[@lukeg3983]

you got tyson fans, logic fans, then you got guys like me that idolize both of you and live for intelligent musical collabs

[@ferriswill4929]

Luke G ur cool

[@therealfrankmossofficial]

you are a smart logic fan :) awesome. I love sway in the morning too!

[@wizkaqueefa9003]

Neil is the nice caring dad that was never around in logics childhood

[@MaximusRS3]

Uncle Ruckus he did call him dad in the video :)

[@zephyrpiper5811]

Uncle Ruckus time??

Uncle Ruckus and he looks like him

[@murraypattison7471]

I see Neil deGrasse Tyson, I click. I see Logic, I click. Neil deGrasse Tyson & Logic in the same video? I click twice

[@krispetrov1075]

Murray Pattison so you paused the video?

[@sirvosterzo]

Not necessarily. He could have also made it full screen.

[@krispetrov1075]

Nah if he clicks once he starts the video , the second click pauses it

[@sirvosterzo]

Not if he clicks in the right place. And he better do it for the Logic-Tyson combo.

[@krispetrov1075]

you are proper dumb

[@mikeystapleton]

Neil: I shit after I eat breakfast Logic: wow

[@TheTwilightShadow69]

Neil: I shit after I eat dinner too. Logic: WOW, that's gangsta

[@ishmellu7438]

Neil: I shit while sitting on the toilet. Logic: Whilst on the toilet... I feel the urge to shit, which was the reason I got on the toilet, so I do.

[@Mushroom0929]

Get tf outta here you have no realization of intellectual intrigue you pathetic loser

[@budalaodcoeka9265]

Neil:let me tell you a secret,humans must have sex to reproduce. Logic:Wow,thats cool.

[@qusigh]

That's Crazy

[@Seaneskatejitsu]

The production on this beginning skit is insane

[@Adam-ff1zt]

This man Tyson really got the best voice after Morgan Freeman. This dude can talk about taking a shit on a Saturday morning and I would listen to every second of it

[@carlo3953]

Adam 1 like Bob ross

[@michaelryan2054]

cant forget my nigga David Attenborough

[@Jack-rk7jc]

James Earl Jones is top 3, I give everything just to have Mufasa narrate my life

[@TheRichWorld61]

don't leave out James Earl Jones... He played voice of Mufasa from the Lion King

[@yesmypfpisacatdoingthefuck4603]

Adam 1 facts

[@azobruv]

Neil: I took a shit this morning Logic: Wow...

[@shutyobtchassup1641]

Azo logic:Did you know I'm mixed?*

[@Ifuckedyourbitch-nn6yb]

Also Logic: Im half black and half white yo, im biracial.

[@Ifuckedyourbitch-nn6yb]

Bob and you're a butthurt Logic fan.

[@Ifuckedyourbitch-nn6yb]

Bob so why are you trippin' on a joke??

[@Bob-kn5gw]

+I fucked your bitch I'm not. actually thought it was funny

[@SoloBroTV]

Never imagined a rapper and a scientist could have a serious collaboration. Great for the future of hip hop and music in general.

[@micahgrizz]

SoloBroTV real talk

[@JoseRodriguez-pz9ng]

SoloBroTV neil also collaborated with avenged sevenfold

[@SoloBroTV]

I'm not saying this was so serious. I'm just saying I think it cool for a rapper and scientist to collaborate in a way that isn't like a corny commercial or something.

[@OrranM]

irs cool because they both went into a lane that none of them have never explored. I really liked the story line and the voice acting, but because of this lack of experience, the story line had logical holes in them.

"Fuck the genetics!" -Neil deGrasse Tyson

[@rolliepollie8512]

Ryan Lawton 😂😂😂

[@ubermensche9300]

This kid is the real deal. Space is our future. Positivity is our attitude. And Logic is our tune.

[@neelpatel896]

Manny Ramos and England will be our city

[@jessicabarco72]

YESSS!!

[@JoseHernandez-hb8vf]

Bro as a first generation immigrant, what Neil said was deep af. My greatest fear is that my kids will be dead beats. The beautiful struggle shapes us and makes us appreciative.

[@JohnDoeTheGoodGuy]

Your kids will only be deadbeats if you fail to raise them properly. They can grow up in better conditions than those you grew up in, and have more opportunities than you did as a kid in your original country, and they'll still turn up like you, or even better than you, provided you raise them well.

[@SalutexMO]

John doe you are giving me cancer with your comments...please stop.

