CRAZY how much this still holds up. One of those songs where even though you haven’t heard it in years, you remember all the words. It just sticks with you.
@@blackgrlfly i dont get it too Kdot is on a differnt planet to Jcole , cole is good by he aint kdot level musically and intelligence lyrics, its like saying biggie / lil uzi
I remember sleeping on that song when it first dropped. Like I probably didn’t press play for a month or so. When I finally did. This shit was on repeat. Was low key disappointed it didn’t make good Kid.
My first time hearing Kendrick was on Jay Rocks Hood Gone Love It but I learned he was the chosen one when I heard Overly Dedicated. The song that changed my life was The Heart Part 2. I got to thank him in Baltimore when he headlined the BET Music Matters Tour In front of 2,500 people right before GKMC dropped. Been to every Tour and Festival he's performed at. When I say I shed a tear every show just seeing him grow from shaking his hand in 2011 telling him thank you, to seeing him sell out arenas and be world famous is the greatest feeling. God bless Music.
@joshwhite6646 Seeing cartoons and cereal live was insane. Because Kendrick would leave the stage as if the set was done, and all of the lights would go out. Then people start yelling Kendrick, Kendrick, Then all you hear is "Now I was raised In a Sandbox." THEN YOU HEAR A LOUD DOOT DOOT DOOT WHILE THE LIGHTS ARE FLICKERING. I HAD AN OUTER BODY EXPERIENCE. KENDRICK LEFT EARTH ON CARTOONS AND CEREAL
This song is a classic! It was the first song I heard form K Dot and it’s still as 🔥 today as it was years ago! Glad to see y’all review some classics on the channel!
I can't count how many times I've listened to this song and NEVER knew till today that Jermaine Cole produced it. I mean, now I totally hear it and knowing J did it adds a new dimension when re-listening.
This dong was my introduction to Kendrick as well. Thank you for taking us back to this. I had no idea that J.Cole produced this. Thank you for that information. You guys are doing great! keep up the amazing work, for real!
@@ElTrokeroLokochon The beat makes me make… that stank face… every time. Literally makes no sense how he ever found 1 let alone so many cadences on that beat.
The hieroglyphs and pyramids also referenced him building a long lasting legacy, the pyramids are around after thousands of years, a metaphor for how he wants his music perceived.
It’s crazy Cole actually put me on to Kendrick I remember watching one of his Q+A online and he was telling the viewers about Kendrick overly dedicated was out at the time been a fan ever since
The City - Game ft. Kendrick Lamar was the first time I heard him and he absolutely killed it. Originally thought it was an awesome Lil Wayne verse. That’d also be an awesome song to see you cover.
I have literally been waiting for years to get this reaction! ive been following you guys for 5 years, and this song right here, ive allways wanted to see your reaction to. This is one of the best Kendrick lamar songs and with a insane beat This is a huge on!! Big ups from Denmark
Abit of back story: Alori Joh (26:32) was one of the singers in TDE, and also was Absoul's girlfriend. She committed suicide and Absoul made a song called : The book of Soul, where he was speaking about her. I've never heard Absoul rap with such passion and hurt in my life, and he even broke down and cried on the verse. PLEASE REACT TO THE BOOK OF SOUL BY ABSOUL, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.
I’m in full support of this lane. You guys put me on hella game as far as hip hop goes. been watching you guys since i was 17, i’m 24 now been a long journey
I was listening to J Cole a lot back then. Then I saw this song 'prod. by J Cole' and thought, lemme listen to that. Still one of my favorite Kendrick songs
What I would give to hear this again for the first time. This was my pump up song for track events. Nothing got me more hype back in the day. Thank you for this!
Just want to give you guys a shout out, I've seen something like 10 million reaction channels over the years and you've always been one of the best, by far. Genuine, in-depth, fun. Love the passion and it's never changed.
the idea of making own hieroglyphs makes me roll my eyes and yet he even has the line you cant help but smile or smthg like that. Simply a song that hits hard, glad i heard it late rather than never
Truly think it’s arguable that this is his best project, not that his other projects aren’t good but to me I don’t think he will top this. 10+ years later and still know all the words to pretty much every song on Section 80
I liked the ‘So Appalled’ interpolation with the “5 star dishes, food for thought bitches. I mean this shit is…” when I first heard this too One of my Kendrick songs fr
Let's be real: Younger audience will love the exposure/education that they NEED from the classics, AND Older audiences will appreciate the music they love FINALLY getting the respect it deserves Big fan of this content!
