[@Noirlore]

Brockhampton vidoes were under 15 Min

[@JustGotHeated]

Alex Malagoli so the Eminem album review is about concept? 😂 gotcha

[@JoeyPadilla]

Ohhhhh shit he’s in his car

[@gleefmon]

This dude deserves so much more support. He is by far the funniest reviewer and most entertaining.

[@notprosperBEATS]

ikr

[@Simon_Sez]

Agreed. The quarantine has me binging his videos and idk why he wasn’t suggested to me sooner

[@adamclifford5155]

I like the kill Edward alter ego, Edward is his dads name, ties in with window pain "all I wanna do is is kill the Man that made my mum Cry"

[@vincefree]

Adam Joseph Noel Laurence Clifford step dad* , Kill is because he had a great hatred towards him because he’s the reason his mum was abused and had alcohol addiction. - according to the Angie Martinez interview

[@LugiaBeats]

Tabby is the DJ Khaled of listening to albums

[@Tabby]

alright this is just mean

[@astrokid2475]

More like dj akademics of listening to albums

[@Metafari]

exactly what i thought xD

[@inactive9544]

alright this is so accurate tho

[@LugiaBeats]

now THATS mean

[@Onestrandedperson]

When Tabby made them car noises I was dying EDIT: THERE’S TWO CAR NOISE MOMENTS. I’M DECEASED!

[@Cjones04199110]

Onestrandedperson me toooo

[@MightyAmygdala]

I just wrecked my lungs with a bong and now Tabby uploads. What a good fucking day dude lol

[@SoHelpMeREACT]

Thanks tabby I needed this after finding out about avicii. R.I.P. avicii

[@miscellaneousmedia3753]

it's crazy man, that dude should've had at least another 50 years to go, but at the very least he lives on in his music

[@jddesanta179]

REACTORS R' US How did he die?

[@FocusedThronee]

Johnathan DeSantiago it like just happened a few hours ago there's no way we could know

[@SoHelpMeREACT]

Johnathan DeSantiago I honestly don’t know, I can only hope he went peacefully and painless when he shouldn’t have went at all

[@thomaschristensen9469]

something to with a pancreas-related health problem I believe

[@goodmusic4389]

This album is kinda like a book For Your Eyez Only is kinda like a movie 2014 is his best body of music, it'll get the most plays by me. however there is a mood in which id rather listen to one then the other, none are bad

[@jeremydiesel7805]

Good Music I totally agree

[@itslyptix2287]

Unpopular opinion but I think his debut album is some of his best work

[@youngroyalty7991]

I see you're putting contrasting colours to work in your outfit. nice.

[@Measy1893]

pog

[@yolkthosenuts]

PogU

[@THEOAKLANDBABY510]

what does this mean?

[@RenegadeWave]

I swear Tabby is the most underrated reactor ever lmao

[@MrRT0418]

Renegade Wave ikr

[@truitt23381]

The intro reminded me of on logic’s album when he yelled “I SMOKE WEED”

[@puupipo]

Truitt Bullard I SMOKE WEED EVERYDAYAYAYAYYY wait, no.

[@andilogical2609]

If I had a dollar for every time tabby sweared I’d have 203 dollars 🙂

[@samishi2811]

Andrew Ford are you four?

[@dysperdotted]

no, he’s paid.

[@v3rsaaaa]

Those claps at 3:35 were crazy synced

[@joe_123_n]

osheeanik i’ve presses this time stamp so may times it’s so satisfying

[@Tabby]

ya boy got riddim

[@v3rsaaaa]

Tabby SAID I AINT GOT RIDDIM

[@dysperdotted]

this is the most satisfying thing i’ve seen.

[@JoseThe415kid]

First time viewer! I'm staying.

[@Venenoso]

Been waiting for this

[@martaavlas7970]

Venenoso Been waiting for you

[@nkosikamal5015]

I just saw you yesterday

[@pineappleunderthesea7871]

We have a similar video / music review interest I see you every where

[@talkamara507]

LISTEN TO IT MORE IT GETS BETTER AFTER EACH LISTEN

[@chungomctwisty]

KOD aka: Kream On me Dabby, you sexy midwesterner

[@WeezyGR]

Im dead haahahahahaaha

[@DiesleADogg]

Again, blessed to have a reaction from you. But I know you're getting to the Saba.

