What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you like the song in the intro support the channel & independent music by grabbing your signed copy of my new album ‘Buttery Effect’ now 🤟 www.knoxhillmusic.com
Check out Ronnie Radkes "Watch Me" EP. He made it many years ago. Him actually rapping. React to Never The Same or Who Can Stop Us Now ft. Deuce and B.Lay
Man, anybody could make a reaction video. Lots of people could make an entertaining reaction video. But YOU, sir... there is a reason you are king of the reaction game. You hear every word and every sound in the mix, you comprehend what an artist is getting at every time, and you make it make sense, FAR beyond what most of us can catch from a track like this on first listen. Keep it up, you're a beast.
Highest level of compliment right here. Thank you for those words and for your support. I remember starting these vids and the ridicule for all the pausing and breaking down…I still get it. But then I see comments like this and I see how far we’ve come, and the road continues. Thanks for being here for the journey 🤟
Signed, Knox is a beast. Btw i think the guy hit by the rocks is Sebastian Bach, a few seconds later a Laptop drops to the ground which could be a reference to their beef they had recently. And could it be that the demon figure represents the therapist of popular monster?
@@KnoxHill nah man people bringing the negativity of you pausing don't grasp why your reactions are #1. Love the breakdowns of all his songs. Ronnie even said he loves that you get his underlying themes
@@wishtheyunderstoodme fast rapping is considered an alternative style of rap because pop artists and og rappers don’t rap fast at all also the fact that it’s not hip hop makes it an alternative style of rap, because rap is originally a vocal style only in hip hop, so rap in any song that’s not hip hop is alternative rap. For example, tech n9ne, busta rhymes, hopsin, token etc. are all alternative rappers, the same as Ronnie and falling in reverse only do alternative rap because the music they make is not at all hip hop
I was done dirty when I first searched for reactions. Your breakdown has allowed me to appreciate the song even more. Everyone else is just giving shock-factor reactions, you're analyzing the lyrics step-by-step, giving feedback and references, this is what a reaction should be!
@@dhockedy1273 they couldn't be any further apart in rap styles and Tom is riddled with words that all end in phobic, would end Ronnies career as someone who borders on the fence of what should and shouldn't be said (i mean Ronnie does this in a good way) - used to be a huge fan of Tom since his very early days but the bigger he got the more his views came out, still listen to his older stuff but thats it
@@wishtheyunderstoodme I'm not a troll. I've been listening to Falling in Reverse for over a decade - but this is just trendy rap-rock from a band who's biggest song is doing literally this but better (Popular Monster). This sound way more like Tom MacDonald (with some Eminem and Drake influence) than it does Falling in Reverse - and Tom MacDonald is fucking trash too. But I'm going to go out on a limb and say you probably like Tommy too lol
@@Helldog6 I am also a fan since the punk rock days, but this is top tear, this song is one of there best if not there best. Theres so much time and effort put into it. Secret messages and exposing the gate keepers of the industry who legit kill people to keep there position
@@wishtheyunderstoodme Sure, lyrically the meaning is fine (although, I knew from the beginning we'd have a 'everyone is so sensitive nowadays' line and sure enough...). Other then that, the instrumental sounds like every "epic" NF song - in fact the entire beginning sounds exactly like Returns. Then he break through the ground and has the "I got Enemies" which straight from Drake's "Energy" from the sound design to the flow. He then sounds exactly like Tech N9ne and (nowdays anyway) Dax with the multilayered voice on a word every other line, and then right after that with the "very fast" part where he's across the desk from the Devil - sounds like it was taken directly from Godzilla by Eminem. The most unique part about it was the end, but the actual rap section was just played out.
I can't remember the last time I heard a track like this. The way this has been composed and delivered from my point of view is similar to the affect that Queen did with Bohemian Rhapsody for the music world. This track is going to be a big hit for a long time. Well done FIR!
So glad someone said this! I feel like right between the genre switch there’s a bit of homage paid to Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody in particular with the short operatic bit thrown in there! There’s so many reasons Ronnie is one of my favorite artists but it boils down to the fact that this man is overflowing with talent. Love it!
