[@bxchillybomb]

[@DanielRodriguez-gm1to]

Aquatic Blur thank you! They just love to hate. Fuck the haters

[@cyberrcel]

i think only everybody and black spiderman talked about that on the album but don't quote me on it

[@JasonBourne-km8pj]

Bet you haven't heard EVERY song

[@5enr]

Aquatic Blur I'm genuinely curious have you heard Statik Selektah - Alarm Clock ft. Logic? Not a lot of people have and Logics verse is 🔥🔥🔥

[@adak613]

Logic Is the BESSSSSTTTTT🔥👾🔥👾

[@ashleyjg5620]

You represent and can understand both sides so well. I think when it comes to race, we can't see the other side because we aren't that race, but you have experienced it. You experienced both sides and understand. I love that you can portray that message to the world. And be about equality

[@joeissa6632]

It's always great to watch Logic's interviews

[@dbarraza8848]

I really wish he rapped more than one verse

[@lesleycarter2645]

I love logic's story

[@mfdonn]

Only thing I would of asked Bobby if I was Nick would be why he didn't rap what he was talking about in the 4 minute talking rant in Take It Back. Just imagine a full song. It's unfortunate listening to the song for a minute and a half and then you're like welp it's over now.

[@Bam2106]

Literally what I thought. He coulda RAPPED that part. He wasted what is 6ix's hardest beat EVER!! 😢💔

Logic the perfect teacher

[@auraofmiller7303]

Last time I was this early I was too late to think of an original joke so I used one from another video.

[@TIOBRYAN]

Your the realist brotha ever

[@estefanybrown3868]

Gonna see him here in Houston in a couple of hours ❤️

[@trentonkearney1938]

got them E. T fingers

[@prodJacko]

I want to know how the music video relates to the lyrics, if there isn't a killing spree video which shows how that apoclyptic scene was created, Im truley confused. Not trying to hate but its like every video is Bobby in front of the camera throwing his hands. I invisioned a completely different video in my head.

[@devanbarrios9216]

Jacko_ Yeah same here.

[@alebarajas3045]

Jacko_ there's definitely more to it. I'm sure that if there was a killing spree video it would clarify more but in the video it did show a lot. Anywhere from crooked police to him throwing away the gun and preaching about peace. There's definitely more that I can't remember, that's just what sticks out.

[@michaeltheauthor8714]

logic explained it all on a comment on some instagram fan accountand there's reason behind everything

[@Rare_Aivila]

Jacko_ under pressure?

[@lordreyna6924]

It's his personal story. This entire video was the explanation of what it is.

[@Cruzinator4500]

My personal opinion on Everybody: the production was stellar. Most of the beats caught my attention immediately, and they set the tone (get it?) for the vibe that the song would give off (for example, Hallelujah was a feel good, jumpy beat). The concept of rapping through everyone's perspectives was unique, but the lyrics weren't executed as solidly as they should have been. If you listen to the songs on Everybody, you get the hint that a little bit of a "Bobby Tarantino" style is still in Logic's lyrics (a lot of hype - "get up, get up, get up" but not enough pure, raw delivery.) After comparing Everybody to his previous works, such as Under Pressure, Undeniable, and Welcome to Forever, Logic's lyrics have downgraded. His delivery isn't as emotional or as serious anymore. Logic went from "Some people call me Robert cuz I'm all about the diNero" to "I ain't ashamed to white, I ain't ashamed to be black." For everyone who says that Logic does not emphasize his biracial biology in this album, yes he does. He mentions it in majority of the songs. This is only my opinion, but I know that I, and other Young Sinatra fans (Are Bobby Soxers still a thing? Or has he forgotten his Young Sinatra persona?), that Bobby should return to his roots for his last album and give his fans the greatest, most effectively delivered fairwell of the rap history, or of Logic history. Peace.

