What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you like the hoodie I'm wearing support the channel & garb yours now 🤟www.knoxhillmusic.com/shop/knox-hill-adjusted-hoodie
Day 3: Yo Knox, love the channel and work on the breakdowns. I would love for you to react to more Coast Contra songs[Contradictions, family, activated, straightening freestyle, The realest freestyle, Queen and Slim, disruptive freestyle] on the channel please my brother.
What really gets me most about this song is that Kendrick KNEW every single person who'd been following the beef would be tuning in - this is THE song to listen to on the album, the one everyone's thinking about, purely because of the beef. Look at other peoples' reactions; a lot of them say something like "oh, here it comes, this is what we've been waiting for" once they get to this one - And what does he do with that opportunity? Where does he direct the eyes of the world? He talks about his roots. He talks about struggle. He connects with the old heads who've been with him forever, and the new people that only started listening because of the beef. "This is where I'm from, this is what I've gone through, and these are the people who've had my back every step of the way." He shifts the spotlight away from drake, away from current events, and turns it toward his day ones, his team, giving them the recognition and respect they deserve. It's such an amazing move that I can't help but think it was done intentionally.
Kendrick just keeps giving us master classes. He’s a good guy. I pray God covers him. There are a lot of egos in the industry that are jealous of his creative genius.
that's such a fine reflection of his intrinsic character. you can tell what really matters to people depending on what they choose to uplift with their voice and influence. i think it speaks volumes on kendrick's mindset for him to stay on task despite how many of his own colleagues disrespected him out of envy, pride or vanity. my respect for him has grown exponentially ever since gnx dropped, and it was already pretty high before the beef peaked. this isn't even about the beef anymore, it's about culture and youth fighting back against bad cycles propagated by the industry. i hope everyone's paying attention to these little details, especially newer fans / listeners who don't really know his older work. i wasn't a hardcore fan by any means (in the past) but now i'm just so in awe of him. i don't even have the words to explain. yeah, he's still making moves that guarantee he'll stay on top as far as his public image goes, except that's not the point because all of those moves come from raw talent and authenticity. wishing the best for k-dot, his family and friends.
1) Reclaiming the title from that lame diss track was a perfect move 2) One of Kendrick's all time best song, Expected since it's part of "The Heart" series
Truthfully, it would have stung more if he went to the heart part 7, leaving that weak ass track to forever be a step in a new listeners "The Heart" journey. And you get 1-5 heartfelt, amazing writing, then you get to that other dudes track and realize how terrible he is all over again. 😂
@@KakelaTron that's a damn good point, i would've been so dejected if drake's rip-off part 6 was all we had, and it started playing right after pt. 5 😭 knowing how hard spotify pushed scorpion, maybe they'll start pushing that shit now so drake won't cry about it in his 3rd lawsuit, and it'll get auto-added to my playlist
@izamalcadosa2951 I'm familiar with the original. My friends and I would sing on the way home from school. I'm an elder millennial, all the samples he used took me back to my youth.
I love the fact that Kendrick just went about his business as it drake never made a the heart part 6 i think thats was the best thing he could have done
@@sconner1453 I’m definitely the exception then because I’m only 16 but I think this might be my favorite album mostly cause the songs either combine amazing storytelling with borderline angelic flows like in Luther, Gloria, and Heart part 6. Or it’s an absolute banger like TV Off, Hey now, Wacced out murals, and Squabble up. My favorite song on this album is definitely Reincarnated because it combines the flows with the storytelling while still having amazing energy throughout the song
Even though i adore the amount of bangers on this album , Heart pt 6 and reincarnated are my favorites because they are what i listen to kendrick for: incredible lyrics, great storytelling and fantastic production
LOVE how kendrick exhibits his versatility on this album. Just his thoughts based on what mood he's in today! So random and so ♊. This is basically a sample of all his previous albums. Something for everybody to SILENCE the critiques❤ 40% west coast/turn up/new talent features (squabble up, hey now, gnx, peekaboo, tv off.) 40% introspection/emotion/storytelling(man at the garden, wacced out mural , reincarnated, heart pt 6, gloria)..20% just vibing/chill/ride to it w/a red CUP(Luther, dodger blue)...SUCH a gemini move.. chef's kiss Dot.
I can’t WAIT to see your Gloria breakdown. I have literally cried listening to it because of the vulnerability and how much of his inner life he’s sharing.
Truth. I been watching this man's reactions for sometime now, I have some knowledge on the old school. But definitely not as much as this man, definitely helps be that second set of ears to catch all the things I missed. Also recently started listening to HIS music. Hi Knox. Keep that shit up brother. You're great. Breakdowns and music. ❤ Much love.
