More NF!!! He’s a Christian who raps not a Christian rapper

[@benadek6703]

Facts nf hates Christian rapper labels

[@thekindred999]

Stole the words right outa my keyboard.

[@kylechristenson9096]

Really wanna see then do story by nf great song to react to

[@valle4193]

Thank you

[@moonjunhui13]

Lmao I literally commented the same thing before seeing this 😂 we thought the same thing

[@sushantyelve198]

Welcome to NF family!!! 🗝

[@alpha_cue7527]

You want to hear emotion listen to “How could you leave us” NF, “Oh Lord”, “Paralyzed”, “Let you down” “Therapy Session”

[@AroundCorner20]

‘Paralyzed’ makes me cry like a baby every time.

[@dimitrijepantelic3847]

How could you leave us*

[@wyeth1023]

existential crisis in a playlist, those tracks hit fn hard

[@PanameBossOfficiel]

Let Me go, My Stress, Only, Hate Myself, Miss the days, Prideful, Dreams just comin off from the tip of my tongue that are much better tracks if u want emotional. Therapy session & How could you leave us is ofc on par with his best tracks

[@luuk5225]

How does nobody mention "Trauma"

[@MisterMonsterMan]

You unearthed a gem. He has dozens of incredible songs to dive into.

[@matthunt9897]

NF is Mr. Cinematic. Glad you guys enjoyed what he has to offer. He’s an emotional rapper to the core. 🔥🔥🔥

[@rogersmith434]

Yup cinematic rapper

[@dalewhiting2895]

NF is is absolutely incredible! The search is a great video to watch great message like in all of the songs

[@_erik_100]

Great reaction! Really like your guys's vibe NF - The Search next, it will explain more about him, and what he usually raps about. This song was a bit of a different style from him, its also on a mixtape and not an official Album so thats why.

[@savannahsmith3237]

This song introduced his new mixtape: CLOUDS. You guys gotta do the whole mixtape because it's fire!

[@KeanF84]

Stoked to come back for more NF reactions. This track is badass, but unless you listened to his past music it might feel a bit odd/different ? His albums are a big story. You havent even scratched the surface. NF is actually unreal.

[@jeffrhodes8103]

Besides this clouds mixtape I think it’s crucial to understand him from the very beginning and see just how masterful his career has been done

[@Hme5634]

NF The Search!

[@craigdunn2683]

Glad you decided to start the NF Journey

[@ej7325]

He actually did the car scene at the end. Glad you’re enjoying NF. He’s amazing

[@Tristana.Keauna]

NF is amazing! You have to check out "The Search"!!

[@davidsomers1]

More NF please, “mansion” next, how could you leave us” is super emotional, “story” is a great movie piece

[@thomaswade9381]

One of his greatest Masterpieces is his song "How could you leave us" . This song has brought so much healing to many people including myself.

[@RafaelGHN]

loved the reaction, already a fan of the channel

[@sanitycheck1828]

im subbed and straped in for the journey!

[@cliffyates4493]

Thank you for this reaction !!!! PLEASE FO NF’s “THE SEARCH....!!!!!” It is so an awesome message. NF is becoming extremely popular with a new generation of young people, who are experiencing great anxiety and depression. He is considered perhaps the top lyrical rapper today. And he can rap with anyone. And yes... no cause words. But do - The Search next. Please !

[@epinibrahim4649]

more NF please

[@ringu_kamch]

More NF let's go!

[@lorenzomartinez5496]

Let you down hit a billion streams on Spotify. Nf is here, and we stand behind him. 1 million.

[@lmfw9789]

Man I appreciate y'all's connection. I can see it clearly!

[@jeffwalega5200]

If you thought that was like a movie watch Story by NF

[@jaidenperez8494]

I highly recommend therapy session and outro from NF!!

[@XehanortLP]

And welcome to the journy! And congrats on MANY new people watching you 'cause you get addicted to NF first reactions xD

[@katabinlagging768]

Great reaction ! to understand Nf you have to go back all the way back from his first album, he references a lot of things from older songs and albums, here's the right list to go by order : Mansion (Album 2015): -Intro (Music Video) -Mansion -All I Have (MV) -Wake up (MV) -Notepad (MV) -Paralyzed Therapy Session (Album 2016): -Intro 2 (MV) -Therapy Session (MV) -I Just Wanna Know (MV) -How Could You Leave Us (MV) -Real (MV) -Warm Up (Single 2016) (MV) Perception (Album 2017): -Outro (MV) -Intro 3 -Outcast (MV) -Green Lights (MV) -Dreams -Let You Down (MV) -Destiny -If You Want Love (MV) -Remember This -No Name (Single 2018) (MV) The Search (Album 2019): -Why (MV) -The Search (MV) -When I Grow Up (MV) -Time (MV) -Leave Me Alone (MV) -Change -Nate -Returns -Like This -Paid My Dues (Single 2019) (MV)

[@halmond9375]

Yes for this!! People will say that the "journey" list doesn't matter but NF is one that references a lot of his older work in his new work. So if you really want to get him I think that this list is the way to go. You will get a lot more out from his music in this way. You don't need the fans being explaining everything to you in comment section with this.