[@jonshukulli6944]

Jona Cruz agreed but he when a fan made an instagram post wishing that logic would make a young sinatra album this was logics response in the comments and im gonna be paraphrasing. " Nah fuck that, its gonna be alot of singing and ballads with me playing the piano. Enjoy the past, embrace the new" and if u heard his new song he plays on tour its a purely vocal type song he doesnt rap at all its just him playing the piano and singing which I will say I really liked honestly he has alot of potential with this new sound

[@570876dfh789thj78hf2]

Logic talks about him being biracial because he is setting the tone for this whole concept album, EVERYBODY. This album is for the acceptance of all people no matter who they are. This album was also the realization that Logic does not have to put on a facade to be successful in Hip-Hip (like his Young Sinatra persona), all he wants to do is be himself, unashamed. People seem to have a problem with him always talking about him being biracial but it was a key factor in finding himself and accepting himself for who he is, which, again, sets of the tone for this album. I also agree that Logic had more lyricism in his previous works (Young Sinatra, Under Pressure, etc) and honestly i think Under Pressure is his best album of all time, but for other albums like The Incredible True Story and Everybody he tries to zone from this previous works and makes what he WANTS to make, not what he HAS to make. EVERYBODY is a simpler concept album where he talks about people accepting themselves for who they really are, and thats where Logic is now, rather than his Young Sinatra phase, where he felt like he had to put on a facade (put on chains, etc) to be “acceppted” by other people.

[@anthonyabadia3984]

Yea, what you're describing is Logic being able to evolve as an artist. A skill that being a successful artist in pop culture REQUIRES. If we're gonna keep it real, "Confess", "Take It Back", "Black SpiderMan", and "AfricAryaN" are Logic career highlights. Also, delivery not as emotional?!? "Take It Back", "America", "Mos Definitely", "Anziety", "AfricAryaN"?!?!?

[@alexryan3263]

Jon Shukulli he played it in san fran it was amazing

[@briancasey19]

I wish he rapped his speech would've been fire 🔥

[@jizag0716]

Now that he got all this shit off his chest in this album, in Ultra 85 I just want RAW FUCKING RAPS and AMAZING PRODUCTION... PLS

[@DannyGOAT]

When these videos are about to end I get depressed..

[@akmod1418]

I love him...

[@Skibility]

His hat threw me off. Was totally expecting it to say flex

[@jd5726]

Yeah he based the design of the flex hate on this Nike hat, I've tried to find the Nike one online but can't get it anywhere

[@grandizabanga4714]

I don't like logics music but he's a great person I 100% support his message

[@coin5207]

Lol I watched this after MuchDank's parody of this video Everything makes so much more sense now

[@j0nnyb193]

Logic always wanted to do this, he knew some people wouldn't like it ofc but he made everybody with the goal of being like fu guys who want the same logic I've got stuff I wanna say... if you want lyrical flow logic there's like 5 albums/mixtapes of him going ham, relax people. Also j cole's africaryan verse makes the entire album.

[@MarwansMindOverMatterTV]

pimpin biracial butterflies but this experience is deep that he speaks it seems. my moms maiden name is irish, several generations back clearly an irish attacked. but he's got the instant moment of both consciousnesses, and he's sure to discuss light-skinned privilege as well i'm sure. colorism is wild yall. gradations of color the lighter the buffer

[@Visionx21]

Kind of funny how people get at him for talking about being biracial.. yet other rappers talk about Drugs , money , and sex non stop and it’s alright wake up people 😕

[@saggycooper4365]

Hello Hip Hop fans. I am looking for more of a fan base than my decently small hometown in NY before I drop upcoming music and projects. I have recently started a series called “Quick Bars” and I will be posting at least once a week, if not more. My main focus is in my lyrics, and I am grateful for anyone that takes the time to hear my words. Please leave feedback, positive or negative. I am always looking to better myself.

Take it back HAS no replay value with the speech at the end I need a cut version.

[@shade4044]

Kyle Nelson The video

[@darkknightcars7951]

What I don’t like about this video is the fact he compares every white man to a slave master, when African Americans were also slave owners. I just don’t understand why he makes his “white” side the bad side.

