LOL Face Famous can spend 20 minutes on an elite spit that's only 1 minute long to make sure he catches everything and educate why this Tape is on another level.
You’re amazingly knowledgeable in rap and hip hop classic and current. Thank you for breaking down my girl’s. (XG) bars. You’re more or less the first reactor I’ve seen to give them enough cred to deserve breakdowns.
Jurin is basically addressing the haters in the k-pop community. Her theme is being the CEO so basically she is Simon in this video. Simon calls their sound x-pop partially because he doesn't want to be limited to k-pop but also I think he knew they wouldn't be accepted by a lot of k-pop fan bases
No rap parity is one of the hardest line that's been completely missed by all reactors expect you. So many don't understand that "parity" word /line. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Jurin is the leader of XG. The hard act to follow line was also great because on tape 2 she was the last one to rap, and now her her tape 4 was the last one to be released, so everybody thought they were done. Then two days later they released the Trampoline song with the 4 rappers, surprising everybody.
Jurin is the master of the doubles and triples. She's a mad scheme master, references inside references and call backs with few spit and word play. She likes to say that she doesn't lead her girls but gets lit with them, but Alphaz knows why she's the leader of the group. IMO she is hot in the traditional sense and will always be my bias.
That WWE Raw and Kayfabe bar went hard imo. Royce da 5'9 bar is fire too especially since she was also referencing the fact she is short. She got made fun of for it when she did a Tiktok with another group that had a much taller member.
"Jurin got the fire flame flavor. When the spice kicks you taste the game changer". It's a line from her Tape 2 verse. It's a must my guy. I'm loving the break downs homeboy. Nice reaction ✌🏾
I think when she says "stirring up the pot, whoo" the whoo also kind of sounds like "Roux" as in the mix of flour and fat used in cooking to thicken sauces and soups.
Straight making gumbo on they a$$ 😂 Someone must be from the Dirty cause now Harvey has her Mardi Gras ‘float’ line in Woke Up. (Comin from this lil Down south Cajun 😜)
Btw. I believe Chancellor and Day Day helps them with writing, Simon probably helps out as well. However like you said they still have to do the studying and put in the work, they also make suggestions as well. Especially since English is their 3rd language obviously they would need help translating from Japanese to English anyway.
So many reactors focus way to much on if they write or not. How many rappers need to learn to dance and sing too. They are learning the rest writing producing and choreography
@@chrislambert9903big facts. So many rappers nowadays are terrible performers and show up late or not at all. These girls dance, sing, perform, and rap at a high level. All under 25
Xpop stirrin up the pot - also throwing shade to those who criticize XG for making their own genre separate from being Kpop . . . XG from the get go always said that they are NOT Kpop, rather, they prefer to be deemed as Xpop
Brother, what an AWESOME channel you have, amazing content, i've learn a lot from you! Subscribe yesterday because of your reaction video of Woke Up, and since then i've seen all of your XG reaction videos, guess i will have to watch other reactions because you carry tons of knowledge!!! Shout-Out to you directly from Brasil my friend!
SEEING YOU JUMP OUT OF YOUR SEAT LIKE THAT AGHHHH 😭😂 made me yell out with you bc she is my TOP favorite member (Harvey like a centimeter behind her haha)!!! Love all the xg love, no other reactors I’ve watched have broken down these tapes so well or so thoroughly. Love the eduction and history lessons as well 😊
@@FaceFamous I really love how you dissecting the 1 minute song finding Baaaaaars that hidden even some listeners didn't catch up and turned into a 20 mins video reactions ❤🔥 I can't imagine how you deciphering a 5 mins full song 😂
@@FaceFamous Both Wagyu and Kobe beef are known for their exceptional marbling and flavor. But Kobe beef is generally considered to be of even higher quality due to its exclusivity and strict production standards. Kobe beef comes from a specific strain of Wagyu cattle in Hyogo Prefecture, while Wagyu beef can come from different Japanese breeds.
This song was made for a dance crew so there is a part in the middle where it’s just the beat for a few seconds so the dancers can get off. The girls start rapping again right after that. Just letting him know so he doesn’t get confused like other reactors.
All of the reactors Gone wild when they got the Shannon Sharp Sheyshey Reference 😂 those Sheyshey and Katt feud was still hot when the time this Tapes dropped
Damn!!! You gotta change the title to "former rapper/rap enthusiast breakdown" bro. So many meaning i didn't catch here. Great work brother. This is some good study for the people who want to get into rap scene.
🙏 appreciate you.😁 I thought about that before a few years ago. ",Former rapper" or "RAP Enthusiast"..you know what I think I'll try that one "Rap. Enthusiast"...thanks man !! And thanks for stopping by and checking out the video!🙏
“Fire flame flavor” is a callback to XG Tape #2. Definitely a must check but be warned, in that particular tape, they are raping and switching around with 3 languages so it can get confusing so I suggest both the video and the lyric video.
Thanks for your reaction LaKaine.🙌🏻 They will be in the US in October.🛸👽🤍🐺 I hope you can see them.😎 Please react to SHOW YOU CAN by XG (Cocona and Maya).🙏🏻 There are a lot of references and bars in that song that are 🔥.
japan has come a long way since i left the land of the rising sun , they bringing it. Bruh , just discovered your channel yesterday , and you have some of the best breakdowns and hip hop history ive seen , keep it coming homeskillet , straight from a old school hip hop head. big ups mane
One thing I don’t think anyone has mentioned is the last two lines referencing rare”wit” and graduated “wit”. There’s a reason she says it like that. Jurin has that “rare” wit not many have. And her level of “wit” has graduated and is high enough to have a pedigree.
If you’re interested, you should check out the color coded lyrics for Tape #2, so you can catch the trilingual bars. For Tape #1, there is also no captions, so you’d have to check out those lyrics separately too; that one is only a bilingual rap, in English and Japanese.
With the tapes the girls write those, that is part of why they focus on references as they are relatively easy lines to get and put together and why they are so short
Thanks for all the breakdowns, I’m learning from you! Also, I believe you mentioned BTS in one of your other XG videos, that they disappeared or you just don’t hear much about them anymore. The reason is most likely due to the fact that most of them are completing their mandatory military service right now. They have a lot of stuff prepared to release while they are gone but it don’t think it’s reaching the western market as much unless you’re a dedicated fan looking for it.
Love the reaction and how you break down everything, there is so many layers in the lyrics. You must watch; XG-HESONOO & X-GENE (Performance Video) It is from their album New DNA, Hesono is lead-off/ intro, and X-Gene is a song in the album that comes right from the intro ant they kind of leavk into one another.
There is a Korean rapper from way back named Perry. He came out with "Storm" where a very very young rapper made his entrance but Perry went silent after the release of "Storm". Long story but I suspect Perry is involved with a lot of the lyrical outlines cause I see middle finger to the Korean censorship bureau in the lyrics. That's why XGALX is Japan based so the SK censors can't touch the lyrics nor the beat nor the gear.
16:50 I took the "No rap parody" line many ways and I appreciate it more and more every time I hear it - I don't rap as a gimmick or just to put it in the song (like the usual kpop formula) - I pay homage to the game by not being wack and deconstructing the beat as hard as I can each time - the history of hip-hop is coded into these verse and sharing it to more people(decipher in cryptography is translating code into readable language)
7:10 Theres a production session for Shooting Star and I'm not surprised that there are black people on their team bro!! So rare for kpop groups to be in touch like that, others will just copy and do it so bad

