Did you ever do Ghetts - Conflict of Interest? Because honestly its a masterpiece. We been spoilt this year. EDIT: Just got to the bit where you said you HAVEN'T LISTENED TO IT? It's a masterpiece please do it!
If you started the album at midnight when it was released, the song Twenty to One starts at 12:40, twenty to one. “Look at the time it’s twenty to one”. Yes Dave, it fucking is.
Dave is simply an artist that knows how to paint his canvas and creates art that is simply a masterpiece. Yet he is only 23 years old. It's just amazing to witness...absolutely true or absolute facts?
And not only that create a canvas that he hasn’t himself lived in, he can take in someone else’s experience and make it his own and then make u feel and understand it- Best storyteller the uk has ever had and it’s not even close
9:17 That bar is insane. The part before it: So he’s saying he’s playing with swords, not a gun, and relating to Blaszczykowski. Blaszczykowski witnessed his mum get stabbed to death by his dad. Then a “Ronin” is a samurai who grew up woth no master. A ronin also carries “2 swords”. So, cos he grew up without his mum, and no dad cos he was in prison for life, Dave talks about him as a “Ronin”. This guy is insane.
Heart Attack is the song of the year and I love how at the end he just goes acapella like the beat just goes "i give up, I cant hang with him anymore". Fucking masterful unbelievable tune and frankly we are lucky to be living in a time when music like this is being made
When you realise the album dropped at midnight and 40 minutes into the listen Dave tells you to "look at the time it's 20 to 1". Slickness and wittiness is too easy for him man
I can see Dave really taking the piss with little Easter eggs like that as he continues to improve like Kendrick did on To Pimp. A Butterfly, just putting in little things related to Tupac that foreshadow the ending of the album
Heart attack is just so special. Makes me feel so emotional, from the subject matter of the track to the call back and growth from panic attack. It’s perfect as far is I’m concerned and may now be my new favourite Dave track.

Fucking love Dave man. He really defines the word "artist". And when I met him, he was one of the most genuine people I ever met. Guys the same age as me, it's fucked. My question is.... How many fucking books does this man read? LMAO he's citing shit like Shakespeare, referring to all sorts of mythology, etc. It's insane what this guy can do
"Watch game delicate tutankhamun there's money in skeletons" Skeletons as in the watches. Skeletons as in tutankhamun buried in his riches. Skeletons as in people who have been killed on the streets. Crazy.
As a guy from Switzerland where only really US rap is popular, I had never heard of Dave before watching the BRITs a couple days ago. I remember cheering for ‘30’ winning Best Album. When Dave won best Rap Artist, I was confused as I didn’t know anything about it. Then came ‘… In The Fire’ and I had shivers all over my body. One of the best live performances I’ve ever seen. Today I listened to this Album and honestly still can’t believe what I just heard. Absolutely insane, generational talent, an Album for the ages. I take back saying ‘30’ is the clear cut Album of the Year. ‘We’re all in this together’ is it. It’s the Album of the Decade for me and we’re only in 2022. I could go on and on but I’m gonna stop here. Thanks for the reaction Jon, killed it as always. UK rap just got a new fan, I’m out.
Always love these reactions, You simply just get it. Not intrusive, yet informative, Not over the top, yet Emotional. Most people gloss over the music and just watch it for "views" etc you watch what you enjoy and it shows. Keep these coming Jon!
I won’t lie, this album passed over me the first time I heard I just thought it was okay. But I relate to this album so much. As a son of a Nigerian immigrant who is also a nurse parts of this album was genuinely hard to listen to because of how close it hit home. Thanks Dave
Bout to blow your mind. Dave - Drama: "Do you believe that I Can illustrate what Sreatham is, then break the fourth wall and base Leslie on my relatives" I presume you've heard Leslie? that bar made me question everything when he said Commas Inverted!!
It’s quite easy to be proud of being British when your small country managed to have such a impact on the world and accomplished so much for its citizens in that time
I agree 100 percent. Even as someone from America, I can say as well that no one in America (topping the charts) close or at his age is anywhere nearrr his level
In Drama, Dave said “Do you believe that I can illustrate what Streatham is then break the fourth wall and base Lesley on my relatives?” On Heart Attack, Dave said “I was in intensive care when I was born, mommy fell down the stairs. Whether I was gonna live or not was somethin' uncertain. I used the word "Fell", with the commas inverted.” Lesley is based on his mother. That’s mad.
I've listened to this album all the way through about 30 times, and every time I clock something I hadn't before. 23 years old, the same age as me. The guy is absolutely insane. I appreciate your genuine reactions so much, times where you were speechless and other times when you were emotional. It's just a masterpiece.
Fr got me so excited when each feature came on. Was really expecting more after the first 4 such as j hus young Teflon but can’t complain was a masterpiece
@@lb61936 yeah I was surprised that there was no j hus on the album to be honest, but the initial feeling when the features just kept on coming was so good :)
@@euanpirt2594 yep at the time it was the best to listen to of them all . Shame about hus but he’s already said that Dave will be on his album so we will get a collab from them
Dave operates on a higher level. The lyricism, the intelligence, the storytelling. He's more than a rapper; he's a poet. The best out there right now by a country mile. It ain't even close.
