Bass jam has to be one of the best closing tracks on any rap album, it’s the perfect track to end quaranta on since in more ways than one it’s the perfect antithesis to 30 on XXX. It just feels like he finally liberated himself from a dark place.
I feel Bass Jam encapsulate what Bobs whole channel is about. The lyrical impact, and the value we see in music based on the context of the songs, and that it isnt necessarily about the sound, but about how it makes us feel.
I’ve cried or had tears in my eyes every time I’ve listened to bass jam (like 7 times now) it’s thinking of the great times in a tough childhood he had because of music and him saying music is all he ever wanted to do and now he’s one of the most respected artists out there im so happy for him :)
@@bobthepoppop yeah definitely that simple beat makes me think about memories that aren’t even similar to what he’s rapping about it’s incredible what he’s managed to do with that song
Bass Jam is such a beautiful song. It is the perfect conclusion to Quaranta. Danny's journey from XXX to this album has been incredible, and I am so happy I was there along the ride. So happy that Danny has found his place. Time to enjoy live.
@@jacquecousteau @dadorage1695 MIKE dropped three albums plus features for Earl and Niontay, in like a month! 🤯 that also led me back to their collab WhereDeyAt, one of the craziest tracks I’ve ever heard him on.
I cried shortly after you started crying lol. My dog was hit by a car on Tuesday and I hadn't cried since, but this video allowed me to finally loosen up that blockage a bit.
I love Danny Brown. Just everything about the guy, his music is mind bending, personal, funny, insane, just one of a kind.. its really relatable and has healed me through tough times, many good memories because of him. I Thank Danny for being true to himself, and he'll always be my favorite🖤
This has been a very emotional week for me personally and holy shit this album hit me hard. Its a really chill album overall but damn he hits on so many things that really sit with you. I love that he got out all his wacky shit with Scaring the Hoes and just got REAL with this album. Its just beautiful.
"Sideways Bobs" also made me choke up. And I literally just chocked up watching your reaction. I have a knot in my throat, listening to you break it down. Because it's true. I had to eat ice cream to make it better 😂. Man, I love Danny Brown even more after this album.
I genuinely appreciate your humanity, man. The fact that you connect so deeply with people whose experiences are so completely different that it brings you to tears... You're a deeply empathetic man and that's really a beautiful thing bro.
I know Danny recently said he was on acid when he made Tantor. The Alchemist came in with some new beat! He tends to produce different beats so this was sick to hear! Huge fan of Al. The video is hilarious! I recommend it! But the song does stand out when you listen to the whole album.
didn’t really appreciate Bass Jam until listened to the album in its entirety and by the end was crying like a mf. it hit so hard even though i don’t know the man personally. no funny bars no punchlines, just Danny, Daniel this time. this is truly beautiful. I love that he is finally sober and living his best possible life right now, he’s seen too much shit and deserves to be happy.
everyone’s said it already but bass jam relaly is one of the best endings to a rap album from recent memory. perfect and super emotional ending to the project.
I attended a listening party in Austin Texas for this album with Danny Brown himself attending and hosting it alongside Idea Generation (Episode will be coming out soon on Idea Generation Channel) And Danny Brown mentioned how this album was made during the pandemic era so he was just locked in and writing his thoughts out, Even Danny said that listening to this album was a bit uncomfortable now given that he is now sober and doing a lot better. Just wanted to provide that context for yall 🫰. Love what you do Bob!
For as much as Danny Brown is known for his over the top persona, Detroit really breeds so many unique artist. J Dilla, Elzhi, Royce da 5’9, Eminem, Black Milk and a bunch of others 🤙🏼 Danny Brown manages to stay true to himself and never “faked” his character. It was more of a mask sometimes to hide the pain and he takes it off for this project and presents himself in his most vulnerable state. Really a true artist 🙌🏼
Homie got me tearing up at the end there...nice man...music touches us all in ways we can't say ourselves.. kendrick..danny..thank yall for speaking for us
Loved this album and this video only made me appreciate it more. Lots of thoughtful insight on lyrics that flew past my head. The stuff you said near the start about not worrying about age was really important for me to hear, just moved out of home earlier this year and super stressed/anxious about the current and future. I always look forward to these videos, thank you.
