i'm still wondering what about imagine dragons people don't like or they just hate them because they're popular, as an imagine dragons fan myself i can understand burnout of hearing Believer and thunder over and over again, but i personally feel like the origins, night visions, and smoke+mirrors albums where solid. don't really like their new stuff though. or maybe its just them being classified as pop whatever it is i just want to know 😂
@@paradoxtatorstudios9681 I think my problem was Believer and Thunder being blasted in an echoey cafeteria on repeat for a fundraiser our school (at the time) was doing.
Legit one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard. I can’t believe it was so loved and popular. Pharrell is such a genius too. Its wild he came up with that garbage
I can't listen to that song without being reminded of the time someone in my afterschool program played it 10 times in a row. That incident really made me hate the song more than I probably would have.
I was at one of my friends younger siblings birthday and I guess they were using an old playlist, or they were trying to use "what the kids like these days" But MAN everyone kid and there moms got on the dance floor, maybe cause the little kids forced their moms, but still 💀
Ironically, “Happy” by Pharell Williams sounds like the kind of song that would be playing over top of a deeply traumatic event in a movie or show. It’s all I think about now because when “Happy” was coming back, I was in the middle of a bad depression so needless to say…. It was not happy-
let me tell you something - Pharel Williams has another song called "Happy", which is actually incredibly depressing on purpose(?). it's by his band N.E.R.D.
Yeah this song always sucked for me, had to sing it in choir in elementary school while o was going through a lot of traumatic stuff at home. Reminds me of that easy street song they played in the walking dead as torture for Daryl
@@katej2284 I hope you're actually joking, but your comment sounds serious lol. The song sounds ridiculous to begin with, but the addition of the totally nonexistent word you just said is even worse. I can't possibly believe anyone unironically likes that song unless they were 14 when it came out.
I lived through Disco Duck. I was 10 years old. It was an awful time. It was the number one hit in the US and you couldn't turn on a radio without hearing it. Truly awful. It still sometimes earworms its way into my head
I lived through Disco Duck as well. That song encompasses everything terrible about the 1970s. Just needs an oil embargo and polyester leisure suits for men to encompass the full horror
i was born in the 90s and the first time i heard it was in Saturday Night Fever and i genuinely thought that was a joke song made for the soundtrack or to clown on disco scenes I had no idea what y'all were put through 😭 respect
People who weren’t teenagers in the 90’s or 00’s will never know how entrenched the word retarded was back then; it’s going to be that generation’s “pop is going on his rants again” in 40 years like the boomer generation and the n word
Agreed. I'm on the spectrum and have stopped using it, but I miss being able to do so since I don't have many other insults that are as effective as the r-word used to be.
I call myself it, being disabled mentally and physically even if people look at me funny. I've always hated myself and never seen it as a slur against myself, so it's weird to me that it's now a slur.
It literally only became widely discouraged like four years ago, being a teenager in 2010s it was like other curse words: you didn’t say it in front of teachers or parents but literally everyone said it to each other.
The All In The Family one is so weird to me. I remember staying in a mental hospital for 8 days and for whatever reason the people I was with really liked this song. Lol listening to the lyrics I was very confused as to why they even liked it in the first of.
when i was in rehab like 4 years ago the most popular artists by far were machine gun kelly and NF. i've never met a fan of either outside of that place.
people take that song so seriously but the whole point of it was to make a song in the style of a schoolyard fight and for shits and giggles hence the end chorus
@@littlecesars6917 See, if the song were recorded by people who were not middle-aged teenagers, leaving it coming off way too in-line with their normal demeanors, then maybe it wouldn't come off so badly.
Love the videos but i just want to defend korn right quick, Jonathan Davis himself in an interview a couple of years ago says that he hates the song and its the "worst song we ever did" and blames the song on drug and alcohol abuse. Im a huge fan of korn and they are not homophobic people, they support gay rights; jon used the slur because he was abused using it when he was in high school. Of course this doesn't excuse it but just a discussion.
@@thedogfromraditude5449 And to add to this: although it's not 100% confirmed from him or any else, but according to the Bisexual subreddit, Jonathan is Bi.