This song is an insanely great way as displaying Kendrick and how much he will always respect his roots. His friends even let him borrow clothes and serve as hypemen in his early stages, beautiful song
The subject matter of the song; brotherhood, family and friendship, almost feel like an extension of him reclaiming the Heart series. Like he's saying these are things you can't have.
Hearing this song almost brought a tear to my eye. The sample is my all time favorite SWV song. But the story telling, the nostalgia, the bonds…..Kenny gave us his heart fr fr
KNOX your HipHop knowledge is a sure sign You GET the culture 🫶🏽Yess. Use your heart and not your eyes. Love this flow Kendrick, Bless your heart (6). The real one
What makes this even deeper… the original record “Use Your Heart” by swv was written and produced by none other than Pharrell Williams 🤯 This man’s calculation can’t be quantified.
This album IMO is on the No-Skips tier but when i came across Heart pt 6 track and heard those few sample notes i went "SWV - USE YOUR HEART?! LFG!!" and instantly felt like i was back in the 90s ... This dude is gifted 🤟🏾 now this is the REAL Heart part 6 song 😎🥃
The quality of this beautiful storytelling masterpiece compared to Drakes fake and awful version of his heart pt6 is insanely different and we know that drake COULD NEVERRR
@@kayeezycop I think this is a perfect example of the difference, this is not a song about Kendrick's come up, this is about the *people* who made it possible for him to get to the place he is now and especially his friends from black hippy, and his admission that the group didn't work out because of him. There's just no comparison man.
@@wumbojet you literally just described what a ‘come up’ means lmao. The main reason people fuck with Drake is because he’s able to create an atmosphere where you feel like you’re going on a journey with him with songs like Tuscan leather, away from home, the ride, etc.
IMO this song was the biggest shot on the album against drake. He could have made this part of the general track list but giving it that name is him making a direct contrast with drakes version. This is a song of unity, respect, and acknowledgement of his need to have been helped by others to get where he is. He also leans heavily on how little he had growing up and how small of a chance he actually had of making it. Contrast these with everything he’s said about drake
I don’t know why…this song instantly brought me back to Biggie Smalls… Sky is the limit, 97/98? The flow, storytelling…the nostalgia ❤…Bravo Kendrick. Bravo 👏🏿 👏🏿
One of my favorite songs on the album. It is so nostalgic but also therapeutic, calming, and inspiring. I saw the effect it had on many reactions to this song. It put many of them in a peaceful, contemplative place. ❤😊
18:14 that that last verse seem like an explanation, gratification homage, and an apology to his brothers at TDE, maybe for how he prioritized himself at the expense of the crew. And also how he jump shit to start his own almost like a sorry, not sorry but I had to grow.
I loved hearing Kendrick give Ab-Soul his flowers in that first verse, his pen is truly elite when it comes to the wordplay and his new album Soul Burger was one of my favourites this year
I used to work in Jack in the Box in the 80's. I didn't know the chain of restaurants still exist. Memories and tears. Thank you @KDot. 🙏🏾 Great breakdown as usual, @Knox Hill
This album and this song, in particular, is making people reminisce about their own hip hop history. It's all about the culture, the history and the love of Hip Hop. Much needed... much appreciated.🙏🏾🙏🏾 As someone who grew up in Brooklyn, NYC, the east coast, west coast hip hop culture has a lot of similarities! I am loving the journey going down "memory lane"! This album, this song, is on repeat. 🎧🎧🥰🥰✊🏾✊🏾
Jack Antonoff and Pharrell Williams co-produced this track!! The original SWV version was produced by the Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) back in 1997, Knox!!
I just think this shows how true a musician Dot is to hip hop. No shade to Cole or Drake, but instead of creating content to pay homage he creates music.
This might be one of my favourite Kendrick songs. I love the introspection. It’s such a beautiful way to take back the Heart Part 6. We all should reflect more often, it’s so healthy.
How did Drake think he could beat this with Dr Seuss rhymes and lies, bro this guy is just a poet story teller, author, battle rapper. No Drake song has the amount of art compared to this Album alone
@espada7997 yeah because he raps on good beats with in your face bars, don't have to do any work to understand, much easier to get into, these days everything has to be simple or it'll be ignored that's why Kendrick had to lower his standards bare wise in Not Like Us so people can get it instead of 6:16 with the divinity bars and wisdom, and Euphoria littered with entendre.
I rarely comment but I've been watching for a while now and I just wanted to say how impressive you are. The amount of knowledge you have about the culture is so overwhelming and I am so glad you decided to do breakdowns alongside your own music. Thank you for educating us all!
