I can’t think of that “rich men north of Richmond” without thinking about that time I was walking to the bus stop next to my college and some guy was just riding around on his bike while BLASTING this song on a Bluetooth speaker. I broke down into a laughing fit from the sheer absurdity, like even if you LIKE the song, it is NOT a song that you put on blast goddamn
Back when I worked nights at a gas station I had this crackhead come in blasting Duel of the Fates from Star Wars and dancing all over the store. Nobody has ever been higher than that man in that moment.
Both the hate and the love for that song is ridiculous. It's something this guy probably made out of passion that was intended to be listened to once. And then people say the right wing astroturfed it as if that removes the songs meaning.
I don't think it's fair to label an artist as part of the "Incel sound" just because some incels like them otherwise a lot of artists even critically acclaimed ones like Radiohead would be considered "incel/femcel" adjacent because a very small subset of their fans call themselves incels. If an artist makes dogs whistles to Incel talking points then sure call them out, otherwise you'd make the discussion around music more obnoxious than it already is.
I'm sorry to you and your brother that he is an incel. I know the answer is an obvious, "he won't do that," but how does he feel about therapy? Does he know that therapy will actually help him overall? Like, not just with incel behavior, actually help his confidence, self-love, and processing emotions to better live in the moment and the rest of his life? Maybe your parents could get involved and advise him that he needs help?
From what I've heard, Anna Indiana actually uses an uncredited voice bank. It functions similarly to Vocaloid characters like Hatsune Miku and honestly if they wanted to be more successful, combining with the voice bank singer and its owner to make a new V-Idol where the production community makes the music would probably have been way more successful.
Here's the kicker, 99% of SynthV voice banks (the program she uses) do have characters attached to them. The one that sounds most similar to Anna is Natalie, but she claims she's not using her. Anna said in a post she's just using SynthV for the vocals without Natalie (that's not really a thing you can do but okay) and using another vocal AI for the voice. My best guess is she's using one of the demo voice banks (my money's on Eleanor Forte LITE) and using another program to put the vocal AI she actually has rights to over it. And the best part? SynthV does use AI for some voicebanks, but not the demo ones. The only AI part of her voice is the glorified voice changer she puts on at the end.
@@stephaniesheep1147 It is Natalie! If you listen to Betrayed By This Town alongside Natalie's demo crossfade it is her. Honestly I'm not surprised her vb went uncredited, but it still boils my blood.
I also seem to remember Rap Critic saying the song is from a concept album where it's from the perspective of a character in the story, so it sounding the way that it does is also a result of that, and the nice guy stuff makes more sense in context. Still sounds really goofy, even if I do like the idea behind the beat, I just wish it was made by a better producer. Also yeah I would not judge him too harshly either. At least he had the guts to make something out there and interesting compared to what a lot of youtuber rappers of the time and even now are doing.
I have a ukranian friend who is 20, and he listens to boy with uke. Suprisingly he knows all the words to the songs he usually plays during car rides, ect. I say suprisingly because boywithukes songs are sooooo boring to me.
I actually really like Rap Critics lists, he consistently has very good takes and calls out a lot of people for being sexist or having nice guys anthems so I was surprised to hear his song but also I guess it was a character. Would like to see your reactions on his stuff even for previous years cause he calls out some songs Ive never even heard of
I'm not surprised he made a song like that, if you watch his positive reviews he has kind of a soft spot for songs with an unconventional narrator. So it makes sense to me that he would want to call out incels by doing a song from their point of view where he sounds as ridiculous as possible.
The rap critic song seems like a pretty obvious meme song. "screaming like a whiny brat". granted, he doesn't pull it off well, but it seems like he's not trying to be taken seriously

Then there is 12 year trans girl and trans activist Kai Shappley, who 2 years ago, testified in Texas’s state legislature, where she used to live with her family, to have her voice be heard about an Texas state anti trans bill that was put up for vote. The bill was eventually vetoed, with help from Kai. In 2023 she started a web show where she discussed politics with her friends and other trans kids from around the country, on issues and policies in America, that could affect trans kids such as them.

What is so confusing to me is that Grimes will be a part of what was easily the most interesting art pop album of the year in "Desire I Want to Turn Into You", and then produce some literal garbage afterwards. She still has an incredible amount of ability, it's just so unfocused that it's damn near impressive.
@slick3996 they also have similar interests, I believe they met because at one point, they had the same anime profile picture, so I see it, it just sucks to see her fall from grace in terms of music, I'm sure it's not directly elons fault but he sure didn't help.
@@BassicallyKiyash yep, i just remember seeing an article from like a month ago when she had to fly across the whole country several times to even find him so she can hand him the divorce papers, crazy relationship lmao
it’s the other way around, as bad as the kodak song is he was pretty influential back when he was really popular & a lot of people take from his vocal style including the island boys
I am in actual shock at that rap critic song. If there's anything to be gained from it, he's improved at his craft. Nothing spectacular of course, but comparing that to "Wavedashin" for example is basically impossible
Honestly when it comes to songs about being a robot and stuff, not only has it been done a million times but I feel like unless there's some story or creative approach it just falls flat lol. As for interesting approaches, I really enjoy mili's "world.execute(me);" for the interesting concept but also for the fact that the lyrics on screen are literally written out in code. It's a 7 year old song at this point and it still sticks with me! I just feel like there are so many ways to take upon this concept of a robot learning about humans/being different or whatever and Grimes just took the most boring way out
i would love a video on the rap critic, his own music is awful, and the funniest part is when he uses his own music as an example in his videos when criticizing bigger rap artists
I got an ad with a Jewish looking curly haired guy that looks like you, and I'm thinking wtf did Brad make an ad in my country?? and what are the odds I'd get that ad on his own video
Idk who's a worse Hatsune Miku wannabe: Polar or Anna Indiana. At least Hatsune Miku is just a voicebank. The producers that buy her voicebank are the ones who give her life, personality and lyrics, tuning... Also, she has a credited vocalist who donated vocals. At least Vocaloid requires human input unlike this generated garbage
I'll be vulnerable and say I wanna be software is kinda interesting sonically. But the fact that its sincere is what makes it bad. Tune out the lyrics and just listen to the sound of it, kinda good.
Brad's take on "Watch the World Burn" is excellent. Every time the song has come up in my playlist I straight skip to the 2/3rds point of the song, straight past the rap portion.
Rap critics song sounds exactly like KRS-One the only problem is KRS-One has production value and meaning.. well his new music isnt all that great, he kind of just says things- it's sad to see from someone with such a strong legacy.
I've seen some fears recently over the recent trend of like "AI" covers and how they sound... not good, by any means, but surprisingly OK. It took me a moment to get that this sounds so much worse because it's not a filter being applied to an already created song, and without the framework it can't fill in the blanks properly. So yeah, those might be slightly more concerning than this, but at least we know real human talent is going to be needed with the technology as it is.