Also foolish pride by Eminem, it’s a song from his teenage years that sounds like a bad vanilla ice song. Also in the song he goes on a long rant about how he won’t date black women because they steal money.
32:52 - The Beatles "It's Okay To Leave A Dog In A Hot Car" is by a musician on RUclips named Billy Cobb. He is noted for doing a project called Zerwee which is his take on Weezer.
Fun fact about Follow the Leader, the Korn album that "All in the Family" came from: the band was reported to have spent over $60,000 on alcohol during the recording sessions of the album. You see what excessive alcohol consumption does to people?
“Heart-Shape Glasses” is totally a Lolita reference because of the iconography that came out of it after the film adaptations. It’s referring to Evan Rachel Wood’s young age. It’s GROSS.
@@natebox4550 Lolita is actually a movie/book, but it would be towards that direction. I hate that Lolita can be an alt fashion style or a creepy work of art (that i don't like.)
@@natebox4550 problem is theres the -con, there's the movie, and the fashion style. The fashion lolitas hate it being sexualized or overly infantilized, so it's.. very confusing to know where they took it from.
I love how badly aged this song is on multiple different levels, because it makes Katy Perry look bad as a person. For reasons other than period-typical homophobia. I think it was supposed to be a diss track on emo/metrosexual fads at the time, and also possibly on Pete Wentz (of Fall Out Boy) OR Travie McCoy (Katy Perry's ex-boyfriend, friend of Pete Wentz, member of Gym Class Heroes). And the diss itself is... baffling, because of the "faults" of the subject of the song, such as: not liking LA, being vegetarian, being skinny, wearing eyeliner and needing sunscreen. Terrifying. What a monster of a man. lmao
I don’t understand the problem with a song having a “dated” sound. Trends come and go, and I think it’s cool when a song is like a snapshot of the time it was produced. I think it’s valid to criticize songs for bad/unfortunate lyrics or using slurs, but what’s wrong with a 90s song sounding like it’s from the 90s?
@@artthenecromancer404 Yeah, there's a difference between sounding like it was made in the 1990s and sounding like it should never have left the 1990s.
I think the Korn song was self aware. It's titled "All In the Family" which was a show revolving a racist, sexist, homophobic old white guy and his progressive for the era family. It showcased him basically being a dinosaur in a changing world
also the song seemed like an attempt at satire of homophobic people. like they were acting like stereotypical big tough guys trying to emasculate each-other, then at the end the big reveal is they actually have homosexual thoughts about eachother. worst song on the album still, but a little context.
@@gnarpress yeah, I never heard the song outside of this video, so I never heard the end of it, but the title of the song, and like you said, the way they were acting made it seem like satire.
Yeah, especially with the last lyric being very homoerotic. I could see this being a not fully formed statement about the nature of homophobic posturing between insecure dudes in a similar style to some of Tyler the Creator's work.
Yeah time can really obscure satire sometimes. But this song and its statement was so core that it inspired the name of the massive festival they created. I mean dude was piercing his eyebrows and wearing kilts and leading the Family Values Tour at a time when rightwing politicians were literally burning rock and rap records on their campaigns to "save family values". Nowadays rock bands think they're being subversive by being the antagonist in the same debate.
I so badly wish a hard rock/metal band would cover bleeding love by Leona Lewis. Can you imagine a screaming vocal going "YOU CUT ME OPEN AND I!! KEEP BLEEDING!! KEEP KEEP BLEEDING!"
Went to a random bar once and the band playing a gig that night did a rock cover of it and I couldn't believe how well it worked. It's like how the song should have been all along.
blaming Gorillaz for not being psychic is insane. they couldn't have known about him turning out to be a domestic abuser. really surprised nobody else is commenting about this.
I don't think anyone is blaming them for that tho. He never blamed them directly. Gorillaz have ommited the song entirely from concerts despite how popular it was.
i think u gotta point tho. too often people wanna cancel artists and bands because of the actions of OTHER members… and it’s like … bro unless they straight up knew about it it’s not their fault at all
I always think ‘Happy’ sounds like some kind of dystopian governmental anthem. Thinking of something like 1984 or that game ‘We Happy Few’ To be a happy song, I just find it so weirdly cold and sanitised sounding. Maybe just me haha
It reminds me so much of that "everything is awesome" song from the Lego movie. Also there's just something kind of unsettling about the whole "you should be happy because that's what YOU wanna do" message.
I feel the same way, always have. It doesn't feel like a celebration, it feels like a command. It feels like I'm being ordered to be happy. You feel that way because it is entirely sanitized and soulless. That's why the radio felt comfortable pushing it down everyone's throats.
And the song describes the teenage love, someone that is heavily promoted at that time with songs like "Ballad of a Teenage Queen" by Johnny Cash, "Teenage Crush" by Tommy Sands, "Teenager In Love", and basically every Ricky Nelson, Paul Anka and Frankie Avalon songs
Can we also talk about how different the mixes are between "Let's Get Retarded" and "Let's Get it Started"? Most people will confidently know Let's Get it Started for its Spike Mix. The original Let's Get Retarded sounds so empty and thin, whereas when Mark "Spike" Stent remixed it with B.E.P. reworking the vocals, it becomes much more recogniseable.
Your comments on "Like a G6" are a huge W. The people who were into it back then were onto something. The production really was both of its time and ahead of its time in a way that Black Eyed Peas and LMFAO can never claim. I've also realized just how formative that sound was to my journey with electronic music, especially as this set the stage for my dubstep obsession in high school. Even if I pretended to hate the song back then, I couldn't deny there was a part of me that really got it. Honestly, listening back on the full song, the hook and verses aren't nearly as annoying as I thought back then (except for the "bridge" - definitely could've left that out).
I love “Like a G6”, it was my ringtone for an entire year at high school. Love the auto-crooned vocals, the percussion SLAPS and even though it’s a blatant rip-off of Black Eyed peas, they do it so well that it doesn’t matter aha
@@DJIncendration If anything it rips off what was popular in Europe at the time. But I would call it an adaptation, ripping off is so derogatory and the song doesn't deserve it.
Genuinely awestruck in how terrible Doin' Your Mom is. I remember hearing it in high school. I remember seeing the video at some point. But fuck, I was not prepared to revisit it
im ngl that tribe song is a painful one as a big fan of theirs, they were legit one of the most progressive groups at the time calling out mysogyny, rape culture, and pushing for black unity, but EVEN THEY were mad homophobic. (one of consious raps biggest failings in general) I'm glad that they seem to have grown out of it with the banger "we the people" from their last album shouting out lgbt in the chorus, but honestly i really cant speak for non hetero folk so it is up to them really. RIP phife dawg, the 5 foot assasin.
This is the weirdest thing to even happen to me but Tyler Joseph’s dad was my middle school principle. I remember 21 pilots performing at my school for homecoming before they got big, what a small world.
That is so dope, see I don't listen to them anymore because tbh their music is incredibly boring now, but that doesn't take away from their insane talent. I think Tyler Joseph even spoke about how their mainstream success is kinda killing their music, and sadly he is right. That's just my opinion though, I know many still love them, and I stand by how talented they are, I just don't like the music.
Imagine living in a world where every time you turn on the radio you're in danger of hearing "Disco Duck". Seriously, it was a number-one godamned hit. It was a horrible, horrible time to be alive in America. You kids today just don't know how lucky you are!
When I worked in retail 5 years ago we played the Sirius XM “70s on 7” station and hearing Disco Duck was a daily occurrence so I can very much imagine that world
Try being 10 during the Macarena craze and having your teacher make the whole class do it together. Every week. For months. Not to diminish your pain, I do sympathize, but Disco Duck was only #1 for a week and #2 for 4 - Macarena was #1 for 14 goddamned weeks. 14 !!! It held the record for longest #1 all the way until Despacito
44:58 I remember hearing that song so much as a kid, never knew "lets get it started" wasn't the original lyric "lets get [REDACTED]" sounds so much more disjointed and awkward by comparison
I think "Disco Duck" was meant to be a parody of disco at the time. Disco was a polarizing genre at the time and you either liked it or despised it. When an impersonation of Donald Duck is included in the song, it shows that it's not meant to taken seriously. It takes all the worst parts of disco and makes it cartoonishly terrible. It's meant to be laughably bad. Edit: I also think the reason it was a #1 hit was because disco haters thought it was a funny parody and the joke might have been lost on people dancing to disco at the time. I mean, if disco Beethoven can become a hit, so can Disco Duck.
It's always been disappointing and surprising how many of the more "conscious" hip hop artists still had super outdated views on gender and sexuality. Super progressive until the masculinity threatened, then they become straight up socially conservative.
@@milesgeary6358 I'd say it's because they know one better than the other, in the case of racial prejudice it's something they'll directly be in contact with their whole life so it's easy, that's their experience, but they'd have no idea about struggle with gender and sexuality so they easily go the homophobic and misogynistic route. It goes to show that there's an hierarchy where even if you're under one type of oppression you can still enact another of your own
@tsg_frank5829 this is 100% spot on. Statistically speaking, the more uneducated one is, the more they tend to lean Conservative on the issues in which they are less educated in...
In Taylor's defence, she and Katy made up in 2019. That's almost five years after the song came out (so not immediately after). Katy also made a diss track in response which is equally as bad lol (Swish Swish), so I wouldn't necessarily say it aged badly because of the message. That being said, the song sucked from the start so... there wasn't anything to "age badly" but yeah it's bad Anyways, you should listen to Katy Perry's Ur So Gay if you want something that fits more into this category haha