[@darrylemooreii4424]

Diesle A-Dogg I hope.

[@josephkuforiji9407]

I also hope

[@jalves6494]

“Friends” is the best song, also the best verse iv heard in a very long time

[@dash2240]

The fact That I can edit a comment and it stays hearted by the youtuber is a big design flaw

[@boat-dog8622]

Dash 22 now edit it so it says something mean!

[@MrCelticsfan3459]

Lmao

[@rappers6331]

That thumbnail is on point though

[@kaylancrosby776]

Everytime I’m depressed and feel myself falling out of love with music (god forbid) I binge Tabby reactions and it pulls me back and I appreciate music so much more

[@kingpeter6176]

THE BEST REVIEW I HAVE SEEN ON THIS ALBUM

[@kinggeedra2796]

I need a 420 remix of tabby singing the weed anthem ASAP

[@Ryan-bv4bp]

Classic album, no doubt.

[@legomanharrison]

Ryan sponagle lol not even close

[@jordanb3120]

Naw. Trap trends but Off season and the Fall off will be tho.

[@jenko3247]

Couldn’t have said it any better ! Great interpretation of the album . So many meanings to it . I agree , this is why I love music too . No one does it like Cole

[@devantexe]

Love you tabby cant wait for your project this summer👍

[@adrien1056]

Sagnik Mukherjee peachfuzz

[@devantexe]

Sagnik Mukherjee yeah i believe it is going to be called peach fuzz, if you want to there is a promo on his channel

[@jeadeamo]

This is supposed to be your best video ever? HYPE

[@mememan3799]

JerDude wha???? JER WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!? I didnt know you watch Tabby?

[@brianstrike2781]

Don’t understand how more people aren’t subbed to you man, I’ve been here for close to a year now I think and love your videos because we seem to have a lot of the same opinions on albums and music in general. Keep doing what you’re doing you’re videos are great!!!

[@thomascorbett4834]

THE FALL OFF IS THIS ALBUM IN REVERSE. 1985 is the year he was born and it tells a story going back through time. ending with the intro which talks about the pain he felt throughout the album

[@assaad1159]

Jay Xenter 😂😂😂😂😂😂 true

[@dysperdotted]

so this is literally just damn, 2014, and tpab all in one.

[@jrodjc729]

Thomas Corbett Right, even though it clearly says intro & outro in the song titles but just nevermind that right? Lmao ok

[@DonaldSnowsnake]

Love your commentary on this album tabs, I’m really digging this Cole tape. Great reaction bro

[@errinblue]

Love the reaction! And let me just say that you are one of the few people that didn't let the good things about this album fly over your head. The same way you explained it at the end is the same way I was thinking. Great way of explaining this album because it flew over so many people heads!! I'm surely subscribing lol 😊

[@cmentz111]

One of the only people to appreciate this albums greatness. You are the goat

[@C.Tomás]

I fucking love you Tabby, the most insightful music KZbinr. You really help me enjoy music way more. Thanks.

[@huskee3194]

Hey tabby, probably too late for you to see this comment but you are an inspiration to me and watching your videos makes me feel happy even when I’m not. I feel like I’ve known you for years even though we are complete strangers. You’re the best man. Never change.

[@Tabby]

wow thank you!! that means a lot man, I’m happy that my content resonates with you so well also I’ve been in your house this whole time

[@Trichomanic]

Ya Boy I love the customgrow pic lol

[@huskee3194]

It’s one thing to read comments tabby responded to, it’s another thing to actually get a response...... Jesus I need to stop kissing ass

[@tk5795]

You’re the only reaction channel I don’t skip around the video with

[@alexfdezpal]

I love how reactions can make me love even more albums with those thoughts and everything. Im from Spain and even though I know English enough to understand most of the lyrics I cant think about them that much. So thanks !

[@hannathompson3813]

Tabby you would literally be the most epic teacher of a class that focuses specifically on rap. You sort through all of the concepts and beats and i love it so fucking much.

[@MrOldman09]

This is my second time watching this review. I really took this trip with you. I am a black female 66 yrs old and former activist and I enjoyed your video from beginning to end. I was so surprised you got it exactly. I salute you. After watching you, I have subscribed. Loved it!!!!!

[@ri-ley3650]

Why did I laugh so much when he said "this is photograph and this is my scone"

[@Trichomanic]

I waited all day for this reaction. I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did.

