I love Prof so much. Him and Ren are all I listen to. Both have overcome a lot. Prof is known for his funny songs, but I do love it when he's vulnerable like this and gives us insight into his past. Louisiana is my other favorite. Thank you for this reaction.
I dont know why but it seems most of Ren’s fan enjoy Prof as well and vice versa. I discovered them some years apart so I cant really linking them 2 together but god I was dying with hapiness the moment I know they’re gonna collab🥹
I know you like Prof because every reaction I've watched, you're the top comment. Thanks for shouting the guy out so much.
@Spencercf614 in trying to spread Prof so bad. He deserves all the flowers. I've loved seeing Ren's rise and being a part of that, and I want the same thing for Prof! He is criminality underrated!
Ditto to everything you said! 2 gems that shine every day
I cry with him every time. I love Prof...and Ren...both are true artists.
only a couple more days until the prof and ren collab!!!!
im happy you are listening to THIS version of this as well. ALL of his live videos he releases capture the emotions (anger/sad/pain/happy/goofy/gangster) so much more clearly and loudly! Prof is a great artist and great musician.
Much love!
I think with Prof, you need to see both. Louisiana is one where you get a different experience between the video clip and the live performance… but both need to be experienced to complete the picture. With his goofier stuff, like Squad Goals or Horse, the video clips complement the live experience in different ways… but I feel are necessary pairings all the same.
I heard Prop speak about this song and it was directed at his mother and 3 sisters, who at least up until that time, refused to talk about and deal with the family history and issues. He said something to the effect he was throwing a bomb into the situation, not knowing what it would bring.
Thanks for sharing that, I wonder how they took it!
This is why prof is one of the greatest artist out there because he puts all out there....seeing his live , I cried he cried such a powerful song I've been through so much and feel it ...wish I could express myself like him..I'm bottled up but he helps me so much
His father burnt their family home down after he bested his dad in an argument, and his dad died before he was able to get resolution
Really looking forward to seeing what the Prof x Ren collab will look like. Both vulnerable, authentic, and unique.
That would be amazing.
He is absolutely sharing an intimate moment with us, _as_a_performer_. I am not saying that he is not being genuine, but he is balancing the investment of emotion with the knowledge that the camera is THERE, and, most likely, a teleprompter is THERE, and lights and crew members are over THERE. If he is looking down, it may be because he needs a moment to refocus on the music. It would be easy to read something into his physical language when it really stems from a combination of wanting to express things AND make sure he hits all the notes the way he wants to AND trying not to flub the words (because endless retakes of this would be brutal).
I like Prof a lot, and I admire his combination of rap and singing and manic humor and hard truths, but even the most intimate of performances are not 100% true catharsis. I say this as a singer, as a performer in classical music and jazz and musical theater. When you know you have a tender or tragic moment to share musically, you have to balance your emotional investment with the practicalities of performance. I know it looks like a purely emotional expression, but that is the genius of performers. Judy Garland, who had a similar talent for this, was still reserving some of her focus for the technical aspects of performance, while making it look effortless.
His song titled Myself is his story of his dad, it was the first song i heard of his over a decade ago and its still one of my favorites xo
god, i wish more people reacted to Myself. such a great song
Prof’s father set their family home on fire when he was a teenager. His dad was apparently a very smart businessman, and was very intelligent, but he was very violent and explosive. I wanna say he mentioned he was bipolar, and maybe schizophrenic? (Not 100% positive on the schizophrenia). His dad passed away. He talks a lot about never getting that validation from his father, and how he never got to “prove” to him that he made it, so to speak.
Wow. That certainly adds some context ! Thanks for sharing.
And as I remember reading it somewhere, his parents divorced because his father was abusive and his mother took his 3 sisters with her only, Prof got to stay with his dad and it was tough for him physically and mentally also
@@TherapistReactsOfficial no problem!
@@TherapistReactsOfficial this song is really good live too
I cry every time I hear this song or see this performance. I know what he's going through first hand in these thoughts.
There are artists who speak a truth and when it resonates with the listener, that's a way of feeling heard or having a bit of understanding. It's important for both the creator and all of us who will listen and build an understanding. I appreciate the careful and sensitive method of your analysis.
