Rapper reacts to Pink Floyd - The Wall for the FIRST TIME - LEAVE THE KIDS ALONE!

[@bodhisfattva7462]

it was a movie...treat yourself and watch Pink Floyd The Wall....and enjoy a drink or an edible or whatever floats your boat....it is a head trip 100%

[@keithmoore7988]

The kid's poem the teacher read is actually the lyrics to Pink Floyd's song Money

[@Max_Flashheart]

^ This

[@plagasvon2399]

Dude mvp, I watched this movie 10x over I never caught that

[@IggyStardust1967]

Roger Waters elaborated on the lyric about education: "I'm not anti-education. I'm anti BAD education." There is a big difference. Also, I was around for "corporal punishment"..... There's a difference between "discipline" and "abuse". That concept has been SO lost these days. I remember one time I was "acting up" in school (disrupting class), and got whacked across the knuckles with a ruler. I settled down... but it didn't quite end there. When I got home. there was a message waiting for my grandmother about WHY I got my knuckles cracked earlier that day. When she found out..... I got my ass TANNED right before dinner, so that I had to sit there in pain while eating. Guess what..... I didn't act up in class again. I learned that my actions had consequences that I didn't like. I never got my butt smacked by anyone if I didn't do something to deserve it. THAT is the difference between discipline and abuse.

"I feel like I'm watching a Movie,," Krizz, you can watch the whole thing, it IS a movie, I own it on Blu-Ray. The bassist, Roger Waters, made a movie out of the Pink Floyd Album, The Wall. The movies is also called "The Wall" and it explores, life, trauma, fame, love, rock and roll and isolation,. Great film.

[@jennhen2675]

I agree! It is awesome!

[@BradLeroy]

I grew up listening to this as a kid. I love Pink Floyd, one of the all time greatest rock bands in history and absolutely original.

[@arnodobler1096]

"The Wall" was a album and a movie. Our class teacher invited the whole class to the movies, at his expense, back then.

[@tnolddawg]

The Wall is one you have to do as an album or react to the Movie they did This was a theme album done during the period where groups like Pink Floyd, The Who, and Queen were doing "Rock Opera" albums (the Wall, Tommy, Bohemian Rhapsody) The Wall 🧱 spoke of the Barriers we put up in our minds and behavior to conform to society and how we must tear down those walls to find freedom and contentment

[@myowndrum286]

Ahhh! I love Pink Floyd. And the Dark Side of the Moon album will always be my go to. They were way before their time, very talented, and not easy to put into any one genre. I feel their music inside when I hear it. Almost 50 yrs now. Pink Floyd are a wonderful band to explore.

[@paulpenix8198]

That poem was lyrics to their song " Money" from their Dark side of the Moon album 1973.

[@cmiles97x38]

My favorite part of the video other than the poem being lyrics from the Pink Floyd's "Money", was that all the chaos was the imagination of the kid who the teacher made fun of and wacked with a ruler. Also the kids faces turning into masks represents taking away their individuality, turning them into another faceless brick in the wall.

[@walterfleury3840]

Great reaction, love it, keep them coming!

[@bretthemminger6133]

Bar none, this movie was the best musical i have ever seen: it is so deep on so many levels and in a very poetic way illustrates the pain one goes through when their heart is broken.

[@quintondees4501]

I saw Pink Floyd in the eighties, to this day, best concert I've ever been to

[@shaunasimpson7689]

Me too

[@sylvialopez5928]

I saw Pink Floyd the best fan I’ve ever seen so far up to this state no band has ever blown my mind like they have. You should check out their library. You will be amazed. It’s a trip.

[@jeremiahrose4681]

There's a reason Pink Floyd is considered legends and if not the best one of the best bands of all time (that will never change). In saying that I'm not a huge fan of theirs, however I can respect genius. Oh I done really like this song.

[@hellhound1389]

The video was meant to comment on how schools turn kids into thoughtless faceless zombies that are only ment to be meat for the grinder

[@rainerader1182]

Try Great Gig in the Sky your mind will be just blown. You feel it every minute of it

[@Cmireflect]

I was a freshman in high school when this came out. (This was back when smoking was even allowed at a designated area on campus!). One of the punkier kids locked and BARRICADED himself in the PA system room and BLASTED this song that could be heard in every classroom and well beyond the outside border of the school. It took police to get the kid out and turn to it off, but not before the song was played through almost twice!!!

[@shecaso]

Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands ever. I hope you react to more PF.

[@jennhen2675]

The movie is really worth watching and the music is fantastic!

