@20:00ish MOST AMAZING THING I'VE HEARD SAID ON REACTION IS 'IF THIS WAS A RELIGION I WOULD JOIN IT'....we embrace u pedagouge & bathe u in his mind wrapped round his tongue, best fool-aid ever. That said, not only do 'promoted' acts rhyme bout TRASH they don't even do it on the level of CAT in the HAT. to end every line in a bar w/ the same word, is disgustingly pathetic. How do Drake or aSap rocky look fools in the eye. THEY'RE LIKE OUR TERRENCE & PHILLIP FROM SOUTH PARK, just farting in folks faces. to the point of it has to be on purpose! VERSUS every 3 word phrase of Aesop's enlightens. I TAUGHT HIS LYRICS IN YOUTH ARTS PROGRAM BUT THINK IN TEENS STUDIED HIS LYRICS IN SCHOOL THE SUICIDE RATE WOULD PLUMMET
"If quieter than most, then mostly mastering the science of keeping one's composure while the limbic system's lighting up." That is some masterful wordplay.
Still bullseye and woomp rats through the scenic route, sugar in my coffee, like a seance in a TV room " Man this dudes still going to be talked about In 2150
I’ve been listening to Aes since the Labor Days days. As impressed as I am with how he’s perfected his vocal delivery & writing over the years, I’m even more impressed with his production on this album. This album is having an impact on me like “The Chronic” had when I was in high school. BTW, the lyrics on this album probably make way more sense to those of us whom have had multiple psychedelic experiences.
Well said sir... "how u woke? and u ain't tripped once"....lol.. but yeah I feel you homie... his vocals have gotten crisp and the delivery is hypnotic asf on this album. Much luv my dude..thanks for the feedback
YO! At around 13:15 homie compared him to a modern day Shakespeare! I told my bro that Aes is the reincarnation of Shakespeare a while back and he laughed. I made him read his lyrics. He’s def channeling some serious genius shit in his raps man. He’s bringing us some conceptual shit. The closest thing I can think of is Deltron and I love the shit they collaborated with Wu-Tang together. Shit is so dope. When I heard Lupe Fiasco and Chuck D give Aesop props, I knew then this kid is legit.
this album is a masterpiece. as a hip hop fan and an occultist this album isnt just good listening, it actually lives up to it's claim of being a field guide. this album has literally saved my life during my astral travels. "some try to combat any kind of odd force tryna make contact, nah/ let it in let it in" in my circles this will absolutely save your hide.
You guys are awesome I been on Aesop since 2005 it's been a ride from Labor Days till now he's still putting out dope music while the mainstream has just become more and more trash he's still dedicated to the craft and the art.
Modern day Shakespeare. I think you have said it the best. It should actually be The HipHop Shakespeare. Can you imagine if hiphop was a thing back in the day? Probably sound like this hahahahaha
What just FLOORS me is his casual mastery of words, to the point where after like the 15th time through I'm still deciphering new shit! His words flow like a living instrument, that has hooks in the hooks, and you feel him taking REAL LIFE shit, (ptsd, depression, pain) and he just melts everything into the sickest bars!!! All the respect on Mr. Rock's name, and much respect and love to y'all! From this hip hop Junkie, thanks for the fix! Not sure if you have covered him already or not, but real talk, Brother Ali is another artist who is NEXT L!! Anyway, y'all stay safe and healthy
12:54 Classic line. He does research his words. He would look through science magazines and specificly look for new words. Also, if you gentlemen haven't checked out Eyedea yet, you are depriving yourselves of good stuff. First Born, The Many Faces Of Oliver Hart, E&A, and his fourth album if you're into experimental stuff.
aesop is one of my favorite emcees... I heard Jonathan about 6 years ago and then heard shrunk and i clicked on dorks and then pulled up rap genius to follow the words... never have I ever been so blown by wordplay and choice of vocab... I am a true fan of Aesop... one of the reason I do this channel... to expose people to my favorite artists.... like Deca, Cambatta, Durrty Goodz, K-Rino and Aesop Rock and many more .. thnaks for the watching and rocking wit ya boy... holla
@hiphopjunkie I initially thought you were both going to goof off through the video and miss a lot of the detail, but nice job bringing it back to the lyrics and giving it a shot over and over again. I'm seeing too many people listen once straight through and post the video, really low effort. You and your kid have something nice going here, keep it up.
Yessss more aesop🔥🔥🔥 Peep the impossible kid album. Its the most digestible. and also the Skelethon album. Notable songs: Rings, cycles to Gehenna, zero dark thirty, shrunk, none shall pass, catacomb kids.
So glad you guys dig Aes- good news for you, he hits his 25th anniversary in music next year- his EP Appleseed droop in 1997. Meaning, you got decades of his blowing your mind to catch up on. Recommend literally everything he's done. If you want to see a good one he did for a video game, check out "Drums on the Wheel": ua-cam.com/video/N1iUN-J-lSs/v-deo.html. Keep up the reactions; welcome to the cult of Aesop Rock :)
Really liked the end part, the younger person talking about profanity. I'm very much pro-profanity. But when someone rises above ever needing that it's amazing.
I LOVE HipHopJunkie for how much he rewinds soo who should he cave/cater to? if an aesop reaction isn't twice as long as the song i'm bummed. I REWIND 10+ TIMES TO EVERY AESOP TRACK I LISTEN TO IN MY CAR. He can easily & should be broken down into 3 word increments. If ur not staring at a painting for an hour it isn't art
@@HipHopjunkieshow MAN I REWIND UR REACTION VIDS THAT I'V WATCHED MULTIPLE TIMES SOOOOO, SO MUCH APPRECI8N 4 UR IMMERSIVE STYLE! @11:27 ish UR REACTIONS GIVE ME THAT FACE buuutttt UR SON'S ABILITY TO PUT WORDS 2 UNIQUE INSIGHTS IS .....WOW.

