love this dudes reactions, so genuine/real. always find myself coming back to his channel when i find an album i love.

For "New Black City" it samples Vince Staple's song "Señorita". That chorus from Future is on it. I like that it features Vince too. Love his music as well. Him, Tyler, Q, Kendrick, all from LA and incredible. So many more. All TDE, most of OF. Earl especially. Amazing.

[@Levi_OP]

The annotation about his upbringing reminded me that you havent listened to his devon hendryx music! I'd really like if you listened to the ghost pop tape. It provides a look into another time in his life and gives context for a lot of the lyrics in his newer music

[@jasfx7241]

Since i saw that Rodeo Album by Travis Scott reaction which i even discovered your channel Bob i knew you gonna get big and there we are, your channel is my favourite the way you analyze the music is just too good and the way you breakdown the lyrics and give ideas of what the artist intended to portray it just makes sense and makes me go “oh wow i would never think of it that way” Truly the most underrated channel out here ❤️🔥

My fav Peggy album (not heard Cornballs, Ben Carson) and I can easily say this is one of my fav albums of all time, this is the first album of his that fully clicked with me and I adore it to the fullest, maybe because of the production, the fusion of rock and hip-hop works so well here or maybe we get more meat on the content matter this time around from Peggy, the second half of the album has introspection, vulnerability. It all mashes so well for me!

[@samthedamnlamb]

i think cornballs might be peggys favorite, he said the third album was sick no disease on either on or off the drugs. i would definitely give it a listen

[@PapiGordo5360]

You should check out cornballs for sure, but I do think that Jpegmafias older album are heavy on flexing experimentation, but his strength as a song writer wasn't quite there yet, or at least not as good as it would go on to be.

[@LVP_The_Dude]

really think you're onto something at 1:42:00 since he has a song as Devon Hendryx called, I ♥You Hip-Hop But I Cant Be Your Girlfriend. really good catch on the meaning, but we could all be wrong as he just talkin bout his homegirls 🤷‍♂ Edit: he's also said that he's bored with Hip-Hop so he could 100% be saying that he's just catching the hip-hop sound in his music, more than he listens to it himself. Its obvious through all of the Rock/Metal references and sounds in this album that he likes that kind of music. we can also see though covers and though his earlier work, and him even saying himself that he likes Pop music. so i think he definitely could be talking about his relationship to the genre.

[@00m4ri4]

just so you know, jane remover is supporting peggy on his tour!! it kind of surprised me because theyre very different, but she is great too and her last album, census designated, was my fav album last year. the peggy cosign is big for her bc shes not a very big artist outside of like the music nerd community, but it would be cool if u could check her out!!

[@donnie1725]

When talking at the end there with 'who would replace him for the number one spot'. I would be really curious to see your reaction to Ghais Guevara. He's an underground rapper, but also kinda of Peggy's school of production-wise. But interestingly, he's considered better lyricist and generally more meaningful writer. His first album 'BlackBolshevic' is only 22 minutes, so would make a great introduction. His second 'There will be no Super Slave' is 45 minutes, and while seen as a bit less wild, also considered more cohesive. It's also my favourite I've heard from him. Both would be great!

[@andrejnikolchenko2405]

1:46:32 I don't want to speculate about peggy's life, but as someone who lived in a broken home and never got the care to grow up, this line resonated a lot. People often assume that you're an adult, and to survive you had to grow a lot in certain aspects, but behind all that facade it's just a scared kid in a childlocked car, his past preventing him from actual love, actual heart, actual care

[@AlexHerlan]

I noticed the difference in "don't rely on other men" too. The album version definitely gets a little more epic. Jealous to hear the story you got a shout out for your reaction to veteran (new to your channel 👋). I wouldn't have handled that gracefully either lol. Peggy seems like someone I woulda been friends with in highschool, an outsider but entirely comfortable there. His whole approach to music creation is very in line with mine and you connecting him to Aphex Twin is apt. These are people who definitely make music for the joy of it and nothing else. It's weird how you can tell when someone does something out of passion, and it could be nails on a chalk board, and still sound good and make sense when that element of authenticity and passion is present. To clear something up for you, Google "code switching". When he says "I feel corny unless I'm on code" he's saying he feels corny unless he's speaking like how other black people speak to each other. Code switching is when a black person changes how they speak normally around other black people, to fit in with the larger society/white people. Don't worry I'm unforgivably white too. I love how you wanted this metal heavy album, and it has plenty of that, but then you are totally in love with how the album mellowed out at the end and was perfect for what it needed to be. I agree entirely.

Right next to STH with Danny. Peggy only gets better with time just like Danny. Wow. Two artists to definitely stayed tuned to. And Peggy helped on some Vultures 2 stuff from Kanye no? He dropped. Not so good, let's be honest, but still I heard Peggy's drums on some parts.

i love the interpretation of "it's not that i dont love my bitch but i don't love these side hoes neither" as a metaphor for his thoughts on hip-hop. I'd say its likely as he made a whole song in 2012 called "I ❤You Hip Hop But I Don't Wanna Be Your Girlfriend" which is basically the same idea
