also has a podcast now, its pretty funny
I’m pretty sure I remember Danny saying he was at his worst when making “uknowwhatimsayin?”
Good good :)
@@mysaintlaurent566 there’s no such thing as a bad danny brown album
@@smokedoutvillain When I say “at his worst” I mean he was at his worst mentally. Not saying the music was bad. I think Uknowwhatimsayin? Was a solid album.
@@mysaintlaurent566yup he said it twice once with fantano and the other time in his podcast
I’ve been waiting for this day for 8 months. Im so happy for this reaction 😁
lol, happy to finally get to it
Yeah, XXX outro is absolutely insane. Always dope when Bob appreciates some of my favorite songs specifically.
The greatest album in hip hop imo. Just the essence of lightning in a bottle with it’s ability to transport you both audibly and lyrically.
Lightning in a bottle is exactly what I thought
The music video for Ain't it Funny really captures what you talked about during White Lines where people are getting enjoyment out of another person's suffering. Definitely worth watching.
Directed by Jonah Hill!

atrocity exhibiton is such a good album, pretty hyped to see what you end up thinking of it considering it has a lot of rock influences
One of my absolute favorite albums of all time. The song Get hi is especially scary to me. it sounds very serene and somber and euphoric and thats so scary to me. He's rock bottom. He's absolutely high. Something bad happens? Smoke some shit. Stub your toe? Smoke some stuff. Its just so heartbreaking and scary. So glad you loved it
YES YOU FINALLY REACTED IT!! One of my favorite hip hop albums of all time
A SATURATION trilogy reaction by BROCKHAMPTON would be just amazing.
Btw, keep up the great stuff, by far the best reaction channel.
Second this heavy
Yeah, I need to work in some Brock
I third this
I fourth this
I Fifth This

Greatest album of all time finally
White Lines is so cinematic!! One of my favs for sure!!!!
Lmao the intro is fantastic happy Friday fellow bob the poppop viewers-my favorite day of the week, really excited for this one!!!!!!

Edit: Danny is very much an underground artist despite the quality of his releases, his skill eclipses his popularity. Even as well respected as this album is, it would be mostly unheard without great reception and recommendation from online critics like Fantano
Casual viewer here, but I’ve been waiting for this reaction man! I absolutely knew you would love this album, one of my all time favorites!
i fw the personal touch you give to all of your reactions, keep it up!
Yes finally!!! I’ve been looking forward to this for a year now. One of my favorite albums of all time

The beats really portray the really dark atmosphere but it still has this cartoony zany quirkiness to it, so as Danny's voice, the lyrics are dark but his high pitch yuppy vocal inflection make it sound kinda like a cartoon character
Fuck yeah I was waiting for this! Great video, great reaction
This is gonna be an interesting reaction.
Also today's my birthday Bob!
The word play with House Party, Kid & Play, Fade is magical
Sometimes i just refresh bobs page over and over around the time that he uploads
Have to listen to the new J.i.d. album. It's incredible and an album of the year contender. He's such a great rapper.
The music video for ain't it funny is also amazing
glad you liked Hell For It just as much as I did. really underrated song from Danny
if you want to check out more alchemist, try boldy james. very good lyrical stuff.
It’s not alchemist but Manger on Mchnicols would be amazing
Don't forget the price of tea in China. That tape is hard asf too
Great review as usual!I recommend watching the Aint it funny music video it’s a haunting song and makes the song better in my opinion.
you have one of the best reaction channels on youtube for music. keep it up man!
Don’t think that your content is bad because of that silence. I enjoy watching your videos just raw and uncut because it feels like you are just being you. Love your content!
one of my favorite albums of all time
This is one of my favorite hip hop albums, I am glad you finally listened to this one!
That’s the Detroit tempo on When it Rain - Danny said in an interview that the Detroit heartbeat is 140
Crazy how I look forward to these reactions more than I look forward to like episodes of some of my favorite shows dropping. Don’t really feel that for any other TH-cam channel.
One of the best albums of all time, and I’m not even that huge on hip hop or rap

Hey Bob Danny has his own weekly podcast called the Danny brown show on YMH studios TH-cam channel. You should check it out
What a great video would love for you to see the difference in his most recent album uknowwhatimsayin he is definitely in a different place now
i've been waiting for this since i first found this channel
Been waiting on this one for months, let’s go!
this is perhaps one of the darkest hiphop albums ever made
please listen to The Cold Vein, you dont have to record it, i just think you'll love it
FINALLY ATROCITY EXHIBITION! Thank you! One of my earliest requests!
I love this album so much, so happy you reacted to it!
Hope you get to do Brockhampton albums this year

@@BIGAMBERFAN yeah across all genres imo, i don’t see any argument against that. (For both Atrocity Exhibition and Kelela’s Take Me Apart)
@@dylangrieb5986 i just feel like there’s a lot of albums you know. think about how many experimental jazz records have shaped modern music. so many genres. there’s a lot of music in the world, and there’s been a lot of music in the past few millennia

GODDAMN I can't wait for the Additional thoughts already lol
DUDE CALVIN IN HOBBES IS MY FAV THING EVER THAT NOBODY EVER KNOWS ABOUT YOU NOW MY FAVORITE TH-camR
I BEEN WAITING WO0O0O0 !!! !! ! !
The first point of the production is to convey these various inebriated states, but the second is to show Danny can flow over beats that literally no one else can.
lets fucking goooooo this is the review i’ve been waiting for
that last track and From the Ground are Two of my favorites

Danny browns album from 2 years ago "uknowwhatimsayin" is a great album and has a song produced by peggy 🤷🏽♂️
Danny has another album after this, called "uknowhatimsayin¿", from 2019, and I think after XXX, Old and AE this album is almost like a victory lap of sorts, i think you would enjoy it.
Also, you keep bringing up Danny's collab with JPEG, so... LP soon maybe?
I’m pretty sure he’s doing LP in a week or two
@@stratford1 do you know if he’s talked about or knows about ep1 and ep2?
