    I'm not gonna lie, reaction channels are so boring and oversaturated these days. But you, you bring something different to the scene. Between the little stuff like the artistic intro you did, not pausing every 3 seconds to talk about how hard it goes, etc, to providing the initial reaction as well as voice over breakdowns and your interpretations, you're one of the most unique reactors I've seen in a long time!

    Also worth a mention this album has never left the billboard top 200, and is the longest charting hip hop album of all time, outside of Eminem’s greatest hits album. This album is a timeless classic, socially, lyrically and sonically it has aged incredibly well, and imo is one of the best albums ever made!

    Your reactions are a unique breath of fresh air in a rather over saturated genre. You’re providing a perspective we don’t often get as you seem very musically inclined, and you also offer your raw emotional reactions which is appreciated. You appear to connect very deeply to the feelings music can evoke. You’ve probably had this recommended so many times, but frank ocean’s blond would be right up your alley

    Def didn’t expect The Art of Peer Pressure to be one of the ones that made you cry but I definitely get it. This album changed my life because to a much lesser extent I was Kendrick in this album at the time of its release. I was caught up in drugs, almost arrested (thank god the cop was cool) and drifting further and further from my family, all to impress “the homies.” Now “the homies” are all gone. We love you Path!!! So proud of your growth!!! Edit: not necessarily at the time of release but in the coming years

    Another great video. GKMC was an experience to me growing up. As young black kid growing up, I listened to a lot of rap but the moment I heard good kid for the first time I was flooded with emotions cause I felt like a rapper was finally speaking to me. Sing about me had me in tears the first time I heard it. Sadly, death's always been a huge part of my life, from murders to illness. I was 16 by the first time I heard the album & my father was the latest to go. He had MS. We bonded off of hip-hop. My oldest brother was murdered 4 years before that. I was left with such a bittersweet feeling after I heard the song but that third verse was so cathartic to me at that time. Idkw but it made me closer to music like this. Made me feel less alone.

"usually i'm drug free, but shit im with the homies" powerful as fuck

    i was fortunate enough to see kendrick in concert for the mr morale and the big steppers tour and no joke i spent half the concert with tears in my eyes as i (and literally the entire packed stadium) danced to every single song. there were people on the stairs smoking blunts, dancing with their partners etc. while kendrick performed bitch don't kill my vibe and it was arguably the most amazing experience i've ever had in my life. he is such a musical genius, man, and an AMAZING performer. the concert lasted for almost 3 and a half hours of him performing -- every single song (not counting interludes) on his new album, and everything anyone else could ask for. i feel like i got to witness one of the greats of this period of humanity -- like i was seeing beethoven in person or something. absolutely incredible edit: seeing you cry to 'the art of peer pressure' brought tears to my eyes. this is a great example of just how fucking amazing kendrick is. the ability to tie our completely unique experiences together in a way that invokes serious emotion in all of us is so amazing. you're loved, path

    You said in either this or the mr morale reaction that you wear your heart on your sleeve and now I'm constantly thinking about how true that is, with every word and emotions of your reactions. When you're starting to cry - seemingly out of nowhere, before you explain something super personal that just makes me feel for you. I hope you're ok. Even in your most vulnerable moments, you're focusing on protecting and looking out for your young audience. I hope you're ok. I could write so much more about my thoughts, but they're all very similar just written in different ways; you're one of the most caring people on this planet. Whatever success you have, you deserve more. Whatever fulfilment you feel, you deserve more. And if the universe doesn't give it to you right away when you wish for more, you have over hundred thousand people that will wish for you. Thank you for doing these reactions. It's so much better to (re)listen to albums with you. Instead of feeling sad or lonely, I feel happy :)

    I think you missed the point of backseat freestyle, specifically the line "wifey girlfriend and mistress", the entire song is just him freestyling in the backseat of his friends car. He's not really cheating on any girl, he's just talking shit as a carefree kid. Experiencing this album after Mr morale seems kinda disorienting since this is when he was still just a child.

    This album blew 12 year old me’s brain, it’s cool growing up and understanding the album with more depth but even now I can’t decide which song is my favorite, on every listen one bar sticks out to me and that song becomes my favorite in that point in time until life changes and I relate to a different bar in a different song. This album gets better with time and with experience absolutely insane you get to listen to it for the first time with the mental forté of a 25 yr old

    Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst remains my favorite Kendrick song. I also think history will look back stunned at a track like Poetic Justice - the two most important rappers of their generation, early in their careers, who would come to walk extremely different paths just trading bars

    I can never get enough of your reactions, everything about the way you get into the songs and how you decide to even re listen after the initial reaction and add in what you've taken away or learned makes your channel the best to watch. You never cease to amaze me at how you make the songs feel more intimate and how you give real raw reactions its just always a treat to watch. Your analysis of what the meanings of songs could be, in my opinion I think you've reworked the react style of videos into something more that what they normally are much love, can't wait to see you rise up more I have no doubt that you will.

    10 years later this album still means so much to me. I grew up with a lot of survivor's guilt, something you'll hear Kendrick speak on more if you listen to TPAB. This was reality for my cousins and best friends growing up in tough parts of Philly or Reading PA while I by a stroke of luck was born to the part of the family tree that made it out. This album is like a piece of some of them for me. A way to always have the loved ones I lost who tried their best to be the good kid but either couldn't make it out alive or are doing time behind bars. I'll always love my brothers and will always be grateful to Kendrick that in my opinion he chose to not only tell his story but their story too.
