the "wait, who's taking care of my farm" line is really one of the most hard hitting bars for me. the imaginary "Russel" got so caught up in his success that the farm that he grew up taking care of has become an afterthought. To me its a metaphor for the sacrifices we all make to reach our goals. Doesn't each and every one of us have a hobby, friend, loved one etc, that we've had to leave behind at some point in our lives? this song is fire, absolutely incredibly storytelling.
"Whos taking care of my farm" isnt really random. Its still within the Russell Westbrook on a farm analogy. He's thinking back to his farm and what his life would have been like if he never went out of his comfort zone and found the basketball.
I also thinks it's about how his plan had his whole family planned out, and now that he left that lifestyle, his friends, family, everyone from there is not in his life after he reached his heights.
Really hits harder now with the success of "Dave", the scripted comedy show route was always what he wanted to do so thanks to his blowup in rap, he's had an opportunity to go home back to "his farm"
I come back to this video of yours multiple times. Im sure you have versed up on the song and its meaning. Ive subbed for a while now to you because as a lot of these people agree, you are genuine. I see it in your face when that first bar hits you from this song because it caught me off guard too. I knew of lil dicky long before you discovered him, and actually discovered this song BECAUSE of your video. Been my favorite song for about 2 years now, and at 30, 2 years is a pretty solid streak. Id love to watch you react to Mo3 Soul Ties. 😊
Some random dude thousands of miles away listen to your reaction before listening to the song because I saw the title of the video. "What? I know them all what song is this? I've watched his FIR reaction videos (my favorite band) let's check this out then ill go listen to it."
In response to your statement at 6:53 it's because people before 2016-17 were trying to cancel him and plain out hating. Even r/hiphopheads silenced him off of a few upvotes from a post scandal. He even had to take down the song "white dude" on his channel. Lil Dicky's own music on his channel used to be not recommended on RUclips, only his freestyles which is obviously on a channel that isnt his.
@@sethmossberg1946 Drake is the most pop and lowest rung on the ladder of real rap!! Not knowing it was his beat is strange as I haven't been able to avoid him, but doesn't mean shit as far as knowledge goes!
@@stonemansteveiii3135 actually it factually means a lack of knowledge. Say what you want about Drake but that is one of the most iconic beats of the last decade. For someone who three chords in claims he can name not only an era but claim something so specific as to narrow down the kind of beat to a two year window comes of as bewildering that he hadn't heard that beat. 🤷♂️
@@sethmossberg1946 umm, I'm an old school hip hop head and PURPOSELY avoid anything that Aubrey is attached to. I don't listen to pop chick music and that's what that ho "makes".. Or MADE FOR HER. the only reason I know the name pound cake is cuz of reactors. This is LD's beat. Nuff said.
@@57kwest I'm an old school hip-hop head too who grew up in Queens, NYC. The actual epicenter of hip-hop. I lived it...didn't just listen to it. Literally was is in several freestyle ciphers in Lefrak City with NORE from CNN. Where were you? The thing is I have a wife and two daughters and we all listen to music in the car. It's too bad you are closed minded and arrogant. You're missing some pretty fire new music. Drakes catalog also has some bangers but you're too masculine and cool for it. I understand bruh...
60 yo white dude musician here , I know I'm late to the party but this is really strange because I hadn't subscribed to you and then I've been following some LD reacts, but from the first 10 seconds I realized I've seen you react to stuff till before, which is strange cuz typically I was on here before looking for Elvis Presley reactions and maybe some Led Zeppelin and stuff like that Lynyrd Skynyrd now and then just cuz I grew up on that shit as a kid and it's hilarious to see people from another Viewpoint encounter this and relate it. And believe me I don't know a lot about modern hip hop but I was there when rap started and I've been a fan even as a white boy since the beginning, not crazy into it but certain things I would obsess on over time. The last ones I really into or of course Snoop and all that but things like Blackalicious and most deaf and I don't know just around the edges of things it seems. But there's something about this reaction man, you just break it down and I love the fact that you don't feel the need to stop and break down every single bar. I think it's impossible almost this guy has so many layers to his triple entendras and rhyme schemes and cadences and Mix-Ups with his flow and all that stuff but he's smart and funny and it's just an interesting situation. But somehow you are right on top of it man. And I love the fact that you actually stop it comment and then rewind a little bit to let us get back in the flow. I've seen some of these Reactions where they're just so intent on breaking down every bar and I love that, but then they just continue right where they left off and you lose the flow. The bars are important but the flow is really important to me as a musician. Hats off sir.
