Best reaction channel ever

[@st1lysh35]

he once said "I'm not a christian rapper, I'm a rapper that's christian" big words

[@justyourfriendlyneighborho943]

Some Christians took that as "Rap comes before God" but that's just stupid. All that he's saying is that he's a rapper and Christian separately.

[@geraldrullan4751]

@@justyourfriendlyneighborho943 i dont think that's what he meant entirely he's saying it shouldn't be a genre because it's like saying I'm a muslim rapper, yes the person is muslim but that doesn't make his songs just for muslim or about muslim or excludes other ethnicities, cultures and religions. It's for everybody. It's just he happens to be a Christian who raps like a plumber who is one he said u don't call them a "christian plumber". But because he is a Christian and that's an integral part of who he is. Not a fake one or pretender. He doesn't cuss 🤬, he talks about God in his life from time to time. Showing the hard part of Christianity meaning it doesn't mean it's sunshine and rainbows in here. We are really going to suffer on earth until we go whether or not ur christian. It's a part of life. But to us Christians who do believe and do our best to take up our crosses and follow Christ. We know it's worth it just like he raps in his song The Search. Jesus's life wasn't pretty but the end goal is the best there ever will be. That's what inspires me so much because he's real and he's character shows he really is trying in rap, life, and his insane struggles, even showing them off to help people as he mentions. And at the very least he helps me. As a fellow Christian who struggles with life and when life gets me pissed or a person does i sometimes let out a cuss which I shouldn't as a Christian but again we're not perfect. As he says again. What's insane to me is he's a rapper and he shows so much of his faith just by not cussing which is unbelievablly hard in rap not just the life alone. He the MVP. God bless him, hope he gets better mentally. And let him see Christ. And the holy spirit live in this dude. Cuz it like he has the holy wrath of god in him and music is his perfect outlet cuz to him its his medicine that god gave to him. Peace

[@geraldrullan4751]

Sorry for the long reply i just thought that needed to be explained. Hope u understood and got the references. Basically he even has a song called Oh Lord where he's talking to God and he saying it ain't exclusive to Christians it's for anyone listening or who needs to hear it.

[@justyourfriendlyneighborho943]

@@geraldrullan4751 Yeah, he makes music for everyone, not just Christians, that's the point I was trying to get across. I was saying that he doesn't have to rap about God to be a Christian, and he doesn't have to put rap before God to not rap about God.

[@geraldrullan4751]

@@justyourfriendlyneighborho943 yep same thing I'm saying he doesn't necessarily separate it because that's part of him. Clearer now i get it

Your breakdown of this song has got me crying. Holy crap. Right now I'm currently at this spot 7:55 The way you described why we cannot burn a room down that's filled with memories because we'd end up destroying ourselves completely. And that these memories mold us into who we are. I really needed this reaction. I am probably 100% sure you will not see this comment but I had to write this. I'm going through so much crap right now and the way you're breaking down this song is exactly what I needed

[@dusman7]

Dude, Earnest. I’ve never seen such an incredible breakdown of this song. Makes me proud to be part of the third family. The only people that match you in breakdowns are the dads of Scriptwork. Much props 👍

TheThirdErnest Gotta get All I have in there next as well as Wake Up before Therapy session. Right before or after Therapy session I would have you listen to Lost In The Moment, which is really similar in message.

[@maddielkaye]

I’ve listened to this song repeatedly over the past two years, I had a very similar childhood as Nate so I connect with all of it; somehow I never caught onto the panic room part. Wow. Thanks Ernest!

[@IN78927]

Also you’re the best reaction /breakdown channel I’ve checked out. You go down and breakdown everything which shows how serious you are

[@EnergeticxCheese]

Dude I’m glad that you’re getting recognition. I love the way you break down both the lyrics and the video (if there is one). I really hope you get to his song Therapy Session, it’s what got me into his music Edit: also love the reference to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I never hear anyone talk about that movie

that movie is in my top 10 for sure...possible top 5. and therapy session is def on the list people gave me so its happening man!

You're one of the few reactors to NF that I relisten to your reactions more than once. So here it is 2 years later and you're talking about hitting 10,000 subs. I checked your channel and you're almost to 200,000. Kind of surreal isn't it? This is really what you were meant to do sir

[@jfirebird5833]

@TheThirdErnest I've seen some reactions on youtube and especially on NF but your quick mental access to the music catalog you're familiar with, you're #perception (had to make an NF pun) to the lyrics and what's behind it - you're so on the the mark its like you're holding the sharpie. Respect

It actually helps with breaking down lyrics. Keep up the great work🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wow, I'm an even bigger fan now. Thanks for respecting the comment about cussing, and being humble enough to grant that request in such a gracious and real way. You could've so easily ignored it, or told him if he didn't like it don't listen, like so many other reactors. I'm sure you'll blow up even more because of that!

[@hkkyau]

You're a good dude for doing what you gotta do to let the kids get in on the hip hop artform. I'd argue that it's just as complex as the fine arts and deserves to be shown to future generations to provide them a new medium to help them understand other people, other perspectives and to build a sense of empathy for a life other than their own. I appreciate you doing your part and putting real artists into the spotlight. Great rap is making a huge comeback and we need someone to help break it down into bite size pieces to allow time for each of those songs to express themselves in a form that's easier to digest. Keep doin you boo

I am happy you are choosing to do this so I can share your reactions with them, nice to hear someone take the time and dive so deep into the lyrics.

I feel he express my feelings of anger and pain. Thank you for not cussing 🥴
