Just wanted to say, when it comes to mimicking the human tone/expression/pitch, there really are only two instruments in contention, the cello and the clarinet. Hence the use of cellos here is spot on, thats reflective of the grey noise of humans all around him (IMO)
Omg, yes, please!!! NF is the only rapper I listen to, because all of his music is so real and relatable. Here's a few of my suggestions: Mansion (first song of his I've ever heard) Therapy Session Nate When I Grow Up How Could You Leave Us? (arguably one of the saddest songs ever written; have tissues ready)
@@aristobrat4987 I am not sure if your comment is to me or to the original post. For me, it is called having a sense of humor. lol. Not everything in the world is dark and ominous. Millennials and Gen. Zers need to lighten up and have fun. I wish you a blessed and happy New Year!
You should definitely keep going on this NF journey. You'll find that his songs resonate with alot of people. What i like about NF even more is that he's not afraid of speaking about his faith 🙏
NF is very anti-drug addiction, as he lost his mom to drugs. Love that you watched and reacted to some of NF’s music, he is one my my all-time favorite artists. His music has been so meaningful to so many. 🎈🖤🎶🖤🎵🖤🎈
Exactly what I was about to say. I also believe it happens to show how he feels about other people. I feel like it kind of shows his perception of how he doesn't see these other people with the same amount of emotional and traumatic baggage. It shows the darkening of his purity as he makes his way through life.
Yeah, I found this on the balloons, "He has explained the image as representing the burdens hovering above him, free to fly away at any given moment, and the burdens that he lugs around, wandering in indecision with his cart." I like the way that's phrased.
@@JonO387 Have you listened to his music? He pours his experiences and struggles into his music. It helped to listen to someone who went through problems, to hear how he thought and know I wasn’t crazy for what I felt.
Dude same lol I’ve been a metal dude since I was 4 and I’m 20 now and I discovered NF around summer of 2021 or maybe slightly earlier. Now I am a huge fan of NF.
@@Carnage0708 I've only been to 3 concerts my whole life. One was Linkin Park and the other two are NF. I saw The Search and Clouds. He's so phenomenal live. His voice isn't using auto tune. Him and Joedan Peterson saved me from myself
Seen him in concert a long time ago before he was super known and they handed out black balloons at the end of the concert he yelled to let them go or pop them it was awesome. 😊
From Moments to Clouds, I have listened to every one of NFs songs on repeat. There’s a song for almost every emotion. His story is incredibly sad, yet he makes it beautiful and relatable. And, he raps/sings all clean lyrics, so I can share (in moderated doses) to my children. ❤️NF
One of only like 3 artists that I have listened to every single available song he has and have listened to his 5 main albums on repeat multiple times, truly don’t get bored of his music
Never heard of NF but this made me cry. Not only because of the deep and meaningful words but Michael's reaction and understanding of the obvious pain this man is working through. Music is supposed to make you feel something, this truly did.
Check his music out, a lot of its fantastic, and he really leans into using music as an out or a cure to his problems. The best part about that is when he releases another album, or doesn't you will truly know he will keep his word.
I love NF! A rare mainstream rapper that keeps his head above water and isn't succumbing to the world's temptations and lies! NF is also unashamed to speak about his faith in Christ and I absolutely love that!
I’ve been an avid NF fan since around 2016 now, so since I was nine. My parents were sorting through some very heavy issues in their marriage, and as a result I was very depressed and angry up until I was 13. NF was my way to cope, relate, everyday I’d listen to him, so I felt normal. I relied on his music completely, I learnt so much from him, and him being Christian and me being Catholic helped seal that, hearing all he’s went through whilst remaining faithful, gave me hope for my faith. I literally owe him my life, and now at 15, I still listen to him everyday, I know every word to every song. Thank you so much for acknowledging this awesome man! :)
“Got a taste of the fame, had to pump my stomach Throw it back up like I don't want it Wipe my face, clean up my vomit” Michael it’s not a drug reference, it is a referring to him finding the reality of fame and despising it, “had to pump my stomach” refers to him forcing himself to vomit the fame back up.
honestly... I appreciate that he misunderstood this line by so much. Michael seems very scripted when he talks about stuff so often in my opinion. Being so off base with that part of the assessment helped to make it feel more genuine.
At the beginning of the video, NF tells us what the balloons represent. Drug use is NOT a problem for NF. He does have a problem with being famous, not because of the fans, but because he's an introvert. He uses a lot of humor in his videos. I am a 70 year old woman. I don't like rap, never have. One of my daughters introduced NF to me about 3 years ago. You may also notice that NF doesn't cuss.
Yes, thank you for correcting that. The balloons represent his burdens. I also didn’t agree with Michael’s interpretation of the white and black clothes. I imagine the woman on the swing is his mother, obviously sleeping (RIP) on the swing, carrying her own burdens. He looks out and sees other people wearing the white clothes; he sees them differently than himself. He, wearing black, sees himself as “stained” and unforgiven. He sees himself in such a negative light, but to him, everyone else is “saved,” (hence they white clothes) but recognizes that they carry their own burdens as well. I think the main idea of this section of the music video is that he sees himself as different from everyone else, and he’s fighting to accept God’s love, in turn, loving himself. I pray for NF often; God gave me a burden for him and Bridget a long time ago. If you read this, pray for him too, that he finds peace in his soul, learns to love himself, and the God that made him 💜 he’s a beautiful soul. I thank God for his impact on the world.
The reference to pumping of the stomach and the white clothes at the end.. it's a suicide attempt and surviving, going into a mental facility. That's the obvious take, so maybe I'm wrong.
The balloons are his worries and negative thoughts. They go with him everywhere. They both hold him back and he feels insecure without them. He doesn't want them and feels he needs them at the same time because they've always been there unlike the people he was supposed to rely on in his childhood. Dude's music is pretty deeply human.
This is my 3rd listen and I’m learning even more, I don’t wanna compare him to Eminem, but it’s kind of like catching some of ems lyrics after a long time, but your absolutely right and I love artists that are able to take you on so many journeys that make you understand more and more each time,
The "pump my stomach" lines aren't a direct reference to drugs, but a metaphor for fame. It talks about how when he gained fame it began destroying him, and how he had to try to rid himself of it, like an addict trying to rid himself of drugs. In one of his more recent songs, 'clouds', he has some lines that make it clear he never got into drugs, and his mother died of an overdose, so the guy really doesn't seem like someone who'd do drugs.
