You know it’s heat when they run it back and Jcole hasn’t said a word
Lmaooo
Fr fr
Lmao fax
please keep writing comments its very usefull 😉
That bassline is give me same feeling as when Outkast Elevators drops.
I never understood the hate Cole Gets. The best of his generation by far. One of the greatest ever
2nd best* Kendrick the best
Can't say by far when Kendrick exists
unless you’re considering him a dif generation, kendrick is better without argument
y u n g b o i this is an opinion
y u n g b o i so is mine lol
There’s a Kobe reference also in the first verse... section “8”, more “2” guards, “4” u-hauls... 8 and 24 🐐✌🏾
Yooo
😳😳😳😳
Also Kobe player the shooting guard position
I have always been drawn to that part. No wonder why. Rest in Peace Kobe.
That’s a bit of a stretch but the bars are still fire
When Cole Said “I Slowly Peep . Jealously On His Breath Whenever He Spoke To Me 🔥🔥Like On The Low He Feeling That In My Shoes Is Where He Suppose to Be 🔥🔥🔥 “
George killing them tic tacs😂😂
Came in the comments just to see if I needed to say it or not 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I can't 😭😭😂😂😂
Broooooo. I'm South African and I kept asking myself "what is this man handling in a hurry" 😂
Brooo 😅
Don’t feel bad about stopping it man. We watch it for the commentary
Facts
Y'all my favorite commentary channel. Mostly because y'all give J. Cole the acknowledgment he deserves. I am from Fayetteville and I see what he does for my city with no fanfare. People say he is so fake but I think he's out here doing what he can with what he can. He is the reason why I decided to go to college for the first time in my 30's. Because anything's possible. Your life can change so much in one year. His music made me do more for my community. I want to be a better person. This is why he will always be one of my favorite rappers. My life changed after finding him as an artist. Salute to y'all!
2-6 Stand UPPP!!! Salute to you Queen! 👑
Dave Mustaine of rap trying to educate thru woopin some ass
From what I’ve seen (and reading the piece he recently wrote) the climb back is representative of him getting his inspiration and creativity back. He was sort of stuck for a while because he wasn’t “hungry” anymore he wasn’t trying to make it in the industry because he’s already done that. He’s made hits and he’s made meaningful tracks with a message so he felt as though he’s done all there is to do. This song and up coming project is him really proving his skill/growth and getting back into a creative space.(: he’s always needed a purpose to create music because as y’all said, he doesn’t make music for the sake of just making music. I recommend you guys read the piece he wrote called “The Audacity”
I need to read that
@@hezekiahbernadas1286 that’s a dude bro
Yehhhh you are right.
Really enjoy you guys' exposition, humor, & friendly chemistry. A real, refreshing channel; always look forward to the notifications.
some people really need to get out of the house and make some friends
1 1 We got friends. However, there’s eventually time for solitude & 2 vids a week won’t deter any of those relationships. These guys bring wisdom to a game that’s lacking it, so I also look forward to their shit. I’d rather watch these guys than the younger reaction channels who get brainwashed by the shit Lost in Vegas talk about. Hope you find peace.
0000
If anyone cares I’d appreciate if y’all would check my channel out. I talk about life, relationships, spiritually, current events etc. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED AND THANK YOU TO VON FOR THE WISDOM AND INSIGHT.
This Guy They're haters and very biased, watch more of their videos
Realllllyyy hoping for the No Pressure reactions
Faaaaacts
I was ‘bout to say the saaaamee thing
Deadass been waiting 🙏
yeahhh
It was pretty bad imo, really centered only for die-hard hardcore logic fans who enjoy his monotone 2-2 flow rhyming.
“Gotta know the ropes and the protocol or they gonna for sure blow your clothes half off like a promo code” (double entendre) “know the ropes and the pro to call” Cole is one of the greatest ever 🔥🐐
When it’s all said and done, they will mention Cole with Nas and Jay z
I once read that “j cole is like fine wine. The older he gets the betterrr he gets ...
Vintage.
