First Time Hearing | Gorillaz Clint Eastwood

[@charlierayed]

Gorillaz is an animated band. There are only 2 real members Damon Alburn (the singer/producer) and the animator Jamie Hewlett. Their songs usually feature q guest rapper/singer. Definitely check out Feel Good Inc from them featuring Del La Soul.

[@gonzillamode]

You haven’t heard 👀🤷🏽‍♂️ shout out to Del the Funky Homosapien (Hieroglyphics) it’s Ice Cube’s cousin

[@xMeschx]

cant believe u never heared this before O_o classic!!! you should really check out "Feel good ink* from Gorillaz as well, realy nice vibes. "Dirty Harry" is really interesting as well.

[@joseduenas6253]

Nah, just for the likes

[@pauloflores461]

And "el mañana" Basically the Whole Demon Days album is a master piece, :)

[@pookievision]

[@victoriat2148]

gorillaz continue to be amazing even with their new stuff. You can't go wrong reacting to any of their songs, but I agree with the Dirty Harry suggestion!

[@j0hnn13K]

Aaah yes, the Gorillaz rabbit hole, now that is a truly fun one to jump into. Their music is timeless yet unique and their videos are works of art, the story telling and world building is incredible, all videos are more or less connected and tell one big story. And yes, they actually perform live as well, the virtual characters are projected and fully visible as the performing band, and the actual musicians are behind a see-through curtain. (you only see their silhouettes from time to time) During their live shows, the only actual (visible) people on stage are the rappers, the rest is all virtual projections, very impressive technology.

[@xXaoZz]

The rapper is Del The Funky Homosapian. One of the rappers in the 90s rap group Hyrolgliphics. One of the best rap groups as far as knowledge rap. Up there with Wu Tang Clan

[@andicapped7851]

Wu chang clan 😂

[@Rokurokubi83]

Gorillaz is all animated, it’s their gimmick. We know who the artists are, but on this project they chose to be an animated band. The music videos are damn cool.

[@raoulduke3417]

It's always a happy day when you discover Gorillaz.

[@BaltoD60]

Singer is Damon Albom from Blur. Rapper is Del the Funky Homosapien.

[@theghost6412]

Every inflection he makes is intentional. There is always an Apathetic or Melancholic sound to them. Other than the lead singer and the animator, they are constantly bringing in different famous singers, groups and the occasional random actor like Bruce Willis in their song Stylo.

[@BigFukNMike]

When you realize that Damon was the singer from Blur going "WoooHoooo"

[@rjeizzay9619]

-loves Del's flow *keeps interrupting Del's flow

[@Nickel138]

They’re not a real group. It’s a bunch of musicians and artists collaborating to make a virtual group. It was created by Damon Albarn from Blur (he sings on most tracks) and cartoonist Jamie Hewlett. They work with hip-hop producer (one of my favs) Dan the Automator as well as Danger Mouse. They have features such as Del the Funkee Homosapian, who is on this track, Hieroglyphics, Deltron 3030), De La Soul, Shaun Ryder, Bobby Womack, Tina Weymouth (Talking Heads), Mos Def, Vince Staples, Roots Manuva, MF DOOM, Miho Hatori (Cibbo Matto), Lou Reed (Velvet Underground) and a ton of other musicians.

[@be_quiet_and_drive]

Got this cd for xmas when i was 10 lol. Bringing me back. Ive loved this record ever since.

[@LemmyD_from_Germany]

I'ts all in your head 😎

[@98wytebird]

When this song came out the radio played it like every 5 mins.

[@billkarnes948]

I think my favorite quote on a Gorrillaz review was, "Gorrillaz...Way More Fun Than Real People!".

[@richardjones7984]

Great reaction. This song is wonderful, very deep, unpredictable and never a dull moment.

[@crcoghill]

1:54 wow! you really haven't heard of Gorillaz then. They ARE the band, my guy. who ever voices, sings or plays these characters: never shown nor told to the viewers. The band of Gorillaz are the animated fellows and we wouldn't have it any other way.

[@alisonmatheson7118]

Gotta check out Feel Good Inc. The Gorillaz is definitely a vibe!!

