21 never fails to blow away my low expectations that I set for him 5 years ago lol. He’s absolutely killing every feature he does.

[@Henrysmith537]

Same lmao

[@crispythablack5837]

Honestly, I never expected 21 Savage to have this level of longevity and I'm glad he is still in the game thriving. I hope he can maintain his doing well and continue on this path. Watching him come up was interesting, and now he has nowhere to go but up if he stays out of trouble unlike most of these rappers.

[@ixnexus]

The vibes Savage Mode 2 brings is unreal. Every song is so dark and gloomy, Metro and 21 went absolute crazy.

[@ricardoediza2690]

21 Savage is in my opinion the most unique evolution of any rapper in the SoundCloud age, from being single like a Pringle to being the best part of Honestly, Mediocre

[@mentalfortitude5718]

Agree with you on the first half, I have no idea what you’re talking about in the second half lol

@@mentalfortitude5718 his verse on Jimmy Cooks Honestly, Nevermind

[@soulmoney119]

Enough with the Honestly Nevermind hate. It’s so annoying when an artist releases an album that’s a return to form for them that gets shit on by everybody. It happened with Eminem’s Kamikaze, now it’s happening with this album. Stop being like this

[@bigultra]

@@soulmoney119 Your favourite artist gave us instrumentals as an album!

[@sagarkathuria8194]

@@bigultra He didn't, unfortunately. The album would've been better if it WAS just instrumentals.

[@nutella1343]

I disagree i am> i was will be hallmarked as a classic in the next 5 years mark my words. Its shockingly coherent with plently of themes to take from.

[@nutella1343]

Excellent video as always by far one of the best ones ive seen about him

[@rogue9230]

nah I think without warning which I think is his best project will be a classic this year actually

[@lucasvslife]

I've seen it mentioned a couple times already on twitter

[@mako44444]

Ngl to this day that is one of my favorite albums ever dropped

[@thatsmaney8943]

I agree. Without warning too

[@rickyrichreacts9667]

The production on Without Warning is some of the best I’ve heard in the last 10 years. That’s the album that changed my mind when it came to this new type of music

[@kenilmonpara6320]

Same brother , I started getting trap music because of without warning

[@yoavschmidt7082]

Yalls have some of the best video production on youtube, love the videos keep em coming

[@akashpathak6505]

When i first heard him i never thought he would have such longevity

[@ryanmoore4130]

Whether 21 will be remembered for a classic album he'll be an inspiration for the next generation, always improving, taking every feature seriously, staying independent. Always one of my favorites and I'm so glad to have grown up with his music

[@ztay08]

Fascinating to see the videos go from Understanding Artists to the Incedible Story of Artists. Can't wait for a J. Cole video.

[@parker.alan.hawkins]

I remember in 2014 and 2015 hearing him and not thinking much, wasnt my genre. Just in the past year or two I've been exposed to his newer stuff and I looked back on his progress and I was blown away. This is really proof that you need to focus more on an artists drive and determination to succeed than their skill necessarily. You could have all the talent in the world but without motivation you're going nowhere. 21 Savage is proof that if you keep at it, what might be a niche or not widely accepted art may grow into something huge. Collaboration is key in this world. Money becomes obsolete at a certain level and you need resources/people more than anything. 21 Savage is a genius. Hes gained more than respect from me. Def going to watch more interviews and learn from him for the business I'm forming currently.

[@xikaya1]

21’s been my favorite rapper since middle school, watching him grow into the artist he is today is inspiring

[@erengabyreigns8413]

Tbh when I first seen his videos, I was terrified, until my daughter was watching the vlad interviews and the music video reaction, I fell in love with this young man his story was so inspiring and he as an artist is so unique and talented....