In my opinion, the reason why the genre change works so well and flows seamlessly while also making you surprised is because Ronnie’s flow and the drums switch places. If you think about it, in the rap section, the drums have a pretty slow rhythm that kept the pace pretty steady, all while Ronnie is just goin nuts. Then, they switch so the drums are going fast as fuck while he’s keeping the tempo. Big brain move right there. Love these guys.
I know that you will likely never see this comment, but as somebody who's been battling depression I really appreciate your understanding of this song and how it describes what I go through every day. I was ready to end it, but it wasn't this song but your understanding of it that pulled me back. Thank you.
Your ear, mental comprehension hearing every aspects of the music with the neuro-elite of following every word….. WOW!!! Glad I found your site!! RESPECT!!!
its crazy because you know for a fact that while ronnie was writing this song, he 100% was imagining you and what youre reaction was going to be. Youre the guy who analyzes his flow the best and he knows that. Think about that bro thats wild!
Best breakdown and reaction yet. Great job man. Ronnie's a unique beast who's got some demons. Unlike almost everyone else, he's not afraid to acknowledge it.
Wow... Just wow! Ronnie and the band is killing it for sure but you sir are keeping up with their magic like a superstar! Without lying I have seen at least 50 reactions to this video but no one is even close to the breakdown and analysis of what you just did! I am 100% metalhead and a fan of falling in reverse so I am blown away of Ronnies rap skills and even more impressed of your skills of how you hear all his bars and his intentions behind these bars. You have just earned yourself a new subscriber! awesome reaction man! Thank you! 🤘🖤💪
Oh Ronnie!! I'm obsessed with whatever he comes out with. Listened to this 38 minutes after it was released. Fell in LOVE! You are the only reactor I will watch when it comes to FIR. I can't stand that others don't go as in depth to the meanings as you do. Give a shout out to the band behind Ronnie! They have to be great to put out this caliber of music!
My prediction is you will pass everyone to become the King of reactions and breakdowns. You see and hear what others can't. Thank you for putting all the time and effort into these videos, plus your own music career.
Honestly you and Stevie Knight are the only two reaction channels i wait for when shit like this drops . Both of you do an amazing job listening and breaking down the metaphors and secret meanings behind a lot of lyrics and imagery ESPECIALLY in FIR videos
I watch a lot of reactions on songs that I love but your attention to detail with the visuals, production, lyrics and metaphors is just insane. You point out all the small details that most notice only after watching a couple of times or after someone points it out and still explain it so well. Thats amazing talent in itself. Love your channel for this! Also I dont know why people still keep coming after Ronnie when they should know by now he's just gonna beat them at it while trolling tf out of them with class at the same time 😆
Dude as soon as I heard this song I was like "Man Knox is gonna love this" 9:42 That was my same face when I heard Ronnie bringing in the speed rap I swear I wasn't ready for it lol I love how you said Ronnie sets the tone but I swear He set it and kept elevating it more and more until finally exploding to make the world burn... This song was straight fire... Thanks for reacting to it Knox! 🔥 I peed my pants when I heard this song too 😂
The attention to detail is incredible! I've had this song on repeat for 3 days now and I never noticed the eerie scream when he pushes the button at the start. You. Are. Awesome! Liked and subbed 100%
Knox, you are by far the most complete reaction channel as far as breaking down the song. Your insights into the songs are unparalleled. I couldn't wait for you to see this one just to hear your thoughts on it and you definitely did an amazing analysis. Keep it up. PS, the "rocker" is a nod to Sebastian Bach who he had an online feud with regarding laptops at concerts (hence the laptop falling and hitting him lmao)
Totally agree. Knox does an amazing job breaking songs down/analyzing. This song just has so many genre's mixed in, transitions are smooth, mindblown... That whole "laptop" thing, lost respect for Sebastian Bach, grew up listening to Skid Row....
