Groovy Tony is one of the coolest rap songs ever. It gives off sinister vibes of 90s or 80s gangster movies. Even that cover looks like a scene from 90s.
getting high watching NBA leagues pass with your family at the repass my hearts getting colder when I hug ur momma I look over her shoulder with the (BLANK FACE) 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"that part" is like saying "preach" or "facts" after someone says something. its literally what the annotation said, its just affirming what he says lol
It's wild how he can read the definition & still say "I don't agree with that"... Bro has zero cultural understanding but will brush off ppl that do. 😂
You can tell that Blank Face is the real closer. Overtime is a single that was supposed to "work" and helped the albums units, and took knows is kind of a fan service track so you could say they are like deluxe tracks.
If Schoolboy Q didn't turn down the Goosebumps beat that was offered to him, that would have been the other hit single along with That Part. That would have been possibly his best hit single to date and just turned this album into overkill lol. But still a very near 10/10 album for me.
Traffic and T.F are guys Schoolboy Q grew up with in the hood. They really rappin bout themselves in that life. Im glad you finally got to Q, he so slept on and there arent enough people reacting to him.
kno ya wrong still gotta be my favourite song off this album, the piano start, the smooth ass beat, and the switch up in the middle, shit is so peak bro
Groovy Tony /Eddie Kane is in my top favorite rap songs of all time. “Relentless” and “sinister” are such good words to describe Groovy Tony. There is just something about his flow that so perfectly matches the grimy synth production that just does something for me
I honestly think there’s not another album that sounds like this. Really spooky grungy funky gangsta rap always feels like a Halloween album but it dropped in the summer
Blue Lips came pretty close. But not quite. So yeah BFLP is still his best album. And that's not a bad thing at all! The fact that he could even come close to BFLP with BL is something many can't do
Yo bobby regarding the song Overtime ScHoolboy Q has stated in an interview that TDE forced him to put that song on the album in order to have "one for the ladies". They mention it in the genius description for the song. TDE also did the same thing for the song Studio off of Oxymoron.
If he didn't turn down Goosebumps by Travis Scott, he would have had the other single the label wanted him to put out. Q's biggest regret in music is turning that beat down.
@@bobthepoppopIt’s like saying "Truth!" Or "Amen!" bro. Or like highlighting a sentence and pointing at it for someone to see… Super simple. We ghetto black people say some weird phrases, I know lol
I worked concessions at a music venue when I was in my late teens when Schoolboy Q came to perform. I was so happy and sad simultaneously because while I was there, I mostly had to hand chicken tender baskets and burgers to fans. However while on break, I was able to begin walking past the barrier from the concessions area to the open floor where it was packed with people. I didn’t want to lose my job so I didn’t go into the audience fully and was just lingering all the way in the back hall. Then Schoolboy says “Alright this next song we’re going to go crazy! Even that guy wearing green all the way back there we’re going to get hype!!” then played Ride Out. My uniform is green. Crowd goes ballistic then I stand there in awe then eventually go back and bake pretzels 🥨 thinking about what just happened. Something I’ll never forget
This is the best Q album musically. Holy shit I love this record. Oxymoron is really good though. This is just a sinister, villainous stick up rap record. That is so bluesy, jazzy,funky, house, even. (Blank Face). Anderson Paak, E40, Jadakiss, Kanye the uncredited Kendrick. The cover is a photo of a cornea close up. The album cover represents getting shot in the face. Veins in the eye can look like trees, and the clouds of a smoky evil world. With the guy who just shot you Q as your guide. It's visceral.
In Groovy Tony Jadakiss makes a reference to the movie “Juice” staring 2pac when he says “when I hug your mom and look over her shoulder you notice I got the (blankface) “. In the movie 2pac’s character Bishop kills one of his friends and attends the repass with the family like Jadakiss mentions in the previous bar. The main character in the movie Quincy knows Pac’s character Bishop killed their friend and knows he’s acting like he doesn’t know who did it. When Pac hugs the victims mother Quincy notices that Bishop(2pac) is staring at him with a blank cold stare on his face(hence the term blankface) while he is hugging the victims mother. It’s one of the best scenes in the movie. 👍
This is incredible watching someone else have the same reactions to when I listened to this back in the day. Such a heavy sound and message throughout the album. It gave me goosebumps listening then and it still does now
48:11 if u want a good look for the “other kid in the car” in gkmc u should check out my krazy life by yg. they are around the same age, from the same area of compton. and it came out like a year later.