@@michaelshearer5880 his last album was great, and the fact it was 4 years ago affects nothing. Also let’s not act like Dave has anything as good as TPAB and GKMC
A reaction could never be worthy of this album but this is as close as you can get. So raw and honest, super reaction for one of the best records ever released
An instant classic album and instant classic video from the Prophet himself. I can see this being one of the vids I regular, just like the Kiss Land, TPAB, and a select few others.
Dave has hands down my favorite album of the year thus far. I played "Heart Attack" in the car with my lady and she started tearing up and asked me "Who is this and can I give him a hug?" The pain in Dave's voice on that song is raw and pure, and that song hits you in the heart (no pun intended).
He’s been my favourite artist since I first heard his blackbox 5/6 years ago, he’s just different to everyone. An unbelievable human who deserves every bit of success he gets, I’m honoured to be listening to him and the album is a masterpiece.
Mate, I was listening to this at the gym this morning and thoroughly enjoyed it, although felt like an emotional wreck listening to Heart Attack whilst trying to do reps on a machine, must've looked a mess!
“I had dreams of doing architecture, or sitting through a Harvard lecture, how’d I end up being Harvey Specter.” Dave needs so much more credit, ridiculous talent.
I'm sure a thousand people have said it, but I specifically came to Jon's video to get a native perspective as an American. There's certain concepts that he was able to explain that I just had no clue about - makes me appreciate this incredible album even more.
I dont even wanna see the Ghetts reaction for me, i want to see it for YOU. Its unspeakable masterful Conflict Of Interest is, unlike anything you heard
That bar hit so much for me being somali and seeing all my somali friends groomed into selling drugs and having a couple of them die this shit is so fucked man
I've realized subconsciously i use a lot of your reviews for albums I've never heard before almost as a skim over/ second opinion on the music before i actually take the time to wanna give (a new artist to me) a full listening session cause its so hard to find the good in all of the bad these days. but this album here.. i would already buy the Vinyl. such a complete tone. I'll be listening to this alot.
Yeah man... David has delivered once again... actually wait he has exceeded all expectations. Best part is this body of work will only continue to get better with every listen.
Both Sides of a Smile & Heart Attack take Dave onto to another level from any UK artist. He has gone from making amazing songs to making art. Album of the year for sure.
When the album was announced the first thing I thought was I can't wait to watch your reaction to it. Your videos are always so personal and give a great insight and perspective into the music you are reacting to. This was one of your best and I just wanted to say thank you for providing such genuine and personal reactions , I always leave your video's with a new understanding and appreciation for the music you have reacted to.
@@aidanLVbeats I understand. I like the styrtelling part of psychodrama and all the classic bangers, but Dave showed improved skills on WAAITT imo. Psychodrama is probably the best album ever made, but I still think this album has a lot of improvements over psychodrama. Dave just keeps levelling up📈
First off absolutely love watching you react Jon it’s truly a blessing to watch you react to something like this, when you listen to something this good & it moves you so much it’s lovely to see. secondly we all as fans of Dave and rap music need to appreciate just how special this young man is, 23 and he’s this tuned in to the world around him what’s going on in the world & just how great of an ear he has for music. He’s by far the best rapper lyricist & storyteller this country has ever seen going across all genres of music not just rap and one of if not the best rapper out there in the world, that’s including everyone in America and I mean everyone it’s not close really in my opinion he’s just better than all of them. Nobody does it like Dave does. This album is a masterpiece and will win countless awards and be spoken about for years to come. 2 albums down in to his career and there both special special records. Cannot wait to see how far this young man can go moving forward it’s actually scary to think what he’s gonna be like in 5/10 years if he’s still making music. Fav tracks are - in the fire, heart attack, we’re all alone, survivors guilt & both sides of a smile.
The audacity of people saying this project is a drop off from the level of Psychodrama. People really don't want to see you achieve success beyond what they think you deserve in their minds! This is a classic album with about 3 cuts made for the mainstream and social settings.
Just a bit of advice for next time When taking in an album it’s important to listen to the pre released singles aswell. They can sound different and hit different when listened to in the context of an album. Even songs you don’t expect.
I’ve been saying Daves the next. This is just the cherry on top. Pure art. Literally no one new in America raps like this apart from the Kendrick and Cole’s
31:45 Think this means Leslie was about his mum which I said at the time of psychodrama because in drama he says smthn like "broke the fourth wall and based leslie on my relatives"
How can one person possess so much talent…………. Honestly so glad I’ve witnessed this moment in history. The album is a masterpiece, story telling 10/10 bars 10/10 production 10/10 Beats 10/10 Passion 20/10 Talent is off the charts @ 1000/10 This isn’t uk rap grime or drill this is art

Gotta do the Ghetts album, honestly didn't get the recognition it deserved but it's a fantastic album. Love the vids fam

Heart Attack is up there for me
That's the one song I didn't like tbh
@@farhanquamr9999 what heart attack or both side of a smile
@@declanhardie9273 both sides of a smile
@@farhanquamr9999 damn what you aint like ab it? Both features killed it
Both Sides of a Smile & Heart Attack take Dave onto to another level from any UK artist. He has gone from making amazing songs to making art. Album of the year for sure.
