What the group were saying is the guy who was hyper critical of the band for selling out, Was being a hypocrite. The guy was dressed in brand fashion drinking coke and buying the album. Maynard's issue with him is the guy lives in the western world, wears fashion and buys branded everything. Clearly enjoys being part of western culture. He has no right to call anyone a sellout. The line "I'm the man and you're the man and he is the man aswell. You can point your f%%%ing finger up your a$s!" Anyone who uses money is a sellout. Damn right he sells out, He writes songs that are important to him. He pours his soul into the music and he sells it for profit. Anyone with a job they hate or anyone who follows trends could be considered a sell out, We're all doing what we need to get paid and survive at the end of the day.
You got that right man! I hate the term sell out in which some mean it. Being successful at offering your product to people who demand it is smart business...if that means sell out then hell yea like he said they sold out long ago.
Holy shit!! She just completely deconstructed everything about this song. RESPECT!!!! 🙏🏼 I love you guys, cool as hell. I’ve been into tool since ‘92 and there are so many meanings. Thank you for legitimately hearing this. That was cool as hell
But incorrect. By saying he sold his soul to make a record (putting in blood, sweat and years) but you bought one, He's saying the kid in the 501's, with a dope beastie tee, in fashion, with all his expensive accoutrement, had no soul to give; he had to buy everything that he is. It wasn't about the label pushing them. This is about the irony of the copycats telling someone who is making the right moves, and finding success, that they're doing wrong and change is bad.
@@al4385 Nah dude, NAH. If you don't see how generalizing an entire race's way of dissecting media is stupid and problematic then well... Big YIKES mate. You should probably reflect on that. Instead of that, you will directly attack me instead of posing any sort of argument, so ill just wait on that reply, give you a like and let you take the L.
Super jealous. Alot of bands have came and gone but I have always fucking loved tool. I'm only 21. Wish I was an 80s baby so I could have explained all of this while it was happening
I've never seen someone get what Maynard is saying the first time hearing it. Great job. Hope y'all listen to more Tool. One of the greatest bands of all time
Hi Jay and Steph! Another OGT here! I always saw HWAP as a middle finger to all the whining fans that disliked Undertow from their first 2 releases. The band matured and expanded. They hardly went mainstream. Tool fans can be kinda nuts and possessive of the music. Can't wait for their next release in August! Favorite song to listen when drunk is Lateralus. "SPIRAL OUT, KEEP GOING!"
Hi Gail, that's a great insight and what I've always thought as well. As well as just a generalized discontent with what we'd call "hipsters" nowadays. Look at the song "Aenima" when Maynard says things like "fret for your figure and fret for your latte and fret for your lawsuite" as well as "fuck retro anything, fuck your tattoos, fuck all these gun-toting hip gangster wannabes" etc. Great album through and through and I am so stoked for the new one to FINALLY drop! 13 years in the making baby! Cheers
My take has always been that Tool are saying that EVERYONE is the hooker / sell-out. Everyone is also the John, and the capitalist society is the pimp that is gaining the profits when we turn our tricks. The breakdown: The opening lines kind of give it away. Maynard's lyrics describe a boy (likely a teen or young adult) that is described wearing name-brand clothing. It may have been alternative name brands at the time, but they were still name brands for a target audience. He claims that Tool were selling out for changing their music. Any musician should aim to grow and evolve, but many fans automatically accuse artists of selling out. So much irony having the Band be told by a kid wearing name brand clothes that they are sell-outs. Maynard goes on to state that the fans only know what the band has sold them. The fans consume the information the band makes available, but the band still gets to choose what information they supply the fans with, through their music and their interviews. While this song came out in 1996, this even now coincides with Social Media in today's world and with what Bands state on their official pages and feeds. Any writer or artist knows that when you make art, you are exposing a piece of your soul to create. You are expressing a bit of yourself in every work you craft. When Tool decided to start selling their music to the world, they were thereby selling their souls, a piece at a time. Maynard concludes with a statement about EVERYTHING you buy and wear being a product, and that ultimately we're all getting screwed by Capitalism, so if you can screw someone else by selling a product (like Tool with their albums) then you should do it, making everyone "The Man." He tells fans to keep buying records and sending them money. Go ahead and call them sell-outs, you still paid to buy their album and come to their show.