"I just peed my pants a little bit.....I just peed my pants alot" 😂 as always well done Knox 👏 very much appreciate your break downs and reactions!! Keep up the great work sir 😎🔥
As soon as I saw the original release I instantly started looking for this breakdown reaction. Glad it didn't come too far after the release. Keep up the great reviews
Bro your reactions are so sick. You’re one of the only reactors that I actually watch a 20-25 minute video from start to finish cause when you break things down you keep it interesting and know what you’re talking about. Keep it up man, love the channel🔥
Man I woke up this morning and saw this song, I’ve never listened to these guys ever before!! And WOW!!! My mind was blown! This is absolutely amazing , I have to check out this bands other stuff!
I feel like this song is kinda like Ronnie’s resume where he lays all his cards down on the table and showcases just how many styles and genres he’s capable of not only pulling off but his absolute mastery of them! Not only do you have the rap skills but he changes sub-genres from MGK and Tech N9ne, to Drake, to Eminem Godzilla style, and then hits you with just a snippet of Queen-style vocal layering in transition to old school FiR and ETF punk/post hardcore, before breaking it down into classic djent, while finishing things off with brutal screams/metal. I mean, DAMN! This song is 100% just Ronnie showing off from start to finish (while also mixing in some humorous beef reincarnation (Sebastian Bach getting laptops dumped on his head lol)! As a pure song to enjoy simply listening to, this track is maybe not my favorite despite how cohesive and seamless all the mashups are pulled off, but as a demonstration of his unparalleled diversity of styles and vocal/lyrical range this whole thing is just next, NEXT level!
You brought up a lot of amazing points about things going on in the track, from the background to the mix to the bars. I really enjoyed everything you had to say AND the reaction itself. Keep it up!
Ronnie is an incredible talent. Aside from the message of the song, it felt like the other purpose was to show he can rap as good as the best AND rock better than the best.
@@henrytawnn8694 losing my mind, losing my life, and drugs are a part of a trilogy of songs. Popular Monster was a sort of sequel and is absolutely banging. Then anything after that. I am not a vampire, drug in me is you are some of their older songs that are really good too (more pop-punk though) and they did reimagined versions of them styled more dramatically. There are some other ones too that are pretty solid. Name a genre and they have probably done really well in some way.
@@warzoneguy6089 I had no idea, but I just finished listening to Losing My Life. Thanks for the recommendations. I might just have to binge albums. Everything is incredible.
Let me just say just in case no one addressed it. The rocker that got pelted was Sebastian Bach. It was over a twitter war that started over falling in reverse cancelling a show because their laptops couldn’t work so back tracks etc wouldn’t work so they cancelled. Through another person in the industry it got back to Sebastian who had a little feud with him, most likely for headlines so his name was already in the rockisphere thus making it better to drop the song. Pretty funny adding that to the music video having laptops falling on Sebastian . ⭐️ the more you know.
You wasted no time here, man, this track is hard af!! Your breakdown made me appreciate it even more, as always. And yah, totally pissed myself when the metal dropped 🤟
I've seen many of your videos and I love how you take everything in and break it down. You notice things that most people don't. It's a learning experience. People like you are much needed. Thanks for what you do bro 🤘
Ronnie is so talented it’s actually insane.. There is nothing this man can’t do 🖤 Ughhh I love when he drops a new track, and love seeing your breakdown of it !!
"Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist" -Pablo Picasso I have never seen genre shifts mid-song before. Love when artists just decide to do something insane instead of just doing what everyone else is doing
You broke this down sooo incredibly well. I was having a hard time putting it all together but you just perfectly explained everything that was confusing me. Freaking awesome!
There was so much in that video. My brain can't wrap around it... first the lyrics, then the imagery, back to the lyrics, and to the imagery again, then to vocal skills like screams, growls, and just straight up metal followed again by some inSANE imagery which culminates in everything burning to the ground... both visually and lyrically. I... can't... even.
Knox, you are off the charts on reactions. I so look forward to your reactions and try to understand the depths musicians are taking to get to the next level. Ronnie did it in this video, fucking epic. Thank you!