The older the music gets the better it gets
Took yall long enough damn. We missed y'all
That "Do that mean GOD lost" and "My DOG lost" bar how he flipped GOD and DOG is crazy to me.
Love these channels cause I get so much out of them. The channel Itself then the insightful comments. Good ear fam
I never noticed that before and I was coming down to see if someone else caught it. That was CRAZY
Maybe that's where Eminem got Idea to diss snoop 😁😂
Some people are impressed by the simplest bars lmao. The fact that God spelled backwards is Dog is completely irrelevant to his bar. He didn’t “flip” the word in any way he just rhymed it.
@@captainuh-oh8355 It’s not the fact that it’s a simple bar, it’s the fact that there’s so many in almost each line. This song has a lot to pick apart so let people enjoy things and appreciate it
There is a lot reactors on KZhead that get by with antics but no one does it with the class and detail that this channel displays.
When J. Cole said "Nat Turner in my past life, Bob Marley in my last life back again" (song: Folgers Crystals) I felt that cause he was dead ass serious. He's one of the 🐏's reincarnated. Cole has literally taken on the Bob Marley energy just in the rap/hip-hop genre this time around. He's not hiding it either. He's even got the locs to fit the bill. This n*gga really been here before. 🤯😂
That's a tad bit creepy but actually an interesting way to describe J. Cole mate! *Greetings From The U.K.!*
Yoooo! I think this is the wildest description of an artist I've ever heard. Mostly because the more I think about it the more accurate it seems. You might be on to something. This lowkey blew my mind. 🤯🤯🤯 Cole is definitely a Goat for sure.
@@theralbreadballer 😂😂😂 I know right. I thought the same thing myself. Much Love from South Florida my guy!
@@selahhillmarley5631 Trust me it blew my mind as well when it dawned on me. When I first heard the line I didn't think much of it other than a cool thing to say but over time I started to see Cole evolve as a person and on top of that he started growing free form locs. Then once I heard the song again it just hit me like a ton of bricks, no innovation. 😂 This man was sent back here to try and save us. Naw but seriously Cole just has that GOAT ish in his aura now and he's taken on that Bob Marley enegry of trying to heal the black community through his music and ultimately the world. At least that's my take on it.
@@selahhillmarley5631 All Facts!!!
JOEY BADA$$ - THE LIGHT is fire!
Fr! They need to react to the three pack🔥
Yup, Joey was dope on all 3 tracks, can't wait to hear what his next full length sounds like! I wish they would give The Underachievers another chance too, they're so slept on imo

Sumthing bout j cole just hit diff I cant make mind into it but it just amazes me
I think it’s his understanding of how to change his cadence and flow to the tempo and overall sonic vibe of the beat. Even if there were no lyrics, the way he makes subtle adjustments in his flow, melody, and cadence in order to compliment the beat, makes his voice sound like an instrument and a natural extension of the beat. I remember being like 14 years old, and just listening to his voice flow over a beat, and being mesmerized by how, on that particular song, how consistent it was. His voice was so rhythmically consistent in tempo that it sounded like drum.
Andrew T Yeah I feel you on dat cause im still a youngin 14 I grew up around an environment where Old school rap was a big thing in my life yk so I listened to a lot of nas which is arguably the best lyricist ever cole twisted it up a little and made it to where he talks about reality and facts which fits my style and when does it he can do it in anyway possible he can sing it rap it or wtv his flow is something different he can perfect any flow possible which is really different from other rappers as of today
He seems very woke and enlightened...
Kamran Siddiqui He really is he looks at things into a different perspective
Melovine Little Secret: This song sounds PERFECT on 1.25x speed 👍
J cole still impresses me a year later. I've heard this song a 1000x and I always hear or understand new bars every time. The section 8 part. I didn't understand it under you broke it down and how much context that one line actually had. Love this channel. J cole is absolutely one of the greatest of our generations hands down no questions asked tbh.
