Just realized that I skipped STFU 🤦🏾♀️ I’ll make a separate reaction video for that song in the future. For now, enjoy the video and let’s chop it up in the comments 😄🤘🏾✨💯🔥
This was my exact thoughts when I first heard Comme Des Garcon. I said “as soon as miss rona gets it together and these clubs open, the gays are going to love this song”
I just love that this album talks about a variety of themes that aren't usually talked about in pop music: friendship, consumerism, micro-agressions, depression, self-love, cultural displacement, family, hereditary pain and etc. There's not a single track about an ex-boyfriend and I think that's amazing.
@@DVD-hf6wl Yeah, I was freaking out when I noticed the Final Fantasy fanfare in the chorus. She described how FFIX is her favourite game in one interview. This girl is awesome! :D
This is such good content. You can really tell that you’re an expert in your field. Like, not calling out anyone in particular, but there are so many cis white straight men on youtube who think they know everything about music. You clearly have so much knowledge, experience, and passion, and I admire that so much
That really means a lot! Yes if only people would open their doors...there are tons of knowledgeable black women in music...it’s just that no one has ever been given the chance to really go there. This industry is missing our touch. But until then, I will continue making more vids like these for lovely people such as yourself! Thank you for tuning in and for the observation! ❤️✨💯🙌🏾🔥
Yeah no name drops but they say the most obvious things that even is a diverse and attentive music listener who doesn't know shi- about music can tell Like you say you're a producer so talk your talk And this video was such a breath of fresh air just like this album
It´s so interesting that you mentioned Gaga in "Who´s gonna save U now?", A Star is Born actually inspired Rina to make that "stadium" like song, and Rina is a HUGE Gaga fan, both queens ♡
I have a list of albums I Disagree- Poppy Hot Pink- Doja Cat Norman Fucking Rockwell- Lana Del Rey Chromatica- Lady Gaga K-12 and after school EP- Melanie Martinez Pang- Caroline Polachek Last Year Was Weird Vol.2- Tkay Maidza Infinitely Ordinary- The Wrecks Lady Wood- Tove Lo Dopamine- BØRNS I'm Your Empress Of- Empress of Born To Die Paradise Edition- Lana Del Rey ARTPOP- Lady Gaga Melodrama- Lorde That's the top of my head
@@kojikali3381 I disagree is similar to this album because there’s just a lot of unorthodox sounds and structures and that would be interesting to see. Also Melodrama is a good album lyrically
When Rina talked about making this record, she spoke about working with one producer to create a cohesive record that plays from beginning to end. And her samples are amazing, for Tokyo Love Hotel, she sampled the sounds of the hotel she was in and worked it into the production.
Yes I've been waiting for this one. What I really like is how different all the songs are genre wise and the lyrics go with the sounds. Like dynasty is about breaking generational trauma so it sounds really big , XS is a song about capitalism and a satire of those pop songs about spending so it's 2000s pop with rock elements. Etc.
I love the reactions to the "drop" of bad friend, the emptiness really goes with the message on that first chorus and it's kind of an element of surprise, she does that through the album but in this song is very noticeable
so good! thank you koji kali for teaching me new things and opening my ears to hear all of the nuances and artistry within all of your reviews. you’re definitely helping so many of us and these videos are so fun
That’s so cool! I want to keep it fun and interesting for you guys! I’ve sat through lectures before and they are obviously no fun lol. But thank you for tuning in 😂👍✨💯🔥
i'm only 4 minutes into this video and i'm already subscribed. you seem to really, know your stuff - and it's so much more interesting seeing people react to things when they actually know what they're talking about! the second you started talking about the low pass filter on the snare in dynasty i was sold 😭✨
Ahh man! I appreciate you for tuning in to this video. You know, I said if I ever started a UA-cam channel, it would have to be something with substance. I appreciate music and love sharing it with those who appreciate music as well! 😄🙏🏾💯✨
Her vocals at the beginning of the interlude really remind me of Utada Hikaru, who was a famous Japanese pop singer in the early 2000s. Really fun to see various musical influences in a single album!
