First Time Hearing | Big Sean - Control f Kendrick Lamar & Jay Electronica Reaction 

Bro was pressed by the king of New York line😂

Triggered by that Kendrick line 11 years later.... Gotta be the GOAT.

"I'm the king of NY" ... Was meant to trigger people

I'm from NY and hands down the layers are crazy. The GOAT of the 21 century... Give him his flowers!!!

How you can’t listen to Kendrick whole album and love hip hop?

Kicking, screaming, throwing up this Kendrick verse is literally so f*cking fire 🔥 and it literally did exactly what Kendrick wanted and it lit the fire under so many artists to do better

André 3000 doesn’t need a solo album to be on that list, he proved himself already to be one of the best!💯🔥

The way he was befuddled when Kendrick said he is the king of new York 😂😂😂

Kendrick's verse was so savage that the Big Sean & Jay Electronica verses got slept on. When this Track first dropped it was Controversial on the Internet... but it was Good for Hip Hop... Everyone was talking about it. ☮️

This was a crazy time in music, Kendrick was just like a year and a half into mainstream.. calling himself the GOAT of everything this spawned multiple disses , from Drake , Meek mill , asap rocky

I think control is an example of what rap should be. Rap turned into a 16 bar selling frenzy. Each of their verses was just them speaking their voice. Their writing probably.their story. No time limit. Just letting things be said whatever needed to be said. And in hindsight this is when kendrick literally was on top. All his albums won multiple awards. He kept winning so he called people out to dethrone him. But no one lives rap like Kendrick. He says what he means. He has to say something that means something. Not just to sell a beat. That vision of rap is almost dead.

Big Sean is the type of dude to say "Hold on one gosh darn minute???" After listening to this the first time 😂

Kdot is a king of New York 😂😂period

also, theres a reason why this song is more commonly referred to as 'The Control Verse' rather than 'Control'.

mission accomlished with the " king of New York" line...lol! btw.. how we feeling on kdot in May 2024?

Man, I wish there were more music reactors when this song came out, the reactions and the hip hop game was crazy, everybody took the king of New York line and made remix diss tracks for it, and then when he named off all the rappers and said he's unaliving them, that had a similar impact to Eminem on kill shot about Diddy and pac

You never heard Kendrick’s Name in the talk of best MC??? Who are you having these conversations with then lol I’ve heard his name on multiple occasions from not just my conversations but interviews as well saying Kendrick is one of the best to touch a Mic. But it’s all subjective I suppose

Kendrick lamar ft j cole- black Friday. On this track they both rap over each other's beats. Also, busta rhymes ft kendrick lamar- look over your shoulder, is a must.

13:00 Yep, this is the part that puts smiles on most oldheads faces

We need reactions to Kendrick's old songs, Love me some Kendrick Lamar

When this track came out he was the king of NY due to the music that was being played in NY…yes it was his being played more than anyone in NY.

I know a lot of people think Kendrick bodied Big Sean but this guy can rapvery very fucking well and this verse just shows Kendrick is just a fucking force of nature.

Big Sean feat Lil Wayne-Deep Great song they both go crazy on it.

There's an interview with how it went down and pretty much Big. Sean wrote his verse and send it out to both of them and put it on the track, I believe he was asked if he thought about rewriting his verse and he said that he felt comfortable with it. But yeah, Kendrick took this song and definitely called out the entire hip hop game to step their game up, Hopsin also had a bar in rebuttal to this on Hop is back, saying Kendrick raised the bar higher for hip hop, unfortunately the little nigga is 4'3, the guy is a midget so his high is still really short to me

Kendricks verse was his way to make the real artist step their pen game up and put out some good music. He doesn't believe he is the king of NY

"I think we have something here, guys" is WILD 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

King of New York line still triggering New Yorkers 😂 He just saying he the best in the world which is a movie and Kurupt said the same line decades before 🤣

“And nothing been the same since I dropped control, and tucked a sensitive rapper back in his pajama clothes” that boy Kenny different

He is putting himself there in the top 5 conversation. IT'S CLEAR NO DEBATING! This was is foreshadowing at its finest.