This is supposed to be Sebastian Bach (ex-Skid Row) who had Twitter beef with Ronnie on Twitter over Ronnie's need of his laptops with the backing tracks for their live performance. He took a real boomer stance on it and Ronnie roasted him in his usual entraining savage way. The Sebastian double in the video is being hit by a laptop😂I love that you always take the time to really dig into the lyrics. This track is 🔥🔥🔥 Greetings from Germany
@@whatthefuck1852 yes of course. I corrected it 😅 This must have been a weird autocorrect from my brain, because I write Slipknot way more than Skidrow. Thanks for letting me know!
That rapping and song is the bomb and dope. This first-time hearing, Ronnie and I'm totally impressed and a fan of his style. I like to hear people who are simply the best at what they do. This is a masterpiece of a song that I have ever heard. Thank you for the great reaction too.
The amount of depth that you give with your reactions is amazing. You're my favorite reactor amongst many others as well but you will always be the one I look forward to seeing if you react to something that comes out that is super epic. You learn so much from the break down. Keep at it!
He begins showing off his rap skills fast and hard like he's angry, but still holding that anger back and that anger builds up and up and up and then at the fast part with the demon and the typewriter (The calm before the storm) he imploded went insanely fast like he's going insane and then the mental kicks in (the storm) and then he just went demonic on everyone! I fking loved it! He. Can. Rap. and the metal was awesome! I don't have that many metal songs in my playlist, but this is 100% going in!
Man I absolutely love your reactions. The way you pick it all apart is magical perfect representation of a musician taking it all apart and putting it back together. But man that I peed my pants line killed me ha ha
Man, a music video like this needed a reaction video like yours. "He didn't drop the bomb, he's the bomb..." You're a guy with a vision. And you interpret the lyrics and the references, woww, keep it up dude and congrats.
Now that you’ve seen Ronnie’s insane rapping ability, nows a good time to dive into his rap mixtape called WATCH ME. I recommend the song “ Who Can Stop Us”
Don't ever let someone you stop to often. That's what I'm here for, you're analysis and the little things you catch. I can watch the video on my own if I don't want to pause!
I really enjoy your videos. I am a major metal head, seeing someone enjoy my favorite bands and songs makes me happy. I really appreciate that you always have respect when listening to music!
What a freaking amazing roller-coaster ride of a song!! 🤘🎶🖤❤🔥☠ love the digs at the laptop, Sebastián Bach thing too!! Definite Homelander crazy vibes...gave me chills!!!!
*pause* "I just peed my pants a little bit." *play* *pause* "I just peed my pants alot." Me too! This song was insane! I started watching your reactions, you are definitely the best reaction break down channel out there! I started doing reactions because of you. Hugely inspired by how you break down the lyrics. Keep it up man!
Still gotta listen to Ronnie's old mixtape called the Watch Me EP. He can really rap his ass off. Never The Same, Stupid Boy, Devil, Who Can Stop Us...he snapped on all of them
Thank you so much for being one of the best lyric breakdown artist ever. Some of his fast pace raps were hard to decipher but you did it in one go. Thank you for everything you do for all of us and keep being you!
Basically every reaction channel I see people tell them they pause too much or talk too much - please ignore those people 🤣 For real the fact you are able to hear so many different levels of sound on a first listen is insane to me. Being able to pick apart not only the words and message, but also the music composition and mix of everything at such a rapid pace must be the result of the work you've put into your own music and education. Love the breakdowns man.
You're the only reactor that I ENJOY the constant stopping and rewinding of the video. You break it down in so many facets AND you educate while doing it. Phenomenal video today, sir! And the guy getting pelted by laptops is Sebastian Bach. They had a feud back in October.
Ive heard this song 100x yet watching your video has taught me extra especially about rap tempo and thats awesome! I love your shock to everything and being able to appreciate each genre!