[@RockinMamaT]

Oh Krizz you made it to a great classic band. I was lucky enough to see them live in Toronto in 88 and it was an experience for sure. Try Time from them. Great reaction and Peace out Krizz 🙏 ☮️ ✌️ BTW this is from The movie The Wall 😊

[@boroblueyes]

Lines from "Money". This is definitely a, watch from beginning to end album to get the concept.

[@danielandrews2635]

Would like to see you reaction to COMFORTABLY NUMB LIVE AT THE 1994 PULSE CONCERT I think you would really be impressed seeing how they sound live it will blow your mind great reactions as always keep up the great work will be waiting for next reaction

[@sherryandarthurpower9006]

best band ever

[@billyoliver4000]

You should sit down, strap in and watch the whole movie or listen to the whole album. The album is a concept album and tells a story from start to finish so listening to the songs individually may not give you the whole idea behind it.

[@WhitKnee-d1x]

Pink Floyd : Shine on you crazy Diamond

[@survivalrush]

both the movie and the album are classics

[@claranielsen3382]

I got to see Roger Waters in concert. It was awesome. The best way to listen to to Pink Floyd is kick back in bed, lights off and headphones on. This was about British culture at the time. It is a rock song lol. Pink Floyd is probably on of the greatest bands in rock history. They were ahead of their time. ❤

[@ernestpacheco8148]

Gotta watch the movie... Great message !

[@redzone77p]

PULSE CONCERT...ONE OF THE BEST.

[@saunderedheart]

There is a movie the whole album was designed as one giant story, and they made a movie with it, and the stage show version is amazing as well

[@erikaronska1096]

PLEASE consider a reacting to the entire album, then the movie! I was 10 when this came out and grew up listening to Pink Floyd

[@britandtati]

The whole movie is fantastic.

[@rainerader1182]

This whole album is worth a listen

[@cmiles97x38]

I was working in Selma Alabama, in a Middle School. I was working in the IT closest next to the Principal's office. This was in 2017. While in there I could hear her yelling at a student who from what she was saying was multiple repeat visitor to her office for bullying other kids and disobeying teachers. After a few minutes I hear a whack, whack, whack sound and knew from my childhood (I'm 56) that she was paddling the kid. Sure enough I see the the kid come out with tears in his eyes and she was telling him to straighten up or this will happen again. She looked over at me and said a little embarrassed "I hope you didn't hear that". I just smiled and said "hear what and I'm glad they have you as a principal because you will change lives here". Yep, they need more discipline with clearly stated and administered punishment for those kids that have none of it at home with broken families.

[@christinec4919]

You and the principal are both monsters. You don't put hands (or paddles) on children at school EVER! Just because you call it discipline doesn't mean it's not assault and battery.

[@tshelton5111]

We had a 7th/8th grade science teacher in the mid-80s that would give "hacks" to the smart-asses in class.😆 He used an 18" paddle riddled with holes, and with a handle. Kids had to bend over and grab their ankles, and he would swat them on the ass. It really pissed him off when the one getting the hack laughed in his face, which just led to a few more swats. He did this for years, and he was a legend and respected..... I don't recall a single parent ever causing a fuss over it. Times have certainly changed.....

[@laurawallis7093]

Definitely listen to all 3 parts of the song. Part 2 is the most popular part though.

[@danakillingsworth2954]

We got swats as well. You should listen to the whole thing, it's a story told from beginning to end. The "wall" they talk about comes down in the end. There was "something else about to happen". You only listened to one song in the middle of a full length story. I bought The Wall when I was in the 10th grade in 1980, and partied along the river with friends, starting it at the beginning, and playing it through. Great times. Darkside of the Moon is worth a listen as well.

[@simontemplar3359]

As a whole, this album is a masterpiece. For ultimate fun, check out the movie by the same name. They made a movie out of this and it is still one of the most powerful things I've ever seen. Awesome reaction, and I hope you and your family have an amazing Christmas!

[@paranoiaaa4126]

We used to get high and watch this movie every Saturday afternoon when we were teenagers. Great movie if you havent seen it! ❤

[@kathbeech]

Would love your take on time by Pink Floyd, I think it has the best lyrics ever written

[@arnodobler1096]

The kids poem is from their song "Money"

[@kierstenridgway4634]

This is a rock song. I was threatened with swats!! My mom said no! They found Zig Zags in my purse, that they searched. I wasn't a "bad kid." ❤️✌️

[@dionnedevillierssmith9582]

Hi, Mr Kaliko, love your channel! Here is something you might find interesting: this song (and the whole album) was banned in South Africa, because a few years before it was released, schoolchildren in Soweto took to the streets to protest not being allowed to be taught in their native languages. It was a horrible bloodbath, and was known as the Soweto Uprising (June 16th, 1976). The Apartheid government banned the album because they were afraid more kids would be inspired to rise up. Of course, we all had the album, but the irony of a song about censorship (amongst other things) being itself censored is not lost on me. If you’re still reading this, thank you, and May I tell you about some amazing South African musicians that I would love you to react to - starting with Johnny Clegg and Juluka, look for the live version of Impi. ❤

[@abangbangpow]

Those were the lyrics to the song "Money". The song wasn't written yet.

