It’s literally the “yeah I made a concept album the concept is that it’s bad” meme
“Haha im a joke, y’all!”
- Logic right now
Everything Now by Arcade Fire moment
"I was just pretending to be retarded" type beat
@@austinz9862 Completely agree. Unbelievable how much worse they got after that album.
Scaled and Icy by twenty one pilots moment
Logic the type of kid to say “i wasn’t even playing” when he becomes it in tag
and he calls "times" right before getting tagged
Logic the type to turn the Xbox off when he’s losing
Dude that hits too hard you can't just say that 💀
Exactly what it is. It makes him seem immature and unwilling to accept criticism.
@@CQLQSSUS because he is
I think Logic is really smart with COADM. He puts it out, gives it a bad score, says it’s a social experiment, and starts to analyze it himself. Such an intelligent and hardworking individual
🗿
🗿
Ha ha Fantano and Logic look alike
Damn I think this meme is getting a little crazy lol
Took me a while to realise 😂
The best kind of satire; satirizing something by just... doing it
sigma move.
The new Matrix movie is literally THIS
Cuties
Sometimes it works.
Punk band Reagan Youth satirized the KKK and Nazis by using their imagery on their album covers.
Their songs were pretty staunchly against them though.
Well that’s the inherent issue with satire, you run the risk of just becoming the exact thing ur trying to criticize… it’s happened time and time again and look I honestly don’t think Logic is good enough of an artist to pull off satire successfully. Not to sound racist but I lowkey feel like it’s the white boy in him that’s holding him back lmfaoooooooo
Ain't no way we're starting to retcon albums now 😭
Lmaoo. He deadass said "Yeah that wasn't canon" 😂
lmfaooo
@@starmorpheus Mf said 'that's part of the extended universe'
@@starmorpheus You’d be surprised how many artists have done this. When your fanbase shoots a work of yours down for long enough, you’ll eventually wish it didn’t exist lmao. Sad thing is Logic’s bad work overshadows his good material nowadays. And dude has made great songs
Logic is pulling a JK Rowling off.
“There’s more to being self-aware than consciously shooting yourself in the foot in front of a crowd of people and when they turn at you and think *wow that person’s stupid* you internally think to yourself *yeah I knew it was stupid I knew you were gonna think it was stupid okay?* “
(Steve Rogers voice) *I understood that reference*
Who’s quote is this I’ve heard it before
@@brianmcdermott8693 Anthony himself said it in the Not Good episode for the I'm Brain EP
@@CakeRulesAll thank you
I could hear his voice while reading this
I'll be honest if this new project is as consistently decent as the singles imply I will pretend COADM really was a social experiment
Therapy Music, Orville and Vinyl Days are actually some of his best
@@youtubenutzer6022 His best are everyone elses worst
Man just listen to under pressure and you’ll know he can actually rap lol. People go through phases he didn’t have a good one lol

"Jokes on them I was pretending to be an idiot" moment
Actual quote from Logic: "I was pretending to be retarded"
The meme doesn't say "idiot"
@@lx4079 News flash you might not know all the worlds memes
@@lx4079 dnc; its a synonym
Wow, I don’t think people fully digested and processed what Anthony said at the end. He said he’s ANT-Man. But if you pay close attention, his name is ANThony. And going even deeper, he’s really reflecting on society and how he is merely in ant in the big ant pile of the world. He is willing to go against LOGIC which means he would do whatever it takes to protect the world in which we all inhabit against evil doers like Bobby Logic. He is also a MAN, which really makes this mind blowing triple entendre that much more hard hitting. Respect ANThony. ✌️✌️
Anthony Fanthony
ant mahoney
Be honest did everyone else stop reading after the first sentence
Faxxx
Ah yes, the classic excuse "It was a social experiment"
Can't believe Melon genuinely relistened to it, like, you could have used that hour of your life on any other album lol
I'd argue it's easily Logic's best album behind Supermarket.
@@Lunar_Pendragon lol
@@Lunar_Pendragon well that's embarrassing for Logic isn't it
@@justinleonard2304 Delusional cope.
@@THICCTHICCTHICC I think it's a testament to his greatness as a rapper, tbh.
Controversial should be thought provoking, not trolling by saying "I dont play no games unless we talkin fortnite"
You're tellin' me that him admitting to playing Fortnite isn't controversial? I wanted him to get canceled after hearing that.
We still hating Fortnite? Wow
@@donaldbaird7849 we hating on his bars.