The whole Russel Westbrook story was an analogy of his music career. Basically saying that he could have continued on the normal path, but discovered he could rap and decided to follow that path. Same as how in the story Russel could have lived his life as a farmer, but found basketball and his new passion.
@@lamardavis688 Yeah dude. I scrolled down to make sure someone hadn't said this already. That line always hit me hard. We gotta pick a path, whatever that path is. It's especially rough when you're already on a path then you go off on another one. That old path doesn't leave us. We can still miss it without regretting leaving it.
@Giannis Antetokounmpo haven't heard of VibeVilla but I'll check him out. Check out Stevie Knight. He's hit or miss but he has great breakdowns sometimes. KnoxHill is a rapper who's not bad himself but he does in depth reactions. I watch the full videos because his input is interesting but he can turn a 6m song into a 20m video but it's all usually entertaining. Same with another named WeSkeem. Everything I came to say was already said. I'm impressed
This is why I roll my eyes at people who think IM the clown for not liking rappers with no bars. Like, it aint SUPPOSED to be all rhythm. that's disco.
Lil D is perhaps the most well-rounded hip-hop artist in the game, so your list that includes him in your top-5 alive appears to be appropriate in my humble opinion. Solid reaction, no complaints.
@@ballersd7233 bro Wayne ain’t close in that convo, Nas (one of my favorites) hasn’t been relevant for 20 years, and as for Drake and Jay go listen to Pound Cake (what this beat was sampled from) and compare the two. Eminem, J. Cole and Kendrick are up there for sure, but can’t think of any others that can touch LD.
@@jimjim8383 you’ve obviously never listened to Wayne if you saying he’s not even close in the convo that’s comical Lil dicky wouldn’t even have word lil in his name is it wasn’t for Wayne
@@ballersd7233 His name is literally a joke about his dick, and it’s a blast at all the lil’s out there. Lil Wayne makes catchy pop stuff, if that’s your bag then hop in, but lyrically he’s trash. Lil Dicky puts out a lot of goofy stuff, but his word play and delivery is fire. If you need something with some more Street on it check out Mysone. Similar word play but a vicious delivery.
This is one of the only songs that I have ever encountered where you could read the lyrics without the song and understand the story he was telling in full. It is the greatest piece of poetry I have ever heard come in my own lifetime.
i have been waiting for a song to dethrone this as my #1 of all time for probably 2 or 3 years, but goddamn the 9:00 - 9:30 verse literally makes me cry how good it is. HOW.
I love intelligence. That's why I love your reactions. Your comprehension of not just the cadence and hip hop but his word play and flow. LD is one of my all time favorites. One of the best songs ever
I got chills watching you discover this, I stumbled on this and Mr Byrd 8 years ago... it should be considered a rap masterpiece and you help me discover it one more time myself. Cheers.
You haven't heard of lil dicky before because he has always been under rated. lyricism fell to the wayside for mumble rap which I will never understand. Lyricism has always and will always be king
Great analysis and reactions enjoying your channel. Agree with the others, Make belief is one you should check out. Also, how can you sleep ft the game is a different side to him but just as dope.
There’s a whole world of music out there man. hard to hear everything, this is whats cool about youtube, one fan of yours may suggest somethin youve never heard and now youve been introduced to it. i love it.
"Molly", "The Cypher", "Lion King", "Sports", "Earth" are all really awesome songs from Lil Dicky, I hope you do a day just on lil dicky cause I'm definitely gonna be on those lol
It is extremely refreshing to hear an actual first time reaction to any song. I think that a lot of reactions aren't actually first time listens. That honesty is awesome. This is the mark of a great song. When you can listen multiple times and there's something different to hear each time, different dots to connect. Knowing that he was gonna look up the lyrics immediately, listen through again and realize he missed things in the first listen. Knowing in retrospect the source of the beat and parts of the concept of the song. But he posts the first original reaction anyways. That's real shit.
