Boldy James & Real Bad Man - Killing Nothing INITIAL REACTION

[@christophers7160]

The best reviewer in the game! Once I got my ears to conform to the non-alchemist production it really grew on me, and you said something that really hit home his chorus flows have stepped up big time to the point where he’s approaching Banks territory and that’s rarefied air

[@BSideRapReviews]

My guy I appreciate that!! ✊🏾 It was similar process for me. Now dont get me wrong, I def prefer Boldy over Alchemist beats but I enjoy him branching out and working with other producers and Real Bad Man is talented af. You ain’t lied, he does use choruses quite a bit but idk if he has a album where they’re this well written - Manger on McNichols only one probably. Also, I didn’t really realize it before but every song on Real Bad Boldy had a chorus as well.

You deserve at least 600 000 subscribers bro - please keep at it! We appreciate the quality of these reactions, sure enough more people will discover this channel.

[@BSideRapReviews]

Haha I appreciate it - ima keep the vids coming! Man I actually like the steady growth. For one, I love how the community’s been growing. I like interacting with y’all and it’s close knit to the point where I know and remember some of y’all’s fav rappers and music taste lol and I know it wouldn’t be the same with a ton of subscribers. 2 I work a corporate job, so i don’t mind flying under the radar. I’d love to not have to explain to HR why I got so many videos about Hitler wearing Hermes 😂😂😂

[@xInsaneJuggernautx]

Definitely agree that this album felt complete from start to finish. Think this was a good follow up to his Alchemist projects from last year, really love what Boldy brings with the vivid imagery

[@BSideRapReviews]

All facts! I love that fact that he’s still improving and progressing a rapper despite being a vet for all practical purposes

[@seangall5965]

great reaction as per usual… I’m waiting for the day you get your flowers as a reaction channel! Promise you’ll remember me when the channel blows up lol

[@BSideRapReviews]

Haha I got you bro Fasho!! ✊🏾 I couple ppl been saying I should blow up - and I appreciate the compliment but I ain’t gon lie I enjoy the smaller size and steady growth. Right now I get to respond to all the comments and a lot of the channel watchers are really smart and knowledgeable about hip hop so it’s been leading to great discussions on most videos. I still hope it blows up one day but I’m enjoying how it’s been growing and I appreciate all the support!

[@VWKTV]

loving these reactions! can't wait for the tana talk 3 one when you get that far in the series :) btw i really enjoyed flee lord's newest project

[@BSideRapReviews]

Preciate that! I’m SUPER excited for that. TT3 was actually my intro to Griselda. I remember exactly where I was and how I felt when I first heard it. I skipped past intro on my first listen but first line I heard from Benny was “I stole a pack then I sold it back/ we rollin in lacs and got fold up gats with shoulder straps” and my ears immediately perked up lol! I’m sleep I didn’t even check it out yet - ima tap in!

[@rianeagan2693]

It’s crazy.. this album grew on me so much and I absolutely love it

[@BSideRapReviews]

Bro you ain’t the only one! I got this in my top 10 AOTY so far! I def liked it off first listen but I’m even higher on it now and I know multiple ppl who’s rap opinion I respect say this is one of the best albums of the year

[@rianeagan2693]

@@BSideRapReviews you should react to manger on mcnichols by boldy big bro….

[@BSideRapReviews]

@@rianeagan2693 I was planning on reacting to it as part of the reacting Griselda project series. It’s technically before he was with Griselda but I was planning on doing it as a bonus reaction….only problem is I’m going chronologically and I’m only in 2017 😂 I love that project though

[@dylangrieb5986]

I’m commenting early because i haven’t heard this album yet but i’m SUPER EXCITED to play this album. Boldy James has been my favorite feature artist lately, and i never checked out his Real Bad Man produced albums yet

[@BSideRapReviews]

I feel you on that. I didn’t have time to make a reaction video til Monday so I had to avoid the album all weekend lol. I think you’ll rock with it - some of Boldy’s best rapping imo. I will say, I think this most will agree that this joint is considerably better than their other album but curious to see what you think once you hear both.

