He influenced Michael Jackson
if this is anyone's first introduction to kendrick i feel like it's a very first weird listen. the lyrics are very intentional especially when put into context of the album DAMN.
So many oldheads here that immediately hear the trap beat and put Kendrick on their blacklist.
I'd love to see your reaction to a song like "Wesley's Theory" by Kendrick Lamar. I mean, he has so many great tracks. Humble was a hit, but it isn't even in my top 25 Kendrick tracks. "United in Grief" would be another interesting one.
"U" would be one of the most interesting from a vocal perspective, since he conveys so much. "Maad City" and "Fear" are up there too for that. "Mother I Sober" is featuring Beth Gibbons, who is of course amazing, and I think vocally Kendrick matches her vulnerability, and lyrically takes it to another level.
Humble is fine but if I had one track to show someone how unbelievable of an artist Kendrick is, this would be one of my last picks.
when kendrick said "be humble, b**** sit down", he ain’t necessarily referring to women, he is talking to various individuals, including his peers in the music industry, people in positions of power, and possibly himself, urging them to remain humble despite their success or status.
Some people on this comment section have probably never heard any rap and/or hip hop before or doesn't understand it and it shows. Great reaction though 👍🏾
Some people are just better at processing music than others. That's a scientific fact. I studied theory and composition as my major in university.
Take metal music, for example. To most people it's angry or scary and chaotic and comes off as dissonant noise. Dadaist composers in the early 20th century faced the same issue.
It's not that the music these artists produce is straight trash. It's actually, from a standpoint of tonality, diversity and complexity of chord structure and development, so on, incredibly brilliant music. Genius level artistry.
It's just that most people are just god awful at understanding and processing music. No cap. They just have unsophisticated ears and don't have the right amount of density in a small group of neural folds to understand what they're hearing.
Same issue applies here. Personally, this is one of Kendrick's two best pieces of work. It's subtly brilliant.
People just dumb af and sorry, that's all.
To keep it 1000 though, a lot of the trap club mumble mainstream rap/hip hop is steamy summer trash. But brilliant music is brilliant no matter the genre. Just sayin
@dutchplanderlinde8883 yeah true. You have to really look around to find actual good rap music that you can easily understand and enjoy it. Everyone does have their own taste in music tho
@dutchplanderlinde8883 the one rapper I recommend to people that wants to listen to good rap music is an artist called J. Cole. His music is stuff you can listen and vibe with no matter what mood you're in, and the one album I recommend to listen from him is called The Off-Season.
@joanalejo1331 I've heard a few of his tracks on the 2k soundtracks haha. Haven't heard a ton of his tracks but I dig the ones I have.
Wow I didn't think the for a minute that this channel's audience would be so close-minded
More of Kendrick Lamar please, but I highly suggest some tracks from to pimp a butterfly. "Westley's theory", "for free" and "These walls" are the tracks I imagine you'd find interesting.
Kendrick is part of what got me started to really deep dive back into rap. Lots of crazy stuff out there, old and new. Love to see you react to Run the Jewels.
Love to see new people get into the genre man!! Check out del tron “3030” and “mastermind” . Then check out hyroglyphics “93 til”, then check out Jedi mind tricks “violence by design” the entire album. Start from there and you’ll see some real hip hop, trust me
Interesting Kendrick Lamar songs to check out as well - Maad city, Alright and King Kunta.
Swimming Pools is about alcohol addiction.
Bruh mad city is one of the biggest bangers ever
King kunta
I’d love to watch you react to Sing about me, I’m dying of thirst! Especially the latter part. To me, that’s his best writing, and possibly the greatest lyrics produced in rap to this day.
What a masterpiece of a song
Yeah, she’d definitely need some form of context though, because that song isn’t really about the vocals and it goes incredibly in-depth with the lyrics.