Very few reactors caught the 5'9" reference 🔥
Yea it was pretty random. Then I'm like I know exactly who she's talking about. 😁🫡
@@FaceFamousalso the line that follows "I know what's realer than hip hop" is from Royce's song Hip-hop

Your very welcome! 🙏 they deserve the props all to much!! I'm a hip hop historian deep into the game
Fire flame flavor is a callback to Tape #2
L infant = "Elephant in the room "
OH shiet. i didnt realize the elephant in the room thing before. damn
Yep , you got it bro
Checking if she still Hot 🔥 🥵

You react in support of these girls sir, and we admire your knowledge too! Shout out to OG!🫡
Thank you very much
I think when she says "stirring up the pot, whoo" the whoo also kind of sounds like "Roux" as in the mix of flour and fat used in cooking to thicken sauces and soups.
🤔 you know what? That tracks
Thank you! Nobody else caught that, not even the lyrics on their own channel, but she's clearly still on the cooking scheme saying 'roux'.
@@Kudos2-someone I think that was intentional, the whoo also still being a play on 59's whoa. I think. Maybe. Their wordplay is amazing.

That Kobe references Kobe Grade beef which is one of the highest grade beef and most expensive you can get.
I thought it was Wagyu. Either way thats a high ass grade of meat. Both of them!

“Standing on my ten toes” references their debut song Tippy Toes. Great breakdown!
Dead Prez's "What's Realer Than Hip Hop?". Did that slide by you?!
Not me 😉 😆
Sure did. I knew I heard it before. But I haven't listened to Dead Prez in soooooooooo long😁.
Great catch🫡
🔥🔥🔥🔥 Jurin!! Love the breakdown and reaction!
Next one is "Show you can" can see maya and Cocona rap in all 3 languages with lyrics.
This song was made for a dance crew so there is a part in the middle where it’s just the beat for a few seconds so the dancers can get off. The girls start rapping again right after that. Just letting him know so he doesn’t get confused like other reactors.
YESSSSSS
Owwshiii nice recommend, that song was Fire and Pure of Bars after Bars after Baaaaaars 🥶
You caught more bars that any reactor for sure, no cap! (And I have seen 50+ reactors to this song too!)

All of the reactors Gone wild when they got the Shannon Sharp Sheyshey Reference 😂 those Sheyshey and Katt feud was still hot when the time this Tapes dropped
Extra terrestrial also means people from outside the planet ie. an alien

It was right there too so close
Dang you watched all 8 episodes of documentary? That was fast lol
