Sorry for the audio quality guys, mic audio got corrupted. BUT MY GOODNESS!! This is literally one of the best songs Iv'e ever listened to. Can't believe I missed this all these years. Recorded this a week ago and it's been stuck on my mind sense!
I'm going to recommend an odd song, but an odd artist. It's a bit in the folk song theme. It "Pretty Little One" by Steve Martin... It's simular, yet completely different. Lol I know that statement lacks logic, but even if you don't do a reaction, I think you will understand once you hear it.
This song came out while I was in HS, blew my mind too. Glad to see a fresh reaction to it, I haven't heard it for a minute. But still know every word 🤣
Especially how it happens only after that 3rd verse. After Billy committed that unforgivable sin, there was no turning back. The devil successfully captured his soul at that moment.
Tech is inconsistent with how he tells the story. The way I heard it, the guy he met in prison was in because they couldn't find an alleged rapist so they killed his son so they could catch him at the funeral. "Hood justice" taken too far. And he used that as inspiration i guess. But the story is completely different.
@@AceofDlamonds In another interview he says it is a hood ghost story, depending on who tells it, the victim is a sister or an aunt or a friend etc, this is just his rendition of it.
I used to be a total metalhead, listened to nothing but death metal and deathcore until I met some friends back when I was like 18 or 19 and they showed me this song. It's hard to put into words what this song makes you think, you did a great job explaining things as you perceive them. My personal devil is my addiction to alcohol. Here's something I wrote while I was locked up last year because of alcohol. "I fill up my cup, I fill up my liver. Drown out my heart, make believe that it's alright to dance with my demons. The devil's slow dance. Step by step, I stumble down the stairs towards Hell." Just a bit of a whole poem I wrote about my addiction, but when I wrote this I totally forgot about this song and didn't even connect the two until just now. Still going strong in my recovery, almost 8 months clean! 💪
I don’t know you man but I hope you’re still going strong. Sadly my dad was also addicted to alcohol and thanks to that he hasn’t been a part of my life. The consequences of that addiction are not only self destructive but they affect those around you. I hope you’re staying strong not only for yourself but for those around you. You got this man.
Hip Hop at its finest when it was lyrical, poetic and with a message... Another wonderful reaction as always TooBlunt Hope you have a wonderful weekend
One of the best reactions to this song. Great to see you processing the deeper meanings and implications of the verses. Immortal Technique’s storytelling is on another level.
Industrial Revolution, 3rd World, 4th Branch, Obnoxious, Harlem Renaissance, Internally Bleeding, Point of No Return, The Cause of Death, Dominant Species, Hollywood Drive-by, You Never Know... ALL AMAZING
Instantly had to subscribe. Not many people understand the deeper meaning behind this song . It's an eerie vibe but beneath the surface it's a warning to young people. Respect . You can really break a song down .
Knowing what you know is half the battle. Knowing what you don’t know is the other half. One’s intelligence will always have a cap without the active recognition of what they don’t know.
This song is absolutely legendary. 💯 the fact that so many reactors have never heard this song blows my mind. Kudos to the people who suggested it! Great video!❤
Immortal Technique - Point of no return Immortal Technique - The Cause of Death Immortal Technique - You Never Know Three more bangers by him. Man, I saw you did this and you were getting hyped about it and I am sitting here thinking, "wait for the end though!" I fucking love Immortal Technique!
IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE 'YOU NEVER KNOW ' LYRICS / THIS ONE IS A LOVE STORY (It will make up for this one ) Thankyou for your reaction !!! LOVE FROM GEORGIA
Best reaction video I have seen to date. Made my feelings validated. Immortal Technique did rewire my brain growing up and this song was gripping as fuck when I first heard it. Glad to see an appropriate reaction to it. Thanks for the video.
Immortal Technique - 3rd World is a another really good song of his. This is a great reaction video, your analysis is spot on and I love how you back the video up just a little bit after unpausing so you don't miss a single bar.
I'm not really into hip hop but this randomly came on my Spotify a few weeks back and I can't stop thinking about it, Jesus. It has really stuck with me. I like darker songs but holy fuck, this is something else.
Absolutely appreciate your response. The devil...if you take it right back in the track...started as a dream. Watch your thoughts and HOW your thoughts MANIFEST... ✌️
I heard this at a very young age when the song came out if you grew up in nyc around that time you have to have heard it I remember playing it for months definitely taught me one thing don’t get easily manipulated no matter what the rewards might be greed is devil on its own
I love watching first time reactions to this song. Anyone who has knows whats coming. kid is loving the tunes bobbing his head then @ 10.43 BOOM .... No one tells story's like IT
I listened to this song when I was in elementary and understood it 100%…. It would give me nightmares, it was so dark… and I loved it, because only real art makes you feel hard emotions
So i heard this song over a decade ago. it reminded me of the hood where i grew up... so one day i get my Brother Billy and put this song on for him and just watch.. he was all up and in it jamming to it.. then bam the twist and the shock on his face... I think he finally saw his lifestyle for what it was he slowly changed from there... eventually he lost his war to his inner demons (rip porky piomp)....... this song is beast... I have played this for many wanna be gangstas over the years and it works.... ImTech is one of the best at what he does.... and he has NEVER SOLD OUT
"We're only meant to be in our mom 1 time not twice" ☠️☠️☠️ I had such a serious face and that caught me so off gaurd 🤣🤣 loved your reaction, subbed. About to binge watch your channel now, you have great energy and you really listen and talk, appreciate it already
Thank you for this reaction. When Tech says he was there he is referring to the metaphor as a whole. When he was young he had those delusions of gang bangers being heroes and wanting to become that. Great reaction to one of the best songs ever written. You have gained a subscriber. Keep it up.
This song caused me to turn my life around when I first heard it. Prior to this song I was hanging around bad people and going down a bad path that didn't have a happy ending.
Great reaction my dude. This is music from my time coming up. It's just really refreshing to see you catching the bars and the meaning behind them. big ups to you. respect
You're very intelligent. A lot of reactors don't see the point of this song. It's Tech's way of telling minorities to treat woman better and to not let greed run your life. It has to be dark, it has too rattle your core, it's the only way to send the message home that the cycle will never break if POC (his words, not mine) keep treating their greatest asset like shit. That asset being woman. You understood every bar, but I think you missed the part where Tech says his mom stopped doing drugs and starting working long hours. "She put the pipe down, but for every year she was sober, her sons heart simultaneously grew colder."
this is story telling at its greatest, one of the greatest but coldest songs ever, just incredible I know for ages Immortal Technique didnt like talking about the ending, but i think he did say, that although he wasnt there, it was something he had heard happened on the streets
One of my favorite lines is right after the mother reveal - "And he remembered how his mom used to come home late . Working hard for nothing, 'cause now what was he worth." - Billy was now a disgusting and worthless worm of a person, so all her hard work trying to provide for him growing up, was a complete waste. Also the part where he says he was there and participated, is meant to show that we all have good/bad or angels/demons inside of us. People keep their demon's hidden, so you never know who is standing next to you, or in the crowd at a show ... it could very well be a monster.
I remember hearing this in high school, around 16 or 17. Bent out of my mind in my friends basement. All silent just listening. Then severe shock for the rest of the night.
Bro, you haven't listened to any Immortal Techniqe?! You gotta check out all his songs, and collabs. I would start with the fourth branch of the government and his song with Chuck D and Brother Ali. If you want deep lyrics filled with Truth, and poetry.... Immortal Techniqe is pretty much on the list of the gold standard. P.S. this is his darkest and most controversial song. Kind of his "Stan". Now on to watch the reaction. P.P.S. seriously, I would consider it a favor to see a reaction to civil war. I'll tip.
@@TooBlunt Civil War is a song of Immortal Techniqe with Killer Mike, Chuck D, and Brother Ali. All (IMHO) all stars of conscious hip hop on par with KRS-ONE. Seriously I'll tip. I got five on it on cashapp.
Listen to this reminded me of being alot younger been awhile since ih head this but also made me think of another you would like no regrets by aceop rock
Thank you for doing the right version. So many ppl check the animated version which has parts cut out. One of my favourite and greatest story telling tracks of all time. So deep, dark and twisted. Really enjoyed your commentary on this one..
Opiates was my devil for 10 years. Thank god for methadone clinics lol. I decided not to go through rehab, and just go with the methadone treatment. It worked great for me, as I was still able to carry out my normal life working, whereas rehab I would have had to take time off and/or possibly quit depending on the time needed. I was mentally strong enough to deal with it on my own, but I highly suggest rehab for everyone, as they offer an escape, doctors, and psychiatric help and so on. Choose the path that works for you. I wish all those who are struggling the best, and stay strong!
LMAOOO bro i love it when i see people hear this song for the first time, it really puts ppl into perspective this old school hiphop shit is wild, these old MCs speak on some crazy shit... especially immortal technique. he has the rawest bars i've ever heard
this song saved my life, i was surrounded with nothing but corruption and darkness growing up. my family was amazing but outside, this was my reality. I remember first hearing on the bus to school in middleschool, i had already been indoctrinated into the culture. I was selling weed and acid and was corrupting those around me to take advantage of them. this song showed me just how far the lifestyle would be. Im 21 now, and growing up i believed i would either be evil or dead by now. family is my only priority now and i have this song to remind me that although im struggling my alternative would lead to a worse outcome.
It is really nice to see a smart young guy really understanding the essence of this 20 year old song. Lots of of peeps been click bating on the "I raped her too". Anyone who has some knowledge of storytelling and lyricism knows that this is a masterpiece. A Whole book in a rap song. And that shit is real even where i come from. but people that are reacting and think he litterally was there didnt listen to the lyrics and doesnt know what storytelling is about. But bi ups to you youngin.
I've remained relatively sane, although "the Devil" has attacked me in more ways than i'd think we were built for. Alcohol, drugs, abuse, homelessness just to mention some. Still struggling to this day, but somehow i've found a state of mind where i'm proud of who i Am inside. I refuse to see myself as a victim, refuse to grow ugly and bitter... IF there was someone to "blame" for everything.....what good would it do??? Theres beauty and light everywhere, if you dare to let it in. ❤
Appreciate what you do! Immortal technique, you never know has been mentioned already, definitely second that recommendation!! Two other great story raps that come to mind right now for me if you're on the search: Fat cats, bigga fish by the coup Little Houdini by sage Francis Take care, keep up the great work!
I refer to this song as the "F*** up your day blister kit" This song is one for the history books. You will never hear ANYTHING like this in rap ever again.

