A little about me and this channel:
My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ KZbin. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of KZbin I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on KZbin won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This KZbin channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different

[@sparkysjoint1616]

Dude... this whole album is legit, and one of a kind. You might as well put the whole album on your list.

[@gemma3954]

I second that!

[@Allison_Chaynes]

You literally said what I was thinking. Portishead is sick!!!!!

[@ysmaboy]

I tried saving the songs to my phone... You're absolutely RIGHT Hearing these songs individually doesn't work. It's necessary to listen to the entire record to feel it the way it should be.

[@Allison_Chaynes]

@@ysmaboy That's not exactly what he said. Individually they do all work. And yes, the whole album is great as well.

[@robertpearson8788]

Straight facts, memories

[@aventador82]

This is Trip Hop, man. And Portishead are amazing. You need to check out this whole live, it's a true masterpiece

[@gyrick1]

this is seriously the most heart-felt, gut-wrenching, saddest song ever. Brilliantly written, sung and performed. This live album is legendary, and the this group is amazing. Grats for doing this one, it was an emotional ride.

[@chrisfeld3650]

I've described Portishead, pronounced portis-head, if no one has corrected that, as depressing and sexy. It's like Massive Attack, or Tricky. Good, sexy beats and vocals in this weird environment of music that spans classical to funk to hip-hop to rock. Look at Black Steel from Tricky, he goes straight into percussion with a sexy voice on a, Ice Cube song? I could be wrong. Brass tacks, if you want a baby making album to play to get things started, Portishead: Dummy, Massive Attack: Mezzanine, Tricky: Maxinque, so good. I mean, on their own. But, for the bedroom, pretty good!

[@padmelotus]

​@@chrisfeld3650i love Black Steel by Tricky, too. Its a cover of, "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos" by Public Enemy. The original has more lyrics if I remember rightly.

[@johnmccullough6540]

It’s trip-hop. Try “Wandering Star” or “Glory Box”

[@maha77]

Glory Box is a classic

[@jasondaniels640]

Wandering star is a all time fav... Portishead is just dope AF!!!!

[@laineydavey]

"Numb" is my favourite.

[@nitaherman5544]

Wandering star is from another planet! 😍

[@xx-ug9hn]

Sour Times

[@gunhedd5375]

Love, love, love Portishead. (Should you choose to explore, there’s Massive Attack, Sneaker Pimps, Hooverphonic... a very cool sub-genre.)

[@andidreyes5323]

Love you choices!

[@JepReacts]

Sneaker pimpssss!!!

[@voiceover2191]

Don't forget Tricky

[@JacobGorny]

Don't forget Red Snapper

[@realest84ify]

@@voiceover2191 that falls in line with massive attacks

[@dealiecolburn7060]

Love Portishead! They don’t get enough recognition. Please do Glory Box! It’s 🔥

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

Her voice breaks my heart in this song. Truly one of the greatest performances in music history in my mind.

[@southbayspike]

I absolutely LOVE the trip-hop genre. So much chill music.

[@PigsHalo]

This album was the best album the year it came out. This is the early 90s. Trip hop pioneers. You can hear their influence in so many other bands today. Keep going with Portishead.

[@MrWestie1985]

Probably the best album of any year, ever ✌️

[@SquirrelPotatoes]

This music style is called Trip Hop, if you like it you should check out Tricky - She Makes me Wanna Die or Christiansands

[@glenjohnson9128]

Tricky is awesome

[@gemma3954]

And Tricky - “Overcome”, and “Hell is round the corner”

[@mori1bund]

Every song from Tricky's Maxinquaye album is an excellent choice.

[@nyborg6425]

yes! Tricky is so good,,,good call

[@neohybrid7836]

Overcome is my favorite one! ❤️❤️

[@meghanmonroe]

First time I heard this amazing song was in an old Toyota Corolla, during a thunderstorm, watching the wipers move in time to the beat. I'll keep that memory forever. Try their song "All Mine"

[@erinedge1767]

Love Portishead. My fave decompress music....Pour a glass of wine, light some candles, crank it up, and turn off the lights.

[@dickmonkey-king1271]

Glad there's other dudes who do this too.

[@sarahosty8066]

Highly recommend Portishead Glory Box,

[@glenjohnson9128]

Kate Bush "This Woman's Work" ....

