everyone forgets just how funny kanye was and still is when he wants to be. i born the same year this came out but i’m happy i went back to the old albums because now i really see how he got the fan base he did. it’s albums like this one LR and Graduation and 808s that really show that ye really is the greatest.
@@navysammy2411 I do not haha. I remember when he followed a single random dude on twitter but I don't do twitter and it's more his bars I'm referring to. It just ain't there like it was and that's ok because he's done that. We've always got CD and LR, and I appreciate them but we don't need to pretend he's the best comic on the mike when he ain't about it any more.
Just a note to add, this version of "Through the Wire" isn't the original recording. After Kanye's jaw healed, he re-recorded the verses. If you look up "Through the wire original" you'll notice it is very obvious that his jaw is wired shut, and some words he can't pronounce properly
I dropped out of college in January of 04. This I felt like a loser. My mom being an educator I felt I broke her heart. I was really in a bad place. This album saved my life. I’ve watched the two episodes of the documentary which was the making of TCD. Seeing him with his mom who was also an educator. Brought tears to my eyes. My mother has supported everything I’ve done. It took a while to figure things out. But seeing Kanye’s early path and hearing this album brings back memories.
Dropping out of college with 1 semester left of finish was the biggest and best thing I’ve ever done. Broke out of the system, and felt absolutely free.

Kanye becoming almost legally insane will never take away from his music in my eyes, the MOST talented musician of the past 20 years in my eyes. Hopefully one day he gets help and can return to this 2000s Kanye.
I’ve been listening to Ye for almost 20 years.. his music has always spoken to me and I will never not love him as an artist. But that makes it more heartbreaking for me to watch him struggle and go down such a hateful path. I hope he can come to terms with his demons and find some peace, because I’m tired of having to hide the fact that I’m a Kanye fan over fear of being shamed.
Seeing your dad get so excited about Twista’s verse on Slow Jamz almost brought a tear to my eye 🥲 Growing up, Twista’s entire Kamikaze album was on repeat because he was my mom’s favorite rapper, but that song specifically feels like a staple of my childhood. These reactions are really really cool to witness, thank you for sharing them
i remember hearing slow jamz playing in the car at night time while going through manhattan so nostalgic especially during winter time with all the lights
37:30 "Nothing on here was a huge radio hit" The album debuted at #2 on the US Billboard 200 and All Falls Down and Slow Jamz were both top 10 billboard hot 100 songs. He wasn't anywhere near peaked but I remember unwrapping that album and popping it in my moms car CD player with so much hype.
You probably won’t see this, but I stumbled upon your channel from the Algorithm and I’m so glad I did. As a Dad with two young boys I found myself in tears seeing the joy you both share in the music but more importantly, each other. My father and I are estranged and I don’t think it will ever be repaired so this is not possible for us. My hope is that I can have this experience with my own kids and revel in their delights and passions. Bravo to you both.

This is most prominent at the end when he reveals his deal doesn't go through, the beat crumbles into nothing but is then revived when he gets signed to rock a fella.
College Dropout will always be my favorite Ye album, not just because of the humor but because of the underdog status that bleeds into every track. It’s not even Kanye’s fault that he could never recover that, when you have a debut album this good you can never reclaim that underdog vibe…and that’s okay. But this is still his best one.
Connor had to grow up, his dong was already on point from day one. People look at babies and sometimes say, "my my that's a big head". People look at Connor as a baby and congratulate the parents on already providing for his PhD
Kanye west's producing skills have always been phenomenal, his first 3 albums really secured how talented he is at it. I remember listening to this for the first time and thinking "so this is why music is art". Why I learned to love Tyler, The Creator, J Cole and similar artists.
I think i understood this too, this album was a religious experience about the black experience and didnt have to be about gang culture/violence.... I could totally see this is the album that made alot of people want to follow in his steps, especially when you realize how intimate it was
All Falls Down, Jesus Walks, and Through The Wire were gigantic when this album first came out. Oh and Slow Jams. Massive. Workout Plan was big too when the music video dropped.
"Through The Wire" was such an important first single off this debut cause it helped introduce the backstory of Kanye's accident to anyone who was just discovering who he was. Then, they could listen to the album and catch all the different references to the incident in the lyrics of the tracks that precedes "Through The Wire" and appreciate on another level how dope and creative some of them are
For the future it would be dope if you gave a little bit of background about the album beforehand too. Like when you guys do 808’s talk about how its all about him grieving the death of his mom, and on Ye how he was going though it mentally at that time
I was thinking the same thing, especially with 808s. Kanye lost his mother, his fiancé ended their engagement, his album was having pretty mixed reviews, more so negatives for most listeners. Also can’t forget his studio sessions in Hawaii. Just an interesting chapter in Ye’s career that isn’t touched on enough.
