🇬🇧 BRIT Reacts To ICE CUBE - TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY!

[@anonnnymousthegreat]

90’s kid here, my mom had this song on repeat when i was a kid. Brings me back to my childhood. I love his song “friday” off the friday movie soundtrack. Friday the song and the movie is a classic and iconic.

[@rahulangamuthu4122]

Lol this is the clean version. You should listen to the other version sometime

[@a00141799]

Ole school Ice Cube. Yeah Cube was one of the originals, a pioneer who brought the gritty inner city vibe to his music. A lot of rappers came along and tried to fake the authenticity that Cube had!! It didn't work and to this day, this man is widely respected and admired for the realness and legitimacy of his music. Great tribute to a legend Kabir⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

[@kabirconsiders]

Have you seen Straight Out Of Compton? Such an awesome movie that did a great job of covering 90s era Cali hiphop

[@technojailson_6264]

NWA

[@OMahtin]

A cool reaction would be to Lowrider hopping competitions. It’s honestly one of the most craziest things a vehicle can do.

[@kabirconsiders]

I’ll put it on my list!

[@americansmark]

Cube was everywhere in the 90s. We still quote the Friday movies decades later.

[@OMahtin]

Even tho I’ve Cube said it was just a song. People believe the Good day was January 20th 1992 based on the game of the Lakers and SuperSonics

[@shaftshaft]

He hasn’t had a good day in over 13 years

[@seakc87]

It's actually November 30, 1988. By the time 1/20/92 came around, Kim was 8-9 months pregnant w/O'Shea Jr. Plus, they were three months away from getting married. So on that day, he wasn't: 1)Living with his momma; 2)Fucking a very pregnant Kim while having alcohol and weed around; or 3)Fucking around on her when they were a month a way from having their first kid and three months away from getting married.

[@KingAsa5]

Grew up on this song. Icecube one of the Legendary Rappers from the 90s and Early 2000s

[@kabirconsiders]

A true classic!

[@humanbean5878]

This song took a sample of The Isley Brothers' Footsteps in the Dark parts 1 & 2, which I really think you would enjoy as a reaction

[@msbrandymo]

Don't tell me you all don't have The Isley Bros across the pond? This sampled "Footsteps In The Dark".

[@kabirconsiders]

I haven’t heard of them 😩

[@msbrandymo]

@@kabirconsiders My mouth! They go back to the 50's! A staple of R&B.. They even preceded Earth, Wind, & Fire. They had a Verzus battle (not sure of you all get them over there). Soooo many hits! My parents raised us with them. Ever heard of Mr. Bigs that sung with Prisoner R. Kelly? He's the lead singer.

[@msbrandymo]

@@Kim-427 maybe because I follow the Kabs fam. They're all into old school. And an American YT living over is always going to stuff with her friends families & their parties sound like my parents parties. But hell, younger Black Americans probably don't know this stuff. That's just bad upbringing. (I kid... maybe). My dad didn't listen to a lot of rap, but if he heard it or heard me play it, sometimes he'd school me on the sample if I didn't know.

[@Kim-427]

@@msbrandymo I hear that! I’m what people call an Anglophile. Lol I enjoy British tv, movies and culture. Not as much as I use to be but unlike many Americans I know much more about across the pond than most. LolThat ignorance thing is funny because as much as they think they know about us over there it’s ALOT that they don’t have all the facts to which leads to much misunderstanding about how things really are over here. But,I school my family and friends about different things. I’m an old head so I grew up with the Isley Brothers. I remember when my oldest son started listening to Hip Hop he would argue with me over songs being new and I would tell them that the sampling of a particular beat came from an original song. He didn’t believe me at first because of course parents don’t know anything. Lol Eventually,He got it. And we would laugh about it years later.

[@rbeck3200tb40]

In the 1980s "Yo MTV Raps" was about an hour long segment on MTV that played rap music. This was the only time MTV played rap music on their channel

[@larrymartinez667]

The ending is build up for Dr. Dre and cubes song natural born killaz

[@TheMtVernonKid]

One of my favorites ❤ of Cubes

[@sharoncrews9442]

I enjoyed watching your reaction to this! For more on Ice Cube during this era watch Boyz in the Hood movie. It’s iconic!

[@kabirconsiders]

I watched that movie a few years back I think, maybe I’ll rewatch it this weekend!

[@latin725]

Ice Cube is a good actor as well my favorited movies of him is Boyz and the Hood and Barbershop.

[@brianne1547]

Great Reaction!

[@monicamcfadden9479]

Shakem up shakem up shakem up shakem lol classic!!!

[@BrockMak]

3:15 Yes. Points and assists are easy, rebounds, blocks or steals are harder. Any 3 of 5 categories. Funny: He founded BIG 3, a 3-on-3 points First to 50 tournament in 2017.

[@nightsspell368]

~* Yeahhh... its a classic!!! Good vid!! *~

[@OneJourney3]

Kabir? You gave me the impression that you didn't realize Ice Cube sampled one of The Isley Brothers: I believe it was from the "Footsteps in the Dark" Track.

