Questlove & Chris Rock on Juan Ep

[@Usenabt]

Y'all can't deny MBDTF was one of the best albums ever made, that was literally a masterpiece and a sonic experience.

[@mr.2gr33dy7]

Sheesh it’s even been said album of the decade🔥🔥🔥

[@omen9431]

Best Hip Hop album ever.

[@aidan-131]

Don't know if you are still alive or not, but you are STILL not wrong 🔥

[@anduin1]

Chris is right, that album is easily top 5 goat. When I walked the streets of the world I had this album bumping and would play it for people who were blown away when they heard Kanye for the first time ever.

[@ThinkerHaistTV]

Kanye discussion @ 9:15

[@cuttaWunna]

thanks bruh

[@ThinkerHaistTV]

@@cuttaWunna You know it...

[@mbdtfd530]

CHRIS ROCK UR A LEGEND FOR THAT HONESTLY SOMEONE HAD TO SAY IT

[@iSee109]

It's time to listen to MBDTF now.

[@amir1295]

you didnt?

[@iSee109]

...again... It is time to listen to MBDTF again.

[@amir1295]

Larry Wiggs ahh okey

[@FaceClef]

I wish this convo could go on forever "This don't make you wanna murder a chicken?"

[@illmath1]

I couldve watched these dudes for hours

[@truuguy]

I remember the morning that I found out that Biggie died. I woke up to the radio as I used to do most morning. They were bumping a Biggie song. When that song finished playing, they bumped another Biggie song, then another after that. My blood immediately went cold! I turned to another hip hop station, and sure enough, they were bumping Biggie too. I knew he was dead!

[@KinTuza]

Rosenburg's hating on Ye cause of his friend Amber... #RoseyBitch

[@crisleroi299]

Yeah...and that's getting played out. I wonder what his wife thinks about his constant need to defend her. They can't be that close.

[@KinTuza]

***** Let's not forget his wife and brother.

[@MrMrYeezus]

Always loved Chris Rock!!!

[@Flowofwisdom]

I love this. Just an honest open conversation about hip hop with ?uestlove and Chris Rock. Very dope Rosenberg!

[@protejes1]

Coming back to this and Chris nailed it with American Gangsta

[@visas_marr]

is this a chopped up version of this interview or were they hella interrupting questlove?

[@vegunbtw]

nah they really off the shits

[@erronking7783]

Don't sleep on kanye as a lyricist but Em is waaaay better than kanye lyrically but music in General kanye is on another planet

[@kylemiller8530]

?uestlove looks so frustrated. I love MBDTF. One of my top 5 hip hop albums of all time. But I respect Quest and the roots as musicians so much that I wish we could have heard more of why the album frustrated him. On top of that, if he found MBDTF challenging, he probly has even more to say on Yeezus.

[@HipHopMovieNews]

Damn, I could listen to them 4 talk about hip hop all day. I thought I was the only one who thought "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" was Kanye's best album. Glad Chris agrees with me.

[@primitifsound]

Thanks guys for doing Juan Ep’s.. It’s dope.. Everytime

[@Saientific]

Seeing comments saying they're cutting off quest, i dont see it....seems like a casual free flowing conversation

[@Saientific]

Looking back..they kinda cutting him off

[@lilkeenan]

In my lifetime and life and times with s. Carter are Jays most underrated albums ever

[@RealtimeReviews613]

Keep these uploads to youtube as well hot 97 needs more youtube content

[@mexia23]

Amazing!! I can listen to Chris Rock talking hip hop or any topic all day

[@nietzsches01]

finally someone said it "better then eminem"

[@timy9197]

Lol oh shut up. You don’t even care that they’re talking about Kanye. You just want them to say somebody is better than Em no matter who they said.

[@CodysFavorites]

Holy FUCK this is so fucking awesome. WHEN ELSE do you get to see legends discussing and debating hip hop UGH this is like top 10 videos of all time

[@bighorse215]

Thank you finally people are finally saying that eminem is not the best. Eminem is only good on features and thats only because technique wise nobody can beat him but what he says in his raps sucks ass.

[@rje1157]

MBDTF is number 1 of the last 25 years... and you cant tell me nothing

[@RealtimeReviews613]

Its nice to see this back!!!! Less ebro is nice too

[@LivingBasquait]

Awesome conversation.

