Guılherme Scherbatsky Then say his/her name don’t bring up the race. People like you guys is why segregation in all aspects exist, trying to find ways to value a race or a gender by saying “they invented this” , when even if they didn’t invent anything they should be considered worthy. it was one person or a group of people who created it not black people in general. Don’t generalize.
@@laug1576 Black people are responsible for creating the majority of music genres that exist today. Black people also often get generalized to a specific type of music (like rap and r&b) implying that's the only type of music black people have offered to the medium. So I do think that it's important to acknowledge that black people are the trailblazers of all things music.
Darien Ebron i don’t think it’s important to say “black people did it” but rather mention the specific person who did it. Like that you avoid someone saying “but the white man did this” it’s just a stupid reason to validate a whole race
He was a huge fan of her E.P. and gave it a 10/10. He was expecting a similar pop sound but disappointed the experimental aspect of Sawayama. He's a fan anyways.
Lester Norm big fan of hers! Even loved a few songs on this album (XS, STFU). I wouldn’t quite say a 10/10 with the EP but it’s stellar! One of my favourite EPs ever
It’s so great to see that Rina included reactions of people who were less positive about the album than the majority of us are. Shows that she’s a true artist with integrity who can take constructive criticism.
Honestly, Amanda is the reason why I stan you in the first place. I`m so happy you included her in your reaction video, she`s awesome! Also, I think that the genre mix is what makes your album so special because you did it so well, they work so well together. And because of that, I think it`s actually cohesive. All songs explore a certain topic and the topics blend very well with the genres. And as an English major, I strongly believe that the mix of personal topics and political topics in such a cohesive way is what makes any novel, poem, film, and album for that matter, a work of art. The mix gives depth and colour to the album. It elevates it. And I love your boldness in combining such different genres, it was definitely worth the risk. I honestly don`t know what that guy was expecting from your album, but personally I would have been disappointed if the album wouldn`t have been the way it is now. So keep listening to your gut, that never fails you.
love how she takes criticism in a good way, another reason to stan. love the album so much, has been on repeat this quarantine. it deserves a grammy for sure. ily Rina!
To me, SAWAYAMA was not a perfect album per se, just a couple of flaws but I disagree with the guy who denoted that the album was completely incohesive when she very clearly put a transition on much of the song's beginning, such as from the end of the chosen family to beginning of snakeskin for example. Despite the stark difference in overall song genre and sound, it wasn't just calm soothing vocals, then striking ecstatic pop but instead, there's a transition that gets you ready for the change. I respect people's opinions but 5.5 is a stupid rating on any basis!
I was obsessed with 'Cherry' for such a long time, realized you released an album and queen... you slayed me with Dynasty, immediately fell in love with the album.
This album was the first album in literally over a decade that I can recall where I was completely captivated and every song had a place, a place that resonated deep with me while some were just pure joy to listen to. Let me preface this and put how much emphasis on the fact that this woman deserves SOOOOOOOOO much more attention than what’s been given. Truly remarkable in the craft and in her own lane. A little something new and a little something old, I love it I love it I love it!
I learned about your album from Amanda. I went to listen to it myself halfway through the video and I was slayeeeed. I didn't stop listening it to 2 weeks straight. I'm sorry but not really.
“there’s no pop music without black people” YESYESYES they brought EVERYTHING to the table when it come to music. we should be thanking them more often !!!!!
has absolutely nothing to do with being from the UK or not. Some people are just too incompetent to look below the surface, even when that surface is grape skin thin.. I mean just the title of the song being "xs" (excess) is such a clear indicator of what she's really singing about.
I became a fan immediately after hearing STFU and then XS!!! Sawayama has been one of the few albums I been listening to repeatedly from beginning to end lately. I loved almost every song from first listen. I’m really happy I discovered your music especially during this dark ass time
My first impression was wow. Second: WOW. And the third one like: HOLY SHIT WOW! This is the best album I’ve ever listened to and I still, after three months, listen to it on a daily basis! Thank you for sharing the most personal, truest and realest part of you with us with that album. We love you and appreciate you so much! 🥰
Connor Mortifier but he also “clearly” says after discussing the EP he was disappointed the album wasnt pop. but even if you’re right, critics are meant to be unbias 😂 you might wanna tell your friend to only review metal if hes gonna diss other music for being the wrong genre.
