    The whole point of Gorillaz as a project was to allow Damon Albarn, to collaborate with any artist he wanted to regardless of genre and just make music. It lets him expose his favorite performers to whole new audiences and let's them experiment outside their regular lanes. It's genius.

      Is there a reason why they never really use the featuring artists in the titles if they want to expose them? Genuinly curious. My guess would be the gorrilaz is more like a movement project where every artist is part of them and also every song would be just gorrilaz feat. ... would be weird.

    • @atomicNoodle
      @atomicNoodle 2 роки тому +11

      Yeah basically this; by using virtual bandmembers instead of having public celebrity personas allows them to shed the 'image' portion of the business completely. It's quite smart, and teaming with Hewlett to actually create a whole storyline to share with the fans is just a great touch.

      Bobby Womack’s album “The bravest man in the universe” created together with Damon Albarn is a work of art. I particularly love the track “stupid” especially if preceded by the “stupid Introlude” Gil Scott-Heron. And okay, I admit it, it’s been my ringtone ever since the album came out.

    You kind of nailed it. Gorillaz was created by 2 people: Damon Albarn (from the band Blur) & Jamie Hewlett (comic artist best known for Tank Girl). There's a base group of musicians who also contribute to vocals, but other well known artists (from a variety of genres) are rotated in & out--that's why all the songs sound a little different. They call themselves a 'virtual band'.

Otherwise it'd just be a plain old band--without animated band members, each w/ a whole back story. Or I guess it would just be an Albarn side project.

    Gorillaz are a virtual band created by two guys, but each song allows different artists to influence the sound. The features are not features because the members of the band are fluid. Gorillaz is whatever group of artists are on the track. I think it is genius. That is why nothing sounds the same except Damon’s vocals. Btw Blur is amazing as well and worth checking out.

  • @stephenroche4006

    Mos Def co-wrote this song with Damon.
    What you can appreciate with Gorillaz is Damon and Jamie Hewlett (make sure not to forget him as he is the co-founder of the project) is their willingness to genre-break, and I feel with that, there is something is there for everyone to like.
    Also, I've seen them live twice, one in an outdoor venue and one in an indoor venue, and the production values of both shows were unreal. Damon is a born showman. I don't know how he didn't pass out after his performance, and he manage to come back out to an encore.

    You picked up on something Gorillaz has done since the beginning; each album sort of tells a story. So knowing which album songs came from can help you connect them somewhat.

    You caught on at the end there, but the videos are meant to be watched in a given order. It's like... sure, you can listen to Pink Floyd on shuffle and get a great set of songs. But, if you listen straight through the album, you get a great set of songs and an overarching story to go along with it. Same with Gorillaz videos. You can watch just random and get some great songs and cool videos, but if you watch in order, you get great songs, cool videos, and an overarching storyline to it all.

  • @jonathanmooney9264
    @jonathanmooney9264 2 роки тому +2

    What most folks have said is true, there are narratives going through each album and sometime between albums.
    You mentioned before that you liked "Feel Good Inc". If you remember that has their character Noodles alone on a floating island with a windmill.
    The video finishes with several helicopters flying towards it.
    The next part of the story is found in "El Manana". Again very different in musical style to Feel Good Inc. But worth a viewing to get the way the connective tissue and narrative works.
    Also I believe the end of "El Manana" actually leads into "Stylio" and explains what is going on with the Noodles character in that video.
    After that rather than moving further forward I would recommend going back and filling in some of the gaps of songs from the earlier albums you have skipped over.
    They also did some non-musical short videos too which can be informative to help understand the collective narrative of each album and some are amusing too.
    Lastly they did a live performance with Madonna, at an awards show in which she appears to interact with them which is worth watching just for that alone.

    Damon Albarn is the one consistent element when it comes to the music, he’s like the mastermind behind it all, writing all the songs and doing the voice behind the animated singer in the band (2-D), but he brings in a bunch of new people to collaborate with on each album. Some of them can be quite high profile, such as, Snoop Dogg, Del La Soul, MF Doom, Mos Def, Elton John, Beck etc. But also he will bring on board lesser known artists.
    Damon Albarn also used to be the lead singer of Blur, one of the most popular UK Britpop bands from the 90s.
    Jamie Hewlett is the other person behind Gorillaz, but he’s responsible for all the visuals. He was a comic book artist before Gorillaz, and made the Tank Girl comics which were very popular. They were flatmates around the turn of the century, and were watching MTV one night, having a moan about the over-emphasis on celebrities as opposed to actual music. So they had the idea for creating an animated band. They then both went to their separate rooms, Damon wrote some tunes and Jamie drew some characters….and that’s when Gorillaz was born.