NF’s old stuff (mansion/TS erra) has some great songs like “real” and “notepad.” It’s a different feel than this, more down to earth. And I think you would like that era as well
Nate (NF) is highly underrated. His lyrics hit close to my life and heart! He definitely wears his heart on his sleeve about his life, his struggles and his faith and relationship with Jesus. His music has helped me through a rough year, last year
NFs slogan is “real music” and it fits perfectly. He doesn’t whine, he just raps to put his thoughts and motivations out there. I respect his music a lot and part of it is because he doesn’t care if you like his music or not. I genuinely think he just does it because it’s what he likes to do. You can tell there’s real passion in his work if nothing else.
Along with all his skills he never curses once, he is just telling his story. All of his music is like this just from different points of view, the song trust is by far my favorite and it shows soooooo much talent.
As a conservative who struggles w mental health and emotional trauma... im genuinely surprised to see Knowles highlight NF on his channel, but also very delighted by it! NF is actually an incredibly honest human bring and great role model.
NF's music speaks to your soul. All the places that have been pierced or wounded inside can find a mirrored agony somewhere in his songs. He's relatable to all the broken masses out in this broken world. AND gives glory to God for his success. Yes, please do react more to this man's music. Take the NF journey with us!
I met Nate years ago at a concert. It was just him and his IPhone. I had a signed EP from him and we grew up like 45 miles away from each other! He’s incredibly kind and a really good dude!
As a Muslim guy that only really listen to classical music and never thought of listening to rap. NF is the only rapper that I respect because he dont rap about sex, drugs, and cursing every second but rather sings about many things that I can relate to on many levels. I also like seeing Michaels view on the balloons because I see his balloons as burdens that he can't let go of because of him being afraid that it would change him to a person he isn't. Btw great video Michael!
NF is amazing! The best part of his music is that is not silly or idiotic. The man talks about things that are hard and real in an impressive and artistic way. Mr. Knowles, I so much appreciate your review. Thank you
Oh my gosh, I about jumped out of my chair when I saw that you were reacting to NF. I discovered him about 2 years ago and he is my number one go-to artist. Give him a chance and you will quickly become addicted to his music! Thanks for reacting to him, Michael ☺️
If you’re gonna react to NF, you have to do the NF journey to get the full effect. He’s made his music like the avengers movies where it’s a continuous story that continues on with each album, and you can hear the growth both musically and spiritually
The casual listener is not going to do all the songs or watch in order, fortunately even though that enhances the experience it's not actually necessary to appreciate or enjoy.
This whole album is a masterpiece. Please listen to the rest of it, I would love to know your thoughts! Also, the cellos are a signature throughout the album 👌🏻
NF is my absolute favorite artists. I’ve listened to him since his album release in 2016. The balloons in this video represent his burdens, and how they always seem to hover over and follow him through life. Each song is a deep portrayal of emotions and I relate to him very much. The song Therapy Session is very deep but explains a lot of his struggles. I Miss The Days, Hate Myself, & JUST LIKE YOU are all amazing songs. My favorites.
Ive been listerning to NF since 2015, this man literally changed my life, his my favorite rapper, by the way the Baloons means his problems sometimes he puts them on a gym bar and is working out (meaning his working out his problems (this is in song called WHY)), the white uniform means join the systematic way of getting help(the song is called LEAVE ME ALONE), he explains it better in the song I just gave references.
the balloons represent his burdens, and I think the "pump my stomach" line says how he's sick of fame, in his song ' change' the first line is "I don't do drugs, I'm addicted to the pain though" and in his song 'only' he says "love my job but it might seem odd that I'm here cause I hate fame"
I think that the balloons represent, black tar heroine that is sold in balloons. Basically the burden you speak of, if you get sober it’s always in your past, you live a life of comparison, just this leads you into violating a commandment that tho shall not cover thy neighbor, but it’s easy to cover thy self, memories and past, you can push and trudge through time, but these balloons are creating drag. These balloons are what had created the reality that u lived in and that affects perception of surroundings. Even when sober it leaves lasting impressions . But who knows?
NF doesn't swear or objectify women in his music. you should listen to his songs and watch his videos because i really liked your interpretation of this.
Saw that smile at the beat drop at 2:44 . Grab your balloons and enjoy the ride. No one better, more relatable, and positive out there right now. Hes the now and future #NFRealMusic ❤🗝
@@Ainsworth33 i love watching reactions to Just Like You from Clouds bc i swear EVERYONE always gets this beautiful smile of relief and love at that last epic chorus.. real music
Omg, yes!!!! Davies needs to keep Michael on the NF train, he's the best!!! I'm so happy about this! Nate is a Christian and most of his songs relate in some way to Christianity, which is one of the many reasons I love him so much. As much as the song kills me to listen to whenever I hear it, I would love to see Michael react to How Could You Leave Us. I think he would start to understand why all of us Outcasts love NF so much. 🙏
NO WAY. NO FREAKIN WAY. Michael already delved into the metal side of my music taste when he reviewed Zombified by Falling in Reverse, and now he’s going into the rap side with NF.
NF has been through much trauma and difficulty in his life. Personally, I love his songs Hate Myself, Mansion, Only, and 10 Feet Down. He is the voice of those who cannot speak and keep their feelings locked away. I have chronic pain and a disease called Lyme disease that have drastically impacted my life. The lyrics to his songs hit too close to home sometimes.
I have always loved your channel and was absolutely blown away when I saw you doing a reaction to NF. He is a lyrical genius and has taken the music industry to a whole new level. I would encourage you to start your journey from the beginning. The most powerful line of this song is “Yeah, the sales can rise Doesn't mean much though when your health declines” 🖤
I, along with other commentators and fans on your page, hope you continue analyzing NF. He has saved many people by simply expressing his feeling through song. NF is to many, what Jordan Peterson is to young men- they both have saved many people from the dark depths of their own hell. They both have talked abt what a depressing life they have both experienced, but when they get a fan, reader, or enthusiast that comes up to them and tells them "you have changed my life" - they both describe it as such a powerful experience that makes their work worth it. Mr. Knowles, I think you'll find that the more reactions to NF that you post/review, the more your comment section will come to life!
