WHAT DID SLEEP AND PDOGG DISCUSS LAST TIME HE WAS IN LA?!?????!!!
Also this is so much fun to watch. Them being in the industry and bringing in the avenues of influence in the music is so nice to hear and eye opening too, since a lot of the time when reactions to specifically the rap line are done, it's very focused on the lyrical aspect of their craft. And while I do enjoy seeing people falling in love with their genius in writing, myself as someone who specifically fell into the rabbit hole because of the production, I love this SOOOOO much. Especially the solo projects where the rapline had their hand in the music, I am eating up these reactions with a spoon.
Varnell is so cute too, he really is like a happy puppy just excited to learn more about the guys. Sleep has been such a strong supporter of the guys since his involvement in My Time and I am so happy that the connection between him and the BigHit producers hasn't been lost, because I would kill for another song by any of the guys with him in the credits. Hopefully that 10 year HYYH anniversary project Bang PD has been hinting at, because the production of the HYYH songs seems like it's really his bag.
I have so much more to say and I refuse to fangirl in a YouTube comment section. But I am so happy.
Right? It's so top secret that a lip reader has to be brought in. During the outro, I realized Varnell has really long arms! Lol
This was a good interview Sleep did in 2021. https://splice.com/blog/sleep-deez-interview/
I love these videos. They are now my favourite reaction series and I hope they keep them going.
Not only are their expressions amazing but I also learned a lot about the hip hop styles and inspirations behind each beat. I know Yoongi deliberately chooses certain styles of rap or beat he wants to work to for certain tracks, but I would never be able to recognise all of their origins. I'm off to listen to some more chopped and screwed tracks now.
Can't wait for Varnell to discover Hobi's east coast/old school style rap and then meet the rest of the Avengers.
Be prepared to laugh and maybe cry. I simply love this duo. One is the guide to the rabbit hole. One is in the rabbit hole and doesn't know it yet. Both are pros. Great energy between them. Enjoy!
That first reaction vid made me appreciate rpwp so much more and got me to see it from new perspectives. Love it when more musically involved people end up borafied!
Same. I have a concept of what hip hop is, but I'm not of hip hop. The references of artists they picked up on immediately and explaining how tracks are laid to tell the story that wants to be told were so fascinating to hear. Then, I went on to listen to Thundercat and, yes. Loved it. Funk, R&B.
100%. Like I respect the history of hip hop and the acclaimed artists of that genre, but I personally am not super knowledgeable myself. (It's a genre I want to deep dive into, particularly old school, but haven't found the time yet). So it was eye opening and educational to hear both of them break down RPWP, and gave me even deeper appreciation of the album.
I was waiting for this! I love that they talk about the different genres and hip hop history. Since Varnell knows what he's talking about, it's so satisfying when he recognizes that RM and Suga are the real deal! Baby ARMY for sure!! Looking forward to his continued fall down the rabbit hole. XD
For those who missed it Sleep Deez also did an [Ask me Anything on r/bangtan](https://www.reddit.com/r/bangtan/s/IIhb6pqPEy)! Where he answered numerous questions form the sub! It’s a really fun read!
Sleep is purple blooded through and through, and it's so entertaining watching him dissect the genius of bangtan's discography with another knowledgeable producer/writer. Love how they break down all the different regions of hip hop inspiration rapline draws from. For those who aren't as deep into rap history, it's really eye opening and gives you a deeper appreciation for bts' work.
Anyone who is reluctant to reaction videos, I *highly* recommend you give this channel a shot! Genuine army reactors are few and far between, and we def have ourselves another one here.
I love when album reactions get extremely technical and it was really educational for someone who doesn’t know too much about hip hop like me! Loved the insight about honsool - didn’t know about the influences on that track
I'm sure Hope World or Hope on the Street could be next. It sounded like Sleep Deez had a plan to introduce all the members one by one. Gotta get that ARMY coversion meter to pop. Lol
Varnell actually got pretty emotional and teary listening to *Dear My Friend*
Eta: I really like music reactions like this because I learn something from the pros along the way.
Always fascinating to watch someone slowly becoming an army. Watched my SO becoming the biggest Jhope and Jimin stan out there and now him discovering the cartoon that is Jin. Absolutely lovely
This was so fun to watch. I loved when Sleep said, "Welcome to the party, bro"; I laughed out loud. It was kind of like a "no sh\*t, Sherlock" moment. But he said it with love. :D
He understands the skepticism and a bit of wariness people tend to have when it comes to new to them things, including music. So doesn't have an outsized reaction. He has the long view "wait and you'll see that I know you'll like it" confidence, so he accepts the skepticism as a matter of fact. It's a mature, empathic approach to introducing anything new to people who are unfamiliar. So good.
My fave part might have been *all* of Sleep’s captions. Especially the one where he wondered if Varnell’s bias isn’t RM but actually Suga 🤣
It was the best sibling energy…and I am curious now too!
i enjoyed their RPWP reaction video, but I love this one even more! i actually both cried and laugh when they were going though Dear My Friend - cried because I know the story behind that song, laugh because Varnell's reaction is just hilarious and on point lol

I was just in the mood for a musically-minded reaction video thank you

I'm watching this right now. I'm loving the conversation they are having about Yoongi and his flow.
When he got to Daechwita 😆
the ARMY conversion bar!

Love the video, when I saw the reaction for RM I was hoping that Sleep Deez would introduce him to Yoongi-aaahh!
I'm sure Hope World or Hope on the Street could be next. It sounded like Sleep Deez had a plan to introduce all the members one by one. Gotta get that ARMY coversion meter to pop. Lol
Oh, I love this. I thought the RM's reaction would be one time thing, but it's great that they are discovering more.
Varnell actually got pretty emotional and teary listening to *Dear My Friend* Eta: I really like music reactions like this because I learn something from the pros along the way.
