Ok so now I have to explain why I don’t think it’s a diss lol. To me, There’s a difference between a diss and an acknowledgement in a competitive field. Em did mention NF in the ringer but if em really wanted to diss, we would get s full diss like normal. Nate is acknowledging ems lyric by referencing slim throughout. But if this is a “diss” it’s already the softest of all time and we don’t know the kind of diss rapper NF is, but we all know ems track record and one line in a 5 min song is NOT a diss.
It is a sub... em literally says " N Fing recovery clone of me" on the ringer eminem has said fuck a billion times over why would he censor himself on that one? Also what was eminem talking about on recovery? fighting demons, mental health, shit the rap game does to you and having fame..... what does NF constantly rap about especially right now? NF said drop the T and A which leaves EM which is a two letter name drop like em did and then flips it afterwards in retrospective its NF telling em hes not trying to be like em hes only being ME. EM probably sees a "style biter as in image/rap skills/etc etc" when looking at NF unlike hopsin and joyner who both were heavily influenced by em.
That was back in 2017.. thing change.. he doesn't follow em on insta anymore n didn't wish on his Bday.. not saying this song is a diss tho but it is a response w other lines at em..
Em says he doesn’t use sublim’s yet “an effing recovery clone of me seems pretty sublim. So I think this fits the bill. A total song of hey I heard u and I’ll talk to u the same way and we can go about this if u want. Proved his flows match all those of the ringer and song is an entire double entendre line for line towards em
Sydney Brown I think that’s why he did it this way. This song is a very similar song to the ringer in flows and that’s the one em said something to him. Again I don’t think he dissed but he definitely showed who he was and what he can do and I think this is possibly the most lyrically talented song in years. Listen to it with the thought every line could have something to do with nf talking to em. We can’t deny NF’s creativity so is this his coming out party like yep I’ll be me but I kin do anything u can and match u.

NF is not dissing Em... But he for sure knew that the conclusion would be drawn. He's way too analytical of his craft to miss it. I think everyone wants to see someone take a shot at Nate cuz he's the real life version of B Rabbit's tactics in the final battle of 8 mile. He's too self critical to be cought by a line.

Tbh, I saw all the reactions, read more comments and articles that I could find, and trust me this comment makes more sense than all the Bs I read or what others commented, It is so real, there is nothing you can actually stick up to him, he is self-reserved, self-critical, basically he is the one who thinks of the mistake, does the mistake, then eventually judges and puts himself in a corner. it'll be hard for anyone to find a spot for NF, still doesn't mean there's no flaw, and as mentioned in the comment above, '' the talent '' is one of possible flaws, but it wouldn't be as if he sucks but maybe they'll mention that only for the perspective and point of view of the disser's fanbase.

I go HAM for dead presidents/AbraHAM/HAM=go and smash up/ entire line was reference of Abraham Lincoln but putting up with a bar by dividing his first name) then NF written stuff comes off pale.. earlier songs had some corny lines that are cringe. He's a reflective rapper who's good with putting in emotion and make u think.. but he needs to be pushed out more with his writings n bars
"Oh Lord they know me so well, they know I'm not in that casket. Trash bag is probably buried somewhere full of my ashes" is a reference to one of his older songs "Oh Lord"
He says "OH LORD, they know me so well...." Because this refers to his song 'Oh Lord' where he says "When I die, put my ashes in the trash bag, I don't care where they go, don't waste your money on my gravestone, I'm more concerned about my soul"
Watching this made me think that you’re like the NF of reaction channels. One of the absolute best in the game, criminally underrated, but your fans are loyal AF 😂. Congrats on 20k, I know you’ll blow up some day just like your counterpart
It is The Third Ernest official; Returns is not a direct diss at Eminem. 🙌 If anyone would be able to pick up on an Eminem diss it would be Ernest so I think that settles it 😂
That line is not aimed at em bcuz so many reacted at that "shoot u up at the sky u aint landing" Bcuz its referring to kamikaze plane of eminem when ringer starts.. but why would u shot a kamikaE plane? When it's purpose is to aim at target and crash on it?
Fun fact: When NF says the lines about his funeral, it’s a nod to I “Oh Lord” when he says “when I die put my ashes in a trash bag, I don’t care where they go, I’m more concerned about my soul”
JoshA437 i don’t really want it I listen to both an love and appreciate both of them , now what is like to see is a colab between them , that would be the best colab ever for me.
Perfect vs Done is a constant topic across most "creative" professions. It's definitely a question you'll expect to hear in software development interviews. "What's better: perfect or done?" The best answer is generally something like "as close to perfect as you can get by the time it has to be done".
Thank you! NF made his own lane and rocks it well. His fame already messes with his head, so even if this was in character for him, hes not about to go clout chasing. I'm already sick of people trying to create this "beef" out of thin air. Grats on 20k bro, well deserved.