I'd love to see what Dave and Cole could put together. Both incredible lyricists.
When the album was announced the first thing I thought was I can't wait to watch your reaction to it. Your videos are always so personal and give a great insight and perspective into the music you are reacting to. This was one of your best and I just wanted to say thank you for providing such genuine and personal reactions , I always leave your video's with a new understanding and appreciation for the music you have reacted to.
Santan really topped Psychodrama. Man’s the definition av GOAT🐐🌪
for me, psychodrama >
@@aidanLVbeats I understand. I like the styrtelling part of psychodrama and all the classic bangers, but Dave showed improved skills on WAAITT imo. Psychodrama is probably the best album ever made, but I still think this album has a lot of improvements over psychodrama. Dave just keeps levelling up📈
Sorry chip"Dave" has a bigger calling than to respond to you-
This album is a classic
Dave is a phenom. However he’s not stupid enough to go at Chip. Chip is built different when it comes to sending.
Chip just pissed that Stormzy keeps sending indirects on features, cus Stormzy knows he can't go against Chip
First off absolutely love watching you react Jon it’s truly a blessing to watch you react to something like this, when you listen to something this good & it moves you so much it’s lovely to see. secondly we all as fans of Dave and rap music need to appreciate just how special this young man is, 23 and he’s this tuned in to the world around him what’s going on in the world & just how great of an ear he has for music. He’s by far the best rapper lyricist & storyteller this country has ever seen going across all genres of music not just rap and one of if not the best rapper out there in the world, that’s including everyone in America and I mean everyone it’s not close really in my opinion he’s just better than all of them. Nobody does it like Dave does. This album is a masterpiece and will win countless awards and be spoken about for years to come. 2 albums down in to his career and there both special special records. Cannot wait to see how far this young man can go moving forward it’s actually scary to think what he’s gonna be like in 5/10 years if he’s still making music. Fav tracks are - in the fire, heart attack, we’re all alone, survivors guilt & both sides of a smile.
How many genres do you properly listen to?
@@qwertyvypez a fair few
Rap
Grime
Rock
Indie/rock
Country
Some pop & a little bit of folk
Not listened to the album yet because I wanted to see your reaction. Was not disappointed, great video.
Bonus fact: if you listened to the album from its release at midnight, you would have listened to Twenty to One at exactly 12:40… levels 🤯🤯
Only if u skipped clash tho (which most people probably did)
Dave is comfortably the best artist in the uk he can do it all and he’s better then majority of the us artists !!
Will love to see a Dave x J Cole collab just imagine
Heart Attack is one of the best rap songs ever made
*songs
Absolutely
UK maybe, overall? I doubt it.
@@Smith89123 Not just UK
@@hmwh4t It's good but it's not even close to a Rap great.
Honestly listening to the album and then your reaction back to back is great, you picked up on many bars that flew over my head. Great reaction Jon
Catch a new meaning every time you listen, truly the highest form of art.
The audacity of people saying this project is a drop off from the level of Psychodrama. People really don't want to see you achieve success beyond what they think you deserve in their minds! This is a classic album with about 3 cuts made for the mainstream and social settings.
three rivers also brought me to tears, how he can tell stories so clearly but hidden in bars is outrageous 🤯
Yes please with the ghetts album reaction, it’s another masterpiece
Just a bit of advice for next time When taking in an album it’s important to listen to the pre released singles aswell. They can sound different and hit different when listened to in the context of an album. Even songs you don’t expect.
this WILL go down as album of the year and nothing is coming close.
You're a real one, i almost shed a tear listening to heart attack at the end..
Yes definately do the ghetts album. Amazing song with dave there.
Seems like you enjoy James blake and just wanted to say he just cameout with a new single you could check out
Coming back at the end of the year to watch this masterpiece of reaction
I’ve been saying Daves the next. This is just the cherry on top. Pure art. Literally no one new in America raps like this apart from the Kendrick and Cole’s
Bro just daves voice over the piano gives me goosebumps 🥶
31:45 Think this means Leslie was about his mum which I said at the time of psychodrama because in drama he says smthn like "broke the fourth wall and based leslie on my relatives"
That’s an insane catch if true and easily could still be but in Lesley it’s defo implied it’s her first baby but Dave has 2 older brothers
@@ziggythetortoise4237 isn’t it about domestic abuse against women in general?
The most intelligent music artist you’ll see in this day and age! The story telling is a whole never level
This album is sensational. Dave one ups himself yet again
How can one person possess so much talent…………. Honestly so glad I’ve witnessed this moment in history. The album is a masterpiece,
story telling 10/10
bars 10/10
production 10/10
Beats 10/10
Passion 20/10
Talent is off the charts @ 1000/10
This isn’t uk rap grime or drill this is art
it’d be an insult to call it grime or drill
