Are there any channels of middle-aged white guys reacting to hip-hop?

Yes, there's a few metalhead reactors to Hip-Hop.  The ones I know best are these guys who try to imitate what George and Ryan do (in reverse).

Is there a metal heads or rap fans reacting to prog? And I don't mean Pink Floyd or Rush but any other prog bands?

Yes, of course.  Most of the reactors seem to be younger Hip-hop listening millennials.  Most don't focus on "prog", but they end up reacting to a lot of prog.

They're having another shot at this progressive metal tournament-thing. Too bad its Meshuggah who is beyond awful even at its best and a rather conventional Tool-tune (Ænema). Nice to see that they seem too agree with me on that - although in a more polite manner. I'd love to see them do a classic prog version of this... just because it would be interesting to see if they kind of "get it".

You're talking George and Ryan again--yeah I saw that.  Maybe sometime in the future they'll get into classic Prog, but for now they seem completely focused on Metal and Country. Probably because most of their fans/commenters are younger-generation.

George and Ryan finally got back around to a reaction to Rush:  La Villa Stratigato!

^ Yup saw that one Sunday......Ryan's a trip. But they clearly understand musicianship, at least at a better than surface level.
Country has been ruling their reactions for sure. I wonder if they really add these songs to their "playlist".

Late to the party here, but this Youtuber has an entire playlist reacting to Foxtrot:


He seems to really like Can-Utility and the Coastliners:




Good taste! It's my favorite Genesis song by far. 

Also a Dream Theater playlist (not to my taste, but I know many are fans):

I was junior high when I first heard this...how do music fans get to college before hearing Rush?

Molly, the girl in blue, my favorite... her first and especially her second appearance, when she starts headbanging and laughing made me laugh every time!

This guy loves Going For The One, like he's having a religious experience!!:

(There's a part 2 video, but for some reason couldn't put in this message).

Hadn't heard this Rush song in years, so when I saw this posted, had to watch.

Jamal's reaction to the rap part is hilarious! He appears to have been taken completely off guard  -- Long pause, then "Who was That??!!"

(I've watched it like 6 times now; still cracks me up!)

Jamel is one of my favs in this reaction genre......He seems to be a big Rush fan and appreciates the lyrics as he does lyric videos and mainly live videos.
Whats been great is he has done a lot of early Rush and that has inspired me to spin those early albums more.

Yes, he's done several Rush videos, including the entire Fountain of Lamneth and 2112, both of which he quite enjoyed. Thats why at the end of this one, he says "...I knew they had it, but I didn't know they had it quite like that!"
