the nostalgia i get from saturation 2 especially is so overwhelming. like so many memories linked to it. graduation, my first job, depressive episodes, hanging w friends, parties. ALL in one summer.
i love how your dad always picks up unique sounds and instruments in the background. he always makes me notice something that i didn’t hear before/didn’t think about a lot. it’s refreshing to see him notice such intricate details that make the production!
Iridescence (the record after the trilogy) is my personal favorite, not just bh project, but one of my favorite albums of all time. It's such an intimate and almost accidental exploration of chaos. After all the drama that broke their band apart, Brockhampton finds the beauty lying within the madness they lay in. It's not for everyone but if you give it a fair shake, I find it to be a wonderful piece of self-expression.
Yessir, they hit the perfect experiemental stride with iridescence imo. It feels like BH's Yeezus and has lots of my favorite tracks of their entire discography on it! I would agree its one of my all time favorite albums!
straight up have been saying the same stuff you said for years, it's a perfect encapsulation of the groups headspace and mood during the whole making of the album, its almost "anti-saturation" in the sense that it actively sounds different from those 3 albums, which lead to easily their most expressive album they've ever released, and i'd say more vulnerable than ginger to be honest.
I really hope you cover more of their albums after saturation 3 because I think their creative direction from iridescence onwards was really cool to see
would love for them to just go in order to be honest, i love all their albums, even TM has a soft spot in my heart even if people didn't like it as much
It’s sad that I feel like brockhampton are largely dismissed/forgotten despite the feats they managed to accomplish during their time. I wish the members would go on to release more/better solo work. I’ve been waiting for so long for Kevin abstract to do something but there’s really not a member who I wouldn’t love a project from
10/10 for me. Easily my favourite BH record and one of my fav hiphop releases of the 2010s. So creative, clever, etc while having enough pop sensibilities in their writing/melodies to feel like a hit compilation. Love it
GAMBA's only issue is that it came after SWEET. I don't know where else it would have fit in the tracklist, mind you, but I think any song after SWEET was going to be underrated
I got into brockhampton right around the Ginger era but my summer of 2019 was basically the experience most fans had in 2017 with me discovering the trilogy, all their amazing music videos and figuring out who these guys were. I definitely liked hip hop at the time but after listening to Saturation 2 and 3 back to back on a late night rainy car ride, I was sold on a whole genre. These guys inspire me, make me emotional, and show the true potential of what can happen if you make art with people you love. So glad you guys enjoyed it!!!
all are great but sat II is really just them finding their sound and hitting it perfectly, sat III keeps the vibe but also adds more experimentation that doesn’t quite touch sat II imo
I wish I could go back in time and listen to this album for the first time again. Actually all 3. It was such an experience. Such a different time. Such a classic trilogy.
Kinda felt emotional by the end there with Summer, Brockhampton means a lot to me. Can't choose a favorite album but one thing's for sure i appreciate all their projects and i adore Joba
I think Joba had the most music experience of the band. He studied classical vocal performance in college and worked as an engineer for a music studio in Houston. He recorded a few members of the band with his own gear in his home studio
for Kevin: pretty certain the Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass from Kontakt was used on these records, the guitar is live but I'm pretty certain the bass is done in software. It's shown on Romil's screen in the doc and it definitely sounds a lot like it.
For a long time this was my least favorite of the saturation trilogy. But over the years I’ve grown a huge appreciation for it especially GAMBA and SUNNY which I didn’t like for the longest time. Fantastic album
As a personal lover of iridescence, I’m incredibly excited to see your dad’s response to it. Hearing you didn’t like it as much makes sense, but I think it could change with another listen. Great vid!
Man this album was heat when I first heard it in college, and it still is now. So great that you get to experience this with your dad for the first time 🔥
Not sure if this is a hot take but personally, I think iridescence is their best album. The experimental and bombastic production infused with the emotional weight of the time it was being recorded truly resonates with me in a way that not a lot of albums do. Great video as always!
Immediately came to comments hoping someone said it 😅 Iridescence is different from saturation but in the best way possible. There are sides of BH we would have never gotten without the album 🤞🏽
I love your channel so much!!! One of the most eloquent, open-minded, and aesthetically relaxing pieces of media I've seen produced in a very long time. If I could suggest an album, it's Humbug by the Arctic Monkeys or Salad Days by Mac Demarco.
