Well he used to curse and make songs with curse words but then he realized he that was not him then be stopped cussing and stopped making songs with those type of songs
@@samsonic44844who said Eminem doesn't like NF 🤔 the only thing Eminem said was that he was a recovery clone of him. That was also on Kamikaze where Eminem was going at anyone and I think he brought up NF cuz Mgk dissing him so he may have thought NF would take a shot at him as well
@@brandontalley4288 my bad, I saw a reel of Eminem talking bout NF. Probably shouldve listened to the whole podcast/interview. Thanks for the clarification
NF himself: "I sounded too much like Eminem at one point" NF fans when someone says he sounds like Eminem: "He NeVeR OnCe SoUnDeD LiKe EmInEm u H8tErS!1"
I love that he is so reminiscent of Eminem, it’s like he’s a spiritual successor of sorts, but he’s also very much his own person and distinct in his artistic style. He isn’t a copy or a pastiche of Eminem at all, but has that same greet skill for storytelling/narration
@@calebvaldez7318 it s true tho cause the title is a clickbait ,he didn t said he doesn t listen to em he said the opposite :)literally same with j cole who at the start bited em and nas style till he found his style like this happens at the start you sound like the artist you got inspired till you found your sound
I really hope they collab one day on a track called ‘Skittles’! Fr though, NF always stay so humble, his response to Eminem, calling him a knock off was simply “I truly respect and was influenced by Eminem’s music”, instead of saying something negative back was just amazing, especially when it’s coming from someone you idolized before making it big yourself. NF keeps it as real as his music! 🙌
You could definitely tell he was influenced by Em, but he's such a good artist he still had his own style to it. Props to him for exploring other forms of art though.
are y'all braindead? this is not clickbait lmfao. to summarize this video for you goofballs - "i used to listen to eminem way too much that it would show in my music, i had to stop listening to eminem to become a more unique version of myself" where is the lie? tell me how this is clickbait. please.
easy to say when you are not in that position..imagine putting in all the work day in and out and when it is out,people say its like that other guy,which removes any originality that was there...
Sounding like someone and being compared are different. You want to be compared to the GOAT not told you sound like him. People view NF as an eminem imitation because they claim he sounds the same. That's not something good because they basically saying NF is in eminems shadow and doesn't stand on his own two feet because he's copying eminem. Now if NF was being compared to eminem then that's different because that would be more of a compliment because then people would be comparing his skill to the GOAT but as it stands he's not being compared to eminem but is viewed as an imitation, that's not something you want.
@Skitzo I never said NF sounds like Em, I'm repeating what others say about him. To me they sound completely different and I don't see how some people can say he's an imitation. NF sounds completely unique to me. And no one compares NF to em because as much as I love NF and think he is great, he is nowhere near eminem lyrically and in terms of flow and cadence. There are very few rappers, so little you can name on one hand, that can actually be compared to em and NF isn't one of them.
Having your own recognizable sound and style is a mark of a good artist. Eminem is an icon, no question, but as someone in the same genre that is trying to make a name for himself, you want to “step out of the shadow” at some point and create your an unique sound.
this is the main thing is he doesn't even have to cuss and be disrespectful to be good and many can relate in somewhat of a therapy. to have someone who may have went through similar things or situation and it be somewhat of a expression or release and not keep it bottled within ones self never being able to release them expressions. its an outlet for me

Nothing else is a call back to his older music) There are many good songs not on this list like Dreams and you’re special etc. At some point take the time and go back through and listen to them all. 🖤
It’s this way with everything. As an artist you might be inspired by Van Gogh and then by a local artist and then by Claude Monet. These all meld into you to create a unique style, yet these styles are still noticeable.
See he’s aware of it himself, so haters can’t use the Eminem thing anymore cuz he rlly doesn’t flow like em does, if u rlly listen, it’s different, but there similar in a way but not
I'm a big fan of Em and NF...and I'll honestly say NF is like the no profanity version of Em...both lyricists with one big difference...one curses on every beat..one doesn't on any beat.
I could care less about celebrities, but this is one dude I'd love to meet. He's my farvorite living artist. Crazy talented and relatable. Seems like a genuinely nice person!
