[@ryandominiack3693]

The two songs share about 80% of the same lyrics, just presented differently. That's the point. 2 different sides of the same coin.

I’m a big Aesop fan and seeing you enjoy this is making me cheese so hard.

[@iammrwack]

:-:Well in the short time I have been listening to Aesop I myself have become a big fan. I greatly appreciate Aesop's music to the fullest. Much Much Love and Respect to you as Well @katmaczka

[@bigrob966]

These beats come from the venerable Blockhead. He met Aes at Boston University. They were both in the rap scene, but Blockhead essentially stated that hearing Aes rap made him quit rapping. Basically, he heard what greatness actually was, and realized he couldn't measure up. But goddamn can the man put down a sick beat. He produces a lot of Aes's stuff. P.S. He also produced the song I suggested yesterday; Bug Zapper :-D

[@iammrwack]

:-: Woooow you serious.??? As made that man just not want to rap just after hearing Aes Rap.. Smh what in the world.. However His beat making in Next lvl TBH. I Love the beard and Alot of Aes Beats.. That Bug Zapper beat is nice if I'm thinking of the correct track.

[@bigrob966]

@@iammrwack Yep. I wouldn't say it was in a bad way; he recognized that his skills weren't high enough to make it in the game, and as a result, he focused his energy into making beats. And I am happy he did! I'd say he has probably produced about half of Aes's beats. Him and El-P did some crazy stuff with Aes.

[@yeahbee8237]

More so called rappers of today should have done the same...

[@AerialPenn]

I first heard Labor Days and I was stuck on that album for a whole year. The replay value for that album is incredible. You can listen numerous times and you still find new lines you missed before.

[@aaronhooper3328]

Ayyy I’ve been requesting this for the longest! These are the 2 Aesop songs that got me hooked after I first heard Junkyard around 2005. Just the way he flipped Daylight into the tone of Night Light and modifying pretty much every Daylight lyric into a darker version! Great reaction as always!

[@iammrwack]

:-:I noticed that as I listen and listened more to it. I was like "Man he twisting everything from Daylight. "

[@christianperez7846]

It’s kinda tragic, because Aesop is still underground. He’s older now and nobody gives him the recognition he deserves. He’s literally the greatest mc all time

[@mightguy123456]

He gets the recognition from his peers, and arguably that’s what matters most. I mean do you really expect Drake fans/21 savage fans to “get” Aesop? He’s got a decent fan base-wouldn’t call his career a tragedy.

[@nashface1]

what makes him the greatest to me personally is that he would never call himself that. its just for us heads to know.

[@yeahbee8237]

The pinnacle of the genre

[@ThePimmy11]

It's okay man. He packs so much into his lyrics it takes a bit to get him.

[@iammrwack]

:-: Yeah lmbo tell me about it.

[@andybroberg7084]

The life’s not a bitch quote is perhaps my favorite in all of rap. Daylight was the first aes song I listened to. Love from San Antonio

[@iammrwack]

:-:Ohhhhhh..... I still Love that Quote. Just so much Beauty and Perfection behind those words.

[@theguerovaquero]

I'm also from san Antonio and the only reason I'm watching this video is for his reaction to that line haha

[@jeremyroot1759]

So glad you finally did this one. Knew it would happen at some point. Love seeing how hyped you get with aesop's lyrics

[@iammrwack]

:-: 😂😂😂😂😂 Yeahhh I get to hype sometimes.. Lol people see me and be like "you need to calm down" my response.. "You just don't understand" lol

[@mediumvillain]

this was the first aes rock song i heard 20 something years ago getting into indie hip-hop. it was so different, deep vocab, lyrics so dense with imagery but in a totally unique way

[@iammrwack]

:-: Since listening to Aes I've diced into Indie Hip Hop and Love it completely.. Now I can't say nothing about listening 20 something years ago lol. I got a good 4year in though but y'all have opened me up to alot.. Kinda weird.. I Love Indie Hip Hop and Love Indie Games 😂😂😂..

[@iammrwack]

:-: Brought you this Vinyl.??? As for Aesop we Love the Man.. The Top Artist in this WaCK Life Nation..

[@loneronin79]

Yeah, and it has a track called "Nickel-Plated Pockets" on it... Bought a 2nd copy so I could play/juggle with the instrumentals, Daylight specifically (3 instros/2accas on one 12" is a DJ dream). I'd been digging heavy into the Quannum crew (you've dug into them, now, right?) and Jurassic5 cats (plus Ninja Tune label) when buddy showed me Rhymesayers for the 1st time with this... Aes' is amazing: THE most vocabulary used in hip-hop (someone scienced it, hope you saw that)... And the art he puts in his vids is top notch, too (Jeremy Fish/No Shall Pass is my ish)...

I lived for a while in Knoxville TN while I went to community college. I played this song every single morning heading into class.

Aesop Rock! I listen on my way to work. I listen on my way home. I listen when I go on random drives with no direction just to clear my head.

[@holyvacant1427]

Hold mine is the best posse track of all time

[@feathersz1952]

i feel like everyone who listens to Aesop Rock needs to understand, he writes in metaphors. He rhymes while he's doing it, but his lyrics are DEEP. Also, Aesop Rock LITERALLY uses 3 times as many unique words per song as any other rapper out. So, vocabulary. Damn.

[@iammrwack]

:-: Yeah metaphors on top of metaphors on top of metaphors.. The man is amazing.. I honestly Love his Craft.

