What do you think of Logic’s new album? 👇

[@dewayneabner260]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@nobodyandirine]

Top 10 MC in history for me after this album no doubt 🔥 🔥 🔥 I wish him the best on his new journey God bless Bobby

[@liljupiter44]

A master mind album thats summarised logic’s whole career

[@my_name_is_emkay]

It's amazing

[@snake5621]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Ruhul612]

As far as him having an impact on hip hop. People don’t realise that he has got so many people in to hip hop, and lyricsm. This guy pays so much homage to the greats that you’ve had young people go back and actually listen to The Roots, Dilla, Mos Def etc, and really fall in love with hip hop. That to me is super important.

[@jordanarellano455]

Couldn’t agree with you more. Now a lot more people understand the history of hip hop a bit more and pay respects to the legacy of other artists. He’s just a hip hop head that makes music. I’ve always respected him for that.

[@RaiRaiBrown]

That's true, I was just thinking about the same thing.

[@fatcat7958]

bro that’s so true i fell in love w UP and the references to a tribe called quest really got me into them and now they are probably one of my favourite rap groups of all time

[@jordanarellano455]

Aly Id say Denzel Curry, Raiderclan did a lot for that as well.

[@michaelsilvestri202]

How can people hate on this man

[@itaintzxinab]

"im so happy you're happy" thanks for telling him for us. He deserves happiness

[@RaiRaiBrown]

Haha, definitely that's a beautiful comparison.

[@brianquinn8570]

So it sucks especially if hummed

[@katerpillur8206]

Honestly the most authentic response. Hopefully some of those music making moments on his own time could be sporadically released.

[@EvsPersonal]

Seeing Bob in interviews all these years I can truly see how happy he is now and how ecstatic he is to leave the internet/hip hop scene. It's caused him so much stress and pain over the years because he's such an emotional human being. Can't explain how happy it makes me to finally see him go and live his life and be truly happy.

[@rogermarks1110]

Leave the internet scene? Our guy just signed a deal with twitch and twitch chat is basically youtube comment section except LIVE and more obnoxious

[@RaiRaiBrown]

@@burdman1333 True. It's unfortunate that trolls exploited freedom of speech to abuse people over the internet, at this point, this is a sensible outcome for fans. Plus, the idea of being able to speak to the actual celebrity is amazing, it's more than a KZbin comment section which I really enjoy too, it's a paid vip section of positive interactions.

[@Pinkxsunset]

Bro you’ve been in Logic comment sections since years you’re a 🐐

[@prod.drizly5801]

This is a surprisingly deep interview tbh, shoutout the interviewer he did a good job and asked great questions

[@augierincon7218]

He is literally the Tarantino of hip hop

[@Boristien405]

Bobby Tarantino

[@rhino5250]

Yeah no one has really done concept albums like him

[@14_Phoenix]

Bobby boy "I’m resurrecting hip-hop like it was Lazarus" Real all the time

[@Artyushka]

Where is this verse from? I think he was inspired by Interstellar like the verse on "tits" album " feeling like Matthew McConaughey on a Interstellar mission"

[@14_Phoenix]

@@Artyushka it's from 'nasty'

[@kamdenwatterberg7412]

I like this interviewer(sorry dont know his name). good questions

[@Brooklynbenz90]

Logic is the GOAT, y’all, like when first heard his music, he got bars, lyricism and punchlines, we all love you, Logic, RattPack, all day, every day, for life. 💙💙💙💙💙🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Sijan.G]

Said it the way it is “Fire Album” Period.

[@KylahWashington]

I’m literally so proud of him🥺❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@chriscorea2430]

Is it just me, or is it crazy how when the interviewer signed off with telling Logic Peace, Love and Positivity, it hit different than when Logic says it. That’s the impact he has made on his fans and the people around his fans. Truly a beautiful thing that he created by 3 simple words.

[@KaizerNYC]

He says one thing that fuckin' stuck out to me so much holy shit. He said his race (being half white/half black/etcetc/ was never an issue until he started rapping and became a hip-hop artist. Then with all the negativity it made him depressed more than anything and shit. That's EXACTLY what the fuck happened to me. No one gave a fuck that I was "a white boy" or that I was Bengali, etcetc in the grand scheme of things. People used to always be cool with it. I got dissed every now and then but it wasn't really that fuckin' big of a deal in the bigger picture. People would always be cool with it. I remember someone once told me I was a white boy with flavor lmao. I live in NYC so that shit is especially normal here. I live and grew up in the center and birthplace of Hip-Hop and culture and unity and diversity. It wasn't until I became a rapper, I started getting hardbody discriminated against, judged, shut down, neglected, ignored, criticized, shunned, all that shit on a massive level. I remember stepping into the cypher a few years ago and right when I finally started rapping ill as fuck and getting my shit out there after years of being contained and quieted, the camera dude, who kept looking at me with resentful ass eyes and hate everytime I came there and rapped ill, literally turned the camera away and turned it off and shit. They didn't want a person like me to get my rhymes out there. They didn't want me to blow up and be somebody. Not me, you what I'm saying? No one will ever understand what the fuck it's like to go thru some shit like this, especially because you step into your life legacy and become the person your heart tells you to be; for being a rapper in the modern-world who happens to be a certain skin color or a certain race or a certain ethnicity or a certain type of person, etcetc. Hip-Hop in itself is beautiful and represents equality, unity and diversity. But it's also poisoned with the racism, discrimination and hatred of the part of society that represents and clings to those issues. And it's bad. It's so bad. The very people who aren't supposed to discriminate, fuckin' discriminate, and you become the center of that discrimination and hate in such a twisted ass way depending on who or what you are. Hip-Hop is beautiful, and it's been said that it represents the aspects of life and society that we deal with on a daily basis. Well, it's clear that right now, ignorance and discrimination are ALIVE and permeating the living entity of our beautiful world, all the way into the very essence and fabric of Hip-Hop itself, and we have to rise above that shit. Spread awareness, spread love, listen to people like Logic's story. Listen to my story. Listen to the story of those who have been crippled by ignorance and hate but refused to let it destroy them so that they could hold onto the light and give it to the rest of the world. That means you, all of you; all of us. Love belongs to all of us, no matter how badly societies within our nations want to hold onto ideals that just dont make any fuckin' sense and dehumanize innocent people who are just trying to live, live out their dreams and give... This message, this post, this is Hip-Hop. Does the color of my skin or the person I am change that? Peace and motherfuckin' love.