[@alanmcclure9546]

First time I heard Portishead(Glory Box) I fell in love, then I watched the Video, and must say, I would marry Beth Gibbons at the drop of a hat... this woman Rocks my Very Soul!

[@WeirdAlpha]

wow i havent listened to them in a long time. and it really needs to be loud or headphones to get the full experience. im glad you apprieicated it

[@jr49022]

Love Portishead, love trip hop -- I will say their music without a backing orchestra is a whole different thing and incredible also!

[@tinastanley4444]

My man. Portishead is the music that will do a dimension swap on you. Heads-up brother keep listening to them.

[@amomentwithme886]

Portishead is simply phenomenal ♥️

[@jpolo7723]

She's amazing

[@Emburbujada]

Beth has a voice that tells you everything. I always say that Portishead is a great band to listen to during autumn XD I'd recommend reacting to something by Lamb, maybe Gabriel or God Bless.

[@ct5625]

Yes! Love Lamb. One of the most underrated trip-hop acts in the UK.

[@howardmckenna]

PHENOMENAL song. EVERYTHING Portishead is an eargasm.

[@paranoidandroid4956]

Their Roseland, NYC Live album has to be one of the best live albums out there. It’s masterful.

[@cranboogie]

Thanks for Portishead 🙏🙏🙏

[@Jerralyng49]

Glory Box is of their great ones. Portishead is timeless.

[@thai2go]

Love your reaction. This album is a masterpiece.

[@Ocelot2000]

I absolutely love this song and the album. Glory Box is another favorite from it! It's such a vibe, I can get lost to it. Not classical. Trip Hop, and to have a full complement of strings on the stage with the band..... So Good! And yeah like you said, it has soul and R&B and orchestral elements on top. Very old school in a way. And I mean OLD school.....

[@telliesmith9825]

Dude that's one of my favorite bands right there!

[@loisporte1255]

Love Portishead so beautiful, If you like that Massive Attack Tier Drop is as beautiful.

[@glenjohnson9128]

Love, love and more love....welcome to trip-hop, bro.

[@benpotaka5893]

Roseland is classic, Portishead is genius, with such a beautiful sound, musically and vocally❤

[@gemma3954]

I can’t believe I forgot about portishead! I absolutely loved them back in the day! I used to have the “Dummy “ on cassette!! How old am I? I’m so pleased I’ve been reminded again 🤗 I’ve just downloaded “Dummy” off the back of this reaction! I loved the whole of that album xxx thanks for reminding me xxx 😘

[@kittenklub1964]

THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO MY FAV PORTISHEAD SONG!!! 👏 If you didn't own this album in the 90's, then you were deemed oblivious to the best Trip Hop in existence! 20yrs after 'Dummy' was released, I finally got to see them in concert for the first time - IT WAS AWESOME AF! Beth's voice and that bass - whoa - the ground was literally shaking to the beat. Check out 'Glory Box' one of their most famous tracks - you WILL be blown away!

[@BeardyBaldyBob]

Dummy is a great smoking album. Chilling outside on a warm evening listening to it as you watch the sun slipping behind the trees with a mellow buzz going on. Good times.

[@lauriepruitt1149]

Trip Hop is a wonderful genre.

[@sarahosty8066]

Highly recommend more Portishead; Glory Box, Sour Times, All Mine, Over...to name a few

[@erichernandez3846]

The Weeknd Trilogy was heavily influenced by Portishead. Also one of the most moving concerts I've ever been to. Shell shocked

[@lindseystein9676]

Glory box and sour times are my faves. She has such a unique voice.

[@duhusker4383]

It's pronounced Portis-Head which is the name of a coastal town near Bristol, in South West England.

[@Adam73777]

it can be seen that you love the music you respect the artist his work, you understand the emotions what she transmitted to you your good ones. she is a leader she created the trip hop with massive attack and/or tricky in the 90s, thank you I subscribe 🙏🏼

[@AstroXeno]

Dude, I told you Portishead was trip hop... I confess, I recommend stuff that nobody else is going to, but I do know where they hide the good stuff at: Hawkwind - "Take Me To Your Leader", "Black Elk Speaks" Ozric tentacles - "Kick Muck", "Space between Your Ears" Morphine - "Buena", "Souvenir", "Like A Mirror" MC 900 ft Jesus - "The City Sleeps", Adventures In Failure"

[@hah424]

Seconding Morphine!