There ain't no I in team, but drop the T and A ( if you drop the T and A from team you’d have E and M left) EM Sometimes, if I'm being honest, feels like it's only me No defeat, notably, better have it right if you're quoting me Write my name on your hit list, it might be the last time you wrote something Rip that cocky smile right off your face for thinking you're close to me Grab a can of gasoline, light it all over your self-esteem
NF IS AWOKEN, he is searching, and has stepped out of the corner. It's his time now!! NF has paved his lane with consistent hard work, solid albums, strong bars, and loyalty to his fans!!
Bro i am so glad u n I r on the same page, when u said there reaching thats exactly what i said, i look at all the reactions on this song and they all said. He's dissing eminem. Thank u for seeing through the box then being in it. You're my favorite channel, keep doin wat ur doin
I love your break downs. You draw more from these songs than nearly every other person or group I have watched react to NF's videos. And I have watched a ton of reaction videos to NF's music. Keep it going man! I'm ok with them being longer, because it's quality content you bring over convenience.
Although he said “remove T&A from team= to get ME. He’s obviously not dissing Em. The point of this song is him taking a shot mainly at the music industry and how they have treated him. He also adds that “they will realize what I’m worth” and that he’s an OUTCAST but he has finally returned. By returned he means he’s back to take part in the (top charts)music industry!
Congrats on the 20k...been here a while and good to see!! And thank you for clearing that up...reach is an understatement, simply because he said "...it's only ME" in the very next line. Man, I love the way you break things down!
Analysis: In depth and explained well Opinion: Focused on the video and lyrical artistry Reactions: Proper and timely You, sir, have a new sub. Well done.
You are good man. You explain all the different meanings to these bars more extensive than almost all the reactors. You are a bright young man. Wish you all the success you go after.
So proud of you for the 20k I’ve been subbed since 1k and it makes me so happy to see others realize your talent- keep up with the hard work!! Can’t wait for the Lupe train 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Lol when you were talking about Eminem being "too lyrical", I have this thought all the time where I just picture Em and Lupe sitting in a room chilling and talking to each other in some weird coded langue only they can both understand because it's to complex 😂😂
Not a diss at all. The Funeral lines are a reference to another song called Oh Lord off of the therapy session album and I’m pretty sure the first couple lines from that track is all you need to connect the dots.
Your one of my favorite reactors, I love ❤️ your reactions to NF and this song is one of favorites! NF has new music coming, he’s been on Twitter telling his fan’s new music is coming soon, can’t wait to be there when you react to it!🙌
I know it's been like a hundred years since you put this video out, but I gotta say I really love watching your videos man! I literally can't tell you how many times I tried to tell people there was no way anything in this song was supposed to be a diss, and besides nf isn't type to do it, and to do it like that either, but they were just so gosh darn devoted and sure that it had to be for no reason at all. You actually voiced every single thing I thought when I heard people were saying that. Awesomeness😁🤘🏾!
@@andreasinclairpaz same would also love to see a collab but Em would have to be ok with not cursing and also I dont think NF is gonna collab with any of the major artists. Hes done collabs with Christian rappers but thats about it. Him and Em are just so different it wouldnt work well. Plus I dont know how Em feels about NF but much of Ems fan base have come to NF because they have found things in NF they dont find in Em anymore. So they almost compete for slightly similar crowds. So idk I dont think that will ever happen
@@tbotec7516 So let me put this in a different perspective Nate grew watching 8 Mile and listening to Em. ok Nates grown up now. Hes on the charts. He is competing with the rap game. He still respects every Rapper out there thats on the grind like Em. But He needs his own platform and to endorse himself and he wants to stick to himself. Dont read into stupid social media bullshit. I hate when people take that shit so seriously "OMG NF DOESNT FOLLOW EM ANYMORE HES CLEARLY BEEFING" this isnt buzzfeed stop. Nate is big enough now and he has sort of figured himelf out to where hes trying to just stick to himself and his fans. I cant tell you how many people have deleted social media accounts and stopped following people not because they had a problem with them persay but with social media in General and they just needed a "CHAAAANNNGE" lol but seriously dont be BuzzFeed stop taking that shit so seriously it doesnt matter anyway
I can’t believe I just discovered you?? 🤦🏻♀️ You’ve gained a new subscriber!! Y our reaction to this was amazing, and it just made me appreciate NF as an Artist, a lot more. Thank you 🙏🏼
I like the way you disect every bar.... Your the only one so far that I've seen that actually explains the lirics.... Great JOB....and congratulations on 20k subs
It was a diss, he said "There ain't no I in team, but drop the T and Sometimes, if I'm bein' honest, feels like it's only me No defeat, notably, better have it right if you're quoting me Write my name on your hit list, it might be the last time you wrote" and in Ringer, he mentioned a hit list. Plus no I in team but drop the T and A which is"EM"
@@RealMrMizter well thank you for that but a this is a year old and be I still disagree so you can put that opinion under his post perhaps it's a little late
Also, I've subscribed, you quickly became my favorite reactor, you catch all the bars everyone else misses and not only that, you seem to catch how hard those bars hit more than most. I hear flmaes, fire ass bars and no reactors ever even react to them their faces don't even change and I freak out and yell at my screen like, "DID YOU NOT HEAR THAT SHIT". Good ass reactions bro, seriously.