Dude when she said ogt was for gay or transgender people I was like oh no their not going to have any idea what this song is about but she got it immediately afterwards thank goodness
Omg I love you guys so much. I never watch these videos but this popped up in my stream and I was too lazy to change it. And now I can’t stop watching. I love the vibes. You’re both beautiful. Made me laugh.
This video was great. Loved it. Is the first video I've seen from you guys and I was very entertained. I'm a huge Tool fan. Have been for a very long time. It's cool to see your reaction to their music. Music, humor, and love are the things that bring us together as humans. I'm glad you are here. You got the gist of it Steph, almost immediately, which was great! Tool music isn't necessarily about smacking you in the head with what their songs necessarily mean, so much as it is an experience that opens up dialogue and your own consciousness in not only feeling the song, but applying those feelings to what the song may mean to you. As others have noted, the vitriol of the song was aimed at the fans of convenience, posers, who sit back and criticize artists who produce, saying they've sold out in order to gain success, etc. I'm less inclined to think that this song is a direct attack from the band to its fans, but more ask attack on those who say that they are fans, but really aren't. It points out the pitfalls of consumerism, especially when it comes from critical consumers who actually produce nothing but income for those that they criticize. The whole song is basically a play on words to point out the double standard and the real hypocrisy in fair weather fans, and to show them that they are their own criticisms. But you immediately saw that part of it. Kudos to you.
My first time seeing you two and you are reviewing my favorite band and one of their best songs!!! So awesome! Saw them again a few weeks ago on Italy (first time since 97!). Great take on the song!
I realize this reaction is a few months old now but I am just now getting to listen.. First...great job!! Steph...on point!! Second... would love to have a glass of wine and contemplate the meaning of Tool... LOL. Keep up the good work!!
You got it straight. The OGT was simply the kids vernacular of Original Gangsta Tool. You dead on read it well. IT was way cool watching you two grooving in synch as the song progressed into the sequence. Really loved this reaction video.
Ogt means (original gangster tool) which has two perspectives. One 92 first ep means he’s been a fan since the ep Two original gangster tool also means he’s acting like a tool and at the beginning of the song he's naming all the hypocritical brand name clothing supporting the man along with sipping on his coke that's a brand so he's also selling out
I'm sure that there are literally dozens of coments that sat so... but I'll say it anyway... OGT = Original Gangsta of TOOL! (OG fan... fan from day one) She actually ALMOST got it... she said "Original Gangsta, I don't know what the "T" stands for"... If she thought about it for just a second longer... She would've thought... "OH! The band's name starts with a "T"... OG...Tool!" :D
Btw your right about the song. That's the best description iv ever heard lol. And fun fact. I think the original lyrics were "sniffs of coke" and the record company made them change it to sips but I have no clue
Sorry I'm late to the party, subbed and liked. Steph, you got it right away, there are people who've listened to Tool for years who don't get it that well.
I love reaction videos. Especially TOOL reactions. As an “OGT” it’s almost a fresh take and peels back new layers to their music. I love ya’ll . Great insight . #subscribed
Smart smart smart, Steph!!!!!!! I found your channel while going to listen to this song and I'm excited to see your reactions to other songs, as well. Have a great day! Also you posted this on my 34th birthday!!
I just love y’all. Y’all are the cutest couple and y’all love music!!! Y’all wanna adopt a 35 year old daughter lol 😂-just kidding!!!yall remind me of my parents but much cooler.
You are awake I see. You nailed it. You have been my favorite reactions to tool so far! You grooving and got yo drink! You know what time it is! Liked and subbed keep it up :)
I can always count on you two for some much needed laughter. Thank you. You two deserve so many more subscribers then current. Will do my best to promote your channel.