[@barry4649]

21 will start building that classic catalogue you talked about very soon, he’s one of the best rappers around right now

[@XxRedMambaxx21]

I started getting into new rap seriously once I graduated in 2016 and 21 was the first artist I got put onto. My listening evolved with his style changes and he's honestly helped get me into so many more artists that I wouldn't have normally listened to, imo ISSA Goat 🤷

[@davidmunoz1683]

Dude ISSA album is amazing wtf, I can listen to it front to back No skips

[@demetriusmiddleton1246]

Same, I don't know what he is talking about

[@xXOr30Xx]

Issa Album Issa classic. Idk wtf he saying fr

[@hunterdowdrick5577]

Fire video bro, your channel is more underrated than 21 is. Couldn't agree more about Without Warning, one of my favorite trap albums of al time. Just can't get enough of those crazy metro beats and dark rapping. Shoutout Offset too for brining the same energy to most tracks.

[@drewxx3931]

21 isn't underrated wtf u talkin bout

[@metalmouth5581]

That whole class of XXL freshman is absolutely master class. I was all boomer about it at first. Thought it was the “end of hip hop” , such a cringe take. All amazing artists.

[@syre_4714]

That Nebula class actually ended up being Really good. Do you have another one coming out soon?

[@BMDubsKid]

I appreciate you loving Without Warning as much as I do, hands down the best 21 project and one of my favorite rap collab albums of all time (Fight me)

[@geescott5627]

Without Warning ⚠️ my favourite album

[@_createusernamelater_6041]

These are some of my favourite videos on KZbin as it gives you a really deep insight to some of my favourite rappers or topics. I either learn something about a rapper i regularly listen too or learn about a musician I’m fairly new to

[@commandohazelnuts]

When I learned that 21 owned all his masters I began to appreciate him as human more. I'm not the biggest fan of his music, but I am a fan of his career. I think he's talented, funny, and pretty smart as far as career is concerned.

[@BabyRogerCDR]

Such a great video about my favourite artist, good job Volk!

[@tronfv]

this is one of the most well produced documentsries i’ve seen ur channel is great

[@johnwayne6654]

Without Warning is still overlooked and it’s a crime. PHENOMENAL ALBUM. People were ranking Super Slimey over it that year which is a joke. Without Warning is my favorite album that Metro Boomin produced and the production speaks for itself. The only time I like Metro more than Wothout Warning is on Days Before

[@Chevaux804]

Great work on this video. Love the way your mind works.

[@nasariyasori]

Savage Mode 2 is like listening in a movie lol

[@bobbeta]

Morgan Freemans narrations with the smoothest transitions make it sound so unique. Such a good album

[@garrylong2993]

Bro savage mode 2 is as good if not better than savage mode original, change my mind

[@brendensolis5349]

i've been pateintly waitng for this... so glad this is here. cannot wait to rewatch this and show to friends.

[@Volksgeist]

Enjoy!

[@Nielsen700]

Without Warning got an 8.0 by Pitchfork. I’d say that’s critically acclaimed.

[@nicolasacevedoferrate915]

Could you mean Sir Savage the 21st?

[@rahuldevalla4176]

I AM > I WAS is 21's best body of work to date IMO. Ball w/o You is one of the most underrated songs from 21's discography.

[@wandile_x_dlamini]

Issa is better.

[@xiaojingchang9475]

Savage Mode IS a classic

[@Atuggy]

Thank you for the amazing video 21 savage is one of the best rappers alive for how he brings his listeners into his mind and what he sees with his flow

[@syre_4714]

Visuals on this video insane. Volks got talent.

[@aldoringo439]

21 savage is the type of artist that consistently released a great standard of music but there are a few songs by him which are another level , and that's what makes him so popular (such as red opps, his feature in rich flex, knife talk feature, no heart, rockstar feature, no heart, a lot, x, and 10 freaky girls). Not many artists can do that - a lot just release music of a similar standard, which is why lil baby or Dababy for example haven't yet reached his level - they have no hits.

[@traplover6357]

Nothin New needed a mention from Issa. A conscious song from 21 made me see him differently

[@Volksgeist]

Great song yeah

[@SitcomIxajelEyes]

pro tip : put the 21 savage music of the current narration in the backround for maximum immersion

[@thebadassniggatomtom]

He improved so much as a rapper it's honestly crazy

[@calculatedly]

21 xxl freestyle went so fucking crazy since day 1 and it still hits to this day. knew he was gonna be one of the best outta that class.