[@arcaneth]

Can't wait to hear the full podcast

[@jamarco31]

That Questlove story was epic

[@AirAlfies]

great interview! wanna hear the the rest!!!

[@marley1221]

Cipha never saw CB4? that's just crazy to me

[@crisleroi299]

...and he calls himself a comedian.

[@A1V1Productions]

Please, please, pease make the VIDEO RECORDINGS of the podcast fully available somewhere, (I know that the audio is fully up on itunes and soundcloud I just want to see the full juan epstein videos)

[@Dave....]

Best album ever? Now that's the craziest thing I ever heard. That's not even Kanye's best album ever.

[@dasmobster]

I'm going to assume Chris Rock feels that way because he seen where it was at some point in the project when he came in to do his part for the album and then to hear it all come together it means more to him...he sees the genius behind it...where we just see it as a project that has some hip hop elements and some of our favorite rappers sprinkled through it but doesn't quite sound all the way like hip hop...at least that what i get when i listen to that album

[@Dave....]

dasmobster Yeah I could definitely see more appreciation coming from it that way. It just shocked me even more that Chris Rock is way older. So he's lived through many eras and to chose that as his all time, just is wow. I'd expect that from anyone under 30. But it's his opinion at the end of the day.

[@Dave....]

***** To me College Dropout is always gonna be my favorite Kanye album. It was just an introduction into this new time of hip hop and culture where people were finally accepting to be themselves and do as they please.

[@amojynca8608]

College Dropout is before it IMO the way it was put together and the consistent vibe is just far too real

[@jamesbondjr4771]

***** wtf?

[@RuddySports]

Rock is right on with American Gangster from Jay-Z

[@rcraftee1]

I have to agree somewhat with Chris Rock. Dark Twisted does deserve to be mentioned among the great albums like Thriller and Purple Rain. I'm not sure I can co-sign that it was better than Purple Rain though. I will say that the only reason Dark Twisted didn't get it's just due is because the majority mainstream America was too anti-Kanye back then.

[@j0shxxv507]

Man I wish this full episode was still available somewhere

[@carlosaguilera12]

Forgot to give props, great podcast guys!

[@s0ngsyngr750]

Gotta say it's easy to tell Amir is the only musician in this group - because he listens & tries to talk, but one after the other interrupts each other...

[@gigac521]

legendary

[@MrCAMjA]

Y'all do know this is a podcast... this isn't your normal formal interview format. Downloan Juan Ep ASAP and enjoy the shows.

[@johnnyboyninety4]

It's crazy I said the same thing about American Gangster, most underrated Jay z album

[@DennisMendoza91]

Good interview! I agree with Chris Rock! :) Lol He knows his rap albums! lol

[@shortie9103]

I'd love to hear them talk about the Kanye album now

[@robg7843]

This is why l hate debating who is the best rapper or rap album with people. When people become fanatics, they can't be objective about a rapper or albume. Chris Rock now thinks MBDTF is the best ever cus he worked with him and the features? Are you kidding me? Better than "Purple Rain" or "Songs in the Key of Life?". And Questlove likes "Blueprint" a lot because of 9/11. And Rosenberg doesn't like "All of the lights?" You will have a head ache trying debate people like that.

[@mrjasonshay]

Forreal!

[@Ayplus]

He's obviously biased. . .whenever anyone can just flat out say 'better than Purple Rain, Thriller etc' without even trying to put up a suitable argument lol you know they're not being truthful.

[@ErosDavid]

There's no such thing as objective in this case; it's all preference

[@robg7843]

Eros David yes, there is. He said MBDTF is the best ever, better than "Thriller, Purple Rain" Did you listen to the interview?

[@mrjasonshay]

Completely different genres ...Like saying Wayne Gretzy is better than Michael Jordan lol

[@deanivan3951]

Chris must have hit his head,G.O.A.T. LMFAO!!!

[@TopFlightSecurity415]

ima listen to dark twisted fantasy one more time since a lot of people hype it up

[@samirango]

chris rock hit them with the FACTS

[@TheSoloJerk1]

@ 3:59 when Chris Rock said the source... Classic... DASS RIGHTTT DASSS RIGHTT

[@iamjasonbassett]

There is a full audio on Rapradar, over an hour and a half.

[@okniceguy]

Hey, ?uestlove, Where's D'angelo's album?