With the last video I couldn’t wait to see your reaction to junky it’s my all time favourite from them, your reaction is how I feel every time I listen to it😂 gives me so much energy
BH is one of my favorite artists of all time. I hope you guys follow the entire discography as the story in and of itself I think is so worthwhile. Glad you see your dad enjoy this one a lot
I hope you go through the entire catalogue, I know you're not super hot on Iridescence but that record just means so much to me. I'll never forget September 2018, truly magical time seeing it debut at number 1.
I really hope they get to iridescence just to see the shift the band took after ameer left and the up in production. the album is so raw and emotional and it was recorded in only 10 days!
Oh my gosh, I've binged everything in the last week. I love this channel so much. I'm not sure if you take suggestions but any Kali Uchis album would probably go over well with Kevin, plus tons of features from artists he's already familiar with now. Or Bino's "Because of the Internet" Anyways, all my good vibes for yall!
This is my favorite BH record by far. Definitely some nostalgia being the record I discovered them, but Tokyo to me sounds so incredible still. Perfect for a night drive. May sound like sacrilege. But the intro and all sounds like new school Outkast to me.
I know this one isn't for the masses but please consideri reacting to Black Thought & El Michels Affair's Glorious Game. This one's an amazing album with Black Thought sounding more soulful than ever, and that in itself is surprising. Having been a long time Black Thought fan, I think this record would be the easiest entry point for someone who isn't accustomed to his complex rhyme schemes. Realllllllyyyy hoping y'all consider this because I think Kevin's gonna love the album mainly because of the extremely jazzy production!
Easily my favorite BH album. I remember my life when this trilogy came out so vividly. While Sat3 and Sat1 have my individual favorite songs from BH, Sat 2 has no skips IMO. Jello, Tokyo, Fight, Sweet, and Summer my favorites. edit: My top 3 BH tracks would be Sister/Nation, Gold, Jello in that order also before anyone replies saying wb Bleach? It’s probably 4 with Tokyo at 5.
pleaseee do iridescence too i genuinely think its their best record objectively.. its full of new sounds and layers to the production and i think manages to highlight each member better than the saturations do, a lot more intense and mature in terms of the evolution of their sound too. its definitely not their most accessible (it didnt click with me for the longest time until i got more into death grips and jpegmafia) but i think creatively its their best.. and bearface starts to have more of a forward role in songs
Iridescence (the album recorded at Abbey Road) od my favorite album of there's. I think it is a masterpiece. I was going through a rough time when it came out, and it definitely helped me get through. I always go back for some great nostalgia!
YES! I saw them just after this Saturation came out, they were at the Biltmore Cabaret kinda near Scienceworld! One of the best concerts I've been to, got to meet a few members and at some point Ameer was like 7 feet away from me screaming like a hawk😂
That’s wild hearing his opinion on Iridescence! It’s by far my most listened to brockhampton album. I think it has a great flow with a wide palate of feelings throughout
Brockhamton came to Australia for a radio stations music festival and did a striped back version of san marcos and also an Alicia keys cover. Well worth a listen/reaction. The radio station was Triple J. It’s on RUclips.
Keeping going, Saturation 3 is the best, and yet keep going. I saw them in GR, at a 400 after 1, 2 and before 3. Saw them after 3 and they filled 3000, what a dream. Keep going.
I discovered the SATURATION trilogy the pandemic 2020, many memories and emotions attached to these, I love them soo much, amazing reaction as always guys!!
Involuntarily started barking at my screen before SUMMER started playing
bearface 😍
@@sdf1000 my beloved 😍😍😍
I was barking before I even clicked on the video
I love huskies but I feel like a wolf 🐺
Relateble
you can tell connor loves these albums by the way he nerds out explaining the tracks and the bh lore. love to see it!!!
the nostalgia i get from saturation 2 especially is so overwhelming. like so many memories linked to it. graduation, my first job, depressive episodes, hanging w friends, parties. ALL in one summer.
I feel this heavy.
We in the same boat my friend. Or bowl of MILK
sameeee!!!
Same boat with Brockhampton! They’ve helped me during my sad episodes
i love how your dad always picks up unique sounds and instruments in the background. he always makes me notice something that i didn’t hear before/didn’t think about a lot. it’s refreshing to see him notice such intricate details that make the production!
“Summer” gives me the goosebumps. Fav track from the record.
Hoping that BOOGIE doesn’t kill Kevin, sending my thoughts and prayers in advance 🙏🙏
Saw them live and boogie did infact kill me, insane pit. So fcking close to loosing my shoes that day lmao
He’s gonna need resuscitating 😂
@@Artificialaraso lucky. wish i could’ve gone!
reporting back to you after they reacted to saturation III, and let me tell you, the thumbnail says it all
the best brockhampton & summer album there is. every track is just so fkn good. SUMMER is probably my favourite brockhampton song aswell
summer is the worst song there lol