I get that this doesn't even have a thousand views but this might be the best video that I have seen from a reaction channel. This is the most lyrically deep scheme driven verbal masterpiece that I have heard and I'm a huge em fan
I was looking forward to this 😁 Not disappointed 🙌🏾 Watching your journey with Lil D has been enjoyable. I look forward to to watching more & the harry mack too.
1:24 My dude hits the J and yet blows out NO SMOKE 💨 talk about “Holding it in” !!!! Also, I had heard this song very few times however DEF vibing to this track and would have never guessed it was by Lil Dicky !
Dude!, you're freakin' amazing. I love lil Dicky, I watch a lot of these. You're spot on with your analysis, you catch most of everything, and you're super easy to understand and vibe with. Awesome channel you got going, solid start in subs, you'll make it, I can feel it. Keep at it bro. Enjoy the ride.
I've been speaking of his talent for years. When I listened to this 4 years ago he was at 2 million views on Russell Westbrook on a farm. You should listen to the Cypher by him.
11:00 - 11:10 Lil Dicky was saying that the GOATS of the game have to show Russell no mercy, so they look like a dick for playing him like a pro. But Russell doesn't submit because he knows this is his time to shine, just like Lil Dicky has to stick on his path to shine. Some serious word play and definitely shows LD has got the rap game flipped upside down right now. He's a genus and i'm glad you're getting into him.
He's saying Russell looks like a dick. "So this goat-owning MF look like a dick" that's a double - he's owning these goats on the court, and he's got a farm so he owns goats. "But even tho Russell knows that (he looks like a dick for owning these goats on the court) he doesn't submit."
I’m so happy that you want to go down this LD Road. For Lyrical - Bruh, The Antagonist, Make Belief, The Cypher, How can you sleep ft. The Game and then Truman is my favorite, especially if you watched the Truman show For funny but still good - Too High, Classic Male Pregame, Save dat money, White crime and Work Loved your reaction man! I hope you react to more of him. He’s in my top 5 for sure!
i got to meet him more than once. so down to earth, even though i was the last person to the meet and greet, he took his time with me asking my opinions and shit! this song is one of his tops in my opinion.
The line you missed when he said "the goat look like a dick" is in reference to the previous bar where the "goats" are being hard on Westbrook and the newcomers cause to them ball is life. Basically saying the GOATs are being dicks to Westbrook and the newgen.
Double entendre and the bar is "the goats been all in since they was kids, and this goat owning mf look like a dick" cuz he was a farmer in the story , probably owned acouple goats on the farm , and then the meaning you said too
Make belief is another fire ass track of his that really let's you inside of his mind. Off of this mixtape as well. Honestly between this, Molly, make belief, and antagonist, you get a full picture of what he's thinking and the struggles he's going through to achieve his goals and aspirations
RIDICULOUS that this man has not heard this song. He would fucking lose his mind to Make Belief and he would actually understand the chorus which I’ve never heard anyone ever mention the point of the song a make believe can’t make belief
Everyone reacts to his newer stuff, check out his old stuff from the So Hard mixtape like Ham or white dude. Or attached at the hip. That’s where he started
In the end he says "who's taking care of my farm. I really loved that farm.". Normally, I would leave that line for face value, however, Dicky comes out as surprisingly and oddly deep and thoughtful. I think the farm is still part of the original analogy with his life, referring back to RW farm is meant as his life before the career. We learned in his song "Molly" that he had to choose between his rap career or his long term love. He obviously went with his career as did RW. So, without this coming out the wrong way, his girl, and what likely would have been a normal life I believe, would be his farm. "Who's taking care of my girl. I really loved that girl.". Or I'm way too high and need to put down the tablet.
the part where you got confused was where he played around GOAT (greatest of all time), goat (farm), and kid (a baby goat is called a kid, also he's the rookie)
Got dammit dude! I'm right with you on the pause ⏸,,, like jeebus man.. literally my head n my mind man, bobbing like a bobblehead, &I'm 3rd eye 👁 blind man 👨🦯 like Dicky got dem bars that make you wanna rewind man...