This album has such a special place in my heart. It was the turning point in my life when I fell in love with hip hop. I’ve seen so many Kanye think pieces/ video essays breaking down his work it’s kind of cool watching someone hear it for the first time. Well done!
Ik this corny but I just wanna say I had a hard day at work and came home in a bad mood, but I saw this video and it instantly put a smile on my face. I love these videos so much please keep going.
This is my favorite Kanye record. No one can do it like him. He’s such a pioneer of great music and he makes such gorgeous stuff. Love this album and I love this channel
I don't know what Julian Casablancas looks like but I'm familiar with his music and so I actually believed him for a good 5 mins before I googled a pic of him lol
@@mahazchowdhury4969 Me 2 bro, I relate so much to this album. Having a degree and all but not being totally happy with my job. So spaceship is my daily routine haha. I wish you the best of luck brother 🙏🏽
@@ykwhattheysay.3176 For the longest College Dropout was my favorite, but as i started listening to Late Registration more ..... man it just hits different
Thank you so much for these! My dad died 3 years ago and I would always talk to him about music and what I was listening to and see what he liked. He would let me know any Kanye news or other major music news. Watching these feels like my dad is here too.
Cant wait to see him listen to Hey Mama, We Major, Roses, Touch the Sky, Drive Slow, Gold Digger, Heard Em Say. Damn Late Registration is such a good album
One of my favorite things about this album college album series is that this music is for the middle class average American. Nearly everyone can relate, but Kanye really tailored it for those folks who have semi normal lives and live every day struggle of just trying to be a person living the best they can with what they are given. It's such a simple concept and yet he was really one of the first rappers to target this specific crowd and it did wonders for him.
He mentioned showing him Anita Baker and I think that’s a great idea. I wanna see them switch seats and have his dad host some videos and show him music that he knows really well. Whether that’s rock or R&B or whatever he’s listened to his entire life, that would be really cool.
I can’t help but tear up during these reactions because music is such an important part of my life and not only are you reacting to my favorite albums, but I never had the best relationship with my father and I would do anything to just have him sit and appreciate the stuff I love with me. You guys are seriously amazing and keep up the great work.
My dad passed away last month on the 21st. Cancer. I wished we did this too. Never had a good relationship with him. I did make him listen to Only One. I wished I made him listen to more.
Same man. I remember where I was during all of his albums. For college dropout I was in 7th grade doing whatever 7th graders do listening to this album on repeat. His discography spans my whole adult life.
I love how your dad talks about what he‘s heard mit song when it‘s in the hook or just the instrumental, but as soon as someone starts rapping again he stops talking mid sentence and focusses on the lyrics. I appreciate that so much and that shows that he‘s really interested in listening
I never ever comment on RUclips videos but the relationship you have with your dad and the joy you guys share doing this together is amazing and I had to comment. These albums I grew up with and watching you share this is an amazing flashback. Awesome video and Cudi Clan 4 ever!
Back in high school my favorite english teacher asked me what I was listening to during one of our writing projects, I told him Kanye West. He kinda laughed at first cuz I figured he knew more about Kanye's wild public persona and didn't take him too seriously. I told him he makes good music. He didn't quite believe me at first, but he let me give /him/ a homework assignment that weekend, where I told him to listen to this album and tell me how he felt. That monday he came back and told me he really liked it. True story.
That’s fucking awesome! I hate how people gravitate towards his personality when he has like serious issues but like he’s a genuine person and has caused so much influence in so many peoples lives.
I have a similar story, two years ago my friend and I went on a road trip with our friends GF. We asked her if she knew ye and she said she hated him. We pressed further and the only thing she knew about him was slavery was a choice and trump. Literally nothing else. We spent the entire 4.5 hour car trip playing his discography and explaining his career and she ended up becoming a pretty big fan to this day
This reaction is possibly my favourite ever reaction on RUclips. Outstanding, so glad you're both so open minded as alot of people refuse to accept how talented Kanye is. They just see his crazy years and dismiss his back catalogue. Respect!
The excitement these videos give me since they are released once a week reminds me of when I was a child and I waited for a certain day of the week for a cable show like Pokémon, Ben 10, or Spongebob
Huge Kanye fan here! Just wanted to add that “All Falls Down” is the reason I became a Kanye fan. It originally was a poem called “Self Conscious” and he performed it on Def Poetry Jam. Seeing him perform it as a poem was life changing for me. Sounds a little weird, but the die hard Ye fans know what I mean. His music has got me through the hardest times in my life and it’s gotten me through the best times of my life. Thank you for showcasing his work. Also, plot twist, I am a die hard Billy Joel fan. It’s all about balance, right? He is an amazing artist and composer that I never see anyone react to. Just saying!
