Reacting to "Straight Outta Compton" by N.W.A.
I found out about the new Kendrick release after I finished recording this reaction, so the new Kenny will be next week's reaction. It'll land a little early due to the holiday schedule (Wednesday for Patreon).
Enjoy!

To understand this album better this some of the songs singles they released locally years prior. It’s basically kids having fun and talking shit. Their second album Individualz 4 Life was much more cohesive, sonically superior, and Rock and Funk influenced as far as production. One of the best Rap albums in my opinion.
Please Start Doing more old school Reactions!!
I love some of the 80s, but most of the albums are so dated with production and rhyme style. I grew up with it, and back then it was great, but knowing and hearing what's it's evolved to, makes it a little boring. Albums like this have 3-5 worthy songs to listen to, but the rest is ehh. It really progressed in the early to mid nineties with prod/rhyme style.
Still waiting for reactions to Ghostface, Scarface, Gangstarr, and Big Pun...
Weezy calling, The Carter IV please
speaking of Beastie Boys, can we expect a Paul's Boutique reaction in the future? 👀 imo that album remains the pinnacle of sample based production... it would cost over $20,000,000 to make today, absolutely insane and probably will never happen again
They had another album before this one called NWA and the posse
if you want to do more of them you should also do eazy's first album, Eazy duz it cause it is almost like another album from them and its really good
please react to skins by xxxtentacion
Eazy E's debut album "Eazy Duz It" was also released in 88. It was it's own thing and was absolutely monumental.
Looking forward to this reaction. I'm glad you still do some 80s and 90s albums every once and awhile. I was starting to think you weren't going to anymore. I love the old stuff. Still hoping for that Clipse reaction! 🙏
Hey Bob if you plan on doing more Jay-Z. His birthday is on december 4th and the black album which is something you said you wanted to hear starts with a song called December 4th. So maybe Hov in early december?
About J. Cole, I think the Warm Up is worth listening to, but if you can't do both that one and FNL, then FNL is the one to do. I think those will both be on streaming by the 27th, if he continues dropping w/ the podcast eps. Excited for Kenny, too :)
28th*
At least you will soak I. The spirit of Cube. The spiritual footprint of Mr Kenny Moral Dot
Oh we eatin gooood