[@brooklynnwolfe4968]

I remember not being really into 21 savage at first..until I am greater than I was released. Now I give this man all props🔥🔥

[@d2vin]

I always knew 21 would stay in the game. the 21 ad-lib was as iconic then as it is now.

[@orbash2636]

i don’t remember ISSA being wack lol.

[@deandrestreet322]

It wasn't!!!!! Still listening now

[@Cat-xu5wo]

Knew 21 was gonna be goat status when savage mode dropped my senior year of high school

[@landontalkington230]

Without Warning is a classic. No doubt at all.

[@senjux7514]

You made me listen to seeing Double again thx :D

[@mo.shahan]

Sir savage the 21st🐐⚔️😈🔥

[@AlcoholicAlbert]

21 imo aside from his work is also one of the best artists to be a feature on others songs, shit hits different

[@wandile_x_dlamini]

21 is a goat man, so underrated

[@lctnzrtnzr5749]

The Freshman Freestyle with 21 in it is the best Video on YT by far.

[@bradical2577]

Thank you sir

I thought there might be something in this about his time the Nuwaubian Nation of Moors and Dr. York but I dig it

[@ntsubeats]

He was produced by the best producer ever. Metro Boomin

[@dogfacedponysoldier5971]

If Anthony fantano and Sam Hyde had a baby it would look like this dude in the video.

[@WhiteTenpenny]

Brand New Draco from Savage Mode 2 is the hardest song and on my top three from him.

[@gatesboy7645]

Savage mode for sure is a classic project

[@boj091]

Love 21 he been in my top 3 for 3 years hope he keeps growing. I agree I am I was people don’t talk about it to much, Underrated probably my fav 21 album

[@shnikez]

Bro how did you gloss over red opps and drake turning up to that song before anyone even really knew him?? Also, Savage Mode 1 is a classic and is his best project imo

[@drewev]

21 is legend ppl don’t talk about him enough

[@Ahmad-kr2pn]

He's the king of features these days. Have a pop song that needs carrying? Slap a 21 savage verse on it

Idc what people say he is one of the best of this generation

Exactly

personally for me, savage mode 2 is his best album.

[@orbash2636]

I AM > I WAS was the shit 🌪. and describing 21s art as a “villain character” is nonsense. that man made real music on that album! 📌

[@Volksgeist]

He has always played that character though. But he is also so much more.

[@xXOr30Xx]

Issa Album is a fucking classic in its entirety. what are you saying

[@camrynjames3669]

21 savage is an incredible artist he is my favourite artist and in my opinion he’s the only artist you can listen to the whole album that he releases and love every song rappers these days have one hit songs on albums and the other songs are trash 21 has all round great albums and when he features he takes over every track he features on.

[@globalpotaoto6681]

I am better then I was genuinely one of the best albums to drop in the late 2010s it should easily be considered a classic album

[@shi-nee7966]

i feel 21 savage is our gen's BigL and i hope he dont end like him. but i have a feeling he will altho i hope i dont. He the top1 in trap rn for me.

[@gonks7071]

As a fan of both please explain

[@SubwooferKing100]

Just for you liking Chopped & Screwed music. I’m going to give you a subscribe! Thanks for showing love to the Chopped & Screwed community

[@JaeMarkwick]

I don’t think he has a classic, but I do believe he’s already released the one that will be viewed as classic

[@md.m.8372]

The first two tracks on 21's 'Slaughter King' mixtape are hard as fuck & still are solid bangers thru & thru in my opinion 🤷‍♂️

ngl metro and 21 best duo in trap by far

[@liijj]

I am glad I'm his fan. I started idolizing him for his murder music when I was like 16, and now I'm 22, I'm still idolize him coz he is past that life and moved on in his life for good. People should stop comparing his music persona with real life.