[@carmenohio8735]

The rapper, Del The Funky Homosapien from the group, Hieroglyphics is Ice Cube’s cousin

[@JVTrickypants]

Damon Albarn (the music, basically, with other artists) does write a damn catchy hook! He did it for a lot of years with his band Blur as well.

[@MurdocPickle]

Again with that name...

[@mightymight4348]

I can see ur eyes Dcared fr ur life has passed u by🤘🏽😁👌🏽🤘🏽 The 90’s were badass🤘🏽

[@indigorune]

have you heard any of their other stuff? they are great!! you should check out more--DARE, Feel Good Inc., 19-2000--all great songs with videos!

[@romankaufman4088]

This guy’s dope he’s like a thinking man’s reactor

[@annettemoynihan7064]

If you have heard of Blur..you should recognise the voice of Damon

[@JessH1]

I remember when this came out it was big. I forget any this song until I hear the first beat

[@sonny4757]

:O Why'd it go quiet on "It's all in your head" ?? Either way glad you like it!

[@White-Silent]

Yes, i don't get it too !!

[@kinas3973]

To add to the cheekiness of Mr.Albarn: a group of gorillas is called a Band.

[@pauloflores461]

for the first time??? 2 days ago??? bruh!!! when this was released back then it was even more mind blowing and really hard to classify as a genre, i remember this was on my "Awesome experimental music" list because it was so diferent and revolutionary

[@npotufsstrugas6390]

i like how you pause in the middle of del's flow contantly

[@carmenohio8735]

I just found your channel, and I absolutely love your selection. Liked & Subscribed to All

[@Mawluis]

I dont buy you never heard Gorillaz top hit.

[@kirasternenfeuer6198]

First of all the videos are telling the story of the band and the albums so I advice you to keep them in order even more so when you come to the plastic beach album entrys later on. Next song on youre video journey should be 19-2000 a catchy song you will not expect ^^ followed by Dirty Harry and Dare (creepy asian teen nerds fever dream of a dance song and one of the only few female mainvoice tracks) and Feel Good Inc and El Manana (those both vids are tied together) which basically end in a small tragedy for the band itself leading to the events of plastic beach a few years afterwards which are basically connected over several videos starting with Welcome to plastic Beach, Stylo followed by Meloncholy Hill and Rinstone Eyes (while it had gotten its video cutted because of budget issues only the storyboard version is available stil awesome but there is a fand made animated version of the storyboard one I highly recommend to you) After plastic beach the whole experience for Gorillaz changes a lot with more focus on single tracks and featured artists and the developenment of the story of the band is a bit hidden between the lines but none the less a great experience overall and while Humanz replaces the bassist and Leader Murdoc for a short while with the villain Ace from the green gang from power Puff girls it is stil an extremly unique experience to watch the vids ^^ The Song Mashine album or I would argue experience is more accurate further focus on single tracks with Murdoc back to the band and some entrys you should not skip like Momentary Bliz for example a masterpiece by it's nature basically showing the record of the song in the studio with the band adding so much funny moments to it. In short if you have watched up to plastic beach allready and you are not hooked by then wanting to watch all of the musicvideos I would assume you could also leave them behind but I daubt this is possible as their is music for everyone included . I'm looking forward to your experiences with the Gorillaz ^^ (beside the vids there are tons of additional sources with infos about the bands history to explore beside they are only fictional of course and the real Gorillaz are basically the singer Damian Albarn ( from the brittish Band Blur) and the comic book artist Jamie Hewlett with lots of other featured artists alongside like Snoopdog, Schoolboy, Elton John, Little Dragon...... )

[@areneesouder]

Glad you finally got to hear this. Check out the other stuff, they're great!

[@JJ-tm8vq]

Keep that vibe coming young buck

[@travismunro7376]

Camt wait!! They're gonna be at the Life is Beautiful concert Iagain in vegas this year!!

[@ShylieKay]

Love this, this is one of my 4 yr old grandson Rhiat's favorite songs ever.

[@davissar77]

Here to enjoy the reaction to Gorillaz-fan est. 2001. Highly recommend LIVE performance of Stylo featuring Mos Def 🔥

[@hollysmith9979]

Love them!!! More of them!!!