@@KnoxHillyou're amazing. I've recently started actually listening to your music and not just breakdowns. And you're really good at that as well, I don't know why I was surprised. 😅
"jack in the box", double entendre -- "jack-in-the-box" = l.a. fast food burgers in the studio "jack in the box" = jack antonoff in the producer box in the studio
Again now I understand this song 😂 Knox quick question can you please make pink hats with logo KH because you have a lot of women supporters also I would definitely buy it and hands down the best reaction channel on UA-cam and in addition Knox you're my GOAT 🐐 OF REACTIONS sending blessings keep being great and being the example of a great 🎤 rapper/ reaction channel 🙏💙💪💯
@thegreenrose147 i looked at the sample for SWV song and it says it is the sample from of it don't turn you on (then leave it alone). But when I heard their song I heard Michael's song sped up a little. That is my take and of it was part of the sample, then yes it is another layer
I had this idea that the most ice cold retort to BBL drizzy's "The Heart Part VI" would be for kdot to do exactly this - drop his own part vi as if he couldn't be BOTHERED to acknowledge the Drake nonsense 😂
Like Voldemort BBL Drizzy Heart 6 should never be mentioned. However he said when we getting to the FACTS? KDot definitely delivered FACTS and nothing but FACTS 👍🏿🇬🇧
Knox, thank you for what you do so passionately. I truly hope one day you get to collab and work with Kendrick. I fee like it will be epic.❤ So much love from Tanzania 🇹🇿❤❤❤
This also might serve as Kendrick's response to Drake's claim that he made him...when Drake said "your first number one i had to put it in your hand"...Kendrick is painting a picture of his come up
Yesssss I am ready 😊 Happy Thanksgiving eve.. love the SWV vibes so smooth 😊 yess you got that part that Drake trys to say there was an issues with TDE, but this shows they goooooo way back and this more than a group. Annndd, yes, the B Pumper . Now that was so funny.. awww the good old days 😂 Also Pharrell and Chad produces the SWV track!!
Hey Knox, I suggest you check out SWV's Tiny Desk Concert from this June. They still sound great. I heard they re-recorded 'Use Your Heart' for this album, because the voices sound more mature.
Just know that you’ve taught me so much! At 48, I feel like I know my fair share of R&B, and I like to match my knowledge to yours. Have to admit, you got me a couple of times. You are so knowledgeable and passionate about music, and your videos are a pleasure to watch. My hit of serotonin for this dreary morning in Houston. ❤
[Chorus: SWV & Coko] Use your heart and not your eyes (Baby, just relax your mind) If you got time, then I got time (Yeah, yeah) Free your thoughts and watch them fly Use your heart and not your eyes (Mm-hmm)
This is one of my favorites. So many connections to his development and the people in the hip-hop community that influenced or help nurture the artist(s) we see now. ❤❤❤
It's people like you who bridge the gap in the people man you break kendrick raps down..and really make it black history for the youth thanks so much. Just don't change on us like drake 😂😂😂😂

CHANT (Macklemore ft. Tones and I) is one of my favourite hip hop songs ever. I'm baffled it's more more popular

Use your heart and not your eyes can also be that Kendrick is saying he walks by faith and not by sight.
Good observation‼️
Great analysis 🎉
Oh, I like this analysis.
Love this!!
Blind faith. Biblical references everywhere. Love Kendrick's pen.
That SWV sample is everything ,this track feels like I'm back in high school in the 90s
Warmed my heart that first time I heard it. Been on repeat for days.
The original version was produced by the Neptunes back in 1997 (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo). The Track is pure fire!!
@izamalcadosa2951 I'm familiar with the original. My friends and I would sing on the way home from school. I'm an elder millennial, all the samples he used took me back to my youth.
I love all the rnb samples on this album
Same
I love the fact that Kendrick just went about his business as it drake never made a the heart part 6 i think thats was the best thing he could have done
💯
To do otherwise would have given Drake too much credit or has too much impact.
I also like how he dropped the "The" and changed "Part" to "pt" to make sure no one confuses the two.
a masterful "fuck you" in its own right
I have always loved how Kendrick moves.
Also fun fact: Chad Hugo and Pharrell produced the SWV- Use your Heart original ♥️
Further letting drake know ILL INHERIT the beef by using a Pharrell production on the REAL Heart pt6
I didn’t realize they’d worked with SWV before. Thx for the fun fact!
I should have read through before posted this 👍🏿
It was the Neptunes first hit on the top 100
@@NikNik0123On the Right Here Human Nature remix it's Pharrell that says SWV.
