I can't believe I'm even correcting you but it's *Powerpuff girls* & *Mojo Jojo* Not Powderpuff girls and Mojo Dojo My guy I'm gonna assume it was just a slip. Also Tomorrow should be ERB I'd like to see and I think you'll enjoy Picasso vs Bob Ross

[@francescomutolo7692]

I’m Italian, the original song “Bella Ciao”, is really important for us. It is Symbol of freedom from the oppression of German troops (nazist) during WW2.🇮🇹 Thanks Hopsin!🤜🏼

[@eguzkineferreiro8863]

How do Italians generally feel about a spanish series having used the song? Do they see it as smth good/homage or something bad? Adoro Italia btw

[@digioselvatico915]

@@eguzkineferreiro8863 personally i don't really mind it. The lyrics would say: This morning, I got up, Ehi cutie, hi Ehi Cutie, hi Ehi cutie, hi hi hi This morning i got up And I found an invader (the Nazis) This song is all about being free of dictators, so being able to speak whatever the shit you want. So yes, this song itself can be used to say many different things. I'll tell you more: Hopsin with this song, Some series, Steve Aoki (if I'm correct) all used this sample and I cannot immagine something more suitable for freedom then the same melody used by different authors to say different things :)

[@ChairView]

i was today years old... lol

[@francescomutolo7692]

@@eguzkineferreiro8863 Personally I like it. Because I thinks in this way, this important song became really popular/well-know in the word and also because the objective of the robbers in the series (fight versus the government and try to change the situation) is really similar to what happened during the WW2 when the “Partigiani” try to rebel form german oppression. So for this reason I like it. But at the same time, I hate when I see not Italian people that don t know the story behind the song and they usually start to dance and to do strange stuff like it was a common and unmeaning song with a great melodie. I don’t like it because now, lot is people kwon the song but nearly no one really care about what happened in the past.

[@14thmonday6]

@@eguzkineferreiro8863 we appreciate every homage to Italy, if it’s well done, I’m Italian and I love this Hopsin song cause of the meaning of our original song he sampled, for me the part when he say badges of honor hit so hard

Isn't the lil white dude with the long blonde hair the Back Pack Kid ? Because he looks familiar af!!

[@quickhistory8637]

Bella Ciao was originally a song used by Italian Partisans during WW2when they fought Mussolini and the Nazis. It means beautiful or darling goodbye. Money hiest later used the song. Edit: Yes Knox knew it. Finally someone knew where that song was from Knox is the beat recator no competition.

[@absolutespoon2074]

Yeah not many other reactors even noted that it was Money Heist let alone the actual origins of the song

Of all the “I’m ahead of the game” bars I’ve heard in 30+ years of rap, Hop’s “I’m so far ahead, it looks like I’m not even here” is one of the best... no doubt about it Knox...

Haven't been this pumped by a Hopsin track since Ill Mind of Hopsin series

[@ashleycomer6119]

I was very happy for hopsin when he released alone with me because nf got him on the charts with lost.

[@ericgagne505]

Hopsin should be bigger than people place him. Dope verbiage, artistry and intellect. Love this dude. Had the pleasure of meeting this man. Humble and his mind never turns off. He's always saving moments in his back pocket to dissect and slay. Blessed

[@captaincannabis3321]

The only reason that he isnt one of the biggest rappers out there is because he doesnt have any "radio" songs. People like Drake and Wayne only produce radio songs and are also talented rappers and thats why theyre so big.

[@ericgagne505]

@@captaincannabis3321 I think we're slowly moving away from radio and TV based lyrics and filmography for the music industry. Maybe one day, we can value a wider range of talent, our own tastes and not driven by multi-billion dollar companies because of flashy colors, fast cars and models in swimsuits or hooker outfits. It's slowly going deeper into internet base which also scares me. It's a massive click bait mine field.

[@iulia.bianca.b]

I'm glad I'm not the only one appreciating Hop's voice. I love it!! He's got a unique voice, no one sounds quite like him. I love that last part where he sings softly. Gives me chills every damn time. He's got a very special place in my heart, he's so damn talented.

Hey man, as an Italian i really loved and appreciated that you knew the story of "Bella Ciao"... Much love from Italy 🇮🇹❤️

[@coregaming7304]

I think the once thing people don’t respect enough is hopsin gets all these views on his music videos without showing scandalous women modeling around him. He’s bars and music videos are top tier in my mind. Can’t change that

[@paulwidmann7758]

Mad respect to you Knox, wouldn’t have thought that anyone outside of Italy knows the origin of Bella Ciao👌🏻👍🏻

[@jordanfoy565]

You would be surprised friend. Those of us with long military lineage over here in the states know the beauty of that song. My granddaddy sang it in horrific broken Italian then I showed him napster lol

[@marisajoy1770]

Bella Ciao is such an important song. It's a protest song sung by mondina workers in the paddy fields in northern Italy. It was to protest the horrible working conditions they endured. I believe the earliest version was from 1906. Then adopted by the Italian partisans between 1943 and 1945 against nazi Germany. Then again during the Italian Civil War against the Italian social Republic(fascists). It was also modified to the 1943 version it was originally called "Alla mattina appena alzata".

Such a great song! Not sure if it's his usual style, but when he says "married to this motherfucking game", at least two times the dancers in the background give the Shady-style middle-finger (with the thumbs out). Is that a Hobsin-thing that he does that? Or is that paying respect to the other guy who is married to the game? (I might be totally seeing things... sorry if so!)