[@cranboogie]

Ozric tentacles - love them!!!

[@recycleyourcar]

Thirding Morphine!

[@mfree80286]

Portishead is definitely worth revisiting, such a unique groove they work with...

[@suzannecat21]

Loving your reactions. I think Youssou N’Dour ft. Neneh Cherry would make a good reaction. Also Papatoui by Stromae

[@rastomasstanford7708]

Trip hop was the shit in the day. I FN love this band.

[@glenjohnson9128]

This will sound crazy to most, but go back to the 80's and the artistryof "the chauffeur" by Duran Duran...very artistically inspired....not as raw, but good. She's unparalleled

[@GlowGlowKaren]

Yaaaaa wooooooow, its a unic combination. Its my favorit band for that. Lisent the all album its amazing.

[@sundaygloom8715]

Portishead is awesome, anything from that show is nice. Check out some massive attack next, tear drop or angel are probably their more popular tracks but they have a lot of good songs.

[@raymondwallace9338]

You should check a band called goldfrapp "strict machine" my fav but they have a ton of good songs

[@willrichardson519]

Who knows where the time goes? Fairport Convention. The voice of the late great Sandy Denny with Richard Thompson on guitar.

[@Mx.RumpusParable]

Dorian Electra - Gentleman/M'Lady or Prince 1991 MTV Music Awards performance

[@simplyscottish7656]

hey man, any chance you could react to glory box from the same gig?

[@sagievy]

Love this song! ❤️Thanks for your reaction!

[@kevintyrrell9559]

Trip Hop is absolutely epic. Portishead, Sneaker Pimps, Tricky, Morcheeba, Massive Attack even some Bjork.

[@jonny_mazerati9410]

Yes!!!!! One of the most underated bands ever !!

[@vonbass1300]

Always loved them. Trip hop

[@robhaunui3343]

Awesome reaction to an awesome trip hop classic

[@tdamtoft]

Cannot effing believe I'm seeing a Portishead reaction. They're up there with Pink Floyd, just stupendous but thanks to their lazy outpur even more eclectic. Just pure blissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. Not a single s too much!

[@richardwani2803]

You should react to portishead sour times

[@catmaxwell6691]

Portishead, Tricky, Massive Attack.. my jam👻🖤

[@anglerfish61]

Dummy, the album. One of the best albums of all time. no joke. Also the genre is Trip-hop

[@matthewrandom4523]

If you want to put this in a box, name it Trip Hop. Very popular in the 1990ies. I love this band!

[@briann7495]

a group that gets long over looked ...but has a huge success and a huge catalog of music... Marilyn McCoo and the the 5th Dimension - A Must Listen

[@realest84ify]

Well you got the whole hip hop & r&b being mix in it since Portishead is a trip-hop group which is basically a slower tempo of hip hop 😊

[@AngelofSunday]

Epic performance!!!!!!

[@jeanleveau7904]

Welcome to trip hop world. You could dig it with Massive Attack. You should also definitely try Archive and the songs Londinium, nothing else, or last five. Underrated masterpiece

[@bongo874able]

you pronounced it right - we drive past it to get our Xanax, nice town - I bought a washing machine from there, good channel mate - sorry to waffle on but I'm hammered !

[@CortezHouse]

Entire Portishead - (Roseland NYC) is great!

[@ryanpfeffer3842]

Respect Portishead. They are top 10.

[@joehynes5452]

Glory Box is a gem of a song, check it out. This album is just soooo goood!!

[@ridiculousedtollett6120]

Portishead is definitely something else. If you liked this one, my recommendation are their songs "Humming" and "Machine Gun".

[@t3chkz0wep0p.2]

Sneaker Pimps-6 Underground.

[@Ihad9eyes]

Portishead " Only You" will take you somewhere else. Trip hop noir

[@melanyherron]

How can it feel? I feel like a different person after listening to this artist

[@boblane159]

s called Trip Hop. Portishead is one of the best.

[@DaddyDoom]

Trip Hop as its apex. This song is just too brutal.

[@johant23]

its "trip hop" the genre. came out of the Bristol area [Portishead is a town near Bristol UK] early/mid 1990's. check out Massive Attack and Tricky for similar

[@namecantbeblankbitches]

Trip. Hop. Never. Gets. Old. There are no subpar songs on the album. Not. One. Prince loved this album. And that's high praise kids.

