[@stevehardison8768]

The voice in the Interludes is someone imitating the voice of Comedian Bernie Mac.

[@stevehardison8768]

Jesus Walks was the only song I heard your dad curse while listening to. Remember Kanye West was snubbed as Jesus Walks was removed from the Stellar Gospel Awards, as Christians protested Jesus Walks causing Jesus Walks to be removed from the Ballot.

[@richiestarks609]

Not only did Kanye rapped, he produced the whole entire album. A well rounded artist.

[@AveryB.0]

Well rounded is an understatement. Kanye one of the greatest musicians and artist ever in my opinion

[@richiestarks609]

@@AveryB.0 In my opinion, Prince is the greatest musician and artist ever. As far as saying he is well rounded; he has a great producer ear. He can’t play much instruments. He samples and brings together great musicians to make legendary masterpieces. Gotta give it to my man NO ID for mentoring Kanye. Don’t get me wrong he is a creative genius but not the greatest ever.

[@AveryB.0]

@richiestarks6163 I can respect that for sure as Prince definitely was the man! I guess to me as an hip hop fan I like Kanye's songs more than Prince's. Also Kanye got a crazy discography as an artist, but also the things he produced are also iconic like songs and albums for Jay Z and Wayne

[@haychlc]

@@AveryB.0 honestly I agree. It’s hard to place a top musician of all time because there’s been so many great ones like The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Micheal Jackson, Prince etc but Kanye is definitely in the conversation

​@@richiestarks609Kanye is pretty cold on the drum machine.

[@ambercontreras1110]

When your dad said "I've never heard anything like this before" with tears in his eyes" my heart nearly burst. That's exactly how I felt as a kid in Chicago listening to Kanye on the train platform - this album is a masterpiece. Heavy and joyous transcends genres and time. Couple fun facts Twista, also from Chicago is so fast he actually held the Guinness Word Record for most words in a minute for a time. And Anna Nicole Smith was in the video for Workout Plan such a fun tongue -in-cheek track.

[@snowdjagha]

I love how your dad pays full attention to the lyrics and understands them and does this so well that even gets teary eyed. Him not being a hip hop head and being so moved by these songs it just shows how much sensitivity for music your dad has. I love this channel!

FOR REAL! I felt the same. I love this album and didn't think I could "love it" more than I already did, but this reaction just changed that.

[@jaseallenson316]

To me, this albums production is elementary compared to Ye's production on Commons Be. Its so much more fine tuned and elevated. And common absolutely kills it lyrically. An absolute masterpiece.

[@TheWhitemic]

The fact that Kanye opens with…”if this is your first time hearing this, you are about to experience something so cold” is the best part of the first 6 min and 11 seconds.

[@oh_thats_netta2754]

Back in 2004 this was the most groundbreaking thing I ever heard. Dr. Dre used to be considered the best producer at the time, but Kanye West's new sound really gave him some competition

[@seankiesling2054]

Yes... extremely groundbreaking. And, in 2004 I was with the one and only girl I've ever loved who unfortunately miscarriaged our child and this album was not only the hottest thing out at that very moment in my life we would take car rides listening to this album. So, on top of it being innovative and groundbreaking it holds a ton of sentimental value to someone like me. So many memories attached to this album for me and hearing it all over again is SO nostalgic its almost spooky and almost a little overwhelmingly nostalgic/sentimental. This album is just simply a master piece

[@DaveTheDopeFiend]

That's the comedian Bernie Mac that starts the album out with that skit I've enjoyed your reaction videos for a while now glad to see some sponsorship coming in let's keep those numbers growing. There's a song called Walk This Way with Run DMC and Aerosmith it came out in 1986 roughly. I think your dad will enjoy that. That is literally the 1st rap song to crossover. That's also the year of the Beastie Boys Licensed to Ill album a true true hip hop classic

[@MzNina313]

He did this album, pushed it, made videos for all without the help of his label. Did with his own money and blew up. He really truly is the goat

[@jayhearn8477]

Kanye actually recorded “Through The Wire” with his jaw wired shut. That’s why he says “I drink a Boost for breakfast and an Ensure for dessert, somebody ordered pancakes I just dipped the syzurp” (also a reference to rappers back then would mix cough syrup with sprite or Mountain Dew). Also “When it All Falls Down” originally sampled Lauren Hill and Lauren wouldn’t clear the sample, so they couldn’t use it, that’s why he says at the end of it “Selena you just like a safe belt, you saved my life” because she came in at the very last minute to sing that part and get it on the album.

