NF - How Could You Leave Us? - Reaction - Pure art!

[@RichWillBike]

This song gets me everytime .... I went to rehab 2 days after my son was born , battled to turn my life around so my children would have the father I never did. drugs affect so many more people then just the user . I first herd this song at a year clean and all I could picture was this song from my children's perspective. My father wasn't around because of drugs , ive been clean for 5 years now .

[@larryshair]

So glad to hear about your 5th year!

[@RichWillBike]

Thank you @larryshair

[@THEPEANUTGALLERY__]

I truly love you🖤

[@chasingcloudsandflavorrevi9817]

@runnin_rich26 I have been sober since February 2016 and a year later my girlfriend was pregnant with our first child. 8 years of running in circles and wishing I would die and now my beautiful little girl reminds me of how glad I am the wish for death didn't come true. This song is heartbreaking and I'm glad no one has to sing it for me.

[@robincraig5006]

Congrats on staying the course on your addiction!

[@BoydOfPray]

I always say that NF is, by definition, the MOST explicit artist without being explicit. What I mean is he is just pure, raw, unfiltered, in your face, brutally honest. Loving these genuine reactions man.

[@theamazingcj2748]

Every NF song for the past 6 or 7 years has been its own piece of art. Phenomenal

[@ImaCatMaia]

Everybody left him in the studio alone and he just sat and talked to her and that's what they put in the last part. He has said in more recent interviews that he has more grace and understanding for her now, and the pain that she must have been dealing with. She quit for a short time after she heard his music, but then relapsed and that's when she overdosed. That's the most common time because your tolerance goes down but if you relapse you tend to take the same dose that you did before and your body can't handle it. His wife just gave birth to their firstborn, a son named Beckham John Feuerstein (pronounced "FIRE-stine"), in August. I have a great idea for your Days of Christmas! Nate co-produces all of his beats with his best friend Tommee Profitt, who has many accolades to his name. He's done movies, commercials, video games, etc. Last year he put out what he called a Cinematic Christmas album and it is really beautiful! Here is a link to that playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PL3GYT8iGZtTU5Gyzw1bvn_AXqso605myc

[@hideoutproductions909]

3 years ago my girlfriend since almost 7 years died from an overdose of pills. Left both me & her at the time 18 year old daughter behind. This song hit me so hard on so many levels... Love it & hate it at the same time!!

[@bojanalukic8515]

The most positive thing is that he turned everything that happened to him into a song. It takes courage, strength and struggle.

[@AK00777]

P.S. NF is married and became a father earlier this year ♥️♥️

[@GeordieBoy700]

You introduced NF to me. This is first time i heard this. I'm in tears.

[@larryshair]

Tough song to listen to for sure!

[@karacook7417]

This song hits me so hard. This is my whole life not with just one but both of my parents

[@larryshair]

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine.

[@jenlambert1259]

The pain gets worse the older you get.

[@dimetryp369]

I bawl every time with this one...gotta give extreme respect to any artist that is willing to record their most deep, darkest pain and put it out to the world...it's why and how he is able to reach and help so many

[@morgangaskin3072]

I cry every time I hear this song because I relate to it so much. Like a lot of others do. My mom is still alive but has always been a drug addict who left us waiting, looking out the window for her our whole life. Even to this day. I’ll always have so much respect & love for NF. He’s special & different. This was such a great reaction! Thank you for being vulnerable and honest with your viewers 💛

[@larryshair]

Thanks Morgan!

[@jameswalters2182]

the line "I've got a picture in my room and it kills me cause I don't need a picture of my mom i need the real thing" whilst not about my mom, always gets me cause I have a picture of my dog on my desk, and after losing him I just feel lost, I grew up with just my mom who worked 80 hour weeks just to make sure I wasn't needing for anything and while I know why she did it, what I needed was her, my dog was the constant in that, moving countries 4 times, losing my friends over and over again, he was the only thing that stayed the same while my life was turbulent and after losing him, I have lost that. I'm lost in a sea of unknown situations and uncomfortable times, and the one thing I need more than ever is my rock. I know its dumb, but I just miss my dog man, he was my brother, my family, everything. and it feels like a part of me can never heal from losing him.

[@pwnzerblah22]

Please listen to NF - "If you want love" I've listened to all of NF's songs and this one, by far, transported me to some of my deepest feelings. Also, goosebumps.

