For anyone who had never seen joyner before when this came out, it had to have been that much wilder of a video to see come out.
It sure was! I was falling asleep stoned on the couch a few years ago when UA-cam rotated into this one and I was like "what tf did that guy just say?!" for a good 30sec I thought the white guy was joyner and I had no idea where this was going lol
As someone who's 1st experience with Joyner was this song, it was a mindf**k... one of the very few current day rapper i actually like now, starting with this song though
my first joyner experience was ross capicchioni
I'm from Worcester County, so this was epic to me and so relatable.
Joyner Lucas - Ross Cappichioni
That’s the one that put me on! What a throwback! 🫡
the start of it all
“Backwards” put me on as well! 🔥🔥
I'm gonna be honest and a lot of people probably won't agree with me, but I kinda really dislike the way he changed the story and that he didn't even ask Ross if it was cool to make a song about it.
@ I mean, I saw the whole UA-cam docu-clip with Ross himself. The story wasn’t radically changed really. Just heightened for story telling, half the “true story” movies you watch do that.
Thank you for speaking on this. This song is so important. I think This Is America is also super important. Thank you again.
Also, I love that when the first half ends the lyric is 2 people on a different floor, while the last half says split into both sides. Not that one side is above the other, but that they are on the same level.
Your objective look on it is refreshing. Appreciate it! Glad I found your channel. Cheers
11:55 Right there with you Krizz, I have to fight the tears too when they hug it out
As a white man in a small country town my father taught me these things too! All young men get that talk from there father's in our area
Great reaction Krizz … thank you for getting personal 😊
You are a brilliant man sir. Well spoken and have your mind in the right place. 🙏 Joyner hit this hard, never has a song ever meant so much, I hope more and more people catch onto this, I have had this on deck since it released and it’s so true
Joyner one of my favs. I remember waking up and seeing him trending on Twitter and this was what it was about.
The thing that will save this country is dads being present and being a father. That goes for all races. Fathers raise men, women raise children.
Nvr heard it put that way but damnnnnn if that ain’t the truth.
facts
@@nunya6874 Its not a knock on women, I believe a mother’s key role is in the first 10 years of a boys life, she is the love and nurture a young boy needs. A father’s key role is in the next 10 years. That boy needs to develop into a man and learn discipline and respect. A father cant nurture the same way a mother does, and a mother cant teach a boy to be a man the same way a father can. It truly does take a couple.
The hug touched me too
When I first saw that video when it first came out years ago, I was taken aback at first, but realized it was a beautiful piece of art. Amazing.
What an amazing level of insight. Love how you share your wisdom in such a relatable way.
I fell in love with hip-hop music in the 90's when I was around 12. As a white kid from a middle class, hard working family, I used to hate when people would make comments like, "What, are you trying to be a gangster or something?" I couldn't really articulate it at the time, but those kinds of comments towards me were so ignorant. I was never trying to emulate anything I listened to; but loved the poetry, storytelling, artistry, etc. Looking back, I feel like it helped me develop my empathy and understanding for other people. It was a window into a world that was completely foreign to me. The amazing storytelling of Nas, Pac and many others helped me understand and relate to people very different from myself. 30 years later and I'm still a huge hip-hop nerd for life.
As another white kid from a lower middle class family, I totally get what you’re saying, I grew up on jay z,Wayne,etc and saw so many parallels in the lyrics, it isn’t about being gangster it’s about struggles, my life may not haven been in danger in the same way but I went without ALOT and always wished for more, and loved the storytelling and talent in hip hop
Facts man.... If you even for a second try and indulge in another's culture you have a horde of white people and family members crawling out of the wood work to make you feel bad for doing so. My own dad would constantly say how bad my music taste is just cause it was rap or hiphop.... 20 years later guess whos caught up and listens to the same stuff that i listened too when i was 10. yeah my father! And i also feel that 90% of racism at its core actually comes down too classism. but people take that and apply it to a whole race.
@ I feel that. I'm super grateful that my parents didn't discourage me from enjoying hip-hop music, even though it wasn't their thing. I did convert my 69 year old Dad into a Harry Mack fan and he went with me to one of his live shows, which was so awesome.
@ I got my dad listening to Frank ocean, Kendrick and Tobi lou
@ That's awesome.
Kali Baby!! Great reaction!! Been listening to you for a long time...love from Wyoming!!
Understanding and communication. Much love brother. God loves all of us!
