Take a break if you need to, man. The effort you put into this channel is absolutely unprecedented. Just know that people *do* see the work you put into it, and you are no doubt fostering a loyal audience by doing so.
@@rileyneupauer3993 Imperial is fantastic, but the narative in Taboo really skyrockets it above imperial. Denzel really spitting some REAL shit on that album
Hey man, about the format of your reactions, dont sweat it and just be you. I was introduced to you in your TPAB reaction, and ngl I was reallllly annoyed in the beginning half of the video because you weren't paying as much attention to the lyrics. But throughout the video your way of reacting already started growing on me and by the end I learned new things of an album I have adored for years and listened to countless times. Since then I've watched a lot more of your vids and I completely fuck with you and your format. Focusing on the instrumentals and the interaction between vocals and instrumentals is your thing and it shows how knowledgeable you are. Don't change, you're an amazing youtuber and to me already indispensable in the hip hop YT reaction game (: Great video again. Also, Denzel Curry did an amaaaazing Bulls on Parade cover, its on yt and only a few minutes long so I really recommend you to check it out in your spare time! (hope the ads wont fuck u over lmao). Have a good one fam
This album was recorded mixed and mastered in 2 days. Absolutely insane. One of my favorite rap albums of all time. Old school vintage boom bap that feels fresh and vocals that make you wanna fight somebody
Man its so refreshing to see someone listen to purely the music and really not focus on the lyrics as much, I listen to hip hop a lot and rarely focus on the lyrics and just listen to how it sounds, great reaction too
@@mercurialno6 yeah honestly mate, I like your style of reaction because you react to the rawness of the music. I like analysing lyrics but if I wanted to get a lyrics reaction I can go elsewhere, you're good with the pure music of it and you're an enjoyable guy to listen to as well. If you need a break go for it 100%, take care of yourself it's a difficult time. Also I think you would enjoy the album Taboo by Denzel Curry, AND Kenny Beats has a show that you should check out in your spare time called In The Cave where he gets on artists and just makes a song from scratch in the studio, some really interesting stuff has come out of it.
It’s interesting looking through a producer eyes of music and I sorta kinda realized the genius of it. I always listen to the lyric but appreciate the production. But focusing on that production over lyrics made me appreciate the album a lot more honestly by watch your reaction. (Also seeing his comment)
@@mercurialno6 if you like hip hop albums that really favour the production i suggest you check out Cherry Bomb by Tyler the Creator (same guy as IGOR) Its my personal fave of all time and its production is fucking insane and so versatile
Your channel is perfect. There was definitely a hole missing in the music reaction community and you fill it perfectly with your spontaneity. No matter what the analytics say or whatever numbers you look at, as long as your channel exists it's never failing. Take all the time you need.
I LOVE the passion oh my god, Denzel and Kenny really made something here, and so many people appreciate Denzel over Kenny when they've worked in perfect synergy to create this. It's so unique and refreshing, and your reaction is SO good to see. Thank you for sharing this :)
I actually enjoy this type of reaction to the people who stop the track to explain lyrics, not that the other is bad. But this feels like I’m listening to music with someone in a long car ride,
@@danyl123 he said in an interview that he freestyles everything since zuu because he feels like he can get his emotion across better by just saying what he wants too say in the moment.
@@danyl123 on one hand its pretty fucking sick that he can make such good music by only freestyling but on the other I realy Wanna know what an album he can make when he actually writes his stuff beforehand because he's actually such a good lyricists (Taboo was still completely written and I still think that's his best album)
Since I left You by the Avalanches is a must listen. One of the greatest electronic albums ever. It was made entirely out of thousands of samples! Can’t recommend enough
Denzel is one of the most consistent rappers out there, he doesn’t have a bad album and is constantly looking to improve and experiment. Though from a production sound point, this was my favourite album of his
First video I've seen of yours because this is one of my favourite albums. I like the way you listen with no pause. When im listening to tunes with my mates in the car and they turn it down to talk about a line I hate it. Defo subbing
I come back to this reaction for the sole purpose that the energy you bring matches how I am when I listen to it. I think unlocked is one of my favorite albums from any artist. It just has a way of making you focus but feeling lost at the same time. The whole album makes you float. I love these videos and I’m glad you do what you do. Your editing is top notch and no one else does it like you🔥
I love how you just do your thing, not like any other channel out there. It's very clear you are musically atuned, staying concious of every element. Without doubt I'll be telling my friends about your channel, you deserve a lot more recognition with your thing. Peace
This video made me want to subscribe. Your unfiltered reaction to the music is so relatable. Don’t sweat it dude. I felt the same way listening to this album and that’s the kind of genuine response I want to see in an album review. Thanks for being you.
I've watched a lot of reaction videos/channels and you are easily my favorite now. I haven't even commented on a video in my life until now. Just had to tell you how good this was. Keep it up!