[@lucalaure547]

The best review of this album yet, amazing work Tabby!

[@MYosky22]

Tabby in his car vs Tabby in his home is a debate I can get behind.

[@chungomctwisty]

You're the only person I like enough to accept your cringyness💛

[@josephkuforiji9407]

Dakota Hall facts

[@notprosperBEATS]

yep

[@Nthinnifel]

This is the 4th reaction / review I've watched and it is the best one just for the simple fact that you caught the message cole was trying to put out. Not that it's complicated but you'll be surprised at how many people don't pay attention. Great job keep it up Tabby

[@curiousgeorge1313]

Your setting the bar high for video release times with this one! Love ya tabby

[@keithm7004]

I miss your reactions, but I totally get where you are coming from with doing new things. your reactions always cheer me up. you do you. I'll always be a fan ♥

[@jacksonjontra1282]

Your take on ATM blew my mind tbh. Can't believe I didn't think of that.

[@undyingdefect]

Jackson Jontra FACTS TABBY WOKE AF

[@the0ddpoint943]

I personally enjoy 2014 more cause of the bangers it’s got, but in all sincerity this is one of the most important albums of all time because of the shit he speaks about.

[@daarylwilson8705]

YOUR FROM FLORIDA LOL SO AM I! PLUS IT LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE ASTHMA SINCE THE ENHALOR , WE'RE PRACTICALLY TWINS! GATOR BAIT.. IM A NEW SUBSCRIBER! 😁😁😎😎 PLUS I LOVE J COLE AND KENDRICK!

[@unknowninfinite8081]

Your reactions and concepts are always interesting, much support

[@mengezinxumalo9276]

By far the best review of KOD and I've seen a lot. 😉👊

[@awwwudeadagain3491]

First UF boi! Second I fuckin love how funny this guy is honestly and third I love how you actually understand this album and really talk about the meaning

[@tommacdonaldstan6998]

HOLY SHIT YOU RIGHT ABOUT COUNT IT UP WTF HOW DID I MISS THIS

[@mynamesMihir]

tabby you were digging so deep with the count it up drug thing

[@KeepPoundingMrRicks]

Mihir he actually hit it on the nail

[@aleeshasarr]

Either he’s digging too deep or you’re not digging deep enough. It’s definitely more likely than not

[@mrgrimrap]

Wasup tabby your videos always crack me tf up! Lol Would you ever consider doing reactions for up and coming rappers or less known ones? Hope this reaches you ima subscriber with the notification bell on 👍

[@lilthumbasmr]

bro your analysis on the album is great... fuck yeah. props tab 💪🏽

[@connoreasterday306]

Amazing review! I always love every video you release! Keep up the great work

[@_xpak_8143]

umm tasbster..... kevins heart is about Kevin Hart lol

[@louvi4913]

_XPak_ facts like I was waiting for this comment

[@eb2604]

_XPak_ on the surface

[@carlwhite4983]

No it's not

[@ajc2901]

its not about Kevin Hart, its about cheating/ addiction, the title is just world play

[@metta669]

i thoroughly enjoy your banter

[@1dreamville310]

The best review or reaction ive seen in awhile

[@TheKelownaGolfer]

best reviews man you always nail the concepts dead on!! love the fuck out of this album

[@kevinzelaya4544]

You should listen to Endless CDQ. I know you reacted to Endless back in 2016 but the CDQ version made me appreciate it much more. I would like to see you groove to it while you cook or some other shit.

[@Noirlore]

Best Friends Forever SL Rushes gonna have him crying

[@brianzhuang4319]

Where is the CDQ of Endless?!?!

[@shotbynolan1705]

The clarity is superb on Endless

[@snarfalot5457]

scrapbooks are dope

[@notprosperBEATS]

fax

[@ScraitStressin]

Oweeeeeeeee!!!! Ya explanation of Brackets just opened my mind. Ifwy!!💯💯

[@nemo2327]

You absolutely killed this Tabby, one of your greatest videos🙏🏽

[@bahaxeldeen]

Thank you , I always enjoy watching ur videos

[@hyzo686]

He is showing that you can rap like "rappers" today but actually doing it with lyrics that mean something and is worth a shit. and he doing it like a straight boss.

