The production on Run For Your Life is insane. They literally drove a van playing music back and forth and recorded it from the street to get that sound.
@@oblivionaccess from what im hearing it really does just sound like a sound pan, which was why i was so confused seeing they actually drove a van with that music like idk, wayyy to clear of sound for that to be the case imo
@@meowmix26 considering clipping's history of "committing to the bit" for sonic authenticity, they almost certainly actually blasted the beat in a hooptie and drove it around to record it.
@@jja2000 hell yeah, that one is composed by Annea Lockwood who is known for her found natural sounds. She has a collection of works called Piano Transplants where she burns and drowns pianos lol
@@aze4964 This album is definietly better in terms of overall narrative and consistancy but I find Visions of bodies being burned way more listenable in repetition. Find myself going back to visions more often
Visions of Bodies Being Burned next! I didn't even think it was possible but they somehow upped basically every aspect on the next one. Crazily visceral sound to the point it makes you physically uncomfortable at many points, brilliant music.
A A Milne is who wrote whinnie the Pooh. Which is where the "tut tut looks like rain" comes from. I can't wait for the sequel reaction to visions of bodies being burned
All In Your Head is the most underrated track in their whole discography. Makes me cry every time. To me, it paints a sort of trail of tears map articulating the sort of ancestral pain of the sex worker from the past to the present. I don't know if that makes sense. It feels almost like a biblical parable of a street sex worker cursed to sort of walk the street for eternity. I can never get through those last few lines without tearing up.
It's amazing how good this album is and that the sequel/sister album Visions of Bodies Being Burned blows it out of the water. That reaction to Attunement though is so good. "You win this round, clipping." Easily the most haunting song on the album even if songs like Blood of the Fang are better
I disagree with “it blows it out of the water” because I think it depends on what you want. Personally I think the atmosphere and the actual horror movie feel created by There existed an addiction to blood is better than Visions. I think Visions has a lot more tracks that stand on their own and are a little more listenable as actual songs but for me There existed is a better overall experience. I absolutely adore both albums and all of clippings albums for that matter but this is just my thoughts.
@@1_f1N_1 I understand that perspective. I really like this album too, but even comparing interludes and closing tracks it feels like Visions has a more consistently good horror vibe. Better as an experience for me, whereas TEAATB has higher peaks on a track to track basis. With some growing pains going full horrorcore in this soudn and manner
Was excited for you to finally get around to this one just in time for halloween. Im sure the 18 mins of a piano burning doesnt lend itself well to reaction videos lmao but its such a vibe to just let play out while you sit with the experience
I really think you’ll enjoy Visions of Bodies Being Burned. Personally my fav clipping album, love it so much, hopefully you can squeeze it in during halloween time!
while i wish you started with midcity or clppng, i feel like this one is actually a pretty good album to start with yk, even without having any previous knowledge or experience with the group's music it's still a fantastic listen. Disregarding that, it's a great album and i love it to death, same with the sequel visions of bodies being burned, it's just as good if not better
Fascinating album, the physicality of the production is insane - it feels like it’s about to crush you. I do have trouble with the abstract nature of it, it starts blending together for me at some point, might need more time with it. Got tickets for their live show, that should be a trip 😅
Clipping's patience is their strongest attribute if you ask me. They aren't afraid to drag out an introduction or some atmosphere just to add that cherry on the top for the experience they're aiming for.
Also ngl, I like noise music lmao. The two producers are noise artists that went on to film score and produce in clipping. It can be weird to approach, but clipping (especially early clipping, like CLPPNG and Midcity) was definitely what first got me pretty into it.
The thing I enjoy so much about the stories is that in some way they're extremely interesting in a music theory sense (time signatures for story 7 for example) but the story is also really coherent in a way, but still very applicable to the album itself.
Amazing album and amazing reaction. I sent a message about it but if you wanna learn more about the Black Panthers, two things that are super educational and great are Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution - a documentary on youtube. It also has interviews with members. Several members are still serving life sentences completely unjustly The Autobiography of Assata Shakur. A book by Assata, and also Tupac’s godmother. Her friend was killed by a cop, the cop was killed, Assata went to prison in a men’s prison, broke out, lives in exile in Cuba to this day, politicians still talk about getting her locked back up because she was a #1 most wanted “criminal”
You definitely should check out their other albums, Clipping has one of the most impressive discographies of any rap group, or really any group that I know. Also, have you considered doing non-hip hop reactions occasionally? I know you use the "rocker expanding into other genres" which is certainly cool, but I think a lot of your viewers like your reactions for you and how you analyze art and approach new stuff with an open mind. There's been a lot of great music across a bunch of different genres released this year, and obviously a bunch of great hidden or semi-hidden gems for years past to discover.
I'll be open to bleeding into other genres once I get all the hip-hop classics under my belt. I still have way too many albums on my plate to open up interest in other genres.
Incredible album love clipping and I like how you approached it as a novel narrative some times. Blood on the Fang is my favorite track and if you really dive into every lyric is like a history book in itself. Almost every lyric in that last verse is a reference to a black civil rights activist. A lot of them I hadn’t even heard of
this album is one of my favorite to have on vinyl! my copy is a clear with a blood splatter design, but the thing that makes it so cool is how the record ends on vinyl I haven't played piano burning on vinyl yet, but from what I've heard, that final track (which takes up the entire fourth side) ends by not triggering the needle to stop, which causes the needle itself to go over onto the sticker on the middle of the vinyl. Makes it so your album looks haunted it's so cool!!
Just made it to the end-so glad you want to do Visions of Bodies Being Burned! I think it really expands on this project/the themes/stories and has so many memorable tracks. Love it even more. Can't wait!
