Glad you found Sublime. Bradley struggled with substance abuse, especially heroin. This song uses metaphors to describe his battle. He was a brilliant song writer and a soulful singer. Their genre is usually defined as a mix of Ska, punk, reggae dub. Highly recommend you check out "Summertime / Doin Time" for vibes and soulful take on the classic song, "April 29th, 1992" a song about Rodney king riots, and "Date rape" for his story telling ability. Just months ago, Brad's son Jacob recently took over lead singing duties and reunited the original band members. They played Coachella the last two weeks and are planning to tour. He sounds very much like his father, check them out.
Agreed! Another rappy one but with totally different vibes is Doin' Time. My fave version is the one with the Pharcyde feature, it was on the short album with What I Got (I think). There's just something so chill about the base line, with that drum that reminds me of Outcast's Rosa Parks' sonar sound (somehow the illest possible sound ever), and the cold AF chorus from Bradley: "Summertiiiime, and the livin's easy; Bradley on the microphone with Ras MG; All the people in the dance, will agree that we're - we're qualified to represent the L.B.C, me, me and Louie, We go r-r-r-r-r-run to da party and dance to the rythm! It gets haaaardeeeer... RAAARg." FIRE ASS SHIT yo I'm overdosing on nostalgia for the 90s right now, don't mind me! 🤯🤘
Agree about April 29th 1992!! Also a good fit for “white people music” discussing / being allies with the black community. Fun fact he says April 26th in the song which is the wrong date. You’d love all the early Sublime stuff. Their Genre would be Ska / reggae / hip hop IMO
@@erichighwayThe song has nothing to do with “being an ally.” The song describes the anarchy and destruction the riots caused, and points blame at the police. It doesn’t talk at all about standing up for black people or any of that nonsense. The only mention of black people comes along with a mention of Mexican people. There’s one mention of race in the whole song and it’s not even directly aimed at what you’re talking about
Lou Dog! His Dalmatian doggo buddy. Lou Dog was their mascot. He took that Dog everywhere with him. I read that after Bradley Nowell passed, Lou Dog went into depression. So damn sad! In February 1990, Nowell purchased a Dalmatian puppy from an old man for $500, and named him "Louie" after his grandfather. Also referred to as "Lou Dog", he became a mascot for the band Sublime. Lou Dog was often allowed to wander the stage during concert performances. Louie was also often featured on the cover of Sublime albums, and was referred to in the lyrics of Sublime songs. In Sublime's most successful radio track, "What I Got", Nowell sings, "Livin' with Louie Dog's the only way to stay sane". Another prominent song by the band, "Garden Grove", mentions Lou Dog as such: "We took this trip to Garden Grove. It smelled like Lou Dog inside the van". Following Nowell's death in 1996, Lou Dog was cared for by Michael Happoldt, the band's manager. Lou Dog died from old age on September 17, 2001. Addictionedit
I know I just commented but damn, Sublime always reminds me of the good times we had back then. I almost forgot we had so many. That's what music should do for the soul.
Sublime is SoCal reggae, early 90’s skate/surf Long Beach culture. Making that drive on PCH listening to Sublime smoking a blunt with my late best friend are the memories I’ll cherish forever
“What I Got” was their big national hit. It’s fantastic. Hardcore fans will prolly think that’s basic, but whatever it’s really good. I think the better choice is to listen to “Santeria” next. It’s their #2 biggest hit (more 1A/1B), and probably also a song that hardcore fans will think is basic. But if you’re tryina get a feel for what these guys are all about, vibe-wise it’s a pretty perfect next song to do.
Oh shit, I just saw “April 29, 1992” in the comments and…i might have to revise my answer. If youre from cali, that should be next. If not, yeah - “Santeria” next. Final answer.
@@scootaymildo1070 no they're not lol. It's joke music. You can like them all u want. But liking them and them being a "great" band are 2 different things. Tool is a great band. Metallica. Led Zeppelin. Sublime is not that
You should check out their recent Coachella 24 performance live....His son played both weekends live with Sublime in homage to his Dad. At 28. Beautiful. RIP Bradly.
I'm very glad to hear you exploring the music period loosly defined as "the 3rd wave of ska" Sublime was part of an era where the resurgance of Ska music rooted in the 60's (Al Capone - Prince Buster) that became repopularised in the 80's (Ruder Than You - The Bodysnatchers) then made a comeback in the 90's. Sublime's influence on music of this era cannot be understated. You can see Sublime's influence on music still, in bands like "10ft Ganja Plant"
One of my favorite bands of all time. So glad you were able to react! Not a band you lose your mind to. A band you sit back, chill, light up, comfy vibes.