[@martisartis4940]

Yesss this one

[@nope6770]

Buckle up for the ride NF is gonna take you on. He is a lyrical genius and each song is a story of his life, feelings and thoughts.

[@beexiong9047]

NF is one of my favorite artists these days. He so talented.

[@johncombes9606]

Lost my dad to overdose just last year he was only 49. Heroin is a horrible drug. Miss you so much Pop 😩😞

[@TrenchKen]

This song will bring anyone to theirs knees a lot of us have struggled with abandonment in the world and this song just takes someone who doesn’t know how it feels there and that’s impressive it’s an amazing song

[@gable354]

He touches almost everyone, his songs hit so many people. He connects with fans.

[@sweetkeat5806]

I’ve listened to many NF reactions and it never has gotten old watching someone react to him for the first time. I thoroughly enjoyed your two reactions so far. Would love to see more!!! I definitely recommend you listen to: Mansion, NF, Lost, and so many more!

[@larryshair]

You can definitely count on it. Once we get past Christmas as I have a Christmas-themed lineup for December, we'll dive deeper into this incredible guy.

[@jimmymcquade16]

NF became my favorite artist really quick after starting the journey. I'm a 50yr old country boy my daughter made me listen to his music and I was instantly impressed he so relatable and I love the real music idea

[@peggysoutherland1183]

He is willing to share his pain to bring comfort to others.

[@kimberlythompson5383]

He just had his first baby, too. As soon as they told us the news my first thought was him saying that his Mom wouldn’t be there for that. 🥺

[@MrZKR2391]

I watch NF preform this live at the Norva in Norfolk VA. And u could feel his pain. It was SOO palpable

[@ChrisPowell7]

“Oh Lord” is another good one by NF

[@birdfire0011]

this gives me goosebumps every time I hear it my father (may he rest in peace) when I was around 10 years old was heavy into alcohol woke me and my brothers up drunk and gave us a stern talking to. while he was talking to us in the middle of the night at some point he had grabbed his 22 Rifle and put the barrel of the gun in his mouth my brothers and I got him to take it out and it wasn't long after that incident that we were taken from him and he went somewhere to get sobered up my father had 7 years going on 8 of sobriety before he passed from sepsis after an accident he was in, in 2004 , but what happened that night has stuck with me

[@larryshair]

Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry that you had to experience something like that.

[@birdfire0011]

@@larryshair I'm ok with it now, but that was easily the scariest moment in my life thus far, plus after he sobered up he was always keeping tabs on my brothers and me when he did and didn't have custody of us (a story for another day :D ),.

[@dalewhiting2895]

The Search…….🎶 Thanks

[@Fairygrl_TW]

Amazing, heartbreaking song...NF is a Phenomenal Artist...Thank you

[@patriciajohnson9654]

You are truly 'real'. Appreciate you and your words.

[@kelseyhibbard6454]

Omg I knew this would get me. I knew this song for a while and my sister died of overdose and my niece and nephew were in 4th and 5th grade and were going through it and she(my niece) told me this was her song and now I can't really hear it without crying. Its been about a year things are getting better but all the loss we've had in a short time gas been way too much

[@larryshair]

I am so very sorry. This kind of comment breaks my heart. Blessings to you my dear friend.

[@andy20242]

Many people will recommend going on the NF Journey. These are songs from his albums that connect in some way (lyrically or visually). It’s an unfolding of his story as he lets you into his life. Most will say to do the entire Search album when you get to it. So, if you want, follow this list, and you’ll be well on your way. Songs from the Mansion album: - Intro (video) - Mansion - All I Have (video) - Wake Up (video) - Note Pad (video) Songs from the Therapy Session album: - Intro 2 (video) - Therapy Session (video) - I Just Wanna Know (video) - How Could You Leave Us (video) - Real (video) - Oh Lord - Grindin’ ft. Marty (video) Single between albums: - Warm Up (video, it’s a subtle visual and hard to see, but his arm tattoo at the end is a piece of the puzzle for the end of a later video) Songs from the Perception album: - Outro (video - yes, this is first) - Intro 3 (remember the song Mansion) - Outcast (video) - Green Lights (video) - Let You Down (video) Single between albums: - No Name (video) - Why (video) Songs from The Search album: - The Search (video) - Leave Me Alone (video) - Change - My Stress - Nate - Time (video) - Returns - When I Grow Up (video) - Only - Let Me Go - Interlude (do with Hate Myself) - Hate Myself (do with Interlude) - I Miss the Days - No Excuses - Like This - Options - Why (you would have already done this) - Thinking - Trauma The entire Search album will lead to a negative article from Rolling Stone which leads to the next single: - Paid My Dues (video) You can do Clouds the Mixtape, if you’d like. There is for sure one song that belongs on the journey (besides Paid My Dues mentioned above): - Lost (video) I hope this helps!

