'Jesus died for our sins, Walter died for a coat'. This line has stuck with me since this project dropped

pmo some more songs by her thats the only one ik

Showed PROM / KING to my tenth grade English teacher one day and she said that this was one of the greatest piece of poetry ever expressed
In 2013 I was in high school and showed my English teacher sing about me dying of thirst, and she said the same. Cool moment
I wrote part of a music essay on Wav Files by Lupe. I think that song would wow any poet or writer
@@slackstarfish8133top 10 hip hop song of all time for me along with PROM / KING
PROM / KING is one of the best storytelling songs of all time easily
My personal favorite. Mona Lisa and Stan are close. Stan would be 1 if it was true.
@@jackhastings9750 there's a lot that can make that list for me. You Never Know and Dancing With The Devil by Immortal Technique would be up there. Sing About Me I'm Dying Of Thirty by Kendrick. WAV Files by Lupe Fiasco. PROM / KING can sit up there with the elite of the elite.

@@jackhastings9750mona lisa got nothing on this

The fact that Walt is the one singing “I just hope I make it to tomorrow” breaks me everytime. Just the fact that music existed before he passed and was put on this song is heartbreaking to me. And the “just another day” like it’s something that’s just a given, no big deal. It always makes me emotional. And of course then heaven all around me hits you as this gorgeous song that feels like a celebration of Walt, but when you really digest how Saba is rapping from the perspective of his dead cousin coming to the realization he’s died and that he’s slowly going up to heaven, I mean fuck man. It’s tragic and gorgeous. It’s just represents the beauty of how music can make you feel more than almost anything else. It’s emotion with dimension.
I always thought that was Mick Jenkins singing that. Sounds just like him
I had no idea that the outro of Prom King was his cousin. That was the 2nd time ive almost cried to this album.
Was just about to comment this, damn..
Sideways Bob activated
This comment shouldn't be funny but it cracked me up
BUSY / SIRENS one of my favorite songs ever. It’s introspection all around is amazing
bobs gone through some crazy character development, one day decided to dabble into rap to see if he likes it, next thing you know he’s shedding tears to it, ignorance is bliss 😂
You know bobs gonna cry when he hits the side pose
In 2019 my stepmom died in a single person car accident, many years later I was told it wasn’t an accident but was self inflicted . When I heard this album at the time it helped me so much with the feelings of grief that overwhelmed me, I love this album to my core. I have a tattoo of the title on the side of my hand. I love this album dearly.
Hey man, sorry to hear about your loss. Hope you've been able to process that grief well over time and be loved & supported by those around you. Glad this album could help you out, and pray you're doing well 🤙🏾
One of the most underrated and underappreciated records of the last decade. I've listened to it through and through so many times. Glad you finally got to it.
I have a lot of love and respect for Anthony Fantano but him giving Care For Me a "meh/10" has always sat with me as his worst review. He pretty much goes out of his way to avoid mentioning anything the album does well and all his criticisms come primarily from his biases and weird off base assumptions he makes about the album/chicago scene (I.E. claiming Saba is biting off of Chance when they came up together at the same time). I don't think Fantano brings up Walt's passing or the overall narrative and themes of the album once, I assume he only did a single listen or two and just decided to shit on the album for whatever reason...
Not trying to lead a hate brigade on Fantano, he's still one of my favorite music reviewers. But he's wrong on this one and he deserves the smoke and I needed to get that off my chest.
@@7mook7it’s easily one of his worst reviews. He pigeonholed all Chicago rappers as chance clones which wasn’t true at all. The whole review he just downplayed Sabas legitimacy as a unique artist, it really had nothing to do with the music.
@@7mook7 I honestly cant stand fantano most of the time idk why theres so little hate towards him
@AH-sv3eb cuz at the end of the day he's just sharing his opinion on the internet, I don't think anyone deserves actual hate and vitriol for that. People are mean as hell on the internet for no reason when they could just not watch the reviews instead.