This is coles best work, just continues to grow. I feel like being, surrounded by all those dreamville dudes (ehm ehm J.I.D) is gonna inspire you
Did y’all peep he added a word after every chorus. Until he got to saying Blue Moon bringing it full circle
Fam definitely check out Lion King On Ice. It’s an anthem with a message
Cool song but definitely not an anthem
@@kevink01639 for sure
Lmao ‘an anthem’
Mateo Nelson wym I personally like the flow
@@mateonelson3862 you think? lmao I think the flow is pretty fluid, very nice
I didn't know who J. Cole was until I saw his documentary a few years ago. He's one of the most brilliant artists in hip hop ever. I hope he continues--he's so much better than so many of the acts out there today.
The Climb Back is easily the best rap performance of the year so far . I'd say it's this and Royce's freestyle . This shit was hard . The beat , the hook , the bars , the content was on point. I haven't felt any of cole shit since 2014 if I'm being honest but this was crazy .
4 your eyez only is a classic even Kod
J cole is a true artist. Whether you like his music or not he always paints a picture through a song. Lyrics are just so relatable.
Cole is the GOAT
Drake and Cole
@@dashinazarov Drake 😂😂😂😂 Daniel son shits on Drake 100% and Daniel son doesn't even get any clout. Smh 🤦♂️
@@dashinazarov I'm not a hip hop head by any means, I'm a metalhead, so I'm no expert on all rappers in "the game". But I'm of the opinion that Drake is SUPER talented and his talent as a RAPPER is pushed under the rug while his more mainstream hiphop stuff is what he's known for by most people. that being said I don't think Drake is a contender for GOAT status. I might get some hate, but my top contenders are Cole, Kendrick, Em.
@@xDecadence - em is definitely one of the goats however Id say cole, kendrick and drake should all be considered for that title. drake has proved it with his rapping tracks. as you said he is known for his popular tracks for the mainstream but if you're his true fan you know he can rap bar for bar with anyone these days and there are tracks to prove it
I would give the goat title to Cole.....and to Kendrick and em and many others, I feel like I can’t give the title to 1 rapper
Logic “No Pressure” album reaction please.. this his last album so after this one you won’t hear from us anymore.. I found this channel through logics songs reactions hope y’all send him off with one last reaction
My exact thoughts man
Pedro Vera Sanchez same exact thought I had, lowkey we made this channel big
same i was gonna say something
Been here since the logicthon. We need this album reaction!
yeah been here since the logicthon so ofc i need this
When he starts the singing near the end about suicide prevention reminds me of Queen Latifah’s “Just another day in the neighborhood”
More smino please, he did a song called Baguetti ft JID
we need that
Baguetti slaps so damn hard too
Hurry up and buy by hardo ft jid goes hard too
Yep definitely need that one!
That song slaps
Exactly. Cole is not just making music, he adresses issues and tryna find solutions aswel.
Logics album really is meaningful and return to the roots you guys will love it!
This track is so beautiful, both musically and lyrically. Really glad to see you guys review and experience it
are you guys going to react to logics new album? or at least a few songs off of it? would love to see soul food 2!
5 hooks as well
Perfect too
Sonicboom2469 they’d hate perfect
Sonicboom2469 yea, they’d hate perfect. They’d judge it separately rather than looking at the song as a break or interlude between all the lyrical and serious songs
Oh I didn’t mean like perfect as it’s own video I was thinking they’d do like a album review which I hope they do. So they could get the full picture haha
React to some joints from new Logic album. Will not be disappointed.
The production was better than the lyrics
@@Kickinthescience nah, you tripping
Dale Rodrigues Even Logic fans know his all lives matter music his past few albums didn’t compare to his underground music
Kickinthescience if you want something to be reacted too it prob won’t. They don’t react to any popular songs or songs people like.
No no no whole album
The bro j.cole is actually trying to play for the NBA! 🔥
Y’all breakdowns are the absolute truth y’all need a show for real been waiting on this all week lol
Cole is one one right now..
He has been on one since 2018. Seeing someone continue to grow even later in their career is probably one of the most inspiring things ever.