Kesha InMyCasa okay fine I’ll admit it, I was trolling this whole time lol, he actually is a good friend of mine and just wanted to poke a lil fun at him 😂
as soon as I saw this I HOPED and KNEW Amanda BB's review had to be in this. Her video was the pushing factor in finally taking the plunge to listen to Sawayama and I should've done it sooner.
It’s refreshing that she exposes herself to negative reviews as well as the positive ones..PR people usually only want to expose the artist to universal praise.
Really appreciate that you showed criticism and respected where they were coming from. I personally love the genre clash whilst keeping the through line all about family and exploring what that means. So impressed with this Album! X
It ain’t a mess!!! Why does genre have to tie everything together? SHE ties it together. I think it’s a masterpiece of unique expression of a real person.
The fact that you are willing to leave in potentially negative reviews in a video like this demonstrates how real and humble you are! Your album is incredible btw!
8:00 Rina's eclectic approach to genre means that every track won't be everyone's cup of tea. You might love "Chosen Family" but hate "STFU." But without her bold genre blending and experimentation we wouldn't have gotten a track like "XS," which is a song *NO ONE* else could have made!
talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it.
The first time I listened to the album I basically died. I was so obsessed with every song and it deserves to be listened to by everyone on the planet periodt.
I was not even a pop fan when I first listened to your album, and not only it became my album of the year but it also made me listen to pop again, i didn't feel represented or close to the artists (I was only a hiphop head at the time) Now I feel like i've discovered a whole new world!!
My first thoughts when I listened SAWAYAMA for the very first time were: hmmmm hello? Am I still alive? Or is it just a dream? Cuz these went beyond my expectations
I was honestly amazed when I first heard the album. Everyone was raving about it on twitter so i sat down, gave it a shot and was not dissapointed. A week later i bought meet and greet tickets for your upcoming show in my city
Cyber Stockholm Syndrome was my first introduction to you and it was through Melon. I listened to the EP and shared it quite a bit. I was super excited for it. Fast forward to Cherry dropping. That song is an all time favorite and it was in many a leap from the EP. It was so much louder and really fucking grand in every single way! Hearing your voice so front and clear gave me everything I needed. It over shadowed everything that preceded it for me. So I had such high hopes for this album tbh. Girl... I was not disappointed AT ALL!!! STFU came out around the time Poppy and Grimes were flirting with Metal and I was SO FUCKING HYPE to think that you would go into a more rock direction!!! Then Comme Des Garçons (my fav) came out and every gay cell in my body was partying and spamming the fuck out of it (still do). I shared it with EVERYBODY!! I love how you love when people notice the vocals because that was the thing that brought me in officially as a Rina fan since Cherry! And Paradisin' and "Who's Gonna Save You Now?" are super underrated. The whole album is amazing ♥️♥️♥️
first time listening to the album: i saw the album cover all over my twitter up until its release and decided to watch the XS music video (it was 6am and i hadnt slept) and i was literally BLOWN AWAY at how good it was and i literally decided to stan you just from that video. i decided fuck sleep lets listen to the whole album and now its one of my favorite albums of all time. like all my favourite genres in one
I’ve been a fan of A LOT of artists but never in my life have I fallen in love with someone’s music as fast as I have with yours. My gf first recommended your new album to me a few days after it was released and I was blown away. Dynasty just is a total masterpiece of an opener and is most likely my favourite song ever. All the songs work so well together and I’ve never heard something remotely like this. Also RINA (not sure if it’s an album but I’m gonna call it one anyways) is PERFECTION as well not a single song on there can be skipped!! Css is my favourite and kind of reminds me of dynasty in a way. I just can’t thank you enough for making such amazing music and I love you!!
When i first listened to the album I was like “this is what I was looking for in an artist” I was looking for versatility for an artist who can play around with instruments and we had a lack of it people usually play safe nowadays but u really brought it all it’s been 3 months and it’s still on repeat im so looking forward to your next project love you xx
I learned about you via theneedledrop. I am obsessed with the album. STFU and XS blew me away, but they're all great. You and Poppy should tour together. :D Thank you for this album, Rina!