I’m a metalhead at heart and of an age where I witnessed the “birth” of Rap/Hip-Hop as a popular genre with bands like NWA and Run DMC. At the time I couldn’t stand it, and would still generally say I am not a fan. There are some good songs but as a whole I can leave most of it.
Having said that I took my son to see Kendrick a couple of years ago because he loves rap and wanted to go. I started listening to him so I wouldn’t be going in blind and I was impressed with a lot of his work.
The show itself was phenomenal, and I’ve had the pleasure of seeing some great live bands. He came out and was alone on stage for most of the set. His energy was amazing, you could tell he enjoyed doing what he was doing, and he was as clear lyrically live as he is on the studio version. The crowd had an energy that I have only ever truly felt at Iron Maiden or Sabaton shows. It was a truly wonderful experience.
I am still not a fan of most of what my son listens to, but some of it, like Kendrick, is very good.
Yeah, it really sucks that rap today is nearly popularized by mumble and bland lyricism. Kendrick Lamar really is one of the greatest to ever put pen to paper, even in some of his more trap songs. Idk if you are familiar with him, but Kanye West's old music is also very good and I would recommend it (preferably The College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation, and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy).
I'm a huge rap fan but 90% of live performances are just bad because its hard to rap and at the same time elevate your voice to reach an entire arena or wherever the show is. Very few can do that and Kendrick is one of the best at it
4:49 that's why he is called an MC and not a commercial rapper doing it for the cash oy like some modern rappers, he speaks on topics of their community and culture through music and that's who an MC is
Was not expecting this on your channel, love it. Really hope you do more Kendrick songs.
I always felt like this song is more of Kendrick announcing his takeover of hip-hop as the new self-declared King. Great breakdown of all the things that make Kendrick's voice and style stand-out from the pack.
You should definitely listen to more Kendrick. Hes a lyrical genius and his music is just amazing. You could choose any of his songs and I'm sure you would love it
I’ve always like Kendrick’s voice but didn’t know how to describe it u helped me out 😂
More Kendrick, please!!! Love it!!!
you NEEEED to react to something off of To Pimp A Butterfly, I would especially recommend Wesley's Theory
Kendrick Lamar the goat
You can react to this on the channel or not but, listen to “Mother I Sober” by him. Its right in your music lane, I guarantee 100% you’ll love it and you’ll understand why he’s heavily regarded.
You should react Kendrick Mother I Somber featuring Beth Gibbons of Portishead. Its a beautiful and powerful song about his trauma from his childhood.
A good song to react to is dna he has such amazing breath control in that song and it’s a bop
should def. do more Kendrick! Dude is a legit savant of our generation
A vocal coach delving into hip hop via Kendrick? interesting choice. I think Nate Dogg would be a great one to analyze/ react to.
Feliz 2024 a todos 👏
You for sure should react to more rap, there are many interesting things there:
I'd like to see you react to 'For free' by Kendrick. It's a real trip!
You should listen to Good Kid Maad City. It’s a melodic project
React to Sing about me by Kendrick or alright by Kendrick
Que vídeo tan raro hasta la canción se me hizo rara tan rara como ................... mi ratoncito escocés bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀
I don't care too much about rap/hip-hop, but Kendrick Lamar is DOPE! .Damn and to pimp a butterfly are two MASTERPIECES!
Check out Jedi mind tricks, living legends, old school tech n9ne, atmosphere, Andre nikatina etc. rap / hip hop goes fucking HARD!!
@@mookiestewart3776 100%! I hate that rap gets a poor rating from people due to some of the newer mumble shit. I'm happy that artists like Kendrick and J Cole are keeping real rap alive.
Should have done Backseat Freestyle 😂
Kendrick is the goat!!!!!!!!
About a million other songs i would rather you hear but im here for any kenny
Untitled 8 live performance would great to react to or i - live too
Omg you are so beautiful 🥹
I’d say check out alright by Kendrick, true testament to his craft
Why does Beth wear two watches?
