2024-05-04 20:26:31 +0000 UTCFor the Consequence and Kanye song, did you notice they both focus thirds of their verses on ideas that related to or ended with good, bad, then ugly? Then Consequence did it backwards to end on good for the last part of the song

2024-04-27 07:42:56 +0000 UTCI just love how your dad reacts to Erykah. She gets all of us the same way 😊
Brittany Butler
2024-04-26 20:30:39 +0000 UTCWould love to see a reaction to Ab-Soul - The Book of Soul. One of the saddest tracks I’ve ever heard! Starts off about his childhood suffering from Stevens-Johnson syndrome then goes into how his girlfriend (the singer Alohi Joh) committed suicide by jumping off a building. Brutal, but extremely beautiful.

2024-04-24 23:36:31 +0000 UTCLord Finesse and Big L were a part of a collective know as D.I.T.C. Crew which stands for Diggin' In The Crates Crew. The collective is composed of Lord Finesse, Diamond D, Big L, O.C., Fat Joe, Buckwild, Showbiz and A.G.. Big L - Put It On. He shouts out D.I.T.C. at the end of the song. But also featured on the song is DJ Kid Capri. Kid Capri credits himself with changing the sound of rnb to include more rap elements. He took Stephanie Mills' vocals from Something in the Way (You Make Me Feel) and played them over the break beat from "Impeach the President". He put the mix on a mixtape and it blew up. He had to put the song on several of his future mixtapes due to the popularity. https://youtu.be/vihnVBpntDo?si=xrGagYwqV6rkB9TE "Real Love" by MJB is an example of this.

2024-04-24 22:37:04 +0000 UTCFun fact about Consequence: -He's Q-Tip's cousin and also a member of A Tribe Called Quest -DJ Kahled's first ever single was the song "Grammy Family" off of Cons' album -He ghost wrote a lot for Kanye -He also tried to date my sister back in high school. I would suggest Consequence fear John Legend - Feel This Way...John Legend raps

2024-04-20 04:29:22 +0000 UTCyou guys should definitely react to J Dilla "Donuts" amazing album probably the best instrumental hip hop album ever released and a masterclass in sampling also i recommend checking out this video which will really give your dad some knowledge on how Sampling is used in Hip Hop and what techniques are used to create Hip Hop beats:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SENzTt3ftiU

2024-04-20 02:11:17 +0000 UTCDad heard A Good Day by Ice Cube, which sampled Footsteps in the Dark. That would’ve been good for this week.
Jen M
2024-04-20 01:50:48 +0000 UTCI will keep suggesting great songs until you listen to one and see how great it is! Hehe. So for next week I suggest "Wish You Were Here" by Incubus. A song from a band that transcends genres and use turn-tables in a alt-rock/alt-metal band, with a lead singer with amazing vocal range and smooth voice and powerful guitar riffs aswell as hard drums that sometimes tone down into these really quite beautiful strummed light chords.
Theo Holmgren
2024-04-20 01:18:20 +0000 UTCPC #15 suggestions: I'm Bad by LL Cool J and/or One in a Million by Aaliyah. I don't think you've covered either artist yet.
Kenysha
2024-04-20 00:25:21 +0000 UTCAlex Isley & Jack Dine - Under the Moon (her father is Ernie Isley, the guitarist in the group the Isley brothers) Footsteps in the Dark - The Isley Brothers (Dad may have heard this one)

2024-04-19 23:20:23 +0000 UTCSuggestion for #15 Ama Lou "Trust Nobody" Or Amel Larriueux "make me whole"
jeff baker
2024-04-19 23:02:02 +0000 UTCMy all time favorite Kim verse! She's the prototype for the hardcore female rapper. Without Kim, there's no Nicki, no Cardi, no City Girls, etc.
Kenysha
2024-04-19 22:52:46 +0000 UTCyea.. I dont know what I was thinking haha, must have confused him for something else. a bit further, after we started listening to him, I checked where he was from cause he sounded so east coast

2024-04-19 22:44:02 +0000 UTCLord Finesse is from the Bronx, NYC
jeff baker
2024-04-19 22:38:01 +0000 UTCQadir by Nick Hakim is my suggestion for next week
Ruben Reyes
2024-04-19 22:27:26 +0000 UTCFor the next samples episode, I’m suggesting Juicy Fruit by Mtume which was also sampled by Biggie in his song Juicy.
Dee
2024-04-19 22:16:00 +0000 UTCSylvia Stiplin was on Roy Ayer’s record label. I’m sure he wrote the music and possibly the lyrics for “can’t turn me away”. Sylvia also sang in “Aquarian Dream” and “Ladies of the Eighties”, both groups are associated with Roy Ayer’s.
Simira
2024-04-19 22:10:22 +0000 UTCIs there a theme for next week? If not, how about a little Lenny Kravitz? I mean dad likes Jimi Hendrix right? He inspired Lenny. 🤷🏽♀️🤣
Jen M
2024-04-19 22:09:59 +0000 UTCI had forgotten how raw that was! I remember the radio version. 🤣

2024-04-19 21:55:52 +0000 UTCThe Golden Age of Hip-hop is widely considered as 1988-1995.
Damon K. Stephens
2024-04-19 21:52:10 +0000 UTCLil Kim was one of the first, if not first raw female rappers. She is the blueprint for a lot of current popular female rappers. Uncle Luke/2 Live Crew came out in around 87 and they had very explicit sexual lyrics. He was sued by the gov for his lyricsand went up to the Supreme Court and eventually won in 1994
Simira
2024-04-19 21:51:45 +0000 UTCDad wasn't ready for Lil' Kim. Big produced Kim's vocals.
Damon K. Stephens
2024-04-19 21:46:16 +0000 UTCMan…when that first song came on, I really just wanted to sing, “Get Money!” 😂🤣 💃🏾 Lil Kim’s version 😂 but it was definitely giving Minnie Riperton vibes.
Jen M
2024-04-19 21:43:56 +0000 UTCTricky - Hell Is Round The Corner P.S. I believe it's a crime you guys haven't reacted to a Tupac album yet
ERIK
2024-04-19 21:32:27 +0000 UTCI have an idea for a series you guys could do. Write down every suggestion that you want to save for its own reaction video then every week or two put all these songs in a wheel spinning randomizer. Start the video by spinning the wheel and what ever song comes up you react to.
Anthony Mendoza
2024-04-19 21:28:49 +0000 UTCI had to pause at the reference to Biz Markie...he has an underrated song that I LOVE called "What Comes Around Goes Around". Superb piano at the end too
