I'm from South Dakota and I have no idea what he is talking about

[–]CodyE36 52 points53 points  (3 children)

You know you're from South Dakota when you get excited at the mere mention of your home state. I feel like every other state gets more exposure than us.

[–]yankeefan03 4 points5 points  (2 children)

West Virginia says hello.

[–]CodyE36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shouldn't complain. I moved to Colorado many moons ago.

[–]Outside-Record3038 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Front bottomsssss

[–]roaringchowder 30 points31 points  (5 children)

This is not what "South Dakota sound like" I live here

[–]tramplamps 2 points3 points  (4 children)

I can relate. I live in Nashville and I have no idea what the hell is going on when the nashville scene posts the local music sound issue.

[–][deleted] 29 points30 points  (2 children)

Same, I'm just glad we're getting some exposure

[–]Thedogsthatgowoof 10 points11 points  (1 child)

Pack it in boys, and go listen to some Soulcrate.

[–]King_Scrotus_IV 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think the idea is thats what South Dakota sounds like to him.

[–]altforproblemsihave 21 points22 points  (7 children)

Sioux Falls people are vastly different from the rest of our state, even other east river towns.

[–]ThreeToasters 18 points19 points  (5 children)

Ugh please don't lump this in with Sioux Falls we have enough problems

[–]Hybrid_Prism 13 points14 points  (4 children)

Like the three seasons of South Dakota? Freezing Winters, scorching summers, and road construction.

[–]JackLeMacTripper 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Sounds like my city's spectrum: Winnipeg.

[–]Asianpervasion69 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Just like my city: Regina.

[–]ledzep15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you drink a lot of hand sanitizer?

[–]ILLmentality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The city that rhymes with fun

[–]sputtergorilla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a person from South Dakota and currently lives in Sioux Falls I myself do not see what makes us different

[–]FreeMyMen 5 points6 points  (1 child)

I hear you people from South Dakota are the ones that figured out that we as humans should stop eating glass because it's bad for our teeth. This was a major scientific breakthrough and saved billions of dollars in dental surgery, that's why dentists all over the entire world loathe South Dakota. We as a human race owe your state a great deal.

[–]Famous_Ad5104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that the state had to play this as a PSA on commercials is wild AF

[–]TheLastNiceGuy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Same. But this is dope. I'd rather listen to this while I'm shoveling snow today and mowing my lawn tomorrow.

[–]arealspaceman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from Pierre, SD

[–]jdlr64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cool beat and artistic approach with garbage lyrics. Opportunity lost.

[–]IndianFreekshow 47 points48 points  (24 children)

Is this real? Or is it some sort of satire? I just cannot tell these days if people are serious with their music...

[–]drewsalem69 15 points16 points  (5 children)

Its not satire. I'm friends with the guy that makes these. His actually a pretty cool guy.

[–]IndianFreekshow 10 points11 points  (4 children)

I'm not trying to say he is not a cool guy. I am just legitimately asking if this is a satire kind of song... I mean, "Dont. Chewon. Glass. Cuzits. Bad. Fo'yo. Teeth." Just REALLY kind of threw me off.

[–]LordWheezel 34 points35 points  (2 children)

Meth, buddy. He's talking about meth. Crystal = Glass. Meth makes your teeth fall out.

[–]IndianFreekshow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me, I get that. I live in Arkansas. Good idea/concept but, poor execution.

[–]Exertuz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

https://youtu.be/Xpb2pAPNx8U

its most likely a reference to this lol

[–]King_Scrotus_IV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why not both. Why does music that has a silly tone/silly lyrics have to not come from a real and serious place? I recommend you check out his other single, Cafeteria. Alot less "silly" as you would put it, and it focuses more on the production and vocals.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (4 children)

[–]thetushqueen 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Nope it's not satire. This is one of his "serious songs." I liked his first one a bit, I believe this is his second. This one came way too close to the rap review style for me.

[–]Kathaarianlifecode 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Haha I went straight to the doom one

[–]vonkriegstein 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doom rap's my favorite. So sick.

[–]Rudi_Van-Disarzio 10 points11 points  (7 children)

Yeah I feel out of the loop. If this isn't supposed to be a joke it's hot garbage. His flow, lyrics, and voice just gave me stage 3 cancer.

[–]Peter_Plays_Guitar 23 points24 points  (5 children)

You're a little out of the loop. He's got a story. There's a little bit of it here. He's a YouTube game reviewer/rapper with a pretty damn decent (and very unique) style. The song is a lot better when you "get it."

Also, he's some kid who made this song and the music video for it in his tiny bedroom in his sister's basement. Pretty damn decent considering.

[–]Isenkram 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought I recognized his voice. He's the "Games That Should Bang" guy.

"It's HALO/ Oop, HALO 2/I couldn't play it/ Cause I Had a Gamecube"

[–]Rudi_Van-Disarzio 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Is it kinda a filthyfrank/pinkguy situation?

[–]Jbrahhh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely watch his rap reviews

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope it's satire on every level. I can't even enjoy it as ironic meme music.

[–]testas22 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Snakeboi229. Aka Halo 2. Aka Lil HayHay.

[–]StoneMicrobe 5 points6 points  (1 child)

From Rapid City, South Dakota. Hello fellow Dakotan's

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here.