I feel the same way!
Plus they made it in 10 days which still blows my mind
Iridescence was very impressive

I'd love to see them do Ginger
my fav albums are after the sat trilogy, i hope they do:(
Iri is their best album. Given the circumstances and lineage of events, it was the perfect album
would love for them to just go in order to be honest, i love all their albums, even TM has a soft spot in my heart even if people didn't like it as much
sat trilogy was peak for them tho
It’s sad that I feel like brockhampton are largely dismissed/forgotten despite the feats they managed to accomplish during their time. I wish the members would go on to release more/better solo work.

Kevin released two banger albums last year
@@LightningFromHeavenreally? Not on streaming or am I missing something
@@aerosquid4732”The family” is under the brockhampton name but thats really a kevin abstract album
Then theres arizona baby and American boyfriend
@@jandellsantiago8472 arizona baby and american boyfriend are so mf good
I wait patiently for Matt’s and Joba’s solo releases. I know they love music too much to abandon it.
this was great as always. can’t wait for y’all to react to Ginger.
10/10 for me. Easily my favourite BH record and one of my fav hiphop releases of the 2010s. So creative, clever, etc while having enough pop sensibilities in their writing/melodies to feel like a hit compilation. Love it
tokyo is so good, that bit at the beginning is so infectious
My fav track from the album personally
My fav song!
Man this song helped me through so many dark times I can't
kevin saying the SWEET beat “went to the snake charmer a bit” is so real
Kevin's freak out at the end of JUNKY is how I react every time I listen to that song
Dawg….
Thats Dom mclennon 😭 the lyrical one
Edit: nvm you meant the other kevin my fault
I've never seen anyone embody how JUNKY makes me feel until Kevin's immediate reaction at the end
So true dude
i can't believe its been almost a whole year since this reaction i've been waiting on sat 3 im getting edged so hard its unreal
it's here
GAMBA is criminally underrated. One of my favorite songs of theirs! Its the "SWIM" of SAT2.
Fr I forgot how much I loved it
GAMBA's only issue is that it came after SWEET. I don't know where else it would have fit in the tracklist, mind you, but I think any song after SWEET was going to be underrated

me too exactly
Can't wait for Sat 3, Kevin is gonna freak out when he hears Boogie.
Yeah i cant wait
my fave track by them, hardest track ever. swamp close contender to steal that place.
@@MvsG18 Same boogie is my fav too, its just too good
Also Sister/Nation
@@MvsG18glad we can agree, been listening to bh for years and those are 1 and 2 in my opinion
Can't wait for SAT 3. Imo their best is SAT 1 and SAT 3 comes a close second. Just so bouncy
sorry but sat II is peak
For me the Saturations get better as they go
all are great but sat II is really just them finding their sound and hitting it perfectly, sat III keeps the vibe but also adds more experimentation that doesn’t quite touch sat II imo
@@shartley5343this is the correct take
So excited for the sat 3 reaction! Its my personal fav out of the three by a large margin.
I wish I could go back in time and listen to this album for the first time again. Actually all 3. It was such an experience. Such a different time. Such a classic trilogy.
Kevin’s reaction to Junky is just 👌perfection
JELLO has so many things I am a sucker for. Strings, a bouncy beat, pitched up vocals, fast flows... It's one of my absolute favorite tracks of theirs
PLEASE DO GINGER!!! Saved me during my college years, and it just made me fall in love again with the group and their growth since the trilogy
😂😂Kevin talking to the dog was funny asf. Love this album this album did so much for me when it came out
Kinda felt emotional by the end there with Summer, Brockhampton means a lot to me. Can't choose a favorite album but one thing's for sure i appreciate all their projects and i adore Joba
I think Joba had the most music experience of the band. He studied classical vocal performance in college and worked as an engineer for a music studio in Houston. He recorded a few members of the band with his own gear in his home studio
11:19 "smack my nuts if I'm wrong" is masterful
for Kevin: pretty certain the Scarbee Rickenbacker Bass from Kontakt was used on these records, the guitar is live but I'm pretty certain the bass is done in software. It's shown on Romil's screen in the doc and it definitely sounds a lot like it.
so much love for this album. loved seeing ur guys's reactions. please do iridescence!
Saturation 3 when? Have fallen in love with your reactions!
For a long time this was my least favorite of the saturation trilogy. But over the years I’ve grown a huge appreciation for it especially GAMBA and SUNNY which I didn’t like for the longest time. Fantastic album
really ?? second is for sure my favorite. i think im in a minority here tho
Both 1 and 3 flow a lot better as a project to me. 2 still has some very good songs
Old man's reaction to Junky reminded me of the first time I heard this album. It's so intense. Good on ya, fellas. This is fun.
great to see this record being played
you guys are one of the best music review channels out there, amazing vibes! Keep it up 👍
Summer is my favorite song. Glad I got to see Kevin react
the dog interlude had me rolling 💀
As a personal lover of iridescence, I’m incredibly excited to see your dad’s response to it. Hearing you didn’t like it as much makes sense, but I think it could change with another listen. Great vid!
Man this album was heat when I first heard it in college, and it still is now. So great that you get to experience this with your dad for the first time 🔥
On the very first song when Kevin says “This is Matt here right” IM SO PROUD 😭
Not sure if this is a hot take but personally, I think iridescence is their best album. The experimental and bombastic production infused with the emotional weight of the time it was being recorded truly resonates with me in a way that not a lot of albums do. Great video as always!
For some reason Iridescence is underrated among some BH fans I never understood It. Blew my mind from beginning to end.
@@Cedrou21exactly. some of their most hard songs to date and their most sad as well. it’s fantastic
not that hot of a take, many BH fans think so
Immediately came to comments hoping someone said it 😅 Iridescence is different from saturation but in the best way possible. There are sides of BH we would have never gotten without the album 🤞🏽
Queer is one of my fav songs of all time, hadnt listened to it in a long time and OMG such a banger. love that you both loved it too
iridescence is my absolute favorite project of theirs! Its a shame so many fans don't love it as much as I do.
one of my fav albums of like all time, its so crazy