I'm going to recommend an odd song, but an odd artist. It's a bit in the folk song theme. It "Pretty Little One" by Steve Martin... It's simular, yet completely different. Lol I know that statement lacks logic, but even if you don't do a reaction, I think you will understand once you hear it.
Fire reaction that's all that matters
This song came out while I was in HS, blew my mind too. Glad to see a fresh reaction to it, I haven't heard it for a minute. But still know every word 🤣
Tech is fantastic. Dude actually lives what he preaches. He has a orphanage in Afghanistan for the children affected by the conflict.
If you like this you should check out uncommon valor by Vinnie Paz
"I'm fallen and I can't turn back .." that line has always hit so different.
Survival of the fittest! 🎶
RIp Prodigy
It's a sample from Mob Deep if ya didn't know
Especially how it happens only after that 3rd verse. After Billy committed that unforgivable sin, there was no turning back. The devil successfully captured his soul at that moment.
@@TR13400 This was probably one of the best use of sampling in hip hop in the history of sampling in hip hop.
"I can recognize my moms walk from a mile away, IDIOT" 💀💀💀
Shit was funny af lmao
They got billy high & drunk that's why he didn't notice his mom's walk or voice when she cried for help.
So basically, when he got locked up he met a dude who told him this story and why he got locked up, he re told that story in that mans shoes.
Tech is inconsistent with how he tells the story. The way I heard it, the guy he met in prison was in because they couldn't find an alleged rapist so they killed his son so they could catch him at the funeral. "Hood justice" taken too far. And he used that as inspiration i guess. But the story is completely different.