[@nathandickson5973]

I always feel like J cole is that father in the rap game he’s gone through these things and has learned from them and is telling us it as his kids

[@colinnolan2212]

This was basically my exact response (although I wasn’t really seeing it specifically talking on drugs but vices in general).. but yeaa this album is amazing

[@sonjimmy5559]

aha just subscribed, you really give justice to this album. Keep it up !

[@boat-dog8622]

DAMN dude I think u hit the count it up concept spot on

[@jalves6494]

1985 has the exact same flow as “started from the bottom” and i know its for a reason i cant figure out

[@Cash42]

J Alves I’ve tried telling people this lmao I still can’t figure it out tho 😂

[@thecoolone159]

That little segment about anxiety hit a little to close to home lololo

[@jakesantos1574]

honestly man, i love your content, you’re super entertaining, love your style (even if it’s kinda irrelevant), and you always very interesting and comedic insight towards things. looking forward to the future for you man✊✌🏽

[@SadBoyz_dz]

1985

[@NotRealMusicRyan]

Tabby’s excitement makes me wanna like this album way more than I do.

[@v3rsaaaa]

*tabby also KOD is AOTY*

[@freddyreyes1783]

We will see

[@tylerblair318]

Yeah, no.

[@v3rsaaaa]

Tyler Blair u don't get it guy

[@tylerblair318]

osheeanik kzbin.info/www/bejne/noGahWepaLJppac

[@r1t225]

I was at the end of the review and I thought it was the beginning because I must've fast foward it to 22 minutes in

[@Simon_Sez]

I love when J. Cole is on his super conscious shit... High for Hours, Brackets, etc.

[@yuhmuhfuhkuh]

I believe you can play this album in reverse and it tells a different story just like DAMN.: "Will I fall? Will I fly?" "Choose wisely" 1985 (Intro to "The Fall Off") KOD backwards is "The Fall Off" in which J. Cole starts off as his usual demon-killing self but then gradually becomes just as bad if not worse than the young popular drug-addicted rapper he criticized on 1985 eventually leading to his overdose. "The Fall Off" is the version of KOD that results in the death of J. Cole by the hands of King Overdose otherwise known as kiLL edward. Kevin's Heart is the turning point in which he can either press decline on demons' temptations or fall into those temptations. When playing KOD forwards, he presses decline and the lingering of the temptations on his mind is not strong enough for him to succumb; when playing KOD backwards, he presses decline but the lingering of the temptations on his mind is too strong and he begins to succumb. J. Cole is trying to tell us that we must choose how we deal with demons/pain. We can either meditate or medicate, fly or fall. Choose wisely.

[@austinmiller6000]

hahah dude this video was awesome keep it up! love the interpretation!

[@xxKudosxx101]

Hey Tabby you've gotta listen to Saba's Care for Me project, it is absolutely incredible. I think you'd love it!!!

[@jacknoteboom5362]

well damn his verse on brackets is the explanation he said he didn't have time for on the jeezy song american dream, "white folks been getting rich off of cocaine through some underhanded methods i dont got time to explain" it might not be directly about coke but its pretty similar

[@annahouse618]

Lol your reaction to photograph was enough to make me subscribe 😂👌

[@sicklad7515]

It’s really cool watching you theorise about an album. Bro thank you for the solid video. If you haven’t already, react to All American Trash or maybe Princess Nokia’s new EP, “a girl cried red.” Expect it to be bad.

[@dst2179]

Yoo, yo intellect perspective really got me thinking. GREAT REACTION

[@ethann9290]

It’s really fun to watch tabby over analyze

[@nateisonline6448]

Tabby in the name of all that is good please react to Saba's Care For Me.

[@NotRealMusicRyan]

Nate Morris great frigging album, Melon did it wrong.

[@Min-kp7ei]

GOAT INTRO OF ALL KZbin HISTORY. WIDDA LEEEETLEEE BIT OF WEEEEED

[@mikenqnt527]

I luv your reviews bruh Wish u the best for the future 🔥👍🏾

[@zek9974]

The goat is here🐐🐐🐐

[@matts209]

You weren't kidding when you said this is your best video. Nice catch on ATM also

[@anyasigler9252]

Tabby had the best reaction and breakdown of this whole album hands down.❤️

[@The2ndKev]

You are a god when it comes to breaking down these albums.

[@kenedyakena]

OMG! F'n best intro ever!!
