And J. Cole said this was boring… smh
it is... its a great album but who the actual fuck is playing this on aux. shits a snoozer after first listen. say whatever you want to defend your fucking idle, he dont know you lil bro
@@BrennanSawyer-ou6xt drake aint gonna give you his tip bro.
@@BrennanSawyer-ou6xtnot every album has to be made for the aux for it not to be a “snoozer” plus you can play some songs on aux like alright, king kunta, hood politics and etc.

The quality of this just make me proud. The voice over, the side comments from fans, the editing... damn. You stand out from others reviews/reaction.
@@pathreacts By a whole lot btw
This comment!!!
Especially for someone who is new to the artist!
Seriously the quality is insane, instant sub can't wait to see more from this channel
TPaB was one of the first albums to make me go “oh shit, music can sound like this??” I’m so grateful to have been on this journey again with you
actually a perfect description. i heard this and i was like "what the fuck where has this been my whole life"
I had the exact same reaction
Isn't "u" just the most impressive song you've ever heard. I STILL get goosebumps listening to it, after all these years
I get those goosebumps every time when "u" plays it got me to frown it makes me so sad bro
u is the most painful song I have ever listened to.
No other artist on earth could create something so depriving. Closest thing it reminds me to is Lazarus by Bowie.
bruh
One of the only songs that has made me cry
if these paths could walkkk
Need that remix expeditiously
found myself screaming in the hotel room- PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
This path ain’t freeee
🗣️I LOVE MY PATH!
If path got us then we gon’ be alright
One of the best albums ever made. Kendrick is goated
one of breast albujms ever made

Out of all the community favourites, this has got to be my favourite. It's message was so beautiful it made me cry, tears running down my cheeks. I don't know how to describe how sad I was when I saw this message, but it hit me in a spot in my heart I didn't even know I had. It was so touching. Whoever this user may be, this guys gotta write a book or something.
The world is not ready for his book, it would change society as we know it
The Quote- "Self Love, It's what drives some people, it's what keeps me going. Nobody can hold you down. Empower yourself. Beautiful song with a message that will stay true forever"
@@starstreamer725actually it was ken dric Lamr
im glad that im not the only one that cried listening to "i"
i actually never cried to "u" but i felt emotional every time i listened to "i"
This album has made me cry time and time again words can’t describe how close this album is to the heart
it is so, so special
The way the album builds and ends with the conversation between Kendrick and Tupac is absolutely beautiful. Truly a magnum opus of an album!
i feel like it would have hit me a lot harder if i knew of tupac & his influence beforehand tbh but im still really impressed!
@@pathreacts I dont know if you remember but in savior from mr morale and the big steppers he says tupac dead gotta think for yourself as a reference to the outro of this album :)
@@pathreacts wait how do you not know how influential 2pac is

@@TOKEREAPER454 lol I did not finish the video my bad
I'm so happy to see this upload today. This album effected me in ways I can't possibly explain. Wesley's Theory and u are masterpieces to me and I hope you liked the album as much as I did or more so.
Oh, OutKast changed the rap scene forever. They were so open and free with their themselves and their sound in an era of rap that tended to express a harder/tougher side of life. They still go into serious and thoughtful topics, but they really were creative and opened the rap world to what the South can do. They influenced a lot of Atlanta rap, like EARTHGANG. They weren't even accepted by the culture at first, but they gained the acceptance of the culture and changed it forever. They are truly pioneers and legends in their own right.
Outkast so overrated I can’t stand these dudes.
I always said how Earthgang reminded me of Outkast before I found out they were from Atlanta and it's because of their style the way they present themselves it really brought me back to those times when I started drinking at 8 years old playing dominoes with my dad my uncle and my older brother and we had the 100 disc changer in the stereo and listen to every single outcast album back to back
those were the days bro 😅

Not I never liked 3stacks. Always found him great but not GOAT.