You know it's gonna be a deep reaction when he doesn't say "Gimme a pause" after stopping it. Such a great reaction as always! (The first couple times)
Mike definitely blew my mind with this years ago when he first introduced me to Joyner Lucas. 😮💨
You are so right! Love you!
Such a good song that i wish would reach more people. 2 extremes on both sides finding understanding. It's touching. ❤
🎯 What a Beautiful Reaction Krizz, your heart is what makes you one of my favorite dudes. I can relate 100%, I've always thought how beautiful this word would be if we all got along. I was very blessed to grow up very cultured and am very proud of it. I can write so much on this topic, but in short lets get over our Selves and come together. 🥁 Untity 🎸Through🎤 Music🎶 is very real which is why my son and I created Father & Son Vibes - Unity Through Music. Much Love & Endless Blessings to you & your FAMILY my Brother...❤🙏🏽✌🏽
Watching your reactions are refreshing. All this great music came out that we forgot about and you bring it back for a reaction and it’s like discovering it all over again. Thank you for this 🎉❤
I gotta say that I love your reaction to this video. Its nice to see some honesty and empathy online these days. You are a man that leads his life with his heart and I have much respect!
I been waiting for this. Ironically, another rapper you have worked with
Love the reaction Krizz been listening to you and Tech for years and enjoy all the time you stayed with Strange Music it’s cool seeing you in a different setting.
Much wisdom in your words, big love Krizz
Tough stuff. Love the honest reaction. Miss you rockin with Tech.
Joyner - I'm Sorry. I've watched it countless times and I still tear up
You just made me want to watch The Mask again.
Hell yeah.
This whole piece is honestly great and it should have far more attention than it does. At the end of the day, there are good people in bad situations on both sides, there are also hateful idiots on both sides, and unfortunately they tend to be the ones that are loudest so we hear from them the most. It's a systemic issue all the way down, but nobody has put out a good solution to fix it... or rather, nobody wants to listen to the good solutions to fix it, because the hateful idiots are also the ones profiting off of it. That's all I'm saying on that, but I appreciate your reaction and insight here Krizz.
Love this dude. Krizz u real asf
Krizz you are a great dude!
“If we didn’t fear each other, we could come near each other”. Beautiful @krizzkalikoreactsmusic
That hug gets me too
Joyner is gold!
The white character mentions Eminem's 2017 BET cypher. If you haven't seen that, I highly recommend it, and I recommend following it up with his track "The Ringer", which sort of continues the same thought and addresses criticisms people made of the cypher.
I also recommend his track "Untouchable" where he talks in depth about racial issues, and uses a similar white perspective vs black perspective format. In fact, Joyner's track released just 10 days before Em's.
I have told my children (now grown) Do not judge anyone, by color, their income. You will always win when you find a friend a person with a good heart.
So much can change just by listening to one another and hugging shit out.
Loved this song/video and totally agree. Conversation is the key but less and less of that happening. One reason I love
Ren. He is always pushing for that. Pushing for balance.
Powerful song with a powerful message
This song always makes me tear up a bit
Theres people who own those stereotypes within our existence..and those who dont!! I see people for who they are individually. ❤
Honestly Krizz got it right, We are all just humans living. You can be whatever you want to be seen as with enough effort.
Joyner scrubs his whole social media account before posting this so no one who hadn't already been following him didn't know which was Joyner and were HEATED when they thought it was the white guy cause it started with his POV
The only obstacle to understanding is experience. Hate feeds on ignorance. Look at a playground. Just all types of kids having fun and doing kid stuff. The essence of innocence. Those kids have to be taught to hate each other. We could all learn a lot from a good ol playground full of toddlers. Just pure joy.
My guy Krizz.... I pray for the day that we all realize we want the same things, regardless of our skin color or culture.
Dang krizz you got me crying
Enjoyed your Tiny Desk with Tech.
I function wit the reactions keep them coming
This song deserved a Grammy
Love the reactions and love your music. I hope the Lord continues to bless you and your family. Much love !
Every now and then I come across a song that hits me emotionally no matter what genre. This is deffo one of them. Love your reaction to this keeping an open mind with some common sense and general understanding. Analyzed the whole issue from a 3rd person point of view eventhough the end of the song grabbed you by the heart aswell. Respect brother!
Check out Joyner Lucas' song, I'm Sorry. That always makes me cry, especially knowing it's based off of his cousin.
