The fact that joyner tried to pitch this as a show shows his creative genius. This would be a dope premise for a show. He said it would have been him and rotimi starring in it. He been sitting on this for a year.
One of the best songs I've heard recently. Joyner is at his best when he's on a good topic and he does the whole building up intensity thing that he does so well.
Stevie, that's Joyner's mom. He's put here in past music videos of his if I'm not mistaken. Fire ass song from Joyner and Rotimi's acting is top notch here. So good as Dre from Power.
Him dropping “Cut u off” right before this there is definitely a theme to this album. The previous track was Joyner pretending he was above it and his perspective. This track “broski” is Joyner tapping into what his friend was thinking for real and how he can see both sides. I don’t think it was just about “fake friends” but also about how your friends can be struggling financially and mentally seeing you outgrow them, and how difficult it is to have an actual bond with them anymore if they aren’t on your same level, because the relationship becomes one sided. It’s much deeper than just hating on the dude asking for money. Joyner has day 1s and clearly elevated the people around him putting them in music videos and helping their careers. This is someone who he has actually tried to elevate with him and even still it’s not good enough. Remember Joyner has a friend who took his own life as well, so he’s not the type to ignore other perspectives. That’s why his story telling is so good
Nah, just like with Em fans sometimes, you’re looking for deeper meaning in something that’s not there. There’s literally NOTHING that can be redeemed in a person who has those types of feelings inside for you that’s that close to you. It’s literally physically dangerous. Joyner is one of the most creative artists out there and while this was yet another creative video and song, it really wasn’t anything more than a “fake friends” warning. Also, he borrowed heavily from Hopsin’s “Alone with me” concept. He just took that idea and flipped it into a “fake friend” concept. When he got to the part where he said that he would never be Kendrick, Cole, or Drake, that pretty much confirmed my suspicions about that. The fact that Hopsin admitted to being jealous of Joyner in that video tells me that he was somewhere in the world frustrated as Hell cause I KNOW that he recognized the similarities. Poor Hop can’t catch a break.🤦🏽♂️🤣
i hope he does, but considering how long it took for leo to win one, you have to be the best of the best. but he did a damn good job here, that’s fosure
“Blood don’t make motherfuckers close, you ain’t gotta be blood to be a brother”.. that is 100, make a shirt, a sign, a poster, something out of that.. that is real frfr.. love your content, never miss anything.. god bless you my guy
Man, this song moves the hell out of my soul, that s one reason joyner gon be one of my fav artists ever, no one can do a song like this beside, he s one of the goats already
With all do respect Joyner makes nothing but FIRE! He's a lyrical genius! Him coming this hard doesn't surprise me a bit. He should be acknowledged WAY MORE!
Love the reaction. I think the deep part is the duality. When people make it, that’s what friends and fam think. The deep part is this what the people that have made it out hear subconsciously from friends and fam. It’s deep on so many levels.
Man, your review was spot on to first my reaction - right from the 'oh good, this isn't going to be some more bull shit from Joyner' to the 'oh fuck this is fire!!!' Such a pleasure to listen to it again with you and see how you felt. Keep on doin' that thang!
😐..💭🎥The video was an emotional roller-coaster. ~I like the Harmonizing! 🎶🎵/ That actor deserves an award for the acting in this video!...👍🏼(He reminds me of Orlando Brown from the Raven show.)
The song and the video is 🔥. I rarely watch music videos anymore, and I just happened to see it and hadn't heard the song yet, glad I watched the video, it gave me goosebumps.
Some poeple just wanna feed off other people's success and have self-entitlement, even if they were your best friend since day one, that doesn't mean they deserve everything you worked hard for.
This song encompasses exactly why you keep one eye open! Joyner did this. Real talk ppl will ride your coat tail and expect so much from your hard work because YOUR their friend but their really not yours all about what you can do for them. Yeah this hit right 💯
For real, Joyner is in that league 🔥. 'Lucky you' is incredible and I hope they collaborate again soon! Joyner reminds me of a mixture of Tupac and Eminem.
Jeesh, I'm glad to hear I wasn't the only one that thought some of his recent stuff was whack....sipping lean, flaunting wealth....like wtf happened to the realness? Glad to see he's back at it!
Damn i was hoping they do a track together. Cuz they both got fire music. And i love his acting on power as Dre. I liked this track tho acting was great. Its so true they claim they want best for u, but really they want to see u fall, or jealous. I liked this one. But bummed it wasnt both them singing on a track.