Holy shit, I love you guys! Instant sub, and I don't sub to nothing. Steph is a straight musical savant over there, pegged the songs direction on the first verse. Y'all are a cool ass couple.
Wow... she got the message part way through the first listen of the song! I’m a fan Tool but it’s always taken multiple listens for me to hear the lyrics and not be distracted by the rest of awesome band. Much love
Smashing pumpkins, tonight tonight. 1979. Where the boys fear to tread. Lots of good songs from smashing pumpkins. Haven't seen many reactors react to them for some reason.
This is the first video in a long time where I’ve watched a video on a channel I’ve never seen before and subscribed while still watching the first video, this is so relaxed and chill, funny and interesting. Jay is a true gangster
Yesterday I was feeling kinda salty & decided to listen to every pissed off Tool song ever written. That's how I found this video. Maynard from Tool can scathe someone so easily, usually with pretty articulate vocabulary, which tends to make the song hilarious to me. The Pot, Hooker With a Penis, Eulogy, Aenima, Ticks & Leeches... they're all stellar but my favorite is The Pot. There's a great cover here on RUclips fronted by this gorgeous lady, backed by a brass band. She does Maynard justice 100% Cheers! 💜
I landed here probably because I'm a Tool fan. So, it's definitely fun to watch people that are new to the music. It's pretty different sort of metal, but if you don't like metal, it probably sounds like any other metal. Yeah, Steph, you nailed it on the meaning. OGT = original gangster tool (fan) btw. I love Steph now, and I don't even know this channel. Yeah...hahahaha. ... Tool sold out to the label long before nearly anyone ever heard of them. Glad you love that breakdown. Definitely the best part. Have a great summer!
I freaking luv yall!! Couldn't click fast enough. Always had a relatable humorous enjoyment to this song. From all of the peripheral people who felt necessary to give input on our bands songs and material.
First off, you guys are awesome! I think you two perceived the song as you listened to it! I subbed to you, well because you guys listen to TOOL. Thumbs UP
First time watching your channel and you guys are great. Love how you were on to it from the start because I'm always thinking about what the hell is Maynard talking about for multiple listens before it clicks. Great video.
Didn't quite understand the meaning of the song for years (ok I'm not american but still), although I'm a fan, and that girl figured out instantly....very insightful
Lmao! The first video I’ve watched of you two, but won’t be the last. Subscribed! Steph, you nailed it! Billy Joe Armstrong, from Green Day, responded to questions that they sold out. He said: “Yeah, we sell every show”. Fans who say a band is a sellout miss the point that these bands are all trying to make a living doing something they love. If they expand their fan base beyond their original fans, it’s because they have the mass appeal they were striving for in the first place.
Noooo. they are being satirical. The album that this song is on is their 3rd album (released in 1996) , and they are just flippi'n a big middle finger to the nay sayers, cuz Tool does what they want. Tool has actually maintained control over their music over the years. That's why there has always been so much time between their albums, that and because Maynard James Keenan has 2 other bands he works with, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer.
O my Lord! I just found you two tonight!!! You two really brighten up my day do you know that. I hope that I can have something one day that's just as special as what it seems you both share. It's refreshing to see you guys. Much love to ya both!!!!!!!
I've been listening to tool for 11 years and didn't know what this song was about for years and this lady figured it out in a minute. Props to you, much more intuitive than I.
OGT means original Tool fan or a fan from the beginning when the band was 1st starting & had only released an EP of music….this was in 1992 because Tool (& Rage Against the Machine as well) didn’t gain a national audience until the early summer of 93,both bands while virtually unknown outside of Cali managed to secure slots on that summers Lollapalooza main stage (they had awesome,well connected management apparently) & the rest is how they say history 🥶🖤
This is the first time I've ever seen any of your videos on your RUclips channel because you caught my attention with Tool and this song. This song is awesome. OGT basically means that he was a Tool fan from the beginning
@@StephanieLee48 i have a suggestion....phish "rift", or "bathtub gin"... none of these reaction channels ever show jam bands ...i bet you'll like it...me and my wife do when were drinkin wine lol
I'm so glad you guys are understanding the concept of this song, it's very refreshing to see a different culture listening to music like tool, seeing you guys have fun and understand and have a proper naritive of the music brings me joy keep it up, great video, glad you guys enjoyed one of my favorite songs if all time, next time do, nofx, seeing double at the triple rock! BTW first time viewer
Tool will tour again later this year after they drop their new album in Aug. I highly recommend seeing them live! Amazing live, and a very awesome cool crowd!! One of the best live shows you will ever see!
