Skepta - Plugged In W/Fumez The Engineer | Pressplay | KRXOVR REACTION

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Before anyone gives me attitude, this wasn't intended to be the next upload. My editing software kept crashing and this was an easy edit, so it was done first. I didn't want to risk the export crashing while I edit other videos.

[@jackjohnson2309]

I feel you on the reused bars. When I first found the UK scene it was weird to me because growing up hip hop it was always “corny” to reuse bars. After adjusting to the grime sound and culture I LOVE hearing those throwback bars now. Like you said, you hear the familiar spun in a new way and you get extra hype rapping along to it in a new way. From a reaction standpoint, it makes it fun watching you guys catch on and get hype too.

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Exaaaaactly!!!!! It was a little jarring at first for me as well. But as soon as I got used to it...boyyyyy! LOL. I am right there with you on this one.

[@jackjohnson2309]

@@KRXOVRmedia same with wheels ups 🤣. I saw Charlie pull up Wretch and I was like “how DARE you?!”, then I learned and now I’m like “you better run this ALL the way back!” 🤣🤣🤣

[@lb61936]

Yeh I get so hyped when I hear a re used bar - just sounds iconic .

[@MrJoeshipley]

Regard what he said about old bars - grime was literally a rave scene. Hearing your favourite MCs set the place off with some iconic bars is part of the hype. I know shadiq (sp?) Knows this but just adding context for viewers.

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Facts and you spelled it correctly btw

[@BigManOscar1]

It’s mad how someone who’s not in the UK has so much knowledge of the UK music scene and breaks down the tunes so well. There’s certain things you only pick up on which other UK reactors don’t and that’s mad. Keep the great reactions up 🔥🔥

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you!

[@BigManOscar1]

@@KRXOVRmedia no worries. Killing the reaction game! hoping you react to the Squeeks plugged in later. One of my fav rappers from the UK 🇬🇧

[@jeromeb9953]

The transition from the kwengface clip to the skepta one was seamless, had to point it out. Another great vid as always

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you! I had to make sure it was smooth to help make the point

7:50 “dem boy don’t know about Tenitas with the batteries held in with sellotape”. Tenita is a scale used to weigh food. He was talking about dealing rather than bullets. But pretty spot on with the other explanations 👍🏼

[@leonwilliams3221]

The “Tanitas” bar about the cello tape is in reference the weighing scales. OG dealers like my uncles age be using them till literally you need cello tape to hold them together. Tanita is a brand that makes the scales.

[@judeswan3025]

Love from uk. U get it. Wish u could of been around in ldn back in grime set days, seeing these bars get reloaded etc

[@KRXOVRmedia]

I wish I started back then too. I miss Grime

[@ProductOfAnEmpire]

Watching a GRIME freestyle and not hearing old skool classic bars is like watching WWE wrestling and not seeing signature moves... The Rock better do the People's Elbow, Stone Cold needs to do The Stunner or I want my PAY PER VIEW money back... yah get me!

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Big facts. Like it's literally mandatory.

[@Ak-pn2qm]

The edit for the hi hat flow was slick bro I noticed that lool

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you!

[@hassraad8072]

Your the best reactor in my opinion, your too good you make me see songs differently

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Helping encourage new perspectives is all I could ever ask for. Thank you for supporting. I hope to continue to deliver for you.

[@KingKierzini]

God bless you for being the only person reacting that actually clocks the bars and explains them for viewers!

[@connorobrien510]

Watched a fair few reactions videos to this and have to say yours is the most indepth of them all. Keep up the work rate mate

[@zasuos]

best us reactor changes my mind on alot of stuff keep up the work

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you. Much appreciated. What did you end up changing your mind about?

[@PaulTheFruitcake]

Best reaction by far nice work

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you!

[@arcanuke3294]

In this case by batteries he literally means batteries. He's saying he's got scales so old he has to tape them together.

[@carlos_tn]

They're called countersnares

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you so much!

[@KingKierzini]

That bar about batteries being held in with cello tape refers to weighing scales used by drug dealers, not shotgun ammunition :)

[@Edgarnutor]

he is the best he clocked the kwengface beat

[@rory787]

5:10 this guy knows. Hit the nail on the head there.

