i think i messed up the audio during the songs so sorry if you can’t hear me properly during some of them i promise it wont happen again 😔 thank you for watching tho and have a nice wknd

This album changed so many lives…thanks for reacting!

Street lights hits my gut every single time

This album Influenced artists like the Weeknd, Lil Uzi, Juice Wrld etc it really changed the landscape of modern Hip/Hop

I always imagine the the two beeping sounds in Say You Will are beeps from a life support machine. Knowing his mom died from complications during surgery, and the fact the song has a long outro, it’s just the feeling of waiting to see if she will survive. Beautiful art.

I work at a home for developmentally disabled and one of my clients with autism loves to watch your videos with me. He is generally nonverbal but loves music, dancing, and kind company. You both have a positive, calm, compassionate tone that he is drawn to. I know he would like to thank you for posting these!!!

This album changed hiphop forever. Its truly a MASTER PIECE. And it lasted the test of time.

say you will is such a banger, man. the vibe is so entrancing, it's the perfect song to play when it rains

Coldest Winter is Kanye’s most underrated track by far

They’re both so softly spoken it’s almost an amsr reaction

I love how many times Molly said "wow..." during this reaction! Such a special album!

808s to me is by far the best album I’ve ever heard U can listen to it either when ur at ur happiest or loneliest It changed music forever and is timeless

Amazing reaction as always! Can't wait to continue with you guys on the Ye journey. 808s is absolutely incredible album. The way it completely shifted the paradigm of music is just unprecedented.

what I would give to listen to it again for the first time again... I love your reaction ❤

the live at hollywood bowl version might be the best ye album (unofficial but it is what it is) of all time for me. 9 min version of say you will, 10 min version of pinocchio story. insane.

The Hollywood bowl version of Pinocchio Story is personally my favorite Kanye song ever. That version of it with the orchestra and more cleaned up audio quality really made it for me, the closest it will be to a studio version. If y’all have the chance, I suggest reacting to the Hollywood bowl version of that song, or the whole performance in general. Love the content👍

Paranoid is one of my favorite Kanye songs ever. In the beginning I'm not 100% on what they were saying, but it sounds like when the song cuts on, Kanye is having a conversation with the engineer or just someone in the studio. And when they mentioned the word Paranoid, you can hear Kanye say "yeah that's good, paranoid", and then thats when he starts singing with the autotune. and thats why the guy laughs in the background. Me personally, from that, I got the feeling the song was a freestyle based on the conversation they were having. That's why the guy laughs in the back basically like "no way he's turning this into a song 😂". which I think makes the song like 100 times better. it takes so much talent to take a conversation or just like a random topic and then turn into a full competent song!

your wife is such a deep thinker and has such an intricate way of stringing her thoughts together🔥

Fun fact: He made this album in 3 weeks.

My favorite Kanye album and arguably his most influential. Hits even harder for me now as my dad passed away last month. I always felt Kanye's pain on this but now I really do.

Damn one could say this album is the birth of emo-rap

My new favourite reactors are back! You guys really climbed the ranks in such a short amount of time, always looking forward to all your uploads 🤗

just found your channel but your wife's incredibly descriptive and i love that..she renders the intangible pretty tactile with her words..bless

Cudi's on Guilt Trip and Gorgeous!

You guys have become one of my favorite channels! I love the content!