I seen Fantano’s worst album video & he somehow thought the new Avenged Sevenfold album was worse than Transphobic Boogaloo part 2
I've enjoyed Grimes songs for the aesthetic but I could literally make I Wanna Be Software, and that's bad bc I have no idea how to make songs
YO I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS
My father got me a 45 vinyl of the fall out boy cover for Christmas 😭 I don’t even wanna know what he spent on it
Cheapest one on discogs is $30 lmfao
Pat Finnerty mentioned lets goooooo
Brad’s New Year’s resolution should be to change to Bood Tase in Music. Spread positivity and respesent Bloods, I guess.
I got an ad with a Jewish looking curly haired guy that looks like you, and I'm thinking wtf did Brad make an ad in my country?? and what are the odds I'd get that ad on his own video
You should watch the new Todd in the Shadows list, too. Both are good. Love your vids btw, keep it up.
Idk who's a worse Hatsune Miku wannabe: Polar or Anna Indiana. At least Hatsune Miku is just a voicebank. The producers that buy her voicebank are the ones who give her life, personality and lyrics, tuning... Also, she has a credited vocalist who donated vocals. At least Vocaloid requires human input unlike this generated garbage
Boy with a uke is using a $5 alibaba mask I used it once a Halloween a while back
I've heard the Rap Critic song before but I have literally 0 recollection of when and how wtf 😂
I'll be vulnerable and say I wanna be software is kinda interesting sonically. But the fact that its sincere is what makes it bad. Tune out the lyrics and just listen to the sound of it, kinda good.
yayyyyy brad so glad u did it again this year
for a second i genuinely thought brad shaved his head and grew a thick mustache
brad back again with the doohickey ass headphones
Hope for Todd in the Shadows reaction too and such
Toxic Gossip Train is marked on UA-cam as a song so that she could try to copyright strike people who were using clips to talk about it
Gentlemen stop digging we have struck gold
Yea, that song sure made me go “i can’t believe this!”
The fucking Fortnite remix of We didn’t start the fire is better than fall out boys version
Still can't believe he put TPAB as the worst song of 2023....
what, the whole album?
@thatoneguy9582 no just the song
can't believe kendrick lamar was his #1 worst album of 2023
15:30 Deltron 3030’s unreleased incel track
thank you for muting cinderella snapped
Yesss, I was anticipating this video to be released. I love your reactions of Fantano's opinions
HOLY what are those HUMONGUS CANS you have on your head???
Brad's take on "Watch the World Burn" is excellent. Every time the song has come up in my playlist I straight skip to the 2/3rds point of the song, straight past the rap portion.
The rap critic original song is my Roman Empire and I’m so serious
Nah Greek empire
Im more surprised Lil Pump didn't get put on here with Pump Rock x Heavy Metal
Please do a full album reaction of boywithuke, my friend likes him though i never bothered to check him out but i'm kinda intrigued now
Rap critics song sounds exactly like KRS-One the only problem is KRS-One has production value and meaning.. well his new music isnt all that great, he kind of just says things- it's sad to see from someone with such a strong legacy.
If the "oh my god" song was about some real problem/serious situation it would be actually good
35:01 PEAK MENTIONED
I've seen some fears recently over the recent trend of like "AI" covers and how they sound... not good, by any means, but surprisingly OK. It took me a moment to get that this sounds so much worse because it's not a filter being applied to an already created song, and without the framework it can't fill in the blanks properly.
So yeah, those might be slightly more concerning than this, but at least we know real human talent is going to be needed with the technology as it is.
OH MY GOD, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!
Really needed some Uzi cover of Chop Suey!
Kodak black actually made a waay worse song on that same album. i need you all to go listen to "flirting with death". its actual earpain
Thank you for the recommendation, it's truly terrible. Never suggest anything again!
When are we getting brad's best songs of 2023
That’s what I’m saying is he just gonna make us suffer through the worst ones or what
@@Thatsjusthewayitis i mean, at least he gave us albums
This channel is incredibly beneficial to my mental health
the vacuum cleaner is my #17 best songs of 2024. and #1 shoegaze song btw
I was literally typing "Store brand del Tha funky homosapien" when he said it.
Hope you react to Todd in Shadows list’s again too
20:19 I love this song in the 2010s, I was in early 20s 🎵