I really love this video! You really stand out among other reaction channels with your energy and attention to details that many others would miss. I love watching your first experiences of artists that I love! Keep it up!
such an amazing album i’m so glad u reacted to this, one of my favorites from this year amazing video as always mr mercurial, keep putting smiles on people’s faces :)
I really enjoy this channel so much, really makes me wonder why you aren't more prevalent on RU-vid considering the energy alone that you bring to every reaction. Keep up the good work and much love
You've earned a sub from me, this is how music should be consumed. When I get back from travelling I'm deffo getting a record player to experience some classic vinyls like this one
This is my first time coming across your videos and I love the energy you bring to the video! I'd say if you liked the cover art and the music too you should check out the animated short on RU-vid that goes with the album.
You're definitely one of my favorite reaction channels on RU-vid right now! Super high quality and fun, it feels like I'm in the room listening with you. Please don't change up the format too much. Based on the rest of the comments, a lot of people agree w/ me!
Unlocked was one of my favorite rap albums of the year! Kenny Beats live-streams his studio sessions on Twitch. He’s been very informative to a new producers such as myself. He’s been a major influence on me and got me into producing during quarantine. Great vid! Subbed
Greetings from Brazil. I LOVE UNLOCKED, so glad you did a reaction of it. I think you would like these: - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - A Moon Shaped Pool - Blonde
ey yo, your first listen of this album perfectly captured my first listen. UNLOCKED is in my top 5 albums personally, and I'm happy seeing you enjoy it. Great vid bro, you got a new sub in me 👍
I love the way you react to the music, don't ever feel like you have to calm down at all, it's a listening style that I really dig and appreciate. Keep it up bro!
Refreshing to see someone analyse an album in this way. We get to listen through it and enjoy it with you. Too many people out here pausing tracks to share there opinion and in turn messing the flow up for the viewers and themselves. One of my favourite albums too so this was enjoyed. Keep it up man 👊
I just stumbled across this video in my recommended at 2:30am, and I love it, I love you, this video is amazing, I look forward to binging all your videos now and not getting any sleep tonight. Love it. And I agree with the other comments please do Taboo, it's even better than this album even tho unlocked is amazing taboo is even better
This video was the decider for me, I’ve seen a few of your album reviews in the past and I love your energy about this genre of music! I get the same vibes. Subbed and bought a new vinyl player to listen to music on. I saw target was selling this vinyl for under 20 and I had to give it a listen It’s now top on my wishlist.
This was fantastic. Thank you for your content, your what’s beautiful about RU-vid, the reason artists make music. Stick with it, take YOUR time, balance brother. Thank you for this
so glad you enjoyed this :), one of the best rap albums this year in my opinion! Kenny beats is a great producer and denzel curry works really well with him
I’ve been binging your reactions and I must say I love your channel and how you do these. I personally love music for the production and just the sound but other reactors pay more attention to lyrics and composition. Seeing that you loved the opening track as much as I do has solidified me as a fan of yours.
best reactions man. I love watching someone that actually knows what they are talking about and appreciates things rather than being overly critical of everything
This is an amazing reaction and review of the album. Kenny Beats has produced one of the best albums of our era, with an unparalleled performance by Denzel Curry.
DC has been my idol and favorite artist for years, the appreciation u gave this album makes me happy :) TA1300 and 13lood in 13lood out are also phenomenal, id love for u to check em out!
This was another incredible selection. Denzel Curry is someone I’ve been interested to see and this is his most recent project. It is short but just may be my favorite
Dude, "UNLOCKED" is my favorite Denzel album yet. Ta13oo is amazing too and if you want more Kenny Beats, check out Vince Staples' "FM!" and Rico Nasty's "Anger Management."
It’s amazing and important to have reaction channels like yours, everyone does lyric reactions and don’t credit production, which trust me the lyrics are very note worthy, but sometimes people who vibe to the sounds feels more realistic to how someone first reacts to songs, the overall sound first, then they give the lyrics a good listen, keep doing what you’re doing man you go crazy!!!
I've come back to this review so many times. It's just such a good feeling to have someone else vibing with the music you enjoy. Btw, Denzel Curry is makin a new album, so you better keep your eyes open. I have a funny feeling about the next album being his best album.
I'm totally new and probably got to you because of Denzel (big fan), but I really loved this video! Great energy and you did infuse the energy that I didn't have when I listened to the album on the first run. I appreciate it much more now, thanks! Favorite song by Denzel Curry is probably RICKY. Keep it up!
First video of yours I've watched, absolutely love the energy. That is how music is supposed to make you feel, it's crazy to me that some people would clown you for feeling the way you do. Music is made to move you! Keep doin you man, I hope you do take a break and feel better than ever.