I feel ya on people claiming it’s a diss. It’s just a stretch for sure. These bars are fire!! NF coming in with some fuego do people should appreciate it. Congrats on the 20k fam!! Well deserved for sure!!
People want to make this what it’s not, because they didn’t listen to NF in the beginning. He’s a story teller, makes his fans think. This song/album correlates with Mansion and Therapy Session... If there’s anything seen as a diss it’s him battling his inner dialogue. I’d say it’s about time he got the recognition he deserves. NF is getting his place by Not being anyone else! Makes that clear he’s on or in a Team, it’s Me!
Dude I've been here for a minute but had to watch this reaction again! I have watched reaction channels for years bro and you are the best I've seen! I have different favorites still but the way you analyze bars and just your knowledge on rap, also how even when it comes to the details about how things were filmed. Or any details you just know because you are 200iq is what makes you the best. Keep it up fam!
I actually think it's just an expression of some frustration with how he's been overlooked by the industry, as well as a bit of a warning to those that may step.
It was a diss, he said "There ain't no I in team, but drop the T and Sometimes, if I'm bein' honest, feels like it's only me No defeat, notably, better have it right if you're quoting me Write my name on your hit list, it might be the last time you wrote" and in Ringer, he mentioned a hit list.

You are thee best rap reaction youtuber out there that I've seen. Your commentary is intruiging, even deep at times. Taking that cake layer by layer son🔥🔥 takin it melted💯
Hey brother I just wanted to tell you I really really appreciate your reactions! I am personally more of an NF than I am a fan of anybody else's music right now. I personally enjoy watching NF reactions from a lot of different reactors because I have been following NF for over 6 years now. But one thing I will say about you over almost every other reactor out there I can tell you actually know what you're talking about and I love the fact that you pick up on everything that he's doing in his music and how he writes his music. He is extremely clever with his word play and all the little double entendres and it's so easy to miss it if you're not actually listening for it. I literally laugh and scream out loud when I watch other reactors when they're missing things left and right in his music LMBO! Anyhow I just wanted to say I know this is only the beginning for you I know for certain better days are ahead with regard to your channel! I guarantee you this thing is going to keep on growing as long as we keep seeing the quality of reactions you're putting out there for us! Hope you have a great day take care and God bless!
I completely agree with you. Yeah you could super stretch some lines into thinking it could be a diss. But it just ain't. He's just generally speaking about the game. I wish people would stop trying to create beef. I do however think Em's "N EFFING RECOVERY CLONE OF ME" was a direct shot at NF, but that's what Em does! And I love NF, but he knows better than to go after Em. He's not ready for that! But an AMAZING SONG, and people should be talking about that and stop trying to fabricate beef. Nice reaction Fam!
nf is responding to eminems diss on the ringer where eminem subliminally dissed nf calling him an "an effing recovery clone of him.... When he says take the t&a out not only does it spell em t&a is used to describe something that's mature (tits and asses) so basically take away the the T&A from em it leaves nf (since he doesn't cuss) Im surprised no one has caught this yet. ALso the gun jammin is not a generic line since eminem released killshot. "pushing forward see I can't ignore it", I cant ignore it referring to eminems diss on the ringer. Put my name on your hitlist is nf saying if you ever decide to take it further than subliminals and step to me you'll get thre real smoke. Also eminem does have a little cocky half smile which he uses rarely. shoot you out of the sky refers to eminems kamikaze plane, and the punchline refers to his ringer subliminal diss which nf feels did not land. continuing on to the gun jamming part nf is saying if he tries to release a kill shot on him his gun will jam. He is also going at other people as well like critics but he definitely is taking subliminals at eminem. hes responding subliminals with subliminals how else should he respond?
