Yesterday would’ve also been a great listen by atmosphere!

Trajan Pruitt

That’s awesome to hear, thank you. And welcome aboard! - dad

The FrontRoom

You guys have verbalized my love for Retrograde in a way I have never even considered. So amazing!! I love that song.

Brianna Campbell

Kwame - Ownlee Eue

ProRenae

Good question! Maybe one of your fellow patrons knows the answer to that one? - dad

The FrontRoom

Pray for me- Joe budden Suicide note- Scarface 30 keys- Brownsville Ka Amnesia- K-Rino Would love to see you guys react to any of these!!

Izzy

Devin the Dude sounds just like Erykah and I heard him shout out TCU. Is this the "Dallas" sound?

ebony alburdy

Please do: Jazz: Round Midnight- Adam Blackstone ft Jazmine Sullivan. I promise its not like her normal music, it's a remake of Ella Fitzgerald and a must listen💯 Hip hop: Ahmad-back in da day. It's from the mid nineties and reminiscences about the joys of childhood.

Sheivon Jackson

-Santana "Sideways" Santana (Feat. Citizen Cope) -The Dave Mathews Band "The Stone"

Tnulb

Loving these reactions. Thanks guys! Alabama Shakes- Gimme All Your Love Sleepy Brown-Can’t Wait ft OutKast (one of my favorite verses from Andre 3000)

Precious

Keyshia Cole - I Changed My Mind (2005) - Produced by Kanye West

ProRenae

Trick Daddy "in da Wind" or "Im a Thug" E-40 "Tell me when to go"

Bunk

I’d really love it if you guys could do “Theme Music to a Drive-By” or “Put You On Game” by Lupe. Both songs are filled with so much imagery and lyrical layers that I think it’d be fun for you to dig into.

SlumpJones

Boogie Down Production-You must learn

Zina

I suggest Tevin Campbell. Can we talk, I’m ready, or Alone with you

Alex Moore

Never head any of these songs. If I had to pick retrograde would be my favorite for the week.

Kenya S

Woodkid - Pale Yellow I think dad would enjoy it quite a lot :)

André Monteiro

YESSSS!!!

Felicia Wiggins

Aaliyahhh!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Felicia Wiggins

Jin, Aja Smith-love story Jin is the first Asian rapper. He's worked with Kanye and jay-z in 2004.

Ola Zanea Smith Jackson

You guys should definitely listen to Papoose. Very lyrical the song that I’m choosing is cure kind of reminds me of Nas I gave you power rapping from a different perspective.

Christopher Lugo

The song, "It's all because of you" was by Sukiyaki I think

Alanna

Devin the Dude: Doobie Ashtray, What a Job, Just A Man, R&B, I-Hi..

Brittany Butler

I think a dive into Devin would be fun. Devin the Dude is from Houston, TX but he's done a ton of work with West coast artists like Snoop. (Dr. Dre wanted to sign him but James Prince wouldn't allow it.)

Brittany Butler

There's sooo much Devin they could get into!

Brittany Butler

Thank you for suggesting them!!

Jamie Kramer

Please do more Atmosphere!! “Trying To Find A Balance” is one of their best. I’d love some De La Soul “The Magic Number” or A Tribe Called Quest “Can I Kick It” too. You two would absolutely love all of these. I know it’s 3, but I can’t decide 🤣 Forgive me 🤣

Jamie Kramer

Bahamadia 1) Rugged Ruff 2) 3 The Hard Way Feat with two other sisters K-Swift and Meeca Bahamadia is a Philadelphia native who some say is one of the most unrated rap artist she is definitely one of the greatest in my opinion.

Zina

I know Lupe could be quite the hassle for any of these "People's Choice" reactions But maybe checking out a Lupe Loosie here and there won't hurt Lupe Fiasco - Animal Pharm

ERIK

I’m really loving these People’s Choice Episodes, keep it up: Dom Kennedy “When I Comer Around” The-Dream “Fast Car”

Brandon Jackson

Not sure if Kai has listened to these, I'd love you guys to check them out! Portishead - Glory Box (genre: Trip-Hop) Aaliyah - One In A Million (Neo-soul/R&B)

Aakash

Are you still down? By Jon B. ft. TuPac

Fatima

You dudes gotta listen to more Devin The Dude

Bad Hombre

YAYYY!! Thank you soooo much for listening to my suggestion Atmosphere! That made my day. Seriously. By the way one big thing you guys missed in the song is that the waitress is his daughter! He says on the last line “Thinking damn I should’ve been a better father to my daughter” loved that reaction though, awesome video as always guys.

Bad Hombre

1. Comptons Most Wanted - Hood Took Me Under 2. The Dove Shack - Summertime in the LBC (G funk vibes) 3. Warren G - If We Give You A Chance (feat. Slick Rick) Honorable mention: 1 Jackers - I Can't Fix It

Htx_Screwww

Yes, that’s it! And gosh, I remember having a Taste of Honey vinyl back around ‘79.

The FrontRoom

"Git Up, Git Out" by Outkast ft Goodie Mob And I'm looking forward to the "What a Job" reaction.