[@stevious7278]

Trip Hop, YAY! Britain's answer to hip hop. Try some Massive Attack; anything fro their album "Mezzanine"...anything. "Teardrop" or "Inertia Creeps" are two excellent starting points.

[@amedeoavogadro2788]

Can't go wrong with Portishead.

[@jerrystonekingjr.6791]

Please, please please... listen to "Black Betty" by Ram Jam. You will love it.

[@MConchis]

Listen to a song called "All my friends are funeral singers". The group is Califone

[@dressedinblack73]

I met them in about 2003 they were playing as a project trip hop.... very deep, very sensitive, sometimes dark..

[@AlexFroot]

they are legit . once i randomly listened to them i WOW !!

[@sailor7381]

best music ever....nothing more to say

[@passtheparcel360]

Welcome to the music of my generation

[@palecorpse]

Massive Attack. I'm not a huge fan of any group, so you might want to ask a true fan about what is best. I like the more obvious hits like "Karmacoma", "Angel", "Inertia Creeps", "Day Dreaming"...and several others.

[@gemma3954]

I think Tricky did “karmacoma” and Morcheba did “Angel/s”. Please someone correct me if I’m wrong. They are both good and so is Massive attack can’t remember which ones though.

[@palecorpse]

@@gemma3954 It's possible that they did. I think it gets tricky when talking about music that is layers and samples of other work. What I looked up shows that tricky wrote the lyrics for karmacoma and later morphed it into overcome. The version I know is under Massive attack. Only read Massive attack for angel, unless you count the singer as separate from the work. How does that work with sampling?

[@gemma3954]

@Jayla Eaves. You’re totally right & I am very wrong 😊 I’ve just looked and massive attack did do angel. The song I was thinking of was “World looking in” by morcheba. I’m gonna use the excuses that it starts with the word ‘angels’ and my age!! 😇🙃☺️ I love “overcome” & “kamacoma” if one morphed into the other, that’s probably why. One song that I forgot but I love is “Teardrop” by Massive attack. X

[@michaelhoward5785]

Trip hop at it’s finest

[@rastomasstanford7708]

I remember watching that remake fantastic four movie and Mike B was listening to it and it was the best moment in the movie to me.

[@gyrick1]

Trip Hop is amazing, please check-out Massive Attack (songs, "Protection", "Angel", "Teardrop", "Voodoo in my Blood" and "I Against I"

[@trendydelquendy]

Thought Glory Box would be 1st? No matter; that bass drum is distorting my speakers :) Trip-hop - 90s Brighton UK sound

[@mpearos9636]

You should react to Tenacious D - Tribute, you will love it

[@gemma3954]

And sorry if I sound crude Tenacious D - “Fu*k her gently”. Tenacious D is like a comedy band but they are quite good

[@vnnxyz1473]

Portishead are Cool !

[@mrsiborg]

Trip Hop FTW

[@nicholasvecchiola4964]

Ricki Lee Jones, “Living it Up”. You’re gonna love it. And then, just for an extreme change of pace, Deep Purple, “Pictures of Home”. I got a million of them. All different styles and genres. I’ll stay in touch.

[@rickwhear4016]

Beth Gibbons.....that voice

[@Abbadonhades]

I didn't realize it before now, but I think Trip-Hop is my favourite genre. I also love Portishead's "Glory box". Aside from that there's Massive Attack, Goldfrapp, and several other bands I can't remember at the moment.

[@xx-ug9hn]

Tricky

[@MrEdlgar]

Some classic Issac Hayes influence no doubt.

[@carloscardenas2314]

Primer y único comentario en español! Portishead es genial! La vocalista lo hace con tanto sentimiento que llega hasta el alma. Ésta es una de mis canciones favoritas de ellos, aunque en general me gustan mucho! Ellos junto a Massive Attack son los mejores en el trip hop pero hay muchas más bandas buenísimas en esto: Hooverphonic, Morcheeba, etc. (Disculpa si no lo escribí bien) Saludos! ✌🏼

[@markfraser4697]

Massive attack unfinished symphony

[@dizastro5437]

This is fire, PortisHead has a thing. Try for some Bitter:Sweet if you can get away with it. They as evil with their propriety as Eagles, but the world needs to know