Talking about artistic intent and the wall of harsh noise in La Mala Ordina. Someone pointed out on Clipping's channel that Daveed says "Your third act really drags, The structure falls apart." at the start of the song, thought that might interest you.
You should react to Soundtracks for the Blind by Swans sometime this month. It's an older experimental rock/ambient record, so maybe it's a bit off your catalogue for the kind of content you're looking for right now, but it's really worth a listen. The only album (or piece of music in general) to really unnerve me, would be great for spooky season :)
when you talked about blood of the fang and not hearin about the black panthers, i understand that whole heartedly. i was never taught about them in school even though that was EXTREMELY critical to the civil rights movement. i only heard about them through my black mom growin up (i’m half black half white for context) and i highly suggest watchin a small documentary on them whenever you have the chance since the “policing the police” part of the organization was crucial to race relations in the 60s and onwards. with the black panthers bein a big part of my family’s history on my mom’s side, and that fact i was NEVER taught that in school despite bein how influential they are, it really connected me to this song in particular off this amazin album. love the vids Bob ✊🏽❤️
It's so frustrating learning about what I was never taught... and seeing a bigger picture at play in that educational structure. Obviously, there's only so much time in a day, so a choice must be made on what children are taught and what isn't, but it's very suspect the things I was NOT taught in school versus what I was.
Watched the patreon version but came here to leave a like. Also Bob, not sure how familiar with Daveed Diggs of clipping you are but he also does musical theatre. He’s one of the main characters in Hamilton and he’s also been in the kids show Sesame Street which I find hilarious considering the things he raps about
Amazing reaction to a amazing album. Also since it’s the only song you were confused on I’m Pretty sure the annotation on Attunement was right and that song is just about s*icide
The interpretation of “nothing is safe” I subscribe to, is that the “Body sent to the coroner” in the 3rd verse is the ghost/Angel throughout the song. He was killed in the last job they did and now he is back for vengeance. That’s why the man running recognizes the way he walks.
In Run for Your Life, I imagine the runner is Daveed, but animated like the video game Dead By Daylight. The beat in the car that keeps fading in and out is La Chat circling the neighborhood slowing, looking up and down every alley, hunting him. She has a weapon in her and every time she says " you ain't scared is you?" she taps it in her hand 3 times.
Other people might have told you this before, Bob, but in case it hasn't come up, clipping is also sometimes spelled as CLPPNG (also the name of one of their albums). This is a reference to the fact that none of their songs are written in first person- there's no "I". It adds a very strange, surreal feeling to the songs, feels like it's not that it's happening to Daveed, it could be happening to anyone. Could be happening to you. By the way, I know you're thinking about swapping Thriller for VOBBB later this month (which I think is the right idea, Thriller isn't really Halloween-themed beyond the title track), but also be sure to check out the track Story 2 off of the aforementioned self-titled album CLPPNG at some point. One of the weirdest-produced songs in hip-hop of all time. I won't spoil it, you just have to hear it.
39:11 I’m my opinion, they were trying to replicate to feeling of shock. Not like “suprise!!!”, but like medical, physiological shock. That feeling when you’re so hurt your face goes numb and you feel like you can’t see but you see everything at the same time. I feel like they wanted to bring a sense of reality back to the song. They’re reminding you of how terrible it would be to go through something like this. We as the listeners are forced to experience this ‘rappers’ last moments with him. It’s a reminder that, unlike what the rapper thought, this isn’t cool. It isn’t fun. People ready die. I LOVE CLIPPING
Yesssss!!! Such a great group, can't wait to the next friday with Injury Reserve. Hope you listen to the self titled CLLPNG. and Misery and Splendor too, all their albums are amazing
Id find it very interesting to see you react to some new school underground music. One artist I would definitely recommend to you is destroy lonely. He is signed to Playboi cartis label called opium. Destroy has a lot of very good unreleased/leaked music, but he recently dropped the album “no stylist” and I think it’s one of the best albums of this year. He often uses rock inspired beats so I think you’ll like it. On the song SWGSKOOL for example he uses a deftones sample and it’s beautiful. Love the vids bob, you the man.
yoo! you should listen to a J dilla project if you haven’t already, especially the album “Donuts”. it’s a production masterpiece and it may not be lyrical or anything but it will just show how far production can go in rap
Yeah this and Visions I think of as a horror anthology project, with 2 'seasons' (albums) So in theory they could release some more projects in this style and I'd be all for it.
Even if I don’t agree with some of your assessments, I love the way you break lyrics down. It feels like the opposite of how I think, which is so dope, gives me a whole new perspective on the music.
I do get your comment about the end of La Mala Ordina "just being noise", but I do find myself zoning out and enjoying it... Something about the texture of it and the different changes the noise goes through over the duration of it makes it sound really satisfying. I do find myself questioning when it's going to end as it's blasting my ears, but almost in a way where I'm enjoying the anticipation, not "I can't wait for this to be over with".
I think there is something deeper than just the basic story that daveed is telling on this album. I think you could draw a line between the evil that he is rapping about and maybe a force in the real world.
I was taking a walk with my dog at night listening to this album and it was an incredible experience, the La Mala Ordina last part freaked the f out of me😂
If you liked this then PLEAAAASE react to Splendor & Misery. It's my favourite album of theirs, it's a shortish listen and it's like a sci-fi concept album about a slave overtaking the ship he's being transported on and esentially being stranded in space with an AI he develops a relationship with.
I like how "The Show" basically sounds like a dark catwalk or Billy Mays type thing while it's basically talking about a darknet redroom, where someone gets tortured on a livestream you can attend by paying money.
I do think it's important to know that Clipping is a pretty political group. Think of Daveed the same way you'd think of Killer Mike. There's a reason the annotations tend to lean into a more political interpretation of the lyrics.
"A burning piano? Nah, I'm gonna skip this shit."
*string pops*
"Hold up, this shit is interesting"
😂
The production on Run For Your Life is insane. They literally drove a van playing music back and forth and recorded it from the street to get that sound.
what? they did?