It would probably a good thing if someone truly talented (NF seems pretty talented) were to dis Eminem. The goodness would vary depending on how seriously Eminem took the dis. I'd really be interested in hearing a new Eminem dis crafted carefully, and taken seriously, by Eminem. I want to hear that real skill/talent from Eminem again. Half of Kamikaze showed some serious promise, like he was actually beng serious about setting people straight. I want more of that side of Eminem. It's going to take someone with real talent (possibly NF) to bring the real effort out of Eminem.
i am literally in disbelief still because every song i hear from nf gets better and better the more he releases and I keep thinking that song was so fire it can't get better then this then boom IM BLOWN AWAY every single second
You are only going up my man, congrats on 20K! As always, excellent break down. I waited to watch this video before deciding if it's a diss, I agree both of the supposed disses are stretches
THIRD ERN I CHALLENGE YOU!! Do a combo reaction to Sasha Sloan “The Only” and NF’s “ONLY” Doesn’t have to be a full break down of both; that’s a lot to break down, but a general combo pack. Just a special request to switch up the NF train ride.. be like T’Challa and accept the challenge
Luuuuupeeeeeeee Traaaaaaaiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnn!!!!!! I’m waiting for it! And I have a prediction cause I’ve seen this play out before. Once you’ve done a few Lupe songs, at least 3 or 4 reactors will suddenly start reviewing Lupe. I’ve seen this most recently when Matthews Fam started going through Weird Al’s catalog and rap battles of history (or whatever it’s called) and both were suddenly being covered by other reactors. Nothing wrong with that, I’m just looking forward to Lupe being more heavily covered.
I'm torn. I didn't fully think that Em dissed NF in the first place. I also don't think this is a diss towards Em, it may be a nod towards Em from NF, but not a diss. If NF was to diss someone, especially Em, he would come out and say it so there was no question or speculation. If anything, this was a well-played way for NF to use words in this song to cause question, which then causes more buzz about his song and his album.
Great breakdown fam ... and ur right ... not a diss at all 👊🏽 NF’s bars are so nasty ... his lyrical game is getting better and better ... every album purchase is worth it... his quality is too notch ... the return ... no excuse ... options are insane!!!! Glad u digging his music like we all are 😎
@@yaniselgarcia802 He didn't say he was, he said he felt NF could be a good battle rapper which is true, he has the delivery, the wordplay and the self awareness necessary for it.
Your the only reactor that has straight up came out and said what I believe is obvious which is there is NO shots taken at Eminem. I actually felt embarrassed for all these other reactors and listeners who just keep spreading that heresy 😂
CodacMoments In Statement he praises Em, it’s totally different actually and he most definitely doesn’t and normally Earnest is great with breakdowns but he got an F in this one
CodacMoments You definitely aren’t in tune with social media 😂 and you think bars are only one meaning bars 😂 that would be mumble rap, since you don’t understand lyricism, maybe you should try that easy stuff 😂
Ironic that I found this channel immediately after my first NF video, The Search. The content breakdowns are inferno levels of fire. It legit feels like I am sitting with my bro and talking about this over a pizza. Thanks for being the first third Ernest. 👊
Ok so now I have to explain why I don’t think it’s a diss lol. To me, There’s a difference between a diss and an acknowledgement in a competitive field.

Amen brother
I agree
I totally agree..not a diss he is just stating his position
Maybe ISIS 2.0 Eminem and NF
Can we just all take a moment to recognize the greatness of a dude who goes this hard without a single curse word? Fire.
Why did i just read the word fire the way thethirdernest says it in the video 😂
NF doesn't need clout by dissing Em. He is blowing up on his own. I don't think it was a diss. Seems people want to see them beef.
Think of it more like he wants to show he wants the torch from em
It is a sub... em literally says " N Fing recovery clone of me" on the ringer eminem has said fuck a billion times over why would he censor himself on that one? Also what was eminem talking about on recovery? fighting demons, mental health, shit the rap game does to you and having fame..... what does NF constantly rap about especially right now?

Bcuz its referring to kamikaze plane of eminem when ringer starts.. but why would u shot a kamikaE plane? When it's purpose is to aim at target and crash on it?
Fun fact: When NF says the lines about his funeral, it’s a nod to I “Oh Lord” when he says “when I die put my ashes in a trash bag, I don’t care where they go, I’m more concerned about my soul”
People just want it! Can't blame them tho! Lol
NF is the best
#TeamNF 100%
JoshA437 i don’t really want it I listen to both an love and appreciate both of them , now what is like to see is a colab between them , that would be the best colab ever for me.
I would be shocked if they ever colabed lol
#TeamNF yo
Would much rather see a collaboration that a beef......probably wont happen but we just got tracks with juice world and young MA so you never know!
The world isn't ready for a NF/Eminem beef or collaboration. Too much 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@Cory Harger Awesome comparison!
THANK YOU. Legit getting under my skin hearing all of these fools say it's a diss.. it's NOT.
Perfect vs Done is a constant topic across most "creative" professions. It's definitely a question you'll expect to hear in software development interviews. "What's better: perfect or done?" The best answer is generally something like "as close to perfect as you can get by the time it has to be done".
Thank you! NF made his own lane and rocks it well. His fame already messes with his head, so even if this was in character for him, hes not about to go clout chasing. I'm already sick of people trying to create this "beef" out of thin air. Grats on 20k bro, well deserved.
