One of my favorite hiphop albums. One of my favorite albums period.
Aidan Moore this is my fav album ever
Aidan Moore I love this album fr. It speaks 🔥🔥🔥
Aidan Moore same
I love this album. I know it ain’t objectively great but I think it’s my fav album.
LOCL I would say this isn’t a hip hop album to me it seems like an RnB album with some rap but it would be considered better as an RnB album.
i honestly cant believe critics didnt like this album. one of the best from 2013 for sure.
Schnarfy didn't it win a Grammy
pbj1328 no
pbj1328 got a nomination
Second half fell apart
It was ahead of its time no one was making shit like this in 2013
This album is insane. You don't even realize it yet. There so much deep meaning behind every song in this album it's crazy
Masterpiece
ywhal its got something for everybody, references, flows, production, and philosophy. Everyone can find their favorite parts like its a buffet of art. Thats why its a masterpiece.
The dissect podcast is about to wake people up
@@jaden_ja facts, i loved this album before even knowing the intricacies. incredible story
Agreed, we are really inspired by the album.. our first episode is called “Dial Up”
the album has a screenplay so the intro goes with it as well, this album is basically a story, it's kinda hard to explain it tho
There's a ton of explanations and theories all over reddit and the internet. There is also a short that goes with this called 'Clapping For The Wrong Reasons'. It's hard to post a single explanation in one comment since it's pretty in-depth and lengthy.
Im Gone the same kid from camp grows up and is depressed and lonely. He finds a girl he is in love with and ends up selling drugs. She tells him not to and he ends up getting caught by the cops and doesn’t know his fate
Im Gone he has a bunch of failed relationships first though
@Im Gone money can't buy happiness basically
@@notreallyizaah3025 W
flight of the navigator just has that feeling that makes you fly
but on the real, my favorite album ever.
Aaron Watkins Nice Profile Picture
Aaron Watkins Makes me wanna slow dance
It's nuts the feeling it gives considering how sad and dark the song is. One of the best off one of the best albums in existence.
Your not fucking lying dude same
It's really dope seeing someone experience a GOAT like Bino for the first time. It brings me such joy.
Maaaan the album is decent and all but he's nowhere near goat status, like not even close
Milo Hempel lel thats where u wrong
Milo Hempel I think he isn't a goat yet but he is on his way to one and this album is not decent this is amazing
Who's goat
Milo Hempel I would say he isn’t the goat, however with the amount of other things Donald does, it is good. If he focused only on hip hop, i think he would be one of the goat.
because the internet is my favorite album - ever
Emil Olafsson Strandgaard same
Can we hug?
Emil Olafsson Strandgaard same + channel orange and blonde by frank
Lea Oversteegen damn straight. frank and donald are amazing artists
TheJustinCinema my arms are wide open
Just did my reaction to Awaken, My Love and oh man is it nice
Shawn Cee yesss thank you
Next you should do Ego Death by The Internet, or Yesterday's Tomorrow by Phony Ppl
Shawn Cee 8/10 for me
Shawn Cee review camp by childish gambino
Shawn Cee omg bro I just listening to that shit complete 360 degree turn from because the internet in a really good way, when you posting?
I'm glad he likes Flight of the Navigator a lot. Such a good song
Keith amazing song
dude it's such a beautiful song, it's dark af but it means alot it good af
favorite album ever. Never gets old to me. screenplay is lit too.
The last five seconds of Life: the biggest troll is The Library in reverse, neat fact
fuckkk no way lol
Flight of the Navigator is hands down one of my favorite songs by Bino. It's so fuckin deep man.
SepticSole the last few tracks always fuck me up
SepticSole if you like FotN you should really listen to What Kind Of Love by him.
Low key brings a tear to my eye, every time I listen to it.
I feel asleep to it but I'll listen to it again if its deep
Childish announced he retired from rap a while ago so his new album is probably gonna be like a funky soul album. Which I'm totally okay with
Romy Taylor That's true, but everything he's released since he announced it hasn't been rap. I do hope that he raps still though.
camp wasn't trash what are yall talking about
Roger Malaga awaken my loge is amazing, camp wasnt good
camp had some pretty enjoyable songs its not trash if you actually take time to listen to it
lesryglrhfohser because the Internet wasn’t okay. It’s one of the best albums ever

@@wassuup6713yes
Ludwig Goransson probably the best producer/composer in the world right now.