Highly recommend checking out Aesop Rock's "None Shall Pass" if you're wanting to look into a really lyrical hip hop artist. Kenny is the GOAT, but he's the tip of the iceberg when it comes to modern hip hop.
It’s a really good song. A little… his music has more in common with like RJD2 musically. Almost Blockhead. But it’s all from the brilliance of the lyrics and rhyme that he is hip hop. The appreciation for that.
YESSSSSS
He won the Pulitzer. He’s. A. G.O.A.T.
this song definitely isn’t the best for a first time reaction, i’d recommend his snl performance of “i” or his 2016 grammys performance!!
"Sometimes we need to hear things in harsh terms"
You could almost say sometimes we need to be humbled?
bad choice for a vocal reaction of Kendrick... You should try PRIDE, FEAR or maybe some from Mr Morale
U absolutely have to do keith whitley dont close your eyes the greatest voice to ever exists as a matter of fact country stations wouldnt play his music because they said he was to country
Close minded geeks at the bottom of the comments list
Just heard this today for the first time too…. I’m sure my face was like hers…”I don’t get it…. It’s ok, not great( and I listen to K-Pop and show tunes too)…. Exceedingly forgettable actually
K-pop and show tunes 😭
I like Kendrick, he really has some good stuff, but never understood how this track was so popular, definitely not his best in my opinion. He (or his label) seems to be pandering to what he thinks the public wants from its rap artists in a bid to sell records. It's got an average, monotonous flow and lyrics a schoolboy could have written. But hey, everyone has different tastes and I'm not going to diss anyone who like this.
yeah this one is definitely just a "hit song". Kendrick has so many incredible songs tho, hope she reacts to it later
Well, this song was actually made on the entire basis of "Kendrick can't produce a good trap song". He took that with a chip on his shoulder and made one of the most streamed songs ever. While this isn't even close to his best work, it is something that is catchy and so foreign to his previous music that media outlets ate it up. I personally prefer DNA. as a trap song over HUMBLE.. DNA. had great flow, lyricism, and a very impactful message to a certain set of reporters who discredited him.
Our last nights version is even better
Great reaction! But this is definitely one of his weaker songs in my opinion 😂
This is a diss song aimed at Drake😂
i dont think this is the right song to do that
Beth this might get a little long... If you want to hear the most popular Independent rapper-artist You need to check out Tom Macdonald he has over 4 million youtube subscibers. When he posts a song he gets over a million views in one day. You will be able to hear every word he raps or sings A good place to start would be "Dear Rappers"... It is an open letter to the rap industry.
Your reaction are great and informing I enjoy them, Beth.
Tom is low-tier rapper and he doesn't even come close to Kendrick's level. If anything, she should check out artists like Danny Brown, Aesop Rock, ASAP ROCKY, RTJ and J. Cole.
Blud said tom McDonald lmaoooo
@@ianhusk9052😭😭😭
@@IVUSERcalling him low-tier is being too nice be honest
@@BalloonSeasonArchive dude is straight trash
I'm a boomer so by and large I neither like nor understand the obsession with rap...this has not moved my needle one bit...however...watching Beth's reaction (or lack thereof) was priceless and made my time listening to this crap worth it. 😱🤣
I hope I never stop enjoying new music. It would be a huge downer.
Shhh....I don't think they like sanity on this channel.
@chickenmonger123 I have never stopped learning about and enjoying music...old and new. I am a huge fan of GVF and many younger bands, solo musicians, etc. I think some rap is good. I am aware KL has garnered numerous grammys for his work. I just don't like his language nor his degradation of women. Call it sub-cultural/age divide..whatever..it's not pleasing to me. You made an inaccurate assumption that needed to be corrected.

@57too Ok...this I don't get...who doesn't like sanity here..the other respondent to me? Just answered that one.
Nope! 🙁
Why?