Warrior7807 appreciate it! And yes he already doesn’t like fame or the spotlight but he’s gonna go and diss the biggest name in rap? Lol sureeeee
There ain't no I in team, but drop the T and A ( if you drop the T and A from team you’d have E and M left) EM
Sometimes, if I'm being honest, feels like it's only me
No defeat, notably, better have it right if you're quoting me
Write my name on your hit list, it might be the last time you wrote something
Rip that cocky smile right off your face for thinking you're close to me
Grab a can of gasoline, light it all over your self-esteem
Everyone that actually follows NF should know he is/was a huge EM fan.
Edit: thx for all the likes lol
Creeper Bomb so what..mgk was also a huge fan of em.. em was mgk's idol.. you can see videos in youtube..
@@hrishabhpranboruah Yes but MGK did it for popularity, when NF is literally known for being Real
MGK was too...didnt turn out well for him
@@Quidifyy But Em threw a shot at NF so things changed
@@gxb3655 It wasn't really a diss towards NF if you really listened to the lyric
I have been waiting for this the whole day
So happy to see you back man
I live for those break downs!
You and layedbak are my top reactors in RUclips, keep going man
João appreciate that man!! That’s a big comparison for me!
Layedbak is dope
Layedbak is cool as well👌
Finally. One of the few people who actually has an intelligent reaction to this song. That earned my subscription.
NF IS AWOKEN, he is searching, and has stepped out of the corner. It's his time now!! NF has paved his lane with consistent hard work, solid albums, strong bars, and loyalty to his fans!!
I know we just got album 4 but I’m wondering what we are gonna get for album 5
Bro i am so glad u n I r on the same page, when u said there reaching thats exactly what i said, i look at all the reactions on this song and they all said. He's dissing eminem. Thank u for seeing through the box then being in it. You're my favorite channel, keep doin wat ur doin
Hodges Power appreciate that man! Yeah I’m just calling it how I see it. You think em is gonna sneak diss anyone?? He’s never done that lol
I love your break downs. You draw more from these songs than nearly every other person or group I have watched react to NF's videos. And I have watched a ton of reaction videos to NF's music. Keep it going man! I'm ok with them being longer, because it's quality content you bring over convenience.
Although he said “remove T&A from team=
to get ME. He’s obviously not dissing Em.
The point of this song is him taking a shot mainly at the music industry and how they have treated him. He also adds that “they will realize what I’m worth” and that he’s an OUTCAST but he has finally returned. By returned he means he’s back to take part in the (top charts)music industry!
Congrats on the 20k...been here a while and good to see!! And thank you for clearing that up...reach is an understatement, simply because he said "...it's only ME" in the very next line. Man, I love the way you break things down!
I’m expecting a more than normal amount of dislikes on this video from people who think it’s a diss lol.
People just wanna fantasize a fake beef
TheThirdErnest you where wrong you only got 9 dislikes lol
I don’t really want to see an Em and NF beef.
I wouldn’t have been able to choose a side.
"take the T and A out of Team" whats left tell me
NF already told you what's let - Me. It's an old joke, there's no I in team, but there is "me".
Dude youre the best reacter that doesn't miss anything and breaks every line down. Keep it going.
Analysis: In depth and explained well
Opinion: Focused on the video and lyrical artistry
Reactions: Proper and timely
You, sir, have a new sub. Well done.
"Rip that cocky smile right off your face for thinking your close to me"
For one EM dont smile, he doesnt sleep, doesnt wink, man just stays a zombie.
You kill it every video bro! I’m a huge NF fan but I’m interested in other artists that you enjoy. Keep it up man!
Dmoney54114 join us on this Lupe fiasco train bro! Departing shortly!
Bro, you are the wisest reactor i've ever seen. You have more insight than almost all of the reactors i know. NF IS THE GOAT
NF brought me to your channel but I’m here for everything else now, keep it up you’re the outcast in the rap breakdown game
You are good man. You explain all the different meanings to these bars more extensive than almost all the reactors. You are a bright young man. Wish you all the success you go after.
It’s not a diss people!!
Congratulations on 20k bro.
Great job as always.👊🏼
CONGRATS ON 20K BRO!!! YOU'RE THE MAN!!!
Best break down reaction I've seen. Well played Ernest!
Not a diss to me either. I just took it as he (NF) doesn't need T&A for clicks.
As per usual, A1 breakdown, and congrats on the 20K
Clicks clicks clicks.
So proud of you for the 20k I’ve been subbed since 1k and it makes me so happy to see others realize your talent- keep up with the hard work!! Can’t wait for the Lupe train 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Zhanna Inotayev yess!!! Another OG!! Thank you for the talent and seeing the potential! Lupe starts this week!
