Not sure if you caught the bar on " On & On " When he says " I guess there really is a heaven for us hip hoppas , i really miss my patna , but I know he wit the big poppa ( biggie ) 2 pacs , and the Big ( L ,as in a blunt) rolled proper , and thats a big PUN ( talking about the double entendre on the previous line and Pun himself ) " . Man is just a genius .
This song is by far the most heartfelt one on the album. It's brought me to tears plenty of times, especially since it reminds me of a close friend who passed. His lyrics are just so relatable and its amazing how he easily he can weave messages and stories in his music and still manage to use word play so effectively.
Joey isnt considered one of the greats alongside Kendrick and Cole because he’s not mainstream enough, him and big krit are arguably better rappers but make more underground music so never get thrown in the conversation
Idk about either of them being better than Kendrick but all three of Kenny, Krit and Joey deserve to be on the same level of mainstream attention, Cole on the other hand is a good bit overrated if we're being completely honest 😬
loistor Joey hasn't made enough s tier projects to put him in the same conversation as Kendrick. I listen to Joey more than Kendrick but you need to have some metrics for claiming someone a goat contender.
@@2013_Shox ? All three Joey Projects are S tier lol and I listen to Kendrick more and I think Kendrick is the greatest rapper of all time. If TPAB didn't exist, they'd be on the same level. Joey can't put out his own TPAB tho, he needs his own DAMN. to launch himself into the real mainstream
Ganesh Pacharu the difference is J Cole, especially old j Cole hits the soul and is very detailed with life struggles that we Alll go thru. Even the simplest ones. His singing voice in the warm up and Friday night lights you can just feel the soul in his voice. J cole ain’t the best rapper wordplay or lyrics wise nor the best singer, but idk it just hits. Maybe it’s just an east coast thing when it’s cold and cloudy and listening to “can’t knock the hustle” on my way to work. And I’ve been listening to Joey since the day 1999 released and Kendrick since section 80 days. J cole just hits different once u stop tryna observe his technical ability. But messi is miles ahead the best player of our generation lol
Joey is easily one of the best in this generation but I would love to a see a reaction of Amerikkkian Korruption by Capital STEEZ and PEEP by Pro Era. Much love great reaction as always
I was at such a shit time in my life when this album came out, listening gives me so.many memories. Honestly that time left me better off and more humble and appreciative of what I have. I continued partially because of this album, at least, it gave me motivation at the time. And still, gives me such a strong feeling of perseverance and hope that I couldnt replicate. I could honestly say this album shaped me and partially saved my life.
I'm sad he didn't have a big reaction to the "Got Dragon balls like my name was Vegeta" line, I freaked the fuck out when I first heard that 😂 great video as always!
Pro Era - PEEP the aprocaplyse!! - album by Joey's collective, full of similar amazing rappers including Capital Steez and CJ Fly - honestly think its on par with Joey's solo albums
He dont get the love cuz a) came into the game at 17 so was already slept on, on top of that he came during Chicago drills peak b) never chased radio hits c) his fan base is a loyal, what he lacks in commercial success he makes up with staying power
You might need to check out the Joey Badass mask off freestyle! Like how you said he’s a phenomenon. Joey used to be widely referred to as a rap prodigy. He was still in high school when he penned 1999.
watching this made me realize how well this album aged. for his first album he came swinging with the overall experience of the album. this aged VERY WELL
Yes, Joey season, can’t wait for you to get to Summer Knights too. You should review Tyler’s old stuff after this imo or whenever, interested to see your reaction lol
so glad you reacted to this! i was lucky to meet Joey on his B4DA$$ tour which was incredible, hes so chill and a lot taller than you think. Next beastcoast you gotta do a flatbush album
“And I remember sittin in my room all alone, staring at my ceiling fan, gettin in my zone. Mama was never home, woke up one morning papa was gone. Youngin lost so i ease my mind and pop in these songs.” Easily my fav Joey line...
Joey one of the best out here! Can;t wait for his next album. Please react to Mac Miller's Watching Movies with the Sound Off. Today is the 7 year anniversary where he debuted #3 on Billboard only behind Kanye's Yeezus and J.Cole's Born Sinner.
You're absolutely on fire with the uploads man! A recent track that I recommend you to listen: end of daze by earthgang, JID, mereba... It has a really strong atmosphere set to it and the subject matter is perfect for reviewing!
you have the best reactions on youtube, keep it up G! Here are some albums you must react to: Enter the Wu-Tang 36 Chambers - Wu Tang BetterOffDead - Flatbush Zombies 3001: A Laced Odyssey - Flatbush Zombies Peep the Aprocalypse - Pro Era Amerikkkan Korruption - Capital Steez Illmatic - Nas It was Written - Nas Pieces of a Man - Mick Jenkins Escape from NY - Beast Coast Evermore: The Art of Duality - Underachievers Rejex - Joey Badass Vacation in Hell - Flatbush Zombies Renaissance - Underachievers Indigoism - Underachievers
Can you consider Tetsuo and Youth by Lupe Fiasco. One of the best I envy how you're listening to these for the first time. Unorthodox brought Joey to my attention but the day I heard On and On 5 years ago, he became one of my favourite. New subscriber by the way
got to see joey do this live in NYC on 4/20 in 2015 along with the rest of pro era and domo genesis and it was one of the best concert experiences ever
Reason why Joey dont get recognized because he's not mainstream although he almost sign with Jay z on roc nation...u want really kno who he is unless u a true hip hop fan
He missed the triple entendre for the “Haezus view” hook. You can hear him saying “I can see you through my hazels, my hazels, my hazels. Hazel and In an eye color. Dudes nice
To answer your question on why is he not in the conversation.. he didn’t have any radio hits in America that reached the mainstream until All-American. Also his music is more appealing to hip hop heads and students of the game rather than the masses. If he would have been pumping out records over the last 3 years I have no doubt he’d be in the conversation with K dot and Cole. 1999, Summer Knights, and B4 da $$ are akin to OD, Section 80 and Good Kid/ The warm up, FNL, and Sideline Story. He’s still young he’ll get his recognition in due time.
Don't know if you ever listen to some folk but you should listen to Sufjan Stevens. He is one of the best lyricist of the decade if not the best. You should listen to illinois or michigan. Two classic album
We still need that preachers son by ygtut 🔥🔥 bro TRUST ME you will not be disappointed! Suuuper chill rap album. If you fw mick jenkins n rashad youll absolutely love it
Rocked the BOAT so WELL she jumped out and started PADDLING, I’m screaming LAND HO, I’m bout to hit for Sure, i MOTORBOAT it slow then i ripped a FLOW, I’m pretty SHORE/Sure like nice BEACHES..that water/ocean scheme was 🔥
B4DA$$ means "before the money"
It can also mean depending on your perspective "be for the money"
Before the money there was Love... but before the money it was tough
I always thought it could also mean b4-d-ass
Yh loool surprised jon didnt get that
Be for the money could also be interpreted but its obvious not when it's counterintuitive to his music's message
Paper Trail$ is literally one of top 5 favourite songs ever
Agree
But the best song of joey badass is on and on
word
Capital STEEZ: Amerikkkan Korruption Reloaded!!!! One of the best albums of the decade
RIP KING CAPITAL
I WAS GOING TO SAY THE SAME THING
Yes let's gooo ⚡
He gotta react to it it's so great yet underrated
yes yes yes
HONESTLY HE CHOOSES THE BEST ALBUMS TO REVIEW NOT ONLY THAT BUT HE REVIEW THE ALBUMS NOBODY REVIEWS