Ur So Gay is such a hilarious song lmao. Damn, I should've chose that song as a Guilty Pleasure song in Brad's Community Post as I genuinely love the instrumental of that track.
I like a fair bit of Mindless Self Indulgence's music despite it being really juvenile. However, I will agree that much of their discography is very hit-and-miss.
Regardless of how this guy feels, you cannot convince me that Stupid MF is not the most banger song of theirs ever. That and Bitches and You're No Fun Anymore.
@@MellowGrunt10 Ill just tack on System of a downs Toxicity album dropped Sep 4 2001 with Jet Pilot as a track. With fun lyrics like My source is the source of all creation Her discourse is that we all don't survey The skies right before, right before they go grey My source and my remorse flying over a great bay
I have a soft spot for Doin’ Ya Mom just because I have this goofball of a friend, and him saying that he’s doin’ my mom is basically a happy, vocal stem for him. So as dumb as the song is, I don’t think I could ever hate it just because it makes my friend so happy
doin ya mom is the first song my best friend irl and i connected with. since then we have bonded over much better music, so i will never regret doin ya mom
For those who are into that sort of thing, Cher and Gregg Allman (yes, the ones you're thinking of) made an entire album of "look how in love we are!" during their all-too-brief and tumultuous marriage in the 70s. And it is truly a thing to behold.
It's funny that you guys are here. I'm not defending the content but the song being take out of context to be here, make me wonder about you guys. It's a little older than me but it was made for a time and place so far from here lol It's too far out of context for me to be redundant and say "you wouldn't get it" - there are songs he could have easily found but in the end I watched this to know I wasn't missing out, not listening to a lot of this music
I love how even Jonathan Davis, singer of Korn, thinks that All in the Family is their “dumbest f**king track they ever did” and cringes every time he hears it. There is no possible way to listen to that and not cringe, even if you’re the guy who did it.
You should definitely make a video on songs that have aged amazingly. My choice pick has to be La Femme Fetal by Digable Planets. I don't think the subject matter of abortion and women's bodily autonomy was a topic really explored in 90's Hip Hop and I think that's what makes it so special. A really underrated and timeless track off their debut album and it's crazy to think it's pushing 30.
So here's the thing about that Korn song: The ending was the point of it all. Yeah, kinda weird, but it always felt like a jab at the hip-hop community (from which they both draw inspiration) at the ever-present homophobia while calling out that some of them were very likely just closeted (turns out, they were).
This is my first Brad video but right now I like that his whole deal is leaning over sideways at me like he's gonna sell me fake Molly, but it's dodgy songs he's got in his backpack.
Sorry disco duck was unironically ahead of it's time. That's a meme song created before memes were an actual thing and it's glorious. Like so bad it's good
Dude the rap industry is still pretty homophobic, why do you think lil Nas X was such a big deal? It’s because gay rappers trying to make it in the industry in a traditional way are met with obstacles and outright hostility or kicked out when they are outed. As a queer black person i hope things get better. Apparently Tribe changed their views tho so that’s good, they just needed to unlearn that bigotry 🤷🏾♂️
i would like to add: i’m a skrillex apologist, i will die on that hill that skrillex is a good producer and was genuinely innovative. THAT SAID. “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” has aged ABYSMALLY. many of his songs (including most of that EP) have aged surprisingly well, but that song is just like… two completely different songs mashed together, like the drop has nothing in common with the rest of the song and the aggro sound is just so goofy. listened to the whole EP again a couple weeks ago and it was pretty good still, but there’s other things that have aged hilariously. just small details, like the way he uses sidechain compression and the super heavy compression in general on things like generic cheap sounding MIDI piano sounds - which were SUPER trendy in 2010-2014 for some reason. the songs are still good, but there are elements that sound super silly now. “Scary Monsters” aged like absolute dogshit tho
Skrillex isn’t bad at all, I think most of the hate he gets is because he sort of spearheaded dubstep from a much more mellow sound & tight knit community into a much... cheaper style?
I would agree. Skrillex is quite innovative and unique. Even though I'm not really into EDM anymore, I appreciate his contributions to music as a whole. Dude is talented.
Mamacita by OutKast. Andres verse is so.....yeesh. Thank God he's aged with grace and apologized for the verse, but it's never pleasant to hear bars about being violent with women, especially from someone like Andre 😔
@@sonflowersamurai10 I don't mind them because they were clearly stories. Fucked up as all hell, but it fit the narrative of the character of Slim Shady, and the tone/content of his earlier albums too. IMO it was so much worse in Mamacita because here's Outkast making so many uplifting and inspiring songs about love and liberation and celebrating blackness.....and then Andre comes with this verse. Really left a bad taste in my mouth.
@@maazwaseem8313 Fair enough, andre 3000 is built to be a super consious rapper i get that, but at what point does "playing a character" cross a line? Personally im not too sure myself seeing as i use the same justification for gangsta rappers anyways. mamacita is the worst song on aquemini in every regard by far tho
@@sonflowersamurai10 you could say that about actors too, sometimes they play awful characters, but is just that, acting, is all fiction. I do know that some people could use that as an excuse, but we shouldn't put every artist that has an awful character in their story, or else no one could create villains in fiction. is like with Tyler, The Creator's Goblin trilogy, it's a horrible person he is portraying, he even put a disclaimer in the beggining of a Goblin song, that is just fiction.
As a queer person myself I don't mind All In The Family it's one of my fave Korn Songs. If it came out right now I would hate it...but it was like 25 years ago and Fred Durst is Fred Durst.
@@upsidedownpyramid7617 agree it's funny and fun just if it came out now it would just be the wrong time, not even just about the slurs and homophobia used, just the whole thing is too late 90s y'know?
@@box0choco593 yeah I agree, slurs aside the song is hot garbage, even for it’s time, and I say that as a huge fan of korn and the deftones through that era.
Its insane you don't have Lil Wayne "Lollipop" on here. That song was the culmination of years of the club/crunk/hyphy era and was played on the radio and everywhere else more than any other song I have ever heard in my entire life.
32:54 In case anyone is wondering, "It's Okay To Leave A Dog In A Hot Car" is a song an AI wrote when fed Beatles lyrics. Lots of interesting "covers" of that one. Edit: That's the story I heard, and I'm not sure what to search to verify, so like the replies say I'm probably wrong.
no it is not lmao. its from an old tumblr post of a faked AZlyrics screenshot with those lyrics, and someone just decided to record it. an AI didn't write it lmfao
Him and I always gave “tacky 2015 Facebook couple that compares themselves to Harley Quinn and the Joker and has a messy public breakup after 3 months of being together that ends in a restraining order”
I was about to defend "Him & I" when I remembered I just confused it with "Me, Myself & I" by G-easy with Bebe Rexha. That song legit still bops without being cringe, and the melody's stuck in my head.
I don’t think Ride has aged poorly. It brings me back to summer 2016 when times were simpler and my cares were few. Also, it’s one of their better singles from Blurryface
I don’t have the same nostalgic attachment to twenty one pilots but I also think the song hasn’t aged poorly. It’s a fine song, definitely not on the same level of awfulness as other entries in this list
Speaking of tracks with year titles, "2015 was a good year" by JPEGMAFIA is such a great and catchy song for me and I do feel you when you talk about Injury Reserve's song
Milk… (milk milk milk) kliM. Milk… E G G S . . . muffins laid out on the counter… What do these 3 things have in common??? They don’t do well with time.
I work at McDonald’s and Ride by TOP is on the playlist EVERY SHIFT. Bad Blood by Taylor Swift is also on the playlist every shift. They both drive me insane
Big disagree on Glad You Came and Like a G6. I don't know what it is about Glad You Came but it just feels very euphoric, and I really like it even though it does sound dated. I can see why it was their only hit in the US. Like a G6 though, HELL nah. 2010's feels like a pretty lousy year for music looking back, and that's probably one of the prime suspects.
As someone who was a kid and teenager in the late 90’s-early 2000’s “ur gay and I’m not” was half of American culture. The 2010’s were boring, but at least they weren’t that.
honestly i did already know that "Let's Get It Started" was really "Let's Get R*tarded" but every time i remember it's a fucking punch to the gut, not just in the shock that there was ever an era where that would be okay, and also the fact that even at the time we tried so hard to collectively forget it with the clean edit lmfao.
I love the fact he included The Beatles parody song "It's Okay to Leave Your Dog in a Hot Car" (Sung by Billy Cobb) As a Beatles fan, i find that hilarious.
seeing him chuckle like this makes me smile. i was legit hurting for my guy cause ive been there no passion everything sucks kinda feeling. been for a while. since your reviews were basically shitposts
I think death to autotune still holds up. While not "ringtone rap" we do have tik tok rap today. For example drake's toosie slide was hot garbage, but was basically just made to be a tik tok sound. So I think Jay's whole argument of making actual good rap vs songs just for a ring tones still kinda makes sense
Yeah, tiktok rap is the same thing. You need one hook in the whole song and the rest doesn’t matter. It’s funny content attention span is the same today as a phone ringing was in the 2000s.
When "Happy" got popular a lot of universities in Turkey used it in their commercials. Then so many of them got trustee appointed because they had connections with the coup-attempting cult/terror organization. So whenever I hear that song, I feel unsafe.
Follow the Leader was iconic to me as an early teenager. All the kids who pretended to know FTL were walking around singing Freak on a Leash, but those of us who had it were goin hard on All in the Family.
I was once told that AJR is Imagine Dragons for Christian kids with even stricter parents and I can't unhear it

