The second diss is crazier, this whole thing brought me to upchurch and after digging through his content made me a huge fan instantly. Great reaction bro 👍

[@user-zx5fe8te4v]

Upchurch is a talented true dude who has been in this game for a long time but his game is alot more than just his rap. He is a true artist that just dont turn it off he is always creating and he does it multiple ways

[@kshin0716]

Loved your reaction! I feel the same way after listening to more of McDonald's songs. To give him his credit he seems a natural comedian, a good actor, and hilarious. I enjoy his shorts, most are very entertaining and good for a laugh. That being said, he doesn't come across as authentic in his views and opinions whereas Upchurch does. Upchurch talks the talk and walks the walk, so hats off to him, and whether you like his songs or not you have to respect him for being genuine. Btw I am also from the south so I can relate to his songs. Mad respect to Upchurch and mad respect to you. Thank you for reacting to this song, I enjoyed it very much! ❤

[@tnae]

I appreciate it. I got the reaction to the second diss ready to come out but this one isn't getting much play. I'd really appreciate it if you could share this around a little. Trying to break into a new space on youtube is a tough ask. Every little bit helps.

[@kshin0716]

@tnae I'll definitely help out as much as I can. Found your channel a couple of weeks ago and subscribed immediately. Keep up the great work, I can imagine how hard it must be, but you seem to be a genuine reator, and we need more creators like you on KZbin. P.S. Is there a way I can dm you?

Upchurch consistently gives us new sounds Tom is the cloned rapper he used to say he’d never be. Just because his lyrics come from the right doesn’t mean he’s on the side.

[@incubus755]

Built like that by Church is a good starting point. Best I have seen anyone who opposed the word address it. You have your opinion and viewpoint but did not harp on it. Church has around 500 songs and has used the word twice, both referencing white people. Not an excuse but just a fact, both songs were produced by a KalaniOnDaBeat, who is not white. I think the use was a poke at Tom for being so pro free speech yet he hints at but never says that word and also censors lyrics in his videos to get algorithm to push songs more.

[@seanleo3464]

I became a Tom fan during his whole mac lethal beef so his fans coming out cuz they’re butt hurt is so hypocritical and the fact Tom hasn’t answered is beyond shameful and I’ve certainly lost respect for him. I’ll watch his content but won’t give any of my money.
