J. Cole - The Climb Back (REACTION!) 

You know it’s heat when they run it back and Jcole hasn’t said a word

I never understood the hate Cole Gets. The best of his generation by far. One of the greatest ever

There’s a Kobe reference also in the first verse... section “8”, more “2” guards, “4” u-hauls... 8 and 24 🐐✌🏾

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😂😂

Really enjoy you guys' exposition, humor, & friendly chemistry. A real, refreshing channel; always look forward to the notifications.

Don’t feel bad about stopping it man. We watch it for the commentary

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!

Realllllyyy hoping for the No Pressure reactions

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”

“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 🔥🐐

That "Do that mean GOD lost" and "My DOG lost" bar how he flipped GOD and DOG is crazy to me.

Took yall long enough damn. We missed y'all

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. 🤯😂

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

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.

Fam definitely check out Lion King On Ice. It’s an anthem with a message

Sumthing bout j cole just hit diff I cant make mind into it but it just amazes me

There is a lot reactors on RU-vid that get by with antics but no one does it with the class and detail that this channel displays.

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

JOEY BADA$$ - THE LIGHT is fire!

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 .

Did y’all peep he added a word after every chorus. Until he got to saying Blue Moon bringing it full circle

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.

I once read that “j cole is like fine wine. The older he gets the betterrr he gets ...

More smino please, he did a song called Baguetti ft JID

When he starts the singing near the end about suicide prevention reminds me of Queen Latifah’s “Just another day in the neighborhood”

Exactly. Cole is not just making music, he adresses issues and tryna find solutions aswel.

React to some joints from new Logic album. Will not be disappointed.

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!

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.

Logics album really is meaningful and return to the roots you guys will love it!

I’ve been waiting for this reaction😭💯💯

Cole is the GOAT

This track is so beautiful, both musically and lyrically. Really glad to see you guys review and experience it

The bro j.cole is actually trying to play for the NBA! 🔥

*I’ve been waiting for your guys reaction to this! Jermaine absolutely bodied this as expected!* 🔥 #FreeThinker 💭

Been waiting for this!! So excited to see what you guys have planned

Y’all breakdowns are the absolute truth y’all need a show for real been waiting on this all week lol

I've waited for this since this came out! You all are the best ❤️

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 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!

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

Thank you.... I've been waiting on this since the song drop.. Much love LIV

Notification gang, y'all know we've been waiting for this one! hehehehe HERE WE GO!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 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!

Cole is one one right now..

I need that new logic album reaction I’ve been watching since the logic marathon u guys did like 3 years ago.

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

Beeen waiting on this ever since I heard Cole dropped some new tracks! Keep buildin yall!

Congrats guys, you guys seem like some good dudes. Respect the reactions and channel!

This the reaction I’ve been waiting for 💯

I been waiting guys!!!! Thank you

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.

Congrats on the 1 million subs guys!! The best reactors on RU-vid hands down

Idk what slaps more George on those tic tacs or the track.

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 !!

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!

Cmon guys I was just about to go to sleep and you uploaded this, now I gotta watch 😂😂

HIT THAT BUTTON FAR TO QUICK!! BEEN WAITING FOR THE GOATS TOO REVIEW THE GOAT

the level that this channel takes music to is underappreciated. The most in-depth analysis you're ever going to come across on RU-vid 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.

Damn I’ve been waiting for this. Glad to see you guys back.

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.

I checked your channel everyday since the song was released just to watch this reaction!!!

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! Missed you guys! Shoutouts from UK

I love your analysis guys. helping me understand and appreciate these songs even more

I neeeed an album review to the fall off when it comes out.

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

your guys reactions are truly dope. You guys are true mind openers

These are my favorite type of videos from y’all. Thanks guys!

The Lost in Vegas hip hop climb back haha. Glad you guys are back!

This honestly is probably one of the best reaction breakdown videos i have ever seen

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❤

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.

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.

Can we get a no pressure album reaction one last time for the rattpack? Last album ever!

Been waiting for this one!

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 🔥🔥

Making us sweat it out over here! Been refreshing every hour!

Finally you guys are back! I missed this kind of videos, it's really chill to hear your opinion and analysis

Bruh I been waiting for yall to drop this ever since the song dropped checking yall channel like crazy Thank you Jesus!

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!

I was so sick of all these other wack ass reactions, finaally guys. Keep up the good work we appreciate you guys

I've been waiting for this reaction, you guys never disappoint.

Mann ive waited whole week for your reaction and its finally here!!

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

I miss having more rap/hip-hop reaction. I hope what they have planned has more of it.

Been Waiting Thanks Guys

Man!!!! Im glad you guys are back. Awsome breakdown of the song. Can't wait for more reviews.

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😂

The chorus got that “Where ya at?” by Future cadence

This is the reaction I’ve been waiting for. I really enjoy watching your videos. ♥️

i am so happy that i found this channel and watching it grow is just perfect, keep doing your thang and cant wait to see the plans you have for us in the future.

We already know that we’re boutta get that no pressure retirement album

"brothers" is ur best placement for the word! lmao

Been waiting for this all week

I was looking for this review yesterday and I couldn’t find one. I couldn’t believe it hahaha glad to see you guys came through!