maaan Hanami + Bass Jam is such a fantastic way to close this project, great stuff Danny and great reaction Bob!! I was bawling right with you boss ✊ music’s the one Time Machine we have P.S Invincible is one of my favorite songs of all time as well :)
Invincible is insane. I'm still young but feel I've gone through enough to make me too tired some days. I've lost everyone I loved except my only brother. My girlfriend of 2 years is now the only person I love that's near me. My brother lives in Cali and I'm in London. Too far. It's tough sometimes. Tool has literally saved my life, as cringe as it may sound to many. Tool is my favorite band. Incredible music. Open to interpretation while also giving powerful messages. Ones that make you question, research, learn, humble yourself, learn to deal with life. Losing my mom to cancer in 2021 was tough. My only parent. At 28. I was not prepared. The months leading up were tough. It was quick too. COVID didn't help being able to see her until I did the tests to go live with her until she died. It was hard. I can stress that enough. I held a lot in. I was there alone too. Until I had my flight back home. 2 weeks of doing nothing. I delayed my flight to be with her until the end. It came sooner than we thought. Sorry for sharing too much. Smoking helps me open up I guess.
Yeah man! Dug tf out of this album too, I'm from Detroit so YBP was especially dope 🤣 and that Poetic Justice line was a reference to the actual movie with Tupac and Janet Jackson; and the drive in is a spot outside the city we all go to for that movie experience and it's fasho sketch af!!
Jenn's fucked me up man cause I been seeing that shit since I graduated HS in 2012 😭but I lows appreciate the occasional gun shots and other hood activity that keep Detroit as Black as it's been the past 90 odd years! (Not condoning the pain that comes with it but just a cultural thing 😂)
1:05:44 reminded me of the Fleetwood Mac, Landslide lyrics Well, I've been afraid of changin' 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Even children get older And I'm getting older too Growing older and growing apart, that's a scary thing man. Beautiful lyrics.
Bruiser Wolf's Dope Game Stupid would be great reaction too, he has a lot funny bars and is unique I'm really curious why he still not released new project, many people really liked his debut but almost 3 years passed and he only dropped few featurings since then
You would really be doing yourself a disservice if you don't get to the Kings disease/Magic trilogies from Nas' catalogue. I know it sounds like a lot, but sonically it's worth it
Zeke is Isaiah Thomas of the Detroit Pistons. I don't remember a character being murdered at a drive-in in Poetic Justice, but that _did_ happen in John Singleton's previous movie Boyz N The Hood (when Doughboy gets his revenge on his brother's killers)
Not sure if anyone got this info to you, but Danny Brown reference to “Zeke” is Isiah Thomas who was the leader and two time champion with the Detroit Pistons.
Hope you ever react to Quelle Chris's albums. He produced quite a bit on 30 too. His albums are very consistently good and he made a couple of albums with Chris Keys too. Highly recommended!
“mouth like i preordered it i download” bob he’s talking bout shooting loads down mouths 😅 otherwise great reaction the pod for me makes danny more human and makes these lyrics hit harder like im rooting for bro no matter what
![OsamaSon - ik what you did last summer [Official Music Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/4DIQDnu3mr4/mqdefault.jpg)
I just know Bob about to be hit with the hardest emotional whiplash going from uknowwhatimsayin straight into this 😭
you were not wrong, made me tear up
Hit HARD, goddamn
"shoulda paused it, had a thought but now i lost it" bob droppin BARS
lol
I hope this reaches Danny. Your reaction was beautiful. I cried with you Bob.
It looks like a lot of people did, and I think that's a great thing. I'm glad we can all be touched by this piece of music
Bass jam has to be one of the best closing tracks on any rap album, it’s the perfect track to end quaranta on since in more ways than one it’s the perfect antithesis to 30 on XXX. It just feels like he finally liberated himself from a dark place.

