ADDICT (Music Video) - HAZBIN HOTEL REACTION!!! (By Vivziepop) THIS GETS SUPER DARK!

[@XIIIJustin]

One thing you might not have caught is that Cherri is actually not just blowing up random things but she's actually targeting things and places that belong to Valentino, Angel's boss and pimp, most likely as a means of revenge for hurting her best friend. And the mystery cyclops is named Izzi, he's an unused Zoophobia character from Vivz' previous work being introduced in Hazbin in connection with Cherri. In Zoophobia he was to be a Bounty Hunter and from the lyrics in this music video it sounds like they had a professional relationship that went sour because she mentioned his "money and power" implying he was doing it for riches and authority and her "simple delights" meaning most likely that she was only in it to have fun blowing things up.

[@jaymeans8299]

Yea that guy maybe her father idk but shes obviously blowing his shit up

[@medecko4394]

I already knew cherri was throwing those bombs on purpose.

[@vayroxayp7331]

By his eyes maybe he is Cherri's father in this since they look like alot and she say "misbehave". Angel have an abusive boss maybe Cherri had an abusive dad idk

[@vesstig]

shes the best gf

[@rainbospud4316]

This is very helpful thank you

[@cuteskeleton9381]

One thing you may have not caught (Though it's on screen for a few seconds so a lot of people never notice) is when Angel and Cherri are running out of the club at the end, there's a neon sign on the wall that says "It was all a dream" Sadly, this implies that Angel only dreamt blowing up the club with Cherri and in reality just suffered through the whole video with no relief or happiness to be had. When you really think about it, they couldn't blow it up because the club is owned by Angel's boss who's an overlord, he'd absolutely hurt Angel (Even worse than what we saw in the video) and would have gone after Cherri and probably killed her. Angel has no power over his abusive boss, so all he can do is dream about his happiness and hope Charlie's redemption idea will work so he can finally be free.

[@aaronatkinson3050]

[@geererdway]

FunFact: The name "Angel Dust" is actually a name for a drug, and Angel is a drug-addict, hence why he is named after the drug instead of his name from his life, Anthony.

[@frozenfoxgames5300]

He named himself Angel Dust, because that's the drug he overdosed and died on. Just provided a little more in depth explanation.

[@Bagel_Dog]

His real name isnt anthony thats just from the wiki page lel

[@Dorkomora]

@@Bagel_Dog His name is Anthony, Vivzie said that on one of the livestreams from Ashley Nichols, she sometimes gives a bit of a backstory on the characters!

[@geererdway]

@@Bagel_Dog Oh. I thought it was. Huh.

[@Dorkomora]

@@geererdway It is.

[@asktoybox]

So to give a little insight on the lyrics as far as Angel's perspective: On the surface level the idea of being addicted seems to relate to the drugs he's taking but there is actually a lot more to it than that. He's addicted to the overall lifestyle he lives. The problem is that Valentino (his boss) more or less controls Angel's life. One of Angel's biggest struggles is the fact that he can't escape from Valentino. This isn't because Valentino has any kind of real power over him or forces him to stick around, it's because the lifestyle that Angel wants, the feeling of being important and being desired as the sexy porn star is provided by Val. So in other words, Valentino is part of the package. Angel can't leave Valentino or else he'd lose everything he has. He's afraid that without Valentino he will no longer have the fame and renown that comes with being that famous porn star he is so proud about being. Without Valentino, Angel is afraid of becoming nothing more than a no-name prostitute turning tricks on the street. This is what the line "You're not letting it go." that Cherri sings about is referencing. Angel can't let go of this lifestyle he lives and as such he can't let go of Valentino either, even though he wants to escape him. This is also what Angel means in the final verse when he says "I'm dependent." he's not just dependent on drug use, but he's dependent on Valentino, the person that abuses him, to provide him with the things he wants most. This is why he's "Feeling helpless". Most of the final lines have a double meaning. The "rush of poison flowing into my veins giving me a dose of pleasure that resides by the pain" is this double edged sword of being able to have the 'pleasure' of being a hot shot performer that everyone goes nuts over, but the pain is the fact that Valentino ultimately is the only reason it's able to happen for him and allowing Val to be abusive is the only way to get that fix that Angel desires so badly. Angel is basically stuck in a situation where he feels worthless without Valentino, but at the same time he absolutely hates how Valentino treats him and wishes he could get away from him. This is his dilemma, and what the song is primarily about.

[@JakethealmightyLucario]

I agree, and the Hotel is basically his Safe Haven, his comfort. He doesn’t want to admit it but, he wants help... Shows that we all have Demons inside us. Every one of us.

[@deathmetaldahlia]

Exactly. That's why this song is so powerful for many abuse and addiction survivors like myself because it shows both the pros and cons of living in such an unstable powerless dichotomy. Sometimes the addiction is the escape from abuse, and other times it is being forced into lopsided power dynamics out of necessity, being addicted to the hope of a light at the end of the tunnel. I think that's why I keep crying with every play through, not only is it an anthem to those stuck in self-made pits struggling to stay alive, it gives that advice and hope of completely breaking away from the abusive cycle and finding support to realize your full potential in safety from abusers. This was a fan-made song that Vivziepop decided to turn into a full blown professional track and music video, how amazing is that? This song made me decide to become a financial supporter of their work.