Personally I see a lot of value in his reviews even if I don't see eye to eye with him on every project. I grew up reading video game reviews in magazines and online and only ever having the vaguest idea who was writing them, what other kinds of games they liked, etc. Now I can watch reviewers on RUclips and get to know them more and understand their preferences and biases which in turn informs my expectations for what they're reviewing better.
PROM/KING is one of the only songs I can call perfect
What other songs would you call perfect? Just curious!
@@loutz9603 kody blu 31, walkin, through the wire
@@rianhuyny1452 good choices
@@rianhuyny1452fair list but listen to more music
Always loved how the track speeds up after the prom party encounter, as if speeding through a series of life events with the Pivot crew. Only slowing back down on the tragic events. Excellent story telling
SABA-ites STAND UP, WE WON YALL 🙌🏾
sabaites ain't it
@@user-fs7zm6zc7s Sababies?
Who the hell came up with this name?😂
could have just said saba fans bro
Dawg hell naw 😭😭😭
Now to wait 2 years for Bob to get to Few Good Things
Few good things is soooo goood much different then Care for Me but it's amazing regardless
@@cahrles2687yeah it feels like he’s come more to terms with the death and it shows progress in a happier tone change
@@gutsbrsk So much happier
Man I’m crying with u brother. Haven’t heard these in a while but it gets me every time
Idk if it will be said but his dad is also a musician and during saba’s tiny desk, he has his dad help him with vocals
One of the first vinyls I ever got. This is in my top ten of favorite albums of all time. I just love everything about it. The writing, the production, his delivery. The hooks, how cohesive it feels. This is one of those defining albums to me, there’s really nothing like it. To me, this is one of the most impressively produced rap projects I’ve ever heard. It just feels so textured, emotional, and warm purely just through the music.
Side note: I knew this project was gonna make you cry, I’m right there with you😭
Same for me man, one of the two vinyls I own. Shame it has an error in LIFE though which skips the song for a second
@@tunatamkan1819your vinyl might be warped if it’s skipping, I don’t think mine does that
Don’t forget Mick Jenkins the waters for the 10 year anniversary! Love the channel and your raw feelings for the music
round out the chicago run too!!!
@@ugonwigwe5136I’m out the window looking real stupid
every time i remember fantano's review of this album i get so pissed off
Bob holy shit I searched this up cause I wanted to see someone react to it and then found out the best reactioner did it omg I’m so excited you are amazing man great timing
bro same exact thing 💀 i was just like i wonder if anyone new has reacted to it and THE GOAT reacted to it like what a great surprise
I heard this album first in 2020, during all the unrest and upheaval. BUSY/ SIRENS had me hooked instantly and by the time I reached PROM / KING, I was a mess. I sobbed like a baby and remained inconsolable for an entire evening.
Thankfully, I'd also listened to Chance the Rapper's Coloring Book a few weeks before so I used it as a pick-me-up.
Your reaction took me back to that place. I had to pause multiple times to keep myself from breaking down.
Roger Ebert, a film critic, once said, "Cinema is like a machine that generates empathy." I imagine this applies to music as well, and all good art. How can we listen to a well-made album and not come away with a greater appreciation for the beauty and disaster of the human experience? Our prejudice and ignorance are chipped away at every time we put ourselves in someone else's shoes. We can cross space and time to inhabit their emotions. It's phenomenal.
Excellent reaction as always! Thank you for continuing to do this.
PS: it would be wonderful to see your reaction to Coloring Book. It's a huge step up from Acid Rap (It won Best Rap Album at the Grammys) and is one of the best albums of 2016.
PROM / KING will never fail to make me shed a tear, every single time man
I cried when I heard this album for the first time to and hearing heaven all around me with you just had me in tears again
Truly one of my favorite records of all time. Bee recommending since the Kendrick reactions. Love the content man keep it up. Also you should definitely check out his newest project that came out in 2022 called “few could things” such a touching and mature project.
