FIRST TIME LISTEN | Dax - "To Be A Man" (Official Music Video) | REACTION!!!!!

[@Budini67]

I was shocked to hear my husband say, "Every single day." when I asked him if this was how he felt. I had no idea that we were making our men feel this way. I'm honestly a bit ashamed. How do we atone up for making you guys feel like this? Loved your reaction, Ray!! 🎶🔥💖🙏🏼

[@twistedhermit2839]

To paraphrase the mighty Bill Burr: "if he is upset make him a Sandwich, hand it to him, and just leave for two hours and let him worship it.. it will be the best memory for the next few months." Much love for All fellow strugglers.

[@brandonbaker8584]

Dax is a severely underated. Artist. With hit after hit after... you get the picture. An underdog story. That should be shared. To the masses. Much love dax. You a real one. Thank you for all the positive uplifting music you have done. You have made an impact. In this man's life. Thank you.

[@DudeWithAGoatee]

You don't need to write every comment with so much space between every word bro.

[@brandonbaker8584]

Thats really the last thought on my mind at that moment. Sorry bother if it you😅

[@jonnyblaze872]

I think it’s because he’s going against the grain. Pushing positivity and not all this weird shit going on in the world today.

[@quinnholidy]

Go back a couple years Dax was a shit head to everyone don’t follow the image a person gives off he is still a shot person

[@jonneateh5815]

A dax Ren Collab would be great

[@bryannunn]

Thank you for Dax and this reaction. I am now seeking help for PTSD from military VA and wife is supportive

[@jamesjeter]

I'm love struck...by my baby ole how much I love this child of mine...boy ole boy Ray you will see why I feel like I do she such a joy to be around she's the sweetest thing God has ever put in my life and I love that baby ...she taught me all through my young adult life growing up with my 🍼

[@tysonhartle2439]

First time I heard this song I was a total wreck during and after it. It is 100% how I feel. I even had my wife come to me the other day and say that if we lose our house that she is blaming me, because I am here to bring home the money and financially support our family. How if we lose our house, she is blaming me. She said her responsibility is the home and kids (even though I do a good share of the housework and watch our kids when she has to run other kids to school and such). I heard this song that same afternoon she brought all this to me. Get a 2nd job, find a way to pay for our lifestyle... so it just crushed me to hear this. I sent her the song to listen to. Not a peep out of her.

[@MikeLyons2011]

Damn, right in the feels. This is an emotional punch in the junk. The dude crying in the truck before he goes inside to greet his family is some real stuff.

[@JohnSmith-mt8fd]

To whom to cry, my bad jk, but still..

[@mj13727]

Thanks for this Ray! My husband has been struggling for a year and this video just opened my eyes up to how he was feeling that he never talked about. I'm happy to say he's away getting help now and I'm beyond proud of him.

[@vibereacts05]

That is absolutely awesome tell him ill be praying for him

[@mj13727]

@@vibereacts05 thanks Ray I sure will. He moved to the final stage of treatment yesterday and now has more access to the phone. That being said I could pull myself together for 10 minutes once a day and he could tell I was struggling. He said he was going to ask to do the last few weeks out patient program because I needed him. I told him absolutely NOT. Thanks for responding I have fibromyalgia and when he first started having issues a year ago I got a job from home. I know he hates the fact I'm covering the bills but I remind him daily the last 13 years he has done all of it. I just want him back.

[@sharonholsapple]

I'm so happy for your husband!!❤

[@CrissiClark]

This song needs to be a good reminder to all us women. Give our men in our lives a hug. Let them know it's okay to take a break just never give up. They would give it to us. ❤

[@AzzekaTheRealOne]

Dear Men.....you are appreciated♥♥

[@vibereacts05]

Always

[@jjayp1]

Haha @3:55, me thinking 'come on Ray, that's for the next bar...' Respect.

[@brandonbaker8584]

Damn. Every so often. People are put in the right place at the right time. Going through it myself. And sitting in my garage at 1:38 am. Battling thoughts and for a distraction. I tuned to vibe reactions. and this is today's broadcast hmmm. Like you two are talking to me smh. Thanks guys. I'll stop blowing up comments now

[@philipmorris1651]

Keep your head up brother. I feel what you are going through. We've got this brother. Much love. Here if you need someone to talk to.

[@tedlitschauer9061]

Keep Your head and chin up and shoulders out .... been going thru it too my brother ....

[@seanseyfert5691]

This is the reality we live in. And after 17yrs in the Marine corps. I came home and went straight to work. 12-14hrs aday 6-7 days a week. Just heard this reaction while at work and i broke. Not afraid to say it. Keep up the dam good work Ray. Your a blessing in disguise. OORAH!!! USMC

[@The_Sweetest_Villain]

This track breaks my heart, and my heart breaks for every male in my life.... its not fair and not right... Have nothing but love for you Ray!! #mensmentalhealthmatterstoo

[@barbarastill744]

This song is 🔥🔥🔥to all e great Real men out there.... the family ♥️ needs you and you are definitely a huge part of it... ALL LOVE ♥️

[@billkelly3310]

this song hits my heart so hard as a single father of 3 i cant applaud it enough hes saying what the single largest mental health problem for men is and when we are minimized for our input it hurts far deeper than people realize

[@allenmullins9902]

when a man tells his boys that he got a girl friend. They ask what does she look like. When a girl tells her friends they ask what does he do for a living.

