Context for all yall. VI Seconds is responding to Denzil Porter and somewhat Chris Rivers and Oswin Benjamin. All of em top tier lyricists that are on TEAMBACKPACK. This whole thing started when VI was talking on Facebook saying he, and his boys Flawless RI and Passionate MC, could beat Chris Rivers, Oswin Benjamin and Denzil Porter for best cypher performance. Denzil Porter then responded in his third verse on a a TEAMBACKPACK Barfight with Mad Squablz (Who is actually really good as well) Passionate MC broke out imeediately with a diss track that was CRAZY called Et, tu Brute? Denzil slapped him back with a dope ass response and now we have VI Seconds with this piece right here. I STRONGLY advise that the VI fans check out the other MC's involved (Passionate MC, Chris Rivers, Denzil Porter, Oswin Benjamin, Flawless Real Talk etc.) Here is the UA-cam diss timeline: Mad Squablz vs Denzil Porter (listen to the 3rd verse for the shots) Passionate MC - Et tu, Brute? Denzil Porter - Lucille VI Seconds - Bite the Bullet Concerning my opinion, I'm a big fan of all these guys. Been so for almost 5 years now so I'm thrilled with all the bars being thrown around. No L's just some good competition! Hip-hop is still here people so grab your popcorn.
Great breakdown of everything going on; but I'd like to also add the LAX to JFK cypher with Kaj, Pass, Porter & VI to the list as Passionate mentions it a lot in the 1st diss and even uses the beat in the 2nd.
Vl has a pretty varied? catalog, id reccomend "3.AM", "2 sons" (prolly my favorite of his) or "Her" or "Lovely nostalgia". Just a tip if you want to hear him on somethin else then straight punchline rap :) cool reaction
Aaron Scott I definitely considered that cypher but Passionate MC used that more as a reference point from when they didn't have beef (or the arguments were behind closed doors).
Denzil Porter - Lucille is easily one of the best diss tracks I have heard in YEARS. It's thematic, it's got bars, and holy shit does it have punchline after punchline all wrapped up into this insane little montage. If you want another amazing example of diss/beef tracks listen to some of the Snak the Ripper/Madchild stuff. Child Abuse is an exercise in insults lol
"Guys we're not gonna break down every line for you" They say this on every video then proceed to break down every line lmaoo. 20 minute long reaction videos haha. I ain't hatin tho I love your guys channel keep it up fam!
Love this videoreaction guys. Love the fact that the lyrics are up and that you comment and explain parts of them for hiphop newcomers as metalheads like me. It really helps to understand the track. For real, thank you for these videos. Greaty work guys, keep it up and keep it real!!
Man big ups to VI Seconds for properly handling business negotiations professionally. I thought this song was a rollercoaster where it had it's up and down moments but you still enjoy it nonetheless. I gotta respect his creativity with some of the bars despite how corny some of it was lmfao. He got the talent and the production but I also want to know where he wanna take it. For me I would like to hear some more from him showcasing his other abilities and his talent of putting songs together of different substance so I can measure his growth. Again shoutouts to VI Seconds for the work he put out and amazing job on your part Lost In Vegas for keeping up with the Breakdown.
You should check out “3:30AM”, “2 Sons”, “Too Long” and “Last Laugh” for different styles of song from VI. He’s very much capable of making hard hitting punchline songs like this, which he mainly does, but he shows off his versatility in the songs I listed above.
And this is why I unsubscribed from other reaction channels. Great review 👏🏾👏🏾, amaze what flew over my head on my first listen before y’all broke it down👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.
Y'all asked about who VI is dissing, he's dissing Denzil Porter since VI's buddy Passionate MC has been beefing with Denzil and OCD as a whole so people are hoping for a bar fight between OCD(Oswin Benjamin, Chris Rivers, and Denzil Porter) and VI, Passionate MC, and Flawless
Metalhead here. I stuck around! You guys have actually gotten me into a few new artists recently. VI seconds is awesome. I was really into that logic song from the other day. I had never listened to Devin Townsend (don't tell my metal friends) and now I am hooked. Keep it up!! Also, one of my absolute favorite metal songs of all time is "the year summer ended in June" by misery signals. The band isn't as big as most of the bands you guys play but this song is amazing. You will dig the lyrics too. Check it out, on the channel or not!
Fellow Metalhead here! I won't rat you out at the next big show, hahaha, but if you enjoyed Devin Townsend, check what he did with Strapping Young Lad.