This remains, even now, my all-time favorite hip hop album.
W
for me its the best album ever.
This is easily one of the most complex and greatest albums ever made. There's so much to digest that there's almost no way to understand it all first few listens. I recommend watching videos which do a great job at showing just how many layers and thoughts went into every aspect of the making of this album, its amazing. Even when you think you understand a song entirely, you can find another thing elsewhere which completely opens up your mind and doubles its meaning. On "These Walls" for example, I picked up fast that the second verse was about the prison cell walls of the womans lover, but it wasnt til later that I picked up that that man was also the man who killed Kendricks friend from the song "Sing About Me, Im Dying of Thirst". That completely blew me away. The fact that hes using his "power" as a "famous rapper" to get back at him for killing his friend by having sex with his lover. This album is amazing and generational to say the least.
wait until you listen to "honor killed the samurai" by ka
The Podcast Dissect did a incredible job breaking this ablum down trqck by track that would be cool if you reacted to it on your channel or maybe on your Patron.
@@indigovindictive2097 Great album but nowhere near as good as TPAB.
@@justsomejusstsome8994 definetly one of the most interesting concept albums
Saba - care for me is another incredible album. He’s from Chicago and that album in particular revolves around his cousin Walt who was killed. Prom/king is one of the most impressive story telling songs I’ve know of. Highly recommend it as one fitting more in as conscious rap
holy shit yes. probably my second favourite jazz hip hop album after tpab
Heaven all around me hits different
please react to care for me its an absolutely incredible album
prom/king gotta be my favorite song ever the storytelling is just so good
I second this
This channel should be the standard of all the reactions channel.The quality of the video is astonishing. You can really feel the effort she put in the process of video making.
appreciate that 🥹
This one looks cool, but I also like more spontaneous reaction videos
Remarkable editing holy moly
thank u Bradley 🫶
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!! I can only imagine why it’s like to listen to this album for the first time in 2022, you truly were in for a treat. Greatest album ive ever listened to.
As a white European teen back when this was released (and even now), this album really helped me to get a sense of social injustices in the US. A topic that was very objective to me was suddenly connected with emotions and personal experiences.
That‘s not where this album stops though. I feel like a lot of Kendrick‘s messages a applicable to social and structural issues all over the world, which makes me come back to it over and over again and take new learnings away from every listen.
Add that to the personal struggle he describes on many of the songs and I have a hard time finding a more thought out and layered album out right now. I‘m forever grateful to Kendrick for releasing TPAB.
Also, really appreciate your reactions. I‘m usually a quiet watcher of yours, but I had to comment on this one 🫡
they want you gone
@@lerorz8517 ??
@@lerorz8517 If thats what you got from this album please listen it again
@@JonasFootball nah kendrick lamar wants whites gone
@@JonasFootball The ones with power want us europeans gone atleast.
momma is my favorite off the album, “i know if i’m generous at heart, i don’t need recognition”
The way I’m rewarded?, well that’s gods decision.
And you KNOW that line’s just for Compton school districts. Just give to the kids don’t gossip about HOW it’s distributed
for me the lyrics dominate the song and there isn’t enough musically to enjoy it that much
The rabbit hole into Kendrick Lamar's artistry gets cult like once you listen to all the "LEAKED" "Unreleased" work. The man literally has albums of reference tracks on UA-cam. SOOO GOOD!!!
Probably my favorite album of all time, when I heard this album I was 16 years old in high school and it really was the culmination for me going from black boy to a black man. It was released at the right time and I hold it close to my heart. I'm glad you liked it and btw I luv your reactions and how much care and luv you put into it, keep doing yo thang ❤
man i cant even imagine how pivotal this album would be for you. thank you for sharing
The most anticipated album reaction of the decade
It’s crazy how Kendrick got 2 of the greatest albums of all time. Back to back classics, arguably a 3rd with Damn. We’re witnessing history. Love to all
two top ten albums lol
Kendrick has had a pretty good 6 album run with section 80, GKMC, TPAB, untitled, Damn, and Mr Morale ngl. All are good or great albums
@@joshuapittman4663 i agree bruh, legendary run
I really do appreciate that u didn't skip any of the poem. It's what truly wraps this perfect album together, like a bow. And this album was a gift to us. At times I wish I was listening to it for the first time again. What an amazing experience it was. It opened my eyes to ideas and underlying issues I never considered, like I was a caterpillar and Kendrick was the butterfly. Thank you for taking this journey with us Path.