@3:56, nothing wrong with a rewind......they did it in regggea all the time, cos it prepaired you for what the dj needed from the audiance and the music, respect, tuning in and kicking off in a good way, when it feels soooo good the music playing makes us all 1......a rare, rare and special feeling. And fluffing beyond amazing too....🎉 Im 65 female, that was heavy shit! Happy to refer this to my son too, he might like it? 👍 The bomb! V good.....😊
Rotimi's facial expressions is everything!!! 💯
That boy went Dre real quick❤😅
He's a pretty good actor
ye, he made the whole song!
Anyone noticed the green in his eyes #ENVY
That facial expression and the angle...is he a friend or a foe?
Joyner's rapping and Rotimi's acting. Pure fire 🔥🔥🔥
Joyner is trash. No one listens to dude. He’s in the corny rapper category with guys like Logic and Tech N9ne.
He deserves his credit too
The fact that joyner tried to pitch this as a show shows his creative genius. This would be a dope premise for a show. He said it would have been him and rotimi starring in it. He been sitting on this for a year.
Can he act though?
Wow, that is a good idea
I would DEF watch a series with this as the premise!
@@Highly3666i mean he acts in his music videos
@@Highly3666yeah he has before, check out his song ‘I’m sorry’ especially
Rotimi turned into Dre real quick lol 😂😂😂😂
Facts lol I was think dre too😂
Joyner definitely didn't disappoint with this one
One of the best songs I've heard recently. Joyner is at his best when he's on a good topic and he does the whole building up intensity thing that he does so well.
Stevie, that's Joyner's mom. He's put here in past music videos of his if I'm not mistaken. Fire ass song from Joyner and Rotimi's acting is top notch here. So good as Dre from Power.
Stevie is remembering her from the Ross capicchioni video
Dang she fine asl

Ummmm wow. Thanks for that, it's good to know.😊
I think he'll release cut u off video next .... In response .... 🤔 Soon as I heard it I thought is this the prelude??
You broke it down real well… thanks

I've watched this video like 10.times and I still get chills. I love this song
Rotimi acting incredible if he keeps this up on other projects he could land a gig that win him an Oscar
i hope he does, but considering how long it took for leo to win one, you have to be the best of the best.
but he did a damn good job here, that’s fosure
ROTIMI is his name...he is fire 🔥 acting, singing and everything he does Joyner did it it again🎉
Impeccable storyteller
Joyner said in the comments that this whole thing is a story of his life so yes he’s experienced it. Great reaction btw
“Blood don’t make motherfuckers close, you ain’t gotta be blood to be a brother”.. that is 100, make a shirt, a sign, a poster, something out of that.. that is real frfr.. love your content, never miss anything.. god bless you my guy
Blood makes you related
Loyalty makes you family
This feels like stan on a different level and between friends than an artist and fan
Nah this was tuffffffff. The visuals and storytelling crazy
Man, this song moves the hell out of my soul, that s one reason joyner gon be one of my fav artists ever, no one can do a song like this beside, he s one of the goats already
Joyner is one of the best storytellers of all time... 🔥
With all do respect Joyner makes nothing but FIRE! He's a lyrical genius! Him coming this hard doesn't surprise me a bit. He should be acknowledged WAY MORE!
"Keep your friends close but enemies closer" 🔥🔥🔥
Yooo the way you nod & shake your head when the song is going has me rolling 😂 how your head almost popped out 😂

Brooooo…. S N A P P E D on it. Love it so damn much. Jaw was dropped to the floor, seriously. Amazing song and video. 👏
Storytelling was good as it gets!!
😐..💭🎥The video was an emotional roller-coaster. ~I like the Harmonizing! 🎶🎵/ That actor deserves an award for the acting in this video!...👍🏼(He reminds me of Orlando Brown from the Raven show.)
I was waiting for this! Love your reactions brother ❤
I feel like Joyner planned every drop and new he was gonna get some hate, but had this shit in the chamber lol 😅🔥
Yeah im feeling he have some plans for the album and he surely is steps ahead of us .
Acting from Rotimi was absolutely pure talent
Imagine being the dude that said this to Joyner. Then you see him make a track about your struggle and profiting more off it.
That familiar lady is Joyner's mom
One of the best rap songs/video I’ve seen for YEARS!!!
The story, lyrics and acting...all 🔥 Dope
1st time hearing this song but I gotta hear it again cause this song is great💯🔥🔥
Yo thanks for putting me on bro. Gatdamn this song was hard
This is fire!
The song and the video is 🔥. I rarely watch music videos anymore, and I just happened to see it and hadn't heard the song yet, glad I watched the video, it gave me goosebumps.
Those intrusive thoughts be ittt thooo! He deserves an Oscar for this
I think "what's that" and "cut you off" was dope but this right here is fire!
