The parallel between this funky ass music and this dark ass music video
is ripping me apart on the insIDEEE.
I don't know how to take it.
I don't know whether to dance or cry.
Triple H
365 Fresh
So Triple H is actually a collaboration between three artists.
Two of the members, the two males,
are from a boy group called 'Pentagon' that we'll react to in the future.
And the female artist in this collaboration is HyunA from '4Minute'.
*lol* we gotta go around (all the cords)
Hiding from the law, yeah, uh.
That seems to be the theme of today.
Yeah.
Is he waving them around? Peyton: guess so
That's kinda cute.
Aw, that's cute. They're Triple H cause all their names start with H.
Oh my god, aspect ratio.
Oh, okay.
- This almost sounds like ... - Uptown
Yeah, no no. It's not Uptown Funk. It's, um, 24K Magic.
Oh, I don't know that one.
It's - we'll compare it.
Okay.
24K Magic in the air.
It's got that, those kinda like groovy, electronic sounds.
Okay, I like her as a ginger. Peyton: also that Moog bass
Oh.
There was a ...
INAPPROPIATE!
Not PG.
Oh.
I like his voice.
That was a little creepy but I like his voice.
Oh. Stop that!
Nope.
No, stop!
Please stop.
Did they just blur out a joint?
What?
- This guy is having a bad time. - Well, there's some cool mixture in this song.
I really like his voice. This music video is taking me for a goddamn trip.
rape, domestic abuse, suicide.
Murder.
Oh
my
god.
So fresh!
So fresh.
I like it when they all sing at the same time, but you can still hear the three different voices.
Mm.
Like, because they're all like, different timbres
- I like the instrumentation so much. - Oh my goodness.
It's good shit.
- This is nothing like baby driver! - I'm like, I'm so intrigued by the video.
- No, I'm, I'm- - But then the music supports it, so I don't know. It's, it's you know.
No, I think the music video ...
Like, it oddly fits?
Somehow?
He just got launched!
This parallel ... uh, this B section is really really cool.
But, the parallel between this funky ass music and this dark ass music video,
is ripping me apart on the insIDEEE.
I don't know how to take it.
I don't know, whether to dance or cry.
I like this synth bass line.
Yeah.
Kinda funky.
Funky, but like, modern with the effects of the music.
Yeah.
This is so strange, cause like, you're listening to the music and then you're seeing this music video
and you don't expect them to go together.
Nope. Not at all.
I feel like I can't focus on the music, because there's so much happening in this.
I like how, they're, they're just like, chanting this at this point.
Like, that's cool.
I love that old bass line in the little rap phrase.
- Yeah, it's like a, it's like a crowd pleaser. - Yeah.
Especially with '3-6-5 so fresh'.
I like that guy's voice, with the like, falsetto.
'3-6-5 so fresh'.
Uhhh.
There's so many, there's so many rythyms happening at the same time.
Wow, this is really classic, like, Disco Funk thing.
Yeah.
Uh-oh.
Ohhh god.
Are we doing, are we, ahhh.
We are doing that. Ohhh ...
The high funk beat though.
That color works really well for her. I didn't even think about it.
- Like, I didn't even think about how that's not her natural hair color. - Oh my, are they about to jump off a building together?
Might as well just end it.
Wow, this is like, so ...
Wait, this is kinda crazy.
- This is so much about like ... - Death?
'Young'
Like, 'live in the moment' ...
Excess.
I don't know. Don't do this for a good life, kids.
- Interesting. - Uhhh ...
Dude, the font is fucking Drive!
This is like all, this is all references to stuff.
There's like a Tarantino reference.
There's a 'Drive' reference.
This whole song is Bruno Mars.
It's being compressed, until we can't see anything.
- There you go. - Yup.
It's very similar, um, instrumentation.
Yeah, this is, uh ...
- It's the exact same thing. - Yeah.
- It's just different, uh, different ... - The chords are a little different, but ...
That, and also, like, the, uh, what's it called?
I can't. I can't think of it. The balance. It's a little bit different.
Cause that one's more, the piano's just really out there. But this one's, more, more voice.
Mm-hmm.
You know, so many K-Pop groups try to replicate the 80's funk vibe.
But it's so rare, when the production on something
where, like, everything pops out and feels as vibrant as they should,
and you hear so much depth, but it still works together,
in a not too messy way, and it generally, generally just makes you wanna fu- just wanna groove to it.
You know?
And the F-R-E-S-H, the little rap part, the beat changes.
That was like really enjoyable to listen to.
Cause it was just, like, very upbeat and the reason it's upbeat,
it's cause of the rythym that they chose, that's like: 1, 2, da da da.
