Now Mercurial finally knows who was in Paris

[@mercurialfunk]

Distinguished fellas

[@churricardo1457]

The same people that went to the moon on that 2015 Death Grips album 🔥🔥🔥

[@Kordellll]

This man isn’t seeing a penny from KZbin and I appreciate it😭🙏🏽

[@franlymatias6942]

808s and Heartbreak and Graduation has to happen. We don’t agree with Kanye the person at all times, but Kanye the artist has to be appreciated.

[@WestCoastCultured]

Most ppl don’t agree with everything with each other. 😂🤡

[@bootcutbandit]

Otis is one of the coolest samples ever . Apparently Ye made the beat in like 15 minutes

[@pjetrs]

It always amazes me how easy it seems. Now when I listen the original song, I can't help but think: why did no one else think of chopping this up this way?! Its like there was one perfect way to do it and Kanye knew it and executed to perfection

[@Jimmy-es8bc]

Probably the greatest sample flip of all time. Incredible. The way the staccato beat swells and teases and then finally explodes.

[@kidcudi908]

Ye greatest artist of this generation, top 3 all time

[@TR13400]

This album blew my mind at 12 years old 🤣 my young mind could not handle the mind bendingly beautiful sounds

[@jaydoszingerbox9434]

0:37 No Church in the wild 5:09 Lift off 9:35 Ni**as in Paris 13:15 Otis 16:13 Gotta have it 18:33 New day 23:07 Thats My Bitch 26:28 Welcome To The Jungle 29:23 Who Gon Stop Me 33:39 Murder To Excellence 38:40 Made In America 44:33 Why I Love You

[@YerpDerp17]

This sound of music can only be made by someone who is insanely rich. lol Its so lush and extravagant. They were both at the peak of their popularity at this time, and the confidence exudes all over the album. Fantastic reaction, per usual. I hope you and anyone who reads this has a wonderful and positive week!

[@minjabentb]

Jay was way bigger 98-03 but I hear ya

[@jdsolis99]

Positive vibes only like magic Johnson 🪄

[@Jay-uw4bu]

Rick Rubin had heavy input in this album and actually changed the sound a bit. So yeah two SUPER Rich men rapping on an album with AN EVEN RICHER man having creative input too

[@Jimmy-es8bc]

Back then perhaps, but anyone has the potential to make this kind of sound these days. You need insane talent, obviously, but it can be done much cheaper these days...if you're a musical genius.

[@Bran_Flakesx7]

or a good studio with all the expensive mics and synths and mixers :p

[@williamhornabrook8081]

Fellas in Paris is one of the catchiest and energetic rap songs of the 2010s. We used to quote parts of it all the time.

[@angryg4mers59]

I've been addicted to your reactions man you're truly the best and the most raw on KZbin

[@CaliKiid714]

That Justin Vernon vocal line on That's My Bitch is so underrated. It makes the song so much better lol. Also just realized you didn't listen to the deluxe version, you would've loved H*A*M :)

[@xavvi]

He did such an amazing imitation of Charlie Wilson that I literally didn't realize it was him for years.

[@chels7mlg]

@@xavvi you guys just made me have this realisation. i don't know if i will recover from this

[@mikejohnno]

@@xavvi it's actually both - Charlie tweeted that it was his voice with Justin's layered on

[@gabagooloverhere6647]

To answer your question if it's okay to listen to Ye still, he's the 24th most popular artist on Spotify. I don't think most people have stopped listening to him. You shouldn't feel bad about listening to him, do what you want.

[@tadknuf7979]

Even during the whole anti semitism shit (which was obviously horrible) songs like bound 2 and heartless were going viral all over apps like tiktok, so the music has always been undeniable no matter what.

[@Alan-tx4fn]

Jew here. If you care about Jews, you don’t listen to Kanye.

[@Alan-tx4fn]

@@tadknuf7979Yup, there’s a lot of antisemites among us.

[@gabagooloverhere6647]

@@Alan-tx4fn That's not how it works I'm afraid. Salvador Dali's paintings are still appreciated and he was an anti-semite, his works contained antisemitic themes. Kanye is mentally ill, he was going through an episode. He has been diagnosed with bipolar and it was a clear episode. From the frantic talking to outrageous conspiracy theories, it's what happens when you don't take the meds. You could end up killing someone when your bipolar, doesn't excuse them but it is much needed context when talking about it.

[@andresduques2013]

I need you to react to Graduation by Kanye, the production on that album is made for stadiums, full of synths and electronic music, I just know you'd go crazy listening to it. Great reaction as always, I hope you always stay this active 🙌🏼

[@axelmartinez3540]

same with 808s and heartbreak, some of kanye’s most interesting and unique production of his career

[@kush1747]

you're like the only internet reviewer I care to watch. keep doing your thing ! also I think you would really really love reacting to "leak 04-13" by jai paul. it's one of the most influential and craziest pop albums of this generation, like a cross between prince and dilla.

[@antongustafsson2530]

I second this!

[@everythingwillbeokkkk]

Third this!