Kendrick established a good motif which is in fact reminiscent of how revolutionaries operate. You keep chipping away at the same block until gain headway. He was also drawing parallels between the methods of King & X. One was more for passive change whilst the other was a radical.
First K Dot song I ever heard was an old one called “Keisha Song” - one of the best tracks till this day in my opinion, amazing storytelling of a true event even though tragic
With everything that is happening,most of us are a paycheck away from being homeless,hope we are all prepared,get yourself an alternate source of income
I’m going to comment again because I’m listening to this reaction today - My guys - this beat and rap I feel has a big argument for this to be one of the best rap beats ever made 🕺🏼 big up J Cole 🤌🏼 This is REPEAT mode on the playlist - People playing with Cole ? Funny u saying that because that man is one of the BEST to ever to do it. So talented 🕺🏼 K dot on this is just pure 🔥 Say less 🫡
Hey guys, first off I wanna as a younger guy who loves old school/classic hip hop I can’t even begin to tell you how much I’ve appreciated your breakdowns and opinions over the years. Since I was 16 y’all have had such an impact on how I consume music and you’ll never know how much your channel has really helped me through some of the tougher times. Without dragging this on too long, I think revisiting older music is such a good idea and I’d highly recommend Kendrick’s “The Heart” series (specifically Pt. 2👏🏾) especially since Pt. 5 really resonated with you guys. Hope y’all end up seeing this and shout out to the free thinkers 🫡
Will always be My favorite album from Kendrick. From the album cover to the chill vibe and just the raw talent and bars. The only miss for me on the album is no makeup. Poe mans dreams is his most underrated song imo
Lost in Vegas !!!! I’m kinda knew to yall channel and I got to say yall probably the best lyric break downers I’ve seen !! Lol I need more Kendrick, Cole , jid y’all know that type shit 😂😂😂 like actually music with substances 🤷🏾♂️ tryna learn something but keep doing the good work brothers ✊🏾
this is one of the first Kendrick songs ive heard. When I heard this I was legit blown away. He got me into that mindset of really paying attention to the perils of the industry and looking beyond the surface of everything peculiar
But also when you moonwalk the feet don't leave the ground, so the landmine won't blow up. In essence, he wants to blow up soon while making it look easy (gliding) to others who can't see the danger he's gliding over. One of my all-time favourite Kendrick lines 🤞🏾
Even further back the album before Section 80, Overly Dedicated, has a lot of heat on it! Good kid was my introduction, too, but I immediately fell in love with S80 and it still is my favorite album years later in terms of replay-ability.
J. Cole is absolutely underrated as a producer. This beat is flawless imo.
Cole has never missed as a producer in my opinion. Bro just knows what sounds good
I 100% agree. Makes me sad that they haven’t moved forward with their collaborative album they were working on.
facts
Mac’s Hurt Feelings too great beat
Cole jacked this beat & altered it.
that whole Section 80 Tracklist is timeless
His best album/my favorite
Too me
@@lamonragland6433my favorite as well. I was Bumping this everyday going to high school.
bruh i ALWAYS go back to it wen i wanna hear sun real shit. really hope they could review overlydedicated as well tho.
Facts
Timeless...and overlydedicated The Heart pt 2 ...crazy. the replayablility
Huuuuuge. This was the first song I heard from Kendrick that had me going “he’s next”. Crazy to see how he blew up
Facts!!!!!!! Brings back memories
Wished he would have kept this flow
Same here!!!
@@kennyofatoboiyo7447then he wouldn't have gotten where he is now
@@MrBrizzle1oh no a world without humble, the horror! what would we do ?!?
CRAZY how much this still holds up. One of those songs where even though you haven’t heard it in years, you remember all the words. It just sticks with you.
Kendricks back catalogue in a nutshell
I started rapping along before Kendrick even started rapping lol.
Kendrick Lamar + J Cole = timeless Art!