or maybe its just them being classified as pop

Ironically, “Happy” by Pharell Williams sounds like the kind of song that would be playing over top of a deeply traumatic event in a movie or show. It’s all I think about now because when “Happy” was coming back, I was in the middle of a bad depression so needless to say…. It was not happy-
Yes
let me tell you something - Pharel Williams has another song called "Happy", which is actually incredibly depressing on purpose(?). it's by his band N.E.R.D.
not really
the only thing i associate that song with is Just Dance 2015(?)
(to the point where i can still recite parts of the dance lmao)
Yeah this song always sucked for me, had to sing it in choir in elementary school while o was going through a lot of traumatic stuff at home. Reminds me of that easy street song they played in the walking dead as torture for Daryl
I think "Like A G6" aged well...because look at what hyperpop did to 2020...anything Ke$ha or Uffie sounds fresh again lol
fr though ! I've always liked that song and listening to a lot of hyperpop music, it really reminds you of that

Sucks for you I’m gonna go listen to it again!
I lived through Disco Duck as well. That song encompasses everything terrible about the 1970s. Just needs an oil embargo and polyester leisure suits for men to encompass the full horror

People who weren’t teenagers in the 90’s or 00’s will never know how entrenched the word retarded was back then; it’s going to be that generation’s “pop is going on his rants again” in 40 years like the boomer generation and the n word
Agreed. I'm on the spectrum and have stopped using it, but I miss being able to do so since I don't have many other insults that are as effective as the r-word used to be.
I call myself it, being disabled mentally and physically even if people look at me funny. I've always hated myself and never seen it as a slur against myself, so it's weird to me that it's now a slur.
It literally only became widely discouraged like four years ago, being a teenager in 2010s it was like other curse words: you didn’t say it in front of teachers or parents but literally everyone said it to each other.