That was the first song I heard from Joyner.
@@henrytawnn8694 oh my gawd bro... that's heavy stuff
i remember seeing you on teambagpack forever ago tbh didnt know you made music/youtube!
As a white male who grew up in low income areas, your advice when it comes to how to speak to officers is something even I was taught. Many officers are afraid of low income areas, and I'm sure that only gets heightened when the person doesn't look like them or comes from a culture they didn't grow up in or understand.
I've had run ins with the police as a kid where my parents were completely sober and respectful, yet they treated us all like we were guilty or aggressive simply because they got called out to talk to us about a noise complaint that was us playing music a little loud at 10:01PM
F the police. Corruption since they were created
Still one of my favorite MVs of all time ❤️
Should have got nominated for real..
Love you krizz
Loved the video.
Long time veiwer first time poster. I believe you should do "I'm Not Racist - A Three Side Remix" by Sten Joddi. It includes the Native American side, also. And considering the government trying to take away Birthright Citizenship from Indigenous Peoples I think it is a perfect time. Thank you in advance and keep up the great work.
🔥 🔥 🔥
YO that coffee cup is CRAZY 😂
Joyner is so sick
instantly realized that was a line from The Mask!
When this first dropped it hit hard, actually the first few times I seen it it hit hard. If this ain’t make you feel something then I’m concerned for you.
I’ve got lotssssss to say being a white guy who grew up in the suburbs n ended up in places like queensbridge and Kensington, was the “white guy” on quite a few sports teams where I had to fight quicker than I did in prison. My story and my opinions arnt that important…….but what we need is more people like yourself. Bravo sir
Knowledge is power people need to talk things out more
Enjoy your reflections on your reviews. Joyner is amazing with this. He ia able to have you suddenly extremely feel several emotions within just a few minutes. SUBSCEIBED!
I can't help but breathe hard and cry every time at the end I wish it's how it was how it could be it may be just a just a dream.
Kids being taught critical thinking skills and looking at each other as Americans rather than a group based in skin, culture, religion is how everybody wins. My opinion
Krizz the White Juggalos loved yall lol
I grew up in Savannah, Georgia. From K-12 I went to predominantly Black schools and so the majority of my friends were Black. I never thought color was the most interesting thing about a person so it never occurred to me to worry about it. The 70’s and 80’s seemed less segregated to me but maybe that was just my privilege to not have to worry about it.
We’re all the human race and imo the amount of melanin should only determine how much sun screen to use.
The song is jarring because it’s not language I use, though I certainly grew up with people who used that hard r. There’s other things that bother me about the song but what you said about just having a conversation with people will usually give you an understanding that you won’t get otherwise. ❤
I grew up in Georgia as well, I had friends that were white, black, latino, ect. It didn't matter, we weren't racist. I only heard racial slurs from adults as a child. Being honest though, I did see a lot of bad behaviors come from some black kids, and I would stay away from the ones that behaved that way. I figure most problems come from the parents and how they are treating their children. I didn't have to be racist like the adults, and those kids didn't have to behave bad either, it's a choice... but it can be a form of 'cry of help' as well! Don't let your children take on your bad behaviors or the cycle will continue!
❤❤❤
"How to behave" hits the nail on the head. I'm an old man and as I look back to the 60's, 70's, etc., what I see is not an increase in racism but a decline in civility, and good manners. Little things like saying "thank you", "you're welcome," "excuse me," and just being polite. Instead, we want everyone to know how miserable and insecure we have become by refusing to be kind and respectful. Respectful of the elderly, respectful of women, the infirmed, the children, the cops, the teachers, the person at the check out counter, the people in the cars on the road... mostly, we need to have lost our self respect. With self respect comes knowing "how to behave," and being kind. Just an OG's opinion...
I'm not black, but I also received the "how to behave around cops" talk with my parents. I grew up in Vallejo, though and the cops out in the Crest were on edge. I think the cop talk is a cultural thing more than a race thing, and overall I feel like it's good advice regardless of your skin color, upbringing or neighborhood. Respect goes both ways, and every time I treat the police with respect, I get the same respect back, and every time I act a fool I get treated like a fool. I think every child should get the cop talk, what's more I feel like every child should be taught to understand how respect works. Be polite. It's okay to ask questions, just be polite about it. That's all that matters.
