- Can you be nuanced and unhinged at the same time? Asking for myself. I may or may not spit on the floor in anger at some point in this video,

“You go into a porta-potty and your socks are wet” is an incredible description
Sometimes my own imagination horrifies me!
your algorithm definitely got hit because I got stopped recommending your videos even when i was actively watching music reviews for new releases,, glad i found you again I got some catching up to do!
With the verse about the today show on denver, i feel like he was more so talking about how when you have a position of fame like he does and you're going to things such as the today show, you're more like a character (the curly headed middle class white rapper guy) that's designed to be entertainment rather than a person with a soul. I think this is something a lot of celebraties coming from all walks of life have dealt with and I'm happy he acknowledges both this and the fact that he's blessed to be in the position he's in.
Other than that i agree with most the other points you make on songs like it can't be and common ground; though i feel on gang gang gang, at least what he's talking about is more of a cultural "bro" issue and how everybody brothers until they aren't and not as much of a race issue, especially considering he talks about him and his old friends doing traditionally white activities.
Great video though, you're my go to person for albums i feel conflicted on. Keep up the good work 🙏
Thanks so much for shouting out Shawn Cee!! He’s absolutely brilliant, needs more credit and has such on point dry humor. I don’t care for Jack Harlow myself, but I always appreciate your takes and breakdowns.
Shawn Cee refuses to acknowledge RAP Ferreira so i banned dood he's gone
This morning I listened to the album, and then fantano's review, and wondered what does Skye think??? You hadnt posted yet and i was disappointed, so delighted to find it later today. I really enjoyed listening so thanks, but have to disagree with you on a few points.
Firstly, where im from people really *do* sort of relate a bit to hip hops sense of oppression, (I'm irish) because historically, the Irish were attacked by the British and a genocide was imposed upon us, our land was stolen, we were ravaged due to colonialism etc. Although the savagery doesnt exist anymore (unlike racism) we identify with the anger and hurt about the imperialism forced upon us - although we were white - we really did get treated like sh*t like other oppressed groups etc. We still feel generational trauma due to past misdeeds from others and in our own weird way, can relate to some of the real dark, confessional stuff you hear the likes of Kendrick talking about.
i understand that a white American that comes from privilege doesnt quite get that - and massive respect for totally acknowledging that and calling out Harlow where he whinges, and articulating your point so well. I have to think about that myself though as im new to Jack Harlow. Havent made up my mind about him.
Oh one thing - you're wrong about other's rapper's grandma's not having property, Danny Brown's granny had five houses - she worked for Chrysler, and she bought four to five houses. Not the norm in hip hop's fam but he has spoken about it.
You said that Harlow's song Blame on me, being as impactful as Father Time. i have only heard the former once, and it didnt pack a punch. But i believe you, the lyrics meanings are already up on geniuslyrics and fans are loving it hard +identifying. Will give it another whirl.
Thanks for reading my points, loved your review!! And you've got me thinking a lot about his song No Enhancers. I actually love HUMBLE but Harlow has taken it further - and you totally made me think that the very thing its criticising, is what it is perpetuating!
We really appreciate you taking the time to detail your ideas in context and thanks so much for your points about the importance of reading - so true. Never stop posting!!!
Not always positive. Good.
Hip hop is the genre that I know the least, and at the same time your videos on hip hop are my favorites! Amazing, thanks Professor Skye!
yeah its pretty much whipped cream,. (how about a review blp kosher?)
Like the criticism. I always pull some wisdom from your videos and apply it to my Endeavors I like your perspective of talking about your personal struggle I need to stop worrying about people relating to me and just speak from my perspective.
i could cry how does this man speak so many facts I need a breather
He knows....I appreciate u man. We need more like u to speak from this perspective so folks know how hip hop is used against my ppl
AVAA the yim yames shout was hilarious
Another certified professor Skye banger 🔥
There are some underground white rappers out there is creatively in rhymes, beats, sampling, etc. But again I recommend Aesop Rock and El-P even with Mac Miller, RIP Mac. The Underrated artist out there right now is Kill Bill The Rapper, Rav, Exociety, etc. This is great artist for today even their creativity on their arts music right now.
36:48 EXCEPT remember that Kendrick and Pharrell actually say “alright” properly all throughout the hook of that song on TPAB!!!! Ironically here, Jack uses the AAVE variation to….fit in???😭😂
Great point!
@@professorskye Professor Skye, I feel honored.
Jack Harlow is closer to Jim James than Eminem!BARS!!!
It makes it hit harder because the only reason I know of My Morning Jacket is because of American Dad 😂😂
AVAA ❤ I love your analysis and ur healthy ego! Very good
"Let me tell y'all what it's like, being male, middle-class and white..."
Been waiting for this for weeks. Thank you Teach!
I know who Jim James is 🙋🏽♂️
shoutout to "dead end hip hop", i liked their take on "jackman." and their overall opinion on jack harlow's music.
Absolutely, shout out to DEHH!
Marcus Smart over Larry Bird is an unfathomable take I have to say it
Marcus Smart is one of the Celtics players of all time
Aubery is the greatest white rapper ever
Day 120 of Asking you to Review Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youth
"It Can't Be" is such a strawman argument against white privilege despite his commentary on "Common Ground" ☠️
That’s why this project is so dang interesting
I had similar mixed feelings after finishing my listen through. When I heard Common Ground as the opener I was genuinely surprised and shocked. I was hoping it was going to be conductor for the rest of this album, but it was just a passenger on these bumpy ass tracks. I enjoyed Denver, and while sonically, I didn't enjoy Blame On Me, I did think it was very vulnerable and relatable in terms of lyrical content. When I heard It Can't Be and Enhancers, I easily had my least 2 favorite tracks. I had that same bewildered feeling of "Didn't you just open with Common Ground?" Such a confusing tracklist. Not sure how these were cobbled together. Did Common Ground come later into the album mode creative process? It's just hard to wrap my mind around. Surely even he would have seen this before they shipped the album. Unless he doesn't have control of how his projects are shipped at this stage. So many unknown variables that really just make me scratch my head with this one.
What are you issues with No enhancers?
Hobby, picked up in the lobby? Sounds familiar 🪵 We see you Prof Skye
This is the best on RUclips
To Rap Jesus “Don’t call me Jesus” Kendrick Lamar 😭😭😭🤣🤣
I hope this didn’t go over people’s heads!
please never start editing
Professor Skye IS Hip Hop. Realest breakdown of Jackman.
You are a part of the culture now man
Jack's next album should be called Son of a Bitch 😂.
We are all waiting for his mixtapes Newsflash Buddy and Hold Your Horses 2
Professor Skye is the best authority on white rappers; being a fan of white rap.
A little pointer: I know it is your personality, but when you make a hot take, just make it. Please stop saying, “I know what you’re gonna say” and qualifying the take so much. Just make the take and states ur reasons please.
It’s cringy and places more emphasis on ppl not being upset rather than ur actual argument.
Very cringy
If you know it's his personality then either you get over it or you stop watching. Don't ask people to change inoffensive character traits for you. You're not entitled to that
I don’t see the point of this doesn’t it seem more intelligent and present to be aware of both the biases that shape his hot takes and how the reception to such a take would be, thus including it in his initial description, it just shows he’s aware of the impact of the statement
What a woke wanchor
