    Given the recent boon to older songs from reactors that are bringing them to a new audience you would think more bands would want their videos shared.

    I appreciate every minute you put into this. I know that just to make one video takes SO much more than the 10 minute reaction. I know you have to work so hard, juggle requests, comments, worry about copywrite strikes, editing...on and on. I know we see maybe 5% of what you actually do. The comments are soooo overwhelming. Especially frustrating when people complain. My hell! You have 600k people who want your reaction to their song. I think you do a DAMN great job giving us diverse artists and genres. And I always feel so guilty requesting/recommending stuff. (But I know at the same time you want requests.) You are SO generous with your time, especially responding to people. I never take your channels for granted and know it’s only getting more challenging as the channels grow. So thank you thank you thank you for giving us such amazing consistent content. 🙏❤️

    I didn't receive this as a rant. I took it as you going the extra mile to keep us informed and the lines of communication open.
    It's easy to stay positive when everything's positive. But when record companies play the same game they've been playing since the invention of the phonograph, and RUclips enforces it's rules with the roll of the dice, negativity and fatigue can creep in.
    As part of your community, I have no problem letting a video roll to the end and give the thumbs up before moving on. You have a second channel that gives more of the content that drew me here in the first place? I'm there.

We know the majority of the time you are reacting to a song is because it is your first time and some you've heard before but never really paid to close attention until you react to it! You are right though; you cannot please everyone, and it is a waste of your valuable time to do so. Not forgetting about that good idea, you mentioned about challenging those complainers to do what you do and see how difficult it can be!

    Jamel, thanks for explaining the need for us to watch a video all the way through so that you can get more credit. I never realized that; I always thought that once we clicked on a video it counted as a "full" view no matter how long we watched. I'll admit sometimes I'm guilty of not watching a full YT video because you've moved it to The Other Side. Heck, from now on I'll click on extra YT videos and just play them in the background while I work so you can get more credit! You're a great person Jamel, keep the faith!! Much thanks. ❤🙌

    Hate to hear you have to go through any grief when it comes to all the good vibes you spread with your joyous energy. I found your channel by accident and it is such a groove to hear your take on classic songs that give me a chance to rediscover them and listen with fresh feeling. Don't let the negative ones challenge the bright ioyful lifeforce you give everyone with your videos. You are a class act Jamel.

You would think that the record labels would be happy that you supply free advertising of songs from back in the day to new listeners. Very disappointing to say the least. I love what you do. And I know I’m not alone in appreciating your efforts. Thank you, brother 🙏😘

    i sure do appreciate all you do for us, Jamel. every day. i've had a rough couple weeks here recently and it has really messed with my head and my normal schedule -- but i'm still watching your videos, because the way you keep it on the positive side helps lift me up even when i'm in a funk. it definitely bothers me the way your videos get blocked, and i just want to shake my head at the record company lawyers who can't figure out how your reaction videos are good for their artists. it's crazy. what can we do, man? just keep on being you -- you are doing it right. it is a struggle. yes. and we will overcome. the goodness you bring to the world and share with the world is greater than the darkness these record companies breathe out. peace and inspiration be with you, man.

    Try not to get discouraged Jamel, you're the best reactor in my book. It's crazy that a record label or artist would block a video, especially older artist who would benefit from the exposure to new, younger audience , but if they do block a video, it should be blocked by RUclips for ALL channels not just a select few. As for the whiners and haters, they are losers and aren't worth wasting 1 ounce of energy or time on. Keep up the great work brother, you're the best. If you get a chance, check out Rory Gallagher performing Bullfrog Blues on the Old Grey Whistle Test video, I guarantee it will make your day better. ☮️