41:44 i love how you’re laughing along with pac and kendrick like you’re apart of the conversation too. mortal man, i and u are absolutely perfect songs. perfect.
again, another great reaction path
What I love so much about this album is even the music, like the instrumentals, tell the same story. Like in King Kunta the octave goes up every time he repeats the hook, or how he’s breathing in For Sale because he was just “running for answers”. Just so good I’m glad you finally experienced this
absolutely incredible!
One of my favorite examples of musical storytelling on this album is how Kendrick utilizes rhythm and the nature of the musical measure to reinforce the lyrical concepts on Momma.
If you listen to his flow in each verse, a lot of the lines start after the downbeat of each bar and he's also rhyming across the bar line which gives an off-beat/syncopated feeling to his flow almost like it's wandering around. For context the downbeat, the first beat of a bar, is the strongest or most stressed beat in a bar or measure of music.
At the end of each verse, the word "home" always lands on the downbeat of the bar which provides a strong feeling of resolution, like you're finally landing at home since he has been avoiding the downbeat a lot and 'wandering' throughout the verse. Just like how in the poem he talks about how he went running for answers until he found home.
@@papa_p4965 if I could like this comment twice, I would
@@n8gr8films I studied music in college and this album came out during my senior year, so I was able to do my senior project analyzing and researching the musical context of this album in relation to the history of African American popular music as a whole. I'm not surprised that this album kick started a podcast like Dissect, has been written about in academic music journals, and even had entire books written about it. It's so lyrically and musically dense and is truly a masterpiece in my eyes
Wtf! This girl is soooo damn good I can't even call her a reaction channel! Keep it up man you're killing it
This album legitimately changed the way I enjoyed music since. I had never heard anything like it up until that point, I was always listening to whatever was popular or well known. To this day, 7 years later, everytime I hear the last poem Kendrick reads, I legit get chills, sometimes I even get choked up. It truly is my favorite album of all time and I am so glad I found it when I did.
Best rap album ever made. Best album ever made. The most impactful within it's genre & a classic.
Without a doubt. I see a lot of people saying it’s not but then always fail to name something that’s better
it's not the best rap album ever made, but you do you
@@indigovindictive2097 literally nothing is better, not nas, biggie, pac, jay, weezy, outkast, none of them have an album as good, let alone better than tpab. Doom is an exception, I think it’s either between madvillainy or tpab for the top spot. Artistically speaking you could also argue for some Kanye albums but they obviously don’t have the depth and storytelling that tpab or madvillainy has. Artistically they’re damn near unreachable tho
@@bbpoisonn They all do. wym
@@indigovindictive2097 there’s not a single one 💀
the long awaited. i am so so excited to see your reaction, it is simply his most beautiful, thought out and important album he’s ever made. I hope you enjoyed this as much as we all did on first listen! Can’t wait for more path videos 😎
i absolutely love the way you're able to dissect it. i can tell you're so passionate ab this and it's so refreshing to see
Woah! This was recommended to me and i clicked it just cuz i love this album, and i wasn't expecting such an attentively produced/edited/presented video like this. Very cool to see some more profound interactions with music rather than the usual "reactions" going around around here.