[@franlymatias6942]

Yes

[@deek60819]

WTT 2011 tour was my first real concert and one of the best concert experiences I've ever had, even in the nosebleeds. That show was insane, they played paris x7

[@Fenriren]

Im glad you decided to continue to react to Kanye records. I feel like youd really love Graduation

[@NelaIWNL]

great record. otis is one of my favorites for sure. it's very akin to bound 2 in the aspect that it's nothing more than a sample with very minimal original production, and it sounds absolutely incredible. "photoshoot fresh, looking like wealth / i'm about to call the paparazzi on myself" is an alltime classic jay-z bar, but both of them do amazing on that song. i really like lift off (the super deep bass notes are great) and why i love you (everything about the dramatic atmosphere of this track is crazy good)

[@zMawzz]

This reaction and production is class 😂

[@autofillautofill4946]

Best channel on KZbin. Your passion and energy is unmatched

[@notan80yearold90]

Man you embody the music really breaths new life into an album keep it up

[@hmmmhmmm5200]

Your editing skills is amazing, big props to you. Love these vids

[@fibre2735]

no one does it better then you, no one does it better then kanye

[@robertflom4153]

Would definitely recommend some of Jay Z's earlier work, like Reasonable Doubt, Blueprint, or The Black Album. Insane production, top-tier rapping.

[@gregwoodin5630]

This has given me a new appreciation for this album. This album really aged well.

[@thomasnelson5758]

Not going to lie, I didn't think we'd ever get another Kanye reaction lol. great record

[@fedoratheexplorar2143]

Love this album Mercurial, always love any content from you

[@adamseamusic]

Was hoping for a pelican when Jayz said “Fly pelican fly” on why I love you 😂

[@mercurialno6]

Oh. Missed opportunity! I was probably talking over it! :-)

[@Santinas]

Just commented this too lol it would’ve been amazing 🥲

[@1996connor]

Damn It's not the deluxe version H.A.M is a ridiculously good song

[@mercurialno6]

Yeah, for reactions I try and stay away from deluxe versions. Can you imagine how long the videos would be! Also, I've been burnt with 'deluxe' versions of albums in the past. I think they used the word deluxe in the same way as I use the word filler. :-)

[@dyyylllaannn]

HAM isn't that good. i agree with merc tbh

[@antongustafsson2530]

Illest Mf:er Alive is the best song on the album though

[@Benjlmao1996]

@@mercurialno6 Deluxe versions 90% of the time are just useless extras from albums but i think the deluxe is the definitive version, all of those songs are great

[@bootcutbandit]

I know it's been requested many times, but if you'd care to do another Kanye video, I'd really love for you to check out 808s & Heartbreak. My favorite album of his along with Yeezus. A very emotional yet a delightful listen. Regardless, will watch anything you decide to create. Cheers Also, your vocals during Made In America were fantastic :)

[@zeedexo]

Amazing album, amazing reaction, amazing channel, cheers to that!

[@hmvaa]

We're never getting 808s & Heartbreak, the album he'd enjoy the most fr

[@mikem4481]

We will never stop listening to Ye

[@Blydus]

Mr Hudson is a super talented British guy! You might recognise his song 'supernova' which featured Kanye and was big over here back in the day. He had a big song with N Dubz aswell

[@LeTickleMeBronBron]

Killing it with the uploads recently man! Idk how you do it but i love it

[@brianattyberry]

Pelicans In Paris

[@NoahsArc864]

Jay Z actually headlined Glastonbury in 2008!

[@Yagoforn]

called ... 'in paris'

[@2canz814]

Fun Fact! Kid Cudi is secretly featured on Gotta Have It, if you listen closely to the baseline and humming you’ll hear him when the beat cuts out. All luv Mr. 6 🖤🖤🖤

[@lydiavalentino]

the sample on "No Church in the Wild" is Phil Manzanera's "K Scope"

[@newdawnfades5725]

Hi Mercurial!! Love your reactions saw the Daytona one the other day and think you are spot on about the Rock n Roll influence reminds me of King Crimson (which obviously Kanye has used in Power)

[@dillon8650]

Enjoyed that guitar bit at the end

[@4Rbabi]

mercurials officially locked in again

[@vexwebster5197]

At 11:31 Mercurial attempts to make a severe part about Kanye and his views, only to be hit with the most 'Kanye' line on the album. It just had to happen, didn't it? Great video - you clearly have lots of fun and it shows!

[@NoahsArc864]

Your energy radiates🙏🏼

[@tommy24hunnid]

I’ve never heard someone called a toilet the throne and I’m from the UK🤣

[@mercurialno6]

It's common slang. So much so that I kinda put off doing this album cause I was genuinely worried I'd have to think about Jay-z and Kanye with their pants around their ankles!

[@ibleminen]

Would love to see a reaction to Kanye West’s graduation.

[@AirMambaProductions]

The whiskey bit was hilarious

[@lukeferraro01]

Ye is still one of the most streamed artists so it’s not like it’s unacceptable to listen to him. Gotta separate artist from art

[@mercurialno6]

It does depend on what the artist has done.

[@iTzShady95]

Keep doing what you’re doing, your energy is great and re-visiting aaall those albums is so fun

[@newdawnfades5725]

You speaking Welsh on top of Lift off is so iconic haha

[@hardwoodthought1213]

The Welsh accent is hilarious 😂

[@philmjb]

you should React to Mr Hudsons original band Mr Hudson and the Library "Tale of Two Cities" from the early 2000's. Its a very underappreciated album that is influenced by lots of different kinds of music and there are some very catchy songs on it

[@tehsingh1]

30:30 That Feeder song was in the soundtrack of an old Gran Turismo game. Can't tell you how many times I've heard that song haha