Listening to this makes me feel like a badass!! Playlist for sure. Thanks for the exposure to different musical genres. ❤️ the channel. Free thinkers unite
Hey Lost In Vegas! I have been rocking with you guys for sometime now and i love what you are doing here on youtube i appreciate every video even if i don't like a certain artist or whatever i still want to hear what you guys have to say about it. Im a metalhead at heart but hiphop has always been a huge part of my life too i've always been a fan of more underground stuff just because most commercial rap is garbage there are still great artists up there and the legends that i can always go back and listen too but overall i rock with the underground, with that being said some of these artists are not getting the exposure they need even if they are underground and this is exactly what they need to get that little extra push! Vi seconds is pretty dope and alot of other artists on the teambackpack platform. My favorite is Locksmith followed by Passionate Mc and Street Light which is ironically Vi seconds friends both of them. I just feel so good coming here daily seeing a new video upload from LIV it really makes my day! If you could do anything from any of these artists i would appreciate it. i do appreciate you guys anyway though :D You already know locksmith is dope i hope more from him in the future, but if you want to check out Street light he has a new song called Unworthy which is really dope. Or passionate mc different material he made recently 2 disses on Denzil Porter and have some original content out. Much love from Norway! Im gonna keep on supporting you guys you really deserve it.
For all the free thinkers who aren't on twitter, the other day you two asked for recent rap to react to. I'm putting my response wherever I can. Wu-Tang, people say ft. Redman. Produced by Mathematics and he brought back the feeling from the old 36 chambers era Wu.
As a fan of Metal I appreciate how you break down the lyrics. Makes me wanna expand my musical interests. Keep it up, and have a safe and happy New Year's.
Watching VI video and love that you two opened me up to lyrics that I wouldn't pick up on. The word play is amazing. Im a metal guy, but ultimately a music guy and love your open view on music. Keep it up.
I gotta thank you for breaking down the lines for those who are unfamiliar with hip-hop, certainly adds more to why you guys are my favourite reaction channel out there as you see music for what it is.
Congrats on reaching that 200k+. It was just earlier this week you guys were at 180 something, which just shows you're reaching the people, and they're loving it!!
Great reaction. Made me catch some of the lines I missed, especially the ones from like older movies or rap groups. Also I suggest you check out "330am" and/or "Last Laugh" for different feeling from the battle rap type songs you hear from him.
Rocker and "Metalhead" here, but grew up with DMC/LL/NWA/PE as well. Admittedly, I lost touch with Rap/Hip-Hop recently, but this video was great. Definitely going to check out more from VI Seconds. Keep up the good work. And of course, Happy New Year.
" Clips for yr whole scene " also a reference to music production software ableton live, where you have a number of sound clips which come together to form what the software calls 'scenes.'
Thank you for all the content the musical diversity. #freethinkers is going to go a far way. I can see your critique formula fleshing itself out very good. It's exciting to see a hub we're all of these different groups can come together and enjoy each other's cultures and communities through music the way God intended.
Metalhead who's chiming in - I decided to check this out after watching the metal reaction videos, and all I can say is damn. This is some awesome music. Badass beats and lyrics, and you guys were pretty on point with your input too. I don't know much rap/hip-hop/rnb/etc.. but what I do know is I want more like this. So down. Thanks for the great review/reaction.
aye yo i'm thoroughly enjoying your vids keep em coming. Definitely one of the top and the only reaction channel i have subscribed to. And seriously yall need to do Ab Soul next, it's about time. Any Ab Soul tracks Evil Genius The End Is Near Pineal Gland, Just any Ab Soul track
As one of your metalhead subscribers, I stuck it out till the end because I love rap as well. I think you guys nailed this reaction. The best was right, some real slick clever lines and a few corny ones, and a pretty good flow. Even though I prefer your metal reactions, it's great to see other things too. Keep up the good work guys!
Metalhead subscriber here! I thought this was great; hip hop is a genre I mostly listen to for the beats and the flow, but I can't always get into the actual content of the lyrics because, as you demonstrated here, they can be so dense and specific. It was fun seeing you break this down verse by verse!
This is gonna be a long comment I think, but I know my boys be reading this cause they always do even though we hit 200k, real af to keep reading comments and responding as much as you do! This is my opinion, gotta clear things out since it's 2017 (not for very long). I honestly think this is one of the, if not the best reaction you ever made LIV... The way you broke down the lyrics and explained the situation so that anyone could understand it was truly remarkable. I've been bumping IV seconds for I don't know how long and I think he's very underrated still and very lyrically gifted so I appreciate you guys keep on helping him grow, CAUSE YOU DO!! Shoutout to my man TheAdamSmasher Multiverse for giving people a great summary of the whole situation so I don't have to haha. Anyway, AMAZING reaction! Keep on dropping high quality content like this, understand that these guys are men not defined by their wage. Even though it's in the millions (soon). That shit don't define their brilliance! Open your mind and maybe you can see the billions (soon). Tryna quote while 5 beers in. It's 3 AM here, (make a reaction to that song maybe?). As I was saying, was tryna quote Soul food - Logic, that reaction is one of my favorites as well. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GUYS, I LOVE YA'LL AND CAN'T THANK MY FRIEND SAM ENOUGH FOR GETTING ME HOOKED ON YOUR VIDEOS.
