    When I first discovered Reggie, I had to go on a deep dive of his performances to figure out what his real voice sounded like. He had this thing where he almost never used his normal speaking voice for a couple years and it was wild.

    Reggie thrives on making the audience feel uncomfortable and clueless about what they are witnessing, and then hitting them with some incredible harmonies, so good!

    What I love about this (and Reggie) is that there's barely any understandable phrases in this song, and yet I know all the words and it feels like I've heard it before.

I've replayed it so many times. Love every little bit of it, even the tie-in with the music going to the commercial. Thanks for posting it and for the performance! :)

      @CC yes.. cause tiktok is extremely important in our generation and I judge everyone's importance based on how much following that person has on tiktok. I live and die by tiktok. The world would collapse without tiktok. And because Reggie doesn't have presence in tiktok, I'm saying he is not famous. Your shining intelligence has blinded my vision. I bow before your wisdom, oh wise one.
