Avelino is criminally underrated. Very impressed that you guys reacted to him and give him his props. Regardless of US/UK. Talent is talent and AV has it in spades.

So glad you keep coming back to Avelino. I don’t get why his following isn’t huge here in the UK

So happy you guys got back to Avelino. Best artist in the UK for me. He is certainly respected by his peers, if not all the fans

Avelino is the goat, Dave even said in an interview that he thinks Avelino is the best

Ave is too clever for the casual listeners.

Kettle is a London slang term for a wrist watch btw, it will keep coming up in songs so it’s good for you to know the meaning. As for why he isn’t the top guy over here, I think it’s actually the same you reason you like him because he sounds more universal, more palatable for ear drums used to American rap. Over here people tend to gravitate to artists who sound more UK...the more UK the better. Maybe Avelino’s more accessible sound isn’t as appreciated because UK rap is in a place where we make music for us, and if outsiders like it then fine and if they don’t...it wasn’t for you anyway. All the top artists over here tend to be unapologetically UK sounding to the point where it can be really hard for people that are not from the UK to digest, get into or even in some cases to understand at all. Which can mean they are loved here but sometimes it doesn’t translate as well overseas. Even that Ghetts daily duppy you did had so many UK specific lines and references that you just wouldn’t know unless you’re from here, so a UK person listening would have enjoyed listening WAY more because they get everything he is saying...from the references, to the slang, to the accents, and I think the reason drake co-signs the people he does is because black UK slang is really similar to black Canadian slang so he gets it more and it probably hits way harder for him.

Young fire old flames is the name of a joint album he made with wretch 32 aswell thats another reason why he used those words

I was literally watching your reactions to Avelino again yesterday. Imagine my surprise when this pops up.

Happy to hear the uk will be apart of the rotation a little more. it was what brought me to the channel to start with. excellent reaction

LITTLE SIMZ is a MUST for you guys, she’s the most artistically complete UK artist in my opinion. She’s made it in america too, not that that’s important. Recommend Introvert, I love you I hate you, Offence, Boss and Standing ovation for sure

Av is too slept on in the UK, produces so many bangers. Happy to see you covering the UK again!

I would highly recommend all 4 of avelino’s four seasons free styles. Very similar to this track, sick beats and bar after bar

I know you guys aren't doing as much uk stuff nowadays, but you guys would love little simz, she's been releasing absolute heat for a long time now

The boys are back… Always look forward to your reactions! And Avelino is fire 🔥

To me avelino is the best UK rapper

Btw. Avelinos Daily Duppy freestyle is probably my favourite. You guys need to peep that in your personal time

Major appreciation for going back to Ave

@3:06 This is exactly what I like about Avelino's style. His delivery, his tone, his cadence.. everything together makes it for smooth listening. This makes his music be something chill you can set in the background and vibe to, but you also sink your teeth into the bars and there is a lot there to unpack... All the time. The schemes, the double entendres, metaphors. He rapping every bar. And its insane! All this pressure on breadwinners, now its baguettes.. Pressure makes diamonds.. thats a double entendre right off the rip. The track just started. There iss no foreplay. Dude just gets to business. Also his beat selection is insane and ear for music is top tier.

SO HAPPY YOU DID THIS TRACK BIG UP

Ryannnn, remember you said 5 years ago that if you had 1M subscribers you'd be producing Avelino yourself? I think it's time to give him a ring dude

Transcendent is the word here. This shit is just fire, no matter where u from.

being 30 years old i grew up on UK grine from 12 years old to present, ive listened to everyone from skepta, wiley, chip, d double, kano, scorcher, devlin, griminal, shifty, akala, mic rightious, stormzy, p money, bugzy, dave ect..ive followed the whole scene from a young age and in my opinion ghetts, wretch and avelino are the 3 most talented artists the uk has ever produced. the flow switches, the pen slickness, the adaptability, versatility, craftsmanship of a song, likeability, relatability, delivery and longevity puts them 3 at the top for me. theyre timeless artist, nothing they put out is ever less than a 9/10. i think others come very close but i was a CEO if a huge record label, for the all round package they come above everyone else.

I would like to thank you both for reviewing Avelino as I had not really been into current hip hop. Now I listen to everything he does and others on rotation.

Avelino is definitely one of favorite UK acts. It's Wretch 32, Dave, Avelino and Chip from that end for me.

Love the way you both break it down 🇬🇧

16:10 "I wouldn't be young fire now without old flame" is a reference to his album with wretch32 which is called "young fire old flame". He is basically saying that he wouldnt be where he currently is without wretch. He has always been an inspiration for Avelino.