[@eviep7134]

Thank you! 🙏💯♥️😉🌞😎

[@noydb8310]

Dax hit us men hard with this one. Wow

[@patriciahughes7516]

I loved this breakdown of these lyrics and this reaction. I had like a million things I wanted to say about how we as woman need to show the men in our worlds support and love through action, but it took me like a chapter of space. Man, the only thing I'm going to say is that I'm happy people like you and Dax are creating a way to have the conversation. Because it's an important one to have and it will save lives.

[@toddkitchens9229]

Imo one of the most underrated and undervalued artist

[@buccaruu]

Great Reaction. Love your words.

[@Barakamengi1]

Y'all cutting onions here, I aint crying it's allergies. Okayyyy, i am crying. Kings all over the World, we appreciate you and thank you for taking care of us. Sorry, that y'all feeling like that 😢. Blessings Kings

I can listen to you the whole day , your wife and kids are lucky to have you

[@lindajohnson6514]

Love 💖 you Ray................ You get the whole picture 🖼️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Made me cry 😭 thinking about how much I miss my daddy 🥺

[@charlesbryson7443]

Wonderful and truthful. The video makes it much better, it adds more context.

[@johnathancojocar3046]

Been there a few times in the garage or in the truck. Thanks for the reaction and Major thanks to #Dax for this message.

[@TexasPicklz]

If it hasn't already, I hope this song crosses over into country music.. it is fantastic all around. The bars, the music, the tempo... the message is heartbreaking. We need to check ourselves and make sure that our men KNOW they are seen, heard and loved.

[@smoovfizzle8054]

We want to feel unconditional love

[@J_Bant]

I love you MAN!

[@nollnollett]

Song. Of. The. Year.

[@PMPGunSLinger]

I like your reactions. I like the realism that you bring to the table. I used to work in Brooklyn, now I live in the country too. Your videos give me a piece of that Brooklyn vibe that I miss here. Keep it going.

[@toddbonazoni2960]

Man...I just lost my dad in February. I'm 30 now. He wasn't my actual dad but since I was 12 he raised me as his own along with my best friend his real son and I will never ever forget how hard he worked and how much he tried to teach me to be a better man for my kids. This song is so beautiful and we seriously need to talk about this more. We as men really do embody this song. For all of us who work til we bleed n still don't stop, LETS GOOO!!!!! Vibe gang! Love ya uncle Ray

[@briang6815]

Songs like this and Dear Alcohol are my favorites from him.

[@jamesfoley1563]

On point with that 30 min reaction. I work from home now for the past 3 years, I only miss the office because it gave me an excuse to sit in the car before "being home".

[@chrisleitch7882]

what an honest and true reaction. ive never felt as close to an artist as dax, his songs just hit home and hit u with deep understanding

[@stevenetherington1079]

Just… Wow, I’ve came out a 10 year relationship with 2 beautiful girls I have every weekend and this song tells my story in full and as a single father now I’m still playing this role to full fill my girls needs in life and have no reason for stopping, while the ex moves on in less the a week, as it’s hard to experience I am thankful for that lesson but a shame my girls had to witness it, I believe there’s honest genuine and loyal woman out there that truly respect and appreciate what they have. To all my fellow hardworking men out there your worth more then you ever realise and loved more then you ever no by the real ones.

[@philipmorris1651]

Much love brother. Single dad life ✊✊

[@stevenetherington1079]

Much love to you too brother we all got this 💪🏻✊🏻✊🏻

[@jjayp1]

Mad respect to you, brother. Fight on.

Great reaction and commentary. And yes definitely had done that Ray just zone out.. Man I'm glad you did this one. Dax is fire. 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥😎😎😎

[@karolynswete]

Thank you for reacting so honestly to such an amazing masterpiece ❤️ "Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil." Proverbs 31:10-11 KJV

Yes I'm so glad you did this one watching now

[@Angus4277]

Hey Ray, just wanted to let you know I watched the entire video, and you are a real one. Wishing you and your loved ones positivity and prosperity. Keep up the grind.