Billy Joel is iconic and I learned all about him through my dad!! He was the best and looooved music. I just listened to billy Joel’s essentials album on Apple Music like a few weeks ago. So good!
Idk why but I started to get teary-eyed when they got to never let me down. The nostalgia and the feels in this video just hit different. Thanks for this amazing experience, really enjoy your guys' reactions.
Through the wire is one of Kanye's all time greats. The high pitch vocals in the back adds layers to the creepiness' and sorrow with Kanye's story in this song. It also feels like a triumph he overcame and really shows how he's a "champion."
i knew Twista was gonna give your dad a great reaction. it still gives me goosebumps listening to his beatmatching. a great album and I wish i could listen to it again for the first time. Thanks for this channel :)
I’m a huge kanye fan, and have dove into his discography myself. But seeing you two look at into and shine light onto different aspects is so sick. With a younger mind influencing his father, showing him “what the kids think” is so cool to see and it’s so relatable. Bring a creative and visionary, something I struggle with is getting my dad or older people to truly understand
Probably a top 5 of all time album in terms of being revolutionary! Loved to see your dad appreciate the talent and culture! Also as a musician, I love that your dad has a musical ear and can pick out small instruments most wouldn't notice!
the nostalgia that flows through my body when i listen to this album, holy hell. i forgot how 'Workout Plan' was every where when it dropped. i love that 'Workout Plan' is about the pressure put on women and how we are only valued for our looks.
The fact that you're vibing with good flows like that naturally now and they hit you the same way a good solo does means you're really getting a grasp on this hip hop thing lol Really connecting with music in that way is so crucial to understanding a genre or artist's intentions fully on an emotional level, and your observations and feedback are spot on for someone who started about a year ago. Which brings me to my point: it's time you listened to Death Grips. I'm kidding, obviously they're worth recommending but only when you're ready. But you guys are on the path to be able to appreciate some really crazy stuff the more you do this, I'm really excited about the future of this channel!
@1:04:56 on Family Business when he talks about 'But you ain't have to tell my girl I used to pee in the bed' its a funny line for sure, but it also goes a little deeper. That whole verse is a reference to Ghostface Killah's "All That I Got Is You". That section of the song matches up so perfectly it's like it's a response from the other side of the family. Ghostface Killah - All That I Got Is You Check it, fifteen of us in a three bedroom apartment Roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts was there Four in the bed, two at the foot, two at the head I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon he peed the bed Kanye - Family Business And you don't wanna stay there 'cause them your worst cousins Got roaches at their crib like them your first cousins Act like you ain't took a bath with your cousins Fit three in the bed while six of y'all I'm talkin' 'bout three by the head and three by the leg But you ain't have to tell my girl I used to pee in the bed
When I tell people Kanye's my favorite artist of all time, people are perplexed because they have never heard of his older albums like College Dropout. His production is so rich and flavorful, full of amazing samples, and his lyrics are so creative and imaginative, being so honest and deep while keeping the whole thing light-hearted and witty. His first few albums changed my life in igniting my passion for music and hip-hop in general, so I'm glad you showed your dad this and he clearly loved it!
It’s so nice to see Kanye get his flowers while he’s still alive. between stuff like this and jeen yuhs to see Kanye’s whole journey and how he has impacted people and music is beautiful! Loved this video!
i can't even describe the excitement i have for your dad to hear Yeezus, I think it's Ye's most genre bending record and seeing him enjoy Rodeo a ton which pulls a lot from that, I'm sure he'll love it. Hold My Liquor and Blood on the Leaves better blow his mind
Shout out to you two kings for reviewing one of my favorite albums of all time. It’s awesome seeing dad vibing out to this album, very entertaining review. May your family be blessed with all the great things life and thank you for the great content.
1. Hearing your Dad discuss his joy at hearing Kanye’s beginning, to add context to MBDTFI, I’m really excited for his YEEZUS reaction. 2. Hearing your Dad realize how good a rapper Jay-Z is makes me excited for you to show him Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, and/or 4:44… Or Watch the Throne! 🤯
I just discovered your page today and ive already watched 6 of them. PLEASE continue to drop these videos, it gives me the feeling of listening to great music with other people who TRULY APPRECIATE it. Your dad discovering this new genre of music to him, called hip hop is a fun ride to be on.
I agree, it's most def arguably the greatest hip hop discography. I would say it is, nobody makes music and changes sounds quite like Kanye. I like artist who aren't afraid to switch up a sound and make an album that doesn't sound like everyone else.
