FRANK ZAPPA Reaction | "HE'S SO GAY" | "DANGEROUS KITCHEN" | Hip-Hop Head's First Time Hearing

- Hip-Hop beatmaker Tac Robinson gets exposed to iconoclast Frank Zappa through a live recording of "Dangerous Kitchen" and "He's So Gay" from 1984 (Possibly 1983).
Frank Zappa, the masterful guitarist, legendary bandleader and conductor, consummate archivist, unwilling stage-diver, definitive inspirational icon, and protector of free-speech... He released over 60 albums during his lifetime, and over 60 more after he died. Musicians, artist, and those who treasure freedom of speech all owe a great deal to Frank Zappa.
(December 21, 1940 - December 4, 1993)

These are the tracks that got me into Zappa.
The story behind He's So Gay - the character in the show, whom the song describes, is either not gay (just putting it on "for business purposes") or very sexually confused. Which is also part of the reason for all the fetish/BDSM imagery - that was the image being pushed by vocal gay-rights activists in the '70s and early '80s, which filtered int popular culture via The Village People, Soft Cell and suchlike. (It was said in the pre-AIDS era that homosexuals could teach heterosexuals how to liberate themselves by unlinking sexuality from not only reproduction but, to some degree, from copulation itself).
Then again Frank seemed to regard gay sex as something even more intrinsically hilarious than straight sex (which he also described as "silly" - sometimes he alarmed his women by laughing during sex).
Not that the Thing-Fish story is meant to make sense anyway.
Oh, so many great Zappa songs. Here are just a few of the many. Enjoy ! Black Napkins, Inca Roads, Peaches en Regalia, I'm the Slime, Montana, Watermelon in Easter Hay, Cosmik Debris, Yo Mama, Blessed Relief, Apostrophe, Uncle Remus, Filthy Habits
Zappas shit music without sense, is suitable for flushing the toilet 🤣
Somebody out there in that audience knows what we are doing, and that person is getting off on it beyond his/her wildest comprehension.
"Frank Zappa"
come on down and get some onya!
...and once ya get some on ya... you're never gettin' it off‼

@@TheFreakinReaction love it!!!
I would rather listen to Talented street musicians than shit boring clown zappa , hahahaha
How many fools listen to shit zappa music? Hahahaha
He mixed a few styles of music together and is called a genius? Hahahaha thanks for the laugh, shit ugly clown zappa was garbage,hahahaha
If you want to listen to something more serious with a slight hip-hop vibe, I recommend the album "Hot Rats
I agree that would be a great choice for Tac to give a listen to. It's such a classic album (that should be in everyone's collection), and likely more in tune with Tac's personal musical taste. -Dr. Smith
He actually used it in a (weeeiird) musical-of-sorts called Thing-Fish, that never got staged, because ... yeah, you can pretty much guess why. 😊
Sadly (today more than ever), smaller minds could never comprehend the concept (or value) of satire. 🙊 Society has always demanded that the masses conform to whatever the person with the loudest voice has decreed as being a vulgarity. 🤐 Getting investors for a Thing-Fish Broadway show I'm sure would have been very difficult (as investors would know that a good return on their money was unlikely). Frank wanted to make art, but investors tend to care more about making money than art... so sadly, it never happened😞 -Dr. Smith
You Are What You Is would be another good Zappa reaction. Now that I think about it this could be the first meeting of Rap and Metal (ish)
Actually the specific song I was thinking about is Dumb All Over. Highly recommended.
@@TheFreakinReaction Zappa was also not very interested in having the audience enjoy the show as much as he seemed to in the 70s. It would have been a challenging thing to watch, and maybe not so much fun, and like you said: probably no return on the investment. I would have been interesting, but Frank isn't so much a story guy as a musician.
Street musicians sound much better than shit, ugly, boring clown zappa
Frank says: cereal first, milk second.
I always pictured Frank as a "pour the milk directly into the box" kinda guy. -Dr.Smith
@@TheFreakinReaction 😂😂😂
Zappas shit music without sense, is suitable for flushing the toilet 😂😂
lol... uh...yeah... most reacters would avoid a song with the title HE'S SO GAY like the plague... so...respect for having balls, and a sense of humor.
Frank Zappa wasn't a homophobe!
He was worse
@@marlon-jl4geThat's just a projection sir....I'm sure you are a heap of violent trash living a meaningless live 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂. Worse than Marlon you mean!
@@garryfitzgerald6233 he was a boring clown and an ignorant, his music too
@@marlon-jl4ge 🤣 You are just projecting...what you really mean is you are a boring clown with little talent living a meaningless ugly life! 🤣
@@marlon-jl4ge in what way?
NOT Lex Luger, but an incredible simulation
6:40 “Sounded almost like a piece to a musical”…well well WELL!!!
He got that one right! “He’s So Gay” is from Zappa’s theatre show/musical “Thing Fish”!
Well spotted.
Truly one of the most bizarre conceptual performance pieces ever conceived, though undoubtedly quite a tough pitch to secure funding for. As far as rock operas go, I'd take anything Zappa over titles actually produced like Rocky Horror or Tommy any day of the week.