I can’t describe this album any better so I’ll just copy and paste my comments from Bob’s video 👍:
People often use hyperbole when describing music or just things they love in general, but this album is literally one of - if not the most lyrically dense album ever made. It’s hard to even describe how much weight it holds and the amount of meaning it possess. It’s really more than an album. Although this type of praise seems overzealous and even unnecessary, once you go down the rabbit hole of research/ simply listening and discovering the different meanings it’s very difficult to dismiss. While I don’t like to throw around the word “genius” this is an album that could only be made by someone with an astute understanding of the world at large and more importantly themself.
Enjoyed reading it then and I enjoy reading it now :)
@@bobthepoppop love how you watch Paths videos too. great Ctrl video btw Bob!
I just finished watching his reaction 😭
Crazy to think that this might not even be his best written project, I genuinely believe Mr. Morale is in this level of meaning and nuance.
Indeed, this album is one of the most album aver made
One thing I find interesting, is how despite how massive of a deal this was, nobody in the game tried to really replicate what kindred put out here. With most big albums you do see some sort of creative uhh appreciation, but this time it was different. Part of it could be due to soundcloud rap rising so much at the time, another could be from how this album is so clearly an assortment of countless craftsmen at their apex, you can't realistically try replicating it without being clearly watered down.
one of the best albums ever made.
I've been waiting for this reaction since your first Kendrick reaction video. This is in conversation for the best and Greatest hip-hop albums. The story within the other albums in his discography makes it even better. Every time I put on Kendricks stuff it just makes me love everyone involved in this more. Everyone is top tier.
this is so high quality! i know you're over 100K subs, but you're seriously gonna blow up any day now. this is insane, i know its a few months old but this is just fantastic. other people have said it but it really feels more like an analysis than just a reaction video. its like a whole different type of video. some kind of like... live analysis almost. great work!
whats wild is that i uploaded this reaction at 68k. its been such an incredible journey. im glad so many people connect with me on these albums 🥹 thank you joey
I don't know how many times I had chills watching this video... amazing work on understanding and explaining what the album is and your perspective as well path!! thank you
One of my favorite things out of this channel is the voice over. Hearing your thoughts AS we watch your reaction is far more intriguing than guessing what you could be thinking in a specific moment. Top tier !
this is my favorite react channel you do everything so well and i love all the insight and overlays into the songs without having to see someone pause every second
This was incredible. I’ve listened to TPAB probably over 100 times and have dissected it numerous time, but to see you react to it made me feel like I was listening for the first time. I got emotional in a way that I haven’t listening to the album in a long time. Keep these up
This album impacted me so much when it first came out. I'm glad you're able to experience it!
You've grown so much in your editing skills!! I love how you tell the story of the album whilst not just reacting to it like alot of other channels! Your videos are so well edited🔥
Love hearing the album through your ears.. One of my favorites of all time.. Thank you for all of your thoughtfulness with the lyrics and references!
Always cool to see someone dip their toes into a new genre! I hope you continue to have fun exploring all types of music. I appreciate the fact that you clearly enjoy the music but can also approach it with such thoughtfulness and introspection.
So excited for this reaction vid! One of my favourite albums ever.
On my first listen to this I really didn’t like it, but after hearing so many people talk about how good this album was I decided to give it another try and now it’s in my top three favorite albums of all time. Really don’t know what happened that first time
hahaha it happens 🥹
The way this shit made me feel the first day I found it (2015-2016). Wesley’s Theory opening the album. I’ll never forget that feeling. Every Kendrick album has given me a similar feeling sense, but never quite like Wesley’s Theory. Not surprised Thundercat did the bass and was apart of that chorus. Perfect pairing.
This album. Wonderful piece of art from hip hop and rap.
The sheer amount of love and care you put into truly understanding Kendrick's story as a reactor is heartwarming, and I'm inspired by the way you've edited and put this together. One of the best reactions to one of my favorite albums: you have yourself a new subscriber
This album has so many layers too it, and so many songs on this album strike a chord with me. How Much a Dollar Cost has to be Kendricks best song imo. The imagery he creates and the messages is just masterfully done. That song doesn't even need a music video because you can see it just like he describes. Glad to finally see your reaction!