Same for me, spent like 8 years listening to just Eminem, Slaughterhouse and Tech N9ne. It's good to hear other artists too but I still keep tabs on what they're all doing now
He's got his own style and own therapy that helps so many people. Gotta respect him. He's saved alot of lives through his music. You should listen to his stuff if you haven't recently. 😊
He hasn’t sounded like em since like his album “moments.” That’s what he’s talking. It literally sounds like Eminem on the first track. After that, he developed his own style and it’s freaking great
I think I like NF so much because I grew up listening to a lot of old school Eminem music, and he gives that same exact energy and keeps it. Old school eminem would talk about struggles in life and that's what NF does. You can definitely see the inspiration of Eminem in NF's work and I don't see that as a bad thing. He's this generation's Em imo.
I'm the same way with playing lead guitar. You learn too many of someone elses licks, makes it difficult to create your own flow through scales and the available modea therein. Only, Mansions, and Hope are my current favs.
@@supercoolrapking Eminem here better lyrics and music both he is called lyrical genius by whole hip hop community for a reason this is highest level of disrespect comparing him with corny rappers like nf🤷
Yeah clearly Eminem is better. And thats fine because Eminem is on another level than 99.9% of rapper. But I do think some people enjoy NF’s music more because Eminem has juvenile things like toilet humor or rapping about “flicking the Vice President balls like a light switch.” Eminem peppers a lot of lines like that into his music.
He's not saying he stopped listening to Eminem, he said he started listening to different types of music, not that he stopped listening to Em. Everyone is looking for beef, stop man, they are not having beef.
NF has developed his own style. Every artist in every genre is influenced and sounds like their influencer. Then if they are creative and unique, they develop their style. Eminem did that same shit. Nf bares his soul and it’s felt through his music. There is no bullshit at all in this man. He’s original, skilled , he’s not as popular because he didn’t sell out. He does what he needs to for his mental health and that’s it. That’s my opinion. And bless him for his courage.
You probably just haven't listened to enough. He has a bunch of hype rap songs, some slow rap songs, some songs where he just sings. He even has a kind of rock-ish song. He's very versatile. I suggest you listen to Real, Change, Paid My Dues, The Search, Hope, or Leave Me Alone. If you liked those you can just go through his discography. Almost all of his music is rap.
Who, NF? Hell nah. Hes got slower, more popish songs, hype rap, more aggressive rap. Might have the most variety out of any rapper. And you must have listened to like 2 songs 😂
He didnt say he doesn't listen to em. He just said the more variety on his playlist, the less his music resembled eminem, bc for so long he only listened to eminem
sm1(from India)who has been mostly just an eminem fan when I hit low in my life. it's a +++. em doesn't releases much like before. nate is more of a cleaner sophisticated version and more positive. while eminem is like I'm gonna wreck it boom boom.😎😎😎
That's mad real. He was over influenced by one artist. You see this alot. He has shown growth since then for sure. He's gotten better at things aide from rap in its technical form.
Intelligent AND the most handsome. Nate, hopefully I’ll be your wife in another life! Lol. Been through a lot of similar stuff. He will continue with his greatness forever. He’s my living legend!
I always have to school youngens. My children are in their mid to late 40's. I had to hear all the rap back "in the day", as young folks say. My kids loved all of it. They loved Eminem and I did too. When I first heard his earlier songs, yeah, I could hear in his rap staccato, and some inflections of Em, but he has his own voice which of course is different, because he is NOT Em. Obviously he will be compared. But now that he has come into his own, I don't hear it like that anymore. I think it's because of his content and how he has developed his own style. If you are white, you will be compared to Em, anyway. That's just how this cou try works. He is holding his own in his own right. Going to his concer here in Kansas City in May and I am 66 and black. LOL!
Definitely still heavily Em and that isn’t bad. This kid is pure fire on the mic no doubt. Still have to write and perform that incredible shit. I’m amazed by anyone that is that clever. Em is the most clever though.
I think for most of the people it comes out all natural when someone reminds them of another and that doesn't mean they mean to compare or disrespect or literally have any negative they jus tryna bring out the facts you all gotta relax someone's saying will never change a thing people who wanna listen to nf they will listen to him no matter what nf knows what he's doin Better to avoid such controversies you know "people"
Well, the title was very misleading
Yup

I like how he doesn’t swear in his songs and spits facts

There are many good songs not on this list like Dreams and you’re special etc.
At some point take the time and go back through and listen to them all. 🖤
Just leaving a comment, cuz i wanna come back n look all the songs 💙

wow
It’s this way with everything. As an artist you might be inspired by Van Gogh and then by a local artist and then by Claude Monet. These all meld into you to create a unique style, yet these styles are still noticeable.