[@butato1]

Hello, i'm from Brazil and i can to guarantee that nf is come to turn your favorite artist, just seeing what you said about the rest of the rap, keep doing nf reactions, you'll love it! love your chanel

[@jeremyparks77]

New Subcriber because of NF and boy you are in for a treat. He is truly an amazing artist that cares deeply about not only his craft but the details that go into it. Do- The Search, When I grow up, Leave me alone and then go back to the older stuff like Therapy Session, Intro, Mansion etc...

[@jbrewer8941]

Everybody the first time says “it feels like I’m watching a movie”... but don’t worry... Nate knows it too... P.S. you have no idea what a Pandora’s box you’ve opened now wit NF and the Outcasts... just remember... you asked for this and invited it on yourself hahahaha...

[@RTMassacre09]

Love NF's music! Definitely go on the NF journey. It is so worth your time.

[@austinstone765]

Great reaction. Can’t wait for more. Do the Clouds Mixtape first. Also, Sarah, has anyone told you that you look like Elena Della Donne?

[@hq78787]

Check out the song NF - Mansion! NF is an artist who is amazing at expressing emotion and mention health issues.

[@boynextdoor9528]

oh boy, welcome to the NF journey!

[@devonwithers3798]

MORE OF THIS PLEASE

[@PMPGunSLinger]

Welcome to the NF rabbit hole. He sounds like Em because he's said in interviews that Em was his biggest influence as a kid. He also grew up 2 hours north of 8 mile as well so they have similar pronunciation of words. His style is very different though. His producer Tommee Profit also makes movie sound tracks so that explains a lot and is also very different from Dr Dre. Try Intro, Manson, Therapy Seassion, Paid My Dues, The Search, Story, Lost.... Theres so many.... Have fun.

[@luckisendless]

Yes more NF! He’s got a whole journey of his discography where you can see his progression and the overarching story he conveys throughout his music since most of his songs are connected from start to current. If you have the time, you should do it!

[@kaidananderson3434]

go on the NF journey all the songs in order its so great to get to watch him basically evolve with depth and all this other stuff it lets you under stand his music so much better like how the search cunfuzzeled you it will be explained and i hope that you do cant wait to see where this goes best of luck

[@lmfw9789]

God bless y'all!

[@arcticblaze2754]

KJ-52 I completely forgot about him 😂😭 thank you for mentioning that

[@sakshamprasad9594]

Please next nf when grow up

[@alickadmvula2771]

New to your channel, NF is definitely one of the realest rappers there is at the moment .

[@danigal7054]

good reaction try/Hopsin Bella ciao!! Thank You!!

[@JerrySmart]

The word you are looking for is "agressive" that's the energy I get from NF and I love it! Great reaction... take the whole NF journey. Take the red pill and go deep down the rabbit hole. :-)

[@ArtSiegert]

Welcome to the NF Journey!

[@billburns9260]

I Believe What You're Trying to Say is NF & Eminem Are Similar in their "Intensity"! Both Have a Awesome Ability to Convey Their Emotion Through Tone!.

[@davidsimonds7963]

Now that you have done this please do Mesus ( NF clouds remix ) you won't be disappointed. It's done respectfully and he does the beat justice.

[@angelaswanson1077]

I guarantee if you take the whole NF journey you will be a huge fan. I discovered his music about 6 months ago. He is phenomenal in every way! A huge talent! He has a great singing voice too.

[@trailbeaneradventures5581]

Welcome to NF. You will not be disappointed. New sub for the NF journey.

[@Ana-ok4hc]

Subscribed for more NF reactions 🖤

[@kaseyholmes5762]

I’m here to watch how y’all take the journey of NF. There is a lot of symbolism in his videos. Great message too. Get the list and start at the beginning. It’s a mind things

[@keneanz7194]

More NF lets goooooooooooooooo

[@acelcruz222]

🔥🔥💯💯 Reaction, looking forward to your NF Journey, you won't be disappointed!! NFrealmusic 💯💯

[@thomaswade9381]

Here for NF, SUBBED

[@SagnikBakshi0325]

NF is not just an artist. He's an emotion. One in a billion artist. He's like an umbrella in a destructive storm. The more you guys explore his music the more you'll fall in love with his music. Please check out his studio albums such as THERAPY SESSION, PERCEPTION, THE SEARCH. All are better than the last. Also check out his CLOUD THE MIXTAPE. It's remarkable and unique.