11:54 POW👏ER👏FUL👏‼️‼️‼️
As a white man, I worshipped black celebrities and rappers while I was growing up, and went to Krizz Kaliko concerts from as young as 15. I can see it from both sides but I also don’t. I see it from how I was raised. My parents were good to keep that racist shit out of our house. And I now I understand that black people experience things that I simply will never not experience. Facts.
This is a great song!
*Pulling out my soapbox* You don’t have to be the one being oppressed to see the oppression… the harm doesn’t have to be against you to know it’s wrong. Silence is condoning violence. I stand for my people of all races. I fight for a better tomorrow in every today. 😮💨 but we ALL must hold ourselves accountable… for creating stereotypes… for being a stereotype… Grace & Compassion can, will, is saving this world❣️ what we aren’t changing, we are choosing. ❤️🩹☀️🌱🌻✨♾️
10:50 We need a series on this
You reminded me of a story of me and my girl and some friends getting stopped by the police. We were at the the corner store just eating food in my car. The cops came and thought we were smoking or whatever. I tried to explain it calmly then my buddy got mouthy. Suddenly we all are on sitting on the curb. They are searching my car. Asking me were the dope is at…they thought I was selling drugs to my minority friends. A Cambodian a Somali and my friend mookie. He’s so black I used to call him purple. Anyways we are on the curb and a big spider walks onto my girl. She jumps and screams. Now we got guns to our heads. My Mom pulls up to the store to get some food too. And starts cussing out the cops. We ended getting let go. Mom is still yelling at them as they leave. Then we all sat on the curb and ate.
I grew up in TN, next to the Smokey Mtns. I knew 2 black people growing up. Both worked at BK. Felicia and Nate. Me and Nate played Ball, well he played, ha, and Felicia went to her Birthday Party had a great time at work, this was back in 84. Never heard my parents use the N word. Joined the Army in 85 and met NUMEROUS Black men and women. Long story short, the 3 greatest men I ever knew was, 1. My Dad and the other 2 were Black men from the Army. Both were 8-12 years older. I think anyone, Black or White that has a conception of the other race would be amazed if they KNEW them. The Military should be required for everyone, then you would KNOW people. Now during my 12 years, many blacks, white hispanics and so on were a$$ clowns and I didn't like them. Not because of the skin color, they were just a POS. GET TO KNOW SOMEONE, BEFORE YOU JUDGE THEM.
A little inside info, the 2 people in the video are friends in real life
Treat others with respect and love and you don't even have to come to an understanding. Our difference is what makes people who they are and what keeps to world going round. Of course not everybody that's the same race is the same but that's the best part about it, you don't have to be. I love Mexicans for their strong sense of family and hospitality, they fed me when my parents could not and are some of the funniest people i have ever met, I love African Americans for their tenacity and comradery, they stood up for me when my white friends did not and they taught me confidence and how to dress better and supply like 90% of the music i listen too and music means a lot too me. I love my various Asians friends for their boldness and honestly and giving hearts. As the majority we have to knock each other down and humble each other and I still have the headphones my Asian friend gave me in 5th grade... i also still chase the food that their parent made for us hoping someday il have it again but i dont even know what it was called...please Vietnamese people help me x(. I love my Somali and Muslim friends for despite me not believing in god they still made me one of their own and invited me to their lunch table, when no one else did and i had no friends and when tensions were at their highest. I love my various foreign exchange friends because as an American its extremely refreshing to talk to someone who hasn't been in the echo chamber that is American politics their whole life. As a white American i couldn't even name something unique that connects all white people besides being white and that is.... depressing and why i look to other races. At the rate in 1000 years from now when everybody is wearing the same clothes and we are all the same shade of grey and we all live together on an even worst rock flying through space and we all merged into a singular culture is when what it means to be human will be lost. Just love everyone and don't even give the hateful people a second of your time and also shout out to every race that i haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet. This is the value that reaction channels bring. I want to see how someone different than me reacts to it because its interesting, challenges your beliefs, how you think and gives you a small glimpse into their mind. Which helps keep me feel connected and grounded
Have you seen Joyner Lucas - Devil's Work? 🙂
Bizzle’s response song is very cool too:
ua-cam.com/video/TDtLXCpt_Oc/v-deo.htmlsi=EuORNLKSZLTY0_Ns
There is good and bad no matter which color, race, religion, no matter what.
I was brought up with certain family members trying to get me to be racist but, I was able to see the good and the bad.