A great conscious album is "All-Amerikkkan Bada$$" by Joey Bada$$! It got released in 2017, two years after TPAB and speaks about a lot of similar problems, which makes it relevant to this day. Also Joey is really talented, in both rapping and singing and has great production on the record.
imo that album was a flop, and is terrible when compared to his 1999 album
@@hamburger1822most things are terrible compared to 1999
This collection still brings tears to my eyes and invigorates my soul. Composed perfectly!
this album is a masterpiece. i literally never get sick of it
Literal best album of all time
Just saw Kendrick in concert last night! He was so incredible and put a lot of work into making sure his performance was engaging :)
hope you had a good show!!! it was amazing when i went in oct!
I just love how U works, the beat matches the feeling and energy of Kendrick, the fast pace somewhat angry flow with the more upbeat unnerving beat and when he's starting to break down, the beat is half timed and very slow with simple but drawn out sounds. Its fucking fantastic.
This album is easily my all time favourite, its a multi-layered, incredibly well produced piece of art, whilst its incredible listening to it from start to finish and follow the story many of the songs can still be played by themselves and still be really enjoyable when they pop up in your playlist.
these reaction videos always help me to understand more than i already did. Thanks for always enlightening meeee❤️❤️
It makes my heart full to see someone approaching this art form with empathy and respect the way you do. A part of it is entertainment, but I think a part falling in love with it seeing the identity and pride it embodies for a people. I am so happy right now for finding your channel. Thank you ❤❤❤❤
seeing your journey through kendricks most popular albums has been so fun, really cant wait for whatever's next
Your reactions are so top tier! Been waiting on this one for a minute and you killed it. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Loved every minute of this! So glad you enjoyed this album as much as I did on first listen :)
literally dropped everything, the anticipated reaction !!
Seriously love the way this channel merged video essays with video reactions. So creative
Man, I just love these videos. The whole package. Really look forward to everytime you drop. Thanks for the immaculate vibes and just letting us hop on
this album is truly a masterpeice not just in hip hop or music, but in the most basic artistic form. Amazing video!!!
Glad you loved it. This is my 2nd favorite album at all time
I’m so happy that you finally gave this a listen if been waiting for this video for so long!!! Always great as usual!! Love your reactions and your fresh perspectives on this album
I’m sincerely amazed with how much effort was put into this video, amazing. Your reaction to U almost got me crying to this song like I did at my current lowest back in the day. Amazing work!
Sza’s CTRL and J Cole’s 2014 FHD are a must listen
Loved the reaction Path ❤️
These Walls was amazing when I had first heard it. & Momma. I love this album.. It’s a shame it didn’t win a Grammy award. Thank you for the video!
I was soooo waiting for this reaction, one of my favourite albums of all time!! Love your reactions and your commentary is super insightful and empathetic and just amazing!!
ive been waiting on this one for months! great reaction!
So many beautiful little moments on this album.
*tears of a cloooown*
The greatest themed album I’ve ever heard still to this date. Incredible work.
I love watching people react to this album as it’s one of my favorites! Amazing job, a gold star worthy video
I love this reaction format, the voice overs, the lyrics on screen, the editing, just everything is so 🤌🤌 And to top it all off your voice is so easy to listen to. Up there in the reaction goats.
PATH AND KENDRICK, THE BEST COMBOO🥺♥️
I was expecting a typical reaction video but this is really excellently done and recontextualizes the "reaction" genre. Edit: Also really appreciate that you make effort to sync the beat when you skip segments.
loving the format!
This video is amazing, it's so great seeing you finally react to this album.