Tf and Traffic featured on the last song of the album are Q's childhood friends. They lived through a lot of the same shit and knowing that it makes that song hit a little harder for me. The comment you made about that song feeling more real is very on the nose.
After this album Schoolboy Q became frustrated with the expectations to live up to the more consistently experimental and substantive aspects of the project; which existed prior but not as relentlessly as Blank Face's initial stretch- then the concept becomes more disjointed and we get tracks that feel divorced. And i'm sympathetic as Q is a great regardless and Oxymoron is my overall most played project of his; but goddamn he had something here and I wish we got more of it 😭
Ten toes means his “feet are on the field” he’s really living that life “you movie role” is referring to the fake portraying that lifestyle but not really living it
He didn't feel that way because the music was bad... he felt that way because of the energy he was putting into the world. It's a dope album but it's also extremely EVIL
Also, Oxymoron isnt even Q’s first album anyways, its his third, so starting with Blank Face makes sense, especially if ur trying to get to Blank Face before his new one drops
2:30 as a dude who listened this when it came out and wasn’t older than 14 or 15, boy are u in for a ride😂😂😂. One of the most criminally underrated albums ever. One of the best of this generation
The "That part" is just exactly that. For example, people have fav songs and in those songs they have their fav part, the fav part would be "that part". My fav part in this song is when Q says "that part" after the beat drops in. THAT PART lol.
THERE'S A REMIX OF THAT PART WITH KENDRICK and the other black hippy members. Worth a listen, his verse is unreal. Haven't scrolled though all the comments to see if it's been recommended but fuck the Kanye original version.
i always saw the cover as the pov of someone on the ground in the woods with two people standing over them menacingly. the black circles being the top of their heads.
THIS INTRO... First time I hear this too and I've mostly heard Schoolboy Q on features, but this "TorcH" song is crazy even on computer speakers. Gotta listen on headphones soon
My annotation of "I'm ten toes, you movie role" would be that he's firmly grounded in the crazy with both feet and whoever he's talking to is just acting crazy, there's a difference
Just the past week I’ve been absolutely jamming this album as I’ve forgotten how amazing it is. Was hoping you’d react to a Q album prior to Blue Lips. Love it
Omar is the name of the shotgun toting character on The Wire. Black Thought references the lead emcee from the hip hop group "The Roots". Check them out. They blend jazz elements with hip hop elements and live instruments. Their concepts are often avant garge with socially conscious, introspective and politically charged lyricism.
This is such a good review, makes me wish I could listen to this album again for the first time. Also, 'thank part' is essentially agreeing with something, or say something's good.
Also, the videos from this album are INSANE. You're gonna just sit there in silence after some of them, feeling haunted. Schoolboy Q's greatness _is_ the sense of inevitability... the thing coming for you (karma) and the warning. I agree this album kind of took its foot off the gas a bit but I don't mind.
Bob, don't know if you've already heard it, but this year marks 40 years since the release of Purple Rain by Prince, I can't recommend it enough if you haven't heard it, one of the most important and influential pop records of all time, would be cool, specially since you have heard The Weeknd and D'Angelo, two people really inspired by Prince
13:25 “ten toes, you movie roll” is another reference to gang and street culture. Being ten toes down is not switching up on what u say it went to do, and in terms of gang culture it’s putting in work. The movie roll part refers to how most rappers talk about stuff they aren’t living
“This is a hellride” is exactly right. Arguably the most artful hip hop album ever crafted. Q doesn’t judge the darkness he just presents it’s true reality. It’s one of the great hip hop concept albums.
1:11:38 2 phones is Baby Keems nickname, yes, but right here he's referring to Schoolboy having 2 phones (1 is a personal, the other is a burner phone for dope dealin'). Man, he on!
*51:11* _Cuz looking over his shoulders for the opps_ Note: *_WHateva U Want_* has grown on me since my early spins; feels like the kinda track ODB could've created past the new millennium. It's a modern roller skate bop. This album, along with Danny's *_AE_* , are stone cold classics from the 2010's in vein of a fiendish alternative rap experience. SGC's *_Reasonable Drought_* is also a more recent GOATed rap album (though there are many if we look well enough).
Dang, nice to see some SchoolBoy. But I actually think Oxymoron would’ve been a better place to start. Hopefully Bob goes back and listens to it either on the channel or on his own sometime.
Thank you! Finally someone reacts to this underrated gem! this album didn't that great compare to "Oxymoron" and "CrasH Talk", so there's not a lot of reaction on the album or songs. He also made a three parts mini movie for this album. More like 3 music videos that tells a story, part one: "by any means", part two: ""Tookie knows II" and part 3: "Black tHougHts". The third one wraps well the concept of "blank face"

