{She's Back!} First Time Hearing Taylor Swift - Anti-Hero (Reaction)

[@theeemaven]

Kobe's interview where he talks about Taylor...no one has ever described her better in terms of her talent & polarity. RIP Mamba & sweet baby girl.

[@theeemaven]

P.s. I'm just beginning this video. So not saying yall haven't done it better lol but it just randomly came to me.. Kobe's words...& felt compelled to say it lol

[@ThePeteSandoval]

As someone who was considered obese and lost weight I struggle more with weight now than I did before. Those that got her to change the video aren’t true fans otherwise they’d see that she was opening up about her struggles with weight and they just 💩all over her feelings. I guess some people just can’t seem to understand empathy.

[@Roblockdn]

I heard something about this. It’s when she was on the scale, right? I don’t get the uproar either. It was about her own personal experience and I don’t see it as dangerous at all. Thank you for sharing your story. - kloquewerk

[@Alibumstead]

Exactly. Everyone has to make everything about themselves. Literally they should have LISTENED to the song. The problem is THEMSELVES. The point of the song was staring them in their face and they still missed it. Smh

[@mathies3598]

​@@Alibumstead atleast she still got the point across pretty effectively this way, but I agree, it wasn't fatshaming at all, it was just social commentary on the expectations society puts on women and how that lead to her eating disorder

[@richlisola1]

It speaks to her lack of convictions that she would rather appease middling fans with zero willpower or introspection than to stand by her art.

[@tommccan1866]

Yeah this video is for an “expert level Swiftie”. I won’t bore you with all of the details. this was a great reaction!

[@elisamaer9914]

This is about depression, self loathing , weight gain worries, betrayal, self doubts, etc, etc.. Thec3 characters at the funeral might be a referring to Kim, Kanye and Scott Borchetta. She wrote, and directed this too, she is brilliant!

[@Roblockdn]

Interesting take on it, for sure. We’re definitely gonna be reacting to more of her album! - kloquewerk

[@jnny7182]

Lol

[@bkirstie]

@@Roblockdn her horrible daughter in law is named KIMber 😉 And Taylor said it herself this is a video about her insecurities

[@mathies3598]

I get how one of them could be a parallel to scott borchetta because in the My tears ricochet video she sang about him wearing the jewelery that she gave him as he buried her. But i dont think kim and kanye make sense, they were never people she really trusted any of her assets to. I'm not sure if these characters represent anyone specific. I think it's just the general fear of people only wanting to be associated with you for your wealth. And you being a cause of THEIR fight

[@bobbyrw1398]

Thanks for giving her a chance to impress you. She'll be releasing new MVs from the album starting this week. Hope you'll give them a chance too.

[@lostcontact601]

These master piece just like 80's i like to travel back from the past!! Nostalgia

[@sosfof1164]

Great reaction guys

[@Roblockdn]

Thank you

[@megandelynn6114]

Since you guys said you talk a lot about self awareness & mental health, I'd love to see your reaction to "This is Me Trying"(about mental health & addiction-i recommend the version from the Long Pond Studio Sessions with the explanation of the song by Taylor before the performance) from Tays Folklore album & "Forever Winter" (about people in her life struggling with mental illness & suicidal ideation & specifically a friend she lost to suicide). Also, Ronan is an amazing song she wrote from someone else's perspective(a true story). I think you'd really appreciate the depth of her lyricism with these! Thanks for the reaction

[@lbeast2855]

Maybe also Soon you’ll get better, I mean I can’t even listen to the song because it’s too sad

[@megandelynn6114]

@@lbeast2855 I feel you! That songs gets me every time! Especially the live version she did for the pandemic, even though she said she'd never be able to do it live since its about her Mom! You could feel how hard it was for her!

[@lbeast2855]

@@megandelynn6114 ooh, I never listened to the live version, I’ll have to do that next time I listen to that song

[@megandelynn6114]

@@lbeast2855 You should! There is a video of it here on YT from the pandemic concert & it's just her on her piano at home! You'll definitely be in tears!

[@Jesus_is_savior]

Loved your reaction!

[@Roblockdn]

Thank you so much

[@sweetjeeebus]

Very honest and real reaction, I like you guys! Would love to see you react to more of Taylor’s music! 😎

[@Roblockdn]

Thank you so much! Your words means a lot. We will definitely be doing more from Taylor! - kloquewerk

[@gjh9299]

what the media has said about her, calling her fat when she obviously isnt

[@marzeii]

You should listen to: - All too well (10 minute version) - Tolerate it - Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve - Soon you’ll get better - Nothing New - Vigilante shit - Exile - Mad woman - Peace - Honestly all of the Reputation album - The last time - Marjorie - Last kiss - Haunted - Ronan (if you dare) These are some of my favorites, but she has made so many amazing songs and her songwriting is just magnificent.

