first song i heard was obedient so i liked it from the jump but couldn't get into the rest of red light like that. now it's like top 3 bladee project for me
@@kyebartlett5454 yeah no doubt but what really made me enjoy bladee is how it made me feel when i was not feeling good, i didnt really listen to him to just to vibe during the day. His more recent stuff u can just listen to chill its not that emotional compared to eversince ect
@@roundabout468 I would be very sad if he missed the point of the old music all over again, I don't care if he gives it a bad grade I basically just want to hear him say "this old stuff makes way more sense now that I understand bladee"
yea Exeter is what fully bought me into their new sound.. I'd recommend you spend some time with bladee's "wodg" next, would b another essential early listen!! btw I think you meant to say icedancer not walker :')
wow i have never seen the red light review. i can't believe he only gave it a 1! that's my favorite bladee album. it has no skips imo. i can't believe that out of all them, that's the one he disliked the most.
Anthony always says bladee doesn’t sound very unique but I wish he would recommend the artists that bladee sounds like. I like bladee and have yet to find many artists making that sound. Anthony seems to always gatekeep them though.
Really cringe comment. You shouldn’t base your music opinion on a 36 year old man. There are hundreds of SoundCloud artists who have a similar sound to Bladee that Anthony does not and will never know about.
@@Njitsgamez bladee makes music for people frolicking in a flower field while singing about how blood has the same taste as sugar…so yeah he is consistent in this section
Exeter is honestly the album that got me bladee-curious too, I heard about red light here and there but Exeter even to this day has a certain magical fairy ice kingdom vibe that is unmatched
i remember first listening to bladee bc this girl always listened to him so i tried to listen and i thought it was weird but a year later i love bladee lmao
There's not much distinguishing about him, his songs tend to blend together into a blur of sound. They also lack a lot of traditional structure, which can be cool sometimes, but I think he fails to execute.
Rumour has it that one time Oloff was sat next to Jar Jar Binks on a flight. Jar Jar kept kicking the chair in front of him and generally being obnoxious, nobody knew what to do. Eventually one of the flight attendants came over and asked Oloff if he would perform one of his songs to calm Jar Jar down, and when Oloff began rapping the first verse to Doing It Stealthy, Jar Jar immediately relaxed. To this day the two are still close friends.
All the sadboys/draingang are strange. On paper it doesn't make sense. But they tap into this weird spiritual energy. ITs crazy special. I don't always understand it but like Bjork I can comprehend the beauty.
Yeah sure he's drained but does he hate Red Light still today? Because Bladee has progressed a lot during his career and Crest is very different from that
I listen to Doing It Stealthy by Oloff whenever I need therapy. Yeah, I could pay $300 an hour for some college clown to tell me what to feel, or I could just smash great big fucking coconuts on my head and listen to my favourite song over and over again.
Exactly how my love for Bladee happened. I didn’t fuck with his earlier shit, but he just evolved so amazingly as an artist, and it seems like Fantano has recognized that too. You should go back and review the older albums now like Icedancer and Eversince and Red Light.
he also mentioned avp in a y u no review and laughed at it 😢
how did I forget that ???? I think maybe it would hurt too much to add in
Imagine being so dumb you don’t like bladee

tbh ive only just started listening to him and i only like be nice 2 me rn

i'm still genuinely horrified by his drain reviews before the fool

I actually can't believe how badly he abused Bladee in the Red Light review holy shit, it's really not THAT bad.
im sure he would like it a bit more now w his newfound appreciation of drain
it's not bad at all, it's actually very very good

@@JacobYuan_ Eversince or The Fool
@@JacobYuan_ definitely 333 🥺
@@JacobYuan_ both these replies are right
The yassification of Anthony fantano is almost complete
to be fair, Bladee's music definitely got more accessible through the years and doesn't sound that 'weird' anymore in the grand scheme of things
nah nah if im playing bladee in front of the homies that dont like bladee im defs choosing the older stuff
older stuff was way more sad and emotional
@@ayda2876 yeah but his hardest shit is also his older stuff e.g. rip bladee

see i don't know if that's bladee's sound becoming more accessible as it is general music trends becoming more like bladee/DG
We all knew it was gonna happen. You hate DG at first then over time you start to love it.
DG?

did bladee get better? did music as a whole just get worse? who knows.what i do know is that bladee is one of my favorite artists
EXETER is a masterpiece.
still wish I could hear it again for the first time :')
Heard EXETER for the first time 2 days ago and I became a drainer INSTANTLY. Day 3 and I've already rinsed Icewalker, 333, EXETER and e

The only bladee album I haven't listened to at all
WE GOT IT BOIS HE IS OFFICIALLY DRAINED
The funny thing is, Bladee’s singing is incredible on Crest.
it's useless to try to explain why it's bad, this is art and it speaks to us.
Nobody boils my blood quite like Anthony Fantano
loser
He makes me so sexually enraged
@@djpacman3352 ?
So stop engaging with content that features him? Life is short. Don’t stay mad.