I hardly ever comment, but your analysis and viewpoint was so spot! Absolute Great job. Wonderful insight.
We share the same name :) thanks for the feedback pal

That poem was beautifully haunting.. Hope you doing better man

Perfection here. And thank you, hope you so you:)
You had the best insight into this out of all reaction videos of the song. Nicely done.
💯💯
agreed 100%
this is probably one of the best reactions on youtube to this song how your realizing its so real and adressing how much story telling it is props man
I remember hearing this song for the first time around 2005 and being mind blown. Glad to see it getting a second life.
cap
@@bonkywonky17 how u know hes cappin? The song is 21 years old it came out in 2001
Serious I hear this around the same time to and was blown away with this destructive masterpiece
One of the best reactions to this song. Great to see you processing the deeper meanings and implications of the verses. Immortal Technique’s storytelling is on another level.
This song was a story that his cellmate told him when immortal was in prison. It’s why his cellmate got locked up i think
“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
Industrial Revolution, 3rd World, 4th Branch, Obnoxious, Harlem Renaissance, Internally Bleeding, Point of No Return, The Cause of Death, Dominant Species, Hollywood Drive-by, You Never Know... ALL AMAZING
Agreed. A great list.
This song will always shift the souls who listens so impactful true art.
This beat, absolutely chilling definitely adds to the dark vibe of the song
when your blinded by arrogance you can't even see your own mother sadly
I’m glad this dude understands every line is something different
Easily still one of the best reaction to this gem of a song. No matter how dark, it's such a beautifully told tragic story.
Man's a story teller for sure. Heard this song when I was like 14 or 15 and it will stay with me till I die. Dudes an amazing artist.
Instantly had to subscribe. Not many people understand the deeper meaning behind this song . It's an eerie vibe but beneath the surface it's a warning to young people. Respect . You can really break a song down .