I wish more people could see the good.
🤘🤘
Eminems castle and arose, it's 2 songs that are basically the same song have to listen to them both castle first then arose. Thanks for what you are doin. Respect
I’m sorry by Joyner a good one
Once we all accept we are human and stop building imaginary walls between between the cultures. We will all be united.
I'm white, my mother's maiden name is Garcia but I appear Scottish. I got the talk, turned off the car, put my hands at 10 to 2, and complied. But I still got a gun pulled out on me for stumbling out of a car high in a drug rug. Just because I look more Scottish doesn't mean I wasn't subject to scrutiny and hardship. I'm an ex adict and a 33 year old pre med neuroscience student. I'm also a quarter Spanish and a quarter Sicilian. It isn't just the black community that rattles with this conversation but it is definitely more immediate for those more impacted. I'm from New England, neighboring the raggies of Winstead, so I understand the culture.
What it boils down to in the United States massive pot of hatred is how we all felt as little kids. Remember how we all felt BEFORE we hit our teens when we would kick it with anyone our age because we wanted to play ?? Either in school or around our way ?? We would just walk up to another kid just to say... hey do you wanna play ?? There was no judgement. There was no fear. All we had was praise for anyone that was on front of our place. Then we grew up and stopped seeing the plot, of the story that united all of us from the blood. Now society just lives for what is yours is mine and for the homeless I don't have the time. So lets take it back to the vibe when we were kids, with no bills to pay and we just wanted to play. That is my deep feel. Not what someone makes up on a reel. -- By yours, Frankie, from the NYC.
Huge video Krizz, nothing but love for you, for Joyner etc. I hate all the systematic racism. Being white I wish we could just all love each other. But like you said. I do get it from both sides. People are to blind to look past the stereotypes
I love how this song and "Racism" by Adam point to issues we have in society that are perpetrated by many variables, but sadly I feel like so many people missed the message.
Hell, I've been pulled over in my own neighborhood just because I looked like I didn't belong because I'm "white." I live in west Phoenix which is predominantly Hispanic and African. This stuff is crazy.
Even as a white guy, growing up in NY my father had that same conversation with me about cops. Mainly from his experiences and because he knew I had a problem with authority in the same way he did. It wasn't an anti-cop sentiment, but more of a "don't do something fuckin' stupid statement."
I'm in my 30's now and on more than 1 occasion I talked back to the cops..but only because I knew I was 100% in the right and they were abusing their power. Especially one time when I had my car illegally searched. I started making him search my entire trunk and under the wheel well because I knew the car was clean. I just happened to be pulled over in a bad neighborhood.
He called me a dickhead when he finally walked away haha
Sadly at 80+ years old the seeds planted in my lifetime grew the weeds that strangled generations with dividing conquer and will continue to do so until we as individuals pull the weeds out of our gardens and see each other for the unique beauty we each have. It’s easier to control people When you put them against each other so they don’t recognize the bigger game being run on them.
You my friend are very wise 💯
@@v3rent702 Thank you kindly.
In my opinion until we as a whole stop using labels in front of the word American then this will never end
U should check us natives music out his name is illiano hes from Canada and check out blu berry his music his fire thats the rez music native rap music ❤❤
Joyner Lucas Devil’s Work
Love the channel🙏
What about Hopsin I'll mind 5??👌
The most powerful part of the song is actually after with words on the screen. If more people realized and understood that, it would actually bring us together. Media is probably to blame for a majority of the enforcement of these ideas/observations/stereotypes. I do also want to say that black people arent the only ones who have to point out how to move when it comes to being pulled over. Im white but ive never been accused of it lol. Apparently Cherokee Indian + Black Irish with dome splashes of european dna makes someone who can pass for Latino or middle-eastern descent. 😅. It's strange sometimes, like sometimes i wonder if i should have been some kind of Agent who goes undercover because ive been categorized as everything but what I am. My brother and i got pulled over once gor no reason other than a little swerving bc the trick was out of alignment. That constituted us getting out of the vehicle, having the vehicle searched, another cop shows up and the first guy pulled everything out. Then they tell us we meet the description of two guys who escaped custody of something... BS is what it was. Idk what the purpose was really, they could have just been bored for all i know but it didn't feel right. One thing i wanted to point out was the videography in the video, the shots with the pole separating the two guys was genius. Joyner is a genius for the two perspective songs he has made and they always entertain.
Gotta check out