@@SirNerdLeroy Oh, I thought it was a random example/quote you brought up
@@donaldbaird7849 fortnite is still trash
If there's one trend in the Internet age that I can't stand, it's making/doing something shitty, acknowledging how shitty it is, and then hiding under the guise of irony
dont you dare word this properly
"I was only pretending to be dumb"
I don’t think he’s lying about this or trying to hide behind anything. This album came out after Logic was already huge and a household name cause of the 1-800 song. It’s not like him admitting this makes his stan base change in anyway cause they’re gonna defend him regardless. He literally gains nothing from saying this. So I genuinely believe he intentionally made some bullshit album to fuck with people. Doesn’t change the fact it’s still a bullshit waste of an album.
Sometimes artists want to get out of a contract. In that case it’s fine
Hey, memes that are so unfunny they’re funny are great.
That's an awfully hot coffee pot...

Here goes Logic talking about himself in 3rd person again
,” said Logic.
Logic gave up on that Twitch career REAL QUICK.
HE WASNT BIRACIAL THIS WHOLE TIME?!?!?!
Yeah bro, he was just being satirical.
His sense of humor is simply too advanced for our time.
I'm sure in the future it will all make sense.
🔥🔥
This is a joke right? If so well done
It's same same future where we look at A2tC as a classic.
The rap game Rick and Morty
No but wait.. does that mean that future was the only one who knew logic was just using satire???
Logic is so dedicated, he created an entire video about his own tweet 🫡
Omfg I'm dying 😭 🤣
When you say something like "I wish I was bipolar like Kanye, then I'd be a musical genius," it doesnt really matter whether you're kidding or not.
I so badly want to have respect for this man but he seems determined to be a teenager forever
That last sentence hit the nail. I think he's a talented guy, definitely an interesting person, but god is it hard to be his fan sometimes. He's either gonna release some ass-tier project that noone asked for, or he's gonna say some stupid, unlikeable shit
How's that diff from Tyler saying, "I wish I had a Xannax problem so yall talk about how deep I am." It obv not a literal statement
@@Kazerai how are those two statements the same? tyler was critiquing fans’ view of “deep” music. what point was logic trying to make?
@@Kazerai Difference is Tyler was talking about how fucked up it is that young artists can do a bunch of drugs and write surface level songs while their fans call them deep and complex and haunted. Nobody was out here saying stuff like "wow all these people with mental illnesses make such good music they're so cool 🥺" so it really seems like Logic just . . . wishes he had a mental illness because he thinks it'd make him a better rapper.
@@bzymek7054 wait what has logic said that's unlikeable 💀 he has some really wack bars but there's not really any controversy around him... Most people say his music is pretty mid but he seems like a cool dude
This is just that "I was only pretending to be dumb" meme made real. No fucking way he made COADM as a social experiment.
The 5head Logic got you fooled, man.
This is the d e e p e s t l o r e.
The meme doesn't say "dumb"
@@lx4079 C’mon, brodie. It’s a different era. We all know that and that OP was avoiding a slur for the sake of neurodivergent users lurking on this video. Don’t argue in bad faith, you’re better than that and we can all benefit from being kinder towards one another.
@@TheFeetCrusader As a neurodivergent user lurking on this video, thanks :)
of course he didn’t if he has to say it now
I generally like Logic and his music, but every once and a while... the fact that he dropped out of High School really shines through.
He’s definitely the type of guy to try and overcompensate for something like that by acting smarter than he really is. Ever since Everybody, he has had the biggest “Please like me.” energy of any rapper I’ve ever seen.
what? dudes insecure, has anxiety, wants to cover himself up, like 80% of people have that, and thats been shaped by his addiction to social media
Bro 😭😭😭
@@veirglas found the one sane person in the youtube comments
berry funny
Logic's tweet is the musical equivalent of "it's just a prank bro"
I think Logic was going for 'satire' with tracks like Icy. The really dumb delivery and lame subject mirrors a certain branch of braggadocios rap. However, the dumpster fire that was that album was so in your face that the satire gets lost in the poor execution.
Icy is definitely a joke. The music video pretty much confirms that it is at least a statement on braggadocios rap
Somewhat but I didn't entirely hate it.