    I think you'd be interested in learning about the band's history/lore. You should react to a video covering that. It will kind of give you a bigger picture of the narrative (mind you, each album kind of has it's own narrative going on).

    Gorillaz collaborates with a wide variety of other artists. It's part of what keeps them evolving as the decades come. Mos Def is in fact featured on this track, you're not mistaken. The other voice you're hearing is Bobby Womack.

    I'm not usually so huge on eclectic quality within bands myself - not that I don't appreciate a band doing different things, but just that it seldom turns out to my own personal taste, to be an improvement on what otherwise might be a solid exploration of a more fixed style. So the sheer scattershot tendancy of this band was sure to not always grab me as I begin, via reaction videos, hearing what their stuff is like beyond just the famous singles. Gotta say, this is the first one that's grabbed me like some of their singles have though. Such a strong vibe to it. Brilliant song!

    The Gorillaz is legit a one man band (Damon Albarn the lead singer of Blur) featuring a bunch of diff artists.
    Its is regarded as possibly the only virtual band, and they dont follow a code or certain genre. A group of gorillas in the wild life is called a band so hence Gorillaz (or band) are their OWN genre.

    There is a pretty large iceberg when it comes to the concept of the Gorillaz that you sort of inadvertently hit upon near the end of this video. Because you're absolutely right: There *is* an overarching storyline to the songs. And it *was* Mos Def doing the rapping parts of the song (the other guest artist on the track was Bobby Womack).
    If you'd like a little more Mos Def and Gorillaz, may I suggest off the same album (Plastic Beach) the track "Sweepstakes"? I would go further to recommend that this is one of those situations where you probably SHOULD listen to the live version. While Mos Def does act as a carnival barker in the song, inviting potential players to play his game, his energy is much more palpable live. And I feel you'll thoroughly enjoy the layering of all the different instruments as the song slowly descends into cacophony.

  • @sunshyne0111
    @sunshyne0111 2 роки тому

    You've kinda got it figured out. It is 2 people. One that writes all the music, regardless of how it sounds, and one that draws them. The one that writes also voices the 2D character which you've heard in all the songs. He's a creative genius. They then bring in different people to collaborate on songs.. like the rappers in certain songs, which makes them sound even more different. It's kind of like one big musical experiment where you can do anything and are just behind animations.

    Mrlboyd, if you want to hear yet another genre in Gorillaz’s bag, I strongly recommend Latin Simone. It features Ibrahim Ferrer of Buena Vista Social Club. Since you live in Spain I imagine you can follow the spanish lyrics and break them down for the people.
    If I knew how to use Patreon I would definitely pay for you to listen to it, but really please check it out.

    The Gorillaz are a collab group centered around Daimon Albarn from Blur. Stylo features Mos Def and Bobby Womack. This is from the album Plastic Beach and this song takes place directly before Melancholy Hill in the timeline of the music videos. The introduction to the album is Welcome to the World of the Plastic Beach. The next song in music video timeline order after Melancholy Hill is Doncamatic, which I think is another good song by them.

    You're definitely going down the Gorillaz rabbit hole and love it. I discovered them around maybe 2005 at an airport before a flight, I just liked the album art, and have listened to them ever since. On that flight my particularly favorite track on the album was "Gravity". Idk what to say about the track, was just a whole vibe to escape with.

    Gorillaz is a virtual band by blur frontman Damon albarn, it's a way for him to express himself musically and explore different genres along with working with different kinds of artists. Jamie Hewlett is the one who is in charge of the look of the band, ie the stylistic design of each music video like 3d or 2d.

    the album version has a very 80s electro sound, but I saw a live performance on the colbert report, and that interpretation was way more 70s funk

    • @neomp5
      @neomp5 2 роки тому

      a fun detail about that live performance was since it was the real band, not the fictional animated characters, instead of the fictional stephen colbert character introducing the act, he walked out in regular clothes and introduced himself at steve colbert (with the hard T) before introducing the band