@@konradhomiak3700 nah, The Warmup dropped in '09. Lol
@@Parasclepius hahahaha. But you have to admit Cole has been consistently improving since slightly before the release of KOD. He has sounded renewed and full of energy.
@@konradhomiak3700 I agree 100%.
I’ve been waiting for this reaction😭💯💯
I've waited for this since this came out! You all are the best ❤️
I saw this song when it dropped and I was more excited to see y’all’s reaction to it, and as always great reaction! Can’t wait to see what’s coming next!
Been waiting for this!! So excited to see what you guys have planned
Thank you.... I've been waiting on this since the song drop.. Much love LIV
Beeen waiting on this ever since I heard Cole dropped some new tracks! Keep buildin yall!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Loved this reaction!! You guys gave so much depth to the song!
I love you guys for breaking down the lyrics, i'm from México and some times some bars just go right above my head lmao, awesome work!! Looking forward for that new project that you guys are working on!
You guys are really the best reaction channel. Everyone else just points out the basic bars and really don't dive into the deeper meaning of the songs. Keep up the good work cant wait to see what you guys have in stored.
I’ve shared this video with three different people because it’s that good. This has been a very thorough and insightful breakdown of Cole’s song. Thanks for doing this, y’all! 🤙🏽
Welcome back, guys! I always love your takeaways on tracks. Cole is the truth! I’m excited to see what you two have been planning
Notification gang, y'all know we've been waiting for this one! hehehehe HERE WE GO!
*I’ve been waiting for your guys reaction to this! Jermaine absolutely bodied this as expected!* 🔥 #FreeThinker 💭
Gentlemen you deserve a channel on a bigger platform... Not only do I enjoy you guys breaking down lyrics, but your thought process as well, makes your maturity and personalities so vivid!
Happy af that you guys clarified a bit on the absence, and knowing that it’s big things coming and evolving makes me glad, and I’m sure the fans too. &’ yooo this Cole track sounded like he put everything into this. How he’s clearly getting these point out with bars and an insanely intricate flow and cadence .. this shit was beautiful and needed. Favorite song by him in a minute
I need that new logic album reaction I’ve been watching since the logic marathon u guys did like 3 years ago.
Congrats guys, you guys seem like some good dudes. Respect the reactions and channel!
Idk what slaps more George on those tic tacs or the track.
George lol
Been Waiting Thanks Guys
This the reaction I’ve been waiting for 💯
Can we get a no pressure album reaction one last time for the rattpack? Last album ever!
Is it worth it to have. A homicide prevention hotline? Since we already have a suicide prevention hotline, wouldn’t it be helpful to have another one but for a different purpose???== kzhead.info/sun/fLaOY7awgYlqhI0/bejne.html
the level that this channel takes music to is underappreciated. The most in-depth analysis you're ever going to come across on KZhead are found right here. Thank you for exploring music the way you guys do it makes the music much better for those of us who cannot understand it. However I would like to say that you guys have elevated my mindset so I can do this on my own. I still come right back here though just to be a part of the community.
Yall are legends of your craft. Cant wait for whats next
Despite whatever one else will say, just know that I missed ya. Low key my favorite channel so far, been riding with you guys since logic soul foods. I do feel that flow though for the chorus sounds like it's from, Where ya at by Future.
Congrats on the 1 million subs guys!! The best reactors on KZhead hands down
I been waiting guys!!!! Thank you
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! Missed you guys! Shoutouts from UK
HIT THAT BUTTON FAR TO QUICK!! BEEN WAITING FOR THE GOATS TOO REVIEW THE GOAT
Agree with u dudes once again great breakdown/analysis..id like to just add that that beat tho🔥J Cole produced🔥His production on this one is as sturdy as his flow n pen. Looking forward to the next chapter n phase for Lost in Vegas. #freethinker4life
I love your analysis guys. helping me understand and appreciate these songs even more
always love hearing your thoughtful perspective when breaking down the lyrics.. love your chemistry together and love the channel. Wishing you all the best with your future endeavors !!