That's what I'm striving for :)

that baeline makes me feel so fucking grounded…
Bass Jam is one of those songs that captures a swirl of emotions into one beautiful moment, so well that we can all feel it in our own way
@@bobthepoppop yeah definitely that simple beat makes me think about memories that aren’t even similar to what he’s rapping about it’s incredible what he’s managed to do with that song
I'm so glad people feel so strongly about bass jam its such a beautiful song
It's gotten tons of love, so happy to see it as well ❤️
I love how authentic and vulnerable your reactions are. Quaranta is a beautiful album and your video made me enjoy it even more
🙏
1:20:16 “I don’t have any closing thoughts” there’s 9 minutes left in the video Bob
lol, right? Watching the videos helped calm me down so that I could chat about the album more
Bob got me crying at 3 am wtf dawg😂
:)
That last song is so good! Made me emotional as well
Bass Jam made me feel like piniocho story, like he is leaving the best of him, what a impactful album
Bass Jam is such a beautiful song. It is the perfect conclusion to Quaranta. Danny's journey from XXX to this album has been incredible, and I am so happy I was there along the ride. So happy that Danny has found his place. Time to enjoy live.
MIKE is the MVP of 2023, he has done an insane job this year, Burning Desire is my current AOTY by a long shot
Right. And his collab with Alchemist. What a great year for him.
love that hip hop never stops changing, most hip hop this year was pretty experimental
@@jacquecousteau @dadorage1695 MIKE dropped three albums plus features for Earl and Niontay, in like a month! 🤯
that also led me back to their collab WhereDeyAt, one of the craziest tracks I’ve ever heard him on.
First time hearing him but I loved it. Sounds kinda like machine gun black from early griselda days.
Agreed MIKE is definitely AOTY so far
I cried shortly after you started crying lol. My dog was hit by a car on Tuesday and I hadn't cried since, but this video allowed me to finally loosen up that blockage a bit.
Sorry to hear that. Hope everything gets better
I’m so sorry to hear that. I had a pitbull named Blue, that passed away about 7 years ago, I feel your pain ❤️
hope u feel okay bro, my cat passed 8 years ago and i still cry everytime i think about him. But don’t hold your emotions, it’s gonna be okay
long live the love for your doggo
im really sorry to hear that friend, wish him a speedy recovery
I love Danny Brown. Just everything about the guy, his music is mind bending, personal, funny, insane, just one of a kind.. its really relatable and has healed me through tough times, many good memories because of him. I Thank Danny for being true to himself, and he'll always be my favorite🖤
I hope Danny gets this. I hope he realizes why he has so many fans, that we enjoy who he is as a person and artist
Thank you so much for your reactions. You genuinely make my day better.
This has been a very emotional week for me personally and holy shit this album hit me hard. Its a really chill album overall but damn he hits on so many things that really sit with you. I love that he got out all his wacky shit with Scaring the Hoes and just got REAL with this album. Its just beautiful.
"Sideways Bobs" also made me choke up. And I literally just chocked up watching your reaction. I have a knot in my throat, listening to you break it down. Because it's true.
I had to eat ice cream to make it better 😂. Man, I love Danny Brown even more after this album.
We need a “Trippy, man…” T-Shirt along with the Jams line
I genuinely appreciate your humanity, man. The fact that you connect so deeply with people whose experiences are so completely different that it brings you to tears... You're a deeply empathetic man and that's really a beautiful thing bro.

Bass jam is one of my favorite Danny Brown songs if not my favorite. One of my favorite closers of any album
didn’t really appreciate Bass Jam until listened to the album in its entirety and by the end was crying like a mf.
it hit so hard even though i don’t know the man personally.
no funny bars no punchlines, just Danny, Daniel this time.
this is truly beautiful.
I love that he is finally sober and living his best possible life right now, he’s seen too much shit and deserves to be happy.
Bass Jam really hammers home as the closer. By itself, without the context of the other songs (and even other albums), it won't have the same effect.
48:17 Bob spittin bars
"what was he gonna say? i shouldve paused it
i had a thought in my head and i lost it"
noticed that too lmao
THIS WAS SO GOOD. Bass Jam is so beautiful!
last 5 songs are amazing
48:18 “I shoulda paused it, had a thought in my head now I lost it”
Coming with the bars
Man the second half of this album is so damn good!