Oh yeah! They did it with more of the songs. It being "Field Recordings", Piano Burning is a literal Field Recording of a Piano Burning.
@@jja2000 hell yeah, that one is composed by Annea Lockwood who is known for her found natural sounds. She has a collection of works called Piano Transplants where she burns and drowns pianos lol
Let’s gooo one of my favorite albums of the last couple years
Damn I’d hate to see what the other favs are. Probably a buncha mid
@@ezrahaskard3527You thought you did something 🤡
Please don't skip on clipping's Visions of Bodies Being Burned
basically the better version of this album
imma say plz don’t skip CLPPNG… or even Splendour & Misery
@@cenjal1665 I really just don’t think it’s better this album is so much more cohesive and consistent to me
@@aze4964 This album is definietly better in terms of overall narrative and consistancy but I find Visions of bodies being burned way more listenable in repetition. Find myself going back to visions more often
@@garanhollow4493 and also don't skip mid city that album is great too
I don't think I've ever been this excited for a new Bob reaction.
Visions of Bodies Being Burned next! I didn't even think it was possible but they somehow upped basically every aspect on the next one. Crazily visceral sound to the point it makes you physically uncomfortable at many points, brilliant music.
It's kinda hard to believe honestly, given how well they did with the production on this album
A A Milne is who wrote whinnie the Pooh. Which is where the "tut tut looks like rain" comes from. I can't wait for the sequel reaction to visions of bodies being burned
Daveed Diggs underrated as hell as an MC.
YES! So glad you're listening to this, it's the perfect album to listen around Halloween time. Visions Of Bodies Being Burned is also a must listen
All In Your Head is the most underrated track in their whole discography. Makes me cry every time. To me, it paints a sort of trail of tears map articulating the sort of ancestral pain of the sex worker from the past to the present. I don't know if that makes sense.