Some poeple just wanna feed off other people's success and have self-entitlement, even if they were your best friend since day one, that doesn't mean they deserve everything you worked hard for.
Hi Stevie 👋🏻 we love you bro and thank you for all your hard work 👍🏻👏🏻
Rotimi was fire in this video. The acting off the chain...
Perfect video showcasing the "greed" from the "culture" no matter how close you are someone wants to take your spot.
Dre stay snaking his boys hug
This is an amazing project!!!
Champagne for everybody vibes 🔥🔥🔥
I love how he steps towards joyner in that breakdown.
Broski is Joyner's Stan.
hopsin dropped a new single at the same time as well!
4:44 that is Joyner Lucas real mom. You might have seen her in his Ross capapiconi video. She played Ross mom in that video.
Thats joyners mom with the straight hair
Joyner makin the right move with this one shout-out to the singer actor 🔥
The whole plot from Creed 3!!!
This song encompasses exactly why you keep one eye open! Joyner did this. Real talk ppl will ride your coat tail and expect so much from your hard work because YOUR their friend but their really not yours all about what you can do for them. Yeah this hit right 💯
The dope thing I like about this video is that fact Joyner has his mom and his manager (best friend )in the video. Joyner keeps his authenticity 💪🏾🔥
It’s the instrumental for me, changes the dynamic of the whole song.
The song definitely fire i was waiting to see your reaction!!
Oh I been waiting on this react!
Your reactions are insane men. Shoutout 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was great man
This a masterpiece song and visuals
Joyner brings the passion and technical skill that could rival Eminem
For real, Joyner is in that league 🔥. 'Lucky you' is incredible and I hope they collaborate again soon! Joyner reminds me of a mixture of Tupac and Eminem.
All of a sudden the " cut you off" track prior to this makes more sense
"Just Cuz We Family Don't Make Us Related"....Joyner
It's resentment that builds when try to follow the blue print but don't get the same results
I think all the songs he released with the “NOT NOW, I’M BUSY” tag are part of a concept of his album.
Jeesh, I'm glad to hear I wasn't the only one that thought some of his recent stuff was whack....sipping lean, flaunting wealth....like wtf happened to the realness? Glad to see he's back at it!
Blood makes you related. Loyalty makes you family.
This takes me back to Ross cappichioni style Joyner, and it’s my favorite
Cold.. From Head to Toe... COLDDDD
Personally I liked “cut you off” but I just think it was really cool how he dropped “cut you off” and then this one.
One of the best Joyner videos out there for sure…🎉🎉🎉
This has happened to me more than once and from family. I have since learned to cut people off for my own peace of mind.
Caskey !!
Cleaning out my closet freestyle fool!!!!
Damn i was hoping they do a track together. Cuz they both got fire music. And i love his acting on power as Dre.
I liked this track tho acting was great. Its so true they claim they want best for u, but really they want to see u fall, or jealous. I liked this one.
But bummed it wasnt both them singing on a track.
I was so glad to see this, 10 seconds in I knew… we got Joyner back on this one 🎉
This was an actual masterpiece
The light skinned long haired lady was Ross Capicchioni's mom in his 'Ross Capicchioni' video.
@3:56, nothing wrong with a rewind......they did it in regggea all the time, cos it prepaired you for what the dj needed from the audiance and the music, respect, tuning in and kicking off in a good way, when it feels soooo good the music playing makes us all 1......a rare, rare and special feeling. And fluffing beyond amazing too....🎉 Im 65 female, that was heavy shit! Happy to refer this to my son too, he might like it? 👍 The bomb! V good.....😊
Bro this new album is fire bruhh
No joke. Glad story telling Joyner is back!
Damn he went hard like he's back
About time man I waiting for thiss
U KILLED THIS ONE MR. KNIGHT !!!
Straight 🔥
Dangerous reaction 😅😂
Track with future was fire. i mean not the future part but joyners voice on that beat is pure fire
Fuuuuuukk... this was HARD!! 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You're the Goat bro. 🐐
This track should have been in the Creed 3 soundtrack
This is that good shit!
That lady is his mom...i love he has his family in the video❤
Every artist has their down moments and floppish songs, what makes an artist great is how hard they bounce back. Love Joyner for that reason
Rotimi can do it all!!!! And Joyner is just 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yoh big bro wassup champ,appreciate the way you vibe and also how you break ‘em bars down is 💯,quick one..is the merch also available in S.A🇿🇦?
Droppin’ Bombs 💣!!
The lady in black dress is Joyners mom and Rotimi didn’t disappoint as usual lol