Nate is truly one of the best lyrical rappers alive today, especially when you factor in not just his wordsmith ability, but the substance of what he is saying. There is another music video, from this same album, that shows what the white clothing and black balloons represent.
I have yet to find any other artist like NF. A clean, christian rapper who doesn’t focus on “oh poor me”, but goes much deeper. He doesn’t write worship songs (for the most part), he just writes songs about his life. His music quality is top notch and his songs’ replay value are phenomenal ☁️, I couldn’t find you a song of his I haven’t listened to at least a dozen times and many of which I’ve gone back to like a hundred times. Great review Michael! I’d love it if you reviewed “Leave Me Alone” or “I Miss The Days” or maybe even one of his older songs like “Oh Lord”. New album is probably coming very soon!!!!! 😁 P.S. If you’re a fan of NF’s recent works I’d recommend going back and listening to “All I Have” which really shows the journey he’s been on in his career.
NF is a Christian and makes that known again and again. The balloons are his burdens/sins and the white clothes symbolize how he views himself as an outcast. We also see him releasing his burdens/sins to God in the following video in the album, "Leave me alone." When he doesn't put on the clothes it shows how he believes he is not worthy of God's grace and forgiveness which the clothes also symbolize.
I LITERALLY just thought to myself the day before this came out that Michael should react to some NF I think you'd really appreciate Drifting also, the balloons are representative of his burdens. When he says "grabbing my keepsakes, leaving my burdens. Well i brought a few with me, i'm not perfect" he gestures back towards them. the line about "pump my stomach" is about the fact that he loves his career, and his music, but he hates being famous, and his job is a juxtaposition to who he is. If you listen to more of his music, His mom was a drug addict and died of an overdose, and in his song "Only" he says his therapist says he needs medication for his depression, but he refuses it because he's afraid to take it.
This song literally saved my life. I discovered I had ocpd and learned how to take responsibility for my actions and participate in the world instead of being a victim of perspective.
The white coats get covered more in the direct sequel to this song called “Leave Me Alone”.. its a really hard track if youre not in his fanbase and used to his rap patterns. But the concept is Nate Vs Fame.. the same people in white are also present at this decayed looking old carnvival of sorts. You see people standing in lines to either get their fake smiles wiped off by “professionals”, or trading in their black clothes for the white. Were pretty sure this alludes to people conforming by taking mind numbing medication for their burdens.. whilst Nate has a history of refusing to be medicated out of fear of losing himself. So he shuts down conformity and, thus, more fame, by refusing to change his clothes and fake smile, and tells “Fame” to Leave Him Alone. Its a masterpiece. ❤
The balloons represent his " burdens." The men in white are his guardian angels. The cart represents his own space and his comfort zone. NF, by far, is one best out there that tells his life story. It starts with the album " Mansions " and goes from there. He doesn't cuss in any of his songs, and most of his songs are about his life with his parents. Dig deep into what he's saying, and you'll begin to know where he's coming from. God Bless 🙏🙏🙏
That's what I think, too. The balloons might be his mental problems, anxiety or OCD or whatever he is trying to deal with. Like a dark cloud following him.
More like the demons from his past that are burdening him. People even Christians can be burdened by demons from their past. Salvation then deliverance is the best way to defeat them.
@@firstandforemost87 Well, sure, until you dig through his catalog and learn what they are (mother dying of an overdose, stepfather that was physically abusive, etc.). The "journey" of going through NF's music is seeing him share the burdens and him trying to cope and heal from them. A lot of people connect with his message, for good reason.
Never thought I'd see Michael Knowles reading to one of my favorite music artists XD. I suggest you react to "Leave Me Alone" next, explains the balloons a bit and shares a bit of his Christian worldview. As a Christian, I can't even express enough how much I appreciate NF for keeping it real and keeping himself clean, always trying to better himself. And along with that, he is a lyrical genius and makes amazing videos and has amazing music in the background. truly a talented artist. Apparently he has helped many people out of depression and abuse through his music.
NF restored my faith in Real music. I discovered him in 2016, the worse year of my life, with Let You Down. I resonated with him because sometimes it's almost like he's in my head. He has become my therapist because he raps about Real life and stays true to himself. I believe you will enjoy the NF journey, it is an emotional ride.
Thanks for reacting to my personal favourite artist/rapper.❤ I also like that you are trying to make this channel quite different by looking at music as well! I liked the video too!
The balloons are throughout The Search album. They're doubts, anxiety, fights for faith, things that keep you down. This album is beyond magnificent. God has His hands all over NF's music. And pumping his stomach of the fame is also on the album signifying he and fame do not get along. So he wants to not be famous.
AHHHHHHH!!! This made me SO happy!!! I am a HUGE fan of NF and absolutely all of his songs from the very beginning and seeing the DailyWire come across them is such a match made in Heaven for me 😭 I audibly screamed when I saw this thumbnail 🤣 PLEASE do more of NF’s music, he’s incredible 🥹🙏🏽❤️❤️
When NF is talking about pumping his stomach, he is referring to when he had a taste and fame and didn’t want it. The exact lyrics are, “Got a taste of the fame, had to pump my stomach Throw it back up like I don't want it Wipe my face, clean up my vomit” Nate doesn’t want to be famous. He doesn’t post a lot on his social media. He’s an extremely private person. He even says he keeps to himself when he celebrates. Please do yourself a favor and take The Journey. You won’t regret it.
The balloons are his burdens, the shopping cart is his mobile "cage" that he goes to sometimes. Before that, there's a bigger cage in the background that is featured on an older song called Outcast. Diving into the symbols/references in NF songs are super deep/interconnected.
I’ve been listening to NF for years and his music has a message that many people need to hear. I have so many of his songs in my playlist because it’s great to hear a person like him make music about topics that are good.
The fact that I have listened to rap music My Whole Life and Michael Knowles is able to teach me something about one of my favorite rappers blows my mind this man deserves more credit all praise to Michael Knowles
This reaction video being more perspective to the Music Video. I didn’t even think of these and nobody else from the other reaction videos to this song did either. Thanks Michael. 💪❤️
I’m so happy he reacted to NF again! This whole album is great, but if you ever revisited I’d be interested to hear Michael’s thoughts on “Change”. Especially since NF mentioned it specifically in this song.
