August Requests Part 1

Omg I must have completely missed it thank you!!! Love your videos

Yea like Jermaine said, but I didn’t know Ye produced the track, and good you will enjoy “Keep your head up” it’s a good message from pac specifically to all the women.

I might have to let you listen to some of the songs where he calls himself Hov/hova…… he literally got a song called H.O.V.A. and Kanye West produce the track, this was before Kanye was even a rapper

Hahahaha that is funny. We all have one of those stories 🤣

Ahhhhh okay got it

That is up on YouTube haha I did that one a while ago

Oh interesting, I have never heard Jay Z be referred to as Hov. Someone actually requested a Tupac song this month "Keep Ya Head Up", I am really interested to hear it but also interviews like you were talking about. I've always heard such great things about tupac and what an impact he had

You should watch the music video for late night talking for Harry styles :)

I just finished watching, love your reaction to Drake venting how his life has change, this was before his first album, and the team he’s talking about is his OVO members (basically his friends from day 1) he mentions 40 that’s his producer that made the beat that you like also the co founder of OVO

Hov is Jay-z, and I don’t think Jay-Z did ask much as Pac, 2Pac was trying to get us to open our eyes to all the BS that goes on in the world for a long time… our government, street life, war on drugs… just so much, you can learn a lot from Tupac interviews and documentaries

I love Colder Weather... My favorite Zac Brown Band song, and I'd never heard this version. Thoroughly enjoyed it... Very nice! Funny story: I almost picked Home Free's version of Colder Weather for this month 😆 They have 3 versions: 1. From their time on The Sing-Off (https://youtu.be/V_oGsgdrHWY); 2. Full-length music video (how their cover is supposed to go) (https://youtu.be/QtPkRkVjydA); 3. Fan-recorded live performance dubbed the "memory lapse" (how it actually went) (https://youtu.be/69WhycesOaE). That last one is hilarious, but they're all well worth a listen.

When I was 8 I was scared of this video cause that little boy looked scary…. Song came out in ‘98 Lmao I understand if you don’t understand what he is saying, sometimes I got play it back to hear what he said

Flipmode is a record label and a rap group that Busta Rhymes created, but Busta Rhymes was like the only one that made it big… he was real Big in the 90’s and the 00’ he fell off after that. But he is considered top 25 or 50 best rappers of all time…. N yea he had multiple platinum albums and singles

This is a Home Free original from their Dive Bar Saints album. When they toured this last Christmas season, Texas Hill opened for them and they came up with this collaborative version. The original, while good, was not my favorite of theirs, but I like this live version better! And yes, it does look a lot like a modern church set, which the stained glass of the Ryman just adds to. The Ryman is where the Grand Ole Opry was held for many years before they moved to their current location. I love when they do the intros but are building the song back out piece by piece. I saw them live in February, and they did something very similar. Live, they are just another beast... The harmonies, Tim's bass just rattling through the whole place, Adam's beatbox solos. I could go on and on 🤣 So much fun!

ariana and the weeknd have been great friends for years! they have two other songs together called “love me harder” (2014, which is off her album my everything) and “off the table” (2021, off her most recent album positions). they’re amazing together! the studio version of this remix of save your tears was actually released before this performance, and theres even a cute little visual for it. ariana wrote her own verse, which is why the lyrics changed and she also vocal produced her part all on her own. i hope you do her positions album soon so you can hear their song “off the table” because it’s a beautiful r&b ballad that really showcases their voices and it’s a gorgeous song. there’s a live version too, so maybe that’ll be my next request lol (i requested fallingforyou for this month)

The story of Gloomy Sunday is that it's the most dangerous song ever. Hundreds of people have killed themselves listening to this song. It's definitely a one time listen, but worth the listen.

Any chance of a greatest vocalist Kelly Clarkson reaction? Anything from her Nashville sessions performances. Hope so.