[@dylangrieb5986]

@@BSideRapReviews i played the album last night a couple hours after i commented! I completely loved it. For first listen, i loved this more than i did Bo Jackson and Super Tecmo Bo on first listen. Boldy James is definitely one of the best rappers right now i’ve realized. His delivery is exactly my taste and his lines are so great throughout the album. Junglepussy is one of the best rappers right now too i think. Her EP Jp5000 from this year is amazing

[@Kenpachi4207]

Appreciate it bro. Good lookin.

[@BSideRapReviews]

My guy! All day bro - Preciate you! ✊🏾

[@Doctor_Beats]

Eyyy I felt like I’d see you peep this album. Game Time, 190 Bands, Cash Transactions, 5 Mississippi my early favorites but this might be my favorite Boldy project, at least contesting with The Price of Tea in China.

[@BSideRapReviews]

Yezzir! Tried to get it out a lil earlier but I been dragging my feet lol. Yeah those been my fav joints plus Open Door. I think everyone would have expectations seeing those 3 on the same joint and they didn’t disappoint! TPOTIC is my fav Boldy album (still is after this) but I honestly think this joint is better. His rapping def is better on this one. I do think Manger on McNichols and Bo Jackson are a step above this one. If I had to rank best and fav I’m going… Best: 1. Manger on McNichols 2. Bo Jackson 3. This Fav 1. TPOTIC 2. Manger on McNichols 3 Bo Jackson

[@Doctor_Beats]

@@BSideRapReviews yeah Open Door is wild too, it was one of the singles he put out before the whole project came out, so I listened to it enough times that I got it out of my system haha. But Rome is very high up on the last of cats I’m eager to hear any new shit from, Boldy is up there too. Boldy said he’s got a project done with Futurewave too, I’m hoping that is dope; the project Rome did with Futurewave gets a lot of replay from me. There was just a track put out recently called POZA with Rome Streetz and Rick Hyde over an Alc beat, you gotta peep that.

[@scroobly2636]

i love everyone in the griselda sphere. i think westside gunn is my favorite but i have to say i’ve never heard a bad boldy verse ever, and i def consider him the most consistently good one. everything he put out is at least good. usually great. he has a really cool way of enunciating things. also he has my favorite abstract drug bars, like he will say a bunch of words and i know he’s talking about selling crack but i have no clue what any of it means. very solid album and all the features are good. i really liked the spanish part from crime apple too. also “don’t be another face tat on my bro” is great that made me pause

[@BSideRapReviews]

I’m right there with you. Gunn isn’t the best but he’s entertaining af, stays true to that Griselda sound, and I’m always most excited for his releases. Crazy thing about Boldy’s consistency is the amount of projects he’s put out to go along with it. I think this is his 7th project since 2020 which is more than any other Griselda member I think. He’s really found his footing - I honestly didn’t think he was that great of a rapper prior to TPOTIC but his lyrics got more personal and gritty, he found his signature sound with alchemist, and he’s steadily improved as a lyricist. Crime be hit or miss to me sometimes but when he’s on he’s on! Yeah he’s the best with incorporating bilingual bars imo. I like how he can flow in and out of it and typically he uses words and phrases that you don’t really have to know Spanish to understand.

[@deadlyDM]

Top of the top 10 for sure

[@BSideRapReviews]

Ay bro you know a lil something hahah! I got me Ten08 slightly above this one but this joint fire. I thin rapper here just as good as Mr. Ten08 I just rock w it h the futurewave production on that one a lil more than real bad man’s production here. Just like you was saying on the Roc vid - this year been CRAAAAZY

[@deadlyDM]

@@BSideRapReviews Hard picks. I have a sleeper going into my top 5. DJ Muggs x RIGZ 'Gold' album. Looking forward to your end of the year recap and picks. Great channel and content. Salute