Excuse me this will be long winded but not enough Kanye fans realize his entire discography is a cohesive narrative but specifically from Pinocchio Story on 808s through Violent Crimes on Ye. On Pinocchio story Kanye sings about how he chased the American dream of being a superstar but now his mom is dead and his first fiancé Alexis Phifer left him in the same year and he feels hollow. “I just want to be a REAL boy” What’s the opposite of real? A Dark Twisted FANTASY On the intro Nicki Minaj in a fake British accent says “twisted FICTION sick addiction “ On the 3rd song Power Kanye says REALITY is catching up with me , taking my inner CHILD I’m fight for custody” and later “this would be a BEAUTIFUL DEATH jumping out the window letting everything go” So it’s the death of the “old Kanye” and All of the Lights begins the Fantasy he has of living in the celebrity world of flashing lights , getting in trouble, having a daughter and divorce with custody battles. So the album is him lost in that celebrity lifestyle and on last song Lost in the World it’s a poem he wrote to Kim before they got together and he feels lost in the world. So from there because he’s lost in the world and with “the old Kanye” now dead he creates an alter ego Yeezus which is an over the top egotistical, sex addicted maniac basically and by the song Blood on the Leaves you find out this sex addicted shell of the old Kanye became this way because of a failed relationship “we could’ve been somebody” On the last song Bound 2 gets with Kim and talks about wanting to marry her but still is speaking from the character of Yeezus with crude sexual language. The Life of Pablo’s theme is explained on the front cover , a picture of an IG model representing his addiction to attention seeking, sex, fame, ego and celebrity which is next to a picture of a family in front of a church at a wedding representing his desire to live a wholesome family life and follow the word of God and all over the cover it says “which one” because he’s still conflicted, that’s why the album switches between religious themes and love then very superficial things like money , fame and sex. The album opens with Ultralight Beam “a God DREAM” and after that there’s a bunch of songs about his addictions to the lifestyle until I Love Kanye , where he misses “the old Kanye” before the fantasy. On the last song Sampha sings “where is God in your night life” The conclusion of the thread of the Fantasy trying to be a “real boy” is on the album Ye. The album is supposed to express the reality of Kanye’s bipolar nature. The cover says “I hate being bipolar it’s awesome “ The first song I thought about KILLING You is about Kanye trying to metaphorically finally kill the other side of himself. In spoken word he says “most BEAUTIFUL thoughts are always beside the DARKEST” (My BEAUTIFUL DARK Twisted Fantasy) The 2nd to last song Ghost Town (Ghost-are DEAD) he wanted to kill the old version of himself, the end of the song repeats “I put my hand on a stove to see if I still bleed and nothing hurts anymore I feel kind of free” Meaning to become free Kanye couldn’t just kill the old version of himself because that is himself he had to accept the darkest sides of him self (put his hand on the stove) to feel free and like a kid again aka A REAL BOY like Pinocchio wanted to be.(Shake sings “once again I am child” The last song the closes the 5 album narrative is Violent Crimes. Ye raps about how he used to be a savage and a monster but now he has a daughter and has to leave that life/version of himself behind. The chorus says “REALITY is upon us colors dripping off” This lyric is a reference to one of Kanye’s favorite movies The Holy Mountain about a group of false prophets trying to find salvation on the Holy Mountain but at the end of the movie you find out the you’re watching a movie inside of a movie and nothing was real. Kanye used to play this movie on repeat during the making of Dark Twisted Fantasy on mute in the background and on the Yeezus tour he had a mountain on stage. Guess who closes the song , Nicki Minaj , and instead of fake British accent like on Dark Fantasy intro , this outro is a voice mail of her not performed in her real voice that she left for Ye in real life. Last note , the name Kanye means “only one” the name his mom gave him and a song he sings from his mom’s perspective speaking through Kanye to his daughter North. Ye is most used word in the Bible and refers to “you” or everyone. On the Yeezus tour Kanye said Yeezus meant Ye ez(is) Us. Only one refers to only Kanye(Ego) and Ye is you. Most beautiful thoughts are always inside/beside the darkest. Ye explained in an interview with Big Boi in Wyoming before the album that the album was called Ye because he was representing the different sides of humanity are all in 1, the good, the bad , the dark the beautiful etc Yeezus, Pablo and Ye is the identity trilogy because he lost himself in the Dark Twisted Fantasy of fame and addiction and the albums all together are the journey of finding himself again after feeling lost in a Fantasy/Pinocchio Story that he just wanted to be a real boy after his mom dies. Reality is upon us , colors dripping off.

Without 808s&H we wouldnt have many of the artists we have today. This album was so influential. I remember seeing this live at the Hollywood Bowl. Amazing. AmaIng.

I absolutely enjoyed the reaction! The more I listen to this album the more I truly understand Kanye's pain. 808s is probably my 2nd favorite album of his behind Late Registration.

With the whole thing with Kanye and Peggy, I think you guys should react to Peggy at some point, take your time tho!!

welcome to heartbreak is such an underrated song..great introduction to kid cudi

I stopped using drugs 💉 after listening to this album my life really changed i have a son and a girlfriend now

This album birthed Drake

Thank you for doing this!!! You guys rock!

I think after this album, you should really show her his unreleased “Never see me again” to emphasize the state of mind he was during this time and prior to mbdtf👍🏽

exactly what i needed this morning, thanks yall ❤

As far as a "cleaner version" of Pinocchio Story, the VH1 storytellers performance of Heartless has a version of this freestyle that is more cohesive and super theatrical because of the stage lights, crowd, and band. Y'all should check that out.

Still can't get through Pinoccio's Story without shedding a tear.

Now I'm hyped for this, I like the order in which you're taking her through Ye's discography! Coulda easily done it all in order but you give good context on each album to create a better picture of what these albums meant at the time. Great work

Love her take on how he had everything he wanted and how we saw that in Graduation but how it suddenly changed. Great take!

Damn I’m actually not ready for this lol. I’ll be back in a few hours 🏃🏻‍♂️

Pinocchio Story is one of the best Ye songs imo 😢

Arguably the most transformative and innovative hip hop album of all time

We need Life Of Pablo

You two are so chill👌love it

I’ll suggest you two React to Kanye West VH1 Storytellers Performance it’s incredible and really gives you a inside look on how Kanye operated during this Era of 808s & Heartbreak🐐💔🔥💯

Great review. I love this album! Looking back it definitely encapsulates the creative explosion that happened in 2008. Paranoid is my favorite on the album. It might be his best written song. It’s a small glimmer of light on an otherwise dark album. Coldest Winter 🥺, Bad News 💔, and Welcome to Heartbreak are also incredible songs.