I haven’t heard the album yet but the first clip of Dynasty gave me chills. I love the change up to the rock; when my favorite genres come together I just-😩🙌🏾 I’m excited to see your reaction and then go listen for my impression 🙇🏾♀️ Ooohhh Paradisin’ might be my favorite track. I’m cleaning while listening and I perked up when you mentioned video game and you’re right! It sounds like a boss battle and the MODULATION 😩😩😩 I know my mom hates me because I just screamed. 80s music is my hype music....the ending. Yeah. She took me there ☝🏾😌
Right?! Yeah the modulation and the synths she uses are really dope! 💯🔥✨ LoL wow if her music made you scream then she’s fulfilling her duty as an artist lol 😂 💯🙌🏾
i really like rina sawayama vocally but my first time listening it, I felt very overwhelmed. Watching your review/ watching you dissect this album helped me appreciate it. I appreciate your mind and ear and I really enjoy your content.
Wow I appreciate your time, thank you so much for tuning in. I’m glad that you were able to understand it on a deeper level. Dissecting it can make things make so much more sense since there are layers. Glad to be of help! ✨😩🙌🏾
I never leave comments but you easily have the best production analysis I've seen in a reaction video AND the best references (Van Halen, Cyndi Lauper, Cascade, 'Hey Mickey'). I've seen a lot of reactions to this album bc it fascinates me, and you without a doubt have the most informative one. Subscribed because this is excellency
Wow thank you so much Kurt! I like to be as detailed as possible. Thank you for taking time to tune in bud and for the sub! There’s definitely more on the way ☺️👍✨
Your vids are suuuper duuper informative! As someone who’s always been interested in making/producing music but intimidated by even trying to find a place to begin, having albums I admire like Rina’s broken down and explained in how it’s layered and what may be going into the thought processes behind these records helps my understanding in a much diffrent way. Especially with how knowledgeable you are/descriptive in describing the filters/effects placed on vocals and instruments throughout even the background. Thank you for putting out content like this, sharing your craft and knowledge with us!
Thank you for reviewing the full album! Later on it would be great for you to review her EP RINA! Or some Ariana/Britney, I’m a sucker for learning how they make pop music! You’re vibe is amazing and the reviews are awesome!
i'm so glad i've found your channel! i know nothing about music production so getting to see an expert comment on all the details and nuances on the music is super interesting and it lets me appreciate the music better, so thank you!
Damn, you hitted all the right words, all the right description, all the right mind-set when I listened to this album several times... And you got it on the first time listen to it... Amazing!
Ok, suddenly you're my favourite producer reactor?? Like, you think you can come into my life and just do that!? Deff a subscribe! I'm so tired of producer reactors just naming chords, or whipping out a guitar to play along. Your insights are honestly such a breath of fresh air and can't wait to watch more reactions!
i didn't hear you react to the bridge during bad friend with the gospel like breakdown? idk maybe i missed it but i was really excited to see how you felt about that part in particular because as a production enthusiast, that was my favorite part of the entire album. i just thought that it tied the song together and turned it from outstanding to a masterpiece
I love your album reactions and the way you analyze them and you make me listen to music in a different way. And maybe could you react to the album Women in Music part 3 by the Grammy nominated sister trio Haim...I would love to see you analyze it. The album came out this summer and I would LOVE to hear your opinions and thoughts❤️
Hey I really love this artist especially cause we both are RINA’S yasssss this queen is hot. I love your whole vibe and your reactions to every song that you do. Wow! She is hot 🥵 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Koji you are so beautiful I just love looking at your facial expressions. Keep living for music queen 💥💥💥💥
I''m so glad you reacted to SAWAYAMA, its an amazing album!! Loved the video :) I'd love to see you react to her EP RINA and some of her singles, they're less experimental and more pop-based but still so good. She sampled some of the songs from her EP at the end of Fuck This World (interlude)
i just found this video and i absolutely loved your reaction! your comments were very insightful and it seems like you really now about what you're talking about, great video
When you said who’s gonna save you now sounds very gaga and it actually was inspired by ali from a star is born which is gaga... you know koji is a music expert and knows what she’s talking about🤍🖤
On the track 'Bad Friend' I'm pretty sure the "I'm so good at crashing in..." part was made with a vocoder rather than a backup male voice. Regardless, I really liked your imput about the contrast in the voices! This is the first reaction of yours that I've watched and you just got a new subscriber :)
No worries. And the beauty about music is that we interpret it in different ways. My ears sometimes recognizes instruments as something else for some reason lol, it happens. I appreciate the sub tho! 😂🙌🏾✨👍
Literally watched like 10 reactions to this album and I truly enjoyed yours the most. I have no knowledge of music production but the way you explain or describe things really make it accessible for us no-knowledge people, so thanks for that! Can't wait to watch more reactions from you. 🖤🖤
I’m so glad I found your channel! I’ve started producing my own stuff at home and this is just such educational and interesting content - makes me feel inspired to try out lots of new things!🤘✨ Do you have any links to things you’ve produced yourself? Would love to hear!
