The black smile is the fake smile he is forced to wear everyday and pretending to he someone he's not. Black balloons = his burdens Black clothes represents how he feels isolated from happy people White clothes with balloons = happy people that still carry around burdens You guys should really listen to his interview he did at Lollapalooza this year. It's on TH-cam and it will explains some things for you guys!!
Faith K also the putting on white over black is showing that you always happy and underneath he’s not. he diecides not to putt on the fake white happiness and everyone else is . when he hands the ballooon to the white person he is putting all of his burdens out in the open as a happy person
Samuel 88888 it’s awful, because you want to do things and be productive but you can’t, and when you told yourself that your fears aren’t real the thought don’t want to leave. It’s exhausting 😒 but we need to keep going and to be positive, because we could be worse
I am also an introvert with ocd...not to mention a workaholic with a need for perfection. It's definitely a struggle, but I've learned how to live with all of it. But to be famous too? I personally don't think I could balance it all....and that is one of the many reasons I love and respect NF.
Nichole S Same here. All of the things are hard for a normal person, can’t imagine how bad it is for a famous person. Sadly I haven’t found a way how I can live with all of the things. It’s really hard for me.
Dude me too. I was a metal singer for nearly 14 years only to end up all by myself. So I'm trying to work on my rapping so I can get out all my struggles into lyrics.
@@jasenyoungs1389 cool man. Music in general is a great way to express yourself. Some people dont know other way to other the music. I dont see any content on the page got anything out. I just started releasing my stuff about a month ago. Check it out if you get a moment. But when you release some stuff let me know man
Your dad is so cool and down to earth. He understands people and has such an open mind. You're lucky to have these moments with him. I didnt get these opportunities with my father.
I think the white clothes represent people who know they have issues and are actively working to overcome their issues. Each of them are at different levels. Some still have balloons, some don’t. Some have the fake smile and others are having it removed. We all know that NF believes in God and references Him throughout the album. In the Search he was given white clothes while searching for the map to hope. I think he is ready to start handing some of his burdens to God at the end which is why we only got to see an outstretched hand from behind a curtain. I love how long the line is....The ultimate Healer.
When he brought up fame. He was talking about Eminem. “Here are the symptoms, couldn’t miss ‘em, wrestle with ‘em then I penny flip ‘em, bounce ‘em back up nowhere, you should get some, who you dissin? Move the switch and don’t come in the kitchen, you should listen, Cookin records for my hands are blisterin” then he starts by saying “ whole consensus, flow tremendous, no apprentice, no incentive, show intensive, so possessive, TONE AGGRESSIVE”. These are shots at Eminem. NF used the same flow as Kamikaze by Eminem.
I never comment on anything but felt i had to i really like u guys videos. All i can say is i have watch him grow to fame and even if he had no fame his music has saved me more then once knowing someone else understands the mental health struggle.
He talks much more about his doubts in the song Let Me Go. In this song the parts where he was being told his numbers are overlooked was Doubt trying to put him down about his process.
I've been watching your reactions for a while now. Never looked at how many subs you had until today. I'm surprised you don't have more. Your reactions and thoughtfulness are refreshing, so you've got at least one new subscriber. Keep up the great work.
You two are awesome! There are some many of us carrying our ballons and the fake smile. So many can relate to the REAL, everyone surviving the struggle we call life keep your heads up. God bless
Reminds me of Tyler Joesph of Twenty One Pilots. He has a similar message. His lyrics are so insanely good and he’s authentic as well. I dig how they are vulnerable and share their struggles with the world in hopes of improving it for others. They don’t have it all figured out....none of us do...but I can relate to some of the faith based themes and questions.
I love y’all reactions because you give us to different prospectives which is what we need more from the world with love and compassion for everyone God Bless everyone!!!!
In "Therapy Session" he stated that he's slowly letting go a few of his dark feelings at a time. So at the ending of this video he gave two balloons away as a meaning he's letting go of some more doubts . So I believe the balloons is what he has left of the doubtfull emotions he still has buried in his mansion (meaning, in his head) Stating in the song "The search" he said "filled balloons are full of doubts"
I think in the 3rd scene when fame call the old man was an older version of himself, that he hated. Then he walks away after he fights that internal struggle. NF’s symbolism is very real and his use of imagery is very powerful.
Love these videos! You guys are are so insightful and love your takes. Your dad is brilliant. Please make more!! Would love to hear your reaction to change by NF
I just found your Chanel today and I really enjoy your content! Thank you for it! The only thing I would say is NF albums are like books. The best way to get a great understanding of the story is to listen starting from the beginning through now in order. His videos are the same each one builds on the next just as his songs do. And it truly is like listening/watching a story unfold.
I love what your doing and cant stop watching how open minded you always are.i tried to do this with my dad and it did not work5 years ago and it did not end well at all.
I originally thought that the people in white in The Search were people in the industry trying to get NF to conform to the industry standards now that he has left his cage. But I think the people in white are the fans that follow him and have overcome their issues or in the process. Some that had put on a fake smile are in line getting it wiped off. There are those in line to change into the white close which could be associated with Change the song. There's the scene with the old man in the like abandoned building that's still got all his balloons and is wearing black that looks helpless and like his burdens kept him there. Then you see the people in white pushing NF in his cart to a place where he eventually gets out and takes two of his balloons to lighten his load.. I think the people pushing him are his fans that want to see him get help. They are all behind him which could be symbolic of how his fans actually are... Always behind him, there to help push him forward.
I enjoy hearing both of you go back and forth on music like this, I have nobody in my circle that is religious so it’s interesting to hear that point of view 👏🏻
I believe nf is living right he just shares his struggles openly with everyone honestly and everybodys going thru these things for god too but hes honest admits sin even just to help others thru
You guys look like you have a great relationship. I tried connecting with my father through music (hip hop, with him being absolute rock), and it just didn't work. Im definitely jealous. With that being said, I've never been a very religious person, but if my pastor listened and actually paid attention to NF, I could definitely be caught in the building on a Sunday.
Theres a video for it, NF has an older song called until I die, you can hear how strong his Christian Influence is in that song, I think sometimes he battles with staying true to his Relationship with the lord and pleasing the world...Pastor should react to that song even with no music video...stay blessed y’all
I wish NF had a pastor like you to talk to. Maybe he could get rid of some of his burdens and self loathing. In fact, I wish everyone had 1 of you in their life!
Every single i hear i hear God in it. This to me is about his doubt toward God but being different and lonely bc he believes but he still has basic human sin and doubt
This hit me hard. It's one of my biggest fears to have a panic attack in public all you want is to get away and he left alone. No one wants to freak out in public.
This song is ultimately about his struggle with wanting to be normal but also not wanting to be normal. "I hate to be different but hate to be normal". It's about the strain that it puts on his psyche and the feeling like he is being pulled in two different directions.
Black smile i believe is just a mock to a real genuine & sincere one. Like when one just goes on n bout in the wrld putting on fake smiles when in reality we feel pretty shit Nd life just sucks
He says in the one verse " I hate to be normal but hate to be different " I think he is in a never ending battle to find a balance between the 2 while also dealing with being famous and making sure he doesnt lose his core values
So here’s my theory The black balloons represent NF music 🎶 And by him giving it to the ppl dressed in white representing what ppl with a bad state of mentality Illness wear in Asylums... is him showing that thru his music ppl who are going thru depressing moments or suicidal thoughts can express theme selfs and let some pain out and in some way have happier moments as a result of releasing some pain out. That why you see a line with people with balloons waiting to get a fake smile on . Idk that’s what I see
Check out there website! thyalmighty.com?aff=2