Aesop rock is one of if not the best ever at putting words to paper. Period.
"..tall grass, asphalt, to saltflat.." any terrain.
It's all jazz, like an alphabet to Saul Bass... (people need to look up who Saul Bass is)
Really nasty bars in this one, stank face throughout.
Yes sir
You guys got it. Hope you cover more Aesop. I love to see hip-hop heads recognizing the genius.
I’ve been listening to Aes since the Labor Days days.

I just realized I've been listening to him since I was 20...im 42!!
Been to the spirit world a few
GOAT
Yes indeed
"SURE DID NOT BRO" 💀 🤣🤣

As a fellow Astralnaut safe travels on the curve my friend for straight is not the way... Wholeness and Balanced Vibrations
If you die before you die then when you die you won't die.
Bro really stopped at 7 minutes in to be like "no homo" lmao
We had fun making this one
I always thought this song was about a ghost story from the perspective of the ghost
Bingo.
Aesop Rock's IQ is passed 150 with the poetic infrences he throws at you. Hard to follow, but everything he says, says something.
I LOVE how you two love this shit. You make great content.
The one true GOAT
You guys are awesome I been on Aesop since 2005 it's been a ride from Labor Days till now he's still putting out dope music while the mainstream has just become more and more trash he's still dedicated to the craft and the art.
10:00 Bro your son looks so done with your shit lmaooo I love the dynamic
He was on a sugar crash.... lol
Love the reaction. Thank you for showing Aes the respect. And also keeping it fun. This reaction made me a follower.
I LOVED this reaction! Will be running through all your Aesop reviews.
Kawl Beans... check out deca and sandman if like sop... thanks for the luv .. it's all for the culture
@@HipHopjunkieshow I will - thanks.
Did you just compare Aesop to Shakespeare? Amazing thought 👏
Solid let the youth learn.
im pretty sure he made Long Legged Larry for kids lol, also the mobile game is kinda fun too lol
Oh for real
6:54 ⏸️
you two are jokes! 😂 love it and respect anyone reacting to Aesop. 💜
Modern day Shakespeare. I think you have said it the best. It should actually be The HipHop Shakespeare. Can you imagine if hiphop was a thing back in the day? Probably sound like this hahahahaha
Tall grass, asphalt, or salt flat
It’s all jazz like an alphabet to Saul Bass
bro "its all jazz like an alphabet to saul bass" is absolutely insane. i love that line so much
@@LockheedLazar Had to have it explained to me - amazing. The breadth and depth of Aesop's knowledge is astounding (and humbling).
@@lorib360 as usual with aes, i didnt get it either, until i googled saul bass and went OH WOW THATS CRAZY
Any condition, he'll chop it up and build his own road out of it.
What just FLOORS me is his casual mastery of words, to the point where after like the 15th time through I'm still deciphering new shit! His words flow like a living instrument, that has hooks in the hooks, and you feel him taking REAL LIFE shit, (ptsd, depression, pain) and he just melts everything into the sickest bars!!!

I've heard Bring Back Pluto and The Mayor and The Crook 100s of time, still don't totally understand either of them.

RIDICULOUS! 🔥
Aye dogg this shit makes me so happy i fuck with yall 🤣
Aesop is God mode Lyricism. Peep the impossible kid record. It’s the most readily digestible👌🏾
aesop is one of my favorite emcees... I heard Jonathan about 6 years ago and then heard shrunk and i clicked on dorks and then pulled up rap genius to follow the words... never have I ever been so blown by wordplay and choice of vocab...

Not sure if you've checked out Malibu Ken or Hail Mary Mallon, but both feature Aes, and both are solid projects.
homie it's a tuesday. . .
@hiphopjunkie
I initially thought you were both going to goof off through the video and miss a lot of the detail, but nice job bringing it back to the lyrics and giving it a shot over and over again. I'm seeing too many people listen once straight through and post the video, really low effort. You and your kid have something nice going here, keep it up.
Thank Bruv
You know it is a good review of Aes when it is a 24 minute react of a sub 4 minute song.
Nice to see people react to Aesop. Y'all should review Aesop's "Racing Stripes"
Check out Aesop Rock - Cat Food, production by Blockhead. Beat so nice you can swim in it.
I feel like since you liked Long Legged Larry so much you should do The Harbor is Yours off None Shall Pass it's one of my favs
Em and ase would be an awesome collab something tells me ems scared of being overseown but I think ase is so humble that he would let him win😊
IMHO... Aes and Deca is better collab... Em and Crooked would be a fire collab
the only difference between beethoven and bach is aesop rock is he hasnt died yet
Talks about shit he dont got and what he does at the same time 😊😊😊
11:43 This was also my reaction to those bars gasp for gasp. I call it the Aes FX.
You skipped 'Kodokushi' on your album review. You need to check that. Trust.
defnitly and skipped : Fixed and Dilated...maybe the best track of the album!: ua-cam.com/video/lXJzX2hto_k/v-deo.html
Ian's not here.
Yessss more aesop🔥🔥🔥
Peep the impossible kid album. Its the most digestible. and also the Skelethon album.

Try beat matching.
Challenge Accepted
i don't coexist / i don't exsst / Even JC mssed 'em wth the loaves and fsh.
15:30 TFW Aesop Rock destroys your mind
You said it, he's a genius, but he's still just talking shit about how bad ass he is!! He embarrasses every other rapper !
If you like aesop...check this artist

22:42 You have a sub for life.
Man rewind like once or twice per song for a good bar this vid could've been like 4 minutes long
Hip Hop Junkie Trait... rewind to remind the sublime.