It's like you do that in dance, too. It's a very- it gives it a variety to it.
And then there's just, like, the instrumentation that supports it, there's like a low bass guitar.
And bass guitar is just so interesting, because it adds a whole new realm of the range of the instrument.
So you have, like, the bass guitar, and then you have your voice, which is like
sometimes you can just hover and sing really high.
Then when you go on opposite direction, that's called contrary motion.
It really makes it so, so interesting, just to see how they use it.
I just, there's like kind of a bit of a mental block between me talking about the song and me, you know ...
This.
- Why? - '3-6-5 so fresh.'
- Why react to it, or why I ... - Why react to it?
It's some fucked up shit.
And they make light of some fucked up shit.
Well, no they don't. They don't make light of it, they present it.
It's not like they were glamourizing this.
But it was weird that on top of it was '3-6-5 so fresh'.
I thought, like, the beat was funky, and it was great.
It was very funk inspired but very little of the music went into my head.
Yeah, you know you can't make a music video like that and then expect people to like ...
pay attention to the music as much.
Fuck.
That was a lot.
I think, what's even more interesting is the video, cause like, I don't know what it's about.
So for me it's like. I'm seeing like, um ...
three people go through terrible things in their lives.
One that gets beaten up, one gets harassed at work.
Isaac always goes for the deep shit, deep shit.
But you have to, otherwise it's just, like [whispers] What's the point of life?
I wasn't paying attention to the video.
- It's such hard, hard things that ... - Yeah. - Humans have to deal with.
I think putting it in a pop music video, definitely is a little
You know, it's one thing to put voodoo dolls and stuff. That's just creepy, for creepy's sake
It's pretty cool. But like, this is a bit more serious, you know?
If the wrong person watches this, like ...
Ah, this video contains inappropriate content for teens under 19.
Okay that's better.
I don't know, I personally don't agree having this video, this is just like, very inappropriate to have in pop music.
Cause it's like, yeah, like 19 or higher, it doesn't matter, like you can still go through a phase
You might start like taking like, oh yeah, I could probably just like spice things up and like do something.
Whatever doing is, and in this case, it's killing.
Doing something weird and then, like, "Are you doing drugs?"
And then going off, doing whatever.
I don't know. I feel like this music video, definitely. It's sort of like "Be like us."
There's almost, like, you know, it's doing that youthful, coming-of-age thing
Like, "Oh, we're going through all this shit."
And it's almost like "You can do it too", there's something, that's like "Follow my lead."
There's almost like a follow my lead feeling.
Actually, I don't, like, what is a pop star? Someone that you look up to. So, like, by means of buying their stuff
Or just becoming them. Like, going into their culture.
I mean, it's a debate, like certainly can be had.
I think the existence of all this is valid, but it is a question of what to show and how to restrict things.
I don't know, it's, it's interesting.
Oh my goodness are we matching?
To an extent.
Oh!
Ohhh!!!
Okay, yeah, so musically. What did you think of the song?
'3-6-5 so fresh!'
I liked that.
It was FRESH.
It was like such a crowd-pleaser, honestly, like though the song was so, just like,
Hella.
It was such a pop song.
It's so much repetition, but it was good at reminding me of Bruno Mars.
'24K Magic in the air.'
Just like how Bruno Mars, he just, like, yells stuff, with like such
SO FRESH
Like that, exactly like that, with the beats and like the little funky guitar thing going on.
So, I don't know, it was that style and it was that vibe.
Yeah, so what made that so funky, and I guess, you said Bruno Mars-y?
It was the, it was a mixture between the bass line that was chosen.
And the, like, clapping.
And then, like, the I think it might have been, like, hi-hat or something? I'd have to listen again to say for sure.
Yeah.
The like, the rythym section, made it sound it.
And just the color of the vocals, is kinda like, Bruno Mars-esque.
And just the way they kind of articulate the verses.
And like the emphasis on 2. I think that's a big thing for Bruno Mars.
Right, and you said, I guess was it the bridge? That you liked what they were doing with the chords. Was that anything different than the rest of the song?
Yeah, cause I mean, most of it was like a funk famp, and then it just kind of went left.
I don't exactly remember what the chords were, but yeah, it was just a nice color change.
Cool, and so you guys were talking about how this contrasted heavily with the music video.
- Yeah. - If I was listening to this, I would just think that it would be like a really upbeat music video.
Like very, fresh, pop-y, fun.
Yeah, that.
And, I thought that they would be dancing like that, but they were not and it was really strange
and I don't know where that decision was made, but um
It was like ______
Let's just mess with people's emotions, it's fine.