The black smile is the fake smile he is forced to wear everyday and pretending to he someone he's not.
Black balloons = his burdens
Black clothes represents how he feels isolated from happy people
White clothes with balloons = happy people that still carry around burdens
You guys should really listen to his interview he did at Lollapalooza this year. It's on TH-cam and it will explains some things for you guys!!
U sound like a fan
How did ya know? 😂😂😂
I can make a connect . its connected to therapy session
Faith K also the putting on white over black is showing that you always happy and underneath he’s not. he diecides not to putt on the fake white happiness and everyone else is . when he hands the ballooon to the white person he is putting all of his burdens out in the open as a happy person
Lane the person hes handing the balloons to is god..
A famous introvert with ocd....I can't imagine what that struggle is like.
Nichole S I do
I can relate to having ocd and being an introvert, and I can imagine it’s prolly hard to be famous, with all this
Samuel 88888 it’s awful, because you want to do things and be productive but you can’t, and when you told yourself that your fears aren’t real the thought don’t want to leave. It’s exhausting 😒 but we need to keep going and to be positive, because we could be worse

Please check out CHANGE from NF of course, I think a lot of us would like to see a reaction to that one! Great video as always :)
I was gonna suggest this.
I wanna see this pastor react to the whole journey!
I broke down during Change because I'm right there
NF is a story teller i hope to express myself in my music like him.💯
Dude me too. I was a metal singer for nearly 14 years only to end up all by myself. So I'm trying to work on my rapping so I can get out all my struggles into lyrics.