I didnt even realize he hasn't listened to paak. So much material there
“I use a fleshlight to cope with the pain”😂
I don’t think he’s listened to any of Griselda either. That’s a years worth of content 😂
I was wondering why he wasn't stoked on the Paak. feature
@@dakotawilbanks5261he did griselda a month ago. His reaction was amazing.

Agreed. It’s so sinister

He better go back and react to oxymoron. One of the most underrated rap albums ever and nobody reacts to it
IM JUST GRANDMA’S BABY, EDDIE KANE
AND WE OUTTTTT
TorcH is one of the best openers I've ever heard on an album. It blows my mind how barely anyone talks about it
by farrr my fav Q track
2nd fav Q track of all time behind Groovy Tony
Literally one of the best songs ive ever heard bro idk how people dont talk about it
Groovy Tony is one of my favorite rap songs of all time
Me too
It's so underrated
Best song of 2016
This album is aging like fine wine. IMO a classic album with no skips and definitely captured Q's headspace in 2016
The way Q gets louder and more aggressive as he progresses through his verses on groovy tony is genius
"that part" is like saying "preach" or "facts" after someone says something. its literally what the annotation said, its just affirming what he says lol
That part 😂
It's wild how he can read the definition & still say "I don't agree with that"... Bro has zero cultural understanding but will brush off ppl that do. 😂
I get so stuck in my own lane sometimes lol
thats true but to be fair the people that annotate genius write some of the dumbest shit ever.@@brklynbomber
@@brklynbomber sometimes it is wrong though. Like the snake eyes poker part
You can tell that Blank Face is the real closer. Overtime is a single that was supposed to "work" and helped the albums units, and took knows is kind of a fan service track so you could say they are like deluxe tracks.
If Schoolboy Q didn't turn down the Goosebumps beat that was offered to him, that would have been the other hit single along with That Part. That would have been possibly his best hit single to date and just turned this album into overkill lol. But still a very near 10/10 album for me.
When you said “maybe I’m overthinking it”…….i would’ve interjected with THAT PART
😂
Traffic and T.F are guys Schoolboy Q grew up with in the hood. They really rappin bout themselves in that life. Im glad you finally got to Q, he so slept on and there arent enough people reacting to him.
I got to meet TF at a concert in 2016 and I was able to get a pic with him, really great guy
Overtime was kinda forced into the album by the label to try and get a "radio" friendly song going... surprise..it didn't work
It was played alot here in SoCal radios.
it fit for me I had it on replay
@@mcbiggy1322fr, i always thought it was a hit, but that's cause im from LA
kno ya wrong still gotta be my favourite song off this album, the piano start, the smooth ass beat, and the switch up in the middle, shit is so peak bro
KNOW YA WRONG, OHHHHH
Alc on that first verse
One of my favorite songs ever
Groovy Tony /Eddie Kane is in my top favorite rap songs of all time. “Relentless” and “sinister” are such good words to describe Groovy Tony. There is just something about his flow that so perfectly matches the grimy synth production that just does something for me
It's monstrous in the best ways :)
I honestly think there’s not another album that sounds like this. Really spooky grungy funky gangsta rap always feels like a Halloween album but it dropped in the summer
Should check Danny Brown - Atrocity Exhibition
@@igweugo yeah that one too tbf! 2016 was a great year
True. But there are some albums which give similar Vibes. Listen to "No idols" by Domo genesis. It is produced by The Alchemist.
@@Urbanindia745loooove "no idols" Bob should definitely check it out
okay okay Okay OKay OKAy… OKAY
"My heart broke with every okay." - ScHoolboy Q
So awesome to see a first reaction to this, Q is my favorite rapper and I’m thrilled to see you recognize the greatness as well!
there was a point in my life where I would listen to groovy tony like 3 times a day. its sooo good
ScHoolboy Q's vocal preformances are unmatched
It's incredible how much his voice adds to the grit of this album
Yo that concept of Blank Face being the guy driving Kendrick to rob the house in Good Kid is so hard lol
This was Q's classic. He may never be at this level again, but I'll always be a fan just because of this one.
No one will ever make blankface again not even Q..if thats not a classic i dont know what is
Blue Lips MarcH 1st 🔵👄
Eh I think oxymoron is better
@@jamesmiley6146 blank face is better imo*
Blue Lips came pretty close. But not quite. So yeah BFLP is still his best album. And that's not a bad thing at all! The fact that he could even come close to BFLP with BL is something many can't do

