Teens React To Juice WRLD, Hamilton & More | WE'RE BACK IN THE STUDIO!

- (FBE) We showed six reactors
the number one trend

in four different categories.
Do you know which musical

was the top of the town,
what album had a master debut,

and which TikTok trend
was the most viral?

This is Top of the Month
for July 2020.

♪ (upbeat music) ♪
- Not the damn cakes!

Not the damn cakes!
- Aww, these are absurd.

- Okay, I wouldn't wanna
eat toilet paper cake.

I don't know.
That's just me.

- Interesting, but I feel
like I've seen stuff

like this before.
But it's really cool.

- I have not seen that one!
Oh my god!

- Oh my god.
The creativity.

- Ah, yeah.
- How do you make suds?

How do you make suds edible?
- I've seen that meme for sure.

See, my question always is,
it looks amazing,

but does it taste good?
- I don't know why everyone

finds these
completely unsettling.

I used to watch
these videos regularly.

- "Oh my god.
Wait, it's all cake?"

(chuckles)
"Always has been."

- Is he holding the knife
to kill him after he found out

it's cake, or did he
just cake the Earth?

- I've seen too many, like--
I saw one where people

were saying, "There's a reason
why they knock you out in surgery.

They don't want you to know
that you're a cake too."

- (woman sniffling)
- What is this?

- Don't tell me that's cake.
- (laughs)

- (woman) I have to find out...
- Oh, shoot.

- (woman) ...if she's cake.
- NOOO! (claps)

- Oh my...
- (woman) Don't make this

harder for me.
- Awww, the poor puppy!

- Maybe you're a cake.
Maybe I'm a cake.

You'll never know.
- The sniffling at the beginning.

"I have to find out."
No, you don't!

- (FBE) This is the top meme
that we've seen circulating

on the internet this last month
called Everything Is Cake.

After the food site, Tasty,
posted a tweet showing everything

in the video was cake,
people kind of went crazy

and the meme flourished.

So, what did you think?
- Stop!

- (FBE) Is this a meme
you're on board with?

- Yes! I mean,
I find it completely crazy,

and I find it so stupid,
but it's so funny.

- It's cute and fun and fresh.
I hope it inspires people

to play with fondant
and make their own

fun little cake creations.
- (FBE) Okay. Well, next up,

we have the top trending musical.
- Top trending musical.

What the fudge?
- Hamilton?

- I wonder what that could be.
Um... (sucks in breath)

I don't know, maybe his name
is Alexander Hamilton?

I might be wrong.

♪ (suspenseful music) ♪

- Bro, Hamilton!

- Ooh, Leslie Odom!
Stop, Lin!

Ah, Thomas Jefferson, mm.
- It's really good.

- I haven't seen this.
- ♪ May you always ♪

- It's so powerful.
- Ooh, Phillipa Soo, the flavor.

Jonathan Groff, the spit. Mmm!
- Lin Manuel Miranda

has been a meme as well. (chuckles)
- (man) ...is Hamilton.

- (sing-song) His name
is Alexander Hamilton.

♪ (dramatic music) ♪
- ♪ Alexander Hamilton ♪

- Not discrediting anybody else

in this musical,
but Renée Elise Goldsberry,

the woman who plays Angelica,
can SING!

- I've been watching Hamilton bootlegs
for years, so I've been waiting

for a Hamil film to come out.
- My best friend was so upset

about this, 'cause she had tickets
to see the show, and then,

you know, everything happened.
And so, she's like,

"I'm not watching it on Disney+!
I am waiting to see it live!"

- (FBE) Hamilton has been one
of the most popular musicals

for the past couple years.
- Yeah.

- (FBE) And it has always been
very difficult to get

a theater ticket for the event.
- Yeah.

- (FBE) The full musical
was just released on Disney+

at the beginning of July.
With Hamilton having seen

such success with being released
on a streaming platform,

do you think that we're gonna
see this happen more in the future

with musicals?
- I mean...

