    the song is mostly about spiritually awakening/ ego death and coming to terms with life being and endless cycle of ups and downs (also referenced in the music video. the entire the fool mixtape is very layered, the fool itself is most likely a reference to the tarot card, being the first in the deck signifying the first stage of someone on their spiritual journey, kinda like the first part of the hero's journey structure that writers love to use. the beatles also referenced it on their song "the fool on the hill" which is a literal refence to what's depicted in the card
    also: the video you're talking about isn't bizarre love triangle, that's the one with the supercut type montage of various random imagery and with the people jumping/falling to a sky backdrop lol

    I love how how light enters from the window around 5:26 right when Bladee enters the higher vocal register. That's how I feel internally whenever that part kicks in!

    Rumour has it that one time Oloff was sat next to Jar Jar Binks on a flight. Jar Jar kept kicking the chair in front of him and generally being obnoxious, nobody knew what to do. Eventually one of the flight attendants came over and asked Oloff if he would perform one of his songs to calm Jar Jar down, and when Oloff began rapping the first verse to Doing It Stealthy, Jar Jar immediately relaxed. To this day the two are still close friends.

    i really think when you have the time you should really react to gluee, u reacted to deletee (intro) which is the intro to gluee in which i remember you liking and noticing his sound being different than it usually is, you mentioned sounding like a choir and that was such a good way to describe it, i think the use of autotune is even more robotic than his other works as u heard in deletee, and i think its one of his best works. the autotune seems so inhumane but there is so much emotion in it which is such a strange contradiction but its so beautiful. its truly nothing like ive ever heard before the emotion is so raw but also so drenched with vocal effects, and when you think about the production and use of certain effects its so brilliant especially for it being in 2014. I think it really did start a new wave for cloud rap even though it didnt get the recognition it deserved until later when he got more fame. Its said to be a drain classic to drainers and i agree, its in my top 3 bladee albums. I adore his new works so much i dont have a preference for his old or new music but it is truly a one of a kind experience. You could tell he was early in his music life (even tho he as 20 at that point and had experimented and dropped stuff but never officially before) and he was figuring out his sound and his emotions and who he is in general but its done so well. i hope my praise doesnt make it disappointing and for most people it might take a couple listens but once it clicks it is undescribable. I also think you are one of, if not the most open minded music reactor on youtube and i think you can find the beauty and appeal in everything you hear even if it isnt for you which is so admirable so i think youll enjoy it and see the depth behind his lyrics, vocals, and production. also deletee is kinda different to the rest of gluee, the use of autotune stays consistent and there are times where this choir effect happens again but not so similarly, and he does "rap" too which he didnt do in deletee.
    ps: ik this is a weird place to leave this comment cos its not the same project but i figured ud have a higher chance seeing this, loved the egobaby reaction too btw i love his evolution of his spirituality over the years :) i think its so cool to see his spiritual awakening, like when he says "i tried to tell them about the night they didnt understand, i tried to show them that theres beauty and theres magic in the air, they didnt understand, theres shadow in the light, open up ur mind theres no day without the night" it seems like hes coming to terms with the fact that theres good and bad, and the bad can truly be beautiful, these themes r brought out in other of his works too but its so nice to see him accept this compared to eversince for example, in which he seemed fed up only looking at the negatives of life and himself and his losses. which does make sence when you think about what he was going through at the time, but its so heartwarming to see him doing better spiritually and looking at loss (and gain) in a new perspective.
    him talking about sacrificing ego and letting go is another theme in his newer music, its anti-human body, pro soul, finding the true meaning of this and realizing that an ego is just an obstacle or barrier blocking the path to better spirituality and perspective.
    like you said theres many ways to interpret this song as well as a lot of his other music but this is how i see this specifically, i could kinda talk abt this forever but this is way too long already oops