Yes very true. Unfortunately studio was a much better song than overtime imo 🤷🏽♂️
@@jabroni_z2686studio a classic tho
Studio is MILEEEESSS ahead of Overtime for sure!!
@@KevinJEady yea it’s not even close 😂
If he didn't turn down Goosebumps by Travis Scott, he would have had the other single the label wanted him to put out. Q's biggest regret in music is turning that beat down.
Blank Face is a modern day rap classic in my book.
"That part" is like underlining something, "look at this part here, this is the important bit". Its just a way of adding emphasis after a boast.
THIS explanation helps me understand the whole thing very well. Pointing at/underlining, "that part"
Thank you 🙏
@@bobthepoppopIt’s like saying "Truth!" Or "Amen!" bro. Or like highlighting a sentence and pointing at it for someone to see… Super simple. We ghetto black people say some weird phrases, I know lol
I JUST WANT THE PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPER
THat Part
Schoolboys character development in real life is fucking great to see from afar. Dude got into golf and got into his soccer dad shit 🔥
I worked concessions at a music venue when I was in my late teens when Schoolboy Q came to perform.

Wow man, what a memory. Will last forever I’m sure. Hope you went crazy on Q’s orders
So happy to see this Bob! Blank Face didn’t get enough credit at the time of release. And I think Blue Lips will be his best yet.
“Momma always kept it veil” means his mom tried to shield him from the environment around him
Thank you 👍
This is the best Q album musically. Holy shit I love this record. Oxymoron is really good though. This is just a sinister, villainous stick up rap record. That is so bluesy, jazzy,funky, house, even.

To this day John Muir is one of my fav rap songs ever. Blank Face was played nonstop for me when it came out. Highly underrated album
Started my lil vinyl collection with this masterpiece, hope he do a 10 year anny tour for this in '26.
I didn’t even realize he hasn’t listened to BIG KRIT
So much material there
I immediatly clicked, blank face one of my favorite albums oat. I am so glad u are reacting to it🤟
Honestly one of my favorite albums of the 2010s, super excited for Q’s new album
I'll be diving into the new one. Curious to see which direction he goes
One of the greatest hip hop albums ever. Cant wait to have the time to watch this reaction
By Any Means is probably one of my favorites of all time. It's just so damn smooth, the chorus is fire, the lyrics are powerful. Just a perfect song

That's what I been saying too. We need it, Bob 🤝🏿

The density of bangers on this album is crazy
I was just thinking about Bob listening to this album the other day. Such a fantastic listen and I can't wait for the new Q coming out in March!

you gotta go through his entire discography! Setbacks, Habits and Contradictions, Oxymoron and CrasH Talk!
I'll definitely do Oxymoron someday, hopefully sooner than later
Bone thugs albums between 94 and 2003!!🔥🔥🔥 just subscribed shout out from South Africa..✌️🇿🇦
been waiting for this forever thank you so much bob!
After this album Schoolboy Q became frustrated with the expectations to live up to the more consistently experimental and substantive aspects of the project; which existed prior but not as relentlessly as Blank Face's initial stretch- then the concept becomes more disjointed and we get tracks that feel divorced.
And i'm sympathetic as Q is a great regardless and Oxymoron is my overall most played project of his; but goddamn he had something here and I wish we got more of it 😭
Ten toes means his “feet are on the field” he’s really living that life “you movie role” is referring to the fake portraying that lifestyle but not really living it
Yeah, basically. Ten toes down = planted, immovable, devoted to what he’s doing/saying. We say it a lot out here in Cali
A top 5 hip-hop album of all time for me. Very excited to watch this!
Listening to this in high school “Ride Out” was my fav , Vince & Q was such a perfect pairing omg
Back selling crack
Vince KILLED.
like always 😂
"been a mathematician, loadin nine subtractin eight im keepin one for just in case"
This is his best album. Surprised he said he wished he didn’t make it
He didn't feel that way because the music was bad... he felt that way because of the energy he was putting into the world. It's a dope album but it's also extremely EVIL
One of the most overlooked and underappreciated rap albums of the 2010's
1:11:39 baby keem problably didnt even start making music when this was released lmao
lol bro was making minecraft videos back then 😭💀
Q has come out and said he was forced to make and add overtime to his album by the label.
Hell yeah! Isaiah and schoolboy were my most requested
Also, Oxymoron isnt even Q’s first album anyways, its his third, so starting with Blank Face makes sense, especially if ur trying to get to Blank Face before his new one drops
I was LITERALLY gonna recommend this to you like, today. I fuckin love this album
bob not understanding slang b ruining shit sometimes ☠️