[@asktoybox]

@@deathmetaldahlia Yeah. As someone who has also been through a similar set of situations it really hit home for me, which is why I can relate to the story and song so well.

[@sadlobster1]

@@JakethealmightyLucario If the hotel IS his safe haven...why is he always trying to sabotage it

[@HoneeBear]

sadlobster1 He’s not actively trying to sabotage it. What you saw in the Pilot was Angel repaying Cherri for having his back by having her back against Sir Pentious. “I owed my girl buddy a solid.” It’s safe to assume that the “solid” is in reference to Cherri providing her presence as a comfort to Angel post-abuse/or withdrawal. But, most likely after he’s sexually assaulted since we see Cherri destroying Valentino’s shit in the MV.

[@theawesome5496]

12:34 I just realized that Angel Dust flips off Charlie. So in life Angel Dust is named Anthony and was part of the Italian Mob in the 1940's and he was hated by his family for being gay, and to my knowledge it was never revealed how he died, so him saying something about overdosing is our best bet for now. I really want to see a scene where he returns to Earth and sees what his family thinks of him and treats him after knowing what he's become. And I know he died in the 40's but it can always be in a flashback. Oh, and the pig you saw is Angel Dust's pet pig, his name is Fat Nuggets and he's just as adorable as I hoped he would be. Edit: While I was typing this, most of my comment ended up being in red text, I didn't know what that meant and now I know to late that the red text vanishes in the final comment. So now I have to rewrite all of it. I should have finished rewriting this in about 5 minutes. Edit 2: Done.

[@jjpark98]

His family being homophobic towards him would explain his drug "addiction" and eventually leading to his OD which brings him to hell. Can't wait to see where this goes. I hope Vivziepop can get the funding she needs because this show would be awesome to see on some streaming network or TV

[@thejoshh5706]

Angel died of an overdose from his own drug. Hence the name Angel Dust.

@@captainteeko4579 It's not uncommon in real life for Pimps to control their employees through getting them addicted to drugs. Being the only reliable supplier, it enslaves them to the business.

[@bjornallerdissen1697]

There a couple of things that you missed that I’m not sure others have brought up yet, first of all Cherri is blowing up signs advertising Valentino so she may be trying to launch a campaign to help Angel and the entire drugs thing may have been based on the fact that he was an Italian gangster in life in new York where his family probably dealt in drugs.

[@RandomManIncorperated]

A Mob Family That Dealt In Drugs? Did Angel's Family Not Know That Isn't Allowed in The Italian Mob. Which Brings Me To Conclusion That The Rest Of His Family Mainly his Dad & Brother Might've Been Wacked For Dealing Drugs & Another Family Might've Gotten Permission From The Don To Wack Them. Dealing With Drugs Has Never Been A Good Idea For a Mobster There's Always Someone Getting Betrayed Or There's a Rat. If You've Seen Any Gangster Movie That Brings Up What Happens To Mobsters That Deal in Drugs You Know What Happens To Them Here's a Sentence For Ya Joe Pesci's Death in Goodfellas. That's What Happens to Them

[@brizagranadeno]

Here’s something u missed in the background of the club when they’re exiting it says “it was all a dream” maybe one of them dreamt this up Edit: the smoke is the same color Valentino has in the beginning too and the cigarette is in the shape of a heart maybe showing how he wants to escape Valentino

[@mywolfpack5483]

Cherri bomb was going after Valentino’s business to trying and get Angledust away from Valentino ,who raped Angle, because she doesn’t want another person close to her going down that path again. Angle is a spider and his pet pigs name is fat nugget. Valentino is a moth. He is also Angles boss/pimp and is a mafia boss . Also there’s a comic on the hazbin hotel website that tells the story of how Angle met Charlie.

This is something I actually really like, but I dont think many other people do. Pausing to say things about the scene, and taking it in. People rarely do that but GOD I love it, seeing someone actually completely interested in the story is really cool to me! However a lot of times to people is annoying, maybe something like you could do things at the end of the video specifically with like hazbin hotel you go back to pause and talk about the scenes? Also, fun thing, just specifically just for fun, not to be a video, but some hazbin hotel characters have offical instagrams, you should look at those, not really any lore but there neat.

The guy we see Cherri Bomb remembering was a scrapped character for another series Zoophobia who now is being repurposed for Hazbin Hotel. Aside from the name (Demon Hunter) we know nothing about them, but perhaps they and Cherri might be blood related as going by Angel Dust’s family, demons related by blood share a similar appearance (all of AD’s family bear spider-like traits).

[@zetocro4364]

To my understanding, Cherri wasn't bombing just some random building. Supposedly it's Valention's (Angel's pimp) district, probably as a revenge for hurting Angel. Also there was a sign that said "it was all a dream" When Angel and Cherri left the club and exploded it, Implying that exploding the club never happened but he dreams he could just destroy it all.

Look back at the club scene and look closely at angel dusts eyes in one scene its one normal eye and the other black, but when the camera points to the roof both of his eyes are normal along with the neon sign that says "it was all a dream" that can be seen as they run out of the club.

