ive been getting a lot of heat for my comment about how his "lyrics dont mean anything" so i just want to clarify that it was a response to molly asking if "accordion" meant anything. DOOM himself said "theres not a big concept behind it, its like a freestyle verse". i didnt literally mean his lyrics in general are meaningless but i understand if you took it differently. either way, thanks for checking out the video ✌🏼
People take things too seriously sometimes. I truly appreciate that you have a sense for good music. I will be the first one to say that MF DOOM is one of the greatest and I am still yet to listen to his whole discog. Hes not one of those artist you can listen to in the background, you have to pay attention.
@StayBlessed47 how u gonna say he's tha greatest when haven't even heard his full discog lol smh ignorant asf... and not to mention all tha artist better than him that you obviously haven't heard of
for everyone asking why archie chose to start here - i actually wanted to!! like i said at the start of the video, i’m a *huge* fan of wordplay, to the point that i even wrote research into the translation of it, and archie had told me that DOOM is considered one of the masters of it so i was interested. i also already know and love special herbs so i wanted to hear him rap. and either way, i ultimately loved this album so not sure why it’s a bad thing we started here 😭😭 anyway thanks for watching!!
Having Madvillain as an introduction to Hip Hop is like putting on Avengers: Endgame. They will not get any references, nuances, they may not even the clichés of the genre well enough to keep up. Bad Choice
@@bruceleeds7988 That’s what makes it a great album to return to though. The more hip hop/ pop culture/ comic book/film knowledge you gain the more you can appreciate said nuances. No need to gate keep an album for its obscurity, it’s a great album with shit anyone can appreciate.
It was great to see your genuine joy and appreciation, reacting to different parts and the album as a whole. Since you're into wordplay, you should definitely check out Aesop Rock! He has a very impressive vocabulary and his raps are packed to the brim with sick rhyme schemes and next level metaphors. While his work is often criticized for being hard to decipher (especially his earlier records) one can definitely enjoy his skillful craft on a surface level as well. A good entry point could be "The Impossible Kid" as it is considered one of his more accessible records. Alternatively listen to "Mindful Solutionism" from his forth coming album as it displays his technical skills and wordplay in a somewhat simple and forthright way. Enjoy, and thank me later;)
What happened to me is after listening do DOOM for the first time I couldn't get into any new hip hop. Only stuff I had heard before listening to him. I don't think it's a bad stard but the bar will be set pretty high. If you dig wordplay you should listen to some Aesop Rock, too.
Bro fr, it's like getting limited rare item on early level in video game. It took me a years went into hiphop rabbit hole to find DOOM discography (thank you whoever had an argument about great lyricist back then lmao)
@@evaan9178 ahh it's hard for me to think about good first rap album to listen since there's a lot of other stuff that i haven't heard yet (i'm just a casual fan). But if i recommend someone for their first rap album, i would pick something like The Lost Boy by Cordae. For me, that album "well balance". Music-wise, it's sounds nice if you look for something to vibing with, lyricly, it's quite solid if you look for lyrical content, not too complex, but not too simple either.
@@mr.bigweld8138 im not saying lost boy is better album than madvillainy, i mean i would introduce someone around me into rap album with something that kinda "mild" rather than stuff that way complex like DOOM's discog since his discog require taste. Especially when i live where most people around me rarely use english in our daily life or even can't understand english quite well. Heck, im barely understand any word the first time i heard DOOM, it's just grew on me and getting better overtime when my english quite improved over a years and able to catch his lyrics (most of them still flies over my head tho).
This is my favorite reaction to any DOOM release ive seen. There are so many life long rap fans that dont jive with or see the vision in this project and to see someone completely outside the culture click with it and experience the same joy I get from this was a pleasure. This was the closest i have gotten to hearing the album like I did for the first time again. All time classic record, thank you for sharing.
You took, dropping her in at the deep end, to a whole new level with this one. I am still finding new stuff in his rhyme schemes today, that eluded me for over a decade.
we want MORE, Radiohead, Bon Iver, Ye, Travis, Nas + 200 more - yall have great chemistry, great potential this duo could be big, please continue - 2x times per week at least!!
this was my first rap album ever from front to back too. took me almost hlaf a year to truly appreciate it and now its my favorite of all time. glad that she could understand as much as she did or her first run through
And i wanted to mention that you basically gave her a present with this album, I’ve been listening to rap since i was a kid and it took me a very long time to stumble upon MF DOOMs discography. Been my favorite since.
DOOM is the Slang and reference King 👑! If you know you know, if you dont you Don't, until you do, if you do and if you never do then you'll never know 😂😮!!!
her shirt!!!🤩🤩 I saw the video of you guys reacting to agony and thought wow u guys seem cool i wonder if they like the strokes and then i see this lol
Madvillany is a juggernaut of an album but definitely not what i would choose to get into the genre haha. Showing someone madvillany as their first album is like throwing them into an ice bath lmao
There was a lot here missed from the songs but still good video! Just very very articulate, abstract, and advanced poetry for a first video. Would love to see you guys re visit mf or Madlib though!
OOOOHHHHHHHH when yall came to "Raid" I was like: Thats probably my favorite song of the album, I wonder why? And then M.E.D. aka Medaphoar came in. I absolutely think Wildchild and M.E.D. are my top ten rappers of all time when it comes to flow and technique. Wildchild espeacially.
What I love about the line where he doesn't end with "bitches" but instead "booze", he also STARTS saying "pussy" to obviously say he needs to get laid, but changes it to "psychiatrist" while pronouncing the first 2 letters PS the way you think you should when you're learning these words as a kid. It doesn't make sense the P is silent. But it still sounds like Pussychiatrist. 😂
Fun Fact! DOOM made the vast majority of his beats for future albums all at once and thats what on the Special Herbs Vol's. You can hear them elsewhere as well like on Ghostface Killa's album "Fishscale". Reacting to DOOM albums later is gonna be REALLY fun for you guys since you already know the Special Herbs Vol's. That should be fun!
Awesome reaction 👍 if y’all wanna learn more about MF DOOM I highly recommend a video covering his life and discography from the channel ‘Mic The Snare’ he has a series called Deep Discog Dive and his video about DOOM is freaking awesome it’s only 30 minutes but it covers pretty much his entire professional career and some aspects of his personal life
@@mollyfletchr just seen it. That’s cool but Doom is a crazy place to start. Even if you want deep lyrics or good world play Doom is still pretty esoteric. I would recommend “I Don’t Like Shit, I Don’t Go Outside” by Earl Sweatshirt. Doom is his biggest influence, I think you’ll like it more than Doom unless you don’t care about anything except lyrics/wordplay.
@@mollyfletchr np, you’re lucky you’ve never heard any hiphop yet…I can’t imagine what that’s like lol. Make sure you listen to “To Pimp a Butterfly” at some point, too.