Doggpound is on this album and their debut album is an all time clasic that really deserves a listen someday
Bob youre popping off this week ! Lets Go
Also, the videos from this album are INSANE. You're gonna just sit there in silence after some of them, feeling haunted. Schoolboy Q's greatness _is_ the sense of inevitability... the thing coming for you (karma) and the warning.
I agree this album kind of took its foot off the gas a bit but I don't mind.
Great album. I was introduced to much of it through this reaction. Very glad I watched.
Love the shirt bob !
Bob, don't know if you've already heard it, but this year marks 40 years since the release of Purple Rain by Prince, I can't recommend it enough if you haven't heard it, one of the most important and influential pop records of all time, would be cool, specially since you have heard The Weeknd and D'Angelo, two people really inspired by Prince
The cover art is a movie ticket. The main character Groovy Tony is the man on the cover. The album is a movie for Groovy Tony.
Just clicked on the video, haven't watched it through yet, but I'm pretty hype! Been waiting for this.

JoHn Muir is my favourite Q track, excited for his upcoming project 🔥
imo the perfect start for scHoolboy is Setbacks followed up by Habits & Contradictions :D
One of my favorite albums of all time.
the music videos make this album make 10x more sense
You gotta do a reaction to Q's Hoover Street, it'll help to understand the uncle part
“This is a hellride” is exactly right. Arguably the most artful hip hop album ever crafted. Q doesn’t judge the darkness he just presents it’s true reality. It’s one of the great hip hop concept albums.
One of my top artists, the way Q puts his words together with his vocal tone, it has so much character and emotion
lets fucking go ive been waiting for this for so long favorite schoolboy q project
1:11:38 2 phones is Baby Keems nickname, yes, but right here he's referring to Schoolboy having 2 phones (1 is a personal, the other is a burner phone for dope dealin'). Man, he on!
I remember being introduced to Q in 2012, after breaking up with GF. It was like: at last something for oldheads in this age. Awesome albums!
Overtime: schoolboy q didn’t want to do the song the label wanted a trendy song that’s why the song was made
"That part" is just slang, it's not used nearly as much now but back when the album dropped it was used a lot.
1:10:09 it’s a sample from Playa Hataz by Three Six Mafia. Might explain the darkness you feel from it.
That metro boomin produced track is a banger.
*51:11*
_Cuz looking over his shoulders for the opps_
Note: *_WHateva U Want_* has grown on me since my early spins; feels like the kinda track ODB could've created past the new millennium. It's a modern roller skate bop. This album, along with Danny's *_AE_* , are stone cold classics from the 2010's in vein of a fiendish alternative rap experience.
SGC's *_Reasonable Drought_* is also a more recent GOATed rap album (though there are many if we look well enough).
Hard not to love Groovy Q. I think this album was more of his influence than Oxymoron which some would say is more of a industry/ radio album
Dang, nice to see some SchoolBoy. But I actually think Oxymoron would’ve been a better place to start. Hopefully Bob goes back and listens to it either on the channel or on his own sometime.
Thank you! Finally someone reacts to this underrated gem! this album didn't that great compare to "Oxymoron" and "CrasH Talk", so there's not a lot of reaction on the album or songs.

The third one wraps well the concept of "blank face"
Such a good surprise. Loved and still love this album.