[@JohnDoeTheGoodGuy]

+SalutexMO No one's even talking to you. Kindly fuck off.

[@Vic-rf6hs]

Jose Hernandez Do everyone a favor, and dont have kids, period.

[@SogMosee]

There's a quote Jose that goes like this: show me a great man who is the son of a great man.

[@yaboi9632]

Logic, J. Cole, Kendrick and Chance are all great rappers

[@infinitetundra]

disfume So happy he didn't mention any mumble rappers.

[@elijahuntalan6302]

disfume yup

[@WACHULUKNAT]

opinion: chance subjectively and barely belongs on that list. I'd say my appeal for him is like 90% rooted in him being young and funny so yes good energy. but without being too much of a hater ill say for me, he never comes off as a revolutionary genius god like the rest of them on that list.

[@yaboi9632]

Very true, I personally just enjoy the vibe Chance's music gives off

[@albertoxp03]

g easy too

[@SeanyMc]

I need to see the Everybody documentary

[@lillettuce]

need a link to download it? I have one

[@lt0528]

Lil Lettuce sure

[@fiber35]

Also want a link!

[@lillettuce]

here is a direct download www.mediafire.com/file/jb42l6qdoax62zm/14_Everybody_Documentary.m4v

[@fiber35]

Lil Lettuce lit 🔥🔥

[@santanagonzales3478]

Neil deGrasse Tyson saying the word "Fuck" is great.

[@audreycarlin]

all i want in life is for someone to look at me the way Bobby looks at Neil

[@MetalOfSweden]

Exactly

[@POTSOJ]

If that's you in the profile I looked into your eyes and you are beautiful but you seem so sad.

[@ralainarose6848]

fact

[@snubsnab8022]

I just absolutely love how Neil was talking about family trees and basically said people are connected to everybody so he was kind of poking a stick at logic saying he's more than black and white he is everybody to an extent and we are all everybody to an extent and that you can't go based off of your ancient ancestors but your current ones.. just pure knowledge from that man

[@joescho]

Yeah that's what the whole concept album was about

[@younglebron101]

The "waiting room" track on Logic album is amazing

[@AgeTheConfusion]

That track gave me extreme anxiety

[@notclips4u]

AgeTheConfusion same

[@user-ve9xl9uo2c]

why?

[@lukec1471]

Because he was waiting for anziety to come on

[@riotpoliceTRELL]

So when's logic leaving his wife for Neil

[@Orrinton]

Hahaha this should be top comment, only one that's not copy/pasted and actually made me laugh

[@jonathancasey5063]

Ben Wade straight up not true

[@erika8450]

Ben Wade 😂😂😂

[@InMyBassMent]

Ben Wade we're related...

[@maxbranch170]

Lol

[@JT-hl6zd]

beautiful.

[@Shayor100]

The album is from so many perspectives and all you people could talk about is how he talks about he's mixed.

[@rookie713]

Shayor Hamid ikr, he only talked about his race in 4 songs on album: Take it back, Everybody, AfricAryan, and Mos Definitely

[@rookie713]

The rest was about other people's perspective

[@rookie713]

Shayor Hamid And Black Spiderman

[@mgs1398]

To everyone saying they not really feelin this album n his old shit is better, I got a simple quote my uncle used to always tell me about artists, "your new shit ain't as good as your old shit, until it's your old shit."

[@advct2860]

mgs1398 bro why you got to lie about your unlce saying that

[@mgs1398]

ADVCT it's a saying, I never said my uncle made it up. He's just the person that used to often tell me that. I've heard others say but thats the person I heard it from originally.

[@14chicharitoManU]

mgs1398 good thing it's just a quote and not law. Wouldn't want my standards to depreciate.

[@kevooo1250]

But honestly his old shit was better, this album is ok tho

[@mgs1398]

ButImNotAReviewer lol I feel you bro

[@thedelucafamily4441]

Look at Logic's face @ 19:37 - 19:52

[@jasonfontaine7072]

Today I heard NGT say "Fuck"

[@jonsnow5502]

jason fontaine when?

[@Adenohypophysis0]

Still better soundbyte than all of Logic's album

[@ghjhty7]

jason fontaine listen to him on Joe Rogans podcast. Plenty of F bombs to hear from him.

[@jetman1895]

jason fontaine he's just keeping it 💯

[@AdrianSntbnz]

jason fontaine i have my ringtone to NGT saying fuck 😂😂😂😂😂

[@maxfloallday]

"dude you havent had a hit single" -Savage Neil

[@chrissouza2107]

One Punch Man Fade Away.