[@FaceClef]

If a hiphop conversation goes on long enough Kanye's name WILL come up

[@Bvtman]

damn quest, they did u dirty,

[@SpekksHOA]

Great podcast

[@AaronXKennedy]

I agree with chris rock on the kanye stuff, ppl just don't like kanye as a person so it makes ppl take away how great he is musically.

[@engholmlauridsen]

Chris rock was right all along with MBDTF

[@404lord]

For any1 that disagrees with Chris's opinion on MBDTF, you are some fucc bois who don't know SHIT about music and/or music production. That album is as decadent and beautiful as sonics can get. It's like 'Ye took all of the things that made his previous albums amazing and condensed it into a disc/iTunes media file. It's also him @ his darkest and most introspective moments with a lil (or a lot of) dichotomy on the side. It's the most critically acclaimed album out of any music genre in the 21st century so far and that's a fact Metacritic can even back up. GKMC, Take Care, NWTS and WTT can't even touch it. And that says A FUCKING LOT. Call me a Yeezy dickrider, but myself and many true music connoisseurs including a very noted hip-hop 1 like Chris will agree. Shittt, ppl who don't even like Kanye LOVE that album.

[@Ayplus]

Better than Thriller? Better than Purple Rain? Lol two of the most critically acclaimed albums from two of the most critically acclaimed artists that shaped the life of generations INCLUDING KANYE. You're comparing this album against 1 Kendrick album and 2 Drake albums. Hip-Hop didnt start 10 years ago. I wouldnt've even waste my time listing classic 90's albums that are just as intricate, you're obviously already biased for w/e reason, but I just urge you to atleast look up some of the great albums in music of the last 20 years before speaking. Music isnt sports, it cant be quantified so you're allowed to have your OPINION. But dont state it as FACT because some b.s. internet website told you to. Negros listen 2 rap all day and think they know music lol. I might as well say something stupid like the Mona Lisa is the best painting of all time.

[@404lord]

***** I will say Thriller is in the debate for that title, but more so culturally significant at the time than musically significant lol. And I never said my opinion was fact, but based on the odds they definitely are VERYYYYYYY close to it. And things in general get better over time as they're improved upon by new methods which is why I believe the best rap music is from 2000-present if you really look for it. And those albums I named are imo arguably the best rap albums of the past decade. Definitely the past half decade for sure. Like I'm way more impressed with the production of say a "Tuscan Leather" or a "All of the Lights" than fucking "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" or "Pop Life" lmfao. The only niggas in hip hop that I truly believe in right now is 'Ye, Drake, Kendrick, and J. Cole so those album picks in that regard are biased but odds also say it's not far from the truth. And it's not bad 2 be biased to those guys I just named. The only reason you probably look @ the projects I named the way u do is because they're relatively recent. It's like niggas is stuck in time periods they can't get out of and can't accept the new and modern and how this shit is way better and improved. These niggas is pushing the culture forward the way they're supposed to do it. Niggas need to get wit it

[@marjarasanjay]

Kanye is the most overrated rapper ever. He made some good music. Personally, id say 808's is his best album.

[@lokey987]

seanbond8 BAD>MBDTF

[@JEFFHERNANDEZ87]

More Juan Ep Videos!!!

[@lilkeenan]

Better Than Thriller? FUCK NO

[@taximan031]

[@dellophine]

[@mikevickilovedogs]

Lmao.

[@rayaguilera9058]

Questlove got no love on this interview lol

[@donob8325]

yall be disrespecting ye's imprint on not only hip-hop, but all the genre's in today's music, kanye fuckin began the mixing of genres in this generation

[@SweaterSwagg]

Ridiculous cap! Let y'all tell it Kanye just invented it all lol

[@RuddySports]

Honestly I wish this was the hot 97 morning show- maybe they'd beat 105. Rosenberg really shines here most times compared to him on hot 97 show. When u listen to 105 they are who they are at all on air times.

[@XodustheParadoX]

awesome interview! not sure if Chris Rock is trolling with all that Kanye's the best noise.. but ?love's story was crazy interesting!

[@postlex]

LET QUESTLOVE SPEAK

[@SweaterSwagg]

[@Ayplus]

Cipha Sounds says he hates the beat for 'Success' wtf is wrong with Cipha? Who hired him? Just let him stick 2 comedy.

[@OWXMUSIC]

Chris Rock is my dude. Quest Love is the dude too. Kanye's last two albums are great but Chris Rock is doing too much on Kanye's nutz

[@hillwill6113]