I AGREE WIT U I WAS LIKE "yall people jus love starting sum" CMON NOW!! 😂
Bruh ive been with you since before ONE THOUSAND followers. Glad to finally see you getting a bigger following!
Lol when you were talking about Eminem being "too lyrical", I have this thought all the time where I just picture Em and Lupe sitting in a room chilling and talking to each other in some weird coded langue only they can both understand because it's to complex 😂😂
I've been listening to NF for years and your videos even teach me something on the word play and bars that just went over my head
Not a diss at all.
The Funeral lines are a reference to another song called Oh Lord off of the therapy session album and I’m pretty sure the first couple lines from that track is all you need to connect the dots.
Your one of my favorite reactors, I love ❤️ your reactions to NF and this song is one of favorites! NF has new music coming, he’s been on Twitter telling his fan’s new music is coming soon, can’t wait to be there when you react to it!🙌
Been waiting for this one 🙌
I know it's been like a hundred years since you put this video out, but I gotta say I really love watching your videos man! I literally can't tell you how many times I tried to tell people there was no way anything in this song was supposed to be a diss, and besides nf isn't type to do it, and to do it like that either, but they were just so gosh darn devoted and sure that it had to be for no reason at all. You actually voiced every single thing I thought when I heard people were saying that. Awesomeness😁🤘🏾!
I would love to see NF and EM go at it, it would be cool to see them both spit bars at each other
King_Windy I wouldn’t love to see it , I’d love to see a colab , that’s just me though.
@@andreasinclairpaz same would also love to see a collab but Em would have to be ok with not cursing and also I dont think NF is gonna collab with any of the major artists. Hes done collabs with Christian rappers but thats about it. Him and Em are just so different it wouldnt work well. Plus I dont know how Em feels about NF but much of Ems fan base have come to NF because they have found things in NF they dont find in Em anymore. So they almost compete for slightly similar crowds. So idk I dont think that will ever happen
V1G1LANTE K9 true true you have a point.
@@V1G1LANTEK9 NF Used to follow Em om social media but he isn't following since a year atleast, problematic?
@@tbotec7516 So let me put this in a different perspective Nate grew watching 8 Mile and listening to Em. ok Nates grown up now. Hes on the charts. He is competing with the rap game. He still respects every Rapper out there thats on the grind like Em. But He needs his own platform and to endorse himself and he wants to stick to himself. Dont read into stupid social media bullshit. I hate when people take that shit so seriously "OMG NF DOESNT FOLLOW EM ANYMORE HES CLEARLY BEEFING" this isnt buzzfeed stop. Nate is big enough now and he has sort of figured himelf out to where hes trying to just stick to himself and his fans. I cant tell you how many people have deleted social media accounts and stopped following people not because they had a problem with them persay but with social media in General and they just needed a "CHAAAANNNGE" lol but seriously dont be BuzzFeed stop taking that shit so seriously it doesnt matter anyway
I can’t believe I just discovered you?? 🤦🏻♀️ You’ve gained a new subscriber!! Y
our reaction to this was amazing, and it just made me appreciate NF as an Artist, a lot more. Thank you 🙏🏼
You should react to Statement! Another great hype song from NF.
I like the way you disect every bar.... Your the only one so far that I've seen that actually explains the lirics.... Great JOB....and congratulations on 20k subs
I don't think it was a diss at all...I think a collab between these 2 would be epic though! #thethirdfam awesome reaction as usual Mr. E, 🐶 and 🐈 💜✌
That would be so cool if they collabed or showdowned
It was a diss, he said "There ain't no I in team, but drop the T and Sometimes, if I'm bein' honest, feels like it's only me No defeat, notably, better have it right if you're quoting me Write my name on your hit list, it might be the last time you wrote" and in Ringer, he mentioned a hit list. Plus no I in team but drop the T and A which is"EM"
@@RealMrMizter well thank you for that but a this is a year old and be I still disagree so you can put that opinion under his post perhaps it's a little late
Also, I've subscribed, you quickly became my favorite reactor, you catch all the bars everyone else misses and not only that, you seem to catch how hard those bars hit more than most. I hear flmaes, fire ass bars and no reactors ever even react to them their faces don't even change and I freak out and yell at my screen like, "DID YOU NOT HEAR THAT SHIT". Good ass reactions bro, seriously.
No one dissed anyone 😂, I love listening to both artists though.🙂
Mgk and nf is better collab than eminem.
I feel ya on people claiming it’s a diss. It’s just a stretch for sure. These bars are fire!! NF coming in with some fuego do people should appreciate it.
Congrats on the 20k fam!! Well deserved for sure!!
People want to make this what it’s not, because they didn’t listen to NF in the beginning. He’s a story teller, makes his fans think. This song/album correlates with Mansion and Therapy Session...
