Last week I indulged you with my insights on Act I of the smash hit, Hamilton. Join me again this week for my thoughts on Act II.
What'd I Miss
So, he really isn't giving up the whole "bastard-orphan" thing...
Thomas Jefferson is home... convenient that he missed the war.
You missed the memo on what kind of music to sing...
I think people who lived in the late 80s missed it too.
The South, yee yee
"Uh.. France" Jeez, Madison, did you not pay attention?
Cabinet Battle #1
I wish I was in NYC...
This boutta be lit
Quoting yourself, cute Jefferson.
You ain't planting any seeds, sir.
Land of the free? But SLAVES.
OK, here's Hamilton.
Yeah what do you do in Monticello?
Hammy callin him out on the whole slavery thing
YEAH YOU WERE GETTIN HIGH WITH THE FRENCH
#TeamHam
"I'll show you where my shoe foots." BOOM
Madison and Jefferson are so childish.
George ordering Hammy again.
Take a Break
Hey, I can count to 10 in French too.
Oh shit, he's writing to Angelica
I, too, am a massive pain.
With my knowledge, I know a grown man is currently playing a 9 year old and I can't
Yeah, Hammy, take a break.
Angelica is the only person who gets Hamilton on a mental level and it's sad.
HA Angelica is coming home lol.
Ha John Adams doesn't have a real job.
And good ole Hammy isn't going with them.
He's gettin his plan through Congress instead of gettin two women...
Say No To This
At least Hamilton calls himself a bastard-orphan
Jasmine Cephas-Jones has such a fire voice
And no my homie Hammy has not only cheated mentally, but physically.
SAY NO HAMMY YOU'RE A GOOD GUY
L O L HER HUSBAND'S LETTER #DEAD
"If you pay you can stay" well then...
The Room Where It Happens
"All he had to do was die." well guess that helps
Wow, Hamilton taking Burr's advice, that's new.
Foes to Bros, they real American story.
Isn't it funny how two of the major things in our country where basically decided between three men over dinner?
Leslie Odom Jr. has some pipes.
"But you don't get a win unless you playin the game" True
"You get nothin if you wait for it" L O L callin Burr out
Andrew Burr, the saltiest founding father.
"We don't get a say in what they trade away" me with the Cardinals
Schuyler Defeated
Burr literally changed his views just to piss off Hamilton. That is the definition of petty.
"Your pride will be the death of us all" F O R E SHADOWING AGAIN
Cabinet Battle #2
Time for Hammy to wipe the floor with Jefferson
Madison tries to be a hype man, but he fails.
Jefferson just causes me to constantly roll my eyes.
Hammy bringing the beat
"Uh do whatever you want, I'm super dead" l o l that was great.
#TeamHamilton
Who knew that hundreds of years later politicians would still be asking this same question.
Washington on Your Side
I feel some b*tchin comin on
Jefferson is giving us science and math lessons, cute.
Speaking of poor farmers Jefferson, you still have slaves over there or...?
So, you don't wanna do the work, but you'll end his career?
Shut up Madison *rolls eyes*
SOUTHERN MOTHERF*CKING DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICANS! Now that is my new favorite line.
l o l they think Hamilton stole money from the treasury hahahah if they really knew.
One Last Time
"Whatever it is Jefferson started it." Ha Ha they're such children.
NO GEORGIE DON'T LEAVE US
I DON'T WANT TO LEARN HOW TO SAY GOODBYE
You could continue to serve.
George wanted our nation to move on, but I don't think he ever expected this political mess.
You sure you don't wanna sit under a cherry tree Georgie? Hmmm?
I want to write speeches like Hamilton
THANK GOD WE DON'T LET PEOPLE BE PRESIDENT FOR 45 YEARS ANYMORE.
I Know Him
King George has returned
HA HA of course you aren't aware that people can step down from power
The jokes about John Adams's height kill me
The Adams Administration
Well, at least Burr didn't call him a bastard-orphan
But Adams called him a creole bastard...
"Sit down John you fat mother..." lol same Hammy
We Know
Hahah they think he embezzled
Nah, he just had an affair.
He may have mortally wounded his prospects, but his papers are orderly... Typically Hammy.
"Rumors only grow" #deep
Yeah, Burr can't say anything, he had an affair too.
Hurricane
"I couldn't seem to die" but I feel like you're about to.
For real, can I write my way out of Mississippi?
Ugh, the music in this show is just beautiful.
Alexander Hamilton was genius with a pen and I'm jealous
The whole "wait for it" thing in the background is so ominous.
The Reynolds Pamphlet
No Hammy did not
Oh but he did
HE WROTE THE DETAILS OF HIS AFFAIR
Poor Eliza
"never gonna be President now" I wish this could apply to our current candidates...
Angelica came back
but not for Hamilton #awkward
So this was America's first big sex scandal, fun.
Burn
Oh, Eliza boutta tear Hamilton up.
This is breaking my heart.
"I'm erasing myself from the narrative" excuse my while I go cry for hours
"You forfeit the right to my heart" @ all the dumb boys
"I hope that you burn" @ all the dumb boys again
Blow Us All Away
Phillip copying his dad's words, my heart.
lol lil player
George Eacker can piss off
No, not a duel...
"Everything is legal in New Jersey" Jersey Shore proves that
Idk who George Eacker even is but I hate him
Stay Alive-Reprise
Please live Phillip (even tho I know he dies)
I'm crying
This is painful
He dies on sept which is seven and he was shot on seven and i can't
It's Quiet Uptown
I am utterly depressed now
How do you live with the unimaginable?
"I never liked the quiet before" this changed Hamilton so much
"You knock me out, I fall apart" excuse me, LMM, that isn't ok.
She forgave him, wow I never knew a song could make me cry.
The Election of 1800
"Can we get back to politics" lol
Burr running for president? WHAT DOES HE EVEN BELIEVE?
And now they need Hamilton...
It's up to Hamilton
He chose Jefferson HA HA HA
"Jefferson has beliefs, Burr has none" BURN
Could you imagine if the person in second place still became VP?
Your Obedient Servant
Well at least he switched it up for once and said "orphan, bastard, whore's son."
Aaron Burr gets Saltiest and Pettiest in Founding Father Superlatives
"I have the honor to be your obedient servant" lol
Hamilton made a list of 30 years of disagreements, name.
"Weehawken. Dawn. Guns Drawn." So much drama.
Best of Wives and Best of Women
He's saying goodbye to Eliza :(
except you won't be back
The World Was Wide Enough
The were near the same spot his son died, RIP.
Bruh, they barely taught us about Hamilton, of course they wouldn't mention his glasses.
Hamilton's speach during this song is so chilling
"Burr, my first friend, my enemy" the accuracy
He sings "Eliza" and the tears come
Burr, screaming "wait" does not stop a bullet.
Too late, he realized the world was wide enough...
Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story
Now they all want to talk nice since he has died.
Eliza tells his story
"I wrote myself back into the narrative" STOP
She did so much just to make sure his story was told
Woah, Eliza Hamilton is the reason we have the Washington Monument? How come I did not know this?
And she opened an orphanage
"Who tells your story?" the ultimate question.
Thanks for followin this journey through Hamilton with me.
I have the honor to be your obediant servant K. Mill