[@echopryme]

Its CRAZY good, right?!?! 😎 Thats Del tha Funky Homosapian on the verses. 😎💯

[@mightymight4348]

[@jameso7826]

Gorillaz - Saturnz Barz one of my favorites, and the video is awesome.

[@briandaniels8945]

It's ice cubes cousin rapping

[@bjam27]

There's a live of this song featuring Snoop Dog... So good.

[@ViVaLaRan]

[@LemonTree9280]

Gorillaz is the musical equivalent to the On Cinema universe

[@oxhorn2906]

There is no damn way you never heard this before.

[@dcg4mn]

Founder Albarn wants it to be about the MUSIC and not cults of personality: like every Madonna video is 95% shots of her and her face. Gorillaz you never see their faces (except sometimes guest rappers) When I saw Gorillaz at the Apollo they performed behind a scrim! and only the guest performers were in front of it (like Dennis Hopper and Lou Reed) ✊🏽

[@ScootLoops616]

Love me some gorillazs. Another sweet music video is Stylo featuring Bruce Willis

[@RogerThatImages]

I saw one of their concerts on TV once. It was basically a large video screen wirh everything animated. The musicians were off to the side and kind of hard to see most of the time.

[@Rokurokubi83]

Rapper is Teren Delvon Jones, or ;’Del the Funky Homosapien’ or ‘Sir DLZ’. West Coast rapper and cousin of Ice Cube.

[@travismunro7376]

Del the funky homo sapien... check out how this track was made.. pretty fvckin epic..

[@catherinerainville4232]

How can we see how it was made? Link?

[@AlabasterJazz]

Absolutely more of this! Faulty Towers, Flying Circus, and literally anything and everything by Monty Python

[@xXdallonXx]

Gorillaz first album is still the best one! Love Damon Albarn

[@Jude74]

Plastic Beach is pretty good as well. 🙂

[@sbombeck5419]

Stylo, Feel Good Inc, Cracker Island

[@jesselee128able]

Theyre so fire 🔥

[@Jude74]

The rapper is Del the Funky Homosapien, he’s crazy good.

[@nonymouz9334]

Wasn't he part of Deltron 3030 as well or am I wrong?

[@itsthatguy478]

Greetings from Arizona, USA. Song suggestion : Electric Callboy - We got the moves. 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@thumpyloudfoot864]

This is what Graffiti sounds like...

[@clydecarzano5657]

this dude, where you from? what have you been doing? why haven't you heard about this amazing artist? you for real?

[@calebelkins8600]

Check out mastermind by deltron 3030

[@anglerfish61]

Saturn Barz with Popcaan or Pacman with Schoolboy Q is also fire

[@CrFouquet]

Even in concert it's the animation's not the physical people producing it. Music is supposed to tell a story. We had lost that, about 2006

[@robertmacdonald712]

Can watch a live performance on Letterman. A great watch.

[@SpikeMatthews]

You might like the more radio-friendly remix too by Ed Case. It's a bit faster, and somehow even catchier.

[@kci517]

It def have that hook!

[@FakeBeatle538]

They are the cartoons 🤯

[@charlesng604]

check out stylo form them! great video to!

[@joshuac2577]

Del The Funky Homosapien is supposed to represent being the Embodiment of Music itself

[@snicka8173]

The rapper is Deltron 3030 or Del the Funky Homosapien.

Plz review cannibal corpse😁👌🏽

[@PedroMendes-kh9tb]

I just can't buy it. You're around 30, you surely have listen to gorillaz a million times. Is genuine content so hard to create?

[@xXdallonXx]

Check out the video " Year of the Equinox " by Skrillex. Your reaction will be 🤯

[@chuckread5801]

Yo. Do some more gorrilaz.

[@JeremeDavis]

I recommend not to look into the fictional lore of the band unless you have plenty of time to go down that rabbit hole, it is a doozy.

[@jdub5644]

As old as you look, there's room for serious doubt that you never heard this. Should've went with a Ariana "Gonorrhea" Grande song to be more believable

[@Sourman1545]