This album is in my top 25 all time across all genres. It’s just pure magic
Easily top 20 for sure man
A A hell naw, this and the og summer knights ep is his best work
I even go with the top 15

@@luisortega3090 Still my favourite Joey track of all time
also quotes steez line on dead prez “is there a heaven for us hip hop heathens”
One of my favorite album covers of all time
Why tho it’s kinda basic
@@jrsanti382 yeah but it's Badass.
Being able to watch someone actively appreciate an album as much as you do is so uplifting. Big up
Only right that you react to Capital STEEZ - Amerikkkan Koruption soon
Yeah exactly
He’s sleeping HARD on STEEZ🤧
Absolutely

@@dionb7584 exactly, he isn't anything special once you really start listening to artists of a real high calibre

Love seeing all the STEEZ comments
0:16 the album is pronounced “Before da Money” B4DA$$
Never realized until now. Damn
I don't have your patreon
But I'll get IT Just to recommend you listen to MICK JENKINS!!!
Specifically The Waters by Mick! My personal favorite. Talk about poetry sheesh
FACTS
Man this album brings me back to smoking sessions in 12th grade, so good
I was at such a shit time in my life when this album came out, listening gives me so.many memories. Honestly that time left me better off and more humble and appreciative of what I have.

You’re going to LOVE Wu-Tang
You would absolutely love flatbush zombies, just saying 🤷
Boris Van de Poel i tried getting him to react to them for months 😂
Joey does not get enough credit. My fav artist
Yes Jon !!! This is what is hip hop heads wanna see!! Come on Ab-soul control system next!!
1000 likes and 0 dislikes on the video at the moment! As a hip-hop head, your channel is the only one I consistently come back to! Keep it up Jon
P.S when Joey says "Don't drop an L", an L is also slang for a blunt
Pro Era - PEEP the aprocaplyse!! - album by Joey's collective, full of similar amazing rappers including Capital Steez and CJ Fly - honestly think its on par with Joey's solo albums
wouldn’t say it’s on 1999 and b4.da.$$ level but it’s definitely amazing
about time we have a lupe album reaciton....... the cool, food & liquor, tetuo & youth or drogas wave
💯💯💯💯💯💯 THE GREATEST RAPPER OF THEM ALL
Definitely tetsuo and youth - top 10 album of the decade!!!
See now THIS is a 10/10
Paper trails is incredible
He dont get the love cuz
a) came into the game at 17 so was already slept on, on top of that he came during Chicago drills peak
b) never chased radio hits
c) his fan base is a loyal, what he lacks in commercial success he makes up with staying power
You might need to check out the Joey Badass mask off freestyle! Like how you said he’s a phenomenon. Joey used to be widely referred to as a rap prodigy. He was still in high school when he penned 1999.
you gotta react to Graduation - Kanye West. lovin the vids though john
He already listened to it
He has listened to every kanye album
OnlyFlamesRudi on his youtube? can’t seem to find it
@@finnwesthead4064 no. He was a big Kanye fan before even reacting on youtube
This is my favorite album ever and I don't think it will ever change soon 🔥
"enter the chamber, get hyperbolic" that Dragonball Z line is FIYOR!!!!
watching this made me realize how well this album aged. for his first album he came swinging with the overall experience of the album. this aged VERY WELL
bro complete the joey season with summer knights.luv the content as always💗

