Please listen to Dijon! He’s such a great artist and you guys would love him! Absolutely is a great album! He’s got such good songs on there that I still have in my frequent repeats
Anniecia
PENGUIN GUY LMAOO. thats badzt maruuu from sanrio. I love sanrio characters. connor is kinda like badzt so this makes sense lol
Dru Pavon
I need to know that you have watched his live performance music videos on his YouTube
beatamina
Dijon should be the name of the little penguin
YungWrath
Dance party with headphones is a “silent disco!”
YungWrath
You guys gotta listen to Dijon - Absolutely!
Fiona Nelson
I just saw him live last week and it was a spiritual event. Breakthespell literally brought me to tears. If you’re on the fence seeing live will change you
Josh Hollanshead
no shit, pops can play guitar eh
Ian
Just saw mkgee in concert, played DNM 12 times total 😂
tiiiiiiiiina
Name the little guy pesto, after the fluffy legend himself. Or maybe hummus to mix it up, gotta be a dip/sauce though that's for sure.
marco
praying you guys witness live versions. the album is amazing but live is even better. I’d go to a different country for it. I had the same exact reaction to Rylee & I at first, but after seeing it live it’s easily one of my favorite songs on the album.
richard apollo
Yall gotta listen to some of the live versions. Does waaaaay more justice to what he’s making. He needa stop playing and drop the live version on streaming. Just got to the part where Kevin says he wants to see how he does it live, luckily bro has all the best songs live versions on his YouTube channel. The Alesis and Candy ones are awesome.
Jayke
Need Dijon
Jess DeCoux
Pleaaasseee check out a Mars Volta album, either of the first 3 albums
Edvin Kadric
love mkgeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Eivind
Please do a follow up, AOTY for me, think listening through without breaks will enhance the experience. Enjoyed your reaction
BO Kayak
Love this, was hoping this reaction would happen. Was thinking it was finally gonna happen w/ his latest blow-up and alas it did! Mk.gee got me through quarantine and has remained in my life. So glad to be here now. AUGH! Though the pronunciation!! I'd look at his 2018 album for clarification. Also LOL putting in a little recommendation for you guys to check out Portraits of Tracy. Insane sound, awesome music. Would really love to see you react to Drive Home (Or the Parting Gifts version) or just please check out a song or two. Heard yall mention storytelling in this and think you'd find so much of that in that album.
Lousin Derkhorenian
Been asking for System of a Down in YouTube comments forever :( maybe you guys can both react for the first time if you’ve never heard them before! The bands reaction videos get a lot of views and you’re guaranteed never to have heard a sound like them before!!
alex
So glad y’all listened to this album! I found mkgee right after he dropped this album, and I’ve fallen in love with the rest of his music since. Definitely one of the most influential artists of my 2024. Would love to hear you guys explore his earlier discography - I think Kevin would find the album fool really fun to listen to. Museum of contradiction is one of my favorites as well. Regardless I think you guys would have a lot of fun comparing and contrasting his earlier work to this newest album! Thanks for a fun listen!
Jordan Blue
Please do Lady Gaga’s deluxe album Joanne since she’s said she’ll be releasing new music and a tour soon!!!!! PLEASEEEE Kevin you’ll eat it up
Christian Gabon
great reason
Christian Gabon
Absolutely
Christian Gabon
Dijon-Absolutely is a must after this. I would even give Dijon a slight similar to Frank Ocean in terms of experimentation in production and even vocals
Blonded
Even the live versions?
yellowflannel
Not a fan of production on this album unfortunately
Alex Giroux
I would say the real magic is in the live versions of the songs on YouTube!! Highly suggest because it brings a completely different energy to some of the songs.
Ryan
do absolutely by dijon if you liked this! mk.gee produces on there and dijon is an excellent vocalist, artist, and writer as well. lovely album overall
Michael Gerdes
Danny Brown said it best: “Bitch pussy smell like a penguin”. I think you should name the little penguin creature Danny Brown after such a generational bar.
VibeWithDal
Regarding the top 10 2024 albums. I’m demanding a reaction to EMPATHOGEN by WILLOW 🤭 you two definitely have to give it a chance before you both make final decisions in December
VibeWithDal
The piano and guitar use really do resemble The album Purple Rain by Prince it’s as if the instruments are drowning in the mix ( in my imagination the sounds have a ripple effect). Definitely feeling Frank ocean lyrically and melodically too
VibeWithDal
Subway surfer game play 😂
Blonded
I was talking about Two star too lol. It’s on preorder on Diggers factory. It says sold out right now but they restock during every show he’s doing since they were for tour but ran out of copies so now they’re for preorder.
ayo
is the kids see ghost full video not up anymore?
Daniel Remian
I was talking about a Two Star vinyl, not Absolutely.
Blonded
Vinyl repress is currently out now for pre order on green vinyl
Blonded
You guys HAVE to react to the live videos for this album on his youtube they’re almost all completely different songs.
Noah Peralta
PLEASE do Absolutely by Dijon, without a doubt one of the best albums I've ever been blessed to listen to
Rowan
You guys should do more the weeknd before his next album drops
Zavier Hagen