Man it is so awesome to hear dad having an empathetic response to the music that best gives an example of the human experience. His perspective about Kanye and Jay being where they were and where they are is an example of why I fell in love with the genre as a kid. It’s awesome and I thoroughly enjoy this channel
I throughly enjoyed this video. I love the fact your dad is so open minded. I get a kick out of how much he appreciates everything, and realizes how much work went into creating this album❤️
“Family Business” and “Last Call” are two of my favorites. They have such a great groove and feel so f****** good-especially at a high AF volume on a big system. Kevin, you are an awesome dad, by the way. I’m not a fan of traditional music reviews or reaction videos, but I like what the two of you are doing. : )
I just want the next 8 videos to be Kanye’s discography in chronological order, your dad will be blown away by how ye evolved through his records into different genres his impact on the whole music scene. Imagine, the same guy who did college dropout, made yeezus years later😂
@@xmikex801 you ain’t lying. It was the first Ye album I only bought digitally. And the first couple songs I was like wtf is this? After a couple listens I was hooked.
This album came out the last semester I was in high school and it completely changed my life. Watching this brought me right back to that time in my life. Thank you both!
I highly recommend listening to the original Through the Wire demos when Kanye still has the jaw wires on, they're incredible. Also, Last Call is still Kanye's best work lyrically "Mayonnaise coloured Benz I push miracle whips" is genius
@@liquidgeorge You might well be right. A lot of Last Call is taken from Better Than Yours from the Kon the Louis Vuitton Don mixtape. That line might be on there somewhere as well 🙂
@@ilikemilkshake22 It’s just beautiful listening to this album again. I live in the U.K. and the original 2004 release has Last Call on the CD. Sometimes it takes watching other people hear it for the first time to really make you remember how incredible it was, and still is!
Can’t get enough of these reviews man. Good to see two genuine non ego people have at it just pure listening. One first time and the other already listened is cool as. I don’t know if you tally the recommendations and then go from there but I think after the full proper release of Faces by Mac it would be really great to go through. Debatably his best project as argued by the community from what I’ve seen over the years. Obviously Circles and Swimming would be great to do but I feel Faces would be great to start to do is semi-chronologically like you’re doing Kanye. Keep em’ coming dudes!
Agree with Faces being a great recommendation. IMO I think that would be the best introduction to Mac for him as opposed to Swimming or Circles. Faces is the most raw and authentic version of Mac and his talents Although I would wish they would get ahold of the OG mixtape version as the officially released recent version has been touched a bit and a lot of the samples used weren't cleared
@@mistayouneek Yeah I’m not sure if they like to exclusively listen off the vinyl, which is now available for Faces which is nice. Hopefully can grab it soon.
"I woke up early this mornin' with a new state of mind A creative way to rhyme without usin' knives and guns Keep your nose out the sky, keep your heart to God And keep your face to the risin' sun" I'm not even a religious person but this part of family business always gets to me on a deep level. Lyrics I will forever cherish.
I think you should have told your pops that “through the wire” was Kanye’s first ever single. Also that Kanye workout plan was a single that gots lot of radio play. Jesus walks also a single and got tons of radio play. He was on punked on the video set of Jesus walks.... but maybe the most important point was that Kanye was seen by his peers as just a producer. And that they didn’t think his rapping skills were good enough to break through. And how his sound really changed the sound of hip hop to soul sampling. Great video though love introducing people to Kanye who only know his more recent... craziness
stopped studying for over an hour for this one, and i can safely say that was the best possible decision. What an amazing album, definitely tied for my favorite album ever with Late Registration
i remember my first time hearing the line on we dont care about it being your first time hearing this and i remember i was walking home from my high school and it got me so excited and blew my mind. it literally gave me chills and made me realize how even like 9 years after the album had released it was still relevant because i was just a young teenager going back to listen to kanyes music for the first time and seeing you guys do this right now is giving me that same feeling in a way. keep up the great content guys! sending my love from canada!
i started listening as a jr in high school and when i heard the first line on this album. first album i ever listened to from ye was 808s and heartbreak, but i went back in order and fell in love w each album. crazy how long Ye’s music lasts
Through the Wire will always resonate with me because I also broke my jaw and when I listened to that song it felt so nice to hear someone going through the same experience as me. One song that I can never skip when it comes on.
Last year i was shot in the eye and the bullet went out the side of my mouth. Shattered my entire jaw and cheek bone. That song is forever a jam + my dad played A LOT of kanye growing up.

Love The Creator! Oh Tyler is good too I guess
Jesus Walks, Slow Jamz, All Falls Down, and Through the Wire were all huge hits when this came out.
This. Growing up in LA they played these all the time on the radio.
@@ZChoate same in Oahu
It’s crazy to think that i wasn’t even born when this came out.