I really like the way you get into the lyrics. I am from Germany and I would not have understood all of that. When I read 'Bite the Bullet' in my feed I was thinking of Machine Head's Bite the Bullet for a second - that would have been sick :D Keep it up. You are familiarising a metal head with rap music here!
Bros he's got actual projects Animated and DemiGod with Substance that are available to check out. You guys gotta do one of these songs Last Laugh, 3:30, Too Long, Lovely Nostalgia to see that different side of him. Of that list my fave is probably Last Laugh too relatable.
This metal head loves it! But I still listen to old rap I grew up with. Not so much the new stuff, but I love old Mob Deep, GraveDiggaz, MC Breed, and the like.
Metal fan here. Love having the lyrics of these tunes broken down for me. It's exposing me to music that I wouldn't normally go for and expanding my musical horizons. Would love to see you guys do something that appeals to both sets of fans like Public Enemy, Onyx, or Cypress Hill.
I came to the rap section, I watched all of the metal songs reaction and I've been observing your progress into understanding metal. I think you are now ready. Do this one song from Vektor - Forests of the legend. I hope you guys are prepared. Cheers and all the best to you!
I think this diss targets Denzil Porter. There's some beef within Team Backpack. I don't know if it's a very serious one, but I don't claim to know for sure. First Passionate MC dissed Porter, then Porter responded... You could do a single video for these two videos, Passionate MC - Et tu, Brute? and Denzil Porter - Lucille (Passionette MC), there are some solid battle-rap bars in both. I think most people listen to and appreciate both Passionate and Porter (VI Seconds as well), they're all above-average lyricists, so nobody should really be upset about it.
Although I'm a metal fan I'm gunna give this music a try even though it isn't my favourite but I'm sure you guys will introduce me to something really good from this sort of genre. Love your guys work.
Not only are you guys blowing up and gaining fans like crazy, you're inspiring others. I just stumbled upon a channel by RealDeadOne, flipping the coin and reviewing rap tunes from a metal-heads perspective. The free thinkers have gone beyond a title for your fans and turned into real motivation for fans of other genres to open their ears and see what they've been missin'
Hands down favorite battle song: Professor Elemental - Fighting Trousers. BT Dubs: I'm a metal head. Also, long time hip hop fan. Totally dig this channel.
I fuck with you guys for that honest ass video and mostly for the fact that you guys arent money hungry or sell outs. You even react to people like VI seconds who arent that well known and not just popular artists. Props to you guys
If you wanna check out some other stuff from VI Seconds that isn't battle rap, I'd highly recommend checking out pretty much any song from his Demigod mixtape. Some of my favorites are 3:30 am, Last Laugh, Wonder Woman, and Reign. They're all dope though, so you can't go wrong with any song from the mixtape
I'm gonna keep trying. React to One Hand Killing, Shuriken or Mother Sky by Twelve Foot Ninja (preferably shuriken). Thought you guys might find them pretty interesting, they're an Australian progressive metal band who blend other genres into their music.
Great video guys and gratz on 200k!!! Backwordz- Self Ownership Fire From the Gods - Excuse Me These are Rap/Metal tracks with great bars, melodies etc. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
1. Ghost - Year zero/ Ritual 2. Arch enemy - You will know my name / No more regreats 3. Blind Guardian - Bards song / Mirror Mirror / Valhalla 4. Sabaton - Primo victoria/ Panzerkampf 5. Mushroomhead - Solitaire unraveling / Sun doesn't rise
I'm a metalhead and watched the whole thing I loved the 1000 ways to die line but little else. Don't get me wrong I loved public enemy, nwa and icet back in the day but that all felt more raw and aggressive to me than this kind of thing it feels a bit school yard where the other bands I mentioned fought the establishment. I get that it's a specific style but it feels like unless you are in the scene it's kind of lost in translation plus as a white guy I can't sing all the words. Ps I would love to see your thoughts on body count with ice t and metal fussion I love here I go again though it's probably not your cup of tea
vrslash1 I suggested that they just do a week of Metallica reactions like they did with Logic and say that's it no more Metallica. Purge the system and hope the request taper off or end. I really like their first 4 album's but it's getting overkill with request for em.