So Cal Reggae is a very distinct and long gone genre. Sublime were the kings of it. Honestly it was amazing watching someone listen to one of my all time favorite songs for the first time. Took me back 30 years.
Badfish was my absolute favorite. I always wanted to see them live in my teens. I was so heartbroken when he died. He son is playing with them now, and it's sweet.
We'd start with at least 2 reps of Doin Time, cruuuisin the backwoods of NH in a big green boat of a car, bumpin the SHITE out of that bass, blazin a blunt (or more likely a roach someone found on the floor lol). Either way, that bass came on and it got me feelin like the baddest mo fo to ever DO IT! 🤘
Straight feel goods.....RIP Bradley Nowell. I can still remember seeing "What I Got" music video and being hooked instantly.... They are without a genre for me... OG's... reggae/ska/punk/hip hop influenced tunes all goodies
The genre is sublime lol…. We Just went to Sublime show in Orlando… his son Jakob who was like 10 months old when Bradley passed is now the frontman with the original members, it’s a beautiful thing.
Sublime was running in the background of damn near every party of my youth. You need to listen to Santeria. That's probably their greatest song. Same chill party vibe too.
First time watching your channel. Its nice to see the music of my time still giving off the same good vibes in a new generation that's severely lacking pure soulful music. RESPECT
Used to listen a lot of Sublime when mom died when i was 18. Gotta love those cali sunny day vibes or maybe brazilian beach vibes! Much respect from São Paulo, Brasil! We love Sublime over here! Stoners united, anywhere!
I begged my mom for this album when i was in 3rd grade. I was on that vibe early. After i got the album, was a tape by the way, i sat.in my room with my mickey mouse tape player amd listened to this tape non stop. I got a notebook and tried to write down every lyric i could. About a month after i got the album, i saw news on mtv that Bradley died. Other than Cobain, this was one of the first musicians i ever heard of dying. Rob, my guy, you hitting the deep feels with h all your videos lately, its like you are just picking a song from my cd case. Keep it up my guy.
Thanks for listening to sublime. It was cool of you to actually look up Brad and give him some respect. It's actually crazy, his son just performed as the front man for Sublime at Coachella the same age that his dad passed away.
To the best of my knowledge, singer songwriter Brad Nowell died shortly before the release of the third self titled album in 1996. Since then the band has continued writing music with different frontmen using the moniker "Sublime with [Insert Stagename Here]"
Man they have so many good songs. Most of them are pretty chill like this and short it's an easy rabbit hole to go down. Caress me down and pawn shop are 2 of my favorites.
Good shit man, Sublime is super underrated. Love that you checked them out, they have a surprising amount of bangers given how short we were blessed with his soul. 3 studio albums, an alt cut album (Second Hand Smoke) and a fire live album (Stand By Your Van). They are a blend of rock/ska/reggae/punk w/ occasional hip hop undertones. For more Sublime to get started, check out: -Cisco Kid -Pawnshop -Were Only Gonna Die for our Arrogance -Don’t Push -Garden Grove -What I Got and my one of personal favorites… -Work That We Do from Stand by your Van album (live) To understand the beautiful tragedy of Bradley, give Poolshark a listen. It’s a slower song, but haunting AF Cheers
Oh you're going to LIKE the whole sublime catalog..!!!!!!! Very up your alley..!..!!..!!! Genre would be like hip-rock-hop with ska/reggae influences... Sublime the band IS a genre itself to some good extent as well!
Fan since 1993- I even had the original 40 Oz. to freedom T- shirt with the "Skunk records" logo on back. Now I see that shirt at target and American eagle stores- but no judgment to that.
me and my best friend chilling at the beach when we first heard sublime and it blew us away how different and expressive they are. Cali Reggie and they started the trend that rock the new wave Reggie we have here in America. Hold on Rob and get ready to be amazed
40 oz. to Freedom is one of the best albums I've ever heard. It's so freaking good. It's unique. I've never heard anything like it from any other band and yet it's extremely refined. I recommend listening to the whole thing, not just the hits. Some of the best songs on that album are the lesser known ones.