Thanks for taking the time to comment Holly. I do find it quite challenging sometimes to balance general psychological concepts and the persons actual experience that they are singing about as obviously I have very little context about them, and I would hate to seem like I was minimising what they had been through. It’s good to see that I am coming across as sensitive.
@@TherapistReactsOfficial explaining that you have little context at the beginning was a good start, then being open to offering additional interpretations is a nice thing I've seen you do. Kudos
Excellent interpretation, what seems a voice of hope, reason and strength can often in reality be a voice of fear and abandon.
Sometimes it feels as though the only way to feel better would be not to feel at all
Thanks. I think sometimes people end up in that situation - emotionally numb as they figure that they are better off not feeling at all.
I believe the woman is the personification of his ambition. I really don't hear "her" encouraging him to end it.
Prof tells the story of the house fire in Myself, and his dad's violence in Tough Boy. He's really doing well now, though. His last album made him a lot of money and he's close with his family even if he did write this song to try to light a fire under his mom and sisters as far as just talking about stuff.
Thank you to the person who suggested this. I really like it. I’ll def be checking out more.
Spellbound is another great live version
I just wanted to agree that Tough Boy and Myself are the next two songs
Also, that Prof and his mama were in the house when his dad went into the basement and prof left the house after arguing with his father then when he returned, the fire was fully engaged
His father went to prison and died before he was able to make any closure with him
I didn't know any of that, thanks for sharing some of the back story with me.
Prof is my favorite artist and I wouldn't have found your channel without this reaction video. Looking forward to more in the future. ❤️🔥
Thank you for this reaction
I don’t understand how Prof isn’t at a million subscribers minimum.
Prof and Ren just did a track together it’s called “Pain Salesmen”
Both these supremely talented guys have been thru much in their lives, I respect them both
🙏
His eyes being fixed straight ahead, while not necessarily focused on anything - is often called "The 1,000 Yard Stare"... it comes from trauma, a lot of folks with PTSD have it, a lot military vets.
As someone who grew up in a similar home situation, my take on, "give me one more vulnerable moment," is Prof demanding to understand the frame of mind of two parents who failed to recognize what their dynamic was doing to their children and why they weren't given some sort of security. My mother and I are effectively estranged because she can't or won't give me that vulnerable moment.
I belive the voice in Prof's head in this song is trying to manipulate him. To let him live with depression and hardship for longer. "The manipulative demon", if you want. Prof mentions that the voice in his head is "holding a hammer over my head", which in theory hope wouldn't do. Hope is good.
Solid video dude. Great channel you have!
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment, the support is much appreciated.
You're pause around the 15:00 mark... Prof's about halfway through his song and he's still looking like it's something he doesn't want to go through with.
Maybe he means one more vulnerable moment as a hug. I love Prof so much! Thank you for reacting!
Prof, short out from Minnesota where prof is from.... heaven is another great song to react too... the live and in color version
Loveee prof!!
Great reaction ❤
pleaseeeeee listen to MYSELF, by prof it will really teach you about the origins of his trauma. The music video is great!
I was thinking the same thing. Jekyll and Hyde instance. The winters here in Minnesota are rough and long also. Lack of vitamin D is not a good time
Keep up the great work I discovered you like a month ago and I love your videos
I would love for you to react to self talk by parker jack (I think it's using the music of Jocelyn Flores by x)
And also the artist boy with uke
Thanks for taking the time to comment, the support is much appreciated.
Also, great reaction/breakdown !
90% of profs lyrics are double/triple sometimes quadruple entendres so you ultimately were right on both interpretations 🫡
You need to listen to Tough Boy .. it explains alot
Heres a song I think you should check you it's called "When we were 16" by Rxseboy
Please do in my head by juice wrld
I think his mother has mental health issues."Papa say better bring someone to be safe” his sister “it ain’t going to change, stay in your lane” walking on eggshells? I think his father died early and maybe the family had to endure an unstable mum in poverty?
You should react to Witt Lowry - Last letter
“Mgk -Glass house”next please
Yes! I definitely need to do another MGK!
Has anyone told him to listen to myself yet?
React to an unreleased song “Cupids Carcass”.-juiceWrld or “who shot cupid”.