Ive gotta say bro you’re incredible, your break downs of the videos are phenomenal; i cant catch any of the deeper meanings in these kinds of videos no matter how hard i try so you explaining all the nuances in music videos is super helpful thanks man
I feel like the next evolution of music is "permanent transitions". Lots of bands have combined styles, or had one style verse, with one style chorus. But FIR are doing something new where a song starts out totally different than how it ends. It's a trip
I remember when you had like 20k subs can’t believe you’re close to a Million subs.Always love hearing the break downs of all the songs. Just absolute good tier with catching words (etc) that I can barely hear till you catch it and I go back and hear it lol. Everything about the content. Love it man. Keep up the awesome work and stay safe.
absolute banger! That first verse and you saying 'are we making movies or music videos' I cant help hear NF style in this, hopsin too on the break, he's taking these darker styles and delivery of rap, absolutely nailing them and bringing them to metal in such a satisfying and refreshing way. this was fireeeee! love your reactions!
I’ve watch several reactions to this song. You were the first one that had recognized the buzz light year reference. As well as broke down the song in the way you did. Great job. Great video. Oh and the “I think I just peed my self a little bit” had me rolling. Cause every reaction has had a similar feeling to that transition. 👍
13:00 he is making fun of the singer of skid row who judged them harshly when they had to cancel a show due to equipment being sent to the wrong place (mainly their laptops that had all the backing tracks etc.) which started a feud between the singers
This is the first video I have watched of yours, I was already PLANNING to subscribe but as soon as you said "Violence is fun"....I smashed SUBSCRIBE right then and there. haha felt like listening to a song with a friend. Thanks I will contiue on, May the force be with you
Actually don't know who Tom Macdonald is, but will check him out now. What I kinda wanna see is a collab from Electric Callboy and Ronnie. Because they both blend Genres and make their own kind of music. That could become just a whole genre-ception (but kinda unrealistic to happen cause the guys from Electric Callboy are from Germany :/ )
Just watched 5 reactions on a row, never seen you before but you get it my friend. Song blew me away, and you are on point with your review. You got a new follower today.
What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you like the song in the intro support the channel & independent music by grabbing your signed copy of my new album ‘Buttery Effect’ now 🤟 www.knoxhillmusic.com
JINJER PLEASE!! Wallflower or Vortex or literally any other track from them. They’re one of the rare artists that doesn’t miss for me. 🖤🖤
Hope you react to the band dayseeker next they are amazing you can start with sleep talk, burial plot, already numb, crooked soul and drunk
Check out Ronnie Radkes "Watch Me" EP. He made it many years ago. Him actually rapping. React to Never The Same or Who Can Stop Us Now ft. Deuce and B.Lay

Totally agree. Knox does an amazing job breaking songs down/analyzing. This song just has so many genre's mixed in, transitions are smooth, mindblown... That whole "laptop" thing, lost respect for Sebastian Bach, grew up listening to Skid Row....
Best reaction I've seen AND I'm major impressed by your ability to capture the lyrics, whether in flow or shouting. Kudos, man.
"I just peed my pants a little bit.....I just peed my pants alot" 😂 as always well done Knox 👏 very much appreciate your break downs and reactions!! Keep up the great work sir 😎🔥
Knox, thank you for taking your time and energy to share this with everyone. I appreciate you man 😊
As soon as I saw the original release I instantly started looking for this breakdown reaction. Glad it didn't come too far after the release. Keep up the great reviews
Bro your reactions are so sick. You’re one of the only reactors that I actually watch a 20-25 minute video from start to finish cause when you break things down you keep it interesting and know what you’re talking about. Keep it up man, love the channel🔥
Man I woke up this morning and saw this song, I’ve never listened to these guys ever before!! And WOW!!! My mind was blown! This is absolutely amazing , I have to check out this bands other stuff!
Here here I second that
Oh boy you're about to dive down a rabbit hole 😂
F me.
You have such an amazing ear when it comes to music.
TALENT right here..!!
Thanks for another awesome one Mr Knox ✨✨
Let's go Knox! I was waiting for your reaction. I loved it! I am very happy that Ronnie showed off more of his rap skills in this one.
The little "dulled out scream" sound effect you heard when ronnie hit the button was the sound the rear door makes when opening in those planes.