Pawn shop, april 29th 1992, smoke 2 joints, under my voodoo, doin time, garden grove. All bangers. Sadly he passed before the release of their biggest album
Time to get on the ska train!!! So many classic bands going back to the 80s with madness ( our house, one step beyond, my girl) and the specials (nightclub, message to you Rudy, ) to the 90's and 00's with bands like mighty mighty boss tones (impression that I get), reel big fish (beer, take on me,) and less than jake ( all my best friends are metalheads, plastic cup politics, dopeman,) Would love some more SKA!!!
If you're going to listen to more Sublime make sure you put it up on UA-cam bro.. always awesome seeing people discover this band for the first time. You need to check out Summertime, what I got and April 26 (the LA riots song) stay Gold! 😎👍💯🔥
Heyy!!! That’s dope you are enjoying the shit we grew up to here in Southern California. As a 43 year old dude who grew in Long Beach and the Harbor Area of Los Angeles I hope you have chance to explore some more of our local music.
Sublime has always been my go to for just laid back chillin. They have loads of good jams. 5446 that's my number/ ball and chain and Scarlet Begonias are my favorite 2 for sure. Be cool to see you check one of those out
when these guys were coming up in the club/backyard scene, they single handedly changed the whole west side mood around the LA area. up until then it was all fast, hardcore punk music and the vibe was so agro everywhere... they took it down a BUNCH of notches.
Yeah brother! About time we got some Sublime up in here. Yo, that track is off their "40oz to Freedom" album. That entire album is just banger after sweet, sweet banger. I'm thinking livestream album listen/reaction on youtube and/or Twitch. You won't regret.
Its Reggae Rock but Sublime was Ska Punk but recently its Cali Reggae. As soon as you start going down the sublime rabbit hole you are going to find Slightly Stoopid, Denm, Dirty Heads, Common Kings, The Green, Iration, The Elovaters and the list goes on and on and on. There is so much good music out there. Just go follow California Roots on all social media and you will see
Rebelution is great! I'd start with Fade Away. Then I'd listen to The Elovaters. Then Josh Heinrichs. The Green, Common Kings, FIA, Sammy J the greatest vocalist on the planet. The list just goes on and on but I'd start with Slightly Stoopid 1st and watch the live at Robertos Tri Studios...in my humble opinion
@sflo2310 absolutely! That's why I said the list goes on and on and on. Hirie, Rebel Souljahz, J Boog, Fiji, Paul Fuga, Eli Mac, Jonny Suite, Spawn Breezie...Tribal Seeds, Tunnel Vision, Dirty Heads, Katastro (Rip Andy) Artikal Sound System, Soja, Collie Buddz, Pepper, Long Beach Dub All-Stars, The mother effen EXPENDABLES!!!.......see what I mean
You absolutely need to go down the Sublime rabbit hole. If you're looking for soul, you'll find it in every single one of their songs. The song April 26 1992 is a personal favorite.
You should listen to the whole album, 40oz to Freedom. It does not disappoint.
Absolutely their best album, not a skippable track on the whole thing.
💯
(S)He didnt want to
Probably my favorite album of all time so good. I remember getting it right when it came out.
Flawless album

I'm seeing them in 5 weeks at Point Break Festival! Lifetime dream unlocked!!! ❤️💛💚
Oh snap, I didn't know Jakob took over in Sublime, though I've been digging on his other band LAW and can definitely hear his dad's influence there.
@@christophertilstra3961 it seems daddy has took over his soul bro! Had goosebumps watchin it
So no more Sublime with Rome?
@@Hi.Im.Chucky Rome is playing a few last shows but not with the actual Sublime members, then he is moving on to doing his own thing.
Sublime has a wide range of styles. "April 29th 1992" is a dope rap-ish song about the Rodney King riots. Highly reccomend.
Agreed. That's totally a song you should checkout
Absolutely

"What I got" "doin time" "caress me down" "april29th 1992" "santeria" "date rape"
Sublime has an amazing discography for their short run
All 5 of those are my favorite Sublime song...as is Garden Grove, Badfish, and Two Joints...
Sublime is the definition of "Vibe". RIP Bradley. Idc what anyone says, one of the GOAT vocalists. ✌🏽

SoCal reggae is its own vibe. Hip hop, r&b, reggae, ska, and rock all rolled into one smooth joint.
I'd smoke that.
Sublime is SoCal reggae, early 90’s skate/surf Long Beach culture. Making that drive on PCH listening to Sublime smoking a blunt with my late best friend are the memories I’ll cherish forever
I’ve been a sublime fan since ‘96. They fuse rock, reggae, rap, country, punk, dance hall, roots.
Sublime is rad. They were always the one thing you could put on at a party, and nobody would complain
Before playlists, and you had to play whole albums at parties! What a time!