I really do love what you guys do. I have a hard time getting into modern hip hop, but I'm starting to come around again through your videos. Thank you. I've left many different suggestions for you guys to check out on various videos...and I'm gonna do it again! HAHAHAHA! There's a cult goth metal band from Finland that I think you guys would like. The band? His Infernal Majesty aka HIM. All of their songs are love songs that incorporate death and despair, however it's done so fucking beautifully. Ville Valo has an amazing baritone voice with a five-octave range. I recommend "Gone With the Sin", "Heartache Every Moment", "In Joy and Sorrow", "Dark Light", "Buried Alive By Love", "Pretending", "Soul On Fire", and HIM's cover of "Wicked Game". All of their songs are great, I've never been disappointed with HIM. :)
Discovered your channel not that long ago. I HATE reaction videos. But there are two channels doing reaction videos I like, one being you guys, and h3h3 productions. You're doing great job! I'm an avid metalhead myself, and know 90% of the songs you're reviewing inside out, but watching you guys react to it in such a real way gives totally new perspective and lets me enjoy the songs I already knew as if they were fresh. Keep it up! I know you reviewed Tool already, but I think you would LOVE to get busy with their song Aenima (or Aenema, it depends on how people are spelling it). Lyrics are insane, music is sick. Take that into consideration, I'd love to see you guys taking this song apart. Peace!
I just watched a bunch of videos from you guys and I do have few suggestion you might want to check out. I like the diversity you have in the metal genres and here's few new ones for you. All of em are absolutely awesome songs with something catchy. Nightwish - The Poet and The Pendulum Dimmu Borgir - The Progenies of the great Apocalypse Job for a Cowboy - Tarnished Gluttony A Perfect Circle - The Outsider In Flames - Cloud Connected The Haunted - The Failure God Forbid - Washed out world Ensiferum - Into battle Carach Angren - There's no place like home Arch Enemy - The Last Enemy
Loving the channel. Love the mix of music. I'd love to hear your opinions on a few songs from a few different genres. Brother Lynch Hung-Refuse to lose, Ghost-Ritual, E-40-Sideways, Tupac-Hit em Up, Korn-Right now, Devil Driver-Clouds over California, DMX-One more road to cross.
Guys loving the videos and reactions it's great and so true it's why I enjoy watching from you guys and not others. If your interested in doing another Megadeth reaction video may I suggest Megadeth: Ashes in your mouth from the Countdown to extinction album you'll love the chunk melodic riffs in this song please do this one eventually thanks! 🍻
I think its time for another Oswin Benjaming reaction.. men everydat i look at your channel if you uploaded a new one :P ! Great reaction as always. Keep it up fam.
Hey guys love the reactions. I'd suggest the next Rock Watch be Nothing More - This Is The Time or Jenny. They are probably the most thought provoking Rock band out right now. With how you guys dig into the lyrics I honestly think it would make for a great Episode!
Thank you for explaining the punchline that have impact because english isn't my first language and I get every word but sometimes it's not as easy to take it out in another context as it is in my main language
Metal head right here and i do fuck with VI. He is supposed to be dropping an album soon, lets hope there is smt else in there for you guys to react to.
TheAdamSmasher Multiverse 3:30 am is a well rounded song by vi seconds. So is last laugh. Both focus more on the message and wordplay than punchlines. I think you would like those more than this.
I am curious what metalheads think of this... because I don't like metal but when you guys do their songs and break em down, it's made me more interested. Dope video and six seconds is 🔥
Lol...I'd paid to see two country singers in a battle. I like watching battle raps,takes skill to say crazy ass shit that rhymes. Great job guys as always 🤘.
Hey guys, great video as usual. First time commenting on one of your videos. I noticed that you have never made a reaction / review of Joey Purp. He's definitely my favorite rapper right now, and he's totally underrated. Could you please do a video of his song "Cornerstore" or his song "Don't Stop"? They're both incredible and make for a good introduction for the rest of his work. I really hope you see this comment, I'm sure he could use the boost from your channel
It's like 2nd Christmas! Had a vid on my way home from work last night and one on my way in this morning! I like this guy's sound and it's produced well but I just can't get into this battle rap. All this talk of killing and shit over beefs. Maybe I'm just old. Lmao. I'd like to hear his other stuff as well because I really like his voice and style. Dude is talented, no doubt about that. Great breakdown guys. Much love.
I was wondering if you guys could do some comparison videos, listen to a song then a cover of the song. For example "Gone Away" by The Offspring and the cover being "Gone Away by Five Finger Death Punch, another is "Momma said knock you out" by LL Cool J and again by Five Finger Death Punch "Momma said knock you out" would really enjoy these vids but I'll understand if you can't or dont want to. Congrats on 200k
Hey issues and woe, is me made dis songs about each other. Issues- king of Amarillo and woe is me- I've told you once. These songs need a dual reaction. But know, they are HEAVY HEAVY metal.
please react to some arctic monkeys. They are a very popular british rock band. Here are some suggestions: Arctic monkeys:Arabella Arctic Monkeys:Crying Lightning Arctic monkeys: Teddy Picker great video btw
Context for all yall.