Satire should be profound and should be used to get a message across that wouldn't be as effective without satire in it. Just because something is trying to be funny or a bad example doesn't make it satire
@@DuSeun I agree....I just thought it was very clear that that's what Logic was going for. Like just watch the music video...🤣
would also add that there's the bit from a comedian mocking eminem at the end of homicide, there's def some wild ass choices & overall obnoxious popular sounding stuff. Clickbait is still horrible to me and it doesn't mean it was done well but i can see the satire of it to a degree
the satirical lyrical miracle
i believe logic to an extent, there was a lot of background stuff around it dropping and being made. originally it was going to be Bobby Tarantino 3 instead with less tracks, some songs got changed or didn't make coadm because of sample issues. in an interview he did with Hardknocktv he previewed some songs he made and on one of the songs a line came up saying that essentially if he didn't make coadm he would of killed himself, and later on he admitted that on the track "Inside" on Bobby Tarantino 3 that he in 2018 Pittsburgh wanted to slit his wrists, so in my opinion i think he really was struggling a lot with fame and the opinions from critics, trolls and even the pressure he has from the fame. Thats how the whole album got made imo because he needed a break from trying to impress everyone all the time so he just made an album that was fun for him to make, but remember og coadm was different but had to be changed because of sample issues, idk how much change though. i don't think the whole thing was purposefully satire, i think he just wanted to have fun and not think about it.
he was definitely not thinking lol
During the days when he got his twitch partner deal, iirc someone asked what his mindset was for each album, and for COADM he said he didn’t care and was “ignorant” purposely. Now reading this comment, it makes sense now.
The insane amount of copium being huffed here
okay bobby
@@CentrikandSIk i mean literally everything i said was true about everything he was going through. the rest was my opinion which i stated, are you dense?.
He saw how much the “CLB and The Big Day weren’t bad you’re just taking it too serious” is actually catching on. And now we’re here
The big day is still so painful to listen to. Just godawful
See I much prefer CLB to the big day. I’m not sure as many people actually heard big day after melon ended chance’s life.
But it literally is that bad. And when it does try to be funny, he made Hot Shower which is a far worse single than Way 2 Sexy imo.
CLB is drake’s worst. And I think he stopped trying after Views so that’s saying a lot. Even lowest effort drake is better than that album imo
Clb is geniunely overhated it's actually a decent album
Nope I fully disagree CLB is very bad. And the same thing people said about “views isn’t actually that bad” are still wrong.
But like I said, even lowest effort drake is better then big day. At least CLB has Fair Trade / the first song on the album. The rest are really that bad to me, not overhated album. Especially when it was being compared to Donda when it dropped
CLB is fire tho💯🗿
I definitely was surprised CoaDM was so bad because I was a big fan of YSIV and considered Supermarket to be a different genre. I did not expect a Logic rap album to be outright terrible like it was.
I feel like YSIV is underrated. Easily one of my fav albums from him.
There’s still a couple dope records on there. I’m happy he put it out cause a few of those records I still jam to this day. “Confession of a dangerous mind” song and “lost in translation” are both super dope
I still don't see COADM as a terrible album, I watched BlackySpeakz's video about old rappers being better than newer ones and he said one common complaint is how newer rappers "have no substance" and suddenly when a rapper with substance chooses to have none, he's worse than the ones who never had it in the first place
@@MrZodiac011 a lot of those songs have a topic he’s trying to talk about. Especially confessions
He would've told the truth if his name was "To Pimp A Butterfly".
To pimp a dangerous mind
To pimp
To
Logic made bad music as a prank and we all fell for it by thinking it was bad
the projects after the incredible true story must’ve been satirical too
Only one of those is genuinely bad which is the one we’re talking about. I don’t even count Supermarket as a Logic album cause it’s like saying that the fucking Black Panther soundtrack is a Kendrick album. It’s a tie in soundtrack for a movie it’s not the same thing.
FACTS
Logic the kind of kid to always come up with some sort of shield that always blocks your attack and have some crazy Lazer that instant kills you and can't be blocked. Smh.
I love Logic and there’s no satire in that record. Plus there’s no controversy around the record apart from the fact that people say it’s bad? So like i don’t get where he’s coming from. Maybe if he means to say that you can make shit generic rap and still get a popular album, then I would get his point.
Like I would have a lot more respect for Logic if he just was like "Hey, this is what I made and I stand by it, even if you think it's bad." To instead pretend that it was some deliberate "bad" project for some kind of experiment is such a fucking cop-out and feels like a complete lack of integrity in himself as an artist.
@@HappyMan0203 It’s honestly him cracking under the pressure of hate he’s received since dropping Everybody in 2017. That hate has only ramped up and it’s no doubt a big part of the reason dude left music. But it’s obvious that despite what the music community’s response to his work does to his own mental health, he still loves music and wants to continue being a part of it. I think he’s a great guy with a lot of good character, but the hate has really screwed with his confidence and caused him to flail around musically, whether it’s the really vapid hater-focused lyrical miracle or the mostly shallow genre-crossing attempts.
did you listen to "clickbait" lol?