"Original Gangster Tool," someone who claims to have been a fan of rock/metal band Tool since the beginning; term appears in Tool's 1996 song "Hooker with a Penis
Mark your calendar cause tool is coming out with a new album next month August 30th I'm so excited cause I've been listening to them for 16 years and it's been almost 14 years since they put out a new album
Don’t know how I ended up here, but fuck yes! Laughed my ass off. Had a great time. My only gripe was that I watched his face and I REALLY wanted to hear his thoughts behind them. Kick ass, you two. Kick ass.

SNORTING COKE
Yup.
You got that right man! I hate the term sell out in which some mean it. Being successful at offering your product to people who demand it is smart business...if that means sell out then hell yea like he said they sold out long ago.
Right on
we do live in a society
Holy shit!! She just completely deconstructed everything about this song. RESPECT!!!! 🙏🏼 I love you guys, cool as hell. I’ve been into tool since ‘92 and there are so many meanings. Thank you for legitimately hearing this. That was cool as hell
Holy shit she really did that was awesome
Oh hey if I'm not mistaken that van 501's were made in sweat shops allegedly!? So there's that little dog too! Haha. Maynard! 😅❤
This girl is sharp. Had the meaning of the song almost right out the gate.👍🏼
THIS GIRL IS SMART
i like the way she said dipshit !
Super clever...awesome couple. Both of are smart and fun and really nice people..really like you guys!
I can’t fathom how she figured the song out that fast. She must have heard the song before this reaction video. Or she is literally a genius
But incorrect.
By saying he sold his soul to make a record (putting in blood, sweat and years) but you bought one, He's saying the kid in the 501's, with a dope beastie tee, in fashion, with all his expensive accoutrement, had no soul to give; he had to buy everything that he is. It wasn't about the label pushing them. This is about the irony of the copycats telling someone who is making the right moves, and finding success, that they're doing wrong and change is bad.
Im a proud john of the band tool
OGT; original gangster tool- means he thinks he’s been down since day one with the band.
ty
Steph..BY FAR the quickest TO EVER get the message behind the song. LOVE IT!!!
2:36 -- OGT meaning "Original Gangsta Tool".... meaning Tool when they first hit the scene in 1992.
4:00 -- STEPH'S GOT IT!!!!!!
hell yeah
I love how black people who are new to tool dive right into deconstructing the song lyrics. It's refreshing.
They are usually right too ✌️
It's super weird that you're commenting on their race, lol. All sorts of people like all sorts of music. jfc.
@@Devin_Art They react differently from other colors of people. I'd say Asian if they were Asian. Stop trying to find problems where they don't exist.
@@al4385 Nah dude, NAH. If you don't see how generalizing an entire race's way of dissecting media is stupid and problematic then well... Big YIKES mate. You should probably reflect on that.

@@Devin_Art Don't be so sensitive.
Dead on Steph. Great insight on this one. I was 17 in '92 . Tool has been a fixture in my entire adult life.
Micheal Hagler i was three years your junior and have loved ‘em ever since too
I was 22 in 92 and I too still love Tool. I just got to see them live in Des Moines last month.
@@sspu1 Saw them last month in Jacksonville. Played Invincible and descending. Was soooo sick.
Super jealous. Alot of bands have came and gone but I have always fucking loved tool. I'm only 21. Wish I was an 80s baby so I could have explained all of this while it was happening
I love these two. She's clearly the smart one, and he just smiles and agrees to whatever she says. Just like my wife and I!