I fucking love this album man, always an special listen with it

The most influential album for modern hip-hop. Love the Kanye reactions

paranoid might be my favorite kanye song ever! so good

nah i love robocop, 808s is top 3 kanye

„Sounds like someone is dying… i love the theme!“. 😂

I remember watching Kanye live on tv when he preformed love lockdown at the mtv awards in 2008, crazy this album is turning 16 this year makes me feel old…😭

Def right to say it's his most influential album ever. Almost every hip hop artist that came out after this was from the school of 808s. Mixing singing and rapping and making a push towards more synth and autotune sound My favorite song is tied between Welcome to Heartbreak and Street Lights. I dont think you could find a more grounded song than street lights tbh

Can’t wait for the next reaction, this was a good one ❤❤

This album is full of perfect songs, my favorite album from Kanye

goated album! love the reaction guys

ROBOCOP is a nice song. I enjoyed the VH1 storytellers performance and it stood out.

Legend has it Beyonce is the person who told him to include the live Pinocchio Story from Singapore on there🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥fucking love that song man

Streetlights is one of Kanye's best song

This album saved me.

You should’ve told her how he used the autotune as a way to “robot his emotions” like a fake person tapping or somebody rapping in a falsetto or alternate ego

Robocop makes perfect sense actually. He’s talking about his ex girlfriend being a robocop. Robocop is a half human, half machine cop (movie/show)going around arresting bad guys, who lived by the code never breaking rules, etc, aka killing the vibe, like his ex. 😂. This guys has a Robocop too…

Are you guys going to go thru A$AP’s discography?

The Caroline Shaw version of “Say You Will” might be my favorite Kanye song of all time

Molly's review: 'Oh wow'

Street Lights, Paranoid and Robocop are my favs!

Nightmares doesn't get enough love.. That and coldest winter

My favorite Kanye album... Saved my life

Please do a reaction where you guys listen to Kanye’s bonus tracks and unreleased songs

Would love to see a Rodeo reaction if you’re into it!

Lmao robo cop definitely gives me Disney vibes

Wish you would've told the story behind Pinocchio Story. How Beyonce basically told him he had to put it on the album cuz of how raw and real his feelings were and how the fans weren't even payin attention. Plus for context of his relationships and how so many artist show up on his songs as background and we don't even know it, especially goin into Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

when this came out not only was I listening to it on repeat, the neighbors downstairs were listening to it on repeat as well. It was just 808s vibrating the building

Such a great album, every song hits

People call me crazy, but I like love lockdown more than heartless, and paranoid is my favorite ye song ♥️

His seriousness😭 Many conversations were held prior to this. He has long awaited this moment🙏🏾🤣

Damn. Robocop is one of my favorite Kanye songs.

Listening to this album with a good sub hits so different than with headphones. This and Graduation are hands down my favorite albums.

Welcome to the heartbreak the best track 🙌🔅

I feel jealous fr I just wanna marry someone to live this moment Hope best for you both nice video

Street light most underrated song of all time by Kanye west

Great reaction! Actually the first half of the album has better music but the second half really has more introspective and reflective feel and is more sad. But i understand why anyone will like the first half more. Can't wait for TLOP reaction.

The album that changed hip hop forever. Ye is truly one of a kind. No matter the quality of the project, you will always get a 100% authentic version of his mental state

Classic Album 💿

I'm more of a Cudi fan but Kanye absolutely killed it with this entire album.

Wish they had done his albums in order. Hearing songs like Last Call where he talks about his mom and you can even hear her voice, and then Hey Mama add to the buildup of what this album is. Plus theres several times on the first 3 albums where he indirectly references his fiance.

You didn't like Robocop but it's my 2nd favourite on the album 😭

Ye is the greatest EVER.. 808 is so legendary its crazy how many artist took this vibe and ran with it for the rest of their careers

After the Kanye series I hope that you two can listen to Travis Scott’s albums

Say you will my favorite from album, i love how this song hypnotizes me

theres literally no better feeling than being the steward of introducing your girl to kanyes discography.

Street Lights is in my top 3 Kanye songs

definitely one of the most influential albums ever in hip hop changed the game completely especially in a time where ganster rap was still at the forefront (i.e. Graduation vs 50 Cent Curtis). made a lot of rappers today like Drake. my favorite song is welcome to heartbreak

I will defend this album to my grave.. especially street lights and coldest winter.

Kids see ghosts and ye please!!

Let's take a moment to give Kid Cudi his flowers for this one as well! Spectacular Album as a WHOLE! Ps. I totally appreciate both of you guys' commentary! Well done! I'd appreciate some of the major drops of the song to be played through, although I know you need to chop it up got monetary purposes.

my 3rd favourite Ye album

Also, from the beginning to the eventual end of the album due to the order of the track list it is him getting over a heart break: 808's & Heartbreak!

I’ve enjoyed your reactions, love the Ye deep dive but can’t wait for J Cole to hit the channel!