The Love Below was Andre's solo. And it is elite.

Are you saying you can't sit through Section 80, GKMC, TPB, Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers? Kendrick is in the top 5 storytellers, no question. To each their own but I'd recommend you go back and listen to each album because not only are they concept albums, they progress and tell the story. Section.80: The traumas and influences inflicted upon his generation GKMC: His childhood of gang ties, addiction, peer pressure, and many other things TPMB: Racial injustice and mental health struggles DAMN: His introspection on his new life of fame and looking back on his life Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers: What is wrong with me

This shit started many a barbershop fights in ny

7:31 he said it, cause he’s testing the limits of his “CONTROL.”

If you ask me, the original "control verse" was Kendrick's Monster Freestyle from like 2010/2011.

bro is the king of the rap game rn, NO ONE from NY can fw Kendrick rn so yes he own y’all

this is astaple in hip hop history kendricks verse change the direction of big sean forever

I disagree that Sean doesn't have bars and punchlines. Detroit vs. Everybody had a fire ass verse! 3 Stacks did have his own album! He had The Love Below in the double album that was 2 solo projects! 3 Stacks had The Love Below, while Big Boi had Speakerboxx.

Bruh, name another hip hop artist in NYC hotter than K-Dot? Face it, he IS the King of New York!

Solo album or not, nobody is close to 3 stacks.

Kendrick is better than any NYC rapper. Period

As far as Big Sean, this wasn’t his best so this isn’t really a fair first impression of a listen but he really is dope and has gotten much much better with his pen since then

We have to get him to watch Drake's response to this and the absolutely diabolical freestyle from Kendrick it led to

Kendrick is the king of New York

Please don't sleep on Jay Electronica'verse guys 😢

This song was not officially released

Bro you shouldn't have a hip hop platform if you can't listen to a whole Kendrick album? I'm confused like hell. HE IS HIP HOP

No lie, every time Kendrick is featured in a song, he kills the song like it’s nothing, his verse is always better. But he says he’s the kind of NY, because he’s Makaveli’s offspring, Pac was from New York, and he’s just saying he’s the king of Rap from coast to coast.

Kendrick Lamar is the specific type of content I would like to see no doubt

Bro Kendrick Lamar’s Entire Verse on the track was SOOOOOO EMINEM inspired…..shit 90s Em inspired really cause you definitely get that 90s Eminem vibe from this entire verse,it’s one of my fav verses on the the song, “Control”…….

Big Sean - “Stay Down” or “Deep” featuring Lil Wayne are dope ass tracks

Bro I love your reactions....this is 2024....I came from your reactions to the Drake / Kendrick beef. Keep up the good work bro!

That whole "I'm 'Pac's offspring, I'm the King of New York" line alone had like three layers 1) he is a mix of Biggie and Tupac, simple and easy 3) he's the offspring of Tupac. 'Pac's first rapper name was MC New York. Basically sayin he learned from New York Hip Hop Culture / grew up with New York Hip Hop enough to now be even better than all the current artists out there 3) he came from MC New York but surpassed him and became the King of New York But the end effect remains the same: he shitted on the WHOLE rap game, sayin he's the best cause he had the greatests teaching him 😂

PAC was from New York moved to Cali

never subscribed so quickly to a channel, thank you .

6:18 kendrick verse

Why won't you listen to a Kendrick album, they are only about an hour and you have loved every Kendrick song you have ever listened too, I do not understand why you can't listen to him.

The King Of New York line was from the Christopher Walken movie

Big sean is pretty underrated. He has good flow with good punches. Definitely good vibes

Jay electronica killed this.

Pac killed the east with hit em up, no diss record will ever surpass it.

Speaks volume that he considered Mac Miller a peer and not mgk.

This my favorite reactor right here.