@@toothbrush2988 Damn u young
@@stellar1252 they could be 17 not that young
I forget how important College Dropout is until I hear it again, best debut oat
true although man on the moon is up there too
Idk man, Illmatic and Get Rich or Dying Trying up there too
@@omaralvarado2068 true, at least kanye could top this, illmatic was too great to top for nas
Reasonable Doubt or Illmatic
Idk whatever people say I am that's what I'm not is pretty good
All Falls Down, Jesus Walks, and Through The Wire were gigantic when this album first came out. Oh and Slow Jams. Massive. Workout Plan was big too when the music video dropped.
Slow Jamz was #1 for MONTHS. Music video was top 10 for who knows how long. Legendary.
yeah he confused me with saying nothing on the album was big radio hits. All of those songs you mentioned I heard non stop.
two words is best on the album
is it just me, but never let me down is my top three on the album?
@@Rank17Legendsame underrated
"Through The Wire" was such an important first single off this debut cause it helped introduce the backstory of Kanye's accident to anyone who was just discovering who he was. Then, they could listen to the album and catch all the different references to the incident in the lyrics of the tracks that precedes "Through The Wire" and appreciate on another level how dope and creative some of them are
Especially the Emmett Till reference that caught me by surprise. It’s a real sad story if you know about it.
Such an important song for hip hop. Period.
@@black_bandit1084 oh god, I did not know Kanye added Emmett Till
For the future it would be dope if you gave a little bit of background about the album beforehand too. Like when you guys do 808’s talk about how its all about him grieving the death of his mom, and on Ye how he was going though it mentally at that time
Man i hope he sees this comment, the lead up for all the albums plays such a role in the greatness of them.
I was thinking the same thing, especially with 808s. Kanye lost his mother, his fiancé ended their engagement, his album was having pretty mixed reviews, more so negatives for most listeners. Also can’t forget his studio sessions in Hawaii. Just an interesting chapter in Ye’s career that isn’t touched on enough.
He’s obviously going to talk about that
Or when Kanye was public enemy number 1 towards the lead up to mbdtf after the Taylor swift vma incident
I don’t understand how it’s about his mother. I didn’t listen to the full thing but it just sounds like if it’s about Amber Rose
This album has such a special place in my heart. It was the turning point in my life when I fell in love with hip hop. I’ve seen so many Kanye think pieces/ video essays breaking down his work it’s kind of cool watching someone hear it for the first time. Well done!
Ik this corny but I just wanna say I had a hard day at work and came home in a bad mood, but I saw this video and it instantly put a smile on my face. I love these videos so much please keep going.
Have a good night man
Man this is super relatable
Not corny and also I love you
It aint corny bro, hope you're feeling better now
Have a good week bro
That high pitched "synthesized" flute in the back of Jesus walks is actually John Legend's voice pitched up high.
Wow I had no idea!
John Legend has a beautiful voice. He was fabulous I'm the adlibs as well
This is my favorite Kanye record. No one can do it like him. He’s such a pioneer of great music and he makes such gorgeous stuff. Love this album and I love this channel
Can't believe the real Julian Casablancas is showing his dad The College Dropout!
I almost laughed out loud when he said that. The similarities are there.
I don't know what Julian Casablancas looks like but I'm familiar with his music and so I actually believed him for a good 5 mins before I googled a pic of him lol
His dad, Jordan Peterson
The leather jacket bro was wearing in the ad really sold it😭
Maaaan I used work 3rd shift for like 5 years and this album got me through so many nights, Spaceship on repeat lol
Hope you got your chance to fly away. I’m going through that stage in life rn, hoping for my spaceship ride to come a long soon
@@mahazchowdhury4969 Me 2 bro, I relate so much to this album. Having a degree and all but not being totally happy with my job. So spaceship is my daily routine haha. I wish you the best of luck brother 🙏🏽
I worked at a bowling alley when this came out making 5.75 an hour. Used to sing spaceship to myself mopping floors.
Hope all you brothas get on that spaceship 🚀
Man. I've just had a really shitty day, and ya'll just made me smile nonstop for over an hour straight. Thank you so much
I can’t wait till he hears “Roses” from Late Registration. Such a powerful song
Yes it is... Very powerful 💕
Or hey mama. truly heartbreaking knowing his mom died soon after. 💔
@Tony Montana The sample on diamonds is nuts and his second verse is strong but roses is the best written and most personal song on the album.
@@k34l4nj5 depends on if it’s the remix with jay-z or not
@@ykwhattheysay.3176 For the longest College Dropout was my favorite, but as i started listening to Late Registration more ..... man it just hits different

I searched specifically for this comment 😂😂. I love it!
Thank you so much for these! My dad died 3 years ago and I would always talk to him about music and what I was listening to and see what he liked. He would let me know any Kanye news or other major music news. Watching these feels like my dad is here too.