[@martynelson3013]

Powerful reaction. This song gets me everytime. Thanks for jumping on the NF Journey!

[@kingkeesietv]

I used to think people who cried to this song we're too emotional.. now that my father is gone all I can do is skip this song when it plays. Ignorance really is bliss.

[@grimathy90]

This song always gets me just from hearing the pain in his voice

[@fifiladu2659]

What a tender-hearted reaction. ♥️

[@Theunknowndadgamer]

NF truly has an astounding way with words, the raw emotion is just exactly that, raw

[@peachykeen2921]

I have watched and listened to that song so many times and it gets me everytime. His heartbreak. Every parent who takes drugs needs to see this song to hear the impact it has on children. I'm so glad in my drug days I didn't have children that I could have hurt.

[@adamlancaster77]

One Of The Best Songs Ever Made, Nate Is A Special Writer And Teller, He Makes Me Cry All The Time, Do People Realise He Never Swears In His Songs?

[@philsilverthorn]

At the beginning of the year I hadn't heard of either Aurora or NF but they are now two artists whose songs touch me very deeply. I have never been into rap but I discovered NF after listening to Harry Mack freestyles ( very different vibes but amazing to watch). NF's music transcends the genre for me and at the same time gives me a greater appreciation of rap than I'd had before. One of the finds of the year for me.

[@jsw227]

Subbed for the NF reactions. Having intelligence behind a reaction is a breath of fresh air. Having wisdom when analyzing NF's music critical. Having both and appreciating this is someone's life in music form makes for outstanding reaction content.

[@larryshair]

Thanks again, JSW!! Be watching for more after we get past the Christmas content this month :)

[@Kdubb815]

NF is one of the greatest arts to take difficult topics or emotions that society ignores like mental health and well being and gives his experiences, thoughts and prayers through the lens of a man walking in faith and authenticity. His music is therapy for me as I’m a man in my mid 30’s who often feels very isolated even amongst my fellow Christians. I haven’t dealt with any drug use myself or with family but I feel NF’s lyrics and the expression of pain and sorrow in such a visceral way in his writing. Apparently, that last part he kicked everyone out of the studio and was simply crying and talking to his mom, releasing that pain out as well as some anger for sure too. I do know that he has grown from this song and doesn’t view his mom in the same way with the anger but sorrow leaves us with the choice of forgiveness or bitterness and that’s sometimes more of a messy road than we’d like to admit. I admire Nate’s honesty and relate to his blunt expressions of where he’s at in life as his music is a diary of how he feels and what he’s going through. God has used his music to speak life into people like me and others, it’s definitely encouraging to know that someone else goes through moments of life grieving or in deep sorrow, there’s often more comfort in that kind of company and it’s allowed me to really value and acknowledge my own pain as well as seeing Jesus in a way that allows me to not only share in His joys but also His sorrows. I believe it’s helped me become someone who views others with a great deal of empathy because my desire is that everyone would know that they’re not alone in what they’re going through and people love them and can direct them to a God that will heal but to get there requires being true to yourself and being authentic in whatever your life is like in the present. Sorry for my long comment, I just really appreciate and love seeing people experience NF’s music because I know how powerful it is. Your reaction was really great and I think the more you listen to his other songs, the more you’ll see the impact he has and continues to grow inside the hip hop industry that is dying for something that’s meaningful in the overarching message that industry tends to lean toward. NF is in his own lane but his convictions to be himself added with incredible production and his talents and hard work are breaking down walls to conversations and emotions that we should talk about more because we’re all human and not meant to live life alone. I’m excited to see more reactions from you channel and hello also from Orange County, I saw in your reaction to Story that you’re living around here too. God bless you and your family sir and thanks for posting a genuinely interesting reaction. This is great content.