Love the videos but i just want to defend korn right quick, Jonathan Davis himself in an interview a couple of years ago says that he hates the song and its the "worst song we ever did" and blames the song on drug and alcohol abuse. Im a huge fan of korn and they are not homophobic people, they support gay rights; jon used the slur because he was abused using it when he was in high school. Of course this doesn't excuse it but just a discussion.
They also have a song on Self-Titled that calls out homophobia and is written from the perspective of an LGBT+ person facing discrimination.
this and the reply is good to know
Yeah, easily the worst Korn song I've ever heard in my entire life. Some Korn songs are bad or boring, but not All in the family bad.

Another song I would add is “ur so gay” by Katy Perry. The productions cheap, the way she sings the song, the melody, and obviously the lyrics
only by reading the name of the song i already know why it aged poorly 💀
as a member of the lgbt community i actually love this song. it’s more about metrosexuals before that became a term used for it
The hook is soo horrible that I couldn't believe It was coming from a singer such as Katy Perry. Like damn
I love how badly aged this song is on multiple different levels, because it makes Katy Perry look bad as a person. For reasons other than period-typical homophobia. I think it was supposed to be a diss track on emo/metrosexual fads at the time, and also possibly on Pete Wentz (of Fall Out Boy) OR Travie McCoy (Katy Perry's ex-boyfriend, friend of Pete Wentz, member of Gym Class Heroes). And the diss itself is... baffling, because of the "faults" of the subject of the song, such as: not liking LA, being vegetarian, being skinny, wearing eyeliner and needing sunscreen. Terrifying. What a monster of a man. lmao
She kissed a girl and she liked it, but she's homophobic? Doubt it

@@bloorb0569exactly, the stupidity meter went up
I don’t understand the problem with a song having a “dated” sound. Trends come and go, and I think it’s cool when a song is like a snapshot of the time it was produced. I think it’s valid to criticize songs for bad/unfortunate lyrics or using slurs, but what’s wrong with a 90s song sounding like it’s from the 90s?
To a degree sounding dated is fine IMO but something can sound *too* dated if it makes sense, to a point where it’s unbearably corny
@@artthenecromancer404 Yeah, there's a difference between sounding like it was made in the 1990s and sounding like it should never have left the 1990s.
I think the Korn song was self aware. It's titled "All In the Family" which was a show revolving a racist, sexist, homophobic old white guy and his progressive for the era family. It showcased him basically being a dinosaur in a changing world
also the song seemed like an attempt at satire of homophobic people. like they were acting like stereotypical big tough guys trying to emasculate each-other, then at the end the big reveal is they actually have homosexual thoughts about eachother. worst song on the album still, but a little context.
@@gnarpress yeah, I never heard the song outside of this video, so I never heard the end of it, but the title of the song, and like you said, the way they were acting made it seem like satire.
Yeah, especially with the last lyric being very homoerotic. I could see this being a not fully formed statement about the nature of homophobic posturing between insecure dudes in a similar style to some of Tyler the Creator's work.
I can't believe they released it as a single too lmaooo. I like that album though, but without fail i skip that song every time.
Yeah time can really obscure satire sometimes. But this song and its statement was so core that it inspired the name of the massive festival they created. I mean dude was piercing his eyebrows and wearing kilts and leading the Family Values Tour at a time when rightwing politicians were literally burning rock and rap records on their campaigns to "save family values". Nowadays rock bands think they're being subversive by being the antagonist in the same debate.
i think "I Knew You Were Trouble" has massive potential as a rock song, but i've never heard anyone do it the way it's in my head.
I so badly wish a hard rock/metal band would cover bleeding love by Leona Lewis. Can you imagine a screaming vocal going
"YOU CUT ME OPEN AND I!!
KEEP BLEEDING!!
KEEP KEEP BLEEDING!"
I do like the cover by We Came As Romans, though it's definitely not as heavy as the song has the potential to be.
Went to a random bar once and the band playing a gig that night did a rock cover of it and I couldn't believe how well it worked. It's like how the song should have been all along.
We Came As Romans did a good metalcore/post-hardcore cover of it
The vocalist from Set It Off also has a cover that I like a lot (even if the mixing is pretty bad)
blaming Gorillaz for not being psychic is insane. they couldn't have known about him turning out to be a domestic abuser. really surprised nobody else is commenting about this.
I don't think anyone is blaming them for that tho. He never blamed them directly. Gorillaz have ommited the song entirely from concerts despite how popular it was.
i think u gotta point tho. too often people wanna cancel artists and bands because of the actions of OTHER members… and it’s like … bro unless they straight up knew about it it’s not their fault at all
That would be crazy if anyone was actually blaming gorillaz
someone doesnt know what aged like milk means
@@sarahdiehl2672i guess saying something aged poorly is 'cancel culture' now?
I always think ‘Happy’ sounds like some kind of dystopian governmental anthem.
Thinking of something like 1984 or that game ‘We Happy Few’
To be a happy song, I just find it so weirdly cold and sanitised sounding. Maybe just me haha
Weird Al's Tacky is a better version and makes you feel genuinely happier.
It reminds me so much of that "everything is awesome" song from the Lego movie. Also there's just something kind of unsettling about the whole "you should be happy because that's what YOU wanna do" message.
@@lordowl3533 Same page
If you want a song that plays into that kind of idea, you'd like the song "anytime you smile" by JT music
I feel the same way, always have. It doesn't feel like a celebration, it feels like a command. It feels like I'm being ordered to be happy. You feel that way because it is entirely sanitized and soulless. That's why the radio felt comfortable pushing it down everyone's throats.
One detail : “You’re 16” is a cover song from the 50s. It was a one hit wonder song by Johnny Burnett.
@Evan Wright The Sherman Brothers wrote that!? Well shit
And a #1 for Ringo Starr in the '70s
If you're not 16 and you're singing this, you're on a watch list somewhere.
Noo, Johnny Burnette had a hit prior with "Dreamin"
And the song describes the teenage love, someone that is heavily promoted at that time with songs like "Ballad of a Teenage Queen" by Johnny Cash, "Teenage Crush" by Tommy Sands, "Teenager In Love", and basically every Ricky Nelson, Paul Anka and Frankie Avalon songs
Fun fact even Korn hates all in the family and both jon and head have called that song the worst Korn song to exist