Maybe.
I feel like Disney's very smart,

and they know where to make money,
and they know how to keep fans

supplied and happy.
Would I rather have seen it in person?

Yeah, but I can rewind on my TV.
- Yes, please.

I've had this discussion
so much with other friends.

Like, I don't know why.
We know there's professional

recordings out there.
They're just gate-keeping it.

For what? This is the perfect time,
especially because all of Broadway

is shut down for God knows when.
Also, it tells you so much more

about the musical.
Like, Jonathan Groff spitting?

I would've never know that.
I would've never guessed.

- ♪ And no! ♪
♪ Don't change the subject! ♪

- (FBE) We are gonna move on
to our top trending music album.

- Okay. Oh, I'm excited!
(claps) Okay, okay.

- ♪ I can't breathe ♪
♪ I'm waiting for the exhale ♪

- Is this Juice?
- Is this Juice WRLD?

I'm so sad. Frick!
- I really don't listen to his music.

- I think I saw him
at one of the last concerts he did.

- ♪ Drugs killing me softly ♪
- He had such a beautiful voice.

- This makes me sad.
- ♪ Phone call from depression ♪

- Wow.
- ♪ You used my past

and my memories as a weapon ♪
- It's a good song.

- ♪ On the other line,

♪ I still try even though... ♪
- No!

- ♪ ...I know I'm gonna fail ♪
- Ah! "I still try even though

I know I'm gonna fail"?!
- His music, like,

gets you in your feels, right?
And it makes you feel understood.

So, I feel like once people
connect with that, it's just natural

that they wanna listen to him again.
- There have been a lot

of other artists
who have passed away,

and it's always these artists
that are in the same music genre,

so it's when-- like,
your favorite artists,

you don't wanna think
who's next.

- I wasn't even that big
of a Juice WRLD fan

until I saw him live.
He was so real and raw in his lyrics.

You can hear it,
and it's obviously relatable,

which is saddening in itself.
But hopefully, his death

causes his fan to think a little more
about drugs they're taking

and just people in general.
There are serious repercussions.

- (FBE) Lastly, we have
the top TikTok trend in July.

- Oh. I'm not on TikTok. (laughs)
It's the one thing I've held out.

- ♪ Don't even make sense ♪
♪ Put the rolly on my wrist ♪

- (chuckles) I have seen these.
- Ah! I love this one!

- Yup, he hit that!
There it is!

- He was waiting
for that moment to shine!

He throw [censored]!
That's a cute trend.

I really want my boyfriend
to do it with me,

but he doesn't wanna do it.
- (FBE) Not everyone has

a significant other
they can do it with.

Some people do it with their dads
in one of those.

- ♪ Don't even make sense ♪
♪ Put the rolly on my wrist ♪

♪ So they know what time it is ♪
- Oh my g-- (gasps and laughs) Stop!

- Yup. (laughs)
- Ah! The-- he's single?

The tattoos!
- That one is so funny to me,

because some people really go all out.
- Damn, he's like full on macho man.

He's got his tattoos and muscles.
(laughs)

- That's bringing a lot of hype
to the song too,

because when you hear the song,
a lot of people just think

of the trend now.
- I kind of like the reveal

of how crazy are they gonna
have their guy kind of like

and what is the guy gonna do.
- You can't escape these TikToks.

I've tried, and it just shows up
on my Instagram instead.

- (FBE) Well, finally,
are there any other big trends

that you've seen recently
that you think should've made it

to this list?
- I know this made it in June,

but the Don't Leave Me Challenge
is still really funny.

- Valorant is free to play,
and I've just been playing this game

literally for hours on end
every single day.

- I need a bad bleep,
Addison Rae,

lil shawty the baddest,
and she got her ways.

- The August Alsina, Jada thing
going on, so I've just been seeing

a lot of that in my feed personally,
which is SUPER trending

on top of trending.
So yeah, that's probably

the only one I can think of.
