Reacting to "E" by Ecco2k

[@NOAH-oq3xb]

Seeing this in the feed made me fall to my knees in Walgreens

[@colemancv]

Bob, I would recommend Crest, the collab album between Bladee and Ecco2k. They really bring out the best in each other

[@leninhaze]

💯

[@COOMER9]

definitely listen to crest, that album has me kicking my feet and twirling my hair fr

facts

[@BREATHER_]

I had no idea Yves Tumor produced AAA Powerline. I think you would really like their solo music. Yves Tumor’s “Praise a Lord Who Chews” was one of my favorite albums of last year. Highly recommended. Also “Heaven to a Tortured Mind” is incredible Edit: Yves’s music is nothing like drain gangs music. It’s more punk influenced with elements of indie & shoegaze put together in a really unique & psychedelic/ethereal way. They also had a lot to do with the production for Yachty’s “Let’s Start Here”

[@Amphibian_006]

Same. Love the last 2 yves albums

[@runaway_hideout]

Heaven to a tortured mind is my favorite

[@charmofknlypi]

Wow completely did not expect for bob to bless us like this

[@iy2147]

i did a double take bro the bob dg days are coming....

[@x5p_]

The drug addiction thing is definitely not the only theme throughout. Ecco talking about this built-in insecurity he's been left with as a result of growing up somewhere where he's the only person who looks the way he does is really interesting to me (Peroxide, Security, Blue Eyes most notably). Its pretty heartbreaking honestly, and a perspective i'm not sure i've ever heard on an album. For such a stripped back project, there truly are layers here. I've played this album countless times and still don't think i've got it all. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@maerek]

yves tumor, who produced the song AAA powerline, creates some amazing rock music and i HIGHLY recommend listening to their solo work on your own time

[@vespertine8555]

10:13 the way Bob's laugh was synced with Yung Gud's production made me floating

i love the way bob articulates his thoughts, like bro can paint the picture easily

[@dmanwalking_]

I'd strongly recommend Exeter if you're into the trippy "draing gang sound" it's an album from bladee, but has some ecco2k features on it

[@schokostrolch11]

You should definitely react to some Yves Tumor, their material is great as well

[@BEASTYMUZIK]

bob reacting to yves tumor would be transcendental, i hope his discord gets him hip

You should listen to Foreign Exchange by Rx Papi and Gud, the guy who produced a lot here. It’s short but it’s like experimental gangster rap it’s good asf

[@dived4thepill968]

I think doing trash island next would be great that way you can hear all members of drain gang together, productions great.

[@sxth2915]

Trash Island is great

[@cenjal1665]

You definitely have to check out Yves Tumor, the producer for AAA Powerline. Their albums are insane

[@americanskylines2789]

E actually does have a somewhat happy ending, on the CD version there is a bonus track called “life after life”, it’s the most beautiful track from the album.

[@SadBnnuy]

It's sad that wasn't included on the reaction. It's what made me like the album

[@nvism]

I really recommend Yung Lean and Bladees project “Pyskos”

[@waltermalone8470]

Need a Warlord and Stranger reaction too

[@adam-ns1he]

snooze fest

[@ViTa09]

Omg I didn't expect you to listen to drain gang stuff ( I haven't finished watching, but I hope you like it). Edit: Their stuff was pretty hard for me to get into at first too, however E and Crest are really what got me to relisten through DG projects and appreciate more of what they are going for).

[@DropThatBass13]

Been waiting for this for so long this is such a beautiful and vulnerable ambient album. next stop is his collaborator Yves Tumor who came from the european ambient scenes and transitioned in to making full on glam rock records. You'll love his 2019 record Heaven to a Tortured Mind

[@x5p_]

Yves' latest album was one of my favorites of last year as well, phenomenal artist

[@BREATHER_]

Yves’s last 2 albums have been some of the best modern rock music being made rn imo. So unique

[@straightup6741]

U ARE FINALLY DRAINED, i hope u do more album about drain gang member bobobbob

[@boinqity4621]

if you like this and not icedancer crest would be great because it has bladee but most of the songs have the same vibes as this project, maybe a bit happier

Ecco2k is the best member of DG

[@joshybruh9099]

You should totally react to crest by bladee and Ecco2k if you like this! It’s soft and sweet, it feels like you’re in a magic fairy world and it’s nice and short too. I think it’s the best work either of them have put out by far.