This album was so good, and you're reaction just made it even more enjoyable. I hope Danny sees this because your reaction was so good.
Great reaction even greater album, hopefully danny sees this
everyone’s said it already but bass jam relaly is one of the best endings to a rap album from recent memory. perfect and super emotional ending to the project.
Quelle Chris is actually a rapper himself! You should check him out if you haven't yet. One of the most unique voices in underground rap.
All his albums are cash, even the instrumental albums
i saw him open for black midi last year. he was great
I attended a listening party in Austin Texas for this album with Danny Brown himself attending and hosting it alongside Idea Generation (Episode will be coming out soon on Idea Generation Channel)
And Danny Brown mentioned how this album was made during the pandemic era so he was just locked in and writing his thoughts out, Even Danny said that listening to this album was a bit uncomfortable now given that he is now sober and doing a lot better.
Just wanted to provide that context for yall 🫰. Love what you do Bob!
ay thats great! Which song did you like the most?
Reminds me of how he said he couldnt perform 30 of XXX because it was too emotional for him.
danny really knows how to make an intro and outro man wow
For as much as Danny Brown is known for his over the top persona, Detroit really breeds so many unique artist. J Dilla, Elzhi, Royce da 5’9, Eminem, Black Milk and a bunch of others 🤙🏼 Danny Brown manages to stay true to himself and never “faked” his character. It was more of a mask sometimes to hide the pain and he takes it off for this project and presents himself in his most vulnerable state. Really a true artist 🙌🏼
Perfect reaction bob thank u for this
lETS GOO this albums so amazing, hope you enjoyed it i havent watched the video yet lmao. whens the ghost~pop tape reaction?!? love ya bob
Loved the review!!!
Homie got me tearing up at the end there...nice man...music touches us all in ways we can't say ourselves.. kendrick..danny..thank yall for speaking for us
Life really is a ride, sometimes you can change directions sometimes you can't.
The Dave Chapelle bar is actually a true story Danny talked about on his podcast. Really funny podcast btw and worth a listen!!!
lol, that's too funny
that last song got me crying too it so emotional and just so much to process
Just finished this album it’s incredible
This was my first vid of yours I watched and I was immediately hooked by your energy. Thanks for being so genuine 🙏
Loved this album and this video only made me appreciate it more. Lots of thoughtful insight on lyrics that flew past my head. The stuff you said near the start about not worrying about age was really important for me to hear, just moved out of home earlier this year and super stressed/anxious about the current and future.

I love you Bob, and Danny too, thanks for everything
maaan Hanami + Bass Jam is such a fantastic way to close this project, great stuff Danny and great reaction Bob!! I was bawling right with you boss ✊ music’s the one Time Machine we have
P.S Invincible is one of my favorite songs of all time as well :)
*Bass Jam is beautiful.*
guys Danny watched this video and reposted a couple tweets about it!!!
sideways bob eating tonight
just what i needed, you always come through bob!!
I bawled my eyes out too bob
Invincible is insane. I'm still young but feel I've gone through enough to make me too tired some days. I've lost everyone I loved except my only brother. My girlfriend of 2 years is now the only person I love that's near me. My brother lives in Cali and I'm in London. Too far. It's tough sometimes.

Thanks for the good content always bob. Fun guy to watch sometimes
appreciate you getting this out the same day bobert love u
MIKE's verse on Celibate is one of the best verses of this year
Yeah man! Dug tf out of this album too, I'm from Detroit so YBP was especially dope 🤣 and that Poetic Justice line was a reference to the actual movie with Tupac and Janet Jackson; and the drive in is a spot outside the city we all go to for that movie experience and it's fasho sketch af!!
