Referencing Ghost in the shell and The Ring are probably the best giveaways for ghostwriter. Not saying Norman or any of the other geezer deserve less recognition for that. Just putting that out. There's more people cooking than just Norman, and they deserve some love too.
@@TheCvltGhost in the Shell and The Ring were out nearly 30 years ago in the mid to late 90s so I don't think it's much of a stretch to think that he'd have good knowledge of them, but I reckon Pete and Bas have much, much more ghost writing going on. Definitely a lot of credit wherever it's due though!
Norman Pain's got a good amount of lore surrounding him in his lyrics. How much is real, and how much is just his character is up for debate though. But there's probably some crossover. But the basic story is that he went to prison for a long stretch, and in the interim his parents died, his wife left him, and she also stopped him seeing his children, which pushed him into depression, addiction and homelessness.
I saw the video yesterday 11-03-2024, I felt the music . I am a Nigerian living in Nigeria, the music got my attention and for a long time never heard of this kind. It's an A-class.
I’m not scared to be me bro. All of me. The good and the bad. People need to start being more honest with who they are vs worrying about perception. Sometimes we up, sometimes we down you know?!
I like how much Dash vibed with this. Nothing gets you hype like matching wavelengths with another person's depression. That's the place in your heart where toxic relationships come from.
I hear you but trust depression is usually built from toxic relationships and trust i don’t want nothing to do with any toxic relationships ever again. Friend, family or females
He’s speaking from experience he did a hit and run and though he could hide it by hiding both the bodies in the trunk and he served 18 years during then his family didn’t visit him and when he got out his parents have already passed away and his wife took the kids and went away without him knowing where they went
you should check out norman pain - sonnet if you haven't already. like you really really should, it's darker, more insight into his background and life. you'll like it, and if you don't like it you have bad taste, but i have watched you guys on and off for a while now so i'm pretty certain you'll like it, even if you don't relate or vibe as much as i do.
5:50 funny perspective that i never thought of, 'losing it all and making it back is part of being a hustler' I have always been creative and tried to w=swim through the bs and make my way, and i did lose it all - a couple times- but youre right, I have made back double every time i got back up! im just restless and im a fighter and i know my potential
Food for thought as well, Norman talks about money only two times in the whole session once were he said he didn't care and a vocal voice over that says stacks, so maybe he isn't talking about making property back. Cause if you are a crack head your mind is prolly pretty fried, and making back some sort of sanity after such an ordeal must be a pretty big victory for a 50+ something.. Nice content also!
Okay, I found picking up pennies and being broke. And now I am starting to think about the clothes, when you are a crack head I would imaging that your standards are getting pretty low and everything I've seen of him shows that this is how he dresses in real life as well.. Goddammit there is so much to analyize about Norman it is riddick. I would imaging that his selfimage och feel of security comes from "I don't care anymore" not from swag.
It all just make sence if you see Norman for what he prolly used to be, the crazy person outside the mall that your mom was afraid of and for good reason, he would prolly have ripped of that pretty little blonds pearls anytime of the week for some more of the good stuff!
This is something. This is the last few years and a few more of aftermath of the crazy life I had between 20 and 29. It was just booze, but it wasn’t how much I drank, it was how I drank. If you know you know.
Men need to be able to talk about hard times with out other ppl turning it into a joke, it is ez laughing when it feels awkward and then that hard shipt turns into awkwardnes. No dissrespect tho, you guys seems to have a awesome energy together! Sorry for long comment, got a friend not feeling well so it spoke to me! Have a nice day!
whatever you're going through man, we send love! Trust me we'll all be okay even when life is trying its best to tell you otherwise. It'll be alright. keep doing what you're doing. best channel on youtube. Lets fuckin go man!
You saying that you were late to Norman about having nothing and then making it all back is genuinely funny because you didn’t spend 18 years of your life in prison for involuntary manslaughter of two people lost everybody you knew and love while you were in prison because no one told you your wife ran away with your kids, and then you spent eight years homeless on the streets before two friends pick you back up
The Sadako bar is HARD. A lot of people miss it because they don't know that's the name of the girl from The Ring.
I left that on the video, like how is he gonna hit us with a Ghost in the Shell reference then drop that 🔥 Sadako bar!
That’s actually sick now that you’ve said that. Omg, never disappointed with Pete &bas / Norman pain etc .. 🙌🏼

The line also plays very creatively with the blood in the ring, since the Sadako claw is an actual japanese wrestling move

I though he was a teacher from what I'd read.
He was a teacher. That much is 💯. The rest is likely lore for the character. Either way it's really good stuff
Sounds like that was one hell of a Tuesday for Norman
@@HotdogSosagenaw he really was down and out. This ish comes from his soul .

To have a men's mental health moment, talk that talk.
The darkness is an obstacle, a signal that grows louder every time you silence it.
FACTS N IT GOES FOR EVERYBODY. MAN OR WOMAN. NEVER HOLD THAT PAIN INSIDE TALK ABOUT IT.
I like that the "I just want to feel pain!" Line has a double meaning as in he wants to feel something, or he wants to feel (like Norman) Pain again.
Norman really snapped on this one.
When has he not snapped 😅
They gotta react too sonnet
Props for being open about your depression. Specially in the hip hop space which can be super macho.
I’m not scared to be me bro. All of me. The good and the bad. People need to start being more honest with who they are vs worrying about perception. Sometimes we up, sometimes we down you know?!
@@AlmostJokingPod I relate. Still its awesome that you're that comfortable with it.
@@AlmostJokingPod Keep on rocking you absolute champions
@@AlmostJokingPod having bipolar for years, yes. I’m up or down every damn day.
The irony is that being transparent and vulnerable is the most difficult thing for most men to do, making it unironically a legit badass thing to do
"Cause the world doesn't care for a man all alone." Feel that Norm, feel that.

“I’ll be ok, just give it some time” I felt that

Norm back to his dark solo roots!
Speaking his life story. You have to respect that. Do F*ck by Norman. Same kind of tone. 🔥
Respect the dedication to the Snooker Team.
I was hoping to see you react to this one and it's so good. The expression of mental health and general pain in this one hits home for a lot

100% agree, it's Norman's best song
That back to the friend zone bar hit hard for me.
He is Going In Hard on this One. This one was boOOM
The ODB of the Pete and Bas crew
You should react to Sonnet by Norman Pain! Very good track

💯💯💯💯
The flow tho
Real talk ♥ when you know you know and Norman knows
Strap in. This one is dark. ❤🔥🔥🔥

Brothers! Take it Back by Norman Pain. You got to, you know you want to. Good music
What up doe from Detroit! Norman Pain is raw as fuck. Like ODB raw. Something about UK rap has me hooked. The accents flow so nice for cadence.
Prefer OCB to raws bro 😎
I debate that with my homie. Raws is overrated 🤷🏿♂️
@@adamstock1164lol I mean ol dirty bastard type raw