[@yandhi4507]

CREST PLEASE YOU NEED TO SEE BLADEE AT HIS PEAK AS A WRITER

[@henry3376]

My favourite album ever. This is such a gentle and personal album, I literally love Ecco so much

[@bobbycorona_]

one of my favorite albums ever and im a metal head

[@benz.]

Love this album and loved this reaction. Thank you, Bob!

[@mitch-ur1ip]

I think it would be cool for you to listen to Stranger by Yung Lean. Not necessarily drain gang but practically is, and I think you'd like it

[@quinten2529]

Probably not

[@tob7759]

Starz might be a more accessible Lean album.

[@gatds346]

mentioning that you like ambient music made me wonder, have you ever/do you listen to DnB? breakcore? I'm a huge fan of ambient music myself and I've noticed I enjoy listening to artists like sewerslvt in a similar way. That sort of get lost in the sound and think about nothing else sort of music. I think "Drowning in the Sewer" is a good starting point for it. Also! I think you would LOVE Nujabes if you haven't listened to him already, one of the best producers of all time, a pioneer of the jazz hiphop fusion, and in my opinion some of the most beautiful music too. "Metaphorical Music" is a good point to start listening to Nujabes, and also an absolute classic and must listen for any hiphop head

[@radchum]

MASSIVE DAY FOR DRAINERS

[@Pokui]

You need to do Crest

[@tsunamipapi1343]

LET’S FUCKING GO

[@NathanIThink]

Hey Bob, I’ve been a fan of your channel for a while, and you never fail to entertain me with your reactions. I don’t watch every video, but I do watch all the ones of albums I know, and occasionally I pop in for albums I’ve never heard of (like this one). I don’t know what is it, but your content is always just wholesome to watch, keep it up! There is one album that I’ve always wanted you to react to but I know you’ll never even hear of it if I don’t tell you specifically. It’s an extremely interesting album. It’s called ‘Verità Supposte’ by Caparezza, released January 1st, 2003. It’s an italian hip hop album, entirely sung in Italian, with some of the most interesting beats I’ve heard on a hip hop project, never heard anything like it. I don’t even know if you’ll see this, but it would absolutely make my day if you reacted to it. If you do cover it, I would owe you a big thanks as not only would it introduce you to Caparezza’s amazing music, but everyone else who watches you. Again, love your content and I always will!

[@Rob93WLR]

OMG HE ACTUALLY REACT TO ECCO???

[@christeen-jq6pb]

I think you have to react to the song “life after life” by ecco, in a way it was the actual outro for E, it was only on the physical copy of the vinyl/disc and it was the last song, and it ending the album with that song rather than blue eyes changes the perspective of the journey of the album, when it ends with blue eyes it’s very harsh there doesn’t really seem to be hope it’s all aggression, but life after life is more positive, it’s showing that there’s a part of him, even if it’s a small part, that feels hope snd feels like things can change, when u said “sometimes there is no resolution sometimes the pain continues” after listening to blue eyes it’s how the album seems to end but there’s more to it, life after life shows that there is the possibility of a resolution even if it’s only a part of him that feels that way. I loved this reaction and ur analysis on it, E might be one of my favourite albums of all time it’s so multifaceted and just beautiful

[@jwustrau420]

You should really do Crest

[@EldenBubba]

You absolutely should listen to Crest. If you do another Bladee solo project in the future, try Exeter since you seem to enjoy Gud's production. Icedancer is not a very good introduction to Bladee's music imo even though it's one of my favorites of his.
