Tom MacDonald - "Dear Rappers" REACTION!!

[@JohnGatesIII]

Tom actually talks about writing this song......He had less than $10.00 to his name, was about to be evicted, no food. He had a half of cigarette left in his pack. He went out onto his front porch to smoke it, and wrote this song. He went back inside, excited, and told Nova that he thought he wrote THE song to change everything. That night they set everything up and recorded it. He sent it to his best friend Evan, and asked him to listen to it. Evan agreed it was really good. Tom and Nova then taped this video. He borrowed money from Evan, another Friend in Canada, his Sister, and this dude he found on the internet that was a low level 'Investor". He took all $1200 and invested it into promoting this song and it blew up. The REST, as they say, is HISTORY.

[@100proamerica]

Wow! Thank you for taking the time to share. I've only been listening to him nearly 2 months not (currently 07 March, 2021), and I've gotten bits and pieces from everything I've seen and heard but not too this extent. Much appreciated #HOGFam for life

[@Virolock]

Ok I've been listening to Tom for a while, but damn this is heavy...I need to sort myself out

[@JesusFriedChrist]

*$1,100

[@JesusFriedChrist]

And he put that $1,100 all into Facebook advertising to promote the song, and within a day or two it got a million views on Facebook. That was the summer of 2017. When I found his KZbin in early 2018, Dear Rappers was at like a hundred thousand views at most. Man’s blown up from 50k subs in May of that year, to almost two million a couple months shy of three years later. And the thing is, I totally saw it back then. I distinctly remember saying “Wow, he’s definitely going to go big. Won’t be long till he has a million subs.” boyyyyyyy did he fucking blow all my expectations out of the water.....Beating out Cardi B and Eminem’s entire new album for number spots??? It would be unbelievable if it were for anyone other than Tom.

[@richknapp3500]

Made me cry!

[@harrytaylor6494]

Unite not divide is his message, trying to show different points of views from both sides so people can critically think as individuals versus group tribal think that gets us no where!

[@LadyMystie]

Hey guys! This was the first song that went viral for Tom. I started with him back then so I'm an old #HOGfam. Great idea to start at the beginning!! 😎

[@NathanCline12-21]

I love starting at the beginning again.. Well the unofficial beginning...

[@unapologeticallyamerican307]

[@brianbrussard2750]

Love watching people go down the rabbit hole. HOGFamily🤘

[@neilfinicum1362]

Good reaction guys! #hangovergang

[@JesusFriedChrist]

I just want to say that you’re the first channel I’ve seen do the experience that is Tom MacDonald properly. No disrespect to them, but everyone else out there is doing it wrong, starting from his latest stuff and working their way backwards. Nah man. Naaah man. I said NAHHH man, you _can’t_ do it that way. You have to experience Tom how the we, og hangover gang, experienced it. You have to put yourself in our shoes, and see if you see in Tom what we saw in Tom back in the day. See if you can watch the same videos we saw and think “this man will have millions of subscribers in a few years” like we thought. I had no idea what was in store for Tom when I found him in early 2018, but I knew it was going to be great. I hope these early videos give you guys the same feeling of excitement for Tom’s future, and I also hope you guys enjoy experiencing what the journey has been like for all of us over the last few years. It’s truly been incredible, he both met and then exceeded all my expectations.

[@11bearcub]

Love you new to the HOG army! Tom has been legit since he was born. I’m glad you joining the Tom experience!!

[@letitbe7108]

I'm loving the journey we're on now. #HOG for life

[@jamesbarlow2759]

#HOG 4 LIFE . Loved the reaction!

[@Amaranthos2]

Challenge accepted xD Also I dunno if YT is just being YT again or not, but I saw this Dear Rappers reaction on both my homepage and notifications, but the Whiteboy react showed up on neither one

[@Jamesbout83]

The story goes he was living in South Central LA and was down to his last smoke. He went out had had smoke and wrote this song. Went inside and got Nova to record the video and post it and that was that.

[@sullivan7401]

The majority of the world all feels the same! We aren't divided like [they] say. Entertainment industry, MSM & the Elites are the reason for the so called "division" we have. I love ALL OF GOD'S CHILDREN❤🥰

[@Mrr3V0Lution]

Great clip, thank you! 👊🏼

[@alanr1608]

All right since you decided to start at the beginning and I'm totally stoked that that is the way you chose to go I would move on to some of his earlier songs, sad rappers, Politically incorrect, exposure and white boy. I've been following him since this song came out and doing it the way you are doing you will get to see his growth and why we all are such loyal fans. You may not realize it yet but you are already becoming hangover gang. Welcome to the family

[@alanr1608]

Forgot to mention that I'm subscribing to watch your journey! Lol

[@asadams88]

Love the snack brother in the back 🤣❤️😽

[@ElainetheGARugrat8815]

Glad you heard this one first!! Everything going forward is awesome! Happy to go on this journey with you!! #HOG4LIFE

[@Step_America1st_AndWhat]

Respect to all ya'll but especially the gentleman on the left who defended women TWICE 😀 lol God bless you. Another great reaction guys, thanks and much love!! #HOG

[@xano2921]

Defended from what?

[@josephtingley654]

1 day and already 1.1k!

[@johnbiondo6706]

How you guys liking these metaphorical slaps? You have a whole lot more to get. I'm an old fart in the deep south and I'm very gratified to see your generation see past the indoctrination that's been imposed on you. People of all races, creeds, orientations, identities, ect., are all things,..good, bad, and indifferent. No group has a monopoly on moral or immoral behavior,..no group has an innocent past. The important thing is how will YOU behave in the future? People like you guys give us oldtimers hope that the future isn't lost. Good job,..I look forward to more from you.

[@SickGirlRocks]

Like it or loathe it Tom IS the truth

[@CaddyJim]

This is his first viral hit back in *2017*

[@sinnirr]

Here we go!!! Where it all started!!!

[@jasonjay6807]

I'm glad you took advice of the comments and are going in order. I wish you guys would dive a little deeper into a few of the bars. Whether you agree or disagree, Tom's music is meant to spark conversation. Obviously there's too many to break them all down. Anyways, keep up the good work.

[@stephanieturgeon818]

❤️

[@nurselorie2271]

There are earlier ones but this was the first BIG hit

[@JesusFriedChrist]

A few earlier ones, yeah. This was the one that started his road to success, and then Helluvit, White Boy, Politically Incorrect, and Everybody Hates Me cemented it.
