Lil Keed, NLE Choppa, And More React To Busta Rhymes’ Classic ‘Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See’ Video
‘He look like a hot Cheeto cheetah.’ …
Uproxx’s panel of up-and-coming rappers is back to watch another classic video in the latest episode of React Like You Know. This time, Guapdad 4000, Lil Keed, NLE Choppa, and the gang take in the eye-popping spectacle of a hip-hop video master’s breakout solo single. Busta Rhymes has often been called an inspiration for multiple generations for his inventive visual work with Hype Williams, so it’s only right our Freshman Class favorites and their peers react to Busta’s 1997 classic, “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See.”
Right off the bat, a few of their minds are blown. Louisville neophyte 2kBaby compares Busta’s bright red early video look to a “hot Cheeto cheetah,” while Baltimore’s Shordie Shordie is struck speechless after affirming “he was spitting that sh*t though.” NLE Choppa offers a thoughtful edit (“Me, I’d just put a bunch of guns in that motherf*cker”), Lil Keed praises Busta’s creativity, and Guapdad lends some continuity with a reference to our first episode (“Now, this some hand movement right here! Lil Cease should have watched Busta!”).
Of course, he’s referring to the debut episode of React Like You Know when the group took a look at Lil Kim’s “Crush On You.” Meanwhile, Busta just released his 12th album Extinction Level Event 2 and turned up in Harlem, New York to encourage fans waiting to vote.

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”
Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.
“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.
The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”
J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.
“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.
The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