💯🙏❤️
Glad you guys are doing so well with sponsors and a patron. Definitely the best reaction channel on RUclips
Cant wait to see him listen to Hey Mama, We Major, Roses, Touch the Sky, Drive Slow, Gold Digger, Heard Em Say.
Damn Late Registration is such a good album
Diamonds from SL better than all of them
One of my favorite things about this album college album series is that this music is for the middle class average American. Nearly everyone can relate, but Kanye really tailored it for those folks who have semi normal lives and live every day struggle of just trying to be a person living the best they can with what they are given. It's such a simple concept and yet he was really one of the first rappers to target this specific crowd and it did wonders for him.
Middle class??
@@SoulSearch11110 right? i would say this is much more aimed towards the working class
@@louiesharpe is middle class not working class lmao.
@@eliothummer8919 nah working class, middle class and upper class in the uk.
As an european, this is super freakin relatable
He mentioned showing him Anita Baker and I think that’s a great idea. I wanna see them switch seats and have his dad host some videos and show him music that he knows really well. Whether that’s rock or R&B or whatever he’s listened to his entire life, that would be really cool.
Genuis
This would make a great father's day special episode.
great idea
this would really turn the tables
I can’t help but tear up during these reactions because music is such an important part of my life and not only are you reacting to my favorite albums, but I never had the best relationship with my father and I would do anything to just have him sit and appreciate the stuff I love with me. You guys are seriously amazing and keep up the great work.
Are you me? Because I feel exactly the same
My dad passed away last month on the 21st. Cancer. I wished we did this too. Never had a good relationship with him. I did make him listen to Only One. I wished I made him listen to more.
DONDA DONDA DONDA DONDA DONDA DONDA DONDA DONDA DONDA
Same man. I remember where I was during all of his albums. For college dropout I was in 7th grade doing whatever 7th graders do listening to this album on repeat. His discography spans my whole adult life.
I love how your dad talks about what he‘s heard mit song when it‘s in the hook or just the instrumental, but as soon as someone starts rapping again he stops talking mid sentence and focusses on the lyrics.
I appreciate that so much and that shows that he‘s really interested in listening
Every time I hear All Falls Down and Slow Jamz it takes me straight back to 2004. The College Dropout will always be my favorite Kanye album.
Wasn’t even alive then and through the wire inexplicably makes me feel like it’s 2004.
I never ever comment on RUclips videos but the relationship you have with your dad and the joy you guys share doing this together is amazing and I had to comment. These albums I grew up with and watching you share this is an amazing flashback. Awesome video and Cudi Clan 4 ever!
thank you mathew!! much love man
Last Call is criminally underrated. It is certainly the last song on the album
your dad's open mindedness and appreciation for the music is so contagious! great video again. i got a kick when he called Twista "Twister" lmaoooo
hahaha yes this was one of my favourite moments. TWISTER! 😂 Love the dad's appreciation
College Dropout is definitely a classic album. "Through the Wire" was the first single and I loved it.
I remember hearing the through the wire demo played on pirate radio before the final version was released and it blew me away.
@@Jimmy-es8bc i’m gay
@@sxmeonn me to
Through the Wire was made and a random solo spur the moment single before the album was even a thing
Really feels like I’m sitting in the room with y’all, watching your dad experience classic Kanye with an open mind. This is such a pleasure
Back in high school my favorite english teacher asked me what I was listening to during one of our writing projects, I told him Kanye West. He kinda laughed at first cuz I figured he knew more about Kanye's wild public persona and didn't take him too seriously. I told him he makes good music. He didn't quite believe me at first, but he let me give /him/ a homework assignment that weekend, where I told him to listen to this album and tell me how he felt. That monday he came back and told me he really liked it. True story.
That’s fucking awesome! I hate how people gravitate towards his personality when he has like serious issues but like he’s a genuine person and has caused so much influence in so many peoples lives.
I have a similar story, two years ago my friend and I went on a road trip with our friends GF. We asked her if she knew ye and she said she hated him. We pressed further and the only thing she knew about him was slavery was a choice and trump. Literally nothing else. We spent the entire 4.5 hour car trip playing his discography and explaining his career and she ended up becoming a pretty big fan to this day
“Last Call” is such a brilliant closer to a debut album.
It hits extra hard knowing all that he’s accomplished through his career
This reaction is possibly my favourite ever reaction on RUclips. Outstanding, so glad you're both so open minded as alot of people refuse to accept how talented Kanye is. They just see his crazy years and dismiss his back catalogue. Respect!
I love how genuinely happy and proud of himself Kevin looked when he said "I'm learning". So nice to see him get more excited every episode!