If there’s anything seen as a diss it’s him battling his inner dialogue.
I’d say it’s about time he got the recognition he deserves. NF is getting his place by Not being anyone else! Makes that clear he’s on or in a Team, it’s Me!
Can I say I'm so happy I found your channel! Your intellect and analysis are astounding. I've learned so much. Keep up the good work
Personally I think its a warning to every rapper u mess with NF he will body you. great reaction u nailed it bro
NF would definitely body anyone who tried to come at him.. thats why no one has steped up to him. People know.
Dude I've been here for a minute but had to watch this reaction again! I have watched reaction channels for years bro and you are the best I've seen! I have different favorites still but the way you analyze bars and just your knowledge on rap, also how even when it comes to the details about how things were filmed. Or any details you just know because you are 200iq is what makes you the best. Keep it up fam!
Honestly don't think it's a diss, but I can't wait to hear your thoughts.
I actually think it's just an expression of some frustration with how he's been overlooked by the industry, as well as a bit of a warning to those that may step.
It was a diss, he said "There ain't no I in team, but drop the T and Sometimes, if I'm bein' honest, feels like it's only me No defeat, notably, better have it right if you're quoting me Write my name on your hit list, it might be the last time you wrote" and in Ringer, he mentioned a hit list. Plus no I in team but drop the T and A which is"EM"
i really dig your breakdowns/reviews. you catch things i catch, that it doesnt seem other reaction channels get. i dig this a lot, subscribed.
I was waiting for your thoughts on this
You are thee best rap reaction youtuber out there that I've seen. Your commentary is intruiging, even deep at times. Taking that cake layer by layer son🔥🔥 takin it melted💯
I don’t think em dissed him I think it was more like a “playful jab at Nf” to put it in some term lol. And totally agree with you 🤟🏽
Hey brother I just wanted to tell you I really really appreciate your reactions! I am personally more of an NF than I am a fan of anybody else's music right now. I personally enjoy watching NF reactions from a lot of different reactors because I have been following NF for over 6 years now. But one thing I will say about you over almost every other reactor out there I can tell you actually know what you're talking about and I love the fact that you pick up on everything that he's doing in his music and how he writes his music. He is extremely clever with his word play and all the little double entendres and it's so easy to miss it if you're not actually listening for it. I literally laugh and scream out loud when I watch other reactors when they're missing things left and right in his music LMBO! Anyhow I just wanted to say I know this is only the beginning for you I know for certain better days are ahead with regard to your channel! I guarantee you this thing is going to keep on growing as long as we keep seeing the quality of reactions you're putting out there for us! Hope you have a great day take care and God bless!
I completely agree with you. Yeah you could super stretch some lines into thinking it could be a diss. But it just ain't. He's just generally speaking about the game. I wish people would stop trying to create beef. I do however think Em's "N EFFING RECOVERY CLONE OF ME" was a direct shot at NF, but that's what Em does! And I love NF, but he knows better than to go after Em. He's not ready for that! But an AMAZING SONG, and people should be talking about that and stop trying to fabricate beef. Nice reaction Fam!
I agree and the em shot wasn’t like talking shit or trying to start something because if it was, we know em wouldn’t go light.
nf is responding to eminems diss on the ringer where eminem subliminally dissed nf calling him an "an effing recovery clone of him.... When he says take the t&a out not only does it spell em t&a is used to describe something that's mature (tits and asses) so basically take away the the T&A from em it leaves nf (since he doesn't cuss) Im surprised no one has caught this yet. ALso the gun jammin is not a generic line since eminem released killshot. "pushing forward see I can't ignore it", I cant ignore it referring to eminems diss on the ringer. Put my name on your hitlist is nf saying if you ever decide to take it further than subliminals and step to me you'll get thre real smoke. Also eminem does have a little cocky half smile which he uses rarely. shoot you out of the sky refers to eminems kamikaze plane, and the punchline refers to his ringer subliminal diss which nf feels did not land. continuing on to the gun jamming part nf is saying if he tries to release a kill shot on him his gun will jam. He is also going at other people as well like critics but he definitely is taking subliminals at eminem.
hes responding subliminals with subliminals how else should he respond?
Congrats on 20K man! Looking forward to Lupe, heard so much about him, but I wasn't I to rap much at the time.
Johnathan Granados introducing the Lupe train this week!
It would probably a good thing if someone truly talented (NF seems pretty talented) were to dis Eminem. The goodness would vary depending on how seriously Eminem took the dis. I'd really be interested in hearing a new Eminem dis crafted carefully, and taken seriously, by Eminem. I want to hear that real skill/talent from Eminem again. Half of Kamikaze showed some serious promise, like he was actually beng serious about setting people straight. I want more of that side of Eminem. It's going to take someone with real talent (possibly NF) to bring the real effort out of Eminem.