@@Goofballhero very valid points, it seems that in Vinyl Days (the album) Logic is letting go of trying to get people to love him, trying to get numbers, etc. The singles that he’s put out are some of the best songs he’s ever done and you can tell that he’s let go of a lot of the pressure that he had (hence the name no pressure) and it’s inspiring to me to see someone stop caring so much about likes and social media
Any artist that makes a bad album will make this excuse now. I remember there was an entire reddit conspiracy thread saying that this album was intentionally bad lol
Under Pressure still my fav. And the old YS Collection. Loving his recent singles though. Logic is a legend and I’m always happy to hear him mixing up his sound. I hope he’s doing well
I think when he said controversial he meant to say divisive. I think he accidentally conflated the meaning of the two to be the same even though they aren't.
Logic just doing a little trolling.
lmaaooo
Cody please stand up
For a guy named Logic
_For a guy named Bobby_
he sure isn't being too *logical*
_that boy ain't right_
thanks for da video 🙂
YOOOO I FOUND TAMPA
Wtf
@@andrewspaceyy THIS GUY is _Puddin' Out_ HITS !!
It's the way he was marketing it before it came out that made it so controversial. Big fan since his mixtapes days and he was tweeting and saying it was going to be a mix of Under Pressure and Bobby Tarantino so people were expecting bars and substance like Under Pressure on trap beats so the hype was building up there and he did not deliver at all. If he named it Bobby Tarantino 3 and not said shit about it being some Under Pressure mix then it most likely have not have been "controversial." He's just pulling this out of ass now because multiple times he has said he was just doing it having fun so it wasn't no damn social experiment, he just put out what he was making at the time
some background on the "side b" stuff: so basically he had said that coadm would be "bobby tarantino meets under pressure" or sumn like that, and then the album drops and it's all mediocre trap. there was fan speculation going around that there are two sides and there will be a second more under-pressure-esque side b dropping, which never happened. but him and his label were adding fuel to the fire by posting cryptic shit in artworks and stuff, kinda confirming the speculation.
one of the visual artists that worked closely with him at that time was sharing concept art for the side b and when some time passed and it didn't drop he said it was a social experiment to get fan reaction or prove fans don't appreciate what they get (dumbest shit i've ever heard lol).
and yea he was overall going for a satirical record but he missed the mark, like he made "icy" to parody trap hits but gucci did a fire verse and the song came out feeling like logic is getting bodied on his own record. it was more obvious in the music video. there were more cuts like that on the album but i don't remember all the names tbh, but i think the only tracks intended to be taken seriously were the first and last tracks.
get this comment to the top
this is like a guy asking a girl out, getting rejected and being like "haha, i was just kidding, lol". only controversial thing about COADM was how bad it was
Logic being the kind of guy that raps about how deep he is because he watches Tarantino and Christopher Nolan films and then also uses the “it was just satire” deflection seems about right
🗿
logic really said "it was just a prank bro"
When you read his response i interpetted it completely different. In my head he was referring to the idea of a Side B being like that not the CD itself. Since thats what the question was about.
Your mustache looks like the pizza hut logo
Your brutal honesty kills me lmfao
his new song is actually flames
Is this new slang ? I’m old and authentically want to know
@@Kevtron9000 flames/fire > very good
yes it’s a slang lol
@@kevstuhh gang gang
It's weird he did this in response to someone who genuinely liked the album as well,
Logic trying to backtrack on COADM saying "lol it was just satire" is actually so embarrassing 🤦🏽♂️😭
He knew he was gonna come back the whole time.
i mean: as people who have listened to Logic for YEARS & heard every project, are you really gonna tell me that Wannabe, Clickbait, Pardon My Ego, Icy, Cocaine, DBATBD & BOBBY aren't all satirical songs? We been knew COADM was half satirical, half not lols so idk why this tweet is so controversial 💀 i literally remember reading a reddit post two years ago about how certain songs clearly show he's rapping from the perspective of a rapper who's consumed by social media. The music video for Icy adds weight to that theory. The problem with COADM is that it tried to be two things at once. A satirical rap project from the perspective of a rapper consumed by social media & one of Logic's personal reality (the title track, Homicide, Mama/ Show Love, Still Ballin', Limitless, Lost in Translation etc.) & clearly not everyone liked that.
