I think I had the music audio a tad too low, but oh well. Life goes on.

Man you should do his song “Only one” it’s a single but I’d love to see you reacting to it 🙏🏾

You should make a video telling people to join patreon if they want to see Jay Z.

I would love to see you react to Kanye’s single Only One, it’s often missed by people. It came out between Yeezus and The Life of Pablo, so makes sense for where you’re at in his discography. Kanye did a few songs with Paul McCartney and this is one of them. It’s sung from the perspective of Donda looking down on Kanye from heaven

Lil Mac

Another good reaction, only thing I'll add is like another comment said it might be worth listening to Cruel Summer, a collaborative album released the year after this (and year before Yeezus) it may not be necessary to give it a video since many don't consider it a "core" part of Kanye's discography, but the album is an important milestone in Kanye's sound and there are a few hits I think you'll really enjoy, if you don't want to dedicate a Kanye month to it like his other albums it might be worth it to just make May a double Kanye month (Cruel Summer + The Life of Pablo, one of my favorites btw)

I agree, Cruel Summer was the first step towards that Yeezus sound

I would love to see a reaction to Only One. It will probably get a lot of views too. Because of how beautiful it is. One of my favourite songs.

Regarding Jay reactions i'd skip to Blueprint if doing it in order as albums between RD and Blueprint are pretty mid and dated. Don't get me wrong, i'd definitely recommend listening to them in your free time or coming back around but minus a few good songs on each, you're not missing much. Also if you want to hear more Jay-Z and No ID (Kanye's original mentor btw), then a perfect record would be Jay-Z 4:44. I think you'd really enjoy it as entirely produced by No ID, a much more personal record from Jay and even a cheeky Nina Simone sample for a bonus point

Great stuff Bob! You are really good at this. I like your balance of music and lyric appreciation, and your curiosity to understand what is happening for the artist. This phenomenon of watching someone else experience an artist's work, particularly when it is something that has already lodged a special place in my psyche, is so f-ing satisfying! Maybe its partly validating my own appreciation. Kanye's body of work is special, to alot of people, and going deeper into it with someone like you (or into an in-depth analysis like the Dissect podcast) is like manna from heaven. Keep going Bob! I am happy to be along for the ride. There is so much more goodness coming...

He plans to listen to Blueprint, The Black Album, and 4:44, in that order.

Here is the official video if you want to do a reaction. I think you should do it. People want to see it. It is pretty special. The video adds to the emotion. https://youtu.be/WibQR0tQ0P8

Lex Luger is one of my favorite producers. He helped in defining that Trap Music sound. What he did on HAM is amazing. Great Reaction!!

I expect Bob will do Flockaveki one day. If you want loud and agressive. There it is.

How dare you act like you don’t know the viral sensation Eli Porter from 14 years ago?!? https://youtu.be/tKKxPtP6XjQ Don’t worry this is not something you would ever react to on an album.

btw MBDTF was recieved with instant commercial and critical acclaim

Part of me would squeeze in American Gangster in there (might be my fave Jay album) but I understand if it has to be cut out.

You mentioned loving Frank Oceans work. I really enjoyed your reaction to Blonde, wondering if Channel Orange was on your radar.

You should absolutely do “cruel summer” by GOOD music. It’s a collab album but another one of Kanyes masterpieces. Im almost positive you’ll love it

If you loved this Collab, you have to listen to Cruel Summer 100%