This was the first you heard it 👀song is literally a decade old 😂

Danny Brown and Kendrick - 'Really Doe' 🔥

The King of New York line can be taking a couple of different ways. Obviously on the surface it sounds like he's just saying he's better than all New York rappers. Well from a certain aspect he's not wrong because Kendrick music (at least at the time) got more plays and more hits than any other New York rapper locally or mainstream and his music sold out better than all the other New York rappers. So from a certain perspective you could say he was the King of New York as far as numbers and sales for rapping. Then the other way that a lot of people don't recognize is that the bar was originally by a rapper named Korrupt and his meaning for it was basically say he was Christopher Wallace which was a guy in a movie called King of New York. So yeah it's a slick way to put a bar in because he's technically saying he's like Christopher Wallace but at the same time it sounds like he's flat out saying he's the king of New York which he wasn't.

Kendrick got a lot of hate for that king of NY line. A group of NY rappers got together and dissed him including Joel Ortiz, papoose and many more. You should check it out

"makaveli's offspring I'm the king of NY" he got the crown from pac 😂

Big Sean no favors feat. Eminem

Kendrick shook the game with this verse and Drake still didn’t learn to use extreme caution. Guess where he is? Canada, hiding out in the most expensive piece of Swiss cheese. 😂😂

"who the fuck is a Jay Elec tronica?"

You do yourself a huge disservice when you do not listen to an entire Kendrick album. I was born and raised in Harlem and was 9 years old when I first began listening to Dr. Dre The Chronic. That album was my GateWay to appreciating West Coast music.

Yeah,Kanye signed him

Bro, I'm soo happy that you reacted to some kendrick, I hope you dive into his music his older stuff is pretty damn top notch, his album section 80 is a 10/10.

Just do "no favors" by big sean This "he's alright" slander needs to stop haha

Can't listen to a whole kendrick album and has never hear jay electronica? I wish i could take my view back 😂

Listen to Kendrick Lamar the heart part 2.

Big Sean heard the verse and re-wrote his part...

Eminem and Kendrick Lamar, Love game

he startet saying im makavelis ofspring. im the king of new york. Like he is tupac and biggie...

kendrick considered himself the king of NY because he was outselling everyone there at that time - im pre sure

His verse is long (Big Sean). Made me lol😂 like mover it along

I can remember watching him react saying first time like 2 years ago to this video and now it’s deleted😂

Its a kurupt bar kendrick paying homage to him with the king od new york bar

if you want to heard some cool Big Sean bars, you should try his freestyle at LA Leakers

The king of New York bar was a reference to pac, he said I'm makaveli's offspring, pac is from New York Chill on Kendrick you 10 years late

the king of new york bar was referencing the movie king of new york 1990

He is the greatest

ten years later no one else has said king of new york.

youre nuts.this bangs

King of NY, muslim with pork is Kurupts lyrics...

50 said he's the king of NY, he seems doing fine.

The movie King of New York!

So many NY MC’s responded to this and you have no clue about it?

Big Sean verse is sonically amazing

The love below 3k solo

I swear this guy reacted to this song for the first time like 5 times now.

Holup, am I just trippin or this guy just said he has never heard of Jay Electronica? Also says he can't listen to an entire Kendrick Lamar album yet he listens to hiphop? How bro.....am in Africa, Zambia to be exact and I know Jay Electronica. Kendrick is also dope so what is your issue bro, am failing to see the problem

This is old, but on the king of New York line, I think he was referring to himself as the embodiment of pure hip hop. It was a shout out to Biggie and Pac. Listen to the whole bar. I'm the "offspring" of "makiaveli"- 2Pac I'm the king off New York-Biggie. He was shouting his peers in the name of competition "I'm tryna raise the bar high" he cares about hip hop and keeping alive. I think they all understood except for drake he got on his feelings about it.

Big sean is actually not that bad. He have some good songs and verses

Welp, if you've done this then I suppose its only timely to do Big KRIT - Mt. Olympus... which is 'the response?!?' to this song.