27:15
The excitement these videos give me since they are released once a week reminds me of when I was a child and I waited for a certain day of the week for a cable show like Pokémon, Ben 10, or Spongebob
Huge Kanye fan here! Just wanted to add that “All Falls Down” is the reason I became a Kanye fan. It originally was a poem called “Self Conscious” and he performed it on Def Poetry Jam. Seeing him perform it as a poem was life changing for me. Sounds a little weird, but the die hard Ye fans know what I mean. His music has got me through the hardest times in my life and it’s gotten me through the best times of my life. Thank you for showcasing his work.
Also, plot twist, I am a die hard Billy Joel fan. It’s all about balance, right? He is an amazing artist and composer that I never see anyone react to. Just saying!
Billy Joel is iconic and I learned all about him through my dad!! He was the best and looooved music. I just listened to billy
Joel’s essentials album on Apple Music like a few weeks ago. So good!
It was not originally a poem. The song was already written, he just delivered that verse in a poetic style when he was invited to Def Poetry Jam
@@silewis9396 we can agree to disagree on that. Google is a good tool. Ty!
@@courte89 have you watched Ye’s documentary on Netflix?
@@Jxricho I only watched the first episode. I’m looking forward to watching the other 2. I’m assuming this topic will come up lol
Idk why but I started to get teary-eyed when they got to never let me down. The nostalgia and the feels in this video just hit different. Thanks for this amazing experience, really enjoy your guys' reactions.
Incredible song
It’s one of those for me too
Never let me down and family business both have me in my feelings now when I hear them
@@TasheaNashayJohnson Kanye’s top 2 songs of all time for me
Through the wire is one of Kanye's all time greats. The high pitch vocals in the back adds layers to the creepiness' and sorrow with Kanye's story in this song. It also feels like a triumph he overcame and really shows how he's a "champion."
Beautifully said
i knew Twista was gonna give your dad a great reaction. it still gives me goosebumps listening to his beatmatching. a great album and I wish i could listen to it again for the first time. Thanks for this channel :)
I’m a huge kanye fan, and have dove into his discography myself. But seeing you two look at into and shine light onto different aspects is so sick. With a younger mind influencing his father, showing him “what the kids think” is so cool to see and it’s so relatable. Bring a creative and visionary, something I struggle with is getting my dad or older people to truly understand
Same here, as far as diving into his discography. I’m almost done collecting all his albums
Mann nothing makes me smile more than you play Ye for someone who’s never heard the song and they vibeee THATS A VIBBEEEEEEEEE
EXACTLY BRO and then my friends ask “whats that song name?” and i feel like im passing the torch
Probably a top 5 of all time album in terms of being revolutionary! Loved to see your dad appreciate the talent and culture!
Also as a musician, I love that your dad has a musical ear and can pick out small instruments most wouldn't notice!
Pops is digging the comedic relief this albums supplies lol I love it!
This album still sounds fresh in 2021 (just listen to the autotuned verse on Graduation Day).
That's how you know it's an absolute classic
Honestly, kanye is just too good, even on his new stuff, he can’t do no wrong. It’s just 100% him
Lain and kanye!!! Great taste
Graduation Day would fit almost seamlessly on 808s and Heartbreak. 4 years ahead of its time.
@@mikelewicki1557 when i heard that i was so blown away, shit sounds heavenly
@@mikelewicki1557 two words would fit on MBDTF
the nostalgia that flows through my body when i listen to this album, holy hell. i forgot how 'Workout Plan' was every where when it dropped. i love that 'Workout Plan' is about the pressure put on women and how we are only valued for our looks.
The fact that you're vibing with good flows like that naturally now and they hit you the same way a good solo does means you're really getting a grasp on this hip hop thing lol
Really connecting with music in that way is so crucial to understanding a genre or artist's intentions fully on an emotional level, and your observations and feedback are spot on for someone who started about a year ago.
Which brings me to my point: it's time you listened to Death Grips.
I'm kidding, obviously they're worth recommending but only when you're ready. But you guys are on the path to be able to appreciate some really crazy stuff the more you do this, I'm really excited about the future of this channel!
@1:04:56 on Family Business when he talks about 'But you ain't have to tell my girl I used to pee in the bed' its a funny line for sure, but it also goes a little deeper. That whole verse is a reference to Ghostface Killah's "All That I Got Is You". That section of the song matches up so perfectly it's like it's a response from the other side of the family.
Ghostface Killah - All That I Got Is You
Check it, fifteen of us in a three bedroom apartment
Roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts was there
Four in the bed, two at the foot, two at the head
I didn't like to sleep with Jon-Jon he peed the bed
Kanye - Family Business
And you don't wanna stay there 'cause them your worst cousins
Got roaches at their crib like them your first cousins
Act like you ain't took a bath with your cousins
Fit three in the bed while six of y'all
I'm talkin' 'bout three by the head and three by the leg
But you ain't have to tell my girl I used to pee in the bed
Gold
Thank you for sharing!