Cool you noticed the cellos in this song. There are strings through the whole thing. I’m good friends with NF’s producer, Tommee Profitt and he is a cinematic producer which is why everything is heavily strong based. Rap/cinematic is a really cool combo for sure!
"Mansion" kind of lays the ground work for alot of NF's work. "Therapy Session" is also crucial to understanding alot of the "journey" as NF fans call it. I doubt Michael will have time to dive into the full the "Journey" but those are good songs to check out. Also, if you want to cry, listen to Why Would You Leave Us. I can't listen to it after losing my little brother a couple years ago, but it's something else.
NF's producer, Tommee Profitt, is a big cinematic music guy and loves using orchestral styles. He's got the best Christmas album out there called, Birth of a King. It's all of your classic Christmas songs with large striking orchestrations. Maybe Knowles can react to some of those songs next Christmas season!
This is the only rapper I listen to. He’s not like other rappers. He doesn’t talk about money flexing, sleeping around, or drugs. He talks about true meaningful stuff. He’s also a Christian.
If you like NF's cinematography, you should definitely check out his video for his song "Story." Not only is it an amazing song, but the video just enhances the experience.
I’ve been listening to NF since 2015 but I didn’t obsessed with him and his music until 2017. Since then I’ve purchased all his albums. Even though he doesn’t call his music "Christian music" he is a Christian. His analogy is, if I remember correctly " If you are a Christian and a plumber are you a Christian plumber?"
Want to learn more about him and his faith without having to go way back and listen to everything, his song Change and the song Nate are great places to start.
I love NF because he's not nasty and his music is easy to relate to . NF, Tom McDonald , Datin, Canon and if you want some great old school I recommend Dynamic Twins, T-Bone, E-Roc, L.A. Symphony, Idol King, LPG, Boombox Titans, Boogie Monsters, A-1 Swift, I'd like to see you react to songs by NF Nate, and Lost
NF is one of the greatest Artists to ever live. He is like Eminem without Violence, and the good thing about that is he is able to keep himself grounded unlike em. I experience this to. I have created another personality, another version of me, someone I don't even know, but who I want to be. Only people who truly know me have seen the difference. Maybe one day I will actually be Tony Ravioli. Ciao.
Not a Christian personally, but I’ve been a NF fan for years and had no idea he was even Christian. It’s nice to listen to a Christian artist who doesn’t cringily bring up god and Jesus

Amen to that.
What's his faith in ?
@@dnzswithwombats Jesus Christ.
So true please
NF speaks of faith, family, mental illness, hope and despair. A real treasure that one seldom finds in the rap game.
i suggest listening to Hopsin. He never made it big bc of his messages. Absolutely fantastic artist
@@knoxvillain865 hopsin never made it big cuz he’s corny. 💀
And all while being a non-profane Christian too and his sound is so unique, he is very talented.
@@JabneyTheKingdon't be a pussy bro, Respect other opinion
NF is very anti-drug addiction, as he lost his mom to drugs.
Love that you watched and reacted to some of NF’s music, he is one my my all-time favorite artists. His music has been so meaningful to so many. 🎈🖤🎶🖤🎵🖤🎈
He also doesn't curse... Still can sound that way. He's a genius. I've been a fan of this guy for sometime now. One of the most unique
He talks about that in his song "How Could You Leave Us".
Why is everyone commenting on drugs and stuff on all of the videos of him reacting to nf
this is not an overlap of my interests that I'd ever have expected. NF is my favorite artist ever
I just started listening to him recently... What a co-inkidink!!
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
I love NF, same for being my favorite artist
Same
Right! Like what in the world is happening 😅. No complaints tho
As a Christian who thought I'd never listen to rap I can say that I've really loved NF. He's got the most meaningful and relatable music
Just wait till you hear Bizzle!
@@heavnxbound yeah KB let it reign he was good on that
There’s alot of positive rap out there.
Same I love NF
Listen to Dax sometime
The balloons represent his burdens. The Search album is absolutely amazing.
Exactly what I was about to say. I also believe it happens to show how he feels about other people. I feel like it kind of shows his perception of how he doesn't see these other people with the same amount of emotional and traumatic baggage. It shows the darkening of his purity as he makes his way through life.
Yeah, I found this on the balloons, "He has explained the image as representing the burdens hovering above him, free to fly away at any given moment, and the burdens that he lugs around, wandering in indecision with his cart." I like the way that's phrased.
Exactly, he even pointed to them in the video when referring to his burdens LOL
Agree. Rap is not my particular thing, but it’s a great album for all the substance.
“Grabbin my keepsakes, leavin my burdens, well I brought a few with me…” goes on the point at the balloons.
I didn’t realize how badly I wanted you to listen to NF. That dude helped me through many struggles within myself.
Same here!
Same. Love NF!
What a joke. It's just some idiot rapper.
@@JonO387 Have you listened to his music? He pours his experiences and struggles into his music. It helped to listen to someone who went through problems, to hear how he thought and know I wasn’t crazy for what I felt.
Same.
Coming from a lifelong metal head, this is an absolutely phenomenal album.
I'm with you. I'm in a mosh pit atleast once every 6weeks but Nate is one of the few hip hop artists I like. Would love to see him live.
I completely agree! My 2022 breakdown of top 5 artists RUclips gave me were 4 super heavy bands and NF 🤣
Been listening to it for the past year and a half, I literally just play this album on rerun
Dude same lol I’ve been a metal dude since I was 4 and I’m 20 now and I discovered NF around summer of 2021 or maybe slightly earlier. Now I am a huge fan of NF.
@@Carnage0708 I've only been to 3 concerts my whole life. One was Linkin Park and the other two are NF. I saw The Search and Clouds. He's so phenomenal live. His voice isn't using auto tune. Him and Joedan Peterson saved me from myself
The balloons represent his burdens. Great interpretation!
I found NF due to a song "How could you leave us?" That song gives a bit of perspective.
Seen him in concert a long time ago before he was super known and they handed out black balloons at the end of the concert he yelled to let them go or pop them it was awesome. 😊
That song made me cry...