Jenn's fucked me up man cause I been seeing that shit since I graduated HS in 2012 😭but I lows appreciate the occasional gun shots and other hood activity that keep Detroit as Black as it's been the past 90 odd years! (Not condoning the pain that comes with it but just a cultural thing 😂)
WhatChu WhatChu WhatChu WhatChu gon do!! Been sayin that shit on repeat hahaha
Two kickass music videos for this album too!! great to see double danny videos in my feed :)
Dude amazing video. Making me tear up at the end bro! Love your analysis
8:13 damn bob, you might’ve just saved my life with this right here
Amazing album and amazing reaction to it Bob !
also i LOVE that you announce and then immediately upload the videos!!!!!! unlike some channels that do only patreon for like 2 weeks
Comment number 6 of begging Bob for more clipping reactions
1:05:44 reminded me of the Fleetwood Mac, Landslide lyrics
Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too
Growing older and growing apart, that's a scary thing man. Beautiful lyrics.
Great analysis as always. This is as much a classic as xxx was.
Bruiser Wolf's Dope Game Stupid would be great reaction too, he has a lot funny bars and is unique
I'm really curious why he still not released new project, many people really liked his debut but almost 3 years passed and he only dropped few featurings since then
he told me on insta my stories got stories(name of the new album) is dropping anytime now
39:50 great interpolation by Danny of “Mind Playin Tricks On Me” by Getto boyz. Classic piece of old school hiphop
CHINESE MIKE 🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️
You would really be doing yourself a disservice if you don't get to the Kings disease/Magic trilogies from Nas' catalogue. I know it sounds like a lot, but sonically it's worth it
i love bob like i love danny brown
Bob, you are the best
Not sure about the first half, but from YBP and onward is amazing, some of the best stuff hes done, you can tell he really cares about his craft.
first song is amazing though
Even the first half has his best work mate
Danny did it again man 😂
Zeke is Isaiah Thomas of the Detroit Pistons. I don't remember a character being murdered at a drive-in in Poetic Justice, but that _did_ happen in John Singleton's previous movie Boyz N The Hood (when Doughboy gets his revenge on his brother's killers)
The beginning of Poetic Justice when Q-Tip (playing Janet Jackson's boyfriend) gets killed at the drive in.
@@K2daMFG Oh shit you're right! Damn the drive-in is _really_ the wrong place to go if you're in a John Singleton movie
been trying to figure it out for 3 days now and i finally got it. the sample used in Tantor is the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy theme😂
Fuck me man, you made me tear up
28:39 Zeke is referring to Pistons PG Isaiah Thomas
Im feeling a lot of stones throw influence on this album
Zeke refers to isiah Thomas from the Detroit pistons in the 80s and 09s, it was his nickname. Great reaction bob!
u so real for that ... thanks bob
28:40 Zeke meaning Isaiah Tomas the pistons guard (might of spelled name wrong but ❤️)
He rhyming better in here for sure
BOB I’ve never been so excited
Not sure if anyone got this info to you, but Danny Brown reference to “Zeke” is Isiah Thomas who was the leader and two time champion with the Detroit Pistons.
Incredible album
“Non drug place going spot” is what it’s called now
Hope you ever react to Quelle Chris's albums. He produced quite a bit on 30 too. His albums are very consistently good and he made a couple of albums with Chris Keys too. Highly recommended!
Danny Brown had a feature on Flatbush Zombies BetteroffDEAD
Ten years ago now too 🤯
don’t trust the genius page for MIKE’s part on celibate, it literally makes no sense idk why it’s so off
I was gonna comment, lots of these genius lyrics don’t seem right if you ask me
Vol. 1: the best reaction there is
I swear that the bar is “buy the ticket take the ride” which is a Hunter S Thompson reference
13:11 LOL, happens to all of us Bob
bass jam was a hard listen. really raw emotional song.
“mouth like i preordered it i download” bob he’s talking bout shooting loads down mouths 😅 otherwise great reaction the pod for me makes danny more human and makes these lyrics hit harder like im rooting for bro no matter what
reactions and emotional displays is one of the true reasons to why I make music
Lol it's pretty wild seeing how inaccurate the Genius transcriptions of the lyrics were at the time you recorded this
Shoot like Zeke is reference to Isiah Thomas from the pistons
DOUBLE DANNY REACTION!
We’re all alone in this together - Dave