bucket list is also great, better than few good things imo
few good things
I can already tell by the thumbnail this is gonna be a great video
I appreciate your vulnerability towards the end of the video, I felt the same way listening to these songs
YESSSSSSS I REQUESTED THIS SO MUCH AND NEVER THOUGHT THE DAY WOULD COME LETS GOOOO
Cried like a baby :,,,,) even after all the years this album just ruins me especially heaven all around me, the moment I found out he was rapping from Walt’s perspective I just crumbled, idk how Saba was even able to make that song but I’m thankful he did
Great reaction, hopefully you get chance to check Few Good Things by Saba at some point
Also thank u for mentioning Gaza. Major respect
This came out at the perfect time thank you bob ❤️
The other day I had dreamed that I died in an accident in broad daylight. Minutes after the accident I appear as a ghost near where my death occurred and among those people I find my mother crying. At that moment I started to think that I could not give her a last kiss goodbye, a hug that I love so much and that I will never be able to feel it again, that I will never know about her and she will not know about me until her last days.
At that moment I started to cry and I told myself that I could not end this way, I did not want to leave without saying goodbye to her and I could not do anything about it.
The despair I felt was so vivid that I wake up in tears.
Watching this video made me remember such a dream
great video like always bob❤
This is a beautiful album and reaction. The title and concept of this album is so simple it becomes amazingly complex.
SUPER underrated project, I have this up there with GKMC
Saba released a followup to this album called few good things in 2022, and it paints a more hopeful and optimistic view of the world than what this album is.
started crying with you at the end of the reaction lmao, love you and your videos bob. thank you for reacting to one of my favorite albums ever 🫶
Bob you’re the GOAT fr, im one of those regular requesters of this and I can’t fkin WAIT
I havent been a subscriber but I have been consistently viewing, I was in the military for 4 years and while I never saw combat there was so much suicide, to an unbelievable degree.
Whenever Bob was talking about whether he doesn't know which one would be worse, being there or not I understood that completely, but what got me is when he said
"thats just theft"
Bob I have felt numb for so long because of unfortunate things I have experienced from my time in service, but this video has shown me so much wisdom, im not getting stuck on the island again brother, I hope you know how much you have affected me, thank you Bob.
So happy you’re finally getting to this album 🙌🏻 his previous album “bucket list” Is absolutely incredible start to finish. One of my all time favorites
So fortunate I got to see this live. All around so fantastic. Got me through a lot of troubles and reminded me that there is such a power in writing and telling your story.
I waited years 😭
this is one of my favorite projects in recent years. thanks for giving it a listen and some attention!! this is one that grows with you
One of the best albums in recent years. This and Swimming from Mac got me through some tough times. Thank you for reacting to this. 🙏
one of my favourite rap albums ever. the only album to make me cry
The fkn power of music, man🥺
I never even heard of this cat before and this was some shit I didn't even know I needed to hear.
busy/sirens is one of my favourite songs ever
Oh hey what’s up
There’s a select few albums I’d do anything to experience for the first time again and this is 1000% one of them. It’s raw rap, it’s poetry, it’s an amazing story, it’s captivating and it’s sad. A beautiful listen
one of my all time favorite albums, means so much to me. cant wait to watch this i know bob will love it!
You probably won’t read this but the person “squeak” he also mentioned passed away a couple years after this was released
He was also on his music group
i forgot about this channel when i got busy with college. I'm so happy to see you reacting to this!
Thank you for all these beautiful little moments over the past year or two.
Wow beautiful reaction Bob I was in tears with you
THANK YOU BOB I BEEN PRAYING FOR THIS FOREVER 🙏
One of my favourite albums of all time and I’ve been waiting for this video for YEARS
one of my fav albums since it came out, as Ive been maturing the album changes in my revisits. watching this helped put the final pieces together, thank you
bro. i just randomly searched this and seeing it posted just days ago makes me incredibly ecstatic
Ive waited for this moment since you started doing album reactions. This album genuinely got me through the worst times of my life im so glad I can watch someone appreciate it for the first time. Everyone talks about prom/king and rightfully so but heaven all around me always gets me man. Just the idea of rapping from Walt's perspective and the execution ive never heard anything like that on an album.