I am so happy about how much more confident Av is sounding on a track these days. He started off so kinda sheepish with his delivery but he's really stepped up his game 💪🏻

We need more uk stuff you don’t show us enough love You guys should make a podcast where u just react to a few songs a release it uncut would definitely listen to that

This reaction will have more views than the lyric video soon enough. You guys could be really helping spread his music

Been waiting a few years since your wretch reaction not even gonna lie. It is about time ya'll get on the UK scene. Wretch, akala, avelino, and the four owls have nothing but bars and fire beats 🔥

The sample is wretch 32 from his f64 freestyle

FYO is one of the best debuts I've ever heard, I'm glad he don't drop regularly, these gems need time to digest.

I wouldnt be young fire without old flame, is a shout out 2 Wretch32. Their moniker is young fire old flame

AV the GOAT for a reason 🔥🔥

When he said I wouldn’t be young fire without the old flame, he was giving references to wretch 32. They have a mixtape titled young fire old flame in 2015. Avelino is the young fire, and while Wretch 32 is the old flame

Ok but still definitely react to his latest daily duppy from 2019 I believe, with the yellow background 👍

Love to see you fellas reacting to Potter Payper - Purpose. Have a quick read over his backstory first.

Good to see you back on Avileno 👊🏻 peace

Avelino just dropped a new daily Duppy. It is time to do something for the UK!!🇬🇧🇬🇧

I’m frm the U.S. and facts he def slept on! But IFYKYK

Yesssssss, big w. Glad you guys are reacting to underated fire

I’m so happy you’re doing grime again - got me back into this channel.

This fire 🔥 definitely going to listen again

If you like avelino so much yous should react to both his solo fire in the booths

love the energy

Fredo - daily duppy fire example of real uk street music that is actually lyrical probably top 3 daily duppys ever and most viewed one

Wow did not expect to see Avelino on here, he’s so underrated for his talent it’s crazy, listen to his Album “Ego Kills” you will be impressed

Dave - My 24th Birthday. has to be your next one!

i come here sometimes for some hard cold stoner lol. But this is whats great in reaction videos covering different genres: i fell in love with this artist from genre i don't even know that much. U boys are doing gods work!

Big up lads

Avelino is Londons answer to Mick Jenkins. Neither have blown like they should have

I appreciate you so much for reaching out to doesn't

Ave the truth

He may not be the most popular in UK but everyone who knows him knows he is THAT guy, even Dave himself said it

Avelino 4 seasons freestyles 🔥

Yo you guys missed the connection about the young fire and old flame reference from his fire in the booth with wretch32. Keep up the hard work boys. Look forward to the next one. I’ve also commented on your insta but the Kendrick lemar video because I couldn’t find this one.

Check out Avelino's new HB Freestyle...💥💥💥 That might be his dopest free yet

Yesss

If he would have featured J. Cole on this....household name across the pond guaranteed. Because this is so good, Cole would never allow himself to get bodied!

Fireee

Real ones for backing Av still. I never got the double with Young Fire/ Old Flame as I was so blinded by it being a reference to him and Wretch32.

views mean shit. best u.s reactors best uk rapper.

The young fire without old flame line is referencing the ep he did with wretch 32 called young fire old flame

Aye aye aye Please do all of Avelino and Wretch’s daily duppys please.

OG UK Lost in Vegas fans we have to push these guys to watch Akala FITB part 4. I've been following for 4-5 years now since the start of their UK journey and they have done many of the classics years ago such as Akala FITB part 1 and Wretch 32/ Avelinos but I think it would be criminal for them to never react to Akalas pt.4. Like if you agree 👍

I get gassed for your mans reaction to Av

🔥💯

You guys need need to check out Kojey Radical. If Only/Water (video), Can't Go Back, 2020

Avelino - Higher Power is well worth a listen to.

Old Flame is Wretch 32, just so you guys Know haha They had a whole album together called "young fire, old flame".

Young fire old flame is a reference to his song with Wretch 32 who helped him get to where he is

Avelino fire 🔥

You need to listen to wretch 32 & avelino’s joined album you fire old flame. Album is unreal but my personal favourites are dear summer & dry cry

Ryan and George the best reaction videos on KZfaq.. Old Fire 🔥 Wretch 32, Young Flame Avelino. Paying homage to 32.

Dave - My 24th Birthday 🔥🔥🔥🔥

All this pressure on breadwinners...... The family breadwinner is the rock..... When you pressurise a rock it creates a diamond... A baguette..... That line is absolutely ridiculous.

The bread winner line could also be a play on words for the thin French bread hence baguette

You will love Ghetts Fire in the Desert /Fire in the booth pt3

you guys should check out knucks, killing it in the UK at the minute

You guys need to react UK grime legend Kano.
