i know u late knox but j cole n tee grillzley - blow for blow, Ab-soul and kembe also just dropped - introvert, extrovert and theyre both full of bars, check them out u wont be disappointed..otw Cheeeers☺
Also when he says "no moves, minimal, smooth criminals" his furthering his lean bar. If you've ever done lean, you know you gonna have minimal moves, you gonna be sleeping probably "relaxed" meaning your smooth. Also harbouring and dork relates also to ships
He meant the caucasian neighbors bars kind of literally, I am from Fayetteville and the area he moved from to 2014 forest hills drive was a “whiter” area
true, especially how He starts with "I heard" like in hearding (gathering animals into a group and keeping them together) "a lot of sheep in the circle" "and you the goat, the Judas coming to purge" as in the judas goat ( a trained goat that leads other animals to a specific destination, often to slaughter)... not quite sure if Cole be the Judas goat in this case
"whole gang doing insane ammount of lean" is a quadruple entendre. The MJ lean. Drinking Lean Leaning while doing drive bys (causing screams in halloween) Lean as people dying from the actions above
Congratulations on the headline show!!! You may be right about Cole being the best feature artist rn. That man in the last 3-4 years has had some of the most ridiculous features

a building fitted with machinery for a manufacturing process. "a steel mill" starting an album from the ground up can be a manufacturing process with machinery aka producers audio directors and so on too as well.
That song you're mentioning is absolutely awesome I love the deep powerful message in the song and how real you were in it the fact Ren was on the hook was greatness I hope when he gets home from his treatment and whatnot and recovers you two can make an album together
Sharpest pen in the game. Stop the "he backed out" bs, when the beef wasn't intended for him. Grow up and give him his flowers while he's still here. ✌🏾🐐
Cole ain’t letting it slide ,I believe my goat will neva apologize if something didn’t happen behind the scenes , he will address it on the fall off ,they just ain’t ready . Like why will the guy with the sharpest pen apologize ?
But he did back out...... And backed out after dropping about 100 bars in 100 songs talking about he wishes someone would bring the smoke to him. Kendrick does; Cole folds.
Broo look i am here for ur reaction cuz im from different country n sometimes I don’t understand certain things as i am learning rap, i get to know through ur breakdown so it enough u made this vdo
I love your breakdowns. I understand the songs so much better with your explanations. Would you/do you ever do other genres of music? There's some great bluegrass/Americana out there that you'd like
15:52 when he said his wht neighbors are “green” He means they’re innocent and oblivious to danger and are carefree ppl.. it’s lingo like oh he green you don’t have anything to worry about. “Red” is someone you don’t want to try
Also For Me.... Schoolboy Q and Kendrick Lamar also have a song "COLLARD GREENS".... like a olive branch as well.. "HERE'S A PLATE OF COLLARD GREENS"🔥🔥🔥😁
A bit off topic, but I didn't know that's how "tourniquet" is pronounced... I always thought the "quet" is a diphthong, but at least with your accent, it's not, the "u" is silent... Both of them are, actually. Good song, I especially liked J. Cole's rhyme writing. Like candy for the ears ❤
[Verse 1: Daylyt] Just pray for me on the third It's a body chopped in thirds, I heard A lot of sheep in the circle And you the goat, the Judas comin' to purge just pray for me on the third FRIDAY SATURDAY AND SUNDAY SUNDAY IS THE 3rd day if you look at in order from friday saturday and sunday.
@@ThumbDiculous thats not what it means it means prey for me on the third so you wouldn't start with monday tuesday and wednesday because wednesday is not the 3rd day that Jesus caming back
Ya know, what irks me is how there's rappers who spit like this and nobody gives them love like J.Cole or Daylyt simply because they're not as known and nobody cares when they're mentioned.
@lilfishnet9265 when he said "because they're not as known" he wasn't talking about Cole or Lyt. He's referring to these rappers he's speaking of, that one's he's saying can spit like Cole and Lyt.