@@jacobslovak7785 mix tapes my guy, always had to have a one for every occasion.
Sublime will always be one of my favorite bands. I got their first CD Robbin in the hood when I was in 8th grade and I was hooked ❤
Yo same exact story for me except it was 40 Oz to Freedom, then Robin shortly after! 90s baby! 🤘
Robin the Hood actually came out after 40 Oz I think
They’re both awesome albums
@@MrAM4D3U5yup, Robin the hood was the second album.
sublime is a vibe for sure, Scarlet begonias, What i got, don't push, are some good ones also!
don't push and badfish are my favs.

One of my favorite bands of all time. So glad you were able to react! Not a band you lose your mind to. A band you sit back, chill, light up, comfy vibes.
That tribute to Bradley Nowell at the beginning got you a sub. Big chunk of my life was spent listening to Sublime.
I MISS this band so much. You're really going to love their music.
I played bass in a band that covered this, great song
I learned a lot of the bass rhythms I know because of learning Sublime. They had such great grooves.
So Cal Reggae is a very distinct and long gone genre. Sublime were the kings of it.
Honestly it was amazing watching someone listen to one of my all time favorite songs for the first time. Took me back 30 years.
This is my favorite Sublime song and most people never hear it only going to the big hits, really glad you enjoyed it.
Sublime is a hidden gem. Glad you found them
If by hidden you mean one of the most popular bands of the 90s, sure lmao
@matt.w9220 was about to say sublime world wide.
I have so many memories to sublime, they rock and give off such good vibes. One love
if you wanna talk about foreshadowing, Then you should hear "Pool Shark" it's about his struggle with drugs.
An absolute vibe. My favorite song of theirs.
One of the best bands. Ever. More Sublime. Any song. They are all dope.
Badfish was my absolute favorite. I always wanted to see them live in my teens. I was so heartbroken when he died. He son is playing with them now, and it's sweet.
Sublime is universal music. You can play it at any party, no matter who the crowd is
Brad was one of a kind. Real talent and lived the life.
Me and my buddies would always throw this song on to start our sessions.
We'd start with at least 2 reps of Doin Time, cruuuisin the backwoods of NH in a big green boat of a car, bumpin the SHITE out of that bass, blazin a blunt (or more likely a roach someone found on the floor lol). Either way, that bass came on and it got me feelin like the baddest mo fo to ever DO IT! 🤘
Soooooo many good sublime tunes... Get Out, Scarlet Begonias, Slow Ride (a personal favorite)... you really cant go wrong with sublime.
Straight feel goods.....RIP Bradley Nowell. I can still remember seeing "What I Got" music video and being hooked instantly.... They are without a genre for me... OG's... reggae/ska/punk/hip hop influenced tunes all goodies

Man they have so many good songs. Most of them are pretty chill like this and short it's an easy rabbit hole to go down. Caress me down and pawn shop are 2 of my favorites.
Good shit man, Sublime is super underrated. Love that you checked them out, they have a surprising amount of bangers given how short we were blessed with his soul. 3 studio albums, an alt cut album (Second Hand Smoke) and a fire live album (Stand By Your Van).

-Were Only Gonna Die for our Arrogance
-Don’t Push
-Garden Grove
-What I Got
and my one of personal favorites…
-Work That We Do from Stand by your Van album (live)
To understand the beautiful tragedy of Bradley, give Poolshark a listen. It’s a slower song, but haunting AF
Cheers
Used to wake and bake with this song damn near every morning
Love your reaction😍more Sublime❤
Oh you're going to LIKE the whole sublime catalog..!!!!!!!
Very up your alley..!..!!..!!!
Genre would be like hip-rock-hop
with ska/reggae influences... Sublime the band IS a genre itself to some good extent as well!
Great first song to listen to for them! So many amazing songs. Bradley’s son is now lead singer with the band and they are currently touring.
Oh homie, Sublime goes hard. April 29th 1992 is a good song, Smoke Two Joints good song. Guy you gotta do more songs with them.
Sublime … is just that … SUBLIME baby 🔥… this was always on the drive, the fire pit, the kitchen party, the chillaxin with the bros and ladies.
Fan since 1993- I even had the original 40 Oz. to freedom T- shirt with the "Skunk records" logo on back. Now I see that shirt at target and American eagle stores- but no judgment to that.