SAWAYAMA is ART! I did like Dynasty on the first listen - I LOVE a strong opener XD also I have only listened to the needle drop for music reviews but I'm going to diversify who I'm watching after this vid - thank you!
Amandabb said something along the lines of “I know you’re not doing something right now so go listen to this album.” I did. And now I can’t stop listening
Hello Rina I found your music today :))) I'm a 17-year-old boy from Iran and just wanted to tell you how much I'm impressed thanks for the pieces of music this is true work of art.
My jaw dropped listening to Dynasty and I fell in love with you hahahah and then I just like danced around my bedroom to every single track. Love at first listen haha xxx
How am I only just discovering Rina Sawayama. Spent the last 5 hours listening to her music and watching her blogs. Her album is CRAZY, FIRE, NUTS, PAINFUL, EMOTIONAL. Bad Friend and Chosen Family made me cry and then Like The Boys and XS made me wanna be a stripper! The range!
one of the things that i absolutely love about sawayama is that we have so many different songs to listen to from a super talented artist so i get kinda sad when ppl say that they were expecting pop explicitly from rina..i mean girlie can literally sing anything and will be good,thanks for the record!! ly
as soon as i heard the intro of dynasty, i instantly became a pixel lmao (the reason why i gave sawayama a listen was actually because of the two gay matts reaction 😬)
I listened to this album a couple of days ago and since then I've been obsessed with it and with other songs on her discography (cherry is one of my favs). It became one of my favorite albums of all time in such a short time!
I love the genre play. My brother and I have been calling it "petal." For pop metal. Or "popal" because it's more pop 😂 I love it all!!! Amandabb put me on!!!
My first impression was: there you have an album for every situation - partying, getting reflexive, honoring truths about oneself, telling the world to fuck off. Oh boy, how blessed we are for living in the same time as Rina. A queen for the gays and everyone else.
this is what i call an eclectic album ✨💗 its a bunch of different genres that still somehow comes out feeing cohesive. ive been obsessed for days now 🥺💖
@@NotRealMusicRyan Hi am sorry I didn't mean that I dont like you that way. I really dont know you at all. I just dont like your impression about her album. She worked for like 2 yrs for that album. Lets be friend 😊Keep safe 😊
I was so weirded out the first time, but then I kept replaying XS so much because it was amazing!!!! Then the entire album grew on me and I loved réaliste big and catching little new details every now and then!! You’re unbelievably talented Rina ❤️❤️❤️
i remember listening to dynasty and narrowing my eyes confused at the first seconds but then it changed and before the chorus even started i already knew that this album was going to be fantastic.
I LOVE the mix of genres on this album! It was 100% the most amazing album I heard in 2020 and honestly, it was instantly one of my all time favorites. Gorgeous vocals, and wonderfully produced music. I can't wait for the next album!
the first time I listened to your album I remember how amazed I was! This album was exactly what the music industry needed. Fresh, Innovative, DIVERSE! Every song speaks to me and I love how experimental your album is! I can't wait to see you live once miss rona is over. Love you rina xoxo
what were YOUR first impressions of the album ???
It's great! I hope you know it's pop perfection!
the first time I listened to it I literally said "this bitch came to SERVE" and I wasn't lying
love you so much, queen thank for carry the pop on your back
GOOD GOD!!!!
I fell in love, its fucking beautifull

My jaw dropped listening to Dynasty and I fell in love with you hahahah and then I just like danced around my bedroom to every single track. Love at first listen haha xxx
Oh and I cried listening to chosen family for the first time :') too
RINAAA, BRAZIL LOVES U
Revolucionária do Synth Pop mds ❤️❤️
How am I only just discovering Rina Sawayama. Spent the last 5 hours listening to her music and watching her blogs. Her album is CRAZY, FIRE, NUTS, PAINFUL, EMOTIONAL. Bad Friend and Chosen Family made me cry and then Like The Boys and XS made me wanna be a stripper! The range!
her eye makeup is always so good
Rina is so smart, educated, and honest extremely talented. Or maybe it’s just her accent 🥴
I love how she reacted to my favorite 3 RUclips reactors 😩 Ajay, Ash and Amanda AHHHHHH
The Holy Trinity 🙏🙏🙏
"...but also Marxist"
I felt that. Huhuhu. We stan a woke queen.