As a smart hubby does.
I've never seen someone get what Maynard is saying the first time hearing it. Great job. Hope y'all listen to more Tool. One of the greatest bands of all time
Hi Jay and Steph! Another OGT here! I always saw HWAP as a middle finger to all the whining fans that disliked Undertow from their first 2 releases. The band matured and expanded. They hardly went mainstream. Tool fans can be kinda nuts and possessive of the music. Can't wait for their next release in August! Favorite song to listen when drunk is Lateralus. "SPIRAL OUT, KEEP GOING!"
Hi Gail, that's a great insight and what I've always thought as well. As well as just a generalized discontent with what we'd call "hipsters" nowadays. Look at the song "Aenima" when Maynard says things like "fret for your figure and fret for your latte and fret for your lawsuite" as well as "fuck retro anything, fuck your tattoos, fuck all these gun-toting hip gangster wannabes" etc. Great album through and through and I am so stoked for the new one to FINALLY drop! 13 years in the making baby! Cheers
So.. what did u think of Fear..
Never heard tool till watching your vids, love em now, much love from uk
What?
You mucker
There's a serious amount of tool songs that you should listen to. Like 30+ songs lol. Also from the UK.

Tool would have aprove .
Nailed it my friend....
Smart lady. She got the point of the song instantly.

Dude when she said ogt was for gay or transgender people I was like oh no their not going to have any idea what this song is about but she got it immediately afterwards thank goodness
I lol'd at that comment
Omg I love you guys so much. I never watch these videos but this popped up in my stream and I was too lazy to change it. And now I can’t stop watching. I love the vibes. You’re both beautiful. Made me laugh.

Is Steph the rain-man (woman) of song lyrics?
I landed here probably because I'm a Tool fan. So, it's definitely fun to watch people that are new to the music. It's pretty different sort of metal, but if you don't like metal, it probably sounds like any other metal.

You've got a new sub. Long live tool.
And awesome song review!!!! Steph.... Props gurl. I love deep thinkers.... And Jay.... You da man brotha. Keep on keeping on, ya heard😉
Tool is one of the most talented bands I have ever seen.
I freaking luv yall!! Couldn't click fast enough. Always had a relatable humorous enjoyment to this song. From all of the peripheral people who felt necessary to give input on our bands songs and material.

She totally figured it out.
Wait, what? He is crazy. lmao. 🤘👽🤘
Figured it out right away.

Orginal tool fan. From their first ep album.
You guys just made my day and made me smile. I watched 2 videos you did for Tool, which is my favorite band. Lyrics and intricate music is amazing.
Love it. Gotta subscribe after this.
You guys rock ...hey what u slow sipping jay!! You should have your own tv show!!!!
Yep! You got it right! Smart, smart, smart!!!
I've never seen one of your videos but this is beautiful.
The early 90s was all about dis tracks.
Didn't quite understand the meaning of the song for years (ok I'm not american but still), although I'm a fan, and that girl figured out instantly....very insightful
OGT - old gangsta tool - duddy tells him he's listened to tool since there first EP
It is a delight to see you guys vibing and unveiling the meaning (pretty straight forward) of this marvelous DISS track.
This is me as a mom when my child goes to bed. Drinking wine, listening to tool and breaking down lyrics 😂😂
Lmao! The first video I’ve watched of you two, but won’t be the last. Subscribed!
Steph, you nailed it!
Billy Joe Armstrong, from Green Day, responded to questions that they sold out. He said: “Yeah, we sell every show”.
Fans who say a band is a sellout miss the point that these bands are all trying to make a living doing something they love. If they expand their fan base beyond their original fans, it’s because they have the mass appeal they were striving for in the first place.
You nailed the meaning
This was a joy to watch guys. Something about watching other people enjoy the epicness of TOOL makes me happy.
I still have tears in my eyes from laughing so hard jay is just so damn funny I love you guys see you on your next video😂🤣🤘
New sub! Love how Steph broke down the song. I've seen Tool in concert 3 times. Looking forward to when they tour on the new album!