[@KebabTM]

When a snare gets used like hihats, it’s referred to as a countersnare.

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Ahhhh. Thank you so much for this

[@Edgarnutor]

my favorite reactor

[@Ashandelier]

Singalongability🤣🤣but fr there should be a word to describe what you mean if there isn't one already. Good reaction and good luck with getting through last week's drop.

[@Ashandelier]

Drops*

[@KRXOVRmedia]

LOLOL I just be making up words. Thank you for watching. I definitely have a lengthy list of songs, but I already have an idea of what I can start to prioritize, so we'll see how it goes with work and school as always.

[@markparker2893]

Another great reaction my brudda 🙌🏿🙏🏿

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Thank you!

[@Rocketthegloden1]

SAMEEEE Exact beat as kwengfaces 😂🔥 this beat is a BOPPPPPPPPPPP ! Roccn my shoulders like Levi 😂

[@pleasantdonovan]

The batteries line is actually about a scale that's falling apart with tape on the back.

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Ahh okay copy. Thank you

[@bumbahrass2864]

"start chopping up a next ounce with h" chopping up means cutting drugs with other drugs and "h" is slang for heroin.

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Oooohhh okay copy copy. Thank you

[@xXItZzLeWXx]

I know you’re a drill guy but would love to see more grime on the channel

[@KRXOVRmedia]

It's really just a matter of circumstance that most of the channel is Drill tbh. It's not on purpose like Walkz. I go with the flow of the scene. I haven't been seeing the Grime MC's I'm familiar with releasing like that, so it's harder for me to keep up with the Grime scene. If enough people request something, I'll notice it. But I also have to prioritize at some point because I can't do everything.

[@xXItZzLeWXx]

@@KRXOVRmedia I understand mate. Honestly, there hasn’t been too much new and exciting grime to cover. I suppose I’d be interested to see you cover old grime content which is ‘new to you’, but I understand that it’s unrealistic for you to spend time making those videos when there is so much new drill content on your to-do list already.

[@KRXOVRmedia]

Maybe one day I can figure something out. I lowkey been wanting to do videos playing music for my friends too. Maybe one day.

[@140nonickname]

@@KRXOVRmedia 17 Again by cadell is a sick song that released somewhat recently, its more inbetween grime and garage tho. also maybe you watching some sets could be a very cool reaction. the grime session with maxsta, manga saint hilaire and scrufizzer is one of the funnest and sickest sets to watch. atleast of the ones with good sound and video quality

[@ProductOfAnEmpire]

Yo Shadiq, you already know what I'm gonna say... modern UK Drill has evolved into GRIME, I used to bump Durk and Keef and King Louie on a daily... this is no longer that genre. Skeppy literally copied and pasted his old 'Grime' lyrics onto this riddim with ease, every single lyric he's used before on GRIME sets... I think he did this purposely to show that what we today call 'UK Drill' instrumentals are more or less GRIME riddims, 140 bpm and everything, i.e. "M1llionz - B1llionz is Ruff Sqwad ft Wiley - Together'. It depends on how the MC approaches the track. Remember I always say GRIME is beyond the beat... it's the culture. As many of your viewers are fairly young they haven't really experienced the various soundscapes of GRIME... they can't educate you. GRIME to them is Skepta - Shutdown... if it doesn't sound like that or similiar it isn't GRIME to their ears. They've never heard Grime classics like 'Bashy - Death Is Just A Page Away'... they wouldn't even recognise it as a GRIME song if they heard it today because it's not 'Hype'. This is why GRIME MCs like Scorcher and Keeya Keys spin 'Drill' beats with maximum ease, because GRIME MCs rhyme on all kinds of riddims... that is what makes them GRIME, just listen to an Oblig set. Peace.

[@stevensmith2262]

Skeppy is all about exposure at this point, just did Fallon. It's just exposure, reused bars for days for a platform that has millions of views. I get it though, I respect Skepta, all the BBK boys Shorty, Jam, JME, Frisco. Hope they all get a piece of whatever pie.