Yes, He actually points to the balloons when he states he brought some of his burdens with him
I’d never thought I’d see the day that Michael Knowles reacted to NF. Best. Day. Ever. 😂
IKR 😂 I was watching this like what is happening?? I am here for this!
Same I was listening to this song a ton and now all the sudden Michael reacted to it... crazy
IJR?!?!
@@ItsAllGoodMan696 my favourite of his are Hate myself and Just Like You
I have never clicked on a video so quickly than when I saw this one 😂 best way to get my 2023 going!
From Moments to Clouds, I have listened to every one of NFs songs on repeat. There’s a song for almost every emotion. His story is incredibly sad, yet he makes it beautiful and relatable. And, he raps/sings all clean lyrics, so I can share (in moderated doses) to my children. ❤️NF
One of only like 3 artists that I have listened to every single available song he has and have listened to his 5 main albums on repeat multiple times, truly don’t get bored of his music
Never heard of NF but this made me cry. Not only because of the deep and meaningful words but Michael's reaction and understanding of the obvious pain this man is working through. Music is supposed to make you feel something, this truly did.
Check his music out, a lot of its fantastic, and he really leans into using music as an out or a cure to his problems. The best part about that is when he releases another album, or doesn't you will truly know he will keep his word.
@@tonyravioli1982 agreeeeeee! wake up is a fav
If this made you cry don't listen to 'how could you leave us'. No, really. Listen to it.
@@Xtinalace I love I hate myself
I love NF! A rare mainstream rapper that keeps his head above water and isn't succumbing to the world's temptations and lies! NF is also unashamed to speak about his faith in Christ and I absolutely love that!
I’ve been an avid NF fan since around 2016 now, so since I was nine. My parents were sorting through some very heavy issues in their marriage, and as a result I was very depressed and angry up until I was 13.
NF was my way to cope, relate, everyday I’d listen to him, so I felt normal. I relied on his music completely, I learnt so much from him, and him being Christian and me being Catholic helped seal that, hearing all he’s went through whilst remaining faithful, gave me hope for my faith.
I literally owe him my life, and now at 15, I still listen to him everyday, I know every word to every song. Thank you so much for acknowledging this awesome man! :)
Nice! I became a fan the same year. Went to his concert with my ex in 2019. Oh the good times.
Get good grades!
@she craves it
You get your ass I get good grades man! Thank you for the support and advice however small to was! 😂
“Got a taste of the fame, had to pump my stomach
Throw it back up like I don't want it
Wipe my face, clean up my vomit” Michael it’s not a drug reference, it is a referring to him finding the reality of fame and despising it, “had to pump my stomach” refers to him forcing himself to vomit the fame back up.
honestly... I appreciate that he misunderstood this line by so much. Michael seems very scripted when he talks about stuff so often in my opinion. Being so off base with that part of the assessment helped to make it feel more genuine.
@@Dyre05 good point
It's a reference to fame being an addictive drug to narcissists.
Technically it’s a drug reference…fame is a drug.
@@Dyre05 interesting take
At the beginning of the video, NF tells us what the balloons represent. Drug use is NOT a problem for NF. He does have a problem with being famous, not because of the fans, but because he's an introvert. He uses a lot of humor in his videos. I am a 70 year old woman. I don't like rap, never have. One of my daughters introduced NF to me about 3 years ago. You may also notice that NF doesn't cuss.
Yes, thank you for correcting that. The balloons represent his burdens. I also didn’t agree with Michael’s interpretation of the white and black clothes. I imagine the woman on the swing is his mother, obviously sleeping (RIP) on the swing, carrying her own burdens. He looks out and sees other people wearing the white clothes; he sees them differently than himself. He, wearing black, sees himself as “stained” and unforgiven. He sees himself in such a negative light, but to him, everyone else is “saved,” (hence they white clothes) but recognizes that they carry their own burdens as well. I think the main idea of this section of the music video is that he sees himself as different from everyone else, and he’s fighting to accept God’s love, in turn, loving himself.
I pray for NF often; God gave me a burden for him and Bridget a long time ago. If you read this, pray for him too, that he finds peace in his soul, learns to love himself, and the God that made him 💜 he’s a beautiful soul. I thank God for his impact on the world.
Perhaps the white coat at the end, not forced on him, is a decision for him to make, represents an option. Cleanse, accept God.
The reference to pumping of the stomach and the white clothes at the end.. it's a suicide attempt and surviving, going into a mental facility. That's the obvious take, so maybe I'm wrong.
@@dre.ale.1191 I agree with everything you said. Nate needs our prayers. He wants too find peace and joy but is afraid of those things as well
Thank you ma'am. I'm 23 and it's really neat to see all the different people that relate to the same kinds of music I do
The balloons are his worries and negative thoughts.
They go with him everywhere.
They both hold him back and he feels insecure without them. He doesn't want them and feels he needs them at the same time because they've always been there unlike the people he was supposed to rely on in his childhood.
Dude's music is pretty deeply human.
NF- Clouds
Every album, every song paints a collective story. Its really a disservice to only listen to a few.
Yeah. It's really cool how much he references his old songs.
Exactly!
Yeah, but no way Matt is gonna take the time to travel from Intro to current so cut him some slack. Hell I've prob missed a few in the last 6 years.
It is almost impossible to absorb all those lyrics in the first listening.
This is my 3rd listen and I’m learning even more, I don’t wanna compare him to Eminem, but it’s kind of like catching some of ems lyrics after a long time, but your absolutely right and I love artists that are able to take you on so many journeys that make you understand more and more each time,
The "pump my stomach" lines aren't a direct reference to drugs, but a metaphor for fame. It talks about how when he gained fame it began destroying him, and how he had to try to rid himself of it, like an addict trying to rid himself of drugs. In one of his more recent songs, 'clouds', he has some lines that make it clear he never got into drugs, and his mother died of an overdose, so the guy really doesn't seem like someone who'd do drugs.
This man and his gift of lyricism literally saved me. Only person that could ever articulate my feelings
NF’s old stuff (mansion/TS erra) has some great songs like “real” and “notepad.” It’s a different feel than this, more down to earth. And I think you would like that era as well
The intro from his first album.. THE BEST
I LOVE NF AND REMEMBER THIS AND I MISS THE DAYS ARE MY FAV SONGS
Notepad is a classic , i break down every time i listen to Mansion
Mansion is legit one of my favorite songs. It's my favorite album of his too.