Immortal Technique - Point of no return
Immortal Technique - The Cause of Death
Immortal Technique - You Never Know
Three more bangers by him.
Man, I saw you did this and you were getting hyped about it and I am sitting here thinking, "wait for the end though!" I fucking love Immortal Technique!
Right! I was thinking the same thing!
Im a classic rock guy, time to open my mind to classic rap...
you never know fucking hit me mad hard.
Frontlines
You Never Know is my second favorite song from him.. can you guess the first
This song made me rewatch my life.

Most of the times i listen to rap i can barely understand the lyrics but this song i can hear everything word for word
Absolutely appreciate your response. The devil...if you take it right back in the track...started as a dream. Watch your thoughts and HOW your thoughts MANIFEST...
✌️
“You never know” is another really good song by him
This man is the truth! 4th branch is another deep song I know I'm not a patron but he's giving out wonderful knowledge
Immortal Technique- you never know 💯 another good one
You are a very intelligent understanding wise young man. If I was your parent I’d be beyond proud of you.
:) thank you for the comment. Got me to smile ear to ear :D

I heard this at a very young age when the song came out if you grew up in nyc around that time you have to have heard it I remember playing it for months definitely taught me one thing don’t get easily manipulated no matter what the rewards might be greed is devil on its own
I can’t listen to this without automatically crying
His whole first album is a raw masterpiece
This makes me wanna declare war on gangsters and drug dealers
I love watching first time reactions to this song. Anyone who has knows whats coming. kid is loving the tunes bobbing his head then @ 10.43 BOOM .... No one tells story's like IT
You never know by immortal tech another great song story
Best reaction to this song I've seen. Nice job!
This was the song that I first hear by Immortal Technique that intrigued me into his discography. I've yet to look back.
I listened to this song when I was in elementary and understood it 100%…. It would give me nightmares, it was so dark… and I loved it, because only real art makes you feel hard emotions
Love the energy new school. old school are always willing to tell you how it WAZ 😂
Can't go wrong with immortal every song has a deep meaning if you have a deeper mindset of understanding dudes bars are raw and heavy
So i heard this song over a decade ago. it reminded me of the hood where i grew up... so one day i get my Brother Billy and put this song on for him and just watch.. he was all up and in it jamming to it.. then bam the twist and the shock on his face... I think he finally saw his lifestyle for what it was he slowly changed from there... eventually he lost his war to his inner demons (rip porky piomp)....... this song is beast... I have played this for many wanna be gangstas over the years and it works.... ImTech is one of the best at what he does.... and he has NEVER SOLD OUT
I hear those first few piano notes of the song and my fucking stomach drops out. Fucking raw stuff.

Heard this back in 2008 in high school never looked at rap the same since the storytelling was gold then

P.S. this is his darkest and most controversial song. Kind of his "Stan".

I'll tip.
Is civil war a song by someone or what is it exactly ?

at 10:38 when you herd it before he said it, ya i felt that...
I cant wait to see your reaction when we get to the end at 6:39 great reaction so far

Definitely wasn't his first time.
Immortal Technique - "You never know"
Suggestion based on some things you said here: Bezz Believe - "Karma"
This is one of the best reactions to this song I've seen
I have NEVER heard a reaction song breakdown like this. ABSOLUTLEY BRILLIANT, I LOVED IT! Excellent! YOU give me hope for #HIPHOP, thank you. 👏👏👏
Great reaction bro
4th branch of the government and Obnoxious are my 2 favorite
Great reaction! He is so underrated.

This song is fictional but he explains the mother represents what we do to our people. Tech was a thug once and through himself in the song.
Immortal techniques one of my favorite artists. Two artists I'd recommend. Dax and Merkules
Appreciate what you do!
Immortal technique, you never know has been mentioned already, definitely second that recommendation!!
Two other great story raps that come to mind right now for me if you're on the search:
Fat cats, bigga fish by the coup
Little Houdini by sage Francis
Take care, keep up the great work!
THANKYOU SIR !!!
you are an OG reactor, just came across your channel and subscribed, watched you back in the day on old channel im glad your still doing your thing
such a good song and such a good reaction video
Immortal Technique- freedom of speech
Akala - fire in the booth 4
Love your reaction... not many actually express their thoughts .. so thankyiu