Nf is a lyricist,no doubt .
your music is amazing man, Thank you NF!! Congrats on HOPE...that album is FIRE!!
Oh God he did not say he stopped listening to Eminem, he just said he started listening to other people also to widen his music.
all those people who think NF takes shots at Eminem need to watch this
See he’s aware of it himself, so haters can’t use the Eminem thing anymore cuz he rlly doesn’t flow like em does, if u rlly listen, it’s different, but there similar in a way but not
Nf king 🖤
I'm a big fan of Em and NF...and I'll honestly say NF is like the no profanity version of Em...both lyricists with one big difference...one curses on every beat..one doesn't on any beat.
NF is Eminem if he never grew up in the hood
This is well said. I personally don’t enjoy listening to profanity constantly and I relate on a very deep level to NF’s music. So it’s NF for me 🤙
@@Spiralredd lol true
He is a handsome dude 😮 I already knew that. But man did he go through a lot. I’m glad he found a gal that can actually nurture him.
I could care less about celebrities, but this is one dude I'd love to meet. He's my farvorite living artist. Crazy talented and relatable. Seems like a genuinely nice person!
all i listed to for a year straight was nf
Same for me, spent like 8 years listening to just Eminem, Slaughterhouse and Tech N9ne. It's good to hear other artists too but I still keep tabs on what they're all doing now
inspiration is divine!! go NF and Eminem and their uniqueness respectfully!
Yeah wt he said is true even though em is a goat
Listening to others also will help your creativity in rap
Holy cheekbones
nf is so good looking man the most handsome white rapper
He can sing and rap and make amazing videos, he's an amazing artist
Used to dislike NF cus I felt he was trying to sound like em on purpose. Now I have greater respect for his talent
He's got his own style and own therapy that helps so many people. Gotta respect him. He's saved alot of lives through his music. You should listen to his stuff if you haven't recently. 😊
Mistake is my favorite track I have others but this one hits
He hasn’t sounded like em since like his album “moments.” That’s what he’s talking. It literally sounds like Eminem on the first track. After that, he developed his own style and it’s freaking great
I just started listening to him and I love his songs😮
Love you NF. Your new album is so great
Love nf
I pray nf becomes #1 rapper
NF is amazing!!!!!!!💖🥰
Mad respect to NF!
I think I like NF so much because I grew up listening to a lot of old school Eminem music, and he gives that same exact energy and keeps it. Old school eminem would talk about struggles in life and that's what NF does. You can definitely see the inspiration of Eminem in NF's work and I don't see that as a bad thing. He's this generation's Em imo.
Nf is the god of mewing🧏♂️
WHAT THE SIGMA
On your new album you can hear the new rappers you are listening too as well.
Best decision NF made! He’s so much better than Em . Actual talent!
Fr. Although tbf, em is very talented. His music just kinda sucks.
I could here Eminem in some of his songs, which I like, but I’m glad he has his own distinctive style
Oh, how far he has come.
I'm the same way with playing lead guitar. You learn too many of someone elses licks, makes it difficult to create your own flow through scales and the available modea therein.
Only, Mansions, and Hope are my current favs.
❤️NF❤️
Some idiots are commenting he has better music than Eminem lol like seriously how can you disrespect a legend like Eminem 😐
Exactly. There is a difference between better production (Dre for more hip-hop style, NF for more cinematic style) and better rapping (Em).
@@supercoolrapking Eminem here better lyrics and music both he is called lyrical genius by whole hip hop community for a reason this is highest level of disrespect comparing him with corny rappers like nf🤷
@@eshanarejo2636 Ur freakin wildin bro
Yeah clearly Eminem is better. And thats fine because Eminem is on another level than 99.9% of rapper.
But I do think some people enjoy NF’s music more because Eminem has juvenile things like toilet humor or rapping about “flicking the Vice President balls like a light switch.” Eminem peppers a lot of lines like that into his music.
He's not saying he stopped listening to Eminem, he said he started listening to different types of music, not that he stopped listening to Em. Everyone is looking for beef, stop man, they are not having beef.
NF you
can become an EMINEM MASTERPIECE
I love him so damn much❤
NF has developed his own style. Every artist in every genre is influenced and sounds like their influencer. Then if they are creative and unique, they develop their style. Eminem did that same shit. Nf bares his soul and it’s felt through his music. There is no bullshit at all in this man. He’s original, skilled , he’s not as popular because he didn’t sell out. He does what he needs to for his mental health and that’s it. That’s my opinion. And bless him for his courage.
