FIRST time SEEING Tom MacDonald & Adam Calhoun - "R*** War" W/ Black Pegasus & Joe E Sparks!

[@kyleburge2251]

Tom was totally broke, living in the hood in South Central LA. He made a song that went viral. Now, he’s a multi millionaire. He is an independent artist, and answers to no label. He speaks his mind! Every one of his songs speaks a message.

“I’m here to make history, and not let old history define me” -that could literally be one of the best quotes of our generation. Love this bro!

[@buddygray1566]

I'm 57 , I remember in grade school about third grade, when the bus showed up and black student entered the school. I had never seen a black person at that age. I didn't have the attitude that the left is pushing right now. I became friends with those that would talk to me. Mark my words they were just as curious as me. Some of us are still life long friends. We went on through junior high and high school. Played sports together partied together and families hang out together. I understand the song, "to divide and concur." With us divided they can control us. You guys broke it down great, keep it up. A side note for those wondering why an old guy is listening to this music. This music started when I was a teenager. My generation is where it came from.

[@myowndrum286]

Well, I've got to say. I'm a senior, widowed lady, living alone on the farm. My grandsons were out for the weekend a couple months ago when I introduced them to Tom MacDonald's music. The oldest could not believe he had a Mema who knew more music than Queen, Pink Floyd and 60's hippy music! I'm the cool, awake Mema now in their eyes! lol

[@kodevicious]

I was liberal for a decade until 2018 I started changing my views when it became apparent to me how much deep seated hate all my liberal friends around me had and I did not see that same level of hatred out of my conservative friends or family.....and i thought the liberals were the ones who were suppose to be more accepting and loving...I got played.

[@johnjohnnston3498]

Most people are liberal when young because they are fooled by the false humanitarian agenda the left likes to claim, but once they start working and becoming an adult realize the other side is much better. Mind you I am sure most conservatives will tell you they do not like most the politicians even on the right in office as they are usually part of the same cabal. Trump (seemingly and hopefully) being the exception.

[@herpderp1662]

Everyone is a liberal, until their brain developes more than 6 cells.

[@corvuslight]

Right there with you. Watching the left become everything they previously opposed has been very shocking and sad.

The thoughts, dissection's and intentions behind this review are beautiful! Love how they listened and interpreted the lyrics but also have points to add! These are the types of things our nation needs to have a LOGICAL and controlled conversation about.

[@smittyrick]

I appreciate both of y’all’s commentary on this. I never listened to Tom. “White boy” was an off putting song title to me so I stayed away for a long time. Then I saw y’all react to one of his videos and it was different from what I thought. We have to look past skin and see what’s underneath we aren’t our skin we are what we do and y’all are doing a whole lot thank you

[@smittyrick]

Oh yeah and don’t worry about pausing too much it’s what we watch for. If I wanted to watch his video I’d be on his channel. Keep killing it.

[@BlackPegasusRaps]

That’s crazy cause that song through me off originally too!! hahah that’s wild. Much love

[@neverfeartruth6460]

@@BlackPegasusRaps What's up bro? Great reaction. Tom has asked for reactors to wait if they're gonna react to the Album, Tom said they're releasing a 1-hr video especially for reactors about the New Album. Maybe an entire 1-hr music video in the next week & said it will make a lot more sense to react to that before the Album. 💯

[@lawrenceshdow]

White boy song blew up and he paid big bucks to have it advertised all the time. I honestly thought it just wasnt a good song even though I could agree with much of it. Majorly click bait type theme with a hook that i still cant stand. I wouldnt have thought at the time that eventually id like the vast majority of toms music. But his real good shit is on the albums; or streaming services. KZbin he knows semi political content gets views. His "deeper" more personal songs about mental health; relationships; addiction; hopelessness, religion, etc.... Those songs are what really hit for me. I think tom knows that those are rarely the songs that get attention; as he has been around independent hip hop for a long time and seen that the music about that stuff tends to gather a smaller but more engaged base of fans. Part of me loves the adam calhoun bit... Another part of me cant wait to hear what tom gets at on his own.