What a journey that reaction was! I can't even imagine how difficult it has been to prepare, record and edit this video. As always, perfect execution, Path!!! Really glad that you manage to pull this off and was able to portrait all your emotions and thoughts on an album that is more than 1 hour long. Also, it was truly inspiring hearing that you came from a very traditional/religious upbring and that's the main reason you didn't listen to a bunch of rap prior to this phase. Surely there is a lot of people that has a similar background and opening up about it is very important to us to realize that is okay to not know all of the metaphors and references of this culture, but to respect it and try to understand is our job as human beigns. Can't wait to see what's next, but, again, congrats a lot!!!
btw, you mentioned your desire to expand more on conscious rappers and I think that's a fantastic idea! I would suggest the following albums:
- Black on Both Sides - Mos Def
- The Low End Theory - A Tribe Called Quest
- Things Fall Apart - The Roots
- Cheat Codes - Danger Mouse and Black Thought
- It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back - Public Enemy
- Straight Outta Compton - N.W.A
ohhh thank you so much for the kind words and for the recommendations! will definitely keep these in mind, been looking into mos def & the cheat codes album already!
Cheat codes is amazing!!! Things fall apart is also a masterpiece, black thought on the mic with the incredible live instrumentation by the roots
This album has consumed me for the last month and a half. I’m so happy to share this with you.

I've been binging your reactions. I love the way you approach music and life based off of your commentary. I can't wait to see what you'll be listening to next!
You've already gone through some of my favorite albums of all time
This has to be his most beautifully crafted album, from the beats to every song, every verse, every emotion put into those verses, down to the few features the album has. I also love the duality he has in his songs, it's always a completely different tone from one to another according to the conflict he has with himself and his thoughts. Undoubtedly the album of this decade.
It's so cool to me that there are people out there that just love music as much as she does, it's almost relieving
This is a quality reaction. Your actual analyzing and coming up with good profound observations. Definitely going to binge on all of your videos. Keep it up!
This is awesome mahn love your content!
i always come back to this album when i truly feel lost in this world. when i doubt myself or my friends for no reason. when i lose sight of a goal i have in mind or when i'm depressed paranoia and misinterpreting things and motives. somehow this albums makes my mind clear and makes me think clearly and calm my head down and remind myself that its okay to be lost. to be sad and to even get overwhelmed. we're only human, its natural. just gotta keep my head high, and to start loving myself more
thank you so much for sharing. i definitely see myself revisiting this album when things get tough. we're gonna be alright
This is my favourite album of all time. Listened to it countless times at this point start to finish. The references and the manner they are made in are genius. Every song is a chapter which form this tragic yet beautiful story.
Loved the reaction!!! It really was what i was expecting for... keep it up and hope you do more reacts :)
This one is tough to digest on first listen. But after a couple of listens not only do you hear clearly what he's saying, every song starts to have profound meaning you can relate to. At least for me that's what happened. Best album of all time for me.
I’m currently in college and have hated writing papers all my life. I have never been good at it and it has been something I’ve always dreaded. But about a year ago now I was able to write a college essay diving into to pimp a butterfly and all the emotions and meaning expressed throughout it and I had never enjoyed writing so much in my life. This album has so much depth and so much meaning it’s truly beautiful to listen to and extremely fun to research and dive into. Without a doubt one of the greatest albums to come out of hip hop, especially in recent time. Amazing reaction as always. I look forward to the next one :).
We Been waiting for this one. You went in an amazing order, waiting till now to tackle this. New you’d love it as much as I love your voice
im so grateful about new people getting into tpab, its the masterpiece you listen for the first time just to get a bit of it, then you hear it once again and understand a bit more and so on with the next listens. It's one of those albums that will never get old.
Appreciate a lot these videos ty
LETS GOO THIS IS HANDS DOWN MY FAV ALBUM LETS GO
It's actually kinda cool that your point of reference for Kendrick is Mr Morale/big steppers. It gives you like a retrospective point of view on his past works/ struggles. Glad you enjoyed his music, I definitely enjoyed being on this ride through your Kendrick journey. : )