You're right and you should say it.

Summer is literally the best closer, such a different feel
probably the best reaction i've seen to Junky out there
sameee
I live and die by these three albums, your dads take and the shit he notices in the production is so refreshing.

Love to see this but Saturation 3 being my favorite album from BROCKHAMPTON makes me even more excited.
Man, the saturation trilogy is truly special what a fucking run these guys want on!
One of my favorite albums ever, thanks for doing this 🫶🏻
We HAVE to get Sat III before New Years Pleasssee
Iridescence and Ginger are mad underrated
exactly dude iridescence is my fav bh album
Under-appreciated part of summer is the backing vocals by Dijon! Wasn’t just bearface
holy crap i didn’t even know that and i’m a huge dijon fan. that’s so cool!
@@kimdracvla ikr it blew my mind when I first found out cuz you can hear him so clearly once you know!
Kevin is gonna lose his mind when you react to “Iridescence”🤯🔥
this album fr changed the world
This album will be considered a classic in like a decade if it’s not already
you guys should listen to 1997 Diana, 1998 Truman, and 1999 Wildfire. Great lil singles from brockhampton aswell
Iridescence (the album recorded at Abbey Road) od my favorite album of there's. I think it is a masterpiece. I was going through a rough time when it came out, and it definitely helped me get through. I always go back for some great nostalgia!
should show your dad the saturation documentary
YES! I saw them just after this Saturation came out, they were at the Biltmore Cabaret kinda near Scienceworld! One of the best concerts I've been to, got to meet a few members and at some point Ameer was like 7 feet away from me screaming like a hawk😂
One of my favorite albums of all time by one of my fav bands of all time… can’t wait for Sat 3 review!!
summer is goated asf i remember listening to it for the first time in 7th grade
The best BROCKHAMPTION album in my opinion, with Saturation 3 close behind
SUNNY been my anthem this summer 😌
SAT II is my favourite as well! 2017 many memories
Saturation trilogy is a landmark moment in music history
Its good when you choose an album then play that said album, nice to see, good stuff
sat 3 is one of the best 3 album runs ever and this is one of the best hiphop albums ever.
That’s wild hearing his opinion on Iridescence! It’s by far my most listened to brockhampton album. I think it has a great flow with a wide palate of feelings throughout
Junky is one of my favourite BH songs ever
sat 3 is genuinely gonna blow him away i can’t wait
43:20 i have been listening to bh for years and I never realized they did the naming of the sat 1-3 songs like this 😭😭😭 what a cool little thing
personally each saturation got better and better cant wait for sat 3 reaction
If you guys don't do Preacher's Daughter by Ethel Cain or Kick iii by Arca
nothing will happen but please do :)
Brockhamton came to Australia for a radio stations music festival and did a striped back version of san marcos and also an Alicia keys cover. Well worth a listen/reaction. The radio station was Triple J. It’s on RUclips.
Connor is way more comfortable in front of the camera than he used to be. The growth is lovely to see :)
been waiting for the sat 2 review for the longest love u guys
Omg the dog was too cute 😭🖤
Keeping going, Saturation 3 is the best, and yet keep going. I saw them in GR, at a 400 after 1, 2 and before 3. Saw them after 3 and they filled 3000, what a dream. Keep going.