[@jcsadog]

New sub 🔥❤😎

[@FishermanMike253]

New sub. Nfrealmusic! Stay blessed!

[@MansterBear]

Haven’t checked the comments yet but I’m gonna assume there’s tons saying “Do the NF journey” and I hope you guys do. I love finding reactors who have never heard him at all and then dive in to his catalogue. If u do, you’re in for an emotional trip. And I expect to see tears a few times lol Edit: just realized this was just posted yesterday. I do hope you guys do the full journey. He’s got so many songs and his whole career kind of tells one big story. And newer songs often reference things he’s said in older songs.

[@Noridaii]

Here for nf. Great reaction

[@jasonharter4876]

You need to watch ( you dont have to react if you dont want to) "How could you leave us?" by NF. I say you dont have to react because I am quite certain it will at least make one of you cry. But its a really good song and gives great insight to what NF has had to deal with.

[@angieortiz5636]

Oh boy NF is AMAZING...No turning back now he never disappoints #RealMusic

[@gunner9648]

NF the search 💯🔥🔥🔥 new sub

[@awonddy]

NF is my favorite rapper

[@wedoprods6088]

this song fire

[@codypotter8967]

Hey I remember kj 52! Im glad she said that I forgot all about him!!! Yapl should react to his songs "dear slim part 1 and 2!!!!

[@rogersmith434]

But not kj52 dance like bill Cosby song...

[@randomjokers7185]

Super late to this video but I believe you were thinking of Spoken Word. Excellent reaction to an amazing rapper/artist

[@zachwright7282]

There’s actually a whole story that expands thru his music videos so u can’t go wrong with reacting to em in order none disappoint for real for a starting suggestion I’d check out intro and go from there

[@robbiej6845]

If you are interested in a the evolution of NF i would recommend doing "the journey" there are many different version that people did on KZbin so basically reacting to a few (story telling connecting) songs from every Album

[@markuss4118]

Thank you for the amazing reaction-Video! NF is a Rap Poet and by the way a good singer. If you want, start the NF journey from the beginning. Start with "Intro", "Mension", "All I have" and "Notepad".

[@brandonkavan]

KJ-52 mention?! I love it. Great work.

[@MrStlcards69]

This is true passion and emotion and heart! To reach out to those that can relate! Listen to therapy session and the mansion and the search with the black balloons which are his burdens he carries! NF is amazing he a Christian that raps! He puts out messages to others that struggle and can relate to his hurt pain passion and goal

[@alanwilliams742]

Start at the beginning and Do The Journey! The songs tie together. There's a play list to go by and you won't regret it!

[@nunomuacho446]

Man you guys have alot of work to do on NF :) Intense is NF's middle name

[@_ParkerJackson_]

Yes!! More NF please! You can’t go wrong with NF or Tom Macdonald! Edit: I suggest checking out “The Search” by NF next.

[@lorenzomartinez5496]

Nf is just a rapper. An amazing artist. Better than all rappers except two. Dead or alive. Those two have decades rapping. Nate is just getting started. He will be the goat. If he progresses like he does in every song. He will be unbeatable.

[@trupraizerify]

More NF! He's the goat! I love Tom but NF is just a different breed. He's the goat in my book!

[@optimusprowse6448]

I got to say, the KZbin rap scene has some dope ass people. Most of them are doing everything on their own. Crypt, Chvse, Postcard, Lex Bratcher, Luke Gawne, Gatsb7, Snow Tha Product, Scribe Cash... There are some crazy talented people out there. And most important: None of them mumbles!

[@MostlyUnKnown_777]

I was in the same situation, stopped listening to rap a while ago. I randomly found Tom Macdonald as well, he's amazing. Here's a list of the rabbit hole of rappers I now listen to daily NF Ryan upchurch Adam calhound Snow the product Hopsin Deamon Jones Savanna dexter All are independent and will really make you enjoy rap again

[@andyg14602]

loved the video. there is a thing called the NF journey. its a specific order to listen to his music in to understand his story. it will blow your mind! guy is a genius. heres the list if u want...

[@jeramiedavis5305]

need to do the NF journey

[@Blantenks101]

NF- remember this, how could you leave us, mansion, therapy session.

[@demon_t5315]

Guys, when he says “slow me down, impossible” the flow slows down lol

[@realhammy420]

More NF 100%!!!!

[@PanameBossOfficiel]

the fact that I'm still here after u said u were blown away by Tom is blowing me away, Tom def. isnt something Hip Hop represents. Clout is something Tom Represents, Clouds is something NF represents :P

[@ThePackageLives]

NF - The Search

[@lyamgray9796]

NF Remember This you will love it I guarantee you.