[@maxfloallday]

I love logic, but its true

[@jajaken4696]

One Punch Man what time did he say this?

[@maxfloallday]

10:19

[@chrissouza2107]

One Punch Man black spiderman

[@bchristine4792]

Logic looks so happy, as always 😊

[@ngatupuna3316]

people were mad at him for not speaking about blm/america. but know that he's done that ya'll still mad

[@owhs]

14:55 Neil _REALLY_ sounds like Seth Rogan at this point... anyone else hear it? :')

[@jonathangoode123]

Bro Fr tho 😂😂

[@jumpstart55million]

Reminds me of my interactions with my college professors..Nothing like chatting with an older educated person that knows their shit...Really puts things into perspective.

[@MookDollas]

black artists don't even do stuff for black people so I don't get how people can get mad at the fact that a biracial rapper is trying to do something for black people, the world we live in, smh

[@nemo2327]

MOOK Dollas him Jcole we don't deserve em💯

[@requix11]

MOOK Dollas True as fuck!!! hip hop is unforgiving as hell. whenever people that aren't black try to help them and their problems they decline it and shit all over them. same thing with with any other culture really.

[@AddRoc52]

MOOK Dollas how the fuck do you know this I've read countless articles through the years of rappers doing good things for their neighbors and schools.do research

[@SteelersLakersFan]

This is the dumbest comment ever. Tf is Logic doing for black people? Kendrick dropped a whole album for the culture, was it great? No, but it was for a certain group of people

[@rh371]

SteelersLakersFan What is logic doing for blacks? Have you forgot he just released an album about how black people are equal and that they need to fight for their rights?

[@AngelesAguirre09]

That wink at around 1:13 kills me everytime🤤😍😂

[@bonrind]

I dont who this Logic kid is but he seems bright.

[@KM-gu5cs]

RAIN he's a rapper

[@Rick-bn7ez]

RAIN well you don’t 😂

[@deadmanperipherals]

Lyrical unknown misfit Be nice. It could have been a typo.

[@nemesis3282]

Where's my RattPack at?

[@jameshamilton8257]

When you're here for both Logic and Neil cause you're an Astrophysicist but make Rap on the side as a hobby :)

[@crackerdnzl]

cool

James Hamilton When you need to get your priorities straight.

[@jeff_king6543]

Anthony Johnston hyjg

[@lilgsq]

Link see your best shit and a listen

[@nicklas988]

Hands down, the best video i have ever seen on KZbin

[@URCRINGE]

16:30 Looking back on it, I think this part of the interview inspired logic a lot due to the fact his song called "Legacy" talks about the same scenario. It's crazy I missed this and goes to show how words hold value and can stick with people no matter what. Like Logic says; "Inspiration hits at any time"

[@TheKingdomhearts99]

I HAVE NEVER HEARD NEIL CUSS IN MY LIFE, THIS IS WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF.

[@The213pr0ductions]

He did on JRE

[@colind7743]

Watching this video makes me SO happy. I love how 2 icons of their own fields can come together and make something special, its fucking AWESOME

[@doginsombrero25]

Freaking awesome to me how his album is projected to sell 220k-240k first week. #RattPack

[@austina6786]

doginsombrero25 i heard somewhere its projected to do 400k

[@JWill951]

Austin A The bigger the better. its about time, he's getting some recognition.

[@dennisf5774]

Jarrad Williams well there's one more album after this so he should have gotten it a while back. Unless his last album sells like 500k

[@jaimeflores957]

doginsombrero25 better go platinum he went gold on tits and up

[@xHibachi24x]

I love me some Logic, but I wish he had mentioned the fact that the inspiration for The Incredible True Story was from the movie Interstellar. He did mention it in his vlog on his KZbin channel with a tour of his room, but that video won't get the same views this will in my opinion.

[@stevej1311]

xHibachi24x he mentions interstellar in Run It

[@callmemyth8986]

xHibachi24x this video isn't about that though, even though Neil is informed on the whole sci-fi thing given he's a scientist the video was with him bc he was a big part of Everybody

[@wessteyrn7746]

Such well spoken people. Such a well put video. i would want to write some of my favorites quotes from this but there are just too many. Artists like Logic need to be pushed a lot more upfront. This the type of artists we need to be the mainstream voice of our generation. Shoutout to whoever filmed and edited this at Complex as well. Great job!