I feel like this song is kinda like Ronnie’s resume where he lays all his cards down on the table and showcases just how many styles and genres he’s capable of not only pulling off but his absolute mastery of them! Not only do you have the rap skills but he changes sub-genres from MGK and Tech N9ne, to Drake, to Eminem Godzilla style, and then hits you with just a snippet of Queen-style vocal layering in transition to old school FiR and ETF punk/post hardcore, before breaking it down into classic djent, while finishing things off with brutal screams/metal. I mean, DAMN! This song is 100% just Ronnie showing off from start to finish (while also mixing in some humorous beef reincarnation (Sebastian Bach getting laptops dumped on his head lol)! As a pure song to enjoy simply listening to, this track is maybe not my favorite despite how cohesive and seamless all the mashups are pulled off, but as a demonstration of his unparalleled diversity of styles and vocal/lyrical range this whole thing is just next, NEXT level!
You brought up a lot of amazing points about things going on in the track, from the background to the mix to the bars. I really enjoyed everything you had to say AND the reaction itself. Keep it up!
Ronnie is an incredible talent. Aside from the message of the song, it felt like the other purpose was to show he can rap as good as the best AND rock better than the best.
I've never even heard of Ronnie or Falling In Reverse, but I definitely need to check out a lot more.
Any good song/album recommendations?
@@henrytawnn8694 losing my mind, losing my life, and drugs are a part of a trilogy of songs. Popular Monster was a sort of sequel and is absolutely banging. Then anything after that. I am not a vampire, drug in me is you are some of their older songs that are really good too (more pop-punk though) and they did reimagined versions of them styled more dramatically. There are some other ones too that are pretty solid.
Name a genre and they have probably done really well in some way.
@@warzoneguy6089 I had no idea, but I just finished listening to Losing My Life.
Thanks for the recommendations. I might just have to binge albums. Everything is incredible.
@@henrytawnn8694 let me know what you think!
Let me just say just in case no one addressed it. The rocker that got pelted was Sebastian Bach. It was over a twitter war that started over falling in reverse cancelling a show because their laptops couldn’t work so back tracks etc wouldn’t work so they cancelled. Through another person in the industry it got back to Sebastian who had a little feud with him, most likely for headlines so his name was already in the rockisphere thus making it better to drop the song. Pretty funny adding that to the music video having laptops falling on Sebastian . ⭐️ the more you know.
You wasted no time here, man, this track is hard af!! Your breakdown made me appreciate it even more, as always. And yah, totally pissed myself when the metal dropped 🤟
I've seen many of your videos and I love how you take everything in and break it down. You notice things that most people don't. It's a learning experience. People like you are much needed. Thanks for what you do bro 🤘
Ronnie is so talented it’s actually insane.. There is nothing this man can’t do 🖤 Ughhh I love when he drops a new track, and love seeing your breakdown of it !!
loved your video bro, watched a whole bunch of reactions and yours is my favorite nobody else appreciates it like you
GOD I hope Ronnie reacts to this one great reaction Knox
"Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist" -Pablo Picasso
I have never seen genre shifts mid-song before. Love when artists just decide to do something insane instead of just doing what everyone else is doing
The transition from the rap god stuff to rock is my absolute favorite its so good.
You broke this down sooo incredibly well. I was having a hard time putting it all together but you just perfectly explained everything that was confusing me. Freaking awesome!
There was so much in that video. My brain can't wrap around it... first the lyrics, then the imagery, back to the lyrics, and to the imagery again, then to vocal skills like screams, growls, and just straight up metal followed again by some inSANE imagery which culminates in everything burning to the ground... both visually and lyrically. I... can't... even.
Knox, you are off the charts on reactions. I so look forward to your reactions and try to understand the depths musicians are taking to get to the next level. Ronnie did it in this video, fucking epic. Thank you!
This is supposed to be Sebastian Bach (ex-Skid Row) who had Twitter beef with Ronnie on Twitter over Ronnie's need of his laptops with the backing tracks for their live performance. He took a real boomer stance on it and Ronnie roasted him in his usual entraining savage way. The Sebastian double in the video is being hit by a laptop😂I love that you always take the time to really dig into the lyrics.