[@dean2285]

Hey Mr Ray, watching your reactions to this Dax song and as soon as you started talking, I knew you was going to be giving the truth, and I love it, like you said this is one of my newest greatest songs, and I'm glad you shared this and your views, not all men may get it but the real ones get it and understand ❤❤❤❤, man when you said "when you pull up to the house and just sit there" do it all the time, 😅❤❤❤

[@CrissiClark]

I absolutely love your words you said. Even about women. Thank you for even speaking on us house wives. So glad I was shown how to dedicate myself as a wife after my husband passes. My grandma and my husbands grandma truly showed. Strong women who truly ❤ their husband's. Your not wrong about men either on this topic very grateful to have seen men in my life for this my dad and my husband's dad. Also love how you said no kid's. Then spoke to them. You have word's of wisdom some kid's need that speak that goodness into their hearts. You truly got it. ❤

May God see all men through ❤❤

[@blaircannon4269]

Dax don't miss he is incredible and real thank you again Dax for all your positive music 👑👑👑👑👑

[@austinduke6017]

You always keep it real man, this song is one on its own hand down right now. I do feel some women need a song like this for them as well but what it all comes down to is we're all disconnected to each other and don't understand what the other goes through in life. We all need to step up and start showing more appreciation to each other in the deepest and realest times. Love you man, keep what you're saying real like you always do.

[@tylerwolf8506]

Brother… not only do they not celebrate those men, but they punish them with high child support and by making it almost impossible for the fathers to have custody. Then you have a kid who is raised without his/her father in their life as much as they should and it repeats. I agree, LETS TALK ABOUT IT! Help heal us fathers!!! Give us a chance… because I know for myself at least… there’s not a thing I wouldn’t do for my son. It’s just sad I have to fight for it, and I know I’m not alone

I'm very fortunate to have mine she's been with me through it all, highs and lows house fires and loosing everything she had my back and was right beside me through it all.

19:24 man I’m lucky to have my fiancé. We’re getting married in two weeks. We’ve both work 2-3 jobs at a time for years. I’ve had a torn labrum in my shoulder for years but wasn’t willing to miss work. She made me get it checked out. I get surgery right a week or two after the wedding. She’s keeping 2 of her jobs until I get back to work. When I say I’m a lucky man, I mean I’m a lucky man

[@leahb.2209]

Your perspectives are amazing!

[@haleyhopes5774]

The pressure are too strong even before a young man has a household to take care of. When they turn 18 they are expected to have their whole damn life planned and mapped out. My 20 yr old nephew succumbed to the pressure on 2/2/2023. He had BARELY started living yet felt like he was constantly coming up short. PLEASE make it a priority to let ALL of the men you care about know how much they are needed, respected, and loved!

[@pfcampos7041]

Hey man loved your reaction!! So much wisdom in here. 😊

[@rachaelschmidt823]

Our men deserve better! Dax hit this one out of the ball park. Our men need support and deserve far greater than they get.

[@iNSANE0621]

Bro that talk about being easier on ourselves hit me so hard. Im out with a serious ruptured disc in my back and getting ready for surgery and things are getting tight from being out 2 months already and im getting so depressed and angry because i cant do my job. But its because im worried its gonna make my family fall apart. And im realizing that its not the money or my job, its ME! Because im so down. And now youre talking about the relationship with kids as im writing this and its hitting me harder. I didnt want to be laying hear at 2 am unable to sleep because of pain and depression, now crying my fucking eyes out. It aint pretty when a man cries.

[@jamesjeter]

So are you brother.

[@leilym961]

I was thrown back Dax is singing country? but this song hits. My dad is such a man, and now with a bad back, and knee and had to retire he doesn't know what to do with himself and is in a deep depression, 72 years old and doesn't know how to sit and just relax. Hes paid his dues and then some just like many men we just dont hear about them :(

Absolute bangin reaction again, Ray!! Stay awesomely you, Man.

[@janihensley5306]

I see the men in my life when I hear this song. It hurts me to think of the times I failed them or think I failed them. May God forgive me and help me to do better. Even when I’m snapped at or harsh words come from my sons may I find grace to show kindness and be an example.

[@nicolewatson638]

You have alot of valid points about REAL MEN AND FATHERS but statistically not many out there. And there is a double standard for mothers.. we don't get breaks we are 24/7 no mater what even when we are sick we still take care of the family and house hold cuz it's expected. Our society relies to much on old stereotypes. We need to move on from that and evolve

[@kevinkarbonik2928]

He really started changing after meeting Tom Macdonald, he rubbed off on him in a big way.

[@Azimuth2Campsite]

Thank you so much for the content. I enjoyed every bit of your wisdom through the entire video.

[@W4ll_fl0w3r]

I have nothing but respect for any father trying to be a father... any man who does his best to be there for those he considers family... actively participating in their lives. Any who think your only function is to work and slave need to get rid of the dead weight around them if that's the case. If your so busy working and slaving then you have no time or energy left to put anything into yourself let alone family and friends.... Congrats to your women if that's the energy you're giving her.. shame on her if it's all due to duress.... Both need to be doing their part to support each other making each other's lives better ... easier... taking into consideration the family's needs and wants... ❤❤❤❤

[@bill4824]

Can we speak on how anger is easier to process than pain, so that's why a lot of men are aggressive, because he was not allowed to learn how to properly process his pain, so he was forced to hide it and reprocess it as anger.

[@bondservantstodola]

Loved this react....srry I had to watch a couple other reacts first....had to build up to this one