NewDymensionZ Noah40
Phiwokuhle Qwabe 40 isn’t on Ludwig’s level
6ix, Logics producer is up there for sure
maikebu not even close, Ludwig is levels above him
@@Connorlahaie ya'll sleep on jaden Smith production. Even if you don't like the song the production is amazing
fuck man this is the most relatable reaction I've ever seen love your content man
Roscoe's Wetsuit EXACTLY
bro i feel that
That naruto background music in the beginning go hard asf
Simaz I didn't hear that o.o
thought i was the only one
bruuuuh
Trust me, you're going to have to listen to this 4837563 times to actually understand it. Shit is mind fucking when you delve into it deeply.
it's not that deep bro
1 go read some theories on reddit or somewhere and tell me that
still not that deep.
i read the screenplay, read the discussions, saw reviews, listened to it atleast 20 times since it released. everything since it came out. it's really not that serious
1.6
Hmm this album came out 3 years ago..3 years too late..
But then again this album is timeless.
except for the ain't nobody got time for that line haha
The only Donald I need in my life
lmao
Biz. ...what about duck
Genaro Santos fuck that nigga
Mr. Johnny keep talking stuff Ima bring the homies mickey goofey and duck over
What about Trump
probably my favorite hip-hop album ever. it makes me laugh, but so happy the way he’s reacting to the album because I was the same way when I first heard Because The Internet 4 years ago. thank you for this Shawn.
eminem and Gambino dropping in december. winter clothes. christmas. no school. going to Hawaii to see my gf. man this is gonna be a great end of the year
TechBrah no eminem proof
Domcreator leaked with the track list, now says january 25th
hopefully you arent expecting a bino rap album lol
Coach Pettigrew no im not, I heard his singles. I like it
Pretty sure RTJ3 drops, too.
CHILDISH GAMBINO IS THE FUCKING GREATEST IM SO GLAD YOU DID THIS
You gotta listen to Camp, Because the Internet, and STN MTN/ Kauai in that order and read the screenplay to BTI... Gambino's a genius.
Alexandra Hall where do you get that time lol
he's not a genius, gambino's a mastermind
Frick a b***** to pass the time (my mom checks my UA-cam comments so I can’t curse but I like that song lol)
Tommy Salami amen
What makes this one of the best albums in my opinion is the screen play that you can read along with it. The screen isn't long or complex but it gives the album so much depth.. im not sure how to put it in to words but its an amazing experience to listen to the album while reading the screenplay, while it perfectly matches what your listening to with what your reading at the same time. Literally genius
8:33 when you in the shower and ur playlist stop so you gotta make yo own beat
earl sweatshirt doris
or tyler the creator wolf
Darius S. totally down for both of those
Earl Sweatshirt- Earl
I just saw this comment, and listened to Earl sweatshirt, and Doris for the first time ever. Thank you, it was amazing, he was amazing
Can’t believe he disrespected the library like that
Such amazing production on that song 🔥
6:37 “imma get my platinum back like i’m a half ton gorilla” silver back gorillas. i’ve been constantly listening to this song for 2 years and i never understood that bar until 10 min ago
lmaooo thank u i was just thinking abt that bar
Flight of the navigator will always be my favorite song of all time and I'm really glad that you liked it and made the same comment that I made when I first heard it
Man really danced to flight of the navigator
It sucks cause Shawn rated this a full 10 and absolutely loved the album but it's like he completely forgot this album in his top 10 albums of the decade and acts like he just completely disregards this album in general
Yeah maybe it just shrunk on him
Maybe it was his 11th ten
He said he hates him now
@@avonhertz8329 booooo
"That was pretty uneventful" Lol
i think this is the happiest i’ve ever seen you review an album lol
you must've watched like 5 of my 700+ videos...
