My son went to school with her. He said that she was super cool with everybody on campus. And she goes back to visit.

[@cheriejohnson7520]

I like the direction you put into your commentary. I think that those who love every part of making music into something worth listening to got sick of the garbage noise and were searching for real. That’s why the Drake and Kendrick grabbed everyone’s attention and why Kendrick blew up. We wanted fresh, real astrstry

[@Zinetha]

Agreed. No matter the genre, hit songs come and go, but true art is timeless and will sound just as good decades later as it did today.

[@weirdhousewivesclub]

I think Doechii is a fantastic, well rounded artist. Because she speaks speaks to real shit in her lyrics, a lot of folks want to malign her as Harriet Tubman music but personally I see activism AND party in her music, and that is what a lot of people I think can really connect with. I'm glad to see more artists like her getting their flowers.

[@lotusinn3]

Also the “Harriet Tubman music” malign is so stupid considering the what the alternative often is. Commentary and artistry combined shouldn’t be considered substandard.

[@prodtre]

@@lotusinn3 funniest thing is the people saying that dont realize without that quote on quote "harriet tubman music" the artist they listen to most likely wouldn't exist. what you said about activism and party both being in her music also applies to someone like kendrick too when they call his stuff "protest music". hiphop has always been that way besides just the party stuff, their is equal amount of activism as much of the bops and party stuff. problem is anyone who knows even a small amount about hiphop know that isnt what hiphop was built off of. you can not like it, but if you cant respect it you just dont respect hiphop at all. i for one can care less about someone's input who thinks that ignorantly, if you think hiphop is just 808s, memes, blowing up on tiktok, and sales numbers then you lost the plot its simple as that.

[@seanyoung9014]

Harriet Tubman music as an insult is the wildest shit I've ever heard.

[@dexteruziel4276]

Knox...you knox hill certified ❤❤❤

[@saggilennox9788]

Love that Doechii is getting more shine. She's great. I remember one of my favorite songs as a kid was from Nas - I Can. I had to be 8 at the time. But I thought all of hiphop was that inspiring. It made me sad when i realized it wasnt all that way. Im so glad to see how people are requesting more from the genre of rap/hiphop than has been given in recent years. Happy New Year!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@sunnygee5521]

Cosign this!

[@Docmatema]

I grew up listening to that kind of HipHop, which is why I never caught on to trap/mumble rap. Fast-forward to now, my 8 year old daughter knows I Can word for word😁 hoping to get more artists like Nas' messaging

[@vaughn-chemoody3340]

Well said brother. Happy new year to you and yours. Praying for a speedy recovery for mom dukes

[@KnoxHill]

🙏🙏 Appreciate it. And happy new year!

[@danielakinsanya8356]

HAPPY NEW YEAR KNOX HILL 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@KnoxHill]

You too 🎉🎉

[@robthegod1]

Using Harriet Tubman as a roast is brazy. People who don’t like creative or deep hip hop should just be quiet and got bumped their dusty Trinidad James album and let us be. Even gangsta rap of the 90s had bars and social messages.

[@KnoxHill]

Wait who used Harriet Tubman as a roast?! I feel like I’m missing context here

[@robthegod1]

@ there is a narrative that she makes quote Harriet Tubman music and it spread.

[@vanessaseymour2634]

​@KnoxHill There was a White record producer that said Kendrick and Doechii were too socially conscious. They were activists and the old school soul samples were "unc music". He got dragged😂

[@weirdhousewivesclub]

​@@KnoxHillpeople were saying that Doechii makes 'Harriet Tubman music' and using it in a pejorative way

[@KnoxHill]

Thanks for informing me! I’m catching up on all things Doechii and am still diving into her world so it’s good to have this context. You’re right that is a wild and broad ass brush to paint her with and try to dismiss her message. Racially charged as well. But it’s not a new trend unfortunately. This always happens to any rap that’s deemed too “conscious”. Same sh*t different day I guess. I’ll keep fighting and trying to spread the message of consciousness over here. 2025 is going to be a battle and I’m ready for it

[@melaniemccoy8761]

I'm excited for this year. 2024 was a great year for hip hop. Felt like I was in the 90s early 00. Beef, and albums dropping like it's 🔥. Thanks for all you contribute.

[@tondrabrown7704]

Happy New Year everyone. Much love from NOLA ❤ in the mist of what's going on down here right now!!

[@KnoxHill]

I hope you and your family are safe 🙏 Terrible to hear the news and am praying for the entire community down there. Awful.