I neeeed an album review to the fall off when it comes out.
I like that pfp
Cmon guys I was just about to go to sleep and you uploaded this, now I gotta watch 😂😂
These are my favorite type of videos from y’all. Thanks guys!
your guys reactions are truly dope. You guys are true mind openers
This honestly is probably one of the best reaction breakdown videos i have ever seen
The Lost in Vegas hip hop climb back haha. Glad you guys are back!
You guys upgrading! That’s why you guys are my favorite reactors
This was worth the wait. Whenever one of the Big 3 drop, I always wait for your reviews/reaction . Thanks for giving us the meaning behind these bars. Much love from Mike Angora ,Cape Town.
I checked your channel everyday since the song was released just to watch this reaction!!!
Being able to simplify enough for everyone to understand but still have that complexity is much better than going over the listeners head. I honestly believe it takes more skill to do that, this guy is incredible.
This is why I laugh when people say "Cole is basic" or "he's not deep"... The intent/content behind Cole's lyrics is what makes him a deep thinker. He doesn't have to use a bunch of ivy league words to say something profound(that's why he's great). That only appeals to the intelligent snobs who feel others are beneath them. It would be nice if people used their brain & realized there's more than one way to get your point across.
Missed you guys! Love from Kansas City Missouri
Damn I’ve been waiting for this. Glad to see you guys back.
Let me introduce you to me. I'm a simple man. Not from the streets. I see Lost in Vegas combined with J. Cole. I instantly click like. I also want to see them react to Muse - Knights of Cydonia, so I can do the same with every Muse video that follows. Come on guys! I joined Patreon in the hope of at least seeing a Muse video on there!
Making us sweat it out over here! Been refreshing every hour!
Love the way in which you guys dissect all of the bars, as a lover of hip hop it's refreshing to see others who love the game as much as me❤
Man!!!! Im glad you guys are back. Awsome breakdown of the song. Can't wait for more reviews.
best song of 2020 to me, I think the Alliteration he uses to start the song is fire, the hardest line to me is “Trash rappers ass backwards trying to go toe to toe” that’s fire, and my favorite scheme (And this song is full of schemes, hardest scheme is the pole scheme where he says “staff strapped on top the totem pole and blast at you” which he caps with the bass masters bar) but my favorite among all his scheming is the clothes scheme where he adds a diamond/gold making scheme to it and ends it with “they foldin under pressure but u know what coal/cole do, making diamonds they just rhyming, me I’m quoting gold.” That’s so hard, and crazy thing is the rest of the song is just as good! I’ve heard the Gofer Mine bar, don’t quote me but I thInk Eminem uses almost the same exact bar put the same way in Dre’s Medicine Man, if not for that it’d be a perfect song to me and even not liking that bar it’s as close to a perfect song as I’ve heard in a long time
Man... I’m not ready for Cole to retire. But I’ll be damned if he doesn’t deserve a good ass retirement. And JID is new, but I don’t know if the mans young enough to run the game for long. As much as he looks 18, he’s 30😂
I don t think that he will really retire
Love y’all guys take on coles music, much love 🙏🏻
Thank you guys for taking the time to react to this masterpiece. I am here to stay and whateva you guys got going on I'm with it.
"brothers" is ur best placement for the word! lmao
The chorus got that “Where ya at?” by Future cadence
You guys are FINALLY BACK we miss you man. All the way from the DR 💪🏾💪🏾
finally..you guys give the best breakdowns and reviews.. been waiting on y'all for a long time
Your channel is gonna blow up when you do these hip hop reactions that are missed heavily 🔥🔥
I was so sick of all these other wack ass reactions, finaally guys. Keep up the good work we appreciate you guys
Finally you guys are back! I missed this kind of videos, it's really chill to hear your opinion and analysis
Glad to see u guys back
Do “No Pressure” by Logic, whole album!!
We already know that we’re boutta get that no pressure retirement album
Really a fan of their insight and knowledge of rap history and culture. One of my favorite music reaction channels
Been waiting for this one!