You should definitely listen to its sequel album at night. Would love to see you do that video as well this October!
great reaction, and I really feel like visions of bodies being burned is an even better album, can't wait
Vobbb is way better. I find I only like half of there existed but love all of vobbb

PLEASEEE BOB WE NEED THE OTHER ALBUMS CLIPPING. IS SO UNDERRATED
This is a classic album. Glad to see you go deeper into this music that so many of us love.
Visions of bodies being burned next?
Man, I was so hoping you'd eventually do Clipping.. Genuinely some of the most forward-thinking, cinematic and creative hip-hop I've ever heard
I really think you’ll enjoy Visions of Bodies Being Burned. Personally my fav clipping album, love it so much, hopefully you can squeeze it in during halloween time!

This album is a masterpiece I could only listen to once
It’s such I weird album because I know it’s great but I only listen to one song often
@@Dickinabox I love pretty much every track on this thing, took some getting used to though
I've been having that experience a little as well. They've done such a great job making this album intense, it's almost TOO intense.
@@bobthepoppop well you'll definitely enjoy the laid back mellow sound of "Visions of Bodies Being Burned".....
Fascinating album, the physicality of the production is insane - it feels like it’s about to crush you. I do have trouble with the abstract nature of it, it starts blending together for me at some point, might need more time with it. Got tickets for their live show, that should be a trip 😅

THANK UOU BOB I LOVE YOU I LIVE CLIPPING OMGGGG
Holy shit I’m losing my mind
PLEASE do visions of bodies being burned!!!! I know you said you would. Pleaseeee. Would be amazing.
Being someone who listens to harsh noise musicians like Merzbow, I really love the cacophony at the end of La Mala Ordina.
The Rita is one of my biggest musical inspirations lol making noise is so fun
Incredible album love clipping and I like how you approached it as a novel narrative some times. Blood on the Fang is my favorite track and if you really dive into every lyric is like a history book in itself. Almost every lyric in that last verse is a reference to a black civil rights activist.

Run for your life is probably the best produced song I’ve ever heard and it doesn’t even have a beat most of the time
Just made it to the end-so glad you want to do Visions of Bodies Being Burned! I think it really expands on this project/the themes/stories and has so many memorable tracks. Love it even more. Can't wait!
You gotta listen to Visions of Bodies Being Burned!! Love this reaction so much
My favorite track from them is “Story 2” I feel like you should check it out on your own time. It’s very interesting
he should react to the entire self titled project, it's so good
Self titled is my personal favorite, but VOBBB is also really good.
Talking about artistic intent and the wall of harsh noise in La Mala Ordina. Someone pointed out on Clipping's channel that Daveed says "Your third act really drags,
The structure falls apart." at the start of the song, thought that might interest you.
HOLY SHIT!!! I haven’t seen any of my fav reactors take a look at my favorite group of all time! I’m so excited to see what you think.

phenomenal album, i don't think he'd do a video reaction to it though cause it's not hip-hop
Ageed. The only album that has ever made me truly feel terror
when you talked about blood of the fang and not hearin about the black panthers, i understand that whole heartedly. i was never taught about them in school even though that was EXTREMELY critical to the civil rights movement. i only heard about them through my black mom growin up (i’m half black half white for context) and i highly suggest watchin a small documentary on them whenever you have the chance since the “policing the police” part of the organization was crucial to race relations in the 60s and onwards. with the black panthers bein a big part of my family’s history on my mom’s side, and that fact i was NEVER taught that in school despite bein how influential they are, it really connected me to this song in particular off this amazin album. love the vids Bob ✊🏽❤️

VISIONS OF BODIES BEING BURNED SOON.
You should check out Benny the Butcher, really brilliant lyrical gangster rap, similar lane to Freddie Gibbs
I heard a couple singles with him... I like his style.