[@bmar_music]

Logic is different man. Blessed to have had him in rotation while he was dropping 🙏🏽

Great interview. Even better album.

[@plumpchicken6147]

This interview was so great and informational. Like loved to see Logic had to say after the album dropped, and his legacy.

[@MichaelCobbs]

This is a great interview.

I loved his answer about the "writers and critics". They call people "corny" then you see them and every single one is a hipster cornball who act like they can relate to the content of Gibbs or Griselda.

When he said im gunna raise my kids the opposite off how my family did in affect saying in possitivity... Hit me like damn people feel like me too?? Crazy huh 😅

Comment what you think his best album is ?? 🤔💯

[@JXDEntertainment]

Under Pressure Definitely

[@prithvibumia2941]

Under pressure, no doubt

[@adrian1601]

Supermarket kinda underated

[@dylansmith1548]

I’m leaning towards under pressure but YS3 even though it’s a mixtape is one of his greatest body’s of work

[@WhiteRose-ix9ww]

This album. Those that say UP are most likely living in nostalgia (which is fine)... but that can be ur fav without being his best. He's a way better rapper and his bars aren't just punchlines they're now well thought out gems. his flow is way better and he's more confident on the mic. I absolutely love TITS for its score like production and UP bc I've been a fan for like forever so the feeling within the fanbase before it dropped is forever in my heart and he finally got to tell his story to the world thru it but this album is a more mature and better arranged album. Lets let it live some more but trust me.... The bar about being Lucifer before hell was probably his wittiest bar from a "how'd he think of that" perspective.

[@Artyushka]

I think he was heavily influenced by Vash the Stampede from Trigun with that Peace Love and Positivity quote

[@ADUbzDancee]

So I'm confused now around 24:00 the interviewer was talking to logic about his identity issues and logic said he didn't have those issues until he got into hip-hop. At the end of "Take it Back" on Eveybody album, Logic was Talking about how he had identity issues growing up and his mom called him the n-word and his dad and other people called him a cracker so I'm confused on why he says this if he seemed to change his answer now. No Hate All Love im just asking a question

[@SammFigueroa]

AyeJay that’s fax tho

[@antsonone]

It’s probably in regards to the hate he got on his race, and how he probably ended up questioning himself and his race more as it became a meme on the internet. That’s my take on it.

[@adwayraje2330]

im sure it was always an issue, like he said people will make fun of him for It in hs or wtvr, but hip hop truly magnified that shit. thorn in the side to knife in the heart type shit ya feel ?

[@ArminMuslim]

Yo i think im gonna listen to his new album but Question for those who listened to the album: Is this album good?

[@Jeremy_Sims]

booty taker wow so he came back with this one I see...

[@WhiteRose-ix9ww]

tbh Its his best album yet. There's a difference between best and favorite and a lot of people that argue TITS and UP say that bc of nostalgia. If you want to be very objective, This album takes the best parts of both with way better and mature production value. I really think it deserves a rap album of the year num.

[@yawnyawn6038]

Beats aside, wack ...... maybe one good , then again you can hear him try to be Kendrick

[@WhiteRose-ix9ww]

@@yawnyawn6038 3k... it's a 3k interpolation kid. "Kendrick tries to be 3k"... that's pretty much what ur saying. Artists wear there inspiration on their sleeves... Cole sounds like Nas... Drake took the better parts of Kanye Big Sean and The Weeknd. its music. get over it lolz

[@yawnyawn6038]

White Rose oh Forsure , I couldn’t get over it if I’m not that invested into it to begin with , facts are facts , don’t know anything about “3k “ but judging by the tones he uses in every speech patterns and how he tries to portray himself as a rapper , they don’t match therefore , just not interesting to me to listen to ........ something doesn’t feel right with what he says .. he is living different lives and I think the majority of people who have came across him take enough interest to KZbin him , then like me , are disappointed when he isnt himself. Rubik cube and all .... them to hear him rap .... two different people ... wierd

[@dharaneeg4184]

I'll come back for a timestamp, did he slap Budden in this interview? I think he should respond to the rantman!