VI Seconds is responding to Denzil Porter and somewhat Chris Rivers and Oswin Benjamin. All of em top tier lyricists that are on TEAMBACKPACK.
This whole thing started when VI was talking on Facebook saying he, and his boys Flawless RI and Passionate MC, could beat Chris Rivers, Oswin Benjamin and Denzil Porter for best cypher performance.
Denzil Porter then responded in his third verse on a a TEAMBACKPACK Barfight with Mad Squablz (Who is actually really good as well)
Passionate MC broke out imeediately with a diss track that was CRAZY called Et, tu Brute?
Denzil slapped him back with a dope ass response
and now we have VI Seconds with this piece right here.
I STRONGLY advise that the VI fans check out the other MC's involved (Passionate MC, Chris Rivers, Denzil Porter, Oswin Benjamin, Flawless Real Talk etc.)
Here is the UA-cam diss timeline:
Mad Squablz vs Denzil Porter (listen to the 3rd verse for the shots)
Passionate MC - Et tu, Brute?
Denzil Porter - Lucille
VI Seconds - Bite the Bullet
Concerning my opinion, I'm a big fan of all these guys. Been so for almost 5 years now so I'm thrilled with all the bars being thrown around. No L's just some good competition! Hip-hop is still here people so grab your popcorn.
We appreciate the breakdown my man. This was very helpful!
Great breakdown of everything going on; but I'd like to also add the LAX to JFK cypher with Kaj, Pass, Porter & VI to the list as Passionate mentions it a lot in the 1st diss and even uses the beat in the 2nd.
Vl has a pretty varied? catalog, id reccomend "3.AM", "2 sons" (prolly my favorite of his) or "Her" or "Lovely nostalgia". Just a tip if you want to hear him on somethin else then straight punchline rap :) cool reaction

If you want another amazing example of diss/beef tracks listen to some of the Snak the Ripper/Madchild stuff. Child Abuse is an exercise in insults lol
Bless!
gotta get Joey on the remix lol
They should do 3am reaction
Salute!
PipeBomb SD i strongly agree
Soooo, about clips?
"Guys we're not gonna break down every line for you" They say this on every video then proceed to break down every line lmaoo. 20 minute long reaction videos haha. I ain't hatin tho I love your guys channel keep it up fam!
"We won't explain all the lyrics"....proceeds into a syllable by syllable breakdown of the bars. Love you guys
Love this videoreaction guys. Love the fact that the lyrics are up and that you comment and explain parts of them for hiphop newcomers as metalheads like me. It really helps to understand the track. For real, thank you for these videos. Greaty work guys, keep it up and keep it real!!

If you want something different from VI Seconds listen to 330 am
I'm a huge metal head and I've loved shizzy since he was doing his anime raps. Don't assume metalheads only know about metal :p
Listen to vi seconds 3:30 am or last laugh
gregory Shannon yeah
You know a song fire when George pulls an ugly face
Pat Gro - ha ha... I know. You can tell he's in it when he looks like, "somebody shitted."
🧛🏾♂️ Life
Lost In Vegas rip android
Lost In Vegas shoulda said "I'm hard to see marchin in like John C[ena]"
Lost In Vegas are you guys planning to maybe do another q&a?
Btw, congratz on 200k. The best reaction channel!
React to last laugh by VI seconds
Y'all asked about who VI is dissing, he's dissing Denzil Porter since VI's buddy Passionate MC has been beefing with Denzil and OCD as a whole so people are hoping for a bar fight between OCD(Oswin Benjamin, Chris Rivers, and Denzil Porter) and VI, Passionate MC, and Flawless
i love when you guys explain the lyrics its awesome
Metalhead here. I stuck around! You guys have actually gotten me into a few new artists recently. VI seconds is awesome. I was really into that logic song from the other day. I had never listened to Devin Townsend (don't tell my metal friends) and now I am hooked. Keep it up!! Also, one of my absolute favorite metal songs of all time is "the year summer ended in June" by misery signals. The band isn't as big as most of the bands you guys play but this song is amazing.

TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios). The pinnacle of prog-metal, I can't run out of things to say about these guys. Tesseract is THE. BEST.
Crazy how fast you guys are growing. Just the other month when I followed you were at about 10k. The diversity in music helps. #FreeThinkers
Congratulations on 200k guys, well deserved!
Watching VI video and love that you two opened me up to lyrics that I wouldn't pick up on. The word play is amazing. Im a metal guy, but ultimately a music guy and love your open view on music. Keep it up.

Dragonforce - Through the Fire and Flames
Thnx for the breakdown my Gs,appreciate it 👍
Sylosis - After Lifeless years, an underrated modern British group that need to be brought to the attention of your american followers.