[@TheAlmaward]

This song in particular is an indictment of the British education system of the 50s-70s. But this is just a small part of the larger movie, The Wall. The movie is the fictional story of a rock star named Pink Floyd (played by Bob Geldof, a rock star in his own right, later knighted for his work in African famine relief). Pink has severe psychological damage, and has built up a mental wall to protect himself. His education is just one brick in the wall. He ends up committing suicide as a result of all the damaging experiences he has had. For most of the movie, we see Pink in a hotel room, having flashbacks to various parts of his life, as people come and go, trying to get him motivated to play his gig that night. Even now, each person is more interested in making sure he plays, and that they benefit from it, than in Pink's best interests, and thus each visitor is also an additional brick that adds to the wall. By showtime, the wall is complete, and there's no turning back, so Pink ends his life, seeing no way to break through it. It's an incredibly sad story; the music is on point at every stage of the film, and Geldof does a great acting job. You should watch/react to the whole movie.

[@thedominator87]

now you are commited to doing all 3 as this is part 2 i believe :P its a trilogy song as it follows the movie the wall, the album is written around also comfortably numb the pulse 1994 version is chef's kiss

[@mikeadams2677]

I know it's a completely different song, but when you mentioned high school dance the song, High School Dance by the Sylvyers popped in my head. 🤨😆

[@jeremiahrose4681]

Need to see the movie.

[@mattjohnson7316]

Pink floyd the wall is a movie u have to watch

[@seansersmylie]

In the 70's and 80's kids in the UK and Ireland were battered. I regularly got the belt, beaten with shoes, fire poker etc. There's a line and at that time it was crossed.

[@seansersmylie]

Also, you are watching a movie. The Wall directed by Alan Parker.

[@MusicLover-dt7ic]

I had a teacher in about 3rd grade that hit my hands with a ruler because my foot was out in the isle...some back then were something else...guess that why i grew up to talk back when in high school one called our table scum of the earth, i got up and said f you and spent 3 days in inschool suspension, gladly, but her ass got canned not long after. we blasted this song in school.

[@rainerader1182]

Can’t tell you how many paintings I painted to this album and dark side of the moon

[@jimsavely1104]

Mr. Jackson made me grab my ankles. His paddle had holes in it for extra velocity. Repeat from dad when he got home. I never got in trouble in school again. 1970's

[@michaeltaylor8835]

Epic

[@boroblueyes]

Love it man.

[@kellypickle]

Need the cans for Pink Floyd, dude

[@johnblackwell3232]

In my schooling in the late 60s and early 70s in the UK it certainly wasn't just the 'bad' kids who got physical punishment. You just needed to be late a few times or forget to bring some kit or homework.

[@James-c8s9z]

GILMORES LEAD IS ONE OF THE BEST!!

[@linkloudenback8359]

This is the movie version of the song the regular radio version is edited differently and is better sounding. This was taken from the movie and used as the music video. So it’s editing is different than the studio’s version for the album and radio.

[@dougshield7622]

"we dont need no thought control..."

[@victoriajaneke2350]

Ohhh this song reminds me of a song called Little Boxes....

[@davidgross990]

I know that song and you must be old. littler boxes all the same.

[@victoriajaneke2350]

@davidgross990 I'm only 62. Not that! Old....lol. I've actually painted a triptych with that song in mind.

[@andy60234]

This is from the movie The Wall.

[@michaelwebster8389]

There was a movie - the wall. Interesting, but a little depressing for me - at least when I saw it as a teenager. Probably should watch it again.

[@whitecompany18]

In England we still got the cane into the early 80s, after the cane was banned we still got hit with books (generally the bible) or the board rubber (block of wood with a felt scrubber) thrown at you across the classroom. Corporal punishment only taught me to be violent towards someone who's winning the argument or just pissing you off.

[@Max_Flashheart]

The song is a critique of the education system and the indoctrination of students into a rigid, conformist way of thinking. The song's message is that schools are oppressive systems that dehumanize students and force them to conform to a predefined path of learning vs Basic education for life and critical thinking. Make good workers that don't question and conform.

[@terryconnelly484]

Sit back With your favorite drink and smoke on an evening by yourself.Or with someone cool to watch Pink Floyd the wall.It's amazing.Mushrooms are good as well! A lot of good animation for that state of mind!