[@tondrabrown7704]

@KnoxHill It's really a time Knox, but God will prevail! The Sugarbowl is minutes away! Smdh...

[@Birdiealway]

Praying 🙏🏾 for all those who are suffering from horrible tragedy. Stay strong praying for your city!

[@tondrabrown7704]

@Birdiealway Thank you, we all need it!

[@nitab5734]

Happy New Year as well, praying for your city

[@elimmares]

I agree. What you say reminds me of two powerful artists. One makes art that invites viewers/listeners to their and their people’s culture. And for their people, to walk in pride of their culture. They lift people up with their projects. They have great numbers but don’t do it for the numbers. Then the other, another great artist but not a competitor to the first I mentioned when it comes to the art. But people like to compare the two because of numbers. They hold the latter up to such high esteem solely because of numbers and profits. But again, the art, the impact. There is no comparison. Love your & Deochii’s take

[@theressak]

I think i speak for most when i say we will still watch some Doechii reactions/breakdown. Happy New Years 🎉

[@cjsantacruz-gv1cq]

Ive been around this channel, i know a lot of your personal challenges. You're a soldier and keep going strong. No matter how long it takes to make a video, a reaction, etc. the content remains fire. (Kendrick might not drop as often, but his content keeps fans around, your content keeps me coming back. Timing isn't everything, it's the product at the end, that matters). 💯 Loyalty. 🙏 Keep up the content, there's always someone waiting for it

[@phillydabest1232]

Happy New Year KH! Doechii has a show called “Denial Is A River” premiering tomorrow at 11 AM ET on her KZbin channel. Also, we have a new Lil Baby album coming Friday called “WHAM”.

[@cocoochwada9371]

We're here for you, Knox. Sorry for everything you and your family have gone through. Say strong brother. Can't wait to hear your next tracks. Big love from Italy.

[@Gogida]

Happy new year knox! Thanks for the 2024 run, Shit was awesome! I would miss so many references in the lyrics ong

[@Nanersbananers]

Great conversation. Thanks for speaking on this.

[@shermanwing9593]

Great insight, have yourself a great year. You are one of the best, Knox Hill certified my dude!

[@greatsweetnice]

I appreciate you for this video. Thank you.

[@selinahoang4236]

I always appreciate how eloquently you express yourself to get your points across. I agree that the works that were released this yr made it one of the best and most interesting yrs of hiphop that we have had in a long time, though I am speaking as a casual listener. Trying to understand the messages and symbolism in the lyrics is exactly why I've been drawn to the genre way more than previously.

[@ReincarnatedStargazer]

Starting the year off with a Doechii reaction. Take my views!

[@CloudslnMyCoffee]

you can’t take the gains for granted, the fight for the soul of music continues

[@TULIP-py4ur]

Happy New Year Knox!!! I wish you the best for 2025!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Nothin000000]

Knox you the man! And the man of the house. Keep it going keep it moving. I love how much you see

[@DOUBLEJOE850]

Dang Knox. I had no idea you were going through all that. But thank God that you and your family have made it to see another year. Happy new year 🎆

[@Simulate]

Very well said! Happy New Year! I found your channel this past year during the beef and I'm so glad I did. Love your perspective on the culture and looks forward to your 2025 content!

[@pierre459]

Thank you for this vid. I feel like we're swimming upstream when it comes to artistic and conscience music in hip hop. Being an old school head, I haven't felt this good about the Hip Hop genre since the 90's. I grew up on conscience rap from the likes of Public Enemy, KRS-One, X-Clan, and the list goes on. Not to mention the artists that stirred sh** up like Ice Cube and Nas. I grew up in a time where your pen meant something. For me, ever since the turn of the century, Hip Hop has been dumbed up and watered down. However, little did I know, there was always a light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks to Kendrick, J-Cole, Tyler the Creator, and now Doechii (but mainly K-Dot), I'm finding myself appreciating the genre more than I had in years. As Doechii eloquently stated, don't let these opps create the narrative that uplifting Black culture is wack, stupid, and terrible music. The worst line from the rap beef was when Drake said that Kendrick was rapping like he was trying to free the slaves. That got under my skin. Hip Hop is Black culture for the culture. Don't lose your soul trying to appease the masses. Keep that sh** rooted in the culture, and it will manifest itself in the music. One love.

[@ramonajackson189]

Happy New Year! Thank you for your clean, pure, breakdown. I appreciate your analysis over this past year and look forward to future. Peace n light be with you and your family. Your Savannah GA supporter. Blessings on blessings. " they not like ". dats LAW

[@Lockstepper]

Hip hop is on its own circadian rhythm again. So happy to see the genre going conscious again.