You are my new favorite reaction channel man you doing your thing also.
oh for sure! i always tune in for LD content! do literally anything haha
the "wait, who's taking care of my farm" line is really one of the most hard hitting bars for me. the imaginary "Russel" got so caught up in his success that the farm that he grew up taking care of has become an afterthought.

exactly my interpretation
It's the correct interpretation.
This is why LD is hundreds of levels above most in the rap game.
this is the way
"Whos taking care of my farm" isnt really random. Its still within the Russell Westbrook on a farm analogy. He's thinking back to his farm and what his life would have been like if he never went out of his comfort zone and found the basketball.
Had the same thought. It was super purposeful as a 'what if'
I also thinks it's about how his plan had his whole family planned out, and now that he left that lifestyle, his friends, family, everyone from there is not in his life after he reached his heights.
Yup exactly
He was too high lol
Really hits harder now with the success of "Dave", the scripted comedy show route was always what he wanted to do so thanks to his blowup in rap, he's had an opportunity to go home back to "his farm"

Do these ones, they are in the same musical vein was this one. You will enjoy them I promise.

Been waiting for this one yes!!!!!! Thank you patreon
His Funk Flex, Sway in the Morning freestyles and his song "Sports" is a must

This song is inspirational man.
I remember dropping this in more than one of your comments. I knew you would apreciate it. 🔥
So happy you reacted to this one :D
You just became my favorite reaction channel by having the balls to place Lil Dicky in your top five rappers alive. SUBSCRIBED AS F@*k
I get that this doesn't even have a thousand views but this might be the best video that I have seen from a reaction channel. This is the most lyrically deep scheme driven verbal masterpiece that I have heard and I'm a huge em fan
Been waiting for this one!! Great content brother!
9:45 Boyd, that breath. 😂 I have to admit I didn’t expect you to react this way, but you completely surprised me. Respect, bro.
Holy shit I’ve been binging your Lil Dicky reactions all night. Love your thoughts on his music
F for not knowing it was the Drake beat, but great analysis of Dicky’s words!
Great reactions my dude as far as more Lil Dicky you got
The Antagonist,
And his Sway freestyles!! And any others really Dude is a monster!!

Great review thank you
Love the changing styles from this and bruh, quite talented and love your breakdown
Wow I am listening to it and had not finished, the Westbrook breakdown oh my god.....
Thanks for this review. I love LD and when other give him a chance it’s a good use of time.
North Carolina north north o e 🆙
Dude!, you're freakin' amazing. I love lil Dicky, I watch a lot of these. You're spot on with your analysis, you catch most of everything, and you're super easy to understand and vibe with. Awesome channel you got going, solid start in subs, you'll make it, I can feel it. Keep at it bro. Enjoy the ride.
He’s legit one of the top artist out there and his show is 🔥
The Antagonist, Molly, How can u Sleep, Bruh, Lion King, The 90's -All are fire, will not disappoint.
Yo bro I like your reactions
Can you react to acid raindrops by the roots
Top 5 is big praise! Love LD.
Bro you’ve been Grinding!! Great choice, this song is amazing
I'd love to see some Hopsin on your list! Lil Dicky is definitely in my top 5 alive!
How Can U Sleep (ft. Lil Dicky & The Game)
This!!
Thats a banger
Just started watching ur videos and love your reactions and also love the background in your videos too keep it up 👍🏼
I've been speaking of his talent for years. When I listened to this 4 years ago he was at 2 million views on Russell Westbrook on a farm. You should listen to the Cypher by him.

Can’t believe you didn’t recognize pound cake and the drake reference with the cover and nothing was the same
Just wanted to say you're the most well-spoken music reactor I've come across, up there with Mr. Fantano! Love hearing your knowledgeable breakdowns
You should definitely check out Crypt and Knox Hill
I’m so happy that you want to go down this LD Road. For Lyrical - Bruh, The Antagonist, Make Belief, The Cypher, How can you sleep ft. The Game and then Truman is my favorite, especially if you watched the Truman show
For funny but still good - Too High, Classic Male Pregame, Save dat money, White crime and Work
Loved your reaction man! I hope you react to more of him. He’s in my top 5 for sure!
One of his best production/concept wize tracks. I really enjoyed this reaction, and Dicky is under valued.