Just when you thought Logic couldn't get cornier, he hits us up with this is 😭
That was the best ending to a video that i'll see all year
the part where he goes “damn robert, ya got me, i got spoofed” had me DYING
I think he’s saying the hypothetical side b was a social experiment (giving him the benefit of the doubt)
Antony Fanthana:
> hip hop: 1/10
> social experiment: 10/10
the classic "jokes on you I was only pretending"
Can't wait for Corey Feldman to say his whole discography is a social experiment
Honestly if he did I’d believe him. Cause I refuse to believe somebody is that bad at making music and nobody has told him that’s close to him to stop yet.
Logic hit us with "It was a prank, bro" lmao
Dear Anthony,
Great video, loved it.
Awwe, this is such a wholesome comment :)
Have a good day marty
After listening to “Vinyl Days” I can confirm COADM was just satire
ahh, the "it's just a prank, bro" defense.
I’m glad you can admit when you lie Anthony
"so I went back to listen to the album" Lmaaaao got eeeeem
I was listening through the album yesterday. There are a bunch of songs on there that I like that maybe should have gotten more credit
“I didn’t get fired, I quit lololol”
COADM has some bops on it, not gonna lie.
I’d love to see logic’s reaction to this
Thank you Fantman for keeping the streets safe 🙏🏽
Thats it, I'm calling fantano fantman from now on
logic asked himself with a burner
I thought this was gonna be about how Logic said he was retiring and is constantly releasing music still.
It is satryical in the sense that icy is a spoof on rappers who flex diamonds and money and such
Logic da 🐐 no 🧢
love the bissexual lighting in the background im just waiting for melon person to drop the hottest video essay of the month
I loved some of the songs in the album, the “beat” was so addicting, it was something more than just a beat, apart from some of his repetitive songs, the rap and the flow was really on point, ignoring some of his lyrics..
I wonder if Bobby Tarantino 3 was a social experiment as well. Maybe College Park was a social experiment to see how fast an album can make someone fall asleep.
Ab soul said the same thing about These Days, but that album was still hard
as a dude who loves logic, I truly wish that album never even existed
He did mention this in the autobiography
"Logic reveals only biracial people can truly understand his sound."
If "It's just a prank bro" imagined as a person.
broke: lyrical miracle rap
woke: satyrical lyrical miracle rap
Logic reminds me of Vito from sopranos “I was here! It’s a joke!“
genuine question: will you review the new album considering that you technically have a feature on it?
i think he’s only on a skit/sample, i doubt he’s heard anything from it in advance (besides the singles) so he’ll probably still cover it. if he made genuine musical contributions or directly helped in the direction of the album in some way, it would be weird for him to cover it.
@@lyleugleman9799 that’s a fair point. I agree that he seems detached to the point that he can review it objectively, but the “conflict of interest” accusations will inevitably appear if the album gets at least a 7.
I know Logic doesn’t really have a great track record, but this is actually the first time I’ve been interested in one of his projects in 5+ years.
“They all think I suck. The plan is coming together.”
Why does this happen so often... I swear so many bands just try to claim an album/song that they don't personally like anymore or was negatively received was actually satire or a joke (Childish Gambino - Camp, MGMT - Oracular Spectacular, Lorde - Solar Power, De La Soul - Me Myself and I) in some cases I definitely can see it, but most of the time it just seems like artists making up reasons to distance themselves from a certain project
He took the "I made a concept album. The concept that it is bad" meme too far.
I'm currently drunk as shit. I'd like to thank you for the mind fuck that lasted 2 seconds. Peace
We need another needledrop interview with bobby
Melon really talking shit about his own album 😤😤💯💯💯
2:41 Fantano voice crack
I opened this video thinking "what was logic kidding about?" and 8 minutes later I'm thinking "what was logic kidding about?"
say hi to logic, we all know he's down here
I feel like midway through making the album he realized it was gonna suck so he started making that the focus and now he's saying that was the goal from the start.
1:48 u smokin Za fantano ? 👀
you're interested in the funniest things Antwan fantwan
I understood Logics point completely, it makes sense, I can’t understand why melon didn’t get it
Logic: here's my album
Everyone: we don't really like that
Logic: ...well I was just kidding. It was a joke album. Get pranked dummy.
So were the features also satirical? If you’re going to lie, think of a lie that can stand up to heavier scrutiny
Man the guy just probably was seriously invested in the album and noticed that he clearly can't surpass any of his earlier work and just thought "ayt screw it ,It's not that great but I might as well drop it "
As much as nobody will admit it,Cole ,Kendrick and Drake clearly can't surpass their earlier albums too ,maybe that's the case here ,now he's just rapping because he can
This just in logic gives easy lay up to his detractors
I hope his new album won't be disappointing
Morbius won’t be though
