Country Singer Reacts To NF The Search

I'm a big fan of NF bc of how he explains mental health with his own emotions that a psychology book just can't do. I'm a Sociopath and am married to an introverted woman that suffers from sever depression and high anxiety. Our relationship started off rocky to say the least bc I couldn't see her mental health being that serious and I just couldn't understand. Since listening to his music, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I've been more understanding and have been very supportive when she's at her lowest. I owe a lot to that man. I don't have emotions myself but he's able to translate it very well that it actually gets through to me. I hope you enjoy the journey.

To understand the cage, swing, etc you would have to go back in his albums as they all connect to one another. There is a whole NF journey that a lot of reactors do that starts with the song Intro from his Mansion album from 2015. As others have commented, you have opened up a big can of worms.

[@XpD78]

As soon as I saw this video and got to know that you're a 1st time NF listener, I knew someone must've already commented about the "NF Journey" below, and I was right! :D There's a comment with a pretty good list and trust me, you must go in order with NF. It's a whole storytelling journey, and believe me it's worth it. You just a got a sub for the NF Journey. :D Also, as you're not a regular Hip-Hop/Rap listener, it's evident that when you listen to a song/watch a music video your point of focus is the video, the music, how it sounds, the beat, instruments etc. Which is pretty normal, but in Rap, the main focus point of the song is always lyrics. And for someone who is not a regular listener of rap, it is sometimes hard to keep up with the lyrics and understand every word, but trust me, the lyrics and the meaning behind them is an essential part of Rap (that's why I think all that mumbo-jumbo mumble bullshit going these days which is very popular, is not Rap/Hip-Hop). And especially with NF, his lyrics have so much deeper meaning to them and they're so real. And he is a pretty good Artist to start in the Rap world as he is not very heavy with the Double Entendres, Triple Entendres, Wordplay, etc. in his Rap like Eminem. He has some hidden/double meaning here and there but most of his lyrics are pretty straightforward, yet hard-hitting. That's why he will be "easier" to keep up than someone like an Eminem for example. And since you're new to the reaction world too, couple of suggestions : 1. It's Okay to pause the video as many times as you want to talk about something that you liked in the song, that's what we watch reactions for, your thoughts and feelings about the song. It's okay to pause, but try to always go back like 5-10 seconds when you start again after a pause. It really helps in catching everything and not break the rhythm of the song. 2. Try to keep the Captions on if you're reacting to a song that has an official music video, or else if it's just a song then try to react to a Lyric Video of the song, it helps understanding the meaning better in case you miss something. I think this is a pretty long comment, so I should stop now. 😅 Keep up the good work man!

[@MatthewRunaway]

Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to actually give constructive criticism over just hate! I really appreciate that and want to improve! I’ve been finding I have to listen to the song 3 or 4 times before I’m really getting it! I don’t know if that’s a comment thing or not. You’re very right! Normally I’m really listening to the instrumentation of a song, where rap is all about the lyric. I’m going to have to react to this mumble rap though people been commenting about it!! Any suggestions for that?

[@Noridaii]

Subbed, loved your NF reaction. As the others have said, there are continuing themes that build throughout his collection. I can't tell yet whether you will be a 'break all the lyrics down' sort of reactor, but you will miss 80% without being able to reference his previous songs. He is the only artist I have ever heard of that cross-references his own catalogue - as in, he refers to previously released tracks, but unbelievably, also foreshadows songs that haven't been released yet - it's pretty crazy. The other thing he does which (to me at least) is incredibly unique is that he anthropomorphises 'emotions' - talking about his feelings as if they are 'people' he knows, with human characteristics - it's really neat. Anyway, others have given you a track list. I'm just here for the ride. :)

[@MatthewRunaway]

Thank you so much and filming the journey stuff now! I hope you enjoy it! I'm going to dive into lyrics a bit for sure, but I want to have a discussion with everyone after each video so I don't miss things!

[@TheSwede9]

You seem like a pretty awesome dude for reactions, just stumbled onto your channel. Would love to see you do more NF, the only small thing I would suggest is for when you pause just do a quick left-arrow click on the video to rewind it a little bit, because sometimes stopping in the middle of a bar will make you miss things and NF is all about telling a story with very few bars, if any, that are just filler. Plus you'll avoid a million comments about missing x or y. I think most of his videos have subtitles too, while that can be distracting from the visuals if you're just reading the text, it can also help during the fast rapping parts to catch the genius that is him when you see it the first time. Completely optional but just a suggestion. Great reaction.

[@JamieJamz]

Hey Brother NF filmed this video in Iceland. The shopping cart and balloons represent all the burdens and baggage that he carries with him. If you listen to more of his music you hear how his fans tell him how his music saved their lives. The cage represents his fears, anxiety and pain of his past from abuse and his mother’s death from addiction to pain killers. Take the NF journey. Check out: Oh Lord!

Matthew Runaway There’s a big divide but I like both of them. Yeah just check him out.

[@MatthewRunaway]

Well then hell ya! Let’s check him out!

[@Killlerbee]

Welcome to NF LOL! he is truly under rated... the thing is his music brand name is NFRealMusic. It's raw and emotional and draws you in. The sequel to this song is "Leave Me Alone". The NF fan base is awesome and fanatically loyal. NF's music is also connected... his entire catalog is a puzzle that tells his life story from his first album to most recent. Those reactors that fall for NF take "the NF Journey" the start with the first album "Mansion" and watch (or listen to) a particular order of videos that reveals NF. So, are you game?