Mumble should be the title😂
Clean out your ears lil bro
Go listen to TPAB
awful. This "song" is unlistenable.
To you
C’mon. Be humble
And just why is that? Do you not understand the message of the song, or do you hear a rap beat and go back to your primal ways of "rap bad, rap go gun drug women"?
Nah, he's right. I mean, I like rap, I grew up listening to the likes of wu, pac, biggie, nas, bone, em, but this.. this is garbage. the only thing interesting was the video. i've heard a lot about kendrick, so i was pretty excited to finally get a listen when i clicked... and now all i'm curious about is why? I really hope he's got something else in his bag, cause this aint doing it.
@@twistedpixel756 Its not garbage you have to listen to the whole album to see the context it plays within the message he tries to convey, there's a reason the album won a pulitzer
I hate rap-Sorry-Chanting
Why waste you time on these over-promoted thug-types?
All rap and today's R&B stuff is GARBAGE!
Because with a little time and understanding I have found that there is a lot to be learned and appreciated.
Why waste time trying to bring others down to your level of ignorance..?
@@BethRoars
I’ve never heard this song. I thought your reaction was very interesting to watch. Some people 🙄
I'd try expanding your world view and musical taste.
Calm down Karen! U obviously don’t know Kendrick and his discography bc dude has some crazy good meaningful songs some that would even make u cry for example, mother I sober and many more so don’t judge off of one song
This is just nonsense lyrics put to a beat. There is nothing that impressive here at all. Yes some of the patterns of the flow are pleasing, but the lyrics themselves are just nonsense and put there just to rhyme and keep the cadence working. I like hip hop, but this just seems like a 10th grader that thinks they're really deep.
I'm not even a hip-hop fan, but over the years I opened up to all kinds of music, so I listened to a fair share of hip-hop too. As with most genres, I like some, don't like some other stuff.
Yes, this song is quite catchy, and no disrespect to the artist, but to me it's really a run of the mill performance. Pretty much the same flow all the time, nothing creative or interesting here. Rap/Hip Hop can be a lot more than this.
Totally agree
I disagree. This is a standout track from the genre imo. I mean Kendrick ain't no Eminem lyrically or cadence and flow wise. But dude this song is a classic.
@@dutchplanderlinde8883 Demonstrate why. If it's a "standout" track, then you should be able to demonstrably show why. Kendrick's ability to flow is impressive no doubt, but the lyrics are complete and utter garbage. There's no clever or hidden doubles, there's nothing of substance. Nonsense lyrics. "Bitch sit down, be humble". This is what passes as "standout"? I'd rather listen to Pete & Bas than this
@YTSucksMyAss Well, my friend, with an honestly great nickname, allow me to defend my position briefly and as simply as I can.
I majored in the study and comprehension of music theory with additional credits in musical composition at the college and university level. I am proud to add to this qualification that I made my living for nearly a decade as a professional touring musician.
I apologize for the caveat to come, but I prefer honesty. As such, I genuinely don't care what your opinion is regarding this information. I also would prefer to avoid making this discussion hostile. If things get insulting or ugly, I'm out. I'm not trying to be blunt, only honest.
As a result of education, training, and experience, I will gladly admit that the words in the song and overall vocal timbre, the story, theme, or lesson of the lyrics mean nothing to me as a listener. I give the words zero attention or weight as a consideration when I judge a song.
Those are words. They are not music. They can be rhythmic. They can be shifted in pitch and tone. They can be delivered in a melodic fashion.
They are not music. I just... don't care about that aspect of the track at all. Holds no value to me because that is not music, nor is it musical on a fundamental, mathematical level.
I'm therefore not certain how to explain why I find better than average worth in this track. You're judging its lyrical content, and I'm placing my value entirely on its compositional worth as a piece of music.
More than happy to keep talking. This is literally my expertise and has been my only obsession since I was 7. No cap. This is so fun for me, and I'm stoked that you responded. Thank you.