Iv been WAITING for this review 😭💖 im watching it rn, i know you will like the album 🥺 Also « comme des garçons » its french mean « like the boys » 😁 If u want more dop production u can react to aquarius by Tinashe 💖 Love from paris 💖💖
Much love to you! Thank you for helping me pronounce the title lol. My American is showing 🙈🤷🏾♀️ and thank you so much for the recommendation, Tinashe is awesome! ❤️💯🔥👍
You should do a reaction of Caroline Polachek's debut album Pang. The production mixed with her angelic voice is wonderful to hear. I'm sure you'd love it 🌬️
@@kojikali3381 she's really, really experimental but the album has R&B-ish vibes, some electro pop, art pop. She even uses her voice as an instrument sometimes. Her lyrics and visuals are amazing as well. One of the best albums I've heard this year (it came out in 2019). Critically acclaimed! You'd definitely love it💙💙💙💙💙
this was such a fascinating watch! :O your comments throughout the video really helps me to appreciate the production of the album even more. I got sucked into Rina's music this year through SAWAYAMA and I've been hooked on her since lolol. if you get the chance, I would love to hear your thoughts on Rina's other music, esp her EP 'RINA'! :D she also has really great singles. definitely a new subscriber ❤️(and you're right, the gays do love her 😭💕)
Just realized that I skipped STFU 🤦🏾♀️
I’ll make a separate reaction video for that song in the future. For now, enjoy the video and let’s chop it up in the comments 😄🤘🏾✨💯🔥
you should watch the music video for it!
@@arturov4147 Oh yeah, the video really drives the message home.
React to the mv as well!
please react to Little Mix's LM5 album!
please!!!!
"I'm sure the gays love her", girrrll... You're not wrong! ❤️
Yasss! See I know! :D
This was my exact thoughts when I first heard Comme Des Garcon. I said “as soon as miss rona gets it together and these clubs open, the gays are going to love this song”
I heard Elton John was a fan
@@RyanKhieu it was his favourite album of 2020
OMG I LOVE GRACE JONES!!!!
I just love that this album talks about a variety of themes that aren't usually talked about in pop music: friendship, consumerism, micro-agressions, depression, self-love, cultural displacement, family, hereditary pain and etc. There's not a single track about an ex-boyfriend and I think that's amazing.
It is! Really empowering for womxn everywhere! Not everything needs to involve ex boyfriends...but also no shade to the songs that do. 💯🙏🏾✨
The fact that she sampled Beethoven’s 8th piano sonata in C minor in Snakeskin made my classical nerdy heart soooo happy.
😂🙌🏾✨😆👍
@@DVD-hf6wl Yeah, I was freaking out when I noticed the Final Fantasy fanfare in the chorus. She described how FFIX is her favourite game in one interview. This girl is awesome! :D
i love how i feel like i'm getting a history lesson on pop music when i watch your reactions 😭
Yesss I love it! Thank you for tuning in my friend! 😆💯✨
@@kojikali3381 you're welcome! 💛✨

@@kojikali3381 😭😭🥺💕💕🥰😌☺️💕
Frfr I appreciate the album even more bc this reaction made me hear things I didn't notice before
the shade, the shaaaade
Yeah no name drops but they say the most obvious things that even is a diverse and attentive music listener who doesn't know shi- about music can tell
Like you say you're a producer so talk your talk
And this video was such a breath of fresh air just like this album
Shout out to *Clarence Clarity,* the main producer, he's in his own level above everyone else.
Rina and Clarence are a killer duo.
All it takes is a producer that knows what they are doing and a talented vocalist with tonality and then BOOM! A music masterpiece is created :D
The first time I heard Afterlife I knew he was the PRODUCER
@@kojikali3381 You should give his solo stuff a try maybe, Think:Piece is his latest record and it's soooo unique!
@@Greysterization I like No Now a little more but sure, he's powerful.