When I tell people Kanye's my favorite artist of all time, people are perplexed because they have never heard of his older albums like College Dropout. His production is so rich and flavorful, full of amazing samples, and his lyrics are so creative and imaginative, being so honest and deep while keeping the whole thing light-hearted and witty. His first few albums changed my life in igniting my passion for music and hip-hop in general, so I'm glad you showed your dad this and he clearly loved it!
Ong people that just know him for his crazy rants and stuff need to listen to his discography in order, and understand how important it was.
Watching this just makes me so happy. It's the cutest shit dawg fr and I love this fucking album so much

Fr loved it so much. it released around the same time i graduated hs too so a lot of memories
It’s so nice to see Kanye get his flowers while he’s still alive. between stuff like this and jeen yuhs to see Kanye’s whole journey and how he has impacted people and music is beautiful! Loved this video!
i can't even describe the excitement i have for your dad to hear Yeezus, I think it's Ye's most genre bending record and seeing him enjoy Rodeo a ton which pulls a lot from that, I'm sure he'll love it. Hold My Liquor and Blood on the Leaves better blow his mind
I can’t wait to see him react to Hold My Liquor and New Slaves
So glad y’all doing his whole discography, incredible work guys
808s should be another banger from them
Shout out to you two kings for reviewing one of my favorite albums of all time. It’s awesome seeing dad vibing out to this album, very entertaining review. May your family be blessed with all the great things life and thank you for the great content.

I highly recommend listening to the original Through the Wire demos when Kanye still has the jaw wires on, they're incredible. Also, Last Call is still Kanye's best work lyrically "Mayonnaise coloured Benz I push miracle whips" is genius
I agree Last Call is a masterpiece, but if memory serves me right, I do think he used that Miracle Whip line in an unreleased song prior to that.

Through The Wire, and the backstory surrounding the song is so pure.
Can’t get enough of these reviews man. Good to see two genuine non ego people have at it just pure listening. One first time and the other already listened is cool as.
I don’t know if you tally the recommendations and then go from there but I think after the full proper release of Faces by Mac it would be really great to go through.
Debatably his best project as argued by the community from what I’ve seen over the years. Obviously Circles and Swimming would be great to do but I feel Faces would be great to start to do is semi-chronologically like you’re doing Kanye.
Keep em’ coming dudes!
Agree with Faces being a great recommendation. IMO I think that would be the best introduction to Mac for him as opposed to Swimming or Circles. Faces is the most raw and authentic version of Mac and his talents
Although I would wish they would get ahold of the OG mixtape version as the officially released recent version has been touched a bit and a lot of the samples used weren't cleared
@@mistayouneek Yeah I’m not sure if they like to exclusively listen off the vinyl, which is now available for Faces which is nice. Hopefully can grab it soon.

this channel never fails to deliver 👑
cuz he does what the viewers
I think you should have told your pops that “through the wire” was Kanye’s first ever single. Also that Kanye workout plan was a single that gots lot of radio play. Jesus walks also a single and got tons of radio play. He was on punked on the video set of Jesus walks.... but maybe the most important point was that Kanye was seen by his peers as just a producer. And that they didn’t think his rapping skills were good enough to break through. And how his sound really changed the sound of hip hop to soul sampling. Great video though love introducing people to Kanye who only know his more recent... craziness
Thank you sir! Great points made!
Yeah I remember Jesus Walks being played EVERYWHERE when it came out. The music video was played all the time.
So glad my older brother got this cd for his bday, because of that, I got to experience and grow up listening to this masterful discography.
Kanye isn’t for girls🥱🥱🥱. I’m joking, I’m glad you had such a great experience with his music
stopped studying for over an hour for this one, and i can safely say that was the best possible decision. What an amazing album, definitely tied for my favorite album ever with Late Registration
i remember my first time hearing the line on we dont care about it being your first time hearing this and i remember i was walking home from my high school and it got me so excited and blew my mind. it literally gave me chills and made me realize how even like 9 years after the album had released it was still relevant because i was just a young teenager going back to listen to kanyes music for the first time and seeing you guys do this right now is giving me that same feeling in a way. keep up the great content guys! sending my love from canada!
i started listening as a jr in high school and when i heard the first line on this album. first album i ever listened to from ye was 808s and heartbreak, but i went back in order and fell in love w each album. crazy how long Ye’s music lasts
Through the Wire will always resonate with me because I also broke my jaw and when I listened to that song it felt so nice to hear someone going through the same experience as me. One song that I can never skip when it comes on.
