I guess the first time I heard of these was when Two Girls, One Cup came out. I knew enough not to watch it, but I saw this going around and seeing it was quite enough, thank you.
Here lately there are a lot of Youtubers who do this as either their primary gig or as something that they add from time to time. Here are a few of my faves. If you have some, throw them in. They're kind of an acquired taste, and sometimes I doubt that they are truly seeing it for the first time as they make the video, but overall they're fun. Either you get to see someone you like exposed to someone for the first time, or the reviewer exposes you to stuff you are not familiar with.
I really like these guys, and they've done a ton of them. They've branched out and done classic rock, heavy metal, all sorts of stuff, taking nominations and votes from their followers. Chris Stapleton has popped up in a number of them, because his sound so does not match his look. This is particularly true for black Youtubers doing reactions, because their audience does not expect it either.
Then there's
You got any?
That last guy does one on a Steely Dan song, plays about five seconds of the intro, slaps pause and exclaims "Thievin' ass rappers! That's where you stole that from!". I about busted a gut. I wish I could find it again.