[@larryshair]

Hey Kdubb, thank you so very much for your comments. I’m sorry to hear about your experience with her some questions don’t engage with you. Your thoughtful comments really resonate with me. If you ever need to talk, chat me up. I also attend Calvary chapel of Fullerton. You can look it up and it be great to meet you. Currently, I’m dealing with Covid and I’ll most likely be out of church for the next several weeks, so there’s that. Blessings to you my brother!

[@jaredbrooks3676]

You are seriously my favorite reactor. So under rated. As soon as I found your channel I have been so happy to watch your REAL emotion and response. Thank you for exposing yourself like this, it's inspiring.

[@larryshair]

Jared, thank you so much for your kind words. This has been my pleasure and totally my honor that people like you enjoy this old dude listening to music. You inspire me, to be frankly honest. Thank you brother. Blessings.

[@tinaamariee832]

This song still gets me everytime. I’m proud to say my mother has 35 years sober, I’m only 30. So I never experienced her addiction, but as a single mother I was at ever single NA meeting. This song breaks my heart for Nate but gives me such gratitude for my mom. This easily could’ve been my life had she not had the strength to overcome.

[@Juantobiasarango]

Great reaction! Another great musical video from NF is “let you down” 196 million views or so.

[@hugodesiderio2367]

Every time I listen to this song it reminds me of my friend that passed in January 2021. He died from alcohol and had 2 boys younger than my kids. I just passed 2 years sober and when I think of picking up a drink I think of him and his boys, then my kids😔 I miss my brother and having dealt with alcohol, longer and in a higher capacity than he did, I’m GRATEFUL that I made the decison to stop. Great reaction by the way 😁

[@cbs5742]

So moving.

[@SaraPasquel]

New sub here. You got through his most emotional song at the beginning which is good. The rest of his catalog is smooth sailing if you continue. He is a genius story teller! Hope you check out Mansion next.

[@dennisr.4918DennyDesigns]

Yea these NF fans put Larry through the ringer with these first two songs. LOL

[@jonasmatthias4427]

Now he’s got to listen to therapy session to get through the 3 most intense songs

[@Matjo7588dk]

Some would claim Mansion is more emotional.. Guess it depends what type of demons you are locked up with.

[@PsclDragonBorn]

What I love about NF is the power in his voice. It‘s like he‘s directly shouting at his mom. It‘s so pure. He is amazing

[@britanyh99611]

I’ve heard this song 100x and I cry every time.

[@larryshair]

🧡

[@subject_changed4690]

This one really hits close to home. I am very grateful for for my mother.. she fought and won against her addictions. She's 7 years clean and i am proud of her.. thanks for reminding me to appreciate there even more.

[@risky7672]

And to think this song never got an award....

[@Zoneout98]

It’s crazy to think that he sat with that instrumental on and just cried and talked to himself on the mic for like 15 mins straight. And used to listen to this song by himself on his phone in his bathroom on repeat. 😞 NF is legit one of the most powerful lyricists without profanity that I’ve ever heard. 🤞

[@daniellereeder4943]

This song had SUCH a tremendous affect on me personally not only growing up with an IV Heroin addict mother & even now at 65 she's still injecting H & i hated & judged her SO harshly untillll....i got an injury which required multiple surgeries & that was when OC's where the craze; within a year & a half i myself became the 1 thing i SWORE i never would be-an IV H addict! Im now; BY THE GRACE OF GOD, Am about to he 11yrs clean but ill tell u now; DRUGS NEVER RELEASE THEIR GRIP ON U-PLEASSEEE DON'T LET EM IN!!! Thank u for ur reaction💯🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@avian9033]

It's incredible the amount of stuff I've been through and kept a strong face but this song just hits something within me every single time. I've never heard this song and not shed a tear.

[@chrism.keeling212]

You have no idea how much quality are in the lyricism of rap and metal. Barely even have to dig. Pure music comes from the soul. Nothing ugly from that.

[@thereseball]

You should definitely do "The Search" next!

[@gable354]

He does so many different things, styles and true artist!