I always come back listening to On & On when I'm having my depressive episodes. Love this album
you have to listen to the Summer Knights by Joey... One of the most criminally underrated mixtapes of all time!
i need to revisit this album again.. dope project !
i cant decide whether or not this or All American is his best album..
Thank you so much for doing Joey! Realest MC out there and doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. Please react to taboo by Denzel Curry!
I always get excited when I see you reacting to Joey Badass
Can you consider Tetsuo and Youth by Lupe Fiasco. One of the best
I envy how you're listening to these for the first time. Unorthodox brought Joey to my attention but the day I heard On and On 5 years ago, he became one of my favourite. New subscriber by the way
I never comment on anything but what you're doing is great 💯
Thanks so much
got to see joey do this live in NYC on 4/20 in 2015 along with the rest of pro era and domo genesis and it was one of the best concert experiences ever
14:43 I’m smoking and listening to this right now with you! Love the reactions JD KEEP IT 💯
He's so underrated, definitely should be up there with the gods
wait its sick how the timestamps are built in to the bar... great vid as always, Jon. Ur the man.
All Amerikan Bada$$ was one of the best albums of 2018
Jon stay taking Ws with these album reactions. Classics after classics after classics
Great reaction bro....btw the drums u heard on the song "NO.99" he sample it from Jimi Hendrix
In other words Joey is one of the best lyricist to ever live 🔥
Been looking forward to this for too long🔥🔥🙏🏻
Jon, the reaction GOAT
We need that Capital Steez and some Mick Jenkins
I really love your videos Jon and I keep binge watching the weeknd season. Love your reactions and god bless XO.
Yo you definately need to react to Enter the 36 chambers by Wu Tang. FOR REAL.
Reason why Joey dont get recognized because he's not mainstream although he almost sign with Jay z on roc nation...u want really kno who he is unless u a true hip hop fan
U got 1 Joey project left. Summer knights and it’s amazing as well!
I’m late to the party but you have a great perspective on his songs and understand why Joey fans are die hard
He missed the triple entendre for the “Haezus view” hook. You can hear him saying “I can see you through my hazels, my hazels, my hazels. Hazel and In an eye color. Dudes nice
More DOOM albums!! Operation Doomsday, Mm Food, Born Like This, even the Vic Vaughn stuff, all dope af!
At least someone reacting to joey bada$$ thank you
Been wanting this one since you started the channel. 👍 good stuff
Fuck it I had to subscribe to Patreon if we get this type of content uncut. LETS GOOOO
Hell yeah jon the slow glasses at 8:54 fit perfectly
JD, you heard any tribe called quest? The sample on no.99 is Scenario if I’m not mistaken, you should check it out
B4.Da.$$ means before da money! 🤑 even bars in the album title
paper trail$ been my favourite song of all time ever since it dropped
jon you should do an alchemist marathon! so many great projects! love the vids
Joey is the greatest rapper of this generation imo. Nobody tops him.
One of my personal faves ever.

Ab Soul - Control System, please man!
My guy Jon great reaction this album is top tier 👌
even the name of the album is a triple entendre, B4DA$$ (before the money, be for the money and badass) genius
One of the greatest album cover of hip hop history
Plz do Armand Hammer: Shrines! Or anything by Billy Woods (Hiding Places, Terror Management)
Derek Lopez I don’t think he’s ready for billy woods lol.. his lyricism is truly next level
We still need that preachers son by ygtut 🔥🔥 bro TRUST ME you will not be disappointed! Suuuper chill rap album. If you fw mick jenkins n rashad youll absolutely love it
Vince Staples - Big Fish Theory
Bacatea truth
It took me 3 years to actually hear it, but in Like Me he says "I'm pretty sure (shore), like nice beaches" and that's just such a fucking bar
Rocked the BOAT so WELL she jumped out and started PADDLING,
I’m screaming LAND HO, I’m bout to hit for Sure, i MOTORBOAT it slow then i ripped a FLOW, I’m pretty SHORE/Sure like nice BEACHES..that water/ocean scheme was 🔥
Must listen to the PEEP: The Aprocalypse mixtape by Pro Era. Flows are insane.
Like Me is still one of my favorite songs ever
lmaoooo 0:14 you saying Joey badAahs is hilarious
The 🐐 on RUclips
My mans not ready for Paper Trail$