ProRenae

"Hey do you think that she might be his daughter ?" I'm referring to the waitress song. The last line kinda has me thinking 🤔

Richard and Raya

Bizzy Bone- “ON THE FREEWAY” “JESUS”

Sovieski Perez

Krayzie Bone: “MO MURDA” (Off the Mo Thugs Family Scriptures album) “MEMORIES”

Sovieski Perez

Victoria Monét "How does or Make You Feel" Kali Uchis "I Wish You Roses"

Kat

Pac Div "Mayor" is an underrated song. It's got a fun west coast vibe

jeff baker

Grace Jones - Slave To the Rhythm (featuring Ian McShane from the John Wick movies) https://youtu.be/Z0XLzIswI2s?si=y8e_ImqYB6yEbtnE Living Colour - Cult of Personality https://youtu.be/7xxgRUyzgs0?si=RBTzkV7O_KiUzApi

djhyjak

It's pronounced "Ka lees" (like lease)

Angel Miranda

The song your dad was referring to was Sukiyaki by Kyu Sakamoto and later done by a female group called A Taste Of Honey.

Zina

The Tony Rich Project - Nobody Knows New Edition - Can you stand the rain. You should do a full reaction to Maxwell essentials album because he is great but to start listen to Maxwell- This Womans Work (MTV unplugged version) For a new R&B song reaction, please Muni Long- Made For Me (BET Soul Train Awards performance) it’s got R&B fans in a chokehold right now ! Janet Jackson is amazing must do a best hits album reaction! Janet Jackson- Come Back To Me Brian McKnight- Biggest Part Of Me or Back At One This one is for Dad Roberta Flack- It might be you

Model Mantha

Came here to say this. Kai you had to of heard it and that's how you recognized the one line. Please listen to it next week!

Crystal

Thanks for listening to Devin. He has a lot of great songs. You got to let Dad hear the albums on his own too. ✌️ Ice-T - Colors Too Short - In the Ghetto

Richard and Raya

Devin the dude is so dope! The song what a job, which Kai mentioned is definitely worth a reaction. The collab with Snoop and Andre is amazing! I am not sure if you have reacted to KRS ONE yet. One of the greats! I recommend to listen to higher level!

Alex Alt

Drake - Take Care full album

Jordan Richardson

And her name is pronounced as cuh-lease. She did a lot of work with The Neptunes.

ficy

I have 2 1/2 recommendations…lol! Fly Away by Lenny Kravitz because y’all haven’t heard him yet and that hurts my heart…lol! We Were Just Binging by Musiq Soulchild and HIT Boy, it’s a more recent Musiq song. And the 1/2 suggestion is just for Dad, yall don’t have to do it on a video, but since he likes A Childrens Story by Slick Rick, he may like A Teenage Love also by Slick Rick Thanks for all the hard work you put into these!

Jen M

Geto Boys - I Tried Album suggestion: 88-Keys - The Death of Adam

ficy

Another amazing Atmosphere track is "Little Man" would love for yoy guys to check that out. I will also suggest the two tracks I suggested last week again haha which are Time After Time by Krayzie Bone and Walk Like a Man by Murs.

Mike B

Amazing storytelling on Renee

ficy

Snoop Dogg has his own version of La Di Da Di. You should check that out.

Shaquea White

I’m so glad your dad enjoyed my slick Rick recommendation. If dad wants more older hip hop I got you. I recommend The Message by grand master flash or Smooth Operator by Big Daddy Kane

Anthony Mendoza

I love how Dad is getting a true appreciation for rap and Hip Hop. He knows more than me and I grew up on it! lol! And the song dad was looking for is Sukiyaki by Taste of Honey

Jen M

I hope you guys do more Devin the dude soon, great artist

Jimmgrant8000

Sticky fingaz- money talks Lost boyz-renee

Gary Domingos

Or Scapegoat by Atmosphere. It has a really dark sort of crepping beat that's somehow also slightly aggressive. It's basically just him rapping a list of all the worl'ds evil to a great beat.

Theo Holmgren

You guys should check out some more atmosphere! Slug is a great poet Holding My Breath would be a good one to do.

Chris D

Please do "Hazard Duty Pay" by JPEGMAFIA. Such a banger it really get's the energy flowing and the sampling is so creative!

Theo Holmgren

Suggestions: Slum village - Climax (the group jdilla was in) Terrace Martin- witchcraft

Gemintheye

Death is Certain Pt. 2 (It Hurts) by Royce Da 5'9" is one of his lesser known songs, but one of his best. It's one that always makes me a little emotional when I hear it. Very heartfelt. There is no part 1 btw

Ruben Reyes

Sweet! Can't wait to check it out. Requesting Jonylah Forever - Lupe Fiasco (I recommend googling Jonylah Watkins for context). Happy Friday!

Check Mate

Jodeci - Cry for You Trying again since I was so close… 🤞🏾 Thank you both for great reactions, as always.

Adrienne

Rakim - Intro & 18th Letter