Can we also talk about how different the mixes are between "Let's Get Retarded" and "Let's Get it Started"? Most people will confidently know Let's Get it Started for its Spike Mix. The original Let's Get Retarded sounds so empty and thin, whereas when Mark "Spike" Stent remixed it with B.E.P. reworking the vocals, it becomes much more recogniseable.
I agree. In addition to being more respectful, it's just overall a better produced song and it's one of the few B.E.P hits I really like.
Your comments on "Like a G6" are a huge W. The people who were into it back then were onto something. The production really was both of its time and ahead of its time in a way that Black Eyed Peas and LMFAO can never claim. I've also realized just how formative that sound was to my journey with electronic music, especially as this set the stage for my dubstep obsession in high school. Even if I pretended to hate the song back then, I couldn't deny there was a part of me that really got it. Honestly, listening back on the full song, the hook and verses aren't nearly as annoying as I thought back then (except for the "bridge" - definitely could've left that out).
I love “Like a G6”, it was my ringtone for an entire year at high school. Love the auto-crooned vocals, the percussion SLAPS and even though it’s a blatant rip-off of Black Eyed peas, they do it so well that it doesn’t matter aha
I don't think it's a ripoff.
@@DJIncendration If anything it rips off what was popular in Europe at the time. But I would call it an adaptation, ripping off is so derogatory and the song doesn't deserve it.
Dat Bass!
Genuinely awestruck in how terrible Doin' Your Mom is. I remember hearing it in high school. I remember seeing the video at some point. But fuck, I was not prepared to revisit it
im ngl that tribe song is a painful one as a big fan of theirs, they were legit one of the most progressive groups at the time calling out mysogyny, rape culture, and pushing for black unity, but EVEN THEY were mad homophobic. (one of consious raps biggest failings in general)
I'm glad that they seem to have grown out of it with the banger "we the people" from their last album shouting out lgbt in the chorus, but honestly i really cant speak for non hetero folk so it is up to them really.
RIP phife dawg, the 5 foot assasin.
This is the weirdest thing to even happen to me but Tyler Joseph’s dad was my middle school principle. I remember 21 pilots performing at my school for homecoming before they got big, what a small world.
That's sooo badass!
Only in Ohio
bro imagine walking into homecoming and something like ode to sleep was playing, id be so confused lmaoo
That is so dope, see I don't listen to them anymore because tbh their music is incredibly boring now, but that doesn't take away from their insane talent. I think Tyler Joseph even spoke about how their mainstream success is kinda killing their music, and sadly he is right. That's just my opinion though, I know many still love them, and I stand by how talented they are, I just don't like the music.
These are like Fantano’s themed ‘Let’s Argue’ videos but more relaxed and personal, which is very exactly what I look for in Brad’s content :)

Imagine living in a world where every time you turn on the radio you're in danger of hearing "Disco Duck". Seriously, it was a number-one godamned hit. It was a horrible, horrible time to be alive in America. You kids today just don't know how lucky you are!
I'm not american nor an adult, but I can imagine the nightmare 💀
When I worked in retail 5 years ago we played the Sirius XM “70s on 7” station and hearing Disco Duck was a daily occurrence so I can very much imagine that world
I heard ME by Taylor Swift and Brandon Urie every day for a while and I gotta say Disco Duck is better than that pile of ear wax.
Omg 😭
Try being 10 during the Macarena craze and having your teacher make the whole class do it together. Every week. For months. Not to diminish your pain, I do sympathize, but Disco Duck was only #1 for a week and #2 for 4 - Macarena was #1 for 14 goddamned weeks. 14 !!! It held the record for longest #1 all the way until Despacito
44:58 I remember hearing that song so much as a kid, never knew "lets get it started" wasn't the original lyric
"lets get [REDACTED]" sounds so much more disjointed and awkward by comparison

i thought the un-edited version was just a shitpost for the longest time. to this day i still can't believe it's the real deal
I literally at this exact moment found out that it's not "Let's Get it Started"
I think "Disco Duck" was meant to be a parody of disco at the time. Disco was a polarizing genre at the time and you either liked it or despised it. When an impersonation of Donald Duck is included in the song, it shows that it's not meant to taken seriously. It takes all the worst parts of disco and makes it cartoonishly terrible. It's meant to be laughably bad.
Edit: I also think the reason it was a #1 hit was because disco haters thought it was a funny parody and the joke might have been lost on people dancing to disco at the time. I mean, if disco Beethoven can become a hit, so can Disco Duck.
You’re giving Disco Duck way too much credit. Rick Dees was just an unfunny radio DJ that made a song lol
It's always been disappointing and surprising how many of the more "conscious" hip hop artists still had super outdated views on gender and sexuality. Super progressive until the masculinity threatened, then they become straight up socially conservative.
Most rappers are conservative on just about every issue aside from racism and criminal justice.
Goes for some punk too.
Looking at you, bad brains
@@milesgeary6358
I'd say it's because they know one better than the other, in the case of racial prejudice it's something they'll directly be in contact with their whole life so it's easy, that's their experience, but they'd have no idea about struggle with gender and sexuality so they easily go the homophobic and misogynistic route.
It goes to show that there's an hierarchy where even if you're under one type of oppression you can still enact another of your own
Artists had now outdated views in the past? Unbelievable.
@tsg_frank5829 this is 100% spot on. Statistically speaking, the more uneducated one is, the more they tend to lean Conservative on the issues in which they are less educated in...