Zavier Hagen
got the patreon for this. best album ever, a dude took a high quality mic to a show and recorded at howard theater so it’s like a live album. give it a listen on youtube, even better than studio version
toodee
haha no 😆
VibeWithDal
Lmao like Moe Lester ?
TTT
💥🍆
Private Tristan Bongo
Mk.GEE!!! Thank you for this. I think its only fair to move on to GEEse now! 3d country could be kevin's wheelhouse/blow his cock off
Cameron Butler
Romance by Fontaines ! this is top 3 within the last couple of years btw haha, top 3 OAT would probably just be three Radiohead albums haha
William
What’s the third?
Tevin Keo
Yall gotta watch the live versions
Ryleezy
Music 2
Darcy O'Shannessy
My god I’ve been praying for this day. Messaged Kevin asking you guys to look at Dijon a couple years ago but this is a step in the right direction!
etgima
kevin playing guitar was awesome !!
Daniel Remian
Finally, my favorite album of the year. Can’t wait for the vinyl restock casue Connor you’re right. This is such a good listen top to bottom in one go. A vinyl will take it to another level. Mike co-produced, co-wrote and played on Dijon’s Absolutely record which is also a must listen. These guys are so good at making something fresh, raw and unique. You gotta check out the Absolutely short film while you’re at it. It’s on YT and just makes you appreciate that album even more. They both opened for Bon Iver I believe, so that’s where the inspiration might come from. Mike’s previous EP’s and mixtapes are also very good btw. :) Thanks for the listen guys, loved your insight. I’m gonna go play Two Star for the gazillionth time. 😅
Tadhg
Started listening to Mk.Gee at the end of May. 2 Star is now my second most listened to album of all time on Spotify. My favourite artist around at the moment. Cannot wait to see him in London. Great video again guys! ❤️🔥

bianca

toodee
the penguin you have is called badtz-maru but u should call him Les (lester) :)
Avery Leland
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS !!!! knew this was going to happen but i’m so thrilled y’all get to experience this beautiful album. i saw him perform in Oakland at the fox theater, and oh my goodness it was one of the best sets i’ve ever seen with my own two eyes !
Dan Anderson
you have to do Absolutely by Dijon now, that's the rules. and then Mika's Laundry by Matt Champion
yahire
This might get a lot of hate considering the demographic but I think yall should do Taylor Swift’s Folklore and Evermore they’re arguably her best work and it would be a good way to introduce Kevin to Taylor
SoupyTurtle
Fantastic album! Saw him in Seattle a few months back, definitely worth while to see! A couple older albums I would love to see a reaction to, Passion Pit - Gossamer & Foster the People - Torches
nate(shmissy)
almost died when i saw the notification
nate(shmissy)

That penguin right there its called badtz maru, he's quite the silly guy

CUNNILINGUS GRAND PRIX CHAMPION OF THE WORLD