[@EvsPersonal]

This video is incredible holy shit. y'all cgi'd shit and had cameras everywhere this is like Logics first start at his acting career. will watch again

[@Diamiratrapbeats]

Two of my favorite guys in one place. This day doesn't get any better! 😎😝

When he opens the pouch to document something awesome he just learned is legendary. The sound of the zipper, classic. Makes me want to go get one. Now cue the Stones...

[@HuggieB]

A like button gives this conversation no justice. Much love Complex

(wo)MAN. Woman implies mankind.

[@boombeatz27]

Carl Jung I think WO is actually appended to MAN because they were made by the graft of the man's WOmb at creation. Mankind as a word doesn't imply unequal bearing on a civilization toward one gender.

[@Code_Fish]

The breakfast club ft logic and Neil

[@icon4thafuture]

Lol

[@rashaad5432]

At 20:02 Neil looked at the camera like he knows he dropped some science

[@bchristine4792]

I learned so much from this. Everyone needs to watch this

[@amayahernandez600]

i could watch them all day , can someone make this a daily thing

[@dusky_og]

Logic's came a far way, and how is sitting with one of his idols, so awesome.

[@eddieking2976]

Almost didn't watch this because of the intro. Glad I stayed though. Nice interview.

[@Strype13]

How did I not know this existed until now? What an epic fucking duo.

[@pvva8911]

Neil: Gravity, or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass are brought toward (or gravitate toward) one another, including planets, stars and galaxies. Since energy and mass are equivalent, all forms of energy, including light, also cause gravitation and are under the influence of it. On Earth, gravity gives weight to physical objects and causes the ocean tides. The gravitational attraction of the original gaseous matter present in the Universe caused it to begin coalescing, forming stars - and the stars to group together into galaxies - so gravity is responsible for many of the large scale structures in the Universe. Gravity has an infinite range, although its effects become increasingly weaker on farther objects. Logic: lol I'm black

[@mminfinite1518]

who dis I love these jokes 😂

[@BlackGodKing-oi2gr]

who dis Lmaoo!!!!

[@sebastiansebastian5270]

who dis I thought you were making fun of Neil by the way he kept using synonyms.

[@sebastiansebastian5270]

who dis I thought you were making fun of Neil by the way he kept using synonyms lol

[@isaiahsudler2103]

who dis that was actually funny the rest on here are ass😂😂😂

[@bourdon98able]

I could listen to these two men talk all day its incredible

[@RickyRider35]

Logic is such a nuanced, integrous rapper, above all when compared to other people in the game these days... Definitely one of the hip hop artists I respect the most from this generation

[@Mquin02]

Thank you for this! Two of my favorite people on this planet. I could watch/listen to them all damn day.

[@JBRam7]

This could've been 2 hours long and I would've watched the entire thing. This was great.

[@Jharrisimages]

"I hope we can all just get along" True motherfuckin' words.

[@lukec1471]

I would love to have a conversation with both of them

[@tyisnt]

I wish I could've been in on this conversation, maybe one day.

[@TheGolfer676]

What an absolutely amazing conversation

[@d3Str0Y3r961]

Why hasn't Logic ever mentioned that he is half-black ? Is he ashamed of his heritage ?

[@CreateViperrr]

d3Str0Y3r961 he has multiple times on all of his old mixtapes

[@KM-gu5cs]

d3Str0Y3r961 he said he was proud to be black in his new album and his old old mixtapes

[@PrototypeFTW]

CreateViperrr Guy, he was just joking.

[@d3Str0Y3r961]

+Prototype Glad you got it 😂

[@SkateFallen1424]

i think he may have mentioned it like once in some super rare leaked footage one time

[@abdulkadirali96]

Wow these two make really great points. Especially Neil dropping those gems about recording a photo or event. @ 19:49

[@apollohd00x]

Honestly two of my biggest inspirations. Thank you for this

[@damoncorforte_2215]

Man Neil being like "WHAT THE FUCK?!" had me dying 😆

[@dizastavina]

Math examination Suppose 2 logics= 1 neil 1 million lil uzi = 1 logic how many lil uzi is equal to 1 neil tyson?? ( 50 marks)

[@navoonraj]

dizasta vina 2

[@firstandforever8294]

dizasta vina 2 million

[@aorbital3628]

Naveen Raj Lol it’s 2 million

[@lilgsq]

2 million it's not that complicated but even a million uzis wouldnt equal 0.000000000000001% of logic

[@deadmanperipherals]

2 million uzis = 1 neil

[@Mateo_TheMadtumi_Vendryes]

Two of the most underrated respected people I admire 🌎✊🏽💯 I want to meet them one day ...