In Taylor's defence, she and Katy made up in 2019. That's almost five years after the song came out (so not immediately after).
Katy also made a diss track in response which is equally as bad lol (Swish Swish), so I wouldn't necessarily say it aged badly because of the message.

I like a fair bit of Mindless Self Indulgence's music despite it being really juvenile. However, I will agree that much of their discography is very hit-and-miss.
Regardless of how this guy feels, you cannot convince me that Stupid MF is not the most banger song of theirs ever. That and Bitches and You're No Fun Anymore.

You should definitely make a video on songs that have aged amazingly. My choice pick has to be La Femme Fetal by Digable Planets. I don't think the subject matter of abortion and women's bodily autonomy was a topic really explored in 90's Hip Hop and I think that's what makes it so special. A really underrated and timeless track off their debut album and it's crazy to think it's pushing 30.
Fantastic track on a great record.

So here's the thing about that Korn song: The ending was the point of it all. Yeah, kinda weird, but it always felt like a jab at the hip-hop community (from which they both draw inspiration) at the ever-present homophobia while calling out that some of them were very likely just closeted (turns out, they were).

Hard disagree, their debut and 2nd album still slaps to this day
The disrespect to "I Gotta Feeling"
Right, im still listening to them on a regular basis lmao
@@eminempreg it deserves it, I Gotta Feeling was ass when it came out and it's still ass now
Their music went downhill after adding Fergie

Dude the rap industry is still pretty homophobic, why do you think lil Nas X was such a big deal? It’s because gay rappers trying to make it in the industry in a traditional way are met with obstacles and outright hostility or kicked out when they are outed.
As a queer black person i hope things get better. Apparently Tribe changed their views tho so that’s good, they just needed to unlearn that bigotry 🤷🏾♂️
I was just getting into tribe so needless to say Georgie Porgie was surprising
Fun fact: Let’s Get Retarded was featured in the 2004 film “ Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle” in the scene where Kumar is trimming his pubic hair
In the scene where he's what 💀
@@CYCL0PZZZZ trimming his pubes. It looked like a bonsai tree
i would like to add:
i’m a skrillex apologist, i will die on that hill that skrillex is a good producer and was genuinely innovative. THAT SAID.
“Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” has aged ABYSMALLY. many of his songs (including most of that EP) have aged surprisingly well, but that song is just like… two completely different songs mashed together, like the drop has nothing in common with the rest of the song and the aggro sound is just so goofy.
listened to the whole EP again a couple weeks ago and it was pretty good still, but there’s other things that have aged hilariously. just small details, like the way he uses sidechain compression and the super heavy compression in general on things like generic cheap sounding MIDI piano sounds - which were SUPER trendy in 2010-2014 for some reason. the songs are still good, but there are elements that sound super silly now.
“Scary Monsters” aged like absolute dogshit tho
Skrillex sucks
Skrillex isn’t bad at all, I think most of the hate he gets is because he sort of spearheaded dubstep from a much more mellow sound & tight knit community into a much... cheaper style?
I would agree. Skrillex is quite innovative and unique. Even though I'm not really into EDM anymore, I appreciate his contributions to music as a whole. Dude is talented.
Bangarang EP is so surreal , it even has a collaboration with The Doors
The midi version slaps tho
And a lot of the people who love the worst songs are the same folks who say "Rap isn't music." smh
This is spot on, it’s boring shallow melodramatic music for shallow melodramatic boring people
Woody Allen's intro sounds like gecgecgecgec but not a joke. AJR are the unsung pioneers of Hyperpop-Breakcore.
Mamacita by OutKast. Andres verse is so.....yeesh. Thank God he's aged with grace and apologized for the verse, but it's never pleasant to hear bars about being violent with women, especially from someone like Andre 😔
Then there's eminem making bank off songs like kim or bonny and clyde his whole career...
@@sonflowersamurai10 I don't mind them because they were clearly stories. Fucked up as all hell, but it fit the narrative of the character of Slim Shady, and the tone/content of his earlier albums too.
IMO it was so much worse in Mamacita because here's Outkast making so many uplifting and inspiring songs about love and liberation and celebrating blackness.....and then Andre comes with this verse. Really left a bad taste in my mouth.
@@maazwaseem8313 Fair enough, andre 3000 is built to be a super consious rapper i get that, but at what point does "playing a character" cross a line? Personally im not too sure myself seeing as i use the same justification for gangsta rappers anyways.
mamacita is the worst song on aquemini in every regard by far tho
@@sonflowersamurai10 you could say that about actors too, sometimes they play awful characters, but is just that, acting, is all fiction. I do know that some people could use that as an excuse, but we shouldn't put every artist that has an awful character in their story, or else no one could create villains in fiction.
is like with Tyler, The Creator's Goblin trilogy, it's a horrible person he is portraying, he even put a disclaimer in the beggining of a Goblin song, that is just fiction.
gotta do the obligatory “if you want disco duck content, todd in the shadows has a good video on it”
As a queer person myself I don't mind All In The Family it's one of my fave Korn Songs. If it came out right now I would hate it...but it was like 25 years ago and Fred Durst is Fred Durst.
Same here, I am bisexual and the song is funny as shit.
@@upsidedownpyramid7617 agree it's funny and fun just if it came out now it would just be the wrong time, not even just about the slurs and homophobia used, just the whole thing is too late 90s y'know?
@@box0choco593 yeah I agree, slurs aside the song is hot garbage, even for it’s time, and I say that as a huge fan of korn and the deftones through that era.
@@upsidedownpyramid7617 it's so interesting though. Memorable even if good in the traditional sense isn't a descriptir
As a homophobic, i dont like the song
gonna be honest disco duck hasn't aged badly because it literally feels like a modern parody song, if anything it feels ahead of it's time
Its insane you don't have Lil Wayne "Lollipop" on here. That song was the culmination of years of the club/crunk/hyphy era and was played on the radio and everywhere else more than any other song I have ever heard in my entire life.
Cause it's a great song
This is tough because Brad ages like a fine wine, so I’m not sure if he’s qualified to review these homemade-cottage-cheese tracks
32:54 In case anyone is wondering, "It's Okay To Leave A Dog In A Hot Car" is a song an AI wrote when fed Beatles lyrics. Lots of interesting "covers" of that one.
Edit: That's the story I heard, and I'm not sure what to search to verify, so like the replies say I'm probably wrong.
no it is not lmao. its from an old tumblr post of a faked AZlyrics screenshot with those lyrics, and someone just decided to record it. an AI didn't write it lmfao
@@SilhouetteLifter and so much of the “I fed an AI etc etc” posts are just straight up fake
Inaccurate statement, not an ai.
No it's not. Check your facts

