I’m going out on a limb here and guessing that you are new to Tom. All of the Hang Over Gang artists are amazing. I highly recommend exploring Novas music as well as that of Tom’s bestie, Brandon Hart. Tom has a wild back story. I apologize for this long post. Some of your comments reminded me so much of myself, I got comment diarrhea (gross symbolism, sorry). I only share this with you as I am impressed at how well you have your head screwed on right and I feel you will take to heart what is being said (I don’t share this info with just anybody). If any of my phrases seem weird, feel free to ask (I am a 62 year old Hispanic American - 2nd gen - and I sometimes use slang from when I was your age, a long, long time ago). ***Personal Opinion on Tom***: I think part of the anger Tom has towards the corporate music industry is due him buying into the message presented by rappers. He wound up depressed, messed up on alcohol and came close to suicide. He couldn’t pay his bills AND was evicted, living on the street until he went back and lived at his mom’s for 9 months, fully disconnected from the world, not even interacting with other humans. He finally made his way back and has nothing nice to say about the music industry labels or the message they push to the mainstream. He will not compromise and had no choice but to be truly independent. His music is also his therapy for the darkness of the depression and anxiety - that monster never goes away, I know because I’ve tried to kill the one lurking in my shadows. If you check out “Sober”, (kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmbOpWVtntmHarc ), you will get Tom’s story. He is an open book and knows that keeping it 💯 helps keep the monster locked down. His spoken word joints are also good for backstory. As you react to more of Tom’s tracks, you will see why there are 3 groups of people that listen to Tom’s tracks: 1. The haters. Never gonna change and the #hangovergang will always just wave🖕🏽🖕🏿🖕🏼 2. The people that feel the same way he does and like his message and that he holds the industry accountable: See “Blame The Rappers” ft DAX (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWGmdXurnrd2qMU). Group 3 includes me and many others - keeping it real af: 3. We are people that have done battle with our own demons, such as alcohol, drugs, other addictions and depression. Many of us have even been close to suicide but we kept hanging on (kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3XUfIuVocylh5I). We still fight our demons but we refuse to give them power over us. While Tom’s music is therapy for him, it’s also a source of strength for us. The thing that gives us the greatest power over the darkness is knowing we are not alone. That is why we are part of the #hangovergang, we will never be alone, there is strength in numbers (kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqa5gaGNZdhmjNE). Lastly, some things I’ve learned after flipping the bird to Death 3 times: *: Life is full of absurdity. When non-critical shit happens (I.e. bought the wrong car part or the car part breaks), treat is as an absurdity and laugh your ass off at it. That takes all the power away from absurdities. Things like dyslexia are also absurdities (I have it bad but joke about it because, well you know, it’s ABSURD!). *: Life is a grand adventure. And, just like any roller coaster, there are scary parts and there are the thrills. All you have to remember is to Hold On Tight and enjoy the ride. Substances like alcohol and drugs don’t enhance the adventure, they will however, muddy the experience. *: You are not alone. No matter what struggles or challenges you may face, others have been there. There is no shame in the struggle, it’s what makes us stronger, like lifting weights. As we lift more, we get stronger but, there is a time when every weight lifter takes on a little more than they can safely handle and the ask someone to be a spotter, just in case. The only shame in life is when we are trying to “lift” more than we are able, to not seek help from a spotter. There are lots of people who are willing to serve as a “spotter” when asked. #hangovergang forever - for life 🤟🏽🤟🏼🤟🏿

Wow! Thank you for taking your time to write this great message! It means a lot to me, and I agree with all your points. I've been through ups and downs, and still will in the future I'm sure, but music like this, gym, friends, and especially God will help me get through it all. I'm often a very bright person, but there's never one person who will never have their lows. I hope you know your comment is very inspiring and motivational too, and so you earned a pin on my video! Thank you for your support, and God bless your soul. 🙏🏻🤍🫂

[@Swearengen1980]

His actual point was addressing Biden and the left specifically saying that the 2A was meant for hunting, as well as Biden's stupid statement of, "A citizen doesn't need an assault rifle, what's an AR-15 going to do against an F-16". The 2A wasn't about self defense or criminals, either. It was meant for the people to always be as equally armed as the government to keep them in check and prevent tyranny, the Founders were quite explicit about this.

Great reaction! - Song was a banger! and that beat drop goes dumb. Cadences/flows🥶 and that hook is soooo good too💪 "American Flags" is an Anthem. Big props to Nova (Toms girlfriend)who just did that amazing video📹. Lastly, as far as firearms goes "I'd rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it" or "when the police are minutes away, the bad guys are usually only seconds away" Thanks🙏 #HangOverGang

[@vanessamind]

Thank you for your comment! I agree with everything you said. Your support is much appreciated!

[@Wright0101]

[@biohazardsperm]

Toms songs do vary from social to personal topics. Some really pull at emotions deep down. He is not just a rapper either. Take the time to listen to more even if you don't do a reaction to it. Many in the #HOG have reasons for Toms music helping lift them up in dark times and give them hope and strength that they can survive what they are going threw. Tom is in simple terms a pure Artist without any industry strings holding him back or controlling him. And don't think reactions to his older songs wont bring some views lol .#HOG love seeing people react and really get to understand tom and his music . Best wishes and thank you for a fun reaction.

[@vanessamind]

I agree!! Will definitely keep listening to his music. Thanks for taking the time to write your comment!! Thanks for your support, Bless you. 🤍🤍

I believe it was Thomas Jefferson that said “ When tyranny becomes law, rebellion is inevitable.” That is why we have the second amendment.

[@vanessamind]

Yup! Amen!

My favorite non political Tom song is "I hate hip hop" and my fave political song he made was "the system" he's a really great artist you should keep checking out his stuff, even a bit older stuff from the last few years

Just watched both of your Tom AND Acal reactions. I really enjoyed both of them. I gotta say I'm really disappointed in the lack of respect/recognition for Acal from ppl in the comments so far. PLEASE check out the Acal rabbit hole. "Ramble On", "Racism", "Clean Money" and "Klonopin" would be a great start and "Stay Down" would introduce you to a couple more amazing artists!