Kendrick Lamar + Kanye West
stop making them a duo. they are not the same
@@blackgrlfly i dont get it too Kdot is on a differnt planet to Jcole , cole is good by he aint kdot level musically and intelligence lyrics, its like saying biggie / lil uzi
@@vkjfvyou're either delusional insane... Cole got Kdot tf outta here when they got on American Dream..GTFOH
@@vkjfvno way you compare jcole to lil uzi
This song still gives me the same feeling from when I first heard it.
PLEASE DO MORE OF SECTION 80 , it’s criminally slept on
Man idk why they don’t do album reactions
@@felix3033 because it would be a 24hr video.
@@DEEM_ONE😂you right
@@DEEM_ONElmao
This is one of the greatest rap songs of all time.
The first Kendrick song I ever heard was Cartoons & Cereal ft. Gunplay.. I was obsessed. Kendrick definitely has some classics.
Same here…
Goated song 🤯
Same
I remember sleeping on that song when it first dropped. Like I probably didn’t press play for a month or so. When I finally did. This shit was on repeat. Was low key disappointed it didn’t make good Kid.
i still play that song when no one knows wtf it is. lol
One of my fave Kendrick songs and one of my favorite J Cole beats. Crazy combination. Great to see you guys react/review this one.
Section 80 is amazing. HiiiPower, ADHD, rigamortis, kush and Corinthians, and the list goes on. Phenomenal album
rigamortis is below par
@@leenyashasamboko909 that’s fine. Music is subjective
@@leenyashasamboko909no
Classic song keep it up
Y’all need to do the whole mixtape. This was my introduction to Kendrick back in 2011/2012
This was 🔥🔥🔥. Kendrick came on the scene and never left the game the same. Much love guys
This songe his like a fine wine 🍷 🙌🏾 thank God for J.COLE and KENDRICK

Had to come back here after the diss reactions to restore my faith in these dudes. Ryan got caught up and didn't want to give Kendrick his flowers
It’s really not that deep OR personal lmao

That "ignorance is bliss" song 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@ElTrokeroLokochon The beat makes me make… that stank face… every time. Literally makes no sense how he ever found 1 let alone so many cadences on that beat.
Opposites Attract makes me cry almost every time. Average Joe is a timeless “Dot” record. Facts.

This is a huge on!!
Big ups from Denmark
This was one of the first Kendrick song for me! Haven’t looked back since!!!!! 2011 was a great year
This could be released today and be fire. I love this damn song and Cole did his thing on this track
My favorite Lamar song and it was produced by Cole 🐐
such a classic, always great hearing your thoughts

this song made me love Kendrick Lamar and I still listen to this to this day and never get tired of it
Saw this and was like can’t believe I haven’t seen this yet, realized it’s new lol. Can’t wait to enjoy this
I'm so happy yall blew up for just doing your thing. Been watching you guys a while. Much love, and hope you and yours are all well.
I’m in full support of this lane. You guys put me on hella game as far as hip hop goes. been watching you guys since i was 17, i’m 24 now been a long journey
I was listening to J Cole a lot back then. Then I saw this song 'prod. by J Cole' and thought, lemme listen to that. Still one of my favorite Kendrick songs
Classic Song, classic beat, classic lyrics. I was in high school when Section.80 dropped and it’s still in rotation to this day 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cole jacked this beat...still dope. But not his.
*proceeds to insert to this day meme*
I was a senior as well when Section 80 dropped . What a time
Good music is timeless. this aged very well. there's a reason its called classic music. Kendrick Lamar came in legendary.
What I would give to hear this again for the first time. This was my pump up song for track events. Nothing got me more hype back in the day. Thank you for this!
Section.80 has always been my favorite Kendrick project and one of my favorite projects of all time
This and Kieshas Song kinda just did it for me the second I heard those two songs I knew he was going to do insane things for the rap genre.
This song just brings you back. You know a song is good when the sound just brings you back to an era when you heard it.
Just want to give you guys a shout out, I've seen something like 10 million reaction channels over the years and you've always been one of the best, by far. Genuine, in-depth, fun. Love the passion and it's never changed.
Thanks for this throwback y'all should do more
top 5 favorite kendrick tracks all time, this song made me a fan
That's very debatable
@@tumainikhumalo545 no doubt
Definitely my 2nd favorite track from this debut album. ADHD is my favorite.