@@ShawnCee nah i started watching you around like february or march 2018 but yeah i haven’t watched much of anything prior to that haha
Makes me so jealous seeing Shawn’s first reactions and knowing that I didn’t document mine
Urn is my favorite too yo 😭😭 that song is heavenly
Who else came here to see his reaction to Zealots of Stockholm drop?
My favourite song honestly.
shawn was such a nerd back then
Donald (Gambino) produced all these songs (except one) with a few extra, most notably, Ludwig Göransson who also produced a majority of the songs along side Donald.
Nakiado no ludwig produced 80% of BTI. Dont come with facts that aint even facts.
***** What? Isn't that a majority?
+boi if you boo me, ima boo boo on you In the album credits both Bino and Ludwig produced the majority together. Buddy is right they had the occasional person come in like Thundercat, but most production was Bino and Ludwig.
Nakiado you phrased everything except for the very final thought as if donald did a vast majority of it all completely by himself, sans Ludwig Göransson
@@boyifyouboomeimaboobooonyall b
Rewatching cause after watching Anthony Fantano shit on this album I needed to see someone who enjoys it as much as I do. Very refreshing.
@@cbrad_edits yeah, you right! I just watched BigQuint’s vid the other day (I don’t know how it took me so long...) and I loved it. Such a fun guy
Anthony Fantano is crappy reviewer
I love coming back to this broken audio masterpiece 😂
I wish he showed his reaction to the most fire lyrics in the album "Man is a star, bound to a body inside of me. 20 million degrees burn a man to his knees."
“We all kissed and became the same” is my fave
Listening to this whilst reading the screenplay was the best experience I’ve had with an album ever
Childish Gambino is a little like frank ocean goes hard but can be soft at times and he's an actor
Joel Vazquez except frank is always soft
o.g kwam deadd😂😂😂😂😂
Frank meets Ye
flight of the navigator makes me cry bruh
because the internet > acid rap. i love both artists and albums, but you honestly cant put acid rap above bti
They are my 2 fav album/mixtape idk which is better
Acid raps my favorite mixtape and bti is my fav album
Album is amazing. Favorite songs are Flight of the Navigator, Pink Toes, Worst Guys, Sweatpants, and Zealots of Stockhom.
Life: the biggest troll will always be my #1 childish gambino song
i hope you treat Ab Soul the same before his next album comes out give a listen to Control System pls => edit: it blows my mind the guy who produced this album also produced black panther original soundtrack 😲🤯
SRSLY I can't agree more with this
Ludwig or Gambino?
@@Chibologist Ludwig
The most slept on project of last decade
this is easily in my top 5 of all time no one else i know fucks with it it was nice seeing someone else react to it
This was my first rap album i listened to in full back in 2014 when i was proper getting into music, definitely not mad this was my first rap album, so dope
Go read the script along with this album. It adds a whole new depth to the album and really will up your appreciation for this song.
Low key you're the goat reviewer.
I still do this when I listen to this record blowed
Man thanks for going back and listening to stuff. You're the only one doing that.
2 minutes into this video and this one of my favorite reviews of one of my favorite albums ever!
TRIBE, CHERRY BOMB, EARL, COZY TAPE. first two are completley necessary
Anthony Lopez TRIBE CALLED QUEST
Anthony Lopez and wolf 🐺
8:45 when you are studying and your favorite song comes up
It's amazing how entertaining you make these videos
Didn't realise you hadn't listened to BTI. I think it's one of the best hip-hop albums of the decade. ...btw, Bino's next album is titled "Awaken, My Love!" not Me and Your Moma. That's just the first track from the album.
one of my fave albums of all time. you're gonna need to hear this album a load more times to understand it. plus you should read the screenplay he made for it
Ratio
Gambino's music is made to be appreciated later. He made different music in a time where it was popular. Genius is your best friend
God am I happy I saw this review before copyright muted his sweatpants reaction🤧
It's so funny watching this and theneedledrop's review of BTI after one another. Shawn is so amazed by the production while Anthony doesn't dig it AT ALL
One of my favourite albums of all time. It’s such a multi-genre album💯. Another album that I would recommend if you’re a Madlib listener, check out “Yessir Whatever” by Quasimoto the bad character alter ego of Madlib
This album has been and always will be my favorite album ever made
You might know this by now but the reason for The Library is to fit in with the theme of circularity. Clapping For The Wrong Reasons, Chicken & Futility and Because The Internet all follow that theme of circularity. The ending leads perfectly into the beginning, making it an album that you can listen to cohesively on loop. You can listen to it over and over and every single song will always flow seamlessly into the other. Including Track 19 into Track 1.