Great reaction. Made me catch some of the lines I missed, especially the ones from like older movies or rap groups. Also I suggest you check out "330am" and/or "Last Laugh" for different feeling from the battle rap type songs you hear from him.
RPGMaster yoo ain't seen you in a minute, what's good fam?😂
RPGMaster Haha I see, hope everything going well with you man. Happy new years to you too bro :]
Rocker and "Metalhead" here, but grew up with DMC/LL/NWA/PE as well. Admittedly, I lost touch with Rap/Hip-Hop recently, but this video was great. Definitely going to check out more from VI Seconds. Keep up the good work. And of course, Happy New Year.
You guy are awesome watch you guys every morning before work !!
" Clips for yr whole scene " also a reference to music production software ableton live, where you have a number of sound clips which come together to form what the software calls 'scenes.'
Indestructible - Disturbed. One of the best metal songs.

I thought this was great; hip hop is a genre I mostly listen to for the beats and the flow, but I can't always get into the actual content of the lyrics because, as you demonstrated here, they can be so dense and specific. It was fun seeing you break this down verse by verse!
Finally, I've been waiting for this Soo long bro.
This is gonna be a long comment I think, but I know my boys be reading this cause they always do even though we hit 200k, real af to keep reading comments and responding as much as you do! This is my opinion, gotta clear things out since it's 2017 (not for very long). I honestly think this is one of the, if not the best reaction you ever made LIV... The way you broke down the lyrics and explained the situation so that anyone could understand it was truly remarkable. I've been bumping IV seconds for I don't know how long and I think he's very underrated still and very lyrically gifted so I appreciate you guys keep on helping him grow, CAUSE YOU DO!! Shoutout to my man TheAdamSmasher Multiverse for giving people a great summary of the whole situation so I don't have to haha. Anyway, AMAZING reaction! Keep on dropping high quality content like this, understand that these guys are men not defined by their wage. Even though it's in the millions (soon). That shit don't define their brilliance! Open your mind and maybe you can see the billions (soon). Tryna quote while 5 beers in. It's 3 AM here, (make a reaction to that song maybe?). As I was saying, was tryna quote Soul food - Logic, that reaction is one of my favorites as well. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GUYS, I LOVE YA'LL AND CAN'T THANK MY FRIEND SAM ENOUGH FOR GETTING ME HOOKED ON YOUR VIDEOS.
AWESOME comment bro! We really appreciate the support!
I really like the way you get into the lyrics. I am from Germany and I would not have understood all of that. When I read 'Bite the Bullet' in my feed I was thinking of Machine Head's Bite the Bullet for a second - that would have been sick :D Keep it up. You are familiarising a metal head with rap music here!
That’s crazy that vi seconds shouted you out 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 you’re blowing up on here 🔥🔥
Bros he's got actual projects Animated and DemiGod with Substance that are available to check out. You guys gotta do one of these songs Last Laugh, 3:30, Too Long, Lovely Nostalgia to see that different side of him. Of that list my fave is probably Last Laugh too relatable.
Kelly Lengo Mbouala facts!!!!
This metal head loves it! But I still listen to old rap I grew up with. Not so much the new stuff, but I love old Mob Deep, GraveDiggaz, MC Breed, and the like.
Metal fan here. Love having the lyrics of these tunes broken down for me. It's exposing me to music that I wouldn't normally go for and expanding my musical horizons. Would love to see you guys do something that appeals to both sets of fans like Public Enemy, Onyx, or Cypress Hill.
Vi seconds - Last laugh or 3:00am for something that's different, keep doing what you do guys love the content!
I came to the rap section, I watched all of the metal songs reaction and I've been observing your progress into understanding metal. I think you are now ready. Do this one song from Vektor - Forests of the legend. I hope you guys are prepared. Cheers and all the best to you!
I think this diss targets Denzil Porter. There's some beef within Team Backpack. I don't know if it's a very serious one, but I don't claim to know for sure. First Passionate MC dissed Porter, then Porter responded... You could do a single video for these two videos, Passionate MC - Et tu, Brute? and Denzil Porter - Lucille (Passionette MC), there are some solid battle-rap bars in both. I think most people listen to and appreciate both Passionate and Porter (VI Seconds as well), they're all above-average lyricists, so nobody should really be upset about it.
Although I'm a metal fan I'm gunna give this music a try even though it isn't my favourite but I'm sure you guys will introduce me to something really good from this sort of genre. Love your guys work.
Not only are you guys blowing up and gaining fans like crazy, you're inspiring others. I just stumbled upon a channel by RealDeadOne, flipping the coin and reviewing rap tunes from a metal-heads perspective. The free thinkers have gone beyond a title for your fans and turned into real motivation for fans of other genres to open their ears and see what they've been missin'
Hands down favorite battle song: Professor Elemental - Fighting Trousers.