As a big hip hop lover and a bigger DOOM fan… I can admit DOOM is an advanced choice for first album.
Op.doomsday is much easier imo
yes its not a good choice this is like the highest level, youll not recognize greatness if you dont understand it, right.
Totally. The problem she will have is that she may expect all hip hop albums to be this astonishing.
@@porti6181sip
specially madvillainy
bro just threw her in front of the Supervillain and said, "Survive"
Respect.

Personally I think it’s a fantastic start. What a wonderful first to have. So happy you were able to experience Madvillany.

She really picked up way more than I expected for a first listen. She has a knack for this!

It’s a unanimously appreciated album.
that's a wild first rap album to show someone jesus

Every time I see the Strokes I hit the like button
MF DOOM is an abstract lyricist it takes multiple listen to fully grasp what he's talking about in his raps.
Please please listen to slum village vol.2 next!
Please listen to DOOM's other golden albums: mmm...food, the mouse and the mask. I'm positive she'll love them.
That's the deep end you just threw her in my guy!!
This is how reaction videos should be, no need for the over the top bs facial expressions etc.
I love it that you don't look at her during the song. You're letting her absorb it with no tempering. No man handling. The mandarin mandalorian.
You should’ve had her listen to (mm food) or (36 Chambers).
I suggest, for wordplay sakes, Supreme clientele from ghostface
ya gotta do keath murry enigma rip DOOM
You threw her in the deep end with no life jacket lol
cool videos just subbed
what happened to the MM..Food reaction?
i would love to see an aesop rock reaction
Brotherman is lucky 🙌
Rest up mf doom krazy he died in my city I don’t trust that hospital
Personally I would throw her onto something like Flower boy or TPAB then see what she think next.
Awesome reaction 👍 if y’all wanna learn more about MF DOOM I highly recommend a video covering his life and discography from the channel ‘Mic The Snare’ he has a series called Deep Discog Dive and his video about DOOM is freaking awesome it’s only 30 minutes but it covers pretty much his entire professional career and some aspects of his personal life
thanks man! and ive actually watched it. we're a fan of his channel!