Glad I found you here and I agree.
dg? but, spread eagle cross block? hacker?
Yea cause the dg fanbase was so normal and not obnoxious before it was fantano-core
dg fanbase was cringe before that
is it fantano progressing into enjoying bladee or bladee getting good enough to be enjoyed by fantano
Both lol
the latter
the correct one is it's getting bad enough to be enjoyed by fantano

never expected the progression tbh his reactions in the beginning were pretty justifiable but ya nice to see
Bladee is more consistent and willing to take risks unlike drake. I love to see it
Idk how much of an achievement is to be better than drake at anything ngl
I don’t think taking risks and being consistent go together
@@Njitsgamez bladee makes music for people frolicking in a flower field while singing about how blood has the same taste as sugar…so yeah he is consistent in this section
I'm only just now coming around to being drained so this felt like a biography
We all kinda had that progression let’s be honest
Exeter is honestly the album that got me bladee-curious too, I heard about red light here and there but Exeter even to this day has a certain magical fairy ice kingdom vibe that is unmatched
i was a casual fan til I heard Exeter, still one my favourite projects oat
As an og drainer
My trajectory went opposite
Redlight btw has to be one of my favs
you can tell how much his mind changed based on the color of his shirt
cant wait to see this compilation but with ant slowly liking Saba more and more
one day....
Smino
Cool to see someone so young grow more mature with age
Icedancer will always be my favorite bladee project
i remember first listening to bladee bc this girl always listened to him so i tried to listen and i thought it was weird but a year later i love bladee lmao
Imagine calling his sound “not unique”. Bruh.
It always just sounded like “yung lean”-light to me…but i know nothing.
@@letsgitcrackin theyre really not that similar

@@nxvh9062 yeah I agree, I guess we have been around music long enough to have heard stuff similar. I'm with fantano on this as well.
It’s not
This is what is what is basically happening to me. I like crest and ice dancer
Wow our little Anthony is growing up. I'm so proud!
The first time I heard Beating the Heart by Oloff my heart stopped beating. Thank God the doctors were able to revive me.
This story arch has been crazy
sounds like he's bargaining with ANY reason to enjoy it lmao
Wow I still can’t believe he gave Red Light a 1.
you shouldn't be allowed to listen to music if you watch the needle drop
@@nwa8169 no one that watched TND does
There is a tradition of Choir singing in church here in Sweden. Bladee reminds me of that somehow
you have a good point
i love that this shows the objectivity of his reviews so well. he reviews each piece of work independantly.
He gave The Red Light a 1, no way that was objective
i hope we actually get a thaiboy review for this new album
his warlord review is such a crime literally best album oat
love ur edits
they're a bit scuffed but I appreciate it :))
perfect demonstration of peer pressure
SPIDERR IS GONNA BE 10/10
He gave a album a 1 infront of 2 10/10 albums in the background
disrespectful.
thank u for thaiboi at the end
Professor Skye's stages of liking bladee theory in action
Crest is one of my fave albums
i hope we get new thaiboy album as well , especially since we dropped fresh
yess the drill song at the end !!
This video is beautiful
his shirt at crest is sick
can you link the full video where he said he was fully drained
in the description
u would think fantano would understand the approach of the vocals and not take them so seriously
We've all been there Anthony, it's fine
I unironically like & listen to bladee, have done since 2013 or so. Not as much these days but he has some tracks I revisit.
IM FRESH IM FRESH IM FRESH IM FRESH IM FRESH
i didn't like bladee at first either and i just grew to love his music
Oloff's music helps me to process my feelings about 9/11.
Where is that second to last clip from?
the end of the video he predicted back 2 life
Would you post the clip of fantano reacting to FELL by varg and bladee? I'd like to watch that
maybe I missed the stream but I don't think he reacted to it live
At the end of 2020 he put god in his best tracks on a weekly track roundup he called it a 'commercial drained banger'
he was fighting against himself for way too long :'(
I can’t believe he gave Red Light a 1
Average evolution from hater to drainer
What's the first song that plays when it cuts to the text? I might die if i never find out
hocus pocus. the song he was talking about
insane character development
Rumour has it that one time Oloff was sat next to Jar Jar Binks on a flight. Jar Jar kept kicking the chair in front of him and generally being obnoxious, nobody knew what to do.

Okay the clapping scared the shit outta me for a min
he is going through the drain cycle of life
it finally clicked fo him
he is climbing the fantano ladder
Yeah sure he's drained but does he hate Red Light still today? Because Bladee has progressed a lot during his career and Crest is very different from that
he still says he's "not crazy about it"
Joker shirt during the last review. Bladee reference.
good eye
I hated bladee, then I listened to bladee ironically. Now I realize it’s honestly kinda fye
im fresh im fresh im fresh (im fresh)
I'm curious what his thoughts are on old Bladee now that is sound has clicked.
It was just the hair holding him back
bladee curious lmao