@@kojikali3381 his solo stuff is amazing too
It´s so interesting that you mentioned Gaga in "Who´s gonna save U now?", A Star is Born actually inspired Rina to make that "stadium" like song, and Rina is a HUGE Gaga fan, both queens ♡
Oh wow! Well there you go lol! It’s clear in the music, she’s definitely influenced by Gaga 🙏🏾💯✨ Thank you for that info by the way
it also sounds like “Mary Jane Holland” by Lady Gaga, I love Rina sm!
I have a list of albums
I Disagree- Poppy
Hot Pink- Doja Cat
Norman Fucking Rockwell- Lana Del Rey
Chromatica- Lady Gaga
K-12 and after school EP- Melanie Martinez
Pang- Caroline Polachek
Last Year Was Weird Vol.2- Tkay Maidza
Infinitely Ordinary- The Wrecks
Lady Wood- Tove Lo
Dopamine- BØRNS
I'm Your Empress Of- Empress of
Born To Die Paradise Edition- Lana Del Rey
ARTPOP- Lady Gaga
Melodrama- Lorde
That's the top of my head
Whoaaa! lol alright I see you with the hella options lol Thank you for your request :D
@@kojikali3381 I disagree is similar to this album because there’s just a lot of unorthodox sounds and structures and that would be interesting to see. Also Melodrama is a good album lyrically
Lady wood is so underrated, one of my favorite pop albums of the decade
Straight up missing mitski
@@RicardoDjSubscribe I haven't heard her but what album do you recommend and I'll listen to her
The ending of Snakeskin is actually a sample of Piano Sonata No. 8 in C Minor, Op. 13 ‘Pathétique’ by Beethoven
Wow, her samples are unorthodox...You wouldn't expect certain genres to go together but she really is able to get it done quite well!
In the same song, in the 'pre-pre-pretend despa-a-air' section, she uses the classic Final Fantasy VII victory fanfare choir progression.
Lady Gaga used it in her Marry the Night music video
When Rina talked about making this record, she spoke about working with one producer to create a cohesive record that plays from beginning to end. And her samples are amazing, for Tokyo Love Hotel, she sampled the sounds of the hotel she was in and worked it into the production.
Wow that’s really cool. Yeah it gives you a more live sense of feeling. It almost feels like you’re in the room with her while she’s singing. 💯✨👍🙌🏾
The producer is Clarence Clarity, a musical wizard. He's great.
Don’t understand any of the production lingo but this one of my new favorite channels
Aww thank you so much! That’s why sometimes I beatbox, to better explain what’s in my thoughts. Lol. 😂❤️🙌🏾
Yes I've been waiting for this one.
What I really like is how different all the songs are genre wise and the lyrics go with the sounds. Like dynasty is about breaking generational trauma so it sounds really big , XS is a song about capitalism and a satire of those pop songs about spending so it's 2000s pop with rock elements. Etc.
Wow...your breakdown was really insightful! ❤️ she seems like a very political artist!
Yeah, the "XS" guitar riffs seem intentionally jarring, to go with the message.
@@kojikali3381 She has a degree from Cambridge in political science so yeah!
I love the reactions to the "drop" of bad friend, the emptiness really goes with the message on that first chorus and it's kind of an element of surprise, she does that through the album but in this song is very noticeable
Great reaction. Looking forward to STFU. You should do Melodrama by Lorde if you haven't heard it before - it has some neat production on it.
Wow I haven’t heard from Lorde in a while, that’s gonna be fun! 😄👍✨🙌🏾
Yeeeessss
Yessss Melodrama is a master piece
so good! thank you koji kali for teaching me new things and opening my ears to hear all of the nuances and artistry within all of your reviews. you’re definitely helping so many of us and these videos are so fun
That’s so cool! I want to keep it fun and interesting for you guys! I’ve sat through lectures before and they are obviously no fun lol. But thank you for tuning in 😂👍✨💯🔥
You were so right about the voguing
most of the songs on the album were inspired by a lot of 90s and 2000s songs, she made a few playlist of the songs that inspired the songs on sawayama
Where can I find the playlist?
I'm probably too late to answer, but her playlists are on spotify.
i'm only 4 minutes into this video and i'm already subscribed. you seem to really, know your stuff - and it's so much more interesting seeing people react to things when they actually know what they're talking about! the second you started talking about the low pass filter on the snare in dynasty i was sold 😭✨

I appreciate that, thank you so much for your time 😄✨❤️💯
XS is probably the best use of triangle in a modern song
As a french speaker, when she said "Coh-may dez gar-kons" my heart cracked 😂 But she gets and A for Effort.
how you speak and sing french is totally different, she sounded just fine.