BT Dubs: I'm a metal head. Also, long time hip hop fan. Totally dig this channel.
Time - Pink Floyd
H4XXOR666 YES. Dogs or Sheep could be fun too.
I'm a free thinker. And damn proud of it. Dope reaction as always, fellas! 👍
I fuck with you guys for that honest ass video and mostly for the fact that you guys arent money hungry or sell outs. You even react to people like VI seconds who arent that well known and not just popular artists. Props to you guys
It's hilarious how many copycats of you guys UA-cam puts in my suggestions. You've really made an impact. Congrats on 200k! Keep the momentum going!
Hip-hop saved my life- Lupe Fiasco
If you wanna check out some other stuff from VI Seconds that isn't battle rap, I'd highly recommend checking out pretty much any song from his Demigod mixtape. Some of my favorites are 3:30 am, Last Laugh, Wonder Woman, and Reign. They're all dope though, so you can't go wrong with any song from the mixtape
guys congrats on 2ook you deserve more. plsss flying whaales it has to be done
I'm gonna keep trying. React to One Hand Killing, Shuriken or Mother Sky by Twelve Foot Ninja (preferably shuriken).
Thought you guys might find them pretty interesting, they're an Australian progressive metal band who blend other genres into their music.
#Freethinkers 🔥🔥🔥
Happy New year free thinkers!
Great video guys and gratz on 200k!!!
Backwordz- Self Ownership
Fire From the Gods - Excuse Me
These are Rap/Metal tracks with great bars, melodies etc. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
1. Ghost - Year zero/ Ritual
2. Arch enemy - You will know my name / No more regreats
3. Blind Guardian - Bards song / Mirror Mirror / Valhalla
4. Sabaton - Primo victoria/ Panzerkampf
5. Mushroomhead - Solitaire unraveling / Sun doesn't rise
Thanks for the review!
Uncle Lucius- Keeping the Wolves Away
Hey, I'm a metalhead but I still enjoy your rap reactions, even more when it's VI, I love the dude
You guys have to review some Run The Jewels tracks.
Don't sleep on them fellas!
Keep up the quality videos!
I'm a metalhead and watched the whole thing I loved the 1000 ways to die line but little else. Don't get me wrong I loved public enemy, nwa and icet back in the day but that all felt more raw and aggressive to me than this kind of thing it feels a bit school yard where the other bands I mentioned fought the establishment. I get that it's a specific style but it feels like unless you are in the scene it's kind of lost in translation plus as a white guy I can't sing all the words.
Ps I would love to see your thoughts on body count with ice t and metal fussion I love here I go again though it's probably not your cup of tea
Michael Barry body count is the shit they need to react to that shit!
METALLICA- BLACKENED
Yeah if they liked One.... best song on Justice
vrslash1 I suggested that they just do a week of Metallica reactions like they did with Logic and say that's it no more Metallica. Purge the system and hope the request taper off or end. I really like their first 4 album's but it's getting overkill with request for em.
I really do love what you guys do. I have a hard time getting into modern hip hop, but I'm starting to come around again through your videos. Thank you. I've left many different suggestions for you guys to check out on various videos...and I'm gonna do it again! HAHAHAHA! There's a cult goth metal band from Finland that I think you guys would like. The band? His Infernal Majesty aka HIM. All of their songs are love songs that incorporate death and despair, however it's done so fucking beautifully. Ville Valo has an amazing baritone voice with a five-octave range. I recommend "Gone With the Sin", "Heartache Every Moment", "In Joy and Sorrow", "Dark Light", "Buried Alive By Love", "Pretending", "Soul On Fire", and HIM's cover of "Wicked Game". All of their songs are great, I've never been disappointed with HIM. :)
love the late uploads 🔥
Discovered your channel not that long ago. I HATE reaction videos. But there are two channels doing reaction videos I like, one being you guys, and h3h3 productions.
You're doing great job!
I'm an avid metalhead myself, and know 90% of the songs you're reviewing inside out, but watching you guys react to it in such a real way gives totally new perspective and lets me enjoy the songs I already knew as if they were fresh. Keep it up!
I know you reviewed Tool already, but I think you would LOVE to get busy with their song Aenima (or Aenema, it depends on how people are spelling it). Lyrics are insane, music is sick. Take that into consideration, I'd love to see you guys taking this song apart.
Peace!
I just watched a bunch of videos from you guys and I do have few suggestion you might want to check out.
I like the diversity you have in the metal genres and here's few new ones for you. All of em are absolutely awesome songs with something catchy.