As a GenXer (just barely), I feel like this GNX album is a celebration for us too. Being a teenager in the 90’s was so great man….
I feel the same!!!! 🥰🥰
It was. He paid homage to the rappers we listened to throughout the whole album. I really enjoyed it.
This is why I think people under 25 think this album is mid. There's no back history for some.

This song makes me cry it just touches my soul…
Pherell and the neptunes produced this beat for SWV also
They also wrote the song .
Lots of East Coast homage on this album but as he said… he’s the king of NY and King of the coast. One hand, he juggles em both 🤷🏻♂️🐐
And he said he's the king of ny on control. He saw that he would be living in nyc and be the king of rap. No lies!

@@StylzGTNTExactly! 😂
Facts. Kendrick is so cerebral for this dismantling of Drake bruh.

Probably my favorite song on the album. Always can appreciate the art of storytelling🙏🏼
I couldnt wait till you got to this man this my favorite song on the album by far
The sample is also Michael Jackson's lady in my life which is where SWV got the sample for that song
Damn and there goes another layer to the beef, whether it was intentional or not 😂 Kendrick is one of one 🙌🏽
@thegreenrose147 i looked at the sample for SWV song and it says it is the sample from of it don't turn you on (then leave it alone). But when I heard their song I heard Michael's song sped up a little. That is my take and of it was part of the sample, then yes it is another layer
I had this idea that the most ice cold retort to BBL drizzy's "The Heart Part VI" would be for kdot to do exactly this - drop his own part vi as if he couldn't be BOTHERED to acknowledge the Drake nonsense 😂
This album is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and very beneficial to realigning the natural and spiritual realms!!
Like Voldemort BBL Drizzy Heart 6 should never be mentioned. However he said when we getting to the FACTS? KDot definitely delivered FACTS and nothing but FACTS 👍🏿🇬🇧
Such humble beginnings
Knox, thank you for what you do so passionately. I truly hope one day you get to collab and work with Kendrick. I fee like it will be epic.❤ So much love from Tanzania 🇹🇿❤❤❤
This is my favorite song on the album. I've listened to this track the most. Great analysis, Knox!
This is my favorite song on the album ❣️ I love the whole project. Go Kendrick
Can't believe we're almost done, it's been great
The GNX album has a celebration feel to it. Much love ❤️
This also might serve as Kendrick's response to Drake's claim that he made him...when Drake said "your first number one i had to put it in your hand"...Kendrick is painting a picture of his come up
Yesssss I am ready 😊 Happy Thanksgiving eve.. love the SWV vibes so smooth 😊 yess you got that part that Drake trys to say there was an issues with TDE, but this shows they goooooo way back and this more than a group. Annndd, yes, the B Pumper . Now that was so funny.. awww the good old days 😂
Also Pharrell and Chad produces the SWV track!!
Good morning! 6:31 in CA right now.
Didn't ask lol
Hey Knox, I suggest you check out SWV's Tiny Desk Concert from this June. They still sound great. I heard they re-recorded 'Use Your Heart' for this album, because the voices sound more mature.
Just know that you’ve taught me so much! At 48, I feel like I know my fair share of R&B, and I like to match my knowledge to yours. Have to admit, you got me a couple of times. You are so knowledgeable and passionate about music, and your videos are a pleasure to watch. My hit of serotonin for this dreary morning in Houston. ❤
Absolutely love this song! 🔥🔥🔥
‘Use Your Heart And Not Your Eye’
[Wayne]
Knox , cooking tomorrow with ease listening to these college levels breakdowns will always be appreciated.....🙏🏽
I live for every moment in this battle🤝🏽
[Chorus: SWV & Coko]
Use your heart and not your eyes (Baby, just relax your mind)
If you got time, then I got time (Yeah, yeah)
Free your thoughts and watch them fly
Use your heart and not your eyes (Mm-hmm)
Yeah he slightly reworded the chorus changing the words "Baby just relax and ride". Lelee from the Group showed KDot love for using the chorus.
My favorite song on the album. I got emotional when I first heard it. Excellent breakdown Knox.
Love it Knox ❤
Appreciate you!
This song hits haaaard
This song is beautiful
This is one of my favorites. So many connections to his development and the people in the hip-hop community that influenced or help nurture the artist(s) we see now. ❤❤❤
It's people like you who bridge the gap in the people man you break kendrick raps down..and really make it black history for the youth thanks so much.
Just don't change on us like drake
😂😂😂😂
Amazing album.
You’re all about justice😘 Rockin like this is your job!!!!
The subliminal shots at the start of these are iconic
Kendricks lyrical rhythmn and meter is just magical