Nate (NF) is highly underrated. His lyrics hit close to my life and heart! He definitely wears his heart on his sleeve about his life, his struggles and his faith and relationship with Jesus. His music has helped me through a rough year, last year
NFs slogan is “real music” and it fits perfectly. He doesn’t whine, he just raps to put his thoughts and motivations out there. I respect his music a lot and part of it is because he doesn’t care if you like his music or not. I genuinely think he just does it because it’s what he likes to do. You can tell there’s real passion in his work if nothing else.
Along with all his skills he never curses once, he is just telling his story. All of his music is like this just from different points of view, the song trust is by far my favorite and it shows soooooo much talent.
What's great is that artists like tech nine and hopsin respect him enough that they don't swear when they're on a track with him either
As a conservative who struggles w mental health and emotional trauma... im genuinely surprised to see Knowles highlight NF on his channel, but also very delighted by it! NF is actually an incredibly honest human bring and great role model.
Keep ya head up Sean, Stay strong, stay focused on the positives in life brother. ☮️ and ❤️
You should check out “Hi Ren” by the artist Ren. If you like NF, you’ll love it.
@@IratePuffin thanks I'll look into it!
NF's music speaks to your soul. All the places that have been pierced or wounded inside can find a mirrored agony somewhere in his songs. He's relatable to all the broken masses out in this broken world. AND gives glory to God for his success. Yes, please do react more to this man's music. Take the NF journey with us!
I met Nate years ago at a concert. It was just him and his IPhone. I had a signed EP from him and we grew up like 45 miles away from each other! He’s incredibly kind and a really good dude!
As a Muslim guy that only really listen to classical music and never thought of listening to rap. NF is the only rapper that I respect because he dont rap about sex, drugs, and cursing every second but rather sings about many things that I can relate to on many levels. I also like seeing Michaels view on the balloons because I see his balloons as burdens that he can't let go of because of him being afraid that it would change him to a person he isn't. Btw great video Michael!
The crossover I never expected, but am absolutely here for! Would love for you to review more of his work
I said the same thing!! I sent this video to my son and wrote "how cool is this crossover"
NF is ones of the most insightful artists out there right now.
NF is amazing! The best part of his music is that is not silly or idiotic. The man talks about things that are hard and real in an impressive and artistic way. Mr. Knowles, I so much appreciate your review. Thank you
Oh my gosh, I about jumped out of my chair when I saw that you were reacting to NF. I discovered him about 2 years ago and he is my number one go-to artist. Give him a chance and you will quickly become addicted to his music! Thanks for reacting to him, Michael ☺️
Favorite NF song! Glad to see you give him a listen! NF is an amazing rapper and deserves all the flowers!
listen to changes
If you’re gonna react to NF, you have to do the NF journey to get the full effect. He’s made his music like the avengers movies where it’s a continuous story that continues on with each album, and you can hear the growth both musically and spiritually
The casual listener is not going to do all the songs or watch in order, fortunately even though that enhances the experience it's not actually necessary to appreciate or enjoy.
This whole album is a masterpiece. Please listen to the rest of it, I would love to know your thoughts!
Also, the cellos are a signature throughout the album 👌🏻
Found you Ben
@@joshendley 😲😳
NF is my absolute favorite artists. I’ve listened to him since his album release in 2016. The balloons in this video represent his burdens, and how they always seem to hover over and follow him through life. Each song is a deep portrayal of emotions and I relate to him very much. The song Therapy Session is very deep but explains a lot of his struggles. I Miss The Days, Hate Myself, & JUST LIKE YOU are all amazing songs. My favorites.
Ive been listerning to NF since 2015, this man literally changed my life, his my favorite rapper, by the way the Baloons means his problems sometimes he puts them on a gym bar and is working out (meaning his working out his problems (this is in song called WHY)), the white uniform means join the systematic way of getting help(the song is called LEAVE ME ALONE), he explains it better in the song I just gave references.
the balloons represent his burdens, and I think the "pump my stomach" line says how he's sick of fame, in his song ' change' the first line is "I don't do drugs, I'm addicted to the pain though" and in his song 'only' he says "love my job but it might seem odd that I'm here cause I hate fame"
Yeah but the literal meaning of “pump my stomach” is a drug OD treatment.
You gotta be famous before you can be sick of fame. I've never heard of this person before.
@@JonO387 peanut brain
I think that the balloons represent, black tar heroine that is sold in balloons. Basically the burden you speak of, if you get sober it’s always in your past, you live a life of comparison, just this leads you into violating a commandment that tho shall not cover thy neighbor, but it’s easy to cover thy self, memories and past, you can push and trudge through time, but these balloons are creating drag. These balloons are what had created the reality that u lived in and that affects perception of surroundings. Even when sober it leaves lasting impressions .
But who knows?
@@trainedtocheese3844 Yes, I might call him that.
NF is amazing. How could you leave us hits you in the gut and is still one of my favorites 🖤
NF doesn't swear or objectify women in his music. you should listen to his songs and watch his videos because i really liked your interpretation of this.
I HOPE NF APPROVES THIS REVIEW! He needs to give Michael a shout out for getting the message right
Saw that smile at the beat drop at 2:44 . Grab your balloons and enjoy the ride. No one better, more relatable, and positive out there right now. Hes the now and future #NFRealMusic ❤🗝
Haha. That’s hilarious. I was expecting a little more of a reaction than that from him 😂. How about a head nod?
@@Ainsworth33 haha.. hey, Nate made that micro expression catchable. Nates too lovable 🗝
@@Ainsworth33 i love watching reactions to Just Like You from Clouds bc i swear EVERYONE always gets this beautiful smile of relief and love at that last epic chorus.. real music
Omg, yes!!!! Davies needs to keep Michael on the NF train, he's the best!!! I'm so happy about this! Nate is a Christian and most of his songs relate in some way to Christianity, which is one of the many reasons I love him so much.
As much as the song kills me to listen to whenever I hear it, I would love to see Michael react to How Could You Leave Us. I think he would start to understand why all of us Outcasts love NF so much. 🙏
Thank you Mr. Knowles for once again appreciating fine art.
NO WAY. NO FREAKIN WAY. Michael already delved into the metal side of my music taste when he reviewed Zombified by Falling in Reverse, and now he’s going into the rap side with NF.