[@abhii8713]

Happy new year🎉

[@Illthallion-Hero]

Damn this was a great video here by Knox. 2025 is the year that the surface level trash hip-hop gets shunned and the soul of hip-hop resurfaces

[@seanyoung9014]

We can hope. It's been a really long run for the celebration of ignorance.

[@LTNyota]

Thank you for this post. You are amazing!!!

[@Natlove007]

Knox Hill! I love your channel, your breakdown, and all the love you give to the culture.

Happy new year!

[@lleldridge1]

Thanks Knox, happy new year! ☮

[@stephinitely1275]

I so agree this year (well last year) has been the year. Doggy style was one of the first albums that I learnt off by heart word by word when that came out. I still think the smoke up tour was one of the best and the production, oh my god!! At the beginning when the skeleton hand comes down insane do you still have that on DVD. This has been the first year of me in long time getting excited again the way used to.

[@adamstl314]

You nailed it Knox! Happy 2025!🎉 Blessing to everyone!👍🏽😇🙏🏼

[@Jadaki]

Always appreciate the content, hope 2025 goes better for you and your family!

The Black delegation has already taken you, Knox. We love you all the way from South Africa ❤️👌🏾🇿🇦 My dad has stage 4 cancer too and your reactions really give me time away from that lingering anxiety. We appreciate you, man. And I love Doechii too. She's brilliant. Happy new year 🎊

[@JoeyDecay]

I think you are great Knox. There's a reason I've been consistently watching your channel for 5 years now, since m2bmb. Which is probably a record for my attention. You put in 10 times the work most other reactors do. You bring something more than entertainment, and thats a lot of knowledge. Its easy for someone to hit play and listen, comment on a few things in the song and throw it up on the internet, and I guess a lot of people like that overreacting stuff. I like that you're honestly treating this like a college course, which i have thought for a while could be a possibility. I mean, if there's pansy-queer theory, or whatever, then why not hip-hop theory? I've been saying this for a while.

[@bethstratton3391]

Point well made Knox. Hip hop is history (and now becoming even more herstory too), change, struggle, drama and soul. Let’s not as fans of the genre allow Rap to be “all about the money”, let’s support those who stand for the depth and the “Word”. Kat Williams spoke a lot of truth, when money does all the talking it’s time to do the walking - back to the roots and culture and away from the capitalistic boast!

[@nitab5734]

Heyyy Knox, happy new year to you and your family🎉praying for everyone a healthy healing. Thanks for all you do, love your reactions/breakdowns🙏🏾🙂

[@arwash6969]

Well said!!!!!! Let’s get back to real hip-hop!! the lyrics!!!!!! the bars! the base lines etc!!!

[@izamalcadosa2951]

Rhapsody and Doechii are great lyricists and story tellers! Snow the Product is another fantastic female MC!! The issue I see with the music industry and most youngsters that like "rap" is that they don't like and appreciate real, true hip hop music! Rhapsody, Doechii and Snow The Product make real hip hop music but most don't/won't appreciate them! They'll rather listen to Nicki Minaj, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, as far as the females rappers are concern! We got rid of Iggy Azalea years ago! It's time to get rid of the remaining, wack, lame female rappers in the game!! "Alligator Bites Never Heal!" is a great mix-tape! She came out with a mix tape in 2022 and another one in 2024! Us, true, real, hip hop heads will always love the real artform! Great video, Knox!!

[@loveshot98]

There's an image in female hip-hop that sells and both artists and fans partake in it because it's mainstream and it gives money. I agree 100% with you, artists like Doechii, Rapsody, Little Simz, etc., fly under the radar because they act and put out music that folks only consider cold/digestable/acceptable from male rappers. It's such a pity because we're all humans, we all go through hardships, and have complex thoughts and ideas that we can put out into art. We need to keep pushing these artists who still hold true love and care for the craft

[@exusialikesapple9325]

Last time I was this early she was disappointed.

[@amadiroyal3910]

Happy New Year Knox. Well said. We're looking at a Capitalism vs Consciousness type of rap. Amd for the first time in years, I am genuinely excited for rap and for a female rapper. It's time we say goodbye to the Sexxy Redds, the Ice Spices and welcome to the Doechiis. Cause if there's any part of rap that really needed rejuvenation, it's the female aspect.

[@johnnygutierrez9855]

The truth nice way to start 2025 Knox

You should break down your own piece of music and tell us what was going on in your head when you wrote a line,or how you made certain words rhyme. Stuff like that in 2025 would be cool to see
