    It’s so refreshing hearing the opinion of someone who can appreciate NFs videos. Everyone else is focused on the music, which is great don’t get me wrong, but they never talk enough about the videos.
    My suggestion for the a next video is When I Grow Up.

    Another element of NF's storytelling through his music, a very intricate part that ties everything together, is his beat selection. Every song that he does has an insane beat that evokes some sort of emotion and always matches the theme so perfectly. His entire production team is just insane. Wow. 👏👏👏👏👏

  • @kellenfurbayern2915

    The background to this song. Rolling Stones magazine had a writer after the search album came out. Who completely trashed him saying that chance the rapper should have been number one. This was his response within a week of that article coming out. The levitation in the beginning is from outro. He mentions he wrote the song while he was levitating he always references previous music that hes done. Even the title of the song is a double entandre. Rolling Stones came out with a song called paid your dues. So he came out with the song in response to that article paid my dues. Keep up the great reactions I'm used to hearing people break down his lyrics but you break down his videos and the cinematography it's amazing.

He does say "killed me twice, rigged the lights" while he is sitting up there (rigged up?) on a lightpost. OR maybe they did it in post ;)