[@taneshah.1260]

Lauryn doesn't clear anything, apparently. They tried to use a line from one of her songs in "Hamilton" and she wouldn't let them. 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@juxtaposebeauty247]

I had just dropped out of college (the only one of my mothers 4 kids to do so) when this album came out and it was so validating and stated everything I was feeling. It made me feel so seen.

[@STAR234GAMEPLAY]

This will forever be my favourite Kanye album cause of the themes talked about. Not saying his other albums don’t talk about similar themes but every song feels so conscious of either Kanye himself or the society we live in. It’s hard to replicate such a piece of art after someone starts to experience fame and riches.

50:00 the rapper Twista featured on “Slow Jams” once held the Guinness World Record for fastest rapper. He’s also from Chicago, Kanye’s hometown. Been famous since the 90’s so having him as a feature was pretty cool

[@MichaelCouture87]

I could write a full page on what I loved about this reaction, but I'll keep it simple and just say that a reaction to the Kanye documentary (Netflix) would be incredible...and it doesn't even need to be the normal reaction (directly to the content), but simply having your dad watch the documentary and you guys having a talk in the backyard/garden about it would be dope! There are so many behind-the-scenes windows into this album that help to build the full picture of just how incredible it was.

[@JoshToksPop85]

Dad was describing the video without ever seeing the video

[@Macadilehunter17]

I want to shout you out and its for a couple of reasons. 1. Listening to black music and having an open mind to their struggle, how they see their world, and not just focusing on cuss words or whatever, I mad respect that. 2. Catching melodic interpretations and being open to the explanation of bars. 3. Bridging the gap and showing what being a dad is. Thats big time in my book, it really shows you enjoy exploring what your son is into 👊🏾🤜🏾🤛🏾

Kanye was a very underated rapper back then......super clever and his cadence was great. Because his rhymes were easily understandable people confuse it with simplicity but if you look closer you see the multi syllable rhymes and internal rhyme schemes that make him sneaky technical .

[@ddl3718]

It’s because he had to prove he could rap. At the time he was called crazy for being a producer “who could rap”. After this and late registration he reserved his real rapping for special occasions (ie songs on watch the throne, and the recent off the grid).

Awesome job guys, like fucking really awesome job!! I remember hearing Through The Wire and being blown away. When the album dropped I sat in my car and heard all of it. I got home and made all of my siblings get in my car I drove around and made them listen to it. It was like I kidnapping but they had to listen to it. It changed my life for six months this CD didn't leave my truck. I would buy it for people just so they could experience it, I probably bought 7 copies. My friends and I still talk about this album till this day. You guys have a great relationship keep it up guys. Thanks for the experience.

My dad lost his sight when I was a teenager so I started driving him everywhere, his doctors appt, get his prescriptions.. anywhere and everywhere. We used that time to really bond and one of the ways we bonded was sharing music. He really enjoyed Palmdale by Afroman. It would be awesome if I could see your dad's reaction to it. Enjoy your and cherish the time with your dad. I lost my dad a few years ago and cherish those moments everyday.

Imagine listening to 'The college dropout' for the first time again...Lucky dad. The way your dad gets chocked up over songs warms my soul, this has solidified my love for this channel. Can I borrow him??

You 2 are just wonderful humans. I've been watching since day 1 and I love the concept and how you present it. There is so much respect and admiration between you guys and its just lovely. Great you have some sponsorship, it's deserved. Keep it up.

wow! thanks so much matthew!

Dad: "Whoa! Shhhhhit!" Best part. When dad just couldn't express himself in any other way. Forget any other accolade, THIS is what makes an album great. Classic. Also, "being able to rap that fast...", time for "Rap God" reaction

Fun fact for your dad Twista once held the title of fastest English-speaking rapper in the world according to Guinness World Records in 1992, being able to pronounce 598 syllables in 55 seconds.

I remember this so well. My Dad was the one to introduce Kanye to me with Through the Wire and Jesus Walks. The album was and is everything.

My boy was smooth with the ad drop

You guys have done great, so cool to see you getting sponsors. I'm sure your dad has had a successful career previous to this, but he must be extremely proud of your work in building this brand. Congratulations Also I'd love to see you guys make your way through kanyes whole discography

❤️ thanks for the support Barlos! We will do more Kanye 🤞🏼

[@sejomehic]

Your dad and you are so adorable and loveable😃😂 Your pops is an pretty understanding and empathic guy. Great to see you guys reacting to rap and bond over the lyrics, sounds, interpretations and everything. Kanye is a genius, some people just don't know yet. Just like Mozart, Bach, Mondriaan, Da Vinci etc