[@hellhound1389]

In my highschool we all knew the lyrics of this song

[@richardpate4732]

I got swats a lot in grade school! Guess I was one of them "bad kids"! 😂😂😂

[@andreaschmall5560]

Scottish accent is way nicer than most, IMO. And French of course.

[@brookehornback1896]

HA!indeed these kiddos do!We called it going to the principles office to get a padding .

[@diannadavis1362]

The education system squelches children's creativity , crushes your spirit and individualism , and it forces conformity . The machine represents that showing how it chews them up and spits them out as faceless drones devoid of hope for achieving their dreams , in favor of falling into line and becoming a cog in the machine.

[@MarcEdmunds-n4g]

Roger waters was born in 1943, this based on his experience in british schools

[@wisconsinman3590]

I was in the Army first time I watched this in 1986. Sober, stupid movie. Got drunk, still stupid. Did a hit of Acid, made perfect sense and watch it often and still get it, no acid since 87. haha

[@michaeltaylor8835]

Education back in the 60s

[@michaeltaylor8835]

The kid was writing lines from Money

[@candicelitrenta8890]

This was an English Rock band and in 1980 behavior was very different. It was known to spank or slap a child was considered normal type of punishment. I know you cannot do that nowadays, but I will tell you, children were a lot more respectful because of it. But not down shaming about it. That should never be done

[@viviennerose6858]

Yes, back in the day teachers Were allowed to punish children, either by hand, ruler or cane.

[@kellypickle]

Pink Floyd is not rock. Pink Floyd is everything. And then it’s other things you didn’t even know existed … I wish everyone could have the same experiences that we had when all we had were radios and albums. That’s how we heard this music. You hear it on the radio then your brother gets the album and then when he’s not home, you play his record and listen to it on headphones as loud as possible.

[@davidgross990]

I always considered Pink Floyd background music to life. Every note seems to fit and be right.

[@victoriajaneke2350]

Radio Chaos by Roger Waters addresses the topic of the Vietnam War. From song 1 to the last tells an illuminating story. I would recommend a listen. Ps: I just couldn't get a thorough bite on song no 1.

[@denisemiles1787]

We did trash our classroom. When the riots started in Detroit.

[@klb9142]

👍🏾

[@RussellStClair-cy1vu]

It is a movie

[@joannaray5846]

Sad thing: I'm from Kentucky, and we still have corporal punishment in the schools. Yes, the teachers can still "whoop" your child. When my kids were young, I only had one teacher even threaten to touch my child. Let's just say after our "come to Jesus" meeting, they were nothing but polite to my son afterwards. I'm old now, and my grandkids are in school. Let's just say this ole Nanna is just waiting for the day when a teacher or principal tries that on one of mine, and they'll see how fast a lawsuit can be filed.

[@katiegwynn4495]

Such a beautiful and awful piece of work. When you say these kids need more discipline, did you notice that they were walking a plank and falling into a meat grinder right before they started trashing the place? LoL. In general though yeah, kids-especially today, need to get set straight!

[@JamesBrendon-h4r]

Yeah we all wanted to do this. We were absolutely against indoctrination, hence the rise of our rock music. I was always disappointed it was just a " day dream." Lol.

[@MatthewPeavy1]

If you want to freak out, Check out Jake Khon "Frost Bite" or "Dreams" Black Pegasus completely freaked out about this 16 year old

[@jeremiahrose4681]

Yep, I went to the principal office for fighting once (only), behind closed doors he took out his paddle and....well nothing I was let go. I had a clean track record, and I think he thought I fought for a just cause. Who knows.....I had a temper back then. Only got in two fights in school (both in jr high). One time I probably deserved the paddle the other time I did the school a fvor per se...the teen was busted for drugs at a school event weeks later. Life is odd for sure.

[@itsakittyting]

Did you grasp the concept? Kids are made to be another brick in the wall instead of being their special unique self

[@tomatolady11]

In my day it was the nuns that were liberal with the ruler smacks.

[@Raven5150]

This is part 2 there are 3 parts to another brick in the wall

[@kellypickle]

Yeah, I have a hard time with anybody just listening to this song. Pink Floyd by themselves are amazing but you’re missing so much because you don’t have context. We got listened to the whole album or watch the whole movie and listen to the whole album or really just listen to the whole album. the whole album all at once.

[@LinasBlinass]

You were watching a movie.

[@charliesmith4702]

Gen X kids 😂😂

[@kellypickle]

The sound effects in the video kind of get in the way of the song you need to listen to the studio version of the song to really appreciate the actual song. Sorry, I know everybody’s got a lot of opinions about Pink Floyd.
