      Even if its typical I love the analytical way you take things a bit critical. its like I'm back in school the way you make reactions look cool. its obvious you've been given the tools, don't mess with the fools, what I'm basically saying is Knox you rule.

    I love the symbolism of the mountain.
    As you mentioned NF started at the bottom, but we seem him climbing with relative ease. The burdens are there but he's still climbing.
    Who's above him? It's Hopsin.
    He sees Hopsin as a leader. An idol. Hopsin created a path as he climbs the mountain that is infamy. Though they're on the same path, NF and Hopsin are / were at different points in the journey. Hopsin falls just short in his journey. Rather selfishly going it alone to the top, NF not only stops for Hopsin, but goes back for others - recruiting Hopsin to do the same. They've realized the goal isn't reaching the top, it's helping others dig out of their trench so they can begin their journey.

    Knox not only fully understood the song and broke it down. He truly appreciates the artistic point and message. Definitely my favorite reactor but terribly underrated. And your own rap is good as well. I don’t like all of it but most of it is definitely very well produced and lyrically inclined as well.

    Something I think is interesting is the Book of James is mainly about perseverance in the face of struggles and tribulation, James wrote it to encourage the early Christians as they were being persecuted, and so I think that was very fitting to mention as he was rapping about perseverance in the face of his own struggles.

    • @TheHobbyReaper
      @TheHobbyReaper 3 года назад +30

      I was really surprised by that reference from Hopsin. For me the Book of James also is huge on the interconnection of honesty (like in confession) and healing.

    • @elaine1697
      @elaine1697 3 года назад +19

      This stood out to me as well. I found it even more compelling how Hopsin spoke about having his testament added and the book of James speaks on the power of the tongue. Life and death dwells in it. Which then brings to memory the verse that says we overcome by the word of our testimony (Revelation 12:11).

    • @gamecatharsis9600
      @gamecatharsis9600 3 года назад +22

      Also it fits into Nf’s hook. Because the lyric he says “cause when you fail it’s just a test” which is a reference to “count it all joy when you face trials of any kind, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness”

    I have a theory for what the final scene of the music video means....
    so you know when hopsin says "these burdens are heavy, I hope they don't bury me" well the final scene is literally a graveyard of people who have been buried by their burdens. so the last scene is a graveyard of people who have committed suicide due to their mental health 😔😪

      I thought the same thing. When Hopsin was found you could still see most of his upper body like he hasnt been completely buried yet, but the last shot showed no body to be found except the balloons. Also it looks like the balloons are closer to the ground showing that their really buried down there so these people probably lost their battle with their burdens. Good catch on that man.

  • @Charlie_Azrael

    There was an extended "Dark Knight" metaphor in NFs verse. He shouted out the Scarecrow and said that we need heroes to chase away our fears, he then made reference to lurking in the shadows the way that Batman would do, and then NF made a direct reference to Bane. I'm sad he didn't mention me though, he did it on outcast though, and he's had a painted smile for a while. His smile was just skin deep though...

    I just realized something-
    He talks about how he gets higher spirits when joy is there, yet in one of his older songs he said that Joy called him a cheater and she isn’t coming back. Is this a reason that he feels these burdens so much, because he feels a hole that he is missing (being joy) and it has always stuck with him almost holding over his shoulder?

    Maybe it’s me, but going back to what NF said in Clouds, how he’s getting out of his comfort zone in making a mixtape, maybe it was foretelling this scene, which could be considered as all of the features/collabs he’s gonna have on the mixtape. I could very well be wrong, but I think it would be awesome to see.

    Bruh, your breakdowns are on another level... when i just listen to a song, im too dumb to catch anything really, i usually just listen to the beat. but when you break down a song, and explain everything, Bruh, my brain cant compute. but its still entertaining to watch. also thanks for introducing me to Tom MacDonald.

    It has been a while since a collab has had me wanting so much more. We need more of Hop and NF. Knox your break down pulls so much more attention to the lyrics and message, you compliment the artist by helping spread their message.

    In the end, where you see the other people, its symbolism for how their music is helping others deal with their burdens and how they are helping others with mental illness as both Hopsin and NF have both had a huge impact on many people and they both know it (due to their songs where they literally talk about it). They are showing that they are here to help anyone that they can :)

      Hopsin said he wants to collab again but because NF is the "bigger" artist he would need to reach out first. Though it'd be fire if they were like, "Let's do an entire project together." Maybe call themselves "The Outcast and the Ill Minded," or "The Ill Minded Outcasts."

    Man I can't help but enjoy how you breakdown the instrumentals as well and the way take a moment to explain the orchestral impacts and how they are packs. You are truly a student of the game as they say, one of the best ways to breakdown videos ever. Lastly, even the way NF's voice faintly echoed in the beginning is deep.