LD “How could you sleep” and “The Antagonist”
Other than this, his Cypher and Bruh are my favorites of his lyrically. He SNAPS on Bruh.
i got to meet him more than once. so down to earth, even though i was the last person to the meet and greet, he took his time with me asking my opinions and shit! this song is one of his tops in my opinion.
The line you missed when he said "the goat look like a dick" is in reference to the previous bar where the "goats" are being hard on Westbrook and the newcomers cause to them ball is life. Basically saying the GOATs are being dicks to Westbrook and the newgen.
Kidd is also a young goat 🐐
Nah, he's saying russell looks like a dick owning these fools who been doing it forever, but he keeps going
Double entendre and the bar is "the goats been all in since they was kids, and this goat owning mf look like a dick" cuz he was a farmer in the story , probably owned acouple goats on the farm , and then the meaning you said too
2023 and this still one of the most creative rap songs ever made
Hell yeah glad to see you reacting to one of his more serious songs... Can't wait to see you react to Bruh..
Make belief is another fire ass track of his that really let's you inside of his mind. Off of this mixtape as well. Honestly between this, Molly, make belief, and antagonist, you get a full picture of what he's thinking and the struggles he's going through to achieve his goals and aspirations
RIDICULOUS that this man has not heard this song. He would fucking lose his mind to Make Belief and he would actually understand the chorus which I’ve never heard anyone ever mention the point of the song a make believe can’t make belief
I suggested this 7 times and finally!!! Thanks! Now Antagonist! That’s one will blow your 🧠
Damn son, you've come a long way since smoking a blunt on the vid. I am so happy with how far you have come.
How Can You Sleep - Lil Dicky ft the Game!!!
You’ll love it
First time hearing that one. That was sick. Subbed
Great video man, as usual. But you don’t know the Pound Cake beat? It’s goated and has been for a decade
LD worked at a marketing firm.
Firm=farm.
The antagonist is another must. Hes also got a cypher that most people dont know about.
his line about who's taking care of my farm was not random. its a reference to not forgetting where you came from.
Really scared by lil dicky is amazing too, great reaction!! Fav by far
yeah bro i think he leveled up for sure!!
If everyone introduced vids this way I'd actually subscribe... great content sir
My favorite song of all time, and one of the best songs of all time even unbiased.
This is without a doubt my favourite song that dicky has done
You are right to be blown away; the man has bars like just about nobody else lately...
Lil Dicky Cypher is another one of my favorites behind this song.
Great job bro
Lion king, the cypher, flames, growing up in the 90s
Best reviewer on RUclips period
thank you bro you made my month
This is my fav song from this man it's just crazy.
IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY WHEN PEOPLE DISCOVER LIL DICKY!!!! If you haven’t heard his Freestyles on Sway, for sure give those a listen.
7:25 💨🤯💯 Perfect timing right before LD lays out his analogy
Lil dicky brought me here 👏
Subscribed 👏

Everyone reacts to his newer stuff, check out his old stuff from the So Hard mixtape like Ham or white dude. Or attached at the hip. That’s where he started
In the end he says "who's taking care of my farm. I really loved that farm.". Normally, I would leave that line for face value, however, Dicky comes out as surprisingly and oddly deep and thoughtful. I think the farm is still part of the original analogy with his life, referring back to RW farm is meant as his life before the career. We learned in his song "Molly" that he had to choose between his rap career or his long term love. He obviously went with his career as did RW. So, without this coming out the wrong way, his girl, and what likely would have been a normal life I believe, would be his farm. "Who's taking care of my girl. I really loved that girl.". Or I'm way too high and need to put down the tablet.
the part where you got confused was where he played around GOAT (greatest of all time), goat (farm), and kid (a baby goat is called a kid, also he's the rookie)
Got dammit dude! I'm right with you on the pause ⏸,,, like jeebus man..
literally my head n my mind man, bobbing like a bobblehead, &I'm 3rd eye 👁 blind man 👨🦯 like Dicky got dem bars that make you wanna rewind man...
This is my favorite, great reaction
You should check out “Molly” - another dope departure track from LD.
Yo - How can u sleep & Molly are incredible