To summarize: this song is just those 2 kids whose only argument is "yr gay"
Him and I always gave “tacky 2015 Facebook couple that compares themselves to Harley Quinn and the Joker and has a messy public breakup after 3 months of being together that ends in a restraining order”
THAT IS THE PERFECT DESCRIPTION
I was about to defend "Him & I" when I remembered I just confused it with "Me, Myself & I" by G-easy with Bebe Rexha. That song legit still bops without being cringe, and the melody's stuck in my head.
You even confused the artist for Me, Myself & I. It's with Bebe Rexha not Rita Ora.
@@musichere3287 Damn, you're right lmao. Editing.
2015 memories holy shit
@@spaghetti5914 Ayyy, pasta bro 🍜🍜-
im old school and when you wrote "me, myself and i" i went to De La Soul
Actually never knew that ATCQ has a song discriminative of any kind, still one of my favorite rap acts ever
They matured majorly as heard in "We The People" by them.
I don’t think Ride has aged poorly. It brings me back to summer 2016 when times were simpler and my cares were few. Also, it’s one of their better singles from Blurryface
When he played the song to show how it was bad, I just bopped to it lmao
I don’t have the same nostalgic attachment to twenty one pilots but I also think the song hasn’t aged poorly. It’s a fine song, definitely not on the same level of awfulness as other entries in this list
Grew up with this song and it still slaps. It came on the radio back then for hours and I would bop to it all the time
Anybody who dislikes Twenty one pilots and thinks there music has aged poorly has an IQ of room temp.
i hated it when it came out but dont mind it now
That story about staying up all night on Roblox listening to 2013 pop radio is the most relatable shit I've ever heard lmao big ups Brad
Imagine being absolutely zonked out on blow at the roller rink and fucking disco duck comes on
Speaking of tracks with year titles, "2015 was a good year" by JPEGMAFIA is such a great and catchy song for me and I do feel you when you talk about Injury Reserve's song
ironically that JPEGMAFIA song ages pretty well because it's framed through the lens of reflection
The Korn and Limp Bizkit one was so awful but it was kinda hilarious.
It’s so bad that it’s good
@@kittiebizkit777 that's like the whole appeal of limp bizkit and fred knows it lol
I actually like that song and sing along to the whole album back in the day
It’s my least favorite song in the world. I know every single word to it…

They don’t do well with time.
I work at McDonald’s and Ride by TOP is on the playlist EVERY SHIFT. Bad Blood by Taylor Swift is also on the playlist every shift. They both drive me insane
Big disagree on Glad You Came and Like a G6. I don't know what it is about Glad You Came but it just feels very euphoric, and I really like it even though it does sound dated. I can see why it was their only hit in the US. Like a G6 though, HELL nah. 2010's feels like a pretty lousy year for music looking back, and that's probably one of the prime suspects.
As someone who was a kid and teenager in the late 90’s-early 2000’s “ur gay and I’m not” was half of American culture. The 2010’s were boring, but at least they weren’t that.
i will forever uphold Doin’ Your Mom as a classic. it’s a time capsule, and should be treasured.
40:31 Mom, Dad, I made it. I am officially a ten-second cameo in the Brad Taste In Music lore.
Congratulations son, you made it 🎶
hey, look ma i made it!
tell the vision's chorus
All In The Family is kinda ironic if you take into consideration where they got the name Korn from.
honestly i did already know that "Let's Get It Started" was really "Let's Get R*tarded" but every time i remember it's a fucking punch to the gut, not just in the shock that there was ever an era where that would be okay, and also the fact that even at the time we tried so hard to collectively forget it with the clean edit lmfao.
people still do this now. we just use different words like autistic in place of the r word.
@@A2Z83 gotta say using the word "autistic" instead of a literal slur still hurts as an autistic person :)
@@A2Z83 “we”
@@mmuussmiiisssimmmmmmiiiii1034 yes you are people

I love the fact he included The Beatles parody song "It's Okay to Leave Your Dog in a Hot Car"
(Sung by Billy Cobb)
As a Beatles fan, i find that hilarious.
The All in the Family roast literally had me laughing out loud. Subscribed. Thank you for that.
The only BEP song that has consistently gotten better for me is “Meet me Halfway” that song slaps
Fr that song goes so hard
their old shit go hard too, pre 2005 bep
Pump it still slaps
god yeah i still love that song, have since i was a kid
I hate that song. Pump it is WAAAAAY better
seeing him chuckle like this makes me smile. i was legit hurting for my guy cause ive been there no passion everything sucks kinda feeling. been for a while. since your reviews were basically shitposts
That tribe called quest track makes me wanna go and put all my tribe CDs in the microwave god fucking damnit
why? are you woke?
chill out man 💀💀💀
48 MINUTES? Brad you’re treating us, we don’t deserve this
Edit: 2 minutes in and already big props for listening to Promises, such a good album
you are looking like me when I am going to wake up tommorow
I think death to autotune still holds up. While not "ringtone rap" we do have tik tok rap today. For example drake's toosie slide was hot garbage, but was basically just made to be a tik tok sound. So I think Jay's whole argument of making actual good rap vs songs just for a ring tones still kinda makes sense
Yeah, tiktok rap is the same thing. You need one hook in the whole song and the rest doesn’t matter. It’s funny content attention span is the same today as a phone ringing was in the 2000s.
When "Happy" got popular a lot of universities in Turkey used it in their commercials. Then so many of them got trustee appointed because they had connections with the coup-attempting cult/terror organization. So whenever I hear that song, I feel unsafe.
Follow the Leader was iconic to me as an early teenager. All the kids who pretended to know FTL were walking around singing Freak on a Leash, but those of us who had it were goin hard on All in the Family.