This track is 🔥🔥🔥
Greetings from Germany
you mean ex-SkidRow? I'm pretty sure Slipknot aint glam rock
@@whatthefuck1852 yes of course. I corrected it 😅 This must have been a weird autocorrect from my brain, because I write Slipknot way more than Skidrow. Thanks for letting me know!
Yours was the reaction I was waiting for! Well done!
Waiting for this, definitely going to appreciate everything Ronnie did
That rapping and song is the bomb and dope. This first-time hearing, Ronnie and I'm totally impressed and a fan of his style. I like to hear people who are simply the best at what they do. This is a masterpiece of a song that I have ever heard. Thank you for the great reaction too.
The amount of depth that you give with your reactions is amazing. You're my favorite reactor amongst many others as well but you will always be the one I look forward to seeing if you react to something that comes out that is super epic. You learn so much from the break down. Keep at it!
He begins showing off his rap skills fast and hard like he's angry, but still holding that anger back and that anger builds up and up and up and then at the fast part with the demon and the typewriter (The calm before the storm) he imploded went insanely fast like he's going insane and then the mental kicks in (the storm) and then he just went demonic on everyone! I fking loved it! He. Can. Rap. and the metal was awesome! I don't have that many metal songs in my playlist, but this is 100% going in!
Man I absolutely love your reactions. The way you pick it all apart is magical perfect representation of a musician taking it all apart and putting it back together. But man that I peed my pants line killed me ha ha
Man, a music video like this needed a reaction video like yours. "He didn't drop the bomb, he's the bomb..." You're a guy with a vision. And you interpret the lyrics and the references, woww, keep it up dude and congrats.
Maaaaaaaaaan the second this song came out yesterday, I was waiting for just the right person to react to it. Can't wait to see this! 🔥
Man, now I like this song even more. Great react
Now that you’ve seen Ronnie’s insane rapping ability, nows a good time to dive into his rap mixtape called WATCH ME. I recommend the song “ Who Can Stop Us”
Finally someone else!! Ive been trying to get him to check this for a long while now.
Facts nobody talks about it
Don't ever let someone you stop to often. That's what I'm here for, you're analysis and the little things you catch. I can watch the video on my own if I don't want to pause!
Been waiting for this. Radke is unbelievably talented and he's still getting better. Great reaction too
I really enjoy your videos. I am a major metal head, seeing someone enjoy my favorite bands and songs makes me happy. I really appreciate that you always have respect when listening to music!
I've never clicked faster😂
Same I’m re watching it rn
Same 😂
Same Kat, same! Hope you and the kids are more than well!
Same 😂
Same 😂
When one of my favorite artists releases a song I always look forward to you breaking it down
What a freaking amazing roller-coaster ride of a song!! 🤘🎶🖤❤🔥☠ love the digs at the laptop, Sebastián Bach thing too!! Definite Homelander crazy vibes...gave me chills!!!!
*pause*
"I just peed my pants a little bit."
*play*
*pause*
"I just peed my pants alot."
Me too! This song was insane! I started watching your reactions, you are definitely the best reaction break down channel out there! I started doing reactions because of you. Hugely inspired by how you break down the lyrics. Keep it up man!
Still gotta listen to Ronnie's old mixtape called the Watch Me EP. He can really rap his ass off. Never The Same, Stupid Boy, Devil, Who Can Stop Us...he snapped on all of them
Finally others!!! Thank you
I like the song he did with Deuce, I think it was on that EP
@DK-Design yes it was called Who Can Stop Us. Also with B. Lay. Idk if he chopped faster in WCSU or WTWB. Im thinking WCSU
I like all the movie/ TV show references, the end where he pulled a homelander and cut everyone in half was dope
Thank you so much for being one of the best lyric breakdown artist ever. Some of his fast pace raps were hard to decipher but you did it in one go. Thank you for everything you do for all of us and keep being you!
Basically every reaction channel I see people tell them they pause too much or talk too much - please ignore those people 🤣
For real the fact you are able to hear so many different levels of sound on a first listen is insane to me. Being able to pick apart not only the words and message, but also the music composition and mix of everything at such a rapid pace must be the result of the work you've put into your own music and education. Love the breakdowns man.