Sublime kicks A$$ so chill music. These are the songs I chill too after boat races
me and my best friend chilling at the beach when we first heard sublime and it blew us away how different and expressive they are. Cali Reggie and they started the trend that rock the new wave Reggie we have here in America. Hold on Rob and get ready to be amazed
Am GX and hispanic in Houston 5thward just radio stations and friends. Crazy world we lived in.
Would love to see your reaction to more Sublime. I bet you've heard some of their songs before, like Santeria or What I got, just in passing.
40 oz. to Freedom is one of the best albums I've ever heard. It's so freaking good. It's unique. I've never heard anything like it from any other band and yet it's extremely refined.

Pawn shop, april 29th 1992, smoke 2 joints, under my voodoo, doin time, garden grove. All bangers. Sadly he passed before the release of their biggest album
Time to get on the ska train!!! So many classic bands going back to the 80s with madness ( our house, one step beyond, my girl) and the specials (nightclub, message to you Rudy, ) to the 90's and 00's with bands like mighty mighty boss tones (impression that I get), reel big fish (beer, take on me,) and less than jake ( all my best friends are metalheads, plastic cup politics, dopeman,)
Would love some more SKA!!!
Definitely check out more sublime. "Doin' Time", "What I got", "April 29th, 1992"... so many good songs.
One of the greats! 5446/Ball and chain is another banger.
Hyped to see this guys kid now at 28 the same age his dad died fronting the band now makes me think of mid 90s I may go to the show
Hands down the best reaction channel. Good work Rob.

He was good friends with Gwen Stephanie, and his son is touring with the band as the singer now. They have been performing with No Doubt.
This band is a mix of punk ska and reggae. They also include hip-hop elements and some of their songs.
Sublime is always a vibe
The 1990's was awesome. I was 15 in 1990. A long time ago
This is my favorite Sublime song
Sublime is the best music to sit around and smoke to.
Heck yeah! More Sublime!
They have soo many diff vibes ❤
Such good vibes man 😮💨
I think you would enjoy all of their music if you like this. I love your open mind.
when these guys were coming up in the club/backyard scene, they single handedly changed the whole west side mood around the LA area. up until then it was all fast, hardcore punk music and the vibe was so agro everywhere... they took it down a BUNCH of notches.
I'm glad you liked this jam. Strait up vibe indeed sir
So many good songs. Sublime is cross generational as well
This reaction is GOLD!
Just meet the band today help set up there show ! , never heard of them became a fan instantly
Sublime is the KING band for underground gold.
Summer sound track right here
Yeah brother! About time we got some Sublime up in here. Yo, that track is off their "40oz to Freedom" album. That entire album is just banger after sweet, sweet banger. I'm thinking livestream album listen/reaction on youtube and/or Twitch. You won't regret.
Sublime is exactly that. A head turner on nearly every track.
The thing I miss most about the 90s is my van.
This is cali reggae. Another outstanding example would be The dirty heads “hip hop misfits,” “stand tall,” and “neighborhood”
Its Reggae Rock but Sublime was Ska Punk but recently its Cali Reggae. As soon as you start going down the sublime rabbit hole you are going to find Slightly Stoopid, Denm, Dirty Heads, Common Kings, The Green, Iration, The Elovaters and the list goes on and on and on. There is so much good music out there. Just go follow California Roots on all social media and you will see
Cali reggae is great. Gotta get this man listening to some Rebelution
Agreed! If you had to pick one song though... what would it be?
Rebelution is great! I'd start with Fade Away. Then I'd listen to The Elovaters. Then Josh Heinrichs. The Green, Common Kings, FIA, Sammy J the greatest vocalist on the planet. The list just goes on and on but I'd start with Slightly Stoopid 1st and watch the live at Robertos Tri Studios...in my humble opinion
@@GrandpaJean I’d go with Roots Reggae Music since it’s the song that got me listening to them.
@@mnapeahi also have to add in Iration to that. Easily one of my favorite bands
@sflo2310 absolutely! That's why I said the list goes on and on and on. Hirie, Rebel Souljahz, J Boog, Fiji, Paul Fuga, Eli Mac, Jonny Suite, Spawn Breezie...Tribal Seeds, Tunnel Vision, Dirty Heads, Katastro (Rip Andy) Artikal Sound System, Soja, Collie Buddz, Pepper, Long Beach Dub All-Stars, The mother effen EXPENDABLES!!!.......see what I mean
You absolutely need to go down the Sublime rabbit hole. If you're looking for soul, you'll find it in every single one of their songs. The song April 26 1992 is a personal favorite.