[@aparnay6391]

I really wanna add 'Tis the damn season' and 'Ivy' to your list

[@zela7933]

Taylor here is talking about her insecurities not all of them are nearly true and her inner thoughts or alter ego which is represented by the other evil taylor in the video

[@user-xz7zl1zy4h]

Lol I’ve never noticed the broccoli. Nice reaction.

[@Roblockdn]

Lol yeah it threw me off too but appreciate the love and support…. Rob 🔒

[@williamb8180]

you finally got the jest of the song, excellent, also if you notice the Album is removed from past..and Taylor is reaching a new height and level..

[@harliikhate]

ON POINT!

[@SamanthaScreem]

Check out her video for Bad Blood featuring Kendrick Lamar or End Game featuring Future

[@jasonsol1719]

I think she refers to staring at the sun. Being on stage with the lights towards her. I may be wrong. But I think that's from a Pink Floyd song

[@me7058]

THE WAY YOU GUYS BROKE IT DOWN AND ACTUALLY DEEPED THE MESSAGE🤌🏽🔥🤝 TRUE LOVERS OF ART/MUSIC

[@Roblockdn]

Thank you so much! We try to be as thorough as we can and have a conversation out loud with each other and tell our perspectives. We appreciate you. - kloquewerk

🙌🏾

[@chriso7837]

That was a good reaction, thank you for reacting to her . You should’ve put first time hearing Taylor Swift” in your title I bet you would’ve got a lot more views. should react to “blank space” or “shake it off” by Taylor Swift.

[@Roblockdn]

I was thinking about putting that in the title. We’re still working on the best ways to navigate titles. Thanks for the suggestions! - kloquewerk

[@richardh776]

Oh my God, seems like at the start you didn't want to watch the video. Didn't even know the name of the new album.

[@Roblockdn]

Naw definitely not the case had a brain fart early in the morning and just completely blanked out. It happens sometimes when we record that early. Thanks for your comment though…. Rob 🔒

[@matejburic1388]

Why would they know about the name of the new Taylor Swift album, they are not her audience, they kept an open mind and loved the song. I dont see the problem 😂

[@alwaysamused979]

I found it endearing that they weren't enthused about it to start, but it clearly grew on them. The power of Taylor prevailed...lol.

[@richlisola1]

Holding herself accountable or reveling in her flaws? Enjoying her narcissism.

[@kelleycheek5142]

Men can't understand this song

[@Roblockdn]

We understood it perfectly fine. Did you watch the whole video and hear our commentary? - kloquewerk

[@kelleycheek5142]

Yes. Have you been a woman for a day? You can't understand

[@Roblockdn]

Believe it or not, we can understand something without having experienced it firsthand. I understand the pain someone feels from losing a child even though I’ve never lost one. Understanding does not equal experiencing it. Period. - kloquewerk

[@jnny7182]

It’s hard to watch it’s so bad. Just speaking my opinion as this album is trash

[@Roblockdn]

You’re definitely entitled to your opinion - kloquewerk

[@mh0mz]

This song is just okay. Overrated

[@Roblockdn]

Interesting but why do you feel like it’s overrated?….. Rob 🔒

[@chriso7837]

Because he’s a hater, Taylor Swift‘s newest album (midnights) broke all sorts of records. and some people just don’t want to see it!

[@mh0mz]

@@Roblockdn she's a puppet for the industry. So her songs revolve around the same sound, same lyrical style, and whatever fits the mainstream popularity at this point. It's just not for me but I understand why others may appreciate it.

[@pineappso9945]

@@mh0mz I disagree. Throughout her discography she experiments with different sounds and genres, if you ever really analyzed or listened to her albums. When "Reputation" came out, it was different from her usual pop in "1989" (which further transitioned from her original genre of country) - people hated it at the time but it quickly became a beloved album that encompasses a lot of themes and versatility. Her creativity and authenticity shine through her songwriting/lyricism and the reason why she's still relevant after all these years AND Artist of the Decade is because she continues to push, progress and experiment. Yes, her marketing team is great, but she also knows how to touch her fans' hearts, and those who weren't even her fans to begin with, with her music.

[@bkirstie]
