Hip Hop fan MollyBoy's reaction to Pearl Jam's Alive, MTV Unplugged - "Best vocals I've ever heard in my life."

MollyBoy says that at about 9-1/2 minutes in.

I'm posting another reaction video because I realized, after happening across a reaction/analysis video from a vocal coach last night, that I'd never watched a reaction video for Pearl Jam's music before. Couldn't resist checking out another.

I agree. Love seeing him discover how good his parents' and grandparents' music was. But it's bittersweet highplainsdem May 20 #2

This is the 4th or 5th video of his I've seen.
I think he's no longer a "hip hop" fan. I think he's a music fan

for him. He mentions here that he wishes he'd discovered this music earlier. When he did a reaction video for the Marshall Tucker Band's "Can't You See" he ended the video saying that they need some good new bands now, to bring back the sound of bands from decades ago. He added, "And definitely bring the '90s back, PLEASE" - which I did not understand till I saw his reaction to Pearl Jam.