[@bringpeace7547]

Genuine reaction... this song though... Went to bed one day about 5 years ago with KZbin music on. Woke up and this song was playing. 1st song I had heard by NF. Listened for a bit and tears started rolling down my cheeks. My brothers and I went through the same thing. Our Mom had drug and mental issues. As an adult now I can see more of my Mom's side and I wish she had a little more help and a little more strength. I love her regardless though and I miss her everyday. As a person who grew up in the Foster care system I can tell you it's a miserable time for every kid... Just to have the feeling in the back of your mind that you're not good enough to keep your parents around and thinking there's something wrong with you is a terrible feeling. Wouldn't wish that feeling on anyone. If anybody who reads this is going through drug addiction and/or mental issues, I believe in you... You can pull through... And to any kid going through the system just remember one thing... ITS NOT YOUR FAULT.... You are loved and as you grow older you'll become stronger and meet more people around you that will love you... I miss you Mom.. RIP

[@sparks418]

No matter how much I listen to this song I still can't get through it without tears the pain through his voice gets me every time but I think it's a song everyone should hear

[@lamonthendershot181]

You understand what Nate has been going through. Another song to understand him and a great song is MANSION.

[@carltoneod]

You are so freakin genuine in your responses. Can’t stop watching. Also very easy on the 👀 thank you for all the feels

[@larryshair]

Thanks so much!

[@lynnc5291]

Speaking as a grown woman..but once a hurt child, thank you to every parent that made the effort to get clean. Your babies will never have to wonder what was truly important to you. They’ll never have to question their worth. There’s so much deep trauma you took out of their story by making that effort.

[@emzie77]

[@adrianrobertson5139]

I had never heard of NF until today (metal head from Australia) just wanna say thank you, the tears streaming down my face are real and this song connects with me on a very raw level...NF is now on my play list...

[@larryshair]

You and me both, brother!

[@Tate6475]

Take the NF journey. Someone here will have the list. It's so worth it. It's like a positive rap audio story book of sorts filled with real emotion fear,anger,hurt, jealousy etc

[@lukeskif]

This hits very close to home.. as a younger brother, I have watched my older brother grow up as an addict to pills. And just recently lasted year, it has gotten super bad, him having severe highs/episodes causing him to run around the house cluelessly, seizures, etc.. and just remebering the night that it was just me and him and he had an episode and I try to do my best watching him about to die.. I’m just glad we were finally able to get him to agree to go a rehab center and he’s been doing better. I’m just hoping that he can get better.

[@thereseball]

BEAUTIFUL, "real" reaction. Thank you for this.

[@Ranik-Jason]

Glad you checked NF out! Great Reactions from you - enjoyed it alot. I would love so see a reaction to NF - Mansion, NF - Remember This or NF - All i have in the future somewhen - for me together with this song and the song "The Search" from him it made my picture of NF as one of the strongest lyricists of our time and a person with a real clear mindset of how things go with himself and the world we live in. His music helps tons of people to recognize their emotions, to get them into words, struggle and tactics to manage them and get going + get the hang of the idea that you are not alone with it and theres always a way to get back up again - if you keep on believing in something - for him - god.

[@Wickit96]

I am a grown ass man and a truck driver, this song gets me tearing up just from the beginning audio, never a dry eye at the end of this song. IDC what people say, even the strongest men cry, emotions are good for the soul and show you're alive 🤟🏽

[@makayla7227]

One of my all time favorite NF songs that is just a beautiful masterpiece is Mansion. The symbolism that he uses to showcase his struggles is unrivaled.

[@Aesthetics.by.kamie_pa]

Every word of this song cuts and allowing myself to feel it has actually helped me heal. I'm not so angry and bitter these days.

[@kiwiparfaits]

NF is so good but I can't listen to this song very often I tear up every time I hear it

[@musicmaker4him901]

If feel like there’s a softball in my throat every time I hear this.

[@meatmonki]

Please more NF, your my new favorite reaction channel, and NF is so deep. Will always be my favorite artist, he helped me through alot of dark times.

[@lucasdevore]

This song makes me cry everytime I listen to it. My early life was horrible. Filled with drugs. My parents were major drug addicts. My dad made and sold different types of drugs and my mom would take them. Doctors have said that there is a chance my mom was taking them when she was pregnant with me. That's why many medical personnel have told me to not try any type of drug that could be addicting such as pain relievers or even drugs such as marijuana. Because of the fact that I could easily become addicted to them. I have a huge fear of taking any kind of medicine or drug because I don't want to get addicted. It's a huge fear for me. Luckily I was taken out of that situation along with my sister and was adopted. I will never try any type of drug

[@larryshair]

Wow, sounds like we have similar backgrounds. Castle and Arose drops on the 25th and 26th. I tell a story on the 26th. Check it out. Blessings to you, my friend.