Section 80 was , in my opinion, Kendrick’s best offering next to GKMC.. nostalgic af
a true classic. this album helped get me into hip hop.
the idea of making own hieroglyphs makes me roll my eyes and yet he even has the line you cant help but smile or smthg like that. Simply a song that hits hard, glad i heard it late rather than never
Always happy to see some Kendrick!
Section 80 is a classic to me. Does not get enough recognition.
Truly think it’s arguable that this is his best project, not that his other projects aren’t good but to me I don’t think he will top this. 10+ years later and still know all the words to pretty much every song on Section 80
ive always held this up as his best... will die on that hill every day of the week
@@BigChilleha my people
I think the true testament to Kendrick’s talent and artistry is that you can make the argument for any of his albums being his best
What a powerful song!!..Still get goosebumps like the first time I heard it👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼thank you
This is long overdue. So glad y’all are listening to this one
Aye mate, as part of those 8 motherfuckers, I am one of them and I absolutely appreciate you lads. Love from the land of the aussies ❤
This is when you guys are untouchable, proper breakdown what brought me to your channel in the first place 🔥🔥🔥👊🏿
Thank you!!!! Y’all don’t know how hype I was to see this pop up on my feed!! Please do more old Kdot!!!
There's a new track out from Mick Jenkins called " smoke break-dance " featuring JID - that's mandatory for you guys
I liked the ‘So Appalled’ interpolation with the “5 star dishes, food for thought bitches. I mean this shit is…” when I first heard this too
One of my Kendrick songs fr
I can remember the day I first heard this track. Forever changed my life and I immediately knew Kendrick would be a legend.
Looking back at this video i should have known Ryan was a hater of Kendrick because how tf you haven’t heard hiipower🤦🏾♂️
Going back in time! Going back to top Mixtape/Project Debuts: Joey Bada$$ and his 1999 mixtape has to be up there 🔥 🔥
Classic!!!🔥🔥🔥 hope to see more old school reactions
Needed this Kendrick needs more appreciation on UA-cam
One of the greatest songs in hip hop in my opinion truly timeless classic
miss when ya’ll used to do stuff like this glad to see a reaction to a great song
Turn me up by Kendrick Lamar and Ab-soul is a classic
Classic!
Kendrick has put out so many great songs and albums so far, but this is still a top 5 Kdot song for me. Wow, a true artist!
One of your best reactions to what I think is one of the best rap songs of the last 2 decades 🔥🔥👑
Produced by j Cole is also something!!
Let's be real:
Younger audience will love the exposure/education that they NEED from the classics, AND
Older audiences will appreciate the music they love FINALLY getting the respect it deserves
Big fan of this content!
The classic stuff hit different. 😪👑🤞
I like how you guys are doing some older stuff, definitely will be on the lookout for more 💯
Always love some throwback reactions
My #1 Kendrick song since I first heard it like more than a decade ago now I think.
Cartoons & cereal was my introduction to Kendrick Lamar.
Kendrick established a good motif which is in fact reminiscent of how revolutionaries operate. You keep chipping away at the same block until gain headway. He was also drawing parallels between the methods of King & X. One was more for passive change whilst the other was a radical.
Still to this day my favourite Kendrick track and the reason I am still hoping for a whole project with Cole
I love the analysis gents. As much as I heard this song you guys gave me a different perspective of the lyrics
First K Dot song I ever heard was an old one called “Keisha Song” - one of the best tracks till this day in my opinion, amazing storytelling of a true event even though tragic
As a guy with a widows peak i can confirm we keep our shit edged up. You'll never know 😂
Thanks for coming back to this
With everything that is happening,most of us are a paycheck away from being homeless,hope we are all prepared,get yourself an alternate source of income
Jesus Christ can you bots stfu with these threads?
Big fan of how you went back into the rappers older discography - It'd be cool if we saw more of this stuff! Or finding their old hidden gems

I just looked up the track list for Section 80 and I forgot how many great songs it has. Time to revisit this classic for a while
Been in ur rotation for a couple days now huh?
Keisha’s Song creeps up on me every time.
Great introduction to how these classic reviews could work. Love it.
They need to drop that Joint album. I still got hopes they will one day
This was very cool. I'd love you guys to go back (way back) & do some classic hip hop reviews & reflect on it with older wiser heads.