I was wondering what album would get a 10 and it happens to be my personal fave artist. Made my day
You have to do Doris by earl man
This is my 5th time watching this reaction. My favorite reaction and reactor. Keep it up Shawn Cee.
Cosmicky _3D Same lol
You still come back and watch it???
@@user-db9vy2gh3v Every now and then yes like rn
11:47 Best track
Urn is my favorite song on this entire album.
the song is called me & your mama the album is called awaken my love
Bino is my all time fav artist and this is my all time fav album
I could visualize some of the bars on this album. That’s how great this is.
He actually wrote a script that was released with this album.
One of the best hip hop albums ever released
Gambino is my favorite artistas of all time,because he is one of the most talented people ever,he can sing,rap,write,act,he is a comedian he even has a TV show called Atlanta in Fx(i think)that got 8.8 in imbd,he is gonna be Lando in the new han solo movie and he is gonna be the new spider man movie,he wrote for 30 rock,so yeah he does everything,also this album comes with a script so you can read while you listen,so the intro makes sense If you read it
btw his name is Donald Glover
btw btw you dont need the script to get the album,because for me it had a diferent meaning when i finished Reading it than when i realy realy realy realy realy finished album.....yea thats it is think,also he's Freestyles are realy realy Good........thats it, i Am done sorry If i wrote to much,sorry if my english is wrong,thanks for Reading have a nice day
I absolutely love this album. I've listened to it like 20 times
I listened to it 21 times I’m better
Sylvan Lacue next! Searching sylvan is so underrated!
Ronnie Olimpio w
your a real one
searching sylvan is dope!!
i put it on a couple of videos but nobody know what it is
Searching sylvan!!!
i love this album so much. glad you liked it. 10/10 for me too
8:31 damn that's some good music there
I've probably heard this album all the way through 100 times and I still react to it like i've never heard this shit haha this album is fucking amazing
this album was prolly the most magnificent shit I've ever listened to
Can you please do Kid Cudi Man on the Moon 1 and 2?
You should react to The Incredible True story by logic
No.
he's heard every logic project already
javi Gonzalez you're seriously new to this channel (face palm)
If you haven't heard the mixtape Faces by Mac Miller, that is a must
snopay11 FACTS
could you do run the jewels 2 or some earl sweatshirt?
NewSoundNow I thought nobody was going say run the jewels man
Brandon Cruz he said he's heard it already
Love seeing people listen to this album, its so good i love it
Listen to Royalty
For me this album is a 8/10 at least the production and Binos rapping are amazing
yo i loved this. thanks for doing such a unique video/reaction
had to come back to this as i’m currently listening to this album but it’s dec. 25, 2018 and you’ve come a long way
YO YOU DID THIS TODAY !?! .. okaii let me stop being so hype.. but THIS IS MY EXACT REACTION
one recommendation idk if youve seen a lot ive got is Jazz Cartier's tape Marauding in Paradise. From toronto and the tape got him a lot of attention last year. The tape is really trap-inspired but he still manages to come through with bars on serious shit and some bangers, it does a really good balance.
also really sad to still see no MF DOOM. He pretty much birthed dudes like joey (pennyroyal is a DOOM beat) and his album Madvillainy with Madlib is a straight classic (Danny Brown has it as his #1 if that means anything).
Keep up the great work b im loving it, its an amazing feeling to see someone listen to some of your favourite albums of all time and enjoy it as much as you did
Read the screenplay, you're gonna love it
the tour for this album was amazing as well.
jpegmafia sounds like gambino on the worst guys
So basically, before 2016, Shawn Cee has been living under a rock?
In all seriousness, this is my favorite album of all-time, and Childish Gambino is my favorite artist/artistic being of all-time. I know everything about the man's careers, and you probably have gotten to know more about him now that you have listened to him for a while (and listened to Camp before this).
