[ THE NF JOURNEY ] RETRO QUIN REACTS TO NF | NF "NATE" (REACTION)

[@droogs5310]

I can’t wait to see your channel take off.. you are amazing and so real and down to earth. I’m glad I’ll be here to see the explosion.. I can feel it coming ❤️🔥

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate that so much and thanks for continuing to support. In due time ❤️❤️❤️

[@TananJess]

I'll send you a link for some of the old NF songs

[@HunterChadd-p1r]

AMEN 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@RetroQuinReacts]

[@HunterChadd-p1r]

AMEN!!!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I believe NF wrote that song from when he was in therapy. Maybe an exercise in therapy to say what you would like to tell your younger self. It's like the first verse was him taking to himself as a child, verse 2 was his teenage self, then the last verse his adult self.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

That very well could be the case. He done a great job with the timeline throughout the song

[@TananJess]

From reading alot of the books and the thought process of how to take your thoughts back pin point moments that you realized that you started experiencing stuff and 6 was the age that was the point where he would start to coach himself and catch before 12 or 13 when started to get into trouble.

[@sandrabenabe]

@ianhoffmann2179, you're right. After his perception tour, he went to a therapy camp or therapy getaway thing, and this was an exercise that they did. Of course, NF being the brilliant artist that he is, he turned it into another amazing song. He talked about it on an interview that he did.

[@HunterChadd-p1r]

Praise the lord 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@RetroQuinReacts]

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@HunterChadd-p1r]

I'm telling the real talk in my life!!!

[@scottralitz42]

This is therapy... Have a talk with your younger self. Befriend yourself. Had a lot of trauma as a child & didn't realize how much I was disgusted in my younger self, until I did this. Self-destructive thoughts haunted me in later life!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Much love ❤️❤️🙏🏾

[@Huckleberryheretic]

His parents separated "Mom and dad are not together, they took different routes." When it was mom's turn to pick up nate, she'd hide her boyfriend in the trunk because he was a shady dude. Once she picked up nate, she'd drive a ways down the road, pull over and pop the trunk so the boyfriend could get out. She did that so noone saw her shady boyfriend which would've prompted nate's dad to not allow her to see nate. Great reaction!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Thank u so much and I appreciate u for detailing all of that. It answered a lot of questions I had

[@juliehamel8225]

NF Real Music 🎶 🎵

[@RetroQuinReacts]

The realest music out ❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@ThisIsSB44]

Everyone talks about "Wisdom comes with age" I'm a firm believer that wisdom comes with experience. Some people have a lot more experience with things at a young age than others. Nate is in his 20s for all these albums and all these gems that he drops.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate u so much for saying this. U are absolutely spot on wit that one 🙏🏾

[@SpeedCuber2016]

6:14 Man, I can’t wait for you to get to “Let em Pray” on his newest album!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

For sure. I’m definitely ready to get to some stuff from his new album.

[@75jamesd]

If/when you listen to trauma, keep in mind the last line from this song. The track is young Nate talking to older Nate. This man has many layers 😊

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Thanks so much for updating me on that. I’ll try to remember that whn I get to that song

[@OUTCAST4LIFE]

This 1 is still hard for me to listen to... I mean imagine being able to go back and tell your younger self about your life experiences and things you're going to go through but how they're going to shape you...👊🎈

[@RetroQuinReacts]

For sure. It’s a tough one, but definitely a great one

[@rileylefler6458]

Mannn this one a gem 💎

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Absolutely! These ones like this hit different

[@Irmelinis]

Such a good song, nice reaction too! 🤩

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate that 😊

[@taylorsettle2544]

Yessir I always heard, “people around you love to see you do well till you start doing better than them”

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Most definitely!

[@i_can_c_u_2295]

I think the last line is very true. The simple question „what or who would I like to become?“ gives you a lot of motivation and a direction. A friend of mine quit smoking with this method and began as a teacher.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

That’s a very powerful line and that’s awesome!

[@calebrutter484]

NF has a lyric on his new album about praying on your downfall.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Fasho. I’ll have to try to remember that once I get to it

[@lmfw9789]

I'm excited for this one!!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Yessirrrrrr!!

[@jessekintigos4290]

Great reaction. You nailed it!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate that so much ❤️

[@TananJess]

It's seriously premonition like or atleast a gut feeling that it's almost a movement in therapy that evolves and has unlimited reach by using the internet for what the initial intent was for it to be used

[@markb4021]

Preach it RQ!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Fashooooo 💪🏾💪🏾

[@FANGSWRLD]

I think Nate had either admitted himself into a Psych Ward or visited a psych ward (or it was during therapy) that he got asked if he were to write a letter to his younger self, what would he say and what advice would he give? I’ve seen plenty of people have this theory on bigger channels- and the background noise in the very beginning of the song kinda goes on to solidify this in a way- So if you think about it- this entire song IS a letter to his younger self (obviously) There’s a double at the very end “That’s why I’m always looking down on you, I know it hurts” because he has to show sympathy but ALSO because younger nate is obviously shorter than current Nate so he has to “look down” At him

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate u for sharing this perspective. It makes me look at this song in a completely different way now

[@TananJess]

Self therapy and started reading into psychology and learning alot about mental health, Eminem was in one for awhile after his OD that almost killed him.

[@TananJess]

The snakes you should be terrified of aren't the one's that slither...it's the ones that have their hand on your back and call you either bro or babe and you don't realize how potent their "VENOM" is.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

True story!

[@TananJess]

Our own conscious where fear is born.

[@martynelson3013]

🩸🗝😎 Great reaction man!

[@RetroQuinReacts]

[@codyhorton2923]

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Yessuhhhh 💪🏾💪🏾

[@NF4Life]

❤

[@RetroQuinReacts]

❤️❤️❤️

[@TananJess]

Alot of similarities with Dax, in the abyss saying he was 6 when the devil told me watch my step.

[@TananJess]

Keep looking forward brother and don't give yourself a ceiling because that's setting yourself up for settling and just being okay with being okay, you're doing great already don't limit yourself and stay on your grind too.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Thank u so much bro 🤝🏾

[@MCP920]

Wisdom.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

Perfect way to sum it up in one word ❤️🙏🏾

[@matthewdavis418]

elite reaction brother

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate that 🙏🏾

[@rileylefler6458]

I think dad left mom from addiction , and she was always hanging with shady people and dad didn’t want the kids around that so he would get custody from her again or something haha that’s my take on it

[@RetroQuinReacts]

I appreciate that take. That’s what I was thinking too. Maybe someone else will confirm with more details

[@kevantatum8724]

One of those boyfriends abused Nate. So I would agree when you said it’s a type of guy.

[@RetroQuinReacts]

For sure. Thanks for clarifying that

[@cbs5742]

[@74900kdw]

No you don't have to stop at every bar. It's self explanatory ...... We can all keep up with it and catch all the bars.