[@wolfiegachaproductions4013]

It’s normal for Pimps to treat their workers like that if they misbehave or disrespect, etc. What Valentino is doing here is unnecessary and only doing it for his entertainment, pleasure, etc. In the beginning of Hazbin Hotel, with Angel, he gave his “services” to a guy he wasn’t supposed to. My theory is that he is sold to different people for money. Cherri bomb is his bestie, you can see while walking out Club 666, Angel Dust is holding her shoulder, showing that he does care about her. She also blows up a billboard of Valentino, probably trying to run his business into the ground to save Angel from him. Angel Dust’s pig is called Fat Nuggets. My theory is that Fat Nuggets is a service pet to help Angel through his situation. My theory for Angel pushing Charlie away is that he doesn’t really trust Charlie that much, think that she’ll hurt him, maybe because of a past memory that hurt him too, and Cherri was there to comfort him. Angel only really trusts Cherri because he was there to comfort him through his hard times. And yes, as much I hate to say, I believe Valentino raped Angel Dust, therefore he doesn’t feel so comfortable around him. Any who, thanks for reading good chad and may you have a blessing rest of your 24 hours!

[@HeeHooTheFool]

So what's going on here is somewhere around the time of the pilot. This isn't just backstory. This is the present. Angel died of a PC overdose irl, but that's not why the song is necessarily called Addict. Because we don't know this for sure, we can only theorize, but a lot of people are guessing that Valentino, the dude with the heart glasses and Angel's very abusive, physically and sexually, pimp, can create a very addictive drug, something Angel may be addicted to, which would explain why he still works for him. It's also known that Angel loves being a stripper, he's "addicted" to the attention he gets from it. He just hates what Val does to him. Valentino is a special kind of demon called an Overlord, very powerful demons who can wreck your shit (Alastor is another Overlord, for example). Val runs the porn industry in hell. This is important throughout the video because we see Cherri blowing up various porn related things, clubs, billboards, etc. Basically, Cherri, who is not by any means an Overlord, is taking on someone who is at the very least somewhat equal to Alastor in strength, all to help out her best friend Angel. On Cherri's side of things, that guy we see both in the puddle and when she says, "Your money and power," we can more than likely assume to be her deadbeat, controlling father. Cherri was an anarchist in the 80s, and she's "addicted" to the freedom to raise hell that she has now, due to the lack of controlling paternal figure and general lack of authority.

It's the first time we've really seen Angel Dust react negatively towards anyone, as usually their personality is more flippant - probably as a defense mechanism, as many people use humor, especially dark humor, in order to deal with trauma. The out-of-character response seems to be solely due to Charlie coming up behind them and touching them. Given what was revealed in the mirror, it would explain why Angel Dust wouldn't react well to someone approaching them from behind and unexpectedly touching them.

Does some body now ho is that guy all Grey on cherri's part?

[@isabellanduyt4949]

Just so you know, the pig is Angel’s pet pig named Fat Nuggets.

4:27 - Steven Z KILLER "I'm not gonna pause too much." *14 seconds later. Pauses the video... multiple times.*

Well technically, yes he is on drugs to "forget" But it's not him that's gives him the drugs if you notice when valentino uses that red smoke it's a drug to give angel pleasure, by using the pain he feels, that's the reason he says "there is another rush of poison running through my veins giving me pleasure that resides by the pain". Valentino is confirmed to not be a nice person/overlord, he abuses poor angel and forces him to do stuff while cherri is his best friend who helps him go through it while he does the same with to help her. The pig at the end is like angels service animal or more like a therapy animal for the suffering he is going through

And also, Angel’s backstory is based off of vizier’s backstory

[@captainteeko4579]

Most in depth reaction I’ve seen. Nice work my guy 👍🏼

The pimps smoke literally chains angel before he inhales it. The pimps name is valentino, runs porno studio and is an "overlord" in hell. For referance, Alister (Mr Radio Demon) is also considered an overlord.

[@brothersgt.grauwolff6716]

Valentino & Alistair are two of the Nine Overlords of Hell

[@leothecancer3554]

Here’s just a random fact about Angel Dust… He really like fish! He like Blobfish and, of coarse, Angel fish

[@Random_shhhh1]

It gets darker when you realise that Angel fell in love with Val but got tricked only because that if he fell in love with him it would be easier to Val to convince him to sign the contract. Sorry if my english isn´t that good

[@phantomghost1615]

the dude with the heart glasses is name valentino and he is Angel Dust boss and Cherri bombay was blowing up his disstrict to try to help Angel

[@orthodox7971]

It's best reaction

[@CircuitReborn]

The dude didn't die btw, he just drove through a series of trashcans and apparently a dog...hellhound?

[@tss1012]

don't know if you noticed and it might not be intentional but the cig angel threw was heart shaped

[@billlupin8345]

Angel is still smoking Valentino's cigarette in the hotel. Despite all the horrible things that happened to him, he's still Jonesing for his old life. When he catches himself, he throws it away in disgust.

Which cover of Blizzard was planning at the intro animation?