[@rachellewood3268]

KJ-52 - my siblings and I loved him when we were younger.“Ya Bref Stank” is a classic.👌🏼

[@RandomBenie]

I only subbed for that KZbin name lmao OK I'll watch this now.

[@Steph-uq9lh]

Oh man his music is life-changing and I'm not even exaggerating! I never listened to rap. I never enjoyed it at all until I was introduced to NF And then Tom MacDonald. Here are some suggestions: the search, outcast, paid my dues, leave me alone, why, intro, oh Lord, change, real, returns, destiny, and his entire clouds mixtape. After you listen to all of these then go back and listen to all of his music from the beginning. There are so many more if I listed all of this important songs I would probably put 99% of his titles on here.

[@Musicality-66]

Great reaction! Normally I wouldn’t be familiar with this kind of music, but my 16 old son is a huge fan of NF. Glad he don’t listen to those mumbling bad mouthing rappers anymore. His is also a fan of Eminem, but the lyrics of NF appeal to him more. I think my son told me that NF raps mostly about mental issues and challenges in life. Love to see another reaction to his music. 💕🤘

[@amandaramirez2561]

nf has so much emotion in his music if you listen to more of his music.

[@XpD78]

NF Journey NF is an amazing artist. He is a Christian who raps, not a "Christian Rapper". He grew up to a difficult childhood and wanted to rap ever since he was a child. Eminem was his favourite artist and you could see a lot of Eminem influence in his rapping. But still he is different from anything or anyone else. He is unique in his own way. Also another interesting thing is, he doesn't curse in any of his songs no matter what, which is very very rare in this genre. He is an amazing rapper, singer and music producer. You can see his growth as a rapper as well as a person when you go on through his rap career. Many of his songs accross his different albums intertwine and connect with each other like different parts of a movie. So you gotta go in order and start from the beginning. We call this the "NF Journey".

Some of the publishers were pissed that his album topped the charts at no. 1 even when he realeased it in the same week as another album by a big name in the industry, Chance the rapper. They were upset that NF (who in their eyes were just "an upcoming white rapper wannabe Eminem") beat Chance to go no. 1 at the charts. Here are the articles ⬇️ The NY Times - www.nytimes.com/2019/08/07/arts/music/nf-the-search-ybn-cordae-the-lost-boy-review.html Rolling Stone - www.rollingstone.com/music/music-album-reviews/nfs-the-search-is-a-one-note-depression-symphony-872720/ *📽️ Paid My Dues (Single - 2019) (Also a part of "Clouds the Mixtape") 🎶 NF - Clouds The Mixtape (2021) 🎶 *📽️ Clouds *📽️ Lost ft.

[@ksteckert]

When asked about it, NF said his last name is pronounced Fire Stine

[@comicaiadventures]

MORE NF

[@rudyfernandezjr.5251]

You got to do the NF journey from the beginning with the Mansion Album with Intro one and then Mansion the name of the Album then go on for there all the way to Clouds The Mixtape you will see his life story through the journey !

[@CycleOfJudges]

Damn shoutout KJ52. 52 Television was my shit when it came out. He has a song called He Did That which I always loved because 3 verses and a chorus is all in the same rhyme scheme. "did that/this rap/fix that/kit Kat/etc etc. Pretty impressive

[@adamwilliams2679]

I see it's been a while so you are probably all caught up on all things NF, but I was cruising the comments on this video and didn't see anyone explain that sound that you were digging. All of his albums have been produced by a guy named Tommee Profitt. He definitely has a flair for that epic, cinematic feel. He actually has cranked out a whole lot of albums himself. Some are original songs and some are "epic covers" (the Gilligan's Island theme will never be the same!). I'm sure you guys are pretty busy but if you get the chance check out at his Christmas album that came out last year called Birth of a King. It is Christmas time after all! If you only have time for one song make it "Oh Holy Night" or "Mary Did You Know." You will not be disappointed! Oh yeah--NF sums up his "Christian (?) Rapper" stance with a line from Therapy Session: "My music is not just for people who sit in the pews and pray in the churches."

[@AlwaysBeSmiling]

Great analysis on Em/NF comparison........obviously different in styles, but NF grew up on Em, so can definitely hear that in his rapping. Up until I 1st heard NF in The Search, only rapper that could consistently connect emotionally was Em. They are my 2 fave story tellers and fave artist. NF fans are crazy loyal, and many will suggest going on "the journey.." NF raps about his life, so hearing his songs in order tells the better story, and connects pieces better than if you jumped around. Like others in this thread, go on the NF journey, and listen to his songs in the order of his album releases. Enjoy, because when he's done, he'll be on Mt. Rushmore of best rappers to grace the planet.

[@Coe_Music]

NF JOURNEY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@therinzler86]

I will say that his message in most of his music is be yourself and not a person that you pretend to be and mental health. I think that sums it up