[@zadrikb]

My mom was a drug addict and still is even after my dad passed...so growing up she was really never there for me or my sisters...I love this song because I can relate to it so much

[@misner1989]

I lost my mom to her body shutting down with all the pills and booze she had a lot of pain in her heart and brain but also alot of love to give and was a good person who worked everyday till the end.. It's been two years. I still think of her every day ❤

[@larryshair]

It's such a huge loss. I think of my dad all the time.

[@purpleelephantdebh]

this is always hard to listen to. i have much respect for NF for being brave enough to share his story so that it can be a voice for others.

[@SuzansVibeVault]

NF is the most real ethnic rap artist out there. He does not curse or talk down on women. I took my 12 year old son to see him live in Philly. Was just so amazing, we have so much respect for this man.

[@Cyclops5.0]

This gets me everytime!

[@sovegodt]

This was my childhood, but with my dad.

[@finnestadj]

He said that this song came from a place of anger. He also said he wouldn’t write this song today because he has a level of grace for his mother that he didn’t have when he wrote is.

[@VIBE-Dpm93]

I went through this with my mom at 9 and it's killed me inside ever since. Not a day goes by where I don't think about the call I got that day. It's been 19 years and feels like it was yesterday. This song is amazing but really crushed my heart when I first heard it. Me and my brothers only have our memories of her now and sometimes that just doesn't feel like enough. I love you mom.

[@jabsluna]

Didn't think I could ever watch this one again, but I wanted to see your reaction to NF. Beautiful as always. He's a rapper, but he can sing too. He has a beautifully sad song, "Trauma" that I thnk you would appreciate. I have a feeling you will be doing more NF reactions...at least I hope so :) "Mansion" is a great song too. Everything he does is insanely good, and rooted in his childhood.

[@seriouslymason]

Amazing reaction and breakdown. I loved every minute of it. If you do NF again. I highly recommend you do “the search”. That’s a beyond clever song that instantly got me into his music.

[@DJMAERZ]

Feels less like Im seeing your reaction and more like Im just sitting and listening to music with a friend.

[@waddyblaze]

Most human reaction to this song. Even if you have never been through it, you can feel it.

[@gr8tfulgirl578]

Another great reaction. As always. Another song of NF's to consider is If You Want Love. Great story. Great message. Stay genuine.

[@mollieoglesby8935]

Great reaction, NF makes you feel it right in the heart.

[@larryshair]

Well-said!

[@afroman773]

Thank you for doing this. Its amazing to have an older point of view from something that hits so close to home. I appreciate you for helping open my eyes to what has happened in the past. This song was always in my playlists, but it never clicked until watching this. Thank you again.

[@larryshair]

Thanks Michael!

[@ardianblakaj]

I dont believe there is a single human that can listen to this song and not get touched in some shape or form even if you life is perfectly happy and good

[@larryshair]

Agreed!!!

[@glenngodecky4555]

In the last part you actually here NF cry. In the studio, while recording he couldnt keep it together and they decited to put it in the song.

[@kingbambam4523]

Man, I'm very happy to find your channel you do a great job. Growing up in a broken household this song gets me teary eyed every time I hear it. I'm glad you're enjoying NF's music it means a lot to a lot of us.

[@Śħẽĩłã]