I was talking about Koji, not Rina. 🙄
i love your analysis 😫😫 thank you!!

you should listen to the rina ep!! i love her music so much
Can you react to Broke With Expensive Taste next please???
YESSSSSS
can we talk about the EDITING in this video?
😆❤️✨ I’ll tell my editor!
Literally watched like 10 reactions to this album and I truly enjoyed yours the most. I have no knowledge of music production but the way you explain or describe things really make it accessible for us no-knowledge people, so thanks for that! Can't wait to watch more reactions from you. 🖤🖤
Wow I’m so honored, I honestly appreciate you for taking time to tune in my friend!
Never really heard of her before, but I like what I’m hearing
Yeah give it a shot! It will take you on a musical journey for sure!
if it's one thing rina sawayama is gonna do, she's gonna modulate
Now I’m clearly seeing that’s a staple for her lol
omg please do her ep RINA next it's so good
Watched this at 240 am hahaha but yea loved your comments on the album
What better way to spend a Friday morning 😂🙌🏾 thanks bud
You should definitely check out melodrama by lorde! The best production on an album ive heard! Loved the video :)
She's a genius! Thank u for taking the time to listen. Can you listen to Chromatica by Lady Gaga?
Snakeskin is sampled from the video game final fantasy and Beethoven very eclectic combination but it works so well
Yes I agree! Very eclectic combination...she’s eccentric for sure...but it works for her artistry! 😄🙌🏾✨❤️🔥
I’m so glad I found your channel! I’ve started producing my own stuff at home and this is just such educational and interesting content - makes me feel inspired to try out lots of new things!🤘✨
Do you have any links to things you’ve produced yourself? Would love to hear!
I love just vibing with you while also agreeing with you by myself 🤣
Have u listen to Tobe Nwigwe I’m Dope, i would love to hear ur thoughts on it.
It's kinda hyperpop too, now that I listen.
Not surprised since this album's producer, Clarence Clarity, has composed hyperpop music way before it became kinda popular.
pleaseeee check out Magdalene by FKA Twigs! i feel like you'd love the production on it
"I'm sure the gays love her"
me, a gay: WE SURE DO ‼️ STAN RINA SAWAYAMA 🥰 also i love how genuinely you seem to enjoy listening to this
No recommendation just wanted to say "vibes"
Vibessss 😌🤘🏾✨💯
loved the video! you should react to selena gomez’s revival or rare (deluxe) i’m curious on what your analysis would be!! ❤️
to pimp a butterfly reaction? or breakdown
Can you react to New Me Same Us by Little Dragon? It’s a real treat to listen to 😭 lots of unique sounds and stuff

Much love to you! Thank you for helping me pronounce the title lol. My American is showing 🙈🤷🏾♀️ and thank you so much for the recommendation, Tinashe is awesome! ❤️💯🔥👍
You have to, HAVE TO, react to How I’m Feeling Now by Charli XCX, I just feel like her music in general is a producer’s dream to pick apart haha
Noted! I haven’t heard form charli in a while! This is going to be entertaining 😂🙌🏾
Love this 😍 I would appreciate it if you would take the time to react to Halcyon by Ellie Goulding. It's my favorite album honestly 😭❤
I hope she sees this video
Can you react to Lady Gaga’s Artpop Album? 🥺
You should do a reaction of Caroline Polachek's debut album Pang. The production mixed with her angelic voice is wonderful to hear. I'm sure you'd love it 🌬️
Awesome! I’ve never heard of her. What kind of vibe is she on?
@@kojikali3381 she's really, really experimental but the album has R&B-ish vibes, some electro pop, art pop. She even uses her voice as an instrument sometimes. Her lyrics and visuals are amazing as well. One of the best albums I've heard this year (it came out in 2019). Critically acclaimed! You'd definitely love it💙💙💙💙💙
U should react to Pang by Caroline Polachek 💫
this was such a fascinating watch! :O your comments throughout the video really helps me to appreciate the production of the album even more. I got sucked into Rina's music this year through SAWAYAMA and I've been hooked on her since lolol. if you get the chance, I would love to hear your thoughts on Rina's other music, esp her EP 'RINA'! :D she also has really great singles. definitely a new subscriber ❤️(and you're right, the gays do love her 😭💕)