When I first heard The Search, I thought it was Eminem at first
Imagine:
Eminem x NF
That would be a collab made in heaven
It'll never happen(unfortunately), but it would break the rap game wide open. I'd love to see it.
you could not name a worse collab if it paid your bills istg
@@jaceepevey9080 em was not in either of those songs...?
And kind of changed the WAY I AM
🌞 I totally understand ‼️many have been there & your not alone l listen to all types now & it's changed me 😘
He should do more rapping. I listened to most of his songs, and they seem like slow r&b about how he doesn’t give a 💩
You probably just haven't listened to enough. He has a bunch of hype rap songs, some slow rap songs, some songs where he just sings. He even has a kind of rock-ish song. He's very versatile. I suggest you listen to Real, Change, Paid My Dues, The Search, Hope, or Leave Me Alone. If you liked those you can just go through his discography. Almost all of his music is rap.
Who, NF? Hell nah. Hes got slower, more popish songs, hype rap, more aggressive rap. Might have the most variety out of any rapper. And you must have listened to like 2 songs 😂
NF is the goat
NF and eminem are G.O.A.T.S❤
He is so much better than Eminem now.
he has his own legacy
He totally does, he even lists some of his favourite songs by Eminem.
When you pull up NF with me, you clearly hear that NF sound exactly hard-core like Eminem again that song, is with me
Good stuff! Trying songs with different languages helps you hit lines more fluent.
em: you know am sayin
nf: you know
Really young eminem and nf in moments sounded exactly the same. (Im a fan of both)
He might have sounded like nf but his music had more meaning for me ❤
NF the type guy to get into beef with EM and win
Nah idk about that lol I don’t see him beefing with anyone really, just doing his own shit
He didnt say he doesn't listen to em.
He just said the more variety on his playlist, the less his music resembled eminem, bc for so long he only listened to eminem
In his new song turn my back he says he till Wana hear more Em
That's beautiful 🎉
Being that Em is in a different place, I would love to hear them together
eminem and him collaborating on a song would be amazing
sm1(from India)who has been mostly just an eminem fan when I hit low in my life. it's a +++. em doesn't releases much like before. nate is more of a cleaner sophisticated version and more positive. while eminem is like I'm gonna wreck it boom boom.😎😎😎
Love that 🥺❤️
That's mad real. He was over influenced by one artist. You see this alot. He has shown growth since then for sure. He's gotten better at things aide from rap in its technical form.
Nf has always improved tech in rap
His clouds mixtape showed that two years ago some of his best tech writing
He still listens to Eminem. He just started listening to more than just Eminem.
He’s talking about that shit on SoundCloud all his Eminem copycat days was like 10-15 years ago😂 still fire
Intelligent AND the most handsome. Nate, hopefully I’ll be your wife in another life! Lol. Been through a lot of similar stuff. He will continue with his greatness forever. He’s my living legend!
Love your music bro
I always have to school youngens. My children are in their mid to late 40's. I had to hear all the rap back "in the day", as young folks say. My kids loved all of it. They loved Eminem and I did too. When I first heard his earlier songs, yeah, I could hear in his rap staccato, and some inflections of Em, but he has his own voice which of course is different, because he is NOT Em. Obviously he will be compared. But now that he has come into his own, I don't hear it like that anymore. I think it's because of his content and how he has developed his own style. If you are white, you will be compared to Em, anyway. That's just how this cou try works. He is holding his own in his own right.
Going to his concer here in Kansas City in May and I am 66 and black. LOL!
But does he know he could be a model?
Definitely still heavily Em and that isn’t bad. This kid is pure fire on the mic no doubt. Still have to write and perform that incredible shit. I’m amazed by anyone that is that clever. Em is the most clever though.
I think for most of the people it comes out all natural when someone reminds them of another and that doesn't mean they mean to compare or disrespect or literally have any negative they jus tryna bring out the facts you all gotta relax someone's saying will never change a thing people who wanna listen to nf they will listen to him no matter what nf knows what he's doin Better to avoid such controversies you know "people"
Everyone has an influence no shame in that .. he evolved an developed his own sound that's what your suppose to do
Much respect
For me
Nf >>>>>> eminem
Em is the King, NF is Prince. It will take a lot more to dethrone Em