Alright now you have to react to leave me alone. It brings more context to the balloons and white uniforms. Also another fantastic and powerful song
That song is fire
He did!
I've followed NF for a long time. He often refers to his mind as his "Mansion". He constantly has battles with Fear as a character in his songs.
NF has been through much trauma and difficulty in his life. Personally, I love his songs Hate Myself, Mansion, Only, and 10 Feet Down. He is the voice of those who cannot speak and keep their feelings locked away. I have chronic pain and a disease called Lyme disease that have drastically impacted my life. The lyrics to his songs hit too close to home sometimes.
Hate Myself is my favourite of him, when I need a boost though, When I Grow Up gets me hyped
Have you heard the song "Hi Ren" by Ren?
I have always loved your channel and was absolutely blown away when I saw you doing a reaction to NF. He is a lyrical genius and has taken the music industry to a whole new level. I would encourage you to start your journey from the beginning. The most powerful line of this song is “Yeah, the sales can rise
Doesn't mean much though when your health declines” 🖤
I, along with other commentators and fans on your page, hope you continue analyzing NF. He has saved many people by simply expressing his feeling through song. NF is to many, what Jordan Peterson is to young men- they both have saved many people from the dark depths of their own hell. They both have talked abt what a depressing life they have both experienced, but when they get a fan, reader, or enthusiast that comes up to them and tells them "you have changed my life" - they both describe it as such a powerful experience that makes their work worth it. Mr. Knowles, I think you'll find that the more reactions to NF that you post/review, the more your comment section will come to life!
Nate is truly one of the best lyrical rappers alive today, especially when you factor in not just his wordsmith ability, but the substance of what he is saying. There is another music video, from this same album, that shows what the white clothing and black balloons represent.
I have yet to find any other artist like NF. A clean, christian rapper who doesn’t focus on “oh poor me”, but goes much deeper. He doesn’t write worship songs (for the most part), he just writes songs about his life. His music quality is top notch and his songs’ replay value are phenomenal ☁️, I couldn’t find you a song of his I haven’t listened to at least a dozen times and many of which I’ve gone back to like a hundred times. Great review Michael! I’d love it if you reviewed “Leave Me Alone” or “I Miss The Days” or maybe even one of his older songs like “Oh Lord”. New album is probably coming very soon!!!!! 😁
P.S. If you’re a fan of NF’s recent works I’d recommend going back and listening to “All I Have” which really shows the journey he’s been on in his career.
NF is a Christian and makes that known again and again. The balloons are his burdens/sins and the white clothes symbolize how he views himself as an outcast. We also see him releasing his burdens/sins to God in the following video in the album, "Leave me alone." When he doesn't put on the clothes it shows how he believes he is not worthy of God's grace and forgiveness which the clothes also symbolize.
I actually took my son to see NF a few years ago and his live show was awesome and the message in his music truly resonates
Awesome Dad award
I LITERALLY just thought to myself the day before this came out that Michael should react to some NF
I think you'd really appreciate Drifting
also, the balloons are representative of his burdens. When he says "grabbing my keepsakes, leaving my burdens. Well i brought a few with me, i'm not perfect" he gestures back towards them. the line about "pump my stomach" is about the fact that he loves his career, and his music, but he hates being famous, and his job is a juxtaposition to who he is. If you listen to more of his music, His mom was a drug addict and died of an overdose, and in his song "Only" he says his therapist says he needs medication for his depression, but he refuses it because he's afraid to take it.
I love Drifting, but If You Want Love is probably my favorite
@@Trinidadianlove not a big fan of that one. Lost in the Moment is my all time favorite
This song literally saved my life. I discovered I had ocpd and learned how to take responsibility for my actions and participate in the world instead of being a victim of perspective.
The white coats get covered more in the direct sequel to this song called “Leave Me Alone”.. its a really hard track if youre not in his fanbase and used to his rap patterns. But the concept is Nate Vs Fame.. the same people in white are also present at this decayed looking old carnvival of sorts. You see people standing in lines to either get their fake smiles wiped off by “professionals”, or trading in their black clothes for the white. Were pretty sure this alludes to people conforming by taking mind numbing medication for their burdens.. whilst Nate has a history of refusing to be medicated out of fear of losing himself. So he shuts down conformity and, thus, more fame, by refusing to change his clothes and fake smile, and tells “Fame” to Leave Him Alone. Its a masterpiece. ❤
You need to react to more NF
Song suggestions:
Therapy Session (this one specifically)
Leave me alone
How could you leave us
Hate myself
I suggested change, I think he’d love the themes in it
Agreed, i would love to see him react to therapy session
Leave Me Alone would have a lot for him to delve into.
If You Want Love is another great song by NF that resonates with a lot of people. I’d enjoy seeing your reaction to that one!
Not one swear word, not talking about clapping cheeks and getting money, NF knows what we really want to hear and is symbolic in his music.
Nf is magic he doesn’t curse in his Music and he spends positive message and serious issues to young people
The balloons represent his " burdens." The men in white are his guardian angels. The cart represents his own space and his comfort zone. NF, by far, is one best out there that tells his life story. It starts with the album " Mansions " and goes from there. He doesn't cuss in any of his songs, and most of his songs are about his life with his parents. Dig deep into what he's saying, and you'll begin to know where he's coming from. God Bless 🙏🙏🙏
Yo! I hope he does more NF reactions. Alot of his music videos are connected. The balloons represent his burdens I believe.
That's what I think, too. The balloons might be his mental problems, anxiety or OCD or whatever he is trying to deal with. Like a dark cloud following him.
Whoa! That's really deep. It's almost like a metaphor or something
More like the demons from his past that are burdening him. People even Christians can be burdened by demons from their past. Salvation then deliverance is the best way to defeat them.
Pretty light burdens.
@@firstandforemost87 Well, sure, until you dig through his catalog and learn what they are (mother dying of an overdose, stepfather that was physically abusive, etc.). The "journey" of going through NF's music is seeing him share the burdens and him trying to cope and heal from them. A lot of people connect with his message, for good reason.
NF is someone you should check out more! He is raw, extremely talented, and real. Please react to more of his stuff!