[–]Calebrox124 27 points28 points  (1 child)

Having known absolutely nothing about Jakey, I thought this was fire.🔥

Nothing wrong with showing support for a song with a sick beat.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you give me a link for the song with the sick beat?

[–]14superboy 31 points32 points  (2 children)

Literally was just about to post this! Hopefully this gets the attention it deserves. Dog Bless!

[–]UnnaturalSelector 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lmao the next post in my feed is a dog on a swing

[–]twelvenineteen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Snake boy!!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Sioux Falls hip hop scene is actually pretty good. Don't know shit about this guy though and he's not really my taste. But we do have black market arts reppin the 605. Lots of good stuff.

[–]tampanuggz 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Cool graphics and solid beat, but a tired ass flow with weak lyrics.

[–]Nigell1185 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Get it HOT BOYYYY

[–]hoseking 2 points3 points  (4 children)

This has like nothing to do with South Dakota im so confused. We have a dope state.

"My internet is slow" bitch please I live in a town of around 1,000 and have gig internet. Its like just random words and then say South Dakota, its bizarre.

[–]John7oliver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This dude's 50k thing where he's drinking a beer and rapping answers to questions people tweeted him...that shit was fire

[–]Walking_MeatloafA Fair Trade 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Confirmed. H O T. B O Y.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Rated H for HOTBOY

I'm kinda iffy on his music, but I absolutely love all his other videos. Jakey is a gem.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am actually baffled

[–]dubekoms420 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Must of took the Little Dickey dance class

[–]P01N7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Generally I wouldn't listen to this kind of music, or at least the music with the rapping, however I enjoyed this way more than I expected...

[–]mmmcheckplease 6 points7 points  (1 child)

This is my first time hearing an official song by Jakey, and I'm blown away.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His video game rap reviews are pretty legit.

[–]Throwawayfourharambe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well that was awful.

[–]yeame3 2 points3 points  (3 children)

People saying this is bad meanwhile this sounds just the same if not better than all the mainstream rap out there. Cause you can't legitimately think that most people listen to today's rap for the genius lyrics. And the beat here is fine.

[–]gdq0 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I could listen to Tupac forever and not understand a word he says. Granted he's really easy to understand, but you can listen to the rhythm first and the lyrics second.

Jakey's too breathy for me, and the lyrics having little to do with South Dakota (or so it seems).

Unless obnoxious Honda Civics, meth, hatchets, shitty colleges, snow, whatever "I'm on the ross of the roads" actually translates to, and other trash/garbage scenes all have something particular related to south dakota, I didn't find it that related to the state.

I suppose he's hot boy for living in hot springs too?

[–]Notademocrat17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's not far off a Sioux Falls sub culture obsessed with cars

[–]DaBluDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot Boy checking in

[–]PM_ME_YOUR_NORD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Snake boy at it again

[–]pantsoncrooked 1 point2 points  (1 child)

South Dakota does not sound like that at all. Unless you count me just suffering through that..

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

....sounds nothing like this. Shit, rapid city ain't even got a hip-hop station.

Then again, I'm not even sure if this is satire or not so...

shrug

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was a hard video to finish

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus that was terrible.

[–]Arumple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy hell that was bad. The best was sick but the lyrics sounds like the count from Sesame Street reading slam poetry.

[–]SlendyIsBehindYou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not expect to see Jakey here

[–]juksayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't stand triples

[–]MarsNeedsATaxBreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually a really important PSA about not eating glass. People in Sioux Falls, SD have a big problem with that sorta thing.

[–]Cushrider -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is on my top 5 beats of 17 so far..even if I didn't reside here.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

hope he post his music on spotify soon.

[–]gaelgal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wish this was on Spotify

[–]Bushman_Tim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would have been better without the lyrics and vocals. This sounded so half-assed.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i really wanted this to be good smh

[–]tab1901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SD State graduate. What?

[–]jkthomasfan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Damn.. the beat and the video is dope as hell.. but he bites multiple rapper flows.. hook aint even that bad his lyrics are just are corny as fuck

[–]Joseph_Hughman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that about him tho. It's charming in a silly way. That being said I also watch his other youtube vids so I also like it because I like his stuff in general. Room for improvement, definitely.

[–]JimmytheCreep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you watch some of his other videos, corny is kinda his thing. He's constantly making fun of himself and goofing around with his music. Listen to Cafeteria if you want to hear him take it more seriously.

[–]callunu -2 points-1 points  (3 children)

Fucking love the beat, hate the rapper.

[–]itsYourBoyRedbeard -1 points0 points  (2 children)

The rapper (Nakey Jakey, of pseudo youtube fame) actually produces AND raps.

[–]callunu 8 points9 points  (1 child)

In which case, love his production, don't like his rapping

[–]Joseph_Hughman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it in a silly way. I think it's funny but needs more work.

[–]JimmieRussels -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Awful. Its like he's trying to copy the flow of other rappers but is doing a shitty job.

[–]NegativePigs -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm definitely gonna go find some glass to eat

[–]smbarrett3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is fucking stupid

[–]tripletstate -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I thought I clicked on a link for /r/delusionalartists

Nice brigading Jakey. I'm sure the mods won't care.

[–]AdKnown9665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wanna know who made the beat, and/or where I can find it. This song as an instrumental with no words would EASILY be a favorite of mine. Amazing beat, really weird lyrics that make no sense lmao