[@joshuabolton3866]

There is a great song when he was in a group called West Side Connection called The Gangsta, The Killa and the Dope Dealer. It is fire.

[@kabirconsiders]

I’ll check that track out

[@shashee0000]

The music (or sample) is “In Between The Sheets” by the Isley Bothers.

[@davidfreeman4426]

Right group, wrong song. Journey to Atlantis is the sample, Biggie sampled Between the Sheets for Big Poppa.

[@shashee0000]

@@davidfreeman4426 thanks for the correction

[@davidfreeman4426]

I stand corrected, the song was Footsteps in the Dark.

[@shashee0000]

@@davidfreeman4426 we’ll get it together eventually. 😉

[@kevinsevcechreactions6360]

That SuperSonics team was dope though

[@autofillautofill4946]

You should check out “no Vaseline” by ice cube. Still might be the best diss track ever

[@ryanleaf386]

Most commonly a triple double is 10 points 10 rebounds and 10 assists but it could also include 10 steals or blocks you just need to have double digits in any of the 5 stat category’s

[@ryanleaf386]

*So just double digits in 3/5

[@bikes-n-boost4089]

It could be 10 point 10 rebounds 10 steals 10 assists or 10 blocks pretty much getting over 10 in 3 different categories

[@kabirconsiders]

Ohh I see, so there are different types of triple doubles

[@bikes-n-boost4089]

Yeah pretty much

[@Terrell070]

I think the first album of his I got was Death Certificate. IIRC it came out before this song. Much of his music was about the broader ills of society, same was true for Public Enemy, and Ice-T. Anti police lyrics were not uncommon but they were about said police abusing their power without consequences. Rodney King would be a good example from that era, he was beaten by 4 cops on video. Those cops were acquitted despite the camcorder video. TV's still had CRTs, Camcorders were a thing, VCRs were commonplace, beepers were a thing, & so were pay phones.

[@str8legj]

Classic song from The Predator album. Wicked was probably the biggest song from the album. Check Yo Self was a good one too. Lethal Injection is still my fav Cube album though.

[@jessicaross417]

this makes me want you to react to "good day" by nappy roots. totally different song but it kinda gives the same feels.

[@willardwooten9582]

Only 3 Rappers that I'll listen to the whole song . Ice cube , Snoop Dog and LL Cool J .

[@kabirconsiders]

A man of good taste Willard 😎

[@laurataylor8717]

We have a local restaurant that has his picture on the ice dispenser. 😎

[@kabirconsiders]

That’s pretty funny 😂

[@YouFilthyAnimal74]

I know this was two years ago but the follow-up to this video is Check Yo Self.

[@dataquitosqueen]

In a completely different genre here, but 'Jolene' or '9 to 5' by Dolly Parton are both classics that other people have had a good time reacting to. I'd love to see your spin on them

[@kabirconsiders]

I'll put them on my list!

[@katharrell3737]

Really enjoyed this. Thank you for your variety, it becomes mine as well. I guess it "was" a good day. The ending surprised me.

[@kabirconsiders]

Yeah this was fun, like a little movie

[@davidthieman8020]

Kabir, You did Reacts to a very good reacts of Today Was A Good Day by Ice Cube.

[@kabirconsiders]

Thanks David :)

[@emmonsfunk3967]

You should listen to Back in the Day by Ahmed, and I Wish by Skee-lo also

[@Deato9000]

A certified classic 😎

[@clintmoses957]

WESTSIDE!!!

[@paulhayes5684]

Back when music had soul

[@BrockMak]

5:42 Yes, I can't see them in NZ because it'd be SO NOT street legal.

[@H8Gravity]

For a great laugh the TOP 50 ESPN Commercials are great

[@kabirconsiders]

I’ll put it on my list!

[@ronluk76]

Hey bro, please react to "Last Time that I Checc'd" by the late great Nippsy Hustle feat. YG. Like Cube, two rappers from the LA/Compton area!

[@laaulilinalauano6817]

He rapped about his own life being a young black man in the 90s. Not most rappers rap about what goes on in their day.

[@riccorich]

Some dude broke down the exact day the song was talking about acouple years back

[@jeffburdick869]

Jan 20th, 1992

[@mikehunt368]

you haven’t actually listened to the song until you’ve done it stoned…. euphoria

[@MkA402]

Sampled from the Isley brothers

[@davidhasselblad3825]

Try out, The coup, phat cats and bigga fish.

[@c.f.3691]

Isley Brothers

[@jeriellhoyte7471]

Would love if you reacted to straight out of Compton music video

[@kabirconsiders]

i'll put it on the list!

[@jaredmize960]

A triple double can be any 3 stats in double digits. Even turnovers can count but that’s not a triple double you want

[@emaniburton9422]

Isn’t Friday based on this song anyway?

[@tmorgan4218]

Can you react to I’m sorry by Joyner Lucas

[@Sayitaintjake]

You gotta react to more black stuff

[@kabirconsiders]

like what? I'm geniunely asking

[@joyhildebrecht6670]
