Yabai = "yeah, bye" (like stfu i'm done witchu)" 😂

I heard “yeah bye” on the third “yabai”.

Pertaining to your bomb theory: If only you had edited Mascara at the 2 minute 45 second mark with Hinata detonating that sculpture explosion scene into this analysis. Thank you soooo much for breaking this all down for many international ALPHAZ

The YABAIYABAIYABAI part, the official Japanese subtitle reads "This is a warning" It is true that YABAI also means "Be careful because it is dangerous". I thought it would be the coolest if these meanings were given various meanings in the translation.

That was a great breakdown of our Alpha Ace “Money Maya”

cool breakdown cowboy. Maya slayed

Great breakdown especially at the end.

Thanks for the breakdown 🤯🤯🐺

These ladies are sooo with the times and keeping up with all of it. Just being on social media platforms all in itself is a damn full time job, not to mention being in a global girl group! I'm exhausted just thinking about it! These ladies are so intelligent and savvvy! It's the haters that are stuck in reverse! Lol To me XG is becoming the female version of BTS... They are doing a fantastic job of dealing with a hateful and incredibly hurtful world! I am so proud of them! 🙏🥰 loved your analogies of their raps. I believe you nailed it! 🤗

The word for word dissection of this is just amazing. It's like an art form on itself. XG and XGALX really has the Blueprint for success. They leave nothing in the table. 🔥😎

YABAI = sick, crazy, cool, watch out…

wow nice reaction🔥🔥🔥

Great reaction. Maya definitely detonated that mic. 🍄☁

New sub. Thank you for the breakdown

Connor, a fan conf

解読本当スッゴイ！やばやばヤバイ(YABA YABA YABAI)！！です！MAYAの発音は日本人の親しみのあるヤバいが使用されていて、日本人はこの瞬間全員がMAYAヤバい(無茶苦茶クールで、それと同時に恐ろしい程カッコいい)！！と感じています。

I love your breakdowns it gives me so much appreciation for these girls. They are literally killing the game

Don’t forget the call back to Harvey’s verse on Tape 2 “sweeping up dollars, yen and won”

I really enjoyed your breakdown. It was a learning experience for me. Thank you. Well done!.

great reaction - I love the deep dives you do As for Yaba-yaba-yabai, I am craving some merch - this will look great on a t-shirt! On first pass, before I knew the meaning of the word, I thought it was a flinstones reference crossed with something else: Yaba-daba-doo! It's good to know my imagination is still spry. I can't add anything else for this line except to say that as she exits and begins the next line I hear a faint ad-lib that sounds more like "boy-oh" (hopefully not my imagination again ;-) Thanks so much! looking forward to so many more tapes and reactions.

Quality as always 😂❤❤

Deymmm i am always learning something new when i watch ur reaction!

Bar none best breakdown reaction!!!!! Thank you so much!

Love your breakdowns. If I may add some comments ... Since I personally have a background in acting (stage not screen) I can emphatically confirm your opening observation ... _not_ moving has an incredible power in performance. I agree with your opinion that the complexion bar is the hardest hitting in this. But after that, Maya basically lists all the other possible reasons for XG haters: X-Genetics aka envy of their raw talent; I'm sick of the same script for gimmicks aka that they don't do the K-Pop typical rapping that uses the same scripts and formulas over and over again; they are sick of me elevating my skills aka she is getting better and better - envy again. And then, my personal favorite line that seems to get overlooked often because it is over so fast - "Sorry I have to burst your bubble", aka the information bubble of closed-mindedness. Boom (see what I did here? 😂). It also fits into Jurin's "break ya idol stereotypes" line. If pressure keeps pressin my buttons (if you think your comments will trigger me) - Then I'll just let it detonate on the mic (that makes me just better and better with my performance ... so just go on). Last note - sweat the technique is a shoutout to Eric B & Rakim (this is real old school shit) ... wanna see some lines from that original track? Here go: Let's trace the hits and check the file Let's see who bit to detect the style I flip the script so they can't get foul At least not now, it'll take a while I change the pace to complete the beat I drop the bass 'til MCs get weak For every word they trace, it's a scar they keep 'Cause when I speak, they freak to sweat the technique ... They wanna know how many rhymes have I ripped and wrecked But researchers never found all the pieces yet Scientists try to solve the context Philosophers are wondering what's next Pieces are took to labs to observe 'em They couldn't absorb 'em, they didn't deserve 'em My ideas are only for the audience's ears For my opponents, it might take years Pencils and pens are swords. Somehow this really fits in nicely with Maya and XG, amirite?