Never thought I'd see Michael Knowles reading to one of my favorite music artists XD. I suggest you react to "Leave Me Alone" next, explains the balloons a bit and shares a bit of his Christian worldview. As a Christian, I can't even express enough how much I appreciate NF for keeping it real and keeping himself clean, always trying to better himself. And along with that, he is a lyrical genius and makes amazing videos and has amazing music in the background. truly a talented artist. Apparently he has helped many people out of depression and abuse through his music.
NF restored my faith in Real music. I discovered him in 2016, the worse year of my life, with Let You Down. I resonated with him because sometimes it's almost like he's in my head. He has become my therapist because he raps about Real life and stays true to himself. I believe you will enjoy the NF journey, it is an emotional ride.
He explains that the balloons signify his burdens.
Michael's face is so stoic the entire time 😂 most reaction channels lose it on the beat drops
I found NF right after his 2nd album like almost 10 years ago now and he has always killed it in my opinion definitely a diamond in the rough
Thanks for reacting to my personal favourite artist/rapper.❤
I also like that you are trying to make this channel quite different by looking at music as well!
I liked the video too!
"A feeling that is ineffable" NFable.. Michael giving us bars
The balloons are throughout The Search album. They're doubts, anxiety, fights for faith, things that keep you down. This album is beyond magnificent. God has His hands all over NF's music. And pumping his stomach of the fame is also on the album signifying he and fame do not get along. So he wants to not be famous.
You know a song is good when the lyrics just have you listening.
NF doesn't even cuss just straight lyricism
AHHHHHHH!!! This made me SO happy!!! I am a HUGE fan of NF and absolutely all of his songs from the very beginning and seeing the DailyWire come across them is such a match made in Heaven for me 😭 I audibly screamed when I saw this thumbnail 🤣 PLEASE do more of NF’s music, he’s incredible 🥹🙏🏽❤️❤️
When NF is talking about pumping his stomach, he is referring to when he had a taste and fame and didn’t want it. The exact lyrics are, “Got a taste of the fame, had to pump my stomach
Throw it back up like I don't want it
Wipe my face, clean up my vomit”
Nate doesn’t want to be famous. He doesn’t post a lot on his social media. He’s an extremely private person. He even says he keeps to himself when he celebrates.
Please do yourself a favor and take The Journey. You won’t regret it.
The balloons are his burdens, the shopping cart is his mobile "cage" that he goes to sometimes. Before that, there's a bigger cage in the background that is featured on an older song called Outcast. Diving into the symbols/references in NF songs are super deep/interconnected.
I’ve been listening to NF for years and his music has a message that many people need to hear. I have so many of his songs in my playlist because it’s great to hear a person like him make music about topics that are good.
The fact that I have listened to rap music My Whole Life and Michael Knowles is able to teach me something about one of my favorite rappers blows my mind this man deserves more credit all praise to Michael Knowles
Been listening to NF for a few years. Dude is legit, raps cleanly, talks about real issues.
More NF please 😁
This reaction video being more perspective to the Music Video.
I didn’t even think of these and nobody else from the other reaction videos to this song did either.
Thanks Michael. 💪❤️
I’m so happy he reacted to NF again! This whole album is great, but if you ever revisited I’d be interested to hear Michael’s thoughts on “Change”. Especially since NF mentioned it specifically in this song.
Again? What other song has he reacted to?
@@justinlindberg “Let You Down”. It was a few weeks ago I believe.
Nf is my favorite artist and this is one of my favorite songs by him.
Agreed. You're Special is also a great song
@@kevinreeves1418 Yes
Cool you noticed the cellos in this song. There are strings through the whole thing. I’m good friends with NF’s producer, Tommee Profitt and he is a cinematic producer which is why everything is heavily strong based. Rap/cinematic is a really cool combo for sure!
String based”
"Mansion" kind of lays the ground work for alot of NF's work. "Therapy Session" is also crucial to understanding alot of the "journey" as NF fans call it. I doubt Michael will have time to dive into the full the "Journey" but those are good songs to check out.
Also, if you want to cry, listen to Why Would You Leave Us. I can't listen to it after losing my little brother a couple years ago, but it's something else.
Really pleased to see you reacting to NF! The lyrics do resonate with so many people
Lol I got hooked on this video when he opens up the video with “was up doggies, it’s wonder mic” 😂 #loveNFforever
NF's producer, Tommee Profitt, is a big cinematic music guy and loves using orchestral styles. He's got the best Christmas album out there called, Birth of a King. It's all of your classic Christmas songs with large striking orchestrations. Maybe Knowles can react to some of those songs next Christmas season!
This is the only rapper I listen to. He’s not like other rappers. He doesn’t talk about money flexing, sleeping around, or drugs. He talks about true meaningful stuff. He’s also a Christian.
You don't like Mesus?
@@chriscampbell4590 never heard of him
@@ELias-vn5yv check out his song Christian't by Mesus.
If you like NF's cinematography, you should definitely check out his video for his song "Story." Not only is it an amazing song, but the video just enhances the experience.
I’ve been listening to NF since 2015 but I didn’t obsessed with him and his music until 2017. Since then I’ve purchased all his albums. Even though he doesn’t call his music "Christian music" he is a Christian. His analogy is, if I remember correctly " If you are a Christian and a plumber are you a Christian plumber?"
Want to learn more about him and his faith without having to go way back and listen to everything, his song Change and the song Nate are great places to start.
This guy's music has saved lives!
I love NF because he's not nasty and his music is easy to relate to . NF, Tom McDonald , Datin, Canon and if you want some great old school I recommend Dynamic Twins, T-Bone, E-Roc, L.A. Symphony, Idol King, LPG, Boombox Titans, Boogie Monsters, A-1 Swift, I'd like to see you react to songs by NF Nate, and Lost
Dlnt forget dax
Those two songs are so sad 😭
NF is one of the greatest Artists to ever live. He is like Eminem without Violence, and the good thing about that is he is able to keep himself grounded unlike em. I experience this to. I have created another personality, another version of me, someone I don't even know, but who I want to be. Only people who truly know me have seen the difference. Maybe one day I will actually be Tony Ravioli. Ciao.
Not a Christian personally, but I’ve been a NF fan for years and had no idea he was even Christian. It’s nice to listen to a Christian artist who doesn’t cringily bring up god and Jesus