Facts.
I think you're the best in breaking down the songs. Love from Iraq 🇮🇶
Notification Squaaaadddd✌🏽🔥
The funeral/ buried in a trash bag is a through back to a line from Oh Lord, great song! Congrats on 20K!
EM is NF influence and he Will never diss his influence ..
That was before Eminem dissed nf and nf unfollowed emenim
Like the man said EM never subliminal diss
Might have been a jab but just friendly competition. We have ALL seen how em does when he’s trying to diss.
i am literally in disbelief still because every song i hear from nf gets better and better the more he releases and I keep thinking that song was so fire it can't get better then this then boom IM BLOWN AWAY every single second
Finally!! Someone actually pays attention and tells it ain’t a diss.
I just found out about you, and your the first reactor who actually puts real thoughts into the videos and songs! I think I’m gonna stick around
First! Lesss go! But fr, 0 views but 8 likes? RUclips, you drunk again? 😂
You are only going up my man, congrats on 20K! As always, excellent break down. I waited to watch this video before deciding if it's a diss, I agree both of the supposed disses are stretches
Bro kindly react to NF Nate
Emotional and awesome song 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😘
Thks 🇸🇬
5:45. The scream in the song legit freaked me out for a second!
THIRD ERN I CHALLENGE YOU!!
Do a combo reaction to Sasha Sloan “The Only” and NF’s “ONLY”
Doesn’t have to be a full break down of both; that’s a lot to break down, but a general combo pack.
Just a special request to switch up the NF train ride.. be like T’Challa and accept the challenge
Lol like your marvel reference😂
Congrats on 20K!!
Always looking forward to your videos!!
Finally someone telling it like it is. Def not a shot at Em. People just want this too much.
Luuuuupeeeeeeee Traaaaaaaiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnn!!!!!! I’m waiting for it! And I have a prediction cause I’ve seen this play out before. Once you’ve done a few Lupe songs, at least 3 or 4 reactors will suddenly start reviewing Lupe. I’ve seen this most recently when Matthews Fam started going through Weird Al’s catalog and rap battles of history (or whatever it’s called) and both were suddenly being covered by other reactors. Nothing wrong with that, I’m just looking forward to Lupe being more heavily covered.
I'm torn. I didn't fully think that Em dissed NF in the first place. I also don't think this is a diss towards Em, it may be a nod towards Em from NF, but not a diss. If NF was to diss someone, especially Em, he would come out and say it so there was no question or speculation. If anything, this was a well-played way for NF to use words in this song to cause question, which then causes more buzz about his song and his album.
Great breakdown fam ... and ur right ... not a diss at all 👊🏽 NF’s bars are so nasty ... his lyrical game is getting better and better ... every album purchase is worth it... his quality is too notch ... the return ... no excuse ... options are insane!!!! Glad u digging his music like we all are 😎
I think Nf could actually be a pretty good battle rapper
Ross Keane oh yeah? What battles has he been in? Do you have links?
@@yaniselgarcia802 Not what they were saying.
I agree. He’s def got the delivery for it.
@@yaniselgarcia802 He didn't say he's a battel rapper. He said he feels he can be a good battle rapper if he did. Comprehensive reading is important.
@@yaniselgarcia802 He didn't say he was, he said he felt NF could be a good battle rapper which is true, he has the delivery, the wordplay and the self awareness necessary for it.
THANK YOU!!!! These are my exact words!!
Your the only reactor that has straight up came out and said what I believe is obvious which is there is NO shots taken at Eminem. I actually felt embarrassed for all these other reactors and listeners who just keep spreading that heresy 😂
ruclips.net/video/NrXF8sC8JBY/видео.html
Dude, congrats for the 20K! Love these videos!
No diss. None. People trying to spark a flame
CodacMoments You definitely don’t have an ear for deep lyricism bc he addressed Em’s songs so much in this song
It's a general message, just like Statement. I thin Ernest has it right.
CodacMoments In Statement he praises Em, it’s totally different actually and he most definitely doesn’t and normally Earnest is great with breakdowns but he got an F in this one
And it looks like you're in the minority on this one.
If NF comes out and says it was, I'll come back here and tell you you were right.
CodacMoments You definitely aren’t in tune with social media 😂 and you think bars are only one meaning bars 😂 that would be mumble rap, since you don’t understand lyricism, maybe you should try that easy stuff 😂
Ironic that I found this channel immediately after my first NF video, The Search. The content breakdowns are inferno levels of fire. It legit feels like I am sitting with my bro and talking about this over a pizza. Thanks for being the first third Ernest. 👊
I really don't think that this was a Diss, and even if it was, it wasn't about Eminem.
I've been here since 11k, and the way how your content is very enjoyable, I can't wait for you to blow up.
Lil Geez thanks for the support man!