Wow … okay I wasn’t even going to comment initially because, well, you (Chris) will probably never even see it … but by the end of this reaction I just couldn’t resist!!! I was looking for new reactions to NF (that’s what most of us do while we wait for new music and after new music drops - we love watching people discover this musical genius) anyhow, I found your reaction to Story and it was amazing!!! Thoroughly enjoyed it, so I decided to scroll through your videos to see if you checked out anything else and I see this one. At first I was thinking “this shouldn’t be the next one” … but as I watched I changed my opinion. This was perfect and your reaction was priceless!! Before I got through your entire reaction I paused a couple of times … 1. To see if you have reacted to anything else … and 2. To read through some comments real quick. I was disappointed with what I discovered for #1 … but pleasantly surprised with what I discovered for #2!!!!! You replied to a comment about having videos already planned for the next couple of weeks, but that after Christmas you would definitely be checking out more NF!!! I was so happy to read that!!! So I proceeded to finish watching this reaction, which was pure gold by the way (I couldn’t remember if I already told you how much I enjoyed your reaction) and when it was over you said a couple of things that, when I heard you say it, I knew you were locked in (and actually could have saved me some comment research 🤷‍♀️). The first thing you said … you called him “Nate” haha I literally laughed a little when I heard that. And that is perfectly fine that you called him by his name, as opposed to calling him NF!!!! It’s just that when reactor’s actually start calling him by his name, they are on board and understand the “realness” in Nate. So I was happy to hear that!!! Then you went on, just talking, and you mentioned that he has “layers” of depth!!! I almost dropped my phone!!!! Typically, reactors don’t start talking about him like that so soon, but the best part is going to be when you actually hear is song “Layers”!!!!!! So, to wrap up this mini novel, you have a new Sub 🙋‍♀️ and I cannot wait until after Christmas to see your next reaction to our guy!!!!!!! Welcome to the family!!!!! This is gonna be great!!!!! Oh, sorry, most people will tell you to start at the beginning … and that is really how you should take the Journey … but … you already started with a song from his latest release (which is fine) then a song off his 2nd album (which is also fine) so I’m gonna just throw my .02 cents in here … the reason for starting at the beginning is because Nate tells you his story through his music … and connects a lot of his songs and videos. In earlier songs he mentions things to come … and in some of his later songs he mentions things from past songs. He leaves little hints (or we like to call them Easter Eggs) in his videos … which are all more like movies (as you have already discovered). He is an incredibly talented young man and I honestly cannot wait to see more from you!!!! And, lastly, I am with the “older” group in this family … so don’t think that you wouldn’t fit in!!! We are all inclusive here!!! Haha This is gonna be fun!!!!! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!!! 💞 🖤🗝🛒☁️ P.S. - Albums: Mansion Therapy Session Perception The Search Clouds - The Mixtape I think you should take the Journey, but I truly believe that you would really enjoy songs that are not “on the list” … so my advice is just listen to each album in order. Yes, that’s a lot of songs … but I’m telling you, I just think you would get a better appreciation for his music by listening to everything 🤷‍♀️ … okay, I do believe I’ve said more than enough now 🤦‍♀️😂 See you on the next one!!! 🖤

Thanks so much, Sheila! I'm so glad you enjoyed the reaction! Yes, you can count on my diving head-long into "Nate's" content! I will have to balance his content out with other artists, but I am excited to hear more. I can't believe he was able to hook me on one song. Incredible. Not to mention, his song that I reacted to "How could you leave us"... Come on! How in the world has this incredible artist escaped me for this long? This is a lesson for me in prejudice. I've never really liked rap, and now I can't wait to hear more. The bummer is having to wait to hear more as I don't want to jump in without all of you included... So, needless to say, stay tuned for more! BTW, Eminem is on the roster... One of my reactions was just "unblocked" but has little traffic due to a glitch in KZbin. If you're came, you can find it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnjSpX-HbcRnaKs Have a wonderful day! BTW, I do try to read all comments but as the channel grows, my ability to reply to each one diminishes Just know that I'll be reading each one. You'll know it when I give the comment a thumbs up 😉

@@larryshair I totally understand about not being able to read and/or respond to every comment!!! I am honestly shocked that read and responded to mine!!! Thank you very much!!! I will definitely check out your Em video, while I am not really an Em fan, I am now a “larryshair” fan and anything I can do to help the algorithm, I’m there!!! BTW, Nate is a big ole Em fan … I mean what young man from Michigan isn’t a fan of Em 🤷‍♀️ he (Nate) never cusses in his music though!!! Okay, I’m off to watch your video!!!

I think you would also like his song's "Mansion" "Nate" and "Remember This" and I "Miss the days". I just turned 50 and I am a hugh fan of NF,I went to his concert with my adult children in October.

A dad left his addiction because of this song, he didn't want to make his son suffer like was shown in this song

[@jameseyman9078]

I strongly reccomend "Nate" its a song that he got the concept for from an activity he did while in therapy. It was an exercise in which he was to imagine he was taking to his younger self and what he would say to that little boy in hopes of helping to prepare him for the pain he will be expieriencing as he travels through this life

[@fishdaddyd9819]

Love your reactions. Not many people actually feel the words of a song anymore.