He’s one of the main characters in Hamilton and he’s also been in the kids show Sesame Street which I find hilarious considering the things he raps about
It is funny, I would have never guessed those gigs for a guy rapping about the topics on this album
Amazing reaction to a amazing album.
Also since it’s the only song you were confused on I’m Pretty sure the annotation on Attunement was right and that song is just about s*icide
I've been waiting for this one! Really excited to see you react to this. I'd love to see Visions of Bodies Bring Burned as well!
Its been just over a year since ive subbed to u, you're by far my favorite music reaction channel.
The interpretation of “nothing is safe” I subscribe to, is that the “Body sent to the coroner” in the 3rd verse is the ghost/Angel throughout the song. He was killed in the last job they did and now he is back for vengeance. That’s why the man running recognizes the way he walks.
oh cool... I like it!
first time ever hearing about these guys and this album ever
Daveed Diggs was a cast member in the uber successful Broadway musical Hamilton, plus he can rap like a demon. Just a prodigious talent
In Run for Your Life, I imagine the runner is Daveed, but animated like the video game Dead By Daylight. The beat in the car that keeps fading in and out is La Chat circling the neighborhood slowing, looking up and down every alley, hunting him. She has a weapon in her and every time she says " you ain't scared is you?" she taps it in her hand 3 times.
That "chhh" sound you hear is a shotgun mic being jammed into glass.
22:15 i just noticed these lyrics also have a maths scheme; power, number, lesser, add, are all maths words
Please listen to their newer album “Visons of Bodies Being Burned”. It’s the sequel and it’s way better, and that’s saying a lot!
Amazing album. The end of All In Your Head is fuckn amazing, favourite track

Should be better now. I must have accidentally used the uncut file for placing the time stamps
yeah they good now 👍🏾
This guy would love splendor and misery
their other album Splendor and Misery is an incredible narrative space opera album
For Bone Thugs, I always felt they took a big step up with their LP East 1999 Eternal, after Creepin on ah Come Up.
Please react to Visions of Bodies Being Burned. It's really a part of this album. Both albums, together, really form one album.
visions of bodies being burned pleaseeeeee
Yesssss!!! Such a great group, can't wait to the next friday with Injury Reserve.
Hope you listen to the self titled CLLPNG. and Misery and Splendor too, all their albums are amazing
HELL. YES. I love this album and how you do VOBBB soon!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh yes

That’s one of the girls from three 6 mafia that you liked so much, not Gangsta boo but the only other one who’s on their stuff, La Chat
I look at this album as a sort of horror anthology. Rather than 1 continuous story, every song gives you a separate little story.
Yeah this and Visions I think of as a horror anthology project, with 2 'seasons' (albums)
So in theory they could release some more projects in this style and I'd be all for it.
Thursday by The Weeknd Bob!!! You almost gave House of Balloons a 10, judging by your tastes, Thursday will be your favourite of the mixtapes.

Even if I don’t agree with some of your assessments, I love the way you break lyrics down. It feels like the opposite of how I think, which is so dope, gives me a whole new perspective on the music.
I do get your comment about the end of La Mala Ordina "just being noise", but I do find myself zoning out and enjoying it... Something about the texture of it and the different changes the noise goes through over the duration of it makes it sound really satisfying. I do find myself questioning when it's going to end as it's blasting my ears, but almost in a way where I'm enjoying the anticipation, not "I can't wait for this to be over with".
I think there is something deeper than just the basic story that daveed is telling on this album. I think you could draw a line between the evil that he is rapping about and maybe a force in the real world.
OhOHOHOHOHO, IM SO HAPPY YOUR REACTING TO CLIPPING.
YOOOOOOOOOO HOW DID I MISS THIS
Tut tut it looks like rain is a reference to Winnie the Pooh
"i can't wait to play this for my wife" i burst out laughing lmao
Would love to see you go over CLPPNG at some point, I think that's where a lot of clipping's best singles are personally.
It’s my highest honor to be the first comment
i play this album every halloween. i got a lot of hallowen hip hop but this might been the one of the best i seen
Wow i was just listening to this on my ride home. What a coincidence
hope you react to visions of bodies being burned some time soon
I was taking a walk with my dog at night listening to this album and it was an incredible experience, the La Mala Ordina last part freaked the f out of me😂
If you liked this then PLEAAAASE react to Splendor & Misery. It's my favourite album of theirs, it's a shortish listen and it's like a sci-fi concept album about a slave overtaking the ship he's being transported on and esentially being stranded in space with an AI he develops a relationship with.
I like how "The Show" basically sounds like a dark catwalk or Billy Mays type thing while it's basically talking about a darknet redroom, where someone gets tortured on a livestream you can attend by paying money.
holy shit this is a very welcome surprise
FUCKING FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait for Visions of Bodies Being Burned, that’s my favorite one!
Please check out Mista Thug Isolation by Lil Ugly Mane, it's pretty similar to Three 6 Mafia but with a more modern and trap influenced production
In a way, we're all lugubrious
Imma let the Uzi spit
I do think it's important to know that Clipping is a pretty political group. Think of Daveed the same way you'd think of Killer Mike. There's a reason the annotations tend to lean into a more political interpretation of the lyrics.
Ohhhh clipping. clipping clipping clipping.
If you like daveed Diggs he is also on this musical called Hamilton