Itsa me Mario 🙏
Original Gangster -TOOL......92' I am OGT
You understanding this right away made my Friday. Awesome stuff.
Noooo. they are being satirical. The album that this song is on is their 3rd album (released in 1996) , and they are just flippi'n a big middle finger to the nay sayers, cuz Tool does what they want. Tool has actually maintained control over their music over the years. That's why there has always been so much time between their albums, that and because Maynard James Keenan has 2 other bands he works with, A Perfect Circle and Puscifer.
He wasn't in APC or puscifer when this came out.
O my Lord! I just found you two tonight!!! You two really brighten up my day do you know that. I hope that I can have something one day that's just as special as what it seems you both share. It's refreshing to see you guys. Much love to ya both!!!!!!!
Wow. That gave me goosebumps hearing her grasp the idea of the song like instantly. Love this and you guys are so damn cute. 💜
Haven't been around since a tool or soad vid lmao but I see you updated the intro. Keep killin it! keep it goin!

I've been listening to tool for 11 years and didn't know what this song was about for years and this lady figured it out in a minute. Props to you, much more intuitive than I.

Of Good Taste (urban dictionary)
Great perception of the album. Ya'll are hilarious! Love you guys! Subbed!
Steph is so spot on with this analysis. Rock on, you two!
OLD GANGSTER TOOL!
You two are adorable. SUBSCRIBE!
OGT means original Tool fan or a fan from the beginning when the band was 1st starting & had only released an EP of music….this was in 1992 because Tool (& Rage Against the Machine as well) didn’t gain a national audience until the early summer of 93,both bands while virtually unknown outside of Cali managed to secure slots on that summers Lollapalooza main stage (they had awesome,well connected management apparently) & the rest is how they say history 🥶🖤
This is the first time I've ever seen any of your videos on your RUclips channel because you caught my attention with Tool and this song. This song is awesome.
OGT basically means that he was a Tool fan from the beginning
Ok first I've seen of your channel...you guys are fun, I'm sold
heatto jones 🙏
@@StephanieLee48 i have a suggestion....phish "rift", or "bathtub gin"... none of these reaction channels ever show jam bands ...i bet you'll like it...me and my wife do when were drinkin wine lol
I'm so glad you guys are understanding the concept of this song, it's very refreshing to see a different culture listening to music like tool, seeing you guys have fun and understand and have a proper naritive of the music brings me joy keep it up, great video, glad you guys enjoyed one of my favorite songs if all time, next time do, nofx, seeing double at the triple rock! BTW first time viewer
Tool will tour again later this year after they drop their new album in Aug. I highly recommend seeing them live! Amazing live, and a very awesome cool crowd!! One of the best live shows you will ever see!
Seen them again in June at Rock am Ring. It was dead cold and stormy, which killed the sound to some extend, but it was still a great concert.
Kudos to Steph with a very perspective view of the lyrics. Great reaction guys.
Great reaction, first time watcher. You got a new subscriber. Cheers from Aotearoa NZ.
Thanks so much for your support
I love you guys. That was beautiful and spot on. Thank you for this channel.
Is it so refreshing to hear someone pick up the gist of a song, I get goosebumps hearing people talk about the same shit I love. Keep it up guys!🤘💚👍✌
You nailed it right off gate. Took me like 5 listens to understand wtf they were talking about back in the day.
I like you guys.
"Original Gangster Tool," someone who claims to have been a fan of rock/metal band Tool since the beginning; term appears in Tool's 1996 song "Hooker with a Penis
Mark your calendar cause tool is coming out with a new album next month August 30th I'm so excited cause I've been listening to them for 16 years and it's been almost 14 years since they put out a new album
Don’t know how I ended up here, but fuck yes! Laughed my ass off. Had a great time. My only gripe was that I watched his face and I REALLY wanted to hear his thoughts behind them.
Kick ass, you two. Kick ass.
Yooo I vibe with you two for REAL for real. Subbed!