[@skd_don]

That's not true but ok

[@howbouudahhh4913]

[@myratty2]

Did everyone forget about Joe budden

[@slackstarfish8133]

I wish he would’ve just rapped the final speech. We’ve heard the same shit many times on Under Pressure, as well as just the title track of everybody. I don’t think logic will ever understand how the viewer sees his music, because there are flaws that he can’t understand from our perspective. He always sees it as people are shitty if they don’t like the song talking about race. And I know there are racists out there, but like the black people chant on Mos definitely is simply just cringy . I agree with the message, but even black people probably don’t like that. And people don’t dislike take it back because it talks about race, but because we’ve heard that same thing from logic many times, and it’s extremely repetitive. And then half of the song isn’t a song. It takes away from replay value. There are things he just doesn’t get.

[@cadaver..]

Woof

FIRST COMMENT!!!!!!

[@senonimoustv2497]

i like logic but this song ain't cutting it for me

[@fatihfattah8664]

R.I.P. young sinatra

[@blemdat1268]

Logic the only white guy that we let say the n-word

[@XXLGHOST]

Kp , he ain't white tho

[@gordoesgtheboycott]

xGhOsT what is he?

[@Gr0veStRain]

Rat pack gang

[@veqz9651]

I'm a logic fan but I really didn't like the album because I feel like he talks about the black race and the album is called Everybody and there's only two more songs that are about anxiety and suicidal I'm not trying to be racist but I expected a lot more like talk about more stuff

[@adrianzapata-nomadlife]

Edgar 301 Don't focus on the race part of the album, just enjoy the music as a whole

[@santiapollo]

Adrian Zapata I mean you can't really name an album Everybody if you're only gonna mainly rap about black people

[@DanielRodriguez-gm1to]

Edgar 301 he doesnt, he raps about a college student struggling to pay tuition, he talks about a man that has done wrong in his life and is trying to find god, he talks about politics, he talks about social media, he talks about a rapper that is just doing it for the money

[@veqz9651]

Ultra 85 what's the name of the song that's about trying to find god ?

[@veqz9651]

Ultra 85 the rest of them his still talking from a black perspective

[@SlyGuy901]

I'm black I'm black I'm white I'm white

[@rmonholmes7911]

First

[@fullthrottlemetric]

Can he talk and Keep his hands down ?! Damn. And why the airplane and totally unrelated video?

[@fab7z3io.o98]

first

[@jerads.7160]

How he thinks he is justified talking instead of rapping on this track is stupid.... Probably the best beat he has ever had, and he wastes it with talking instead of taking that speech and turning into fire bars. Shits annoying dude.

[@jerads.7160]

Cause ima tell you rn, NOBODY listens to that talking bullshit willingly, its boring and sounds like shit. If anybody listens to the whole song youre actually dumb xD

[@saulromero2635]

Jerad S. You know you talking to yo self right

[@austinfletcher5457]

Jerad S. I'm a big Logic fan and really enjoy his entire catalogue, but I have to agree with you on this one. If Logic had rapped over the Take it Back beat for 6 minutes instead of the 2 minutes of rap and 4 minutes of talking, then I think it could have easily been one of his best songs. I think Logic is a good enough lyricist to be able to put those 4 minutes of talking into some great verses, and in the end it takes away from the replay value of the song and the album

[@PaytonTYG]

Austin Fletcher takes nothing away from replay value for me, just can't bump it in the car or something like that but if I'm just vibing I'll play it

[@chileboolin2395]

Jerad S. Logic is straying further and further away from his old style of just spitting bars, and in general being a rapper, the speech gives more information on the meaning of the song, although it would have been better, he is telling his story in a way that is surface level easy to understand and to take in

[@gunnaryoumans394]

Only have one thing to say, the slaves were sold by their own people. They weren't stolen.

[@shade4044]

Gunnar Youmans And if you actually knew history instead of the bullcrap school or media taught you, you'd know there are countless stories of Africans who died trying to save those slaves "who were sold by their own"

[@Stealth991]

logic is white. his skin is literally white.

[@luka5465]

He just can’t accept he’s half white

[@TheMOVIEBEANS]

Logic is the whitest rapper alive.

[@Noirlore]

He is so glad he can use the n word now