[@kuntamdc]

still great to see these guys talking.

[@jew-zmc]

10:18 Neil: So dude you haven't had a hit single, what's wrong with you? Logic: "Face gets red" I don't give a shit!

[@Kigoz4Life]

yes we saw the fucking video. u wanna get likes or what? jew fuck

[@Kigoz4Life]

your name is jew- z. Why u being nazi semantic? Nazi hater?

[@Nilcluee]

Kigoz4Life He's just pointing out a scene from the video, you really need to take a chill pill.

[@tepaboy6108]

Two people I love listening too, at the same time, amazing!!!!!

[@sk8erz6721]

When I first heard listened to Everybody and followed the story that was within, it immediately seemed like an adaptation of the short story "The Egg".

[@av8534]

Neil dabbin lmao

[@tenzin8773]

This is how our generation should be, a marriage between art and knowledge of everything.

[@msyedx]

This neeeeeds to go viral!

[@johnnybravo7644]

1:40 "... THE FUCK"

[@PK__44]

Seriously?You need to take his album for what it is; art. Whats with all these jokes about Logic being biracial. No need to be so black and white.. Like logic. Also, did you know he's biracial?

[@dejakhalz]

There are a lot of Dutch paintings that got generic names like black lady. Milkmaid is one that comes to mind, but some paintings are just called things like ''woman with red dress'' or something, most Dutch paintings are just the shortest description of what's on the painting.

[@masked4937]

19:46 while Neil is giving Logic these philosophies, he already thinking of Lyrics for his next album from it xD

[@kevooo1250]

The beginning was a lil bit cringy...

[@GraniteInTheFace]

Ending was cringy too White guy saying "thats pretty gangsta", "thx dawg"

[@eli_maagicvlogs9921]

Wow, Chris, you should join a dodgeball tournament. Some of the biggest points that were thrown around in this video all missed you.

[@GraniteInTheFace]

he could be giving us the answer to the universe but if his delivery was cringey, it is cringey, is it my fault that I found something so odd that it forced me to acknowledge "wow this part is seriously unneeded and they couldve done without it"

[@yosraneda5543]

half white guy*

[@TheELondonTV]

One of the best videos I've seen from complex 👍🏾 I haven't heard of logic before I'm gonna check out some of his stuff

[@BlueberryBoogie]

This is beautiful. Two people I love coming together. Revolutionary.

[@volcomintality8638]

This dude is my idol #RattPackBoy

[@Kuwumii]

1:39 Thats Gold right there.

[@Ryantparker]

this conversation satisfied my soul

[@youngpavblo7255]

that shit about raising a kid in the suburbs and them growing up to be dead beats is so fucking true cause i feel like that which is why i want to move out into the city on my own and struggle

[@robertosoriano2054]

Best conversation I've listened to

[@brucepatrick9442]

i was slightly confused with what logic was trying to get at after neil did his entire breakdown on his disinterest of geneology, he just launched into his own story randomly

[@CristianQCruz]

We thank you for your voice!

[@1234practice]

Hey great interview guys!! Happy new year to you both!

[@flowerpunk5255]

I don't know much about science but thanks to this new album these two have made me learn one thing White + black = logic

[@ZelForShort]

[@Jzombi301]

Can y’all just chill wit that shit?

[@bchristine4792]

[@zlegend9443]

[@seedyeyesmusic7071]

you dont hav a hit single hahaha not now 1-800

[@lawrencejames8603]

The surface of contained water or any liquid fluid does not CURVE and is always LEVELED, this is a FACT of NATURAL PHYSICS. Take moment and think hard about that.

[@tracker93fl]

Lawrence James That's true, liquid on a planet gets pulled toward that planet's center, due entirely to gravity.

[@dasdda5898]

The Marker amen

[@lilmoo7682]

Technically it has a microscopic curve due to the curve of the earth and since the liquid is pulled to the exact center of gravity it has to have some sort of curve

[@arthurpalmer5926]

Damn, now I gotta go listen to 'Everybody'....

[@Shiv-jg6gs]

The thing about the Dutch painting is so interesting, although, at that time there was no culture/history in Dutch art to title paintings, e.g. 'Girl with the Pearl Earring'. This means that it is likely that it was someone else, further down the line who gave it that 'title'. It could have come fron the artist, but then wouldn't have been any comment on the intention of the work, but just a quick identifyer in their body of work. Still very interesting, amazing how things can be reinterpreted in differing contexts.