[@robinpeters1933]

Got stuck watching your Aes reactions tonight. Been a fan of his since these tracks were still new. It's great to see someone in as much awe of Aes as I will always be. I've always felt like these two tracks are from the perspectives of each of the "friends of polar nature" referenced near the end of each song. Either way. The duality of these songs is just jaw dropping and your reactions are always great.

[@iammrwack]

:-: Hehehehe getting stuck watching my Aes reactions is a whole rabbit whole itself lmbo.. I Absolutely LOVE the man.

@@iammrwack ayyyyy got a reply from the man, the myth, the legend!! Should do one on Preservation or Klutz. Also if you are looking for new oddities should check out Watsky which was originally on Def Poetry and then got more popular in rap. His earlier stuff is more like comedy rap with more geeky pop culture references but his later albums with songs like Ink Don't Bleed are more I feel intellectual. But keep up man and strive for that KZbin dream.

[@GentJester]

@@iammrwack oh also if you ever need ideas for music to try I listen to a plethora of different music as I myself am a music lover that could not see myself living without it, something I also see in you. You are very meticulous with how you listen from beat to lyrics and vice versa.

I do hope that your passion for things like this; reactions or even reviews; turns into something you can permanently do because your reactions are FAR more genuine than a ton of others I have found.

[@THEJPIndustry]

Btw there is a live version where he just alternates between the 2 versions, like a maniac So 1. verse is on the nightlight beat, and he raps 8 or 16 bars from nightlight, then from daylight then nightlight again. then the 2. verse is on the daylight beat, and he agian, jsut permanently switches between the version. So i guess he performed eveninglight

[@iammrwack]

:-: WOOOOW hold on wait.. If I'm reading this right he performed both track by switching back and forth verses from both tracks.? Yo stop playing.. And you saying he did this live.......

[@THEJPIndustry]

​@@iammrwack Yesnt (idk why KZbin deleted my first reply) but he performs half of each song (like when he raps "I did invent the wheel in a previous generation" the 8 bars after that are from daylight, but not the same line but daylight version, but the next bars (you get me?) Please open the genius lyrics page for both version, and listen to the live performance looking at the switching (it was uploaded 13 years ago btw) And please upload that video in Like 1 week xD

[@TheOmegaVision]

"I can spot a Duck Battalion by the Charlie Chaplin waddle" is such a great lyric because it requires interpreting multiple layers of cultural and historical references--basically he's saying "I know fascists/Nazis when I see them." Charlie Chaplin had a mustache just like Hitler's and once played a character based on Hitler in the film The Dictator, and the trademark high-stepping marching style of Nazi German soldiers was commonly referred to as "the goose step."

[@marcuss707]

Have you ever listened to 'no regrets' by Aesop?. If not it's definitely worth a listen.

Back in history, Aesop is a kind of performer performer and poet. He was pretty much a jester to the king. Although he was hilarious, most of his jokes were aimed at the king and he would get punished for it soAesop the original back into the whatever hundreds started writing i metaphors and codes still joking about the king except the king had no clue . Aesop rock does the exact same. He’s never going to say I walked down the block to the store he’s going to say I made my way through the concrete jungle filled with savage . Animals made my way to the watering hole, filled with beast and cannibals.

Daylight is a nice critique on the ignorance of others who are arrogant enough to ignore the struggles of the laborer (in context of the Labor Days album), whereas Nightlight is a critique on the personality of those arrogant peoples and how they portray themselves as the commander of their destiny, which unfortunately creates the position the laborer is in.

Here we go hear intro lingering right where the spiritual lyrics breathe Light into Night's air, brightly enlightening my mind quite unfair, but Aesop just Rocks me with rhymes so i dont care, when the drums in my ears hear the bass line appear im steered uncontrolably through each of the gears, exploring this journey until my necks hurting my head wont quit nodding and bobbing and turning, a twist in the torso my shoulders start rolling, hands start conducting while music keeps on flowing, shit... phones bout to die so ill hurry and post this

KZbin Charlie Chaplin and you can see his signature waddle in Modern Times (a classic comedic film that’s also an indictment of industrial capitalism).

[@mrbeaujangles515]

These reaction videos are awesome, sorry i'm catching up so late to you channel....Aesop is wild stuff man, helps to be real high and not care too much about each individual bar, it's more about the theme and stream of consciousness...all of his albums have absolute bangers tracks throughout and all different...1 question, do you have like a pre determined amount of high you get before these videos lol?

[@iammrwack]

:-: It's ok. Better late then never people always say. I wouldn't so much always say being high helps also as a listener on his music you have to try to listen. Also it's not really so much a pre determined amount of high.. Its just coming down to pressing record and doing the dang thing lol.

What's up my warrior brotha. I haven't looked through the comments or finished the video yet but I wanna make the joke you said "it sounds dark already" in my head I said thats because its the nightime part hahaha much love. And you need to look up "slavic travels" channel he has alot of Aesop rock lyric videos easy to follow along with. I want to help you grow since I've been her since the first aes reaction. That being said you need to find slavic travels Aesop rock "mars attacks" if you really wanna see what aes can do. But much love my brotha

[@literaticrux8292]

I'm sure your comments below (ain't read em) informed that Nightlight is the diametric opposite of Daylight and many of the lyrics are inversion. A clever conceit from one of the best artists in popular music.

[@iammrwack]

:-: Well you are completely right. I have been informed of that content. I still say it's geniusly clever as heck. I don't believe any other artist has done such a thing to make a track Soooo amazing.. The only thing I disagree with is the popular music. Sad to say but AES is not among popular music of today.

I know this is older, but you should react to "Stepfather Factory" by El-P if you haven't already.

The track "Alchemy" of this Aes album is also a fucking banger.