When did she say it
@@bethenico 11:28 during the Two Gay Matts segment
Edit: added a few seconds
@@redundancycheck oh my god marxist Rina yessss
and she's a political science major!! We stan a educated comrade queen.
My queen Rina reacting to my queens Ajay and Ash
Love to see it
one of the things that i absolutely love about sawayama is that we have so many different songs to listen to from a super talented artist so i get kinda sad when ppl say that they were expecting pop explicitly from rina..i mean girlie can literally sing anything and will be good,thanks for the record!! ly
as soon as i heard the intro of dynasty, i instantly became a pixel lmao
(the reason why i gave sawayama a listen was actually because of the two gay matts reaction 😬)
Holy fuck her eye makeup is banging gorgeous-
I listened to this album a couple of days ago and since then I've been obsessed with it and with other songs on her discography (cherry is one of my favs). It became one of my favorite albums of all time in such a short time!
I love the genre play. My brother and I have been calling it "petal." For pop metal. Or "popal" because it's more pop 😂 I love it all!!! Amandabb put me on!!!
Thank you for putting BLM resources and talking about it at the beginning of the video! This was a great video and I cant wait to see more!
My first impression was: there you have an album for every situation - partying, getting reflexive, honoring truths about oneself, telling the world to fuck off. Oh boy, how blessed we are for living in the same time as Rina. A queen for the gays and everyone else.
I'm honestly shaken she would think Dynasty isn't likable on the first listen. That song made me go 'this album is going to be incredible'
I cried the first time I listened❤️ and every time after.
I love your profile pic, TASTE
I just heard your “Cherry” music in spotify just today and its been on loop like till forever. You are my ultimate idol now. 😍🥰😍🥰🤗
The straight guy friends comment, I related to that.
this is what i call an eclectic album ✨💗 its a bunch of different genres that still somehow comes out feeing cohesive. ive been obsessed for days now 🥺💖
her smile, her music, her makeup, her voice ARE ALL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS
The way she says “it’s crazy, innit...” I love her so much 🤣🥺
Casually saving the music industry
You are my new qween 💖💖
I'm been obsessed with your CHERRY MV so so much
this album deserves ALL the praise it’s getting, it’s such a good album ESPECIALLY considering it’s a debut album
Sawayama is the best debut I’ve ever heard
i lowkey had tears in my eyes when notrealmusic spoke bad about the album 😢
Me too, don't like him
@@kg-rx4pl same, he's so tasteless
@@kg-rx4pl damn
@@NotRealMusicRyan Hi am sorry I didn't mean that I dont like you that way. I really dont know you at all. I just dont like your impression about her album. She worked for like 2 yrs for that album. Lets be friend 😊Keep safe 😊
@@kg-rx4pl haha it’s all good. Thanks
confirmed comrade rina!!! aahhhgggghhhh i love you even more now which i didn’t think was possible 💕💕💕
AMAAAANDAAAAAAA!!! 😍😍😍😍
this is such a cool concept!!!! wish more artists would do this! mad respect
Melon is really coming through with these great recommendations, easily one of my fav albums of the year.
Don't listen to Not Real Music, he doesn't like real music.
I'm screaming-
He's tasteless period
It seems like he deleted the video
stop being a baby about someone not liking the same album you happen to like
what ELSE has he said is bad?
I was so weirded out the first time, but then I kept replaying XS so much because it was amazing!!!! Then the entire album grew on me and I loved réaliste big and catching little new details every now and then!! You’re unbelievably talented Rina ❤️❤️❤️
i remember listening to dynasty and narrowing my eyes confused at the first seconds but then it changed and before the chorus even started i already knew that this album was going to be fantastic.
Love ya queen 👑❤
I LOVE the mix of genres on this album! It was 100% the most amazing album I heard in 2020 and honestly, it was instantly one of my all time favorites. Gorgeous vocals, and wonderfully produced music. I can't wait for the next album!
the first time I listened to your album I remember how amazed I was! This album was exactly what the music industry needed. Fresh, Innovative, DIVERSE! Every song speaks to me and I love how experimental your album is! I can't wait to see you live once miss rona is over. Love you rina xoxo
NOT YOU REACTING TO QUEEN AJAY YASSSSSS 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