Nightwish - The Poet and The Pendulum
Dimmu Borgir - The Progenies of the great Apocalypse
Job for a Cowboy - Tarnished Gluttony
A Perfect Circle - The Outsider
In Flames - Cloud Connected
The Haunted - The Failure
God Forbid - Washed out world
Ensiferum - Into battle
Carach Angren - There's no place like home
Arch Enemy - The Last Enemy
Megadeth- symphony of destruction
Metallica- for whom the bell tolls
Anonymuz- urameshi
Boogie- still thirsty
G yamazawa- rich chigga freestyle
Loving the channel. Love the mix of music. I'd love to hear your opinions on a few songs from a few different genres. Brother Lynch Hung-Refuse to lose, Ghost-Ritual, E-40-Sideways, Tupac-Hit em Up, Korn-Right now, Devil Driver-Clouds over California, DMX-One more road to cross.
Vi seconds is damn good. Thank you lost in vegas another artist for me to look into and listen to
i’m a metalhead and this lyric shit is FIRE 🔥🔥🔥
He’s been taking it easy lately, I think because he’s saving his good stuff for his EP
Just heard of this dude. Nice to see somebody emphasizing lyrics again.
Guys loving the videos and reactions it's great and so true it's why I enjoy watching from you guys and not others. If your interested in doing another Megadeth reaction video may I suggest Megadeth: Ashes in your mouth from the Countdown to extinction album you'll love the chunk melodic riffs in this song please do this one eventually thanks! 🍻
I think its time for another Oswin Benjaming reaction.. men everydat i look at your channel if you uploaded a new one :P ! Great reaction as always. Keep it up fam.
Hey guys love the reactions. I'd suggest the next Rock Watch be Nothing More - This Is The Time or Jenny.
They are probably the most thought provoking Rock band out right now. With how you guys dig into the lyrics I honestly think it would make for a great Episode!
Thanks for introducing me to this; I'm super into this!! Are you guys into K-Rino at all?... Thanks!
I think you should check out 330 am, last laugh, or on everything by vi, I feel yall would see something different
Thank you for explaining the punchline that have impact because english isn't my first language and I get every word but sometimes it's not as easy to take it out in another context as it is in my main language
This is great. I've never heard of VI Seconds. So this is like my first reaction too.
Metal head right here and i do fuck with VI.
He is supposed to be dropping an album soon, lets hope there is smt else in there for you guys to react to.
TheAdamSmasher Multiverse 3:30 am is a well rounded song by vi seconds. So is last laugh. Both focus more on the message and wordplay than punchlines. I think you would like those more than this.
Zaki I heard em. Favorite tracks off the Demigod tape
Sleep - Dragonaut
Smooth metal that will make you feel like a badass listening to it. I think you guys will like this one.
I am curious what metalheads think of this... because I don't like metal but when you guys do their songs and break em down, it's made me more interested. Dope video and six seconds is 🔥
KING LOS, ROYCE DA 5'9, HOPSIN - Everybody's a bitch
Lol...I'd paid to see two country singers in a battle. I like watching battle raps,takes skill to say crazy ass shit that rhymes. Great job guys as always 🤘.
Hey guys, great video as usual. First time commenting on one of your videos. I noticed that you have never made a reaction / review of Joey Purp. He's definitely my favorite rapper right now, and he's totally underrated. Could you please do a video of his song "Cornerstore" or his song "Don't Stop"? They're both incredible and make for a good introduction for the rest of his work.
I really hope you see this comment, I'm sure he could use the boost from your channel
It's like 2nd Christmas! Had a vid on my way home from work last night and one on my way in this morning! I like this guy's sound and it's produced well but I just can't get into this battle rap. All this talk of killing and shit over beefs. Maybe I'm just old. Lmao. I'd like to hear his other stuff as well because I really like his voice and style. Dude is talented, no doubt about that. Great breakdown guys. Much love.
for today - saul or tarsus
great video as usual guys!
I was wondering if you guys could do some comparison videos, listen to a song then a cover of the song. For example "Gone Away" by The Offspring and the cover being "Gone Away by Five Finger Death Punch, another is "Momma said knock you out" by LL Cool J and again by Five Finger Death Punch "Momma said knock you out" would really enjoy these vids but I'll understand if you can't or dont want to. Congrats on 200k
Great video as always guys! My personal favorite from VI Seconds is probably Last Laugh, what's your opinion on that one?
Hey issues and woe, is me made dis songs about each other. Issues- king of Amarillo and woe is me- I've told you once. These songs need a dual reaction. But know, they are HEAVY HEAVY metal.
please react to some arctic monkeys. They are a very popular british rock band. Here are some suggestions:
Arctic monkeys:Arabella
Arctic Monkeys:Crying Lightning
Arctic monkeys: Teddy Picker
great video btw
Great reaction