Bob really got me crying to Heaven all around me
my favourite album ever so happy to see u reacting to this
we gotta protect bob at all costs
Wrote an essay on this album in high school ❤️❤️ one of my favorite albums of all time
One of my favorite albums of all time 💯
This album got me through undergrad. I’m so glad you listened to it, Bob!!
Just came across your channel ! I had to suscribe you’re amazing 🙏🏽 care for me is one of my favorite albums and I loooove your perspective
Sheeesh I remember suggesting this song a year or two ago. I’m happy you experienced it.
BOB I KNOW U WONT SEE THIS BUT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR YEARSSSSSS AHHHHHH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
I’ve waited for this album for so long. Side ways bob is coming. 😭😭
LETS GOOOOOO I HAVE SOMETHING TO WATCH WHEN I GET HOME IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANK YOU BOBERT
bob you talking at the end about how life is everything, the good the bad the ugly and the beautiful, made me break out in tears. i needed to hear that. thank you for the videos you make and thanks to saba for making one of the most meaningful albums of all time
Favorite review ever! Raw. Earned a new subscriber
I know people have criticized this album (fantano) for his rapping being amateur, etc but idk man I feel like his flow and breath control are so good sometimes. His tiny desk especially shows this.
Bob u deserve more subs love u!!
Audibly yelled in excitement when I saw this post lol
Probably the most impactful single album of all time for me. It's funny how different your life and your experience can be from someone else, yet still come away with such similar emotions. I forget how this feels sometimes, but Saba is just incredibly vivid in the way he expresses his emotion.
Tracks like Fighter, Grey, Prom/King, etc. hit such a specific emotions for me that nothing else ever has. Being able to relate so hard emotionally and draw parallels is extremely therapeutic and makes the loss of Walt in the end almost unbearable.
From knowing nothing about Saba or Walt to feeling an incredible amount of loss and grief... all in less than an hour. The talent and maturity speaks volumes, this album will forever have a mark on me and I'm glad you got to experience it too.
LIFE and PROM / KING are so good ive been playing these 2 songs the most ever since the album dropped like its been in my rotation for abt 6 yrs now
Honestly, I'm surprised you’re just getting to this now! truly an amazing project. It dropped at a very pivotal point in my life. This and projects like TA13OO, helped get me through the confusion of it all and be able to manage.
FINALLY BOB one of my favorite albums all time
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ive been waiting for this one since I found your channel!!!!
Bob, i am one of the ppl who have commented on every video for this album (as well as pray for Paris)😂, but I’m so glad you got around to this. What a gem. I knew you would enjoy it, the mix of emotions and energy that Saba provides us is incredible. Glad you loved it
I hope this means you'll listen to his most recent album then. Care for Me was one of the first rap albums I truly loved, but I think Few Good Things steps it up. You can see just how much he's matured as a songwriter and a person between the two projects.
whole album crazy and perfect for your breakdownz
nice thanks for reacting to this :) 10/10 album 4me
I love this video, and I love you as a human.
I was wondering when this would drop like an hour or two ago 😭🙏🏽
This is one of favorite albums period. Saba is extremely talented.
Yes, finally I’m so happy your reacting to it
fucking love this album bro cant wait
Thank you Bob
this is my favorite rap album and i am excited to hear your thoughts
oh my god yes!! been waiting for you to get to this one forever lol
Every time I relisten to an album with Bob it hits 10 times harder it’s crazy best reviewer on yt
OH MY GOD ITS ABOUT TIME. I AM SO EXCITED
great reaction as always bob. This is one of my all time favorite albums and I am so happy to see you enjoy it, unlike some other reaction/review channels on youtube (we are looking at you fantano lmao). But an absolute classic in my eyes and I am excited for the additional thoughts. Thank you again bob!
FINALLY!!! THANK YOU BOB
we love you bob!
Finally! 🔥LIFE is and will always be my fav song on here.
Spin Move is insane.
Definitely have to do the bucket list next.
love you bob
Omg lets goooo this is one of my favourite albums ever
Easily one of my favourite records ever. So powerful. I dont think much can be said about it that hasnt already been, but I will never not be moved by this album
I’m so glad people are starting to discover Saba. He’s one of the best out rn.