[@neverfeartruth6460]

@@lawrenceshdow That's a LOAD of CRAP right there! Tom didn't pay BIG BUCKS to push anything cause he didn't have BIG BUCKS when he released that! Know what you're talking about before flapping your gums about things you have no idea about! "Clickbait"? Do you know what "Clickbait actually is? It's when you market a song with a name & do talk/sing/Rap about something different which Tom hasn't done. These guys are just Rapping about things they actually CARE ABOUT! If you're hating why are you on this page? In the end what the hell are you on about?

You make sure if you have to make a mark in this life make sure that mark is for making this world better and not for destroying it with the hatred of the past."

[@AlenahRose11]

❤❤❤ Love when you have Joe E on for Tom reactions, he has such genuine, amazingly compassionate energy, i just love watching him vibe to the music. I immediately subbed during the reaction when you introduced him to Tom's music. Honestly I love reaction videos where people introduce others to new music they haven't heard of yet and then discuss it, so those since you do that in to Tom I know you do a lot introductions to Ren which I love those videos as well, so much respect for you for that, because people need to hear their music, so thank you, and the fact that I get to watch the reactions is an added bonus. I appreciate watching people discuss the deeper issues that Tom puts out I feel like that's his motivation to begin with so watching people actually do that you know that these topics are getting discussed. The last thing I was just going to say is I'm glad you pointed out which I think only maybe one other person I've heard actually point out that specific line they will hear " that's trauma in your DNA causing what we see today" but no one speaks on the last part which is " I pray that you're staying strong, don't want to see no man in pain". I think with any reaction videos, people are looking for just that a reaction, so they pick obviously the more controversial songs which it's fine because obviously he wants those messages heard, but it really makes my heart hpppy when people can see Tom in that light of having compassion an empathy for others, I will say this again and again I think time is a very empathetic person, I truly believe and I've listened to every single CD he's put out I own them all, today's empath we are affected by the world around us more so than people who aren't because we can feel all that negative energy and angst, and it leads us to finding coping mechanisms aren't healthy like drugs and alcohol because it's the only thing that block those feelings. I don't know if you take requests for song reaction but if you do I request these if not I still think you should check them out on your own if you haven't seen him yet I tell everybody to check them out who does Tom reactions. There are two that I think are just super telling about Tom's character and who he is as a person. The first one is his spoken word NOT ALONE the second is his song HANGMAN. Not alone is his spoken word that I just can't imagine how anyone would not like Tom after they see that, hangman's a little harder to watch I think it does show his ability but it's a little more dark because during his initial relapse after he got sober, but the reason I say that song is because well I think in that song how the outside world affects him. Anyways amazing reaction as always.

[@AlenahRose11]

To any one reading this sorry for the parts that don't make sense I used speech to text t and didn't go back through before I posted, I promise I don't write like that lol

[@johnhaas9984]

New subscriber here. I'm so glad I found this channel!! I watch a lot of reaction channels, and, imo, this is the best one thus far. Black Pegasus and his guests go much deeper into what the lyricist is actually trying to say, giving a better understanding of the point of the song. Tom McDonald's songs have a much deeper meaning that what's on the surface. Thanks BP for taking a shovel to the song and going deeper than just the outer layers of the song. Much respect from NC.

​@cappyjpadgett That's FACT! I was born in the early 70's & we were all good & saw each other as just people that were defined by their character, not their color.

What lies beyond & within our outer shell is what’s important, what matters & where our purpose lies. Be kind, embrace our diversity & uniqueness, breathe this in and out every day & keep hope alive in your heart for a better future of healing & acceptance ahead for our generations to come. They’ve enough rot to deal with in this world without the simple “hue” they were born with being the deciding factor of their worth and potential. Love to all ❤️