You're the only reactor that I ENJOY the constant stopping and rewinding of the video. You break it down in so many facets AND you educate while doing it. Phenomenal video today, sir! And the guy getting pelted by laptops is Sebastian Bach. They had a feud back in October.
Ive heard this song 100x yet watching your video has taught me extra especially about rap tempo and thats awesome! I love your shock to everything and being able to appreciate each genre!
I got the impression this story isn't over yet. There's probably a pt 2 coming
His screams and growls have really improved, I was so shook by it! I fking love ronnie so much.
Ive gotta say bro you’re incredible, your break downs of the videos are phenomenal; i cant catch any of the deeper meanings in these kinds of videos no matter how hard i try so you explaining all the nuances in music videos is super helpful thanks man
I feel like the next evolution of music is "permanent transitions". Lots of bands have combined styles, or had one style verse, with one style chorus. But FIR are doing something new where a song starts out totally different than how it ends. It's a trip
Great reaction and breakdown of lyrics and music. Really enjoyed it!
I never knew Ronnie could rap this good 🤯🤯
I remember when you had like 20k subs can’t believe you’re close to a Million subs.Always love hearing the break downs of all the songs. Just absolute good tier with catching words (etc) that I can barely hear till you catch it and I go back and hear it lol. Everything about the content. Love it man. Keep up the awesome work and stay safe.
Ronnie took us all on a lyrical and cinematic adventure.
i like how the music video is just a sequence of cool things happening with no explanation or context
absolute banger! That first verse and you saying 'are we making movies or music videos' I cant help hear NF style in this, hopsin too on the break, he's taking these darker styles and delivery of rap, absolutely nailing them and bringing them to metal in such a satisfying and refreshing way. this was fireeeee! love your reactions!
Ronnie never disappoints! This was a masterpiece!
I’ve watch several reactions to this song. You were the first one that had recognized the buzz light year reference. As well as broke down the song in the way you did. Great job. Great video. Oh and the “I think I just peed my self a little bit” had me rolling. Cause every reaction has had a similar feeling to that transition. 👍
That "i just peed my pants" 😂😂
The best review!! You really understand the lyrics and the video, Ronnie is the actual bomb
13:00 he is making fun of the singer of skid row who judged them harshly when they had to cancel a show due to equipment being sent to the wrong place (mainly their laptops that had all the backing tracks etc.) which started a feud between the singers
I had to sub. Your breakdowns of these lyrics and beats and stuff. Top notch
This gives me strong NF Vibes rap wise, with the classic Falling in Reverse metal. So awesome.
So glad you reacted to this, my bf wanted me to go down falling in reverse's rabbit 🐰 hole, much love and appreciation from Kentucky ❤️🙏❤️
“What in the Hitler is happening right now”
Please be careful with this comment
This is the first video I have watched of yours, I was already PLANNING to subscribe but as soon as you said "Violence is fun"....I smashed SUBSCRIBE right then and there. haha felt like listening to a song with a friend.
Thanks I will contiue on, May the force be with you
I love how Ronnie can completely change genre's and how good he is at rapping
I love watching some dope ass reactions. I definitely appreciate when people love different genres, it makes my day. You rock bro
Would love for Ronnie and Tom Macdonald to do a track together
Actually don't know who Tom Macdonald is, but will check him out now.
What I kinda wanna see is a collab from Electric Callboy and Ronnie. Because they both blend Genres and make their own kind of music. That could become just a whole genre-ception
(but kinda unrealistic to happen cause the guys from Electric Callboy are from Germany :/ )
@@HellzReverend no cause it's not. And if anything Tom would be a Ronnie ripoff being as Ronnie has been going for nearly 20 years.
Thank you for reacting to this one and breaking it down with that knox hill skill!! Hell yeah!!
Just watched 5 reactions on a row, never seen you before but you get it my friend. Song blew me away, and you are on point with your review. You got a new follower today.
love watching Knox react to music videos like this keep it up brother!