Totally off-topic by my album appeared as this one dropped 🎉
Odeon - Gasoline
He had an extended cinema/TV theme in the flow there.
"Green" - with green screen for CGI or green room for live TV, perhaps even as in "greenlit"
"Played" - or "portrayed"
"Project swings" - filmmakers often refer to their works, especially those in progress or specifically referring to the production work as "projects"
"Fate/fade" - fade being the cinematic technique eg fade in or fade to black
"Foreseen" - "for seeing"
"[in]grain[ed]" - as in film grain
"stories" - for which film and TV is a vehicle
"Raw" - as in raw footage or raw photography
"Raided our" - "Rated-R"
"Shooting" - like shooting film, capturing footage
"Off a Screen" - like in screeplay
"Names across the screen" - as in rolling credits
"Channel thoughts" - or perhaps TV channel
"Cable off" - perhaps as in cable TV
And I'm guessing I missed a few within those several bars
EDIT: I think Cole hops off the theme after "Cable off it seems", but in the next bars "Halloween", "seen"/perhaps 'scene', and "Scream" could be read as him putting in a few more related lines referencing two well-known horror movies.

And the entire verse is slant rhyming with 'A plate of collared greens'

@@cocaine9357 Grippy is like the Disney Starwars, Legend of Korra, Dragonball Evolution movie and every Marvel Movie after Spiderman No Way home.
the thing about his verse is that every bar reyhmes with collard greens
Most actually rhyme with “plate of collard greens”
Also cool because “Blow for Blow” which he released right after this switches the end rhymes constantly nearly every line
Im saying every end rhyme was to set up a “Plate of collard greens” shits beautiful
Cole is a monster
Brooo! I've watched about 5 reactions to this song and none didn't catch some of the bar you did. Crazy! Big up from Jamaica.
Dot fan here, gotta admit - Cole is a cold piece.

soul and kembe was fire
I have been WAITING patiently for your specific reaction. Thank you.
J. Cole is back, fire brazilian sample 🔥🔥🔥
He NEVER left!! 🔥🔥
Also when he says "no moves, minimal, smooth criminals" his furthering his lean bar. If you've ever done lean, you know you gonna have minimal moves, you gonna be sleeping probably "relaxed" meaning your smooth.
Also harbouring and dork relates also to ships
Daylyt and J. Cole, powerful duo!!
This and Pi are NUTS!! 🔥🔥🔥
He meant the caucasian neighbors bars kind of literally, I am from Fayetteville and the area he moved from to 2014 forest hills drive was a “whiter” area
I’m glad Knox isn’t trying to make things funny and seeking for views. Real 💯
The "goat Judas come into purge" line could also be a reference to a Judas goat, which is trained to lead sheep to the slaughter
true, especially how He starts with "I heard" like in hearding (gathering animals into a group and keeping them together) "a lot of sheep in the circle" "and you the goat, the Judas coming to purge" as in the judas goat ( a trained goat that leads other animals to a specific destination, often to slaughter)... not quite sure if Cole be the Judas goat in this case
@ndawona fudge sticks, 🔥.I didn't catch that. Every time you listen to this song, you pick up something new.
"whole gang doing insane ammount of lean" is a quadruple entendre.
The MJ lean.
Drinking Lean
Leaning while doing drive bys (causing screams in halloween)
Lean as people dying from the actions above
4th one is a reach and convenience.. but def can be something.

ifw nolifeshaq a lot but knox is a pro on anything related to music(understanding rhymes, flows, beats, vocals)
It's dangerous once cole starts repeating the end of the other rapper's verse

Would love to see a "blow for blow" reaction!
good news
Man, I love your breakdowns the best in the biz. Keep up the great work. Can wait for your album. Blessings
Congratulations on the headline show!!!
You may be right about Cole being the best feature artist rn. That man in the last 3-4 years has had some of the most ridiculous features

Mostly everything*

Not deep that why
Was waiting for you Knox.

Also Channing Tatum is in coach Carter bro.
He can quite easily be saying shooting like Tatum but off the screen - I.e. not a movie. It’s real etc etc
Waited a whole a week for this....Finallyyyy!!!!🔥
That was an incredible verse from J Cole, the cadence and rhyme scheme is out of this world
That's why I subscribed to you you the goat king
1st wooooh, been waiting , lets goooo!
Waited so long for this

@KnoxHill never disappoints 🔥
day was saying in an interview that he keeps rapping after cole. Id love to hear the rest of this song !!
Excellent breakdown. Best rap song of the year
Been waiting. Knox forehead vein nearly poppin with that tourniquet bar🔥🔥🔥
The internals rhymes from cole are nasty as the punches 👊
You could also, also tie in the Halloween.. and Scream bar with the movie Scream. I didn't even consider the MJ and dangerous parts you mentioned lol
Still the best breakdown channel out there no question!!!
Wow that's a deep dissect bro, appreciate it.