[@MatthewRunaway]

KilllerBee Hell yeah, pretty sure I am! Yeah, it’s crazy I’ve never heard of him before! But I became a fan instantly as soon as I heard his music. It’s hard, because I really just want to go and binge-listen to everything he has, but still want to keep the reactions true for the channel lol

[@Killlerbee]

@@MatthewRunaway Check out the sequel "Leave Me alone" but if you want to start the Journey... "Intro 1" then "Mansion" then All I Have". that will get you on the road.

[@marcusmaire8197]

He’s really good but I wouldn’t say the next Eminem, at least not Lyrically, but the hunger, anger, and substance is similar

[@MatthewRunaway]

Marcus Maire I actually agree with you, you’re right! I know I said that he could be the next Eminem, but what I really love about these kinds of artist is the fire and pissed-off nature of them...but you’re definitely right. Lyrically, it’s a bit weaker and the speed definitely isn’t there. But still, an unreal artist!

[@wonders5700]

Location was Iceland Welcome to the NF family🖤

[@MatthewRunaway]

Thank you!:) I though somewhere like that! Any songs you’d suggest to react to by NF?

[@spiral1580]

@Matthew Runaway yah (srry for really really late reply) the shopping cart is from a previous album and the people dressed in white is the good inside of him but if you look close enough you can see that they are also holding black balloons. The baloons are his burdins. And the cage in the back is from a previous album. Then at the end you see one of the people but a white thing inside of his shopping cart. If you look at any of his vids after this, you can see that it is still there in the shopping cart. (watch leave me alone, you can see it very well in the shopping cart in that). I hope you see this lol im very late

[@daniellevitoriaa840]

How could you Leave Us*

[@brianstone5138]

Kinda late to your party....I enjoyed your reaction. You already got the gist of the symbolism in his vids....but I also gotta say listen to his rhyme schemes. Most of his bars could be pulled out and turned to pure poetry - the guy is a true poet as well as a real AF rapper. And can we just acknowledge that he raps this hard to a symphony of strings.

[@thatsly_jaymer]

If you listen to many of his other songs, (like Outcast, Mansion, Intro III, etc.) you’ll notice the references. He talks about all his other songs in many of his songs. You should know his backstory before listening (no hate) His mother died from OD. He had a rough childhood as well. This is what he raps about- his depression, OCD, etc. And his slogan is NFreal music 😎 If you watch some of his other songs, they’re brilliant. Maybe take a look at his backstory and learn a bit more about him. So also, if you watch Leave Me Alone, you’ll see where he’s headed with the shopping cart and white clothes. You should really watch some of his other videos! Fair warning: if you watch Intro III, you should watch Mansion first Ok that’s all- i’m sowwy for wasting your time by reading this comment •~•

[@felipevasconcelos8837]

Thanks for this Reaction. Reaction more about him. In the clip he came out of the prison that was behind him, he was in that prison that's from the outcast song. He came out with a cart and the balloons, the balloons are his burdens/problems, the cart I interpret as a small prison, he came out of the larger prison but even outside it he still feels stuck, so he sits in the end inside the cart. The people in white I have the following interpretation, he makes a criticism. People in white are wearing black balloons, which could say that society pretends to be fine (white clothes) but in the background they are not (black balloons). But I'm not sure about this theory, I have another one, but I'm checking, analyzing the songs and clips to make sure about this theory. And he all in black would be to show that he didn't pretend to be well, he shows that he's bad and needs help, but now he's looking for help, and now he's looking for the map of hope.

[@MatthewRunaway]

felipe vasconcelos That makes a lot of sense! It’s crazy how well thought out all of his music/videos and brand are. So so good! Any songs you’d suggest checking out?

[@felipevasconcelos8837]

Matthew Runaway well, you could see the current songs like Paid my due, When I grow Up ... Or you can go back and start the NF journey, because the 4 albums and many of the songs are connected and follow a direction, better understanding it is better to start from the beginning in order. I can send you the list of songs here ...

@@MatthewRunaway There is the standard 'journey' which is a continuous connection of dots that give context to the concepts so you don't feel like the only tool in the shed constantly asking... 'what is that... what does that mean' nothing worse than being clueless and shoeless... lol you will get a few great list suggestions starting with intro one.... but many great tracks get skipped over in the process and two that have great videos to consider are Time and Wake Up....

[@Virpukka]

NF is one of the rare artist where you really benefit from going back and starting from the beginning of his work. A lot of things does make more sense when you know what he has created before. My suggestion is to go back to Mansion and start from there. I'm sure that the more seasonal NF fans are able to point the must see songs from his catalogue to understand him as an artist and his story. I'm also new in NF train so I'm not in place to do that. But my suggestion really is to go back to beginning with him.

[@MatthewRunaway]

I agree fully the start is where to go! I filmed one other last night that should be up in three day, but then I’m going back to the start!

[@Virpukka]

@@MatthewRunaway Yes. He really has these videos where he moves his story forward and imo that story starts from the song Mansion. It doesn't have video version from it but the lyrics are really what matters in there.