@@jiovanneb5582 Yah i don't have anything yet but I'm happy to hear your stuff!
“Time to listen” pastor catching bars!
He doesn’t caught them but that would be awesome
Your dad is so cool and down to earth. He understands people and has such an open mind. You're lucky to have these moments with him. I didnt get these opportunities with my father.
Absolutely agree with coolness meter your dad Is amazing happy you got him as a dad.
You and your dad should review the whole album, love you guys, keep it up!
Beautifully said. Authentic. Mother of 5 here. I enjoy his music I can relate 100% its clean, unique and well Real. Kids love NF to. 😉
I cried at the part where he said he would release his burdens but too afraid .. nice to see someone put our feelings into words .. God Bless !

I agree
Same that's is what it means to me personally

Damn I never realized this. That’s awesome
It's "Brought some back up? No well you should get some." and "Mood is switchin' don't come in the kitchen."
I think he says "Cookin' record four, my hands are blisterin"
Hey Mann can ya please do “Nate” by NF it’s really good!
Yes!
I never comment on anything but felt i had to i really like u guys videos. All i can say is i have watch him grow to fame and even if he had no fame his music has saved me more then once knowing someone else understands the mental health struggle.
He talks much more about his doubts in the song Let Me Go. In this song the parts where he was being told his numbers are overlooked was Doubt trying to put him down about his process.
NF is a great influence for these children!! Love watching his life slowly chage in his lyrics! Your Dad is awesome btw!!
Also when he hands the balloons to one guy at the end is him giving up some of his burdens to God
Correct! Often overlooked by people who react to this video
Where was god
How you gonna say that he ‘gave them to Yahweh’ ? He handed it to another human. Come onnnn , dude; you’re stretching.
@@tracyhicks7027 the white vs the black is what a feel the stretch to be
This was great! Really loved hearing what you 2 had to say! I hope there is more to come.
Much love to all!!
I've been watching your reactions for a while now. Never looked at how many subs you had until today. I'm surprised you don't have more. Your reactions and thoughtfulness are refreshing, so you've got at least one new subscriber. Keep up the great work.
NF Thinking And My Stress
You two are awesome! There are some many of us carrying our ballons and the fake smile. So many can relate to the REAL, everyone surviving the struggle we call life keep your heads up. God bless
I love your NF reactions! You always have great insight. I wish there were more!
NF, one of my favorites, real life, honesty, pure hip hop
I enjoyed this reaction added some perspective I hadn't thought about! Good job!
I’ve literally listened to this song so many times and never get sick of it
Glad you all are doing reactions. Especially after what was said a few weeks ago. Keep it up guys. 🔥🔥
Reminds me of Tyler Joesph of Twenty One Pilots. He has a similar message. His lyrics are so insanely good and he’s authentic as well. I dig how they are vulnerable and share their struggles with the world in hopes of improving it for others. They don’t have it all figured out....none of us do...but I can relate to some of the faith based themes and questions.
I love y’all reactions because you give us to different prospectives which is what we need more from the world with love and compassion for everyone God Bless everyone!!!!

React to Start Over - Flame ft NF
I really enjoyed this! I liked hearing what y'all had to say and it made me think a little bit more about this song too
You and your dad are very intelligent, I enjoy your videos very much. Your dads insight is amazing. I wish I could be apart of his worship.
Love you guys keep it UP!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Great review, so insightful! Enjoyed your perspective on NF hanging up on fame and proclaiming who he is, your Dad picks up a lot of detail.
I think he's talking about his fear, like him telling his fear to leave him alone.
Listen to All I Have by NF.. he mentions the Lord a lot and it's a great song.
I think in the 3rd scene when fame call the old man was an older version of himself, that he hated. Then he walks away after he fights that internal struggle. NF’s symbolism is very real and his use of imagery is very powerful.
I SO LOVE YALL!!!

I love what your doing and cant stop watching how open minded you always are.i tried to do this with my dad and it did not work5 years ago and it did not end well at all.
I like what your father had to say about listening my pastor always said God gave you two years and one mouth for a reason
I originally thought that the people in white in The Search were people in the industry trying to get NF to conform to the industry standards now that he has left his cage.
But I think the people in white are the fans that follow him and have overcome their issues or in the process. Some that had put on a fake smile are in line getting it wiped off.

I think the people pushing him are his fans that want to see him get help. They are all behind him which could be symbolic of how his fans actually are... Always behind him, there to help push him forward.
that old man was symoblic for NFs fear of never being able to get rid of his burdens and mental illness
Good view !! 😇
More NF please. Love your thoughts. Thank you
well done! it took me a handful of times to even come close to understanding what was up
I enjoy hearing both of you go back and forth on music like this, I have nobody in my circle that is religious so it’s interesting to hear that point of view 👏🏻
I love the reactions.
That was a good catch that he was proclaiming his authenticity.... Could you react to intro 3 please please please!
Yes yes yes. Like Brene Brown, reading Daring Greatly right now. Love your dad!
I believe nf is living right he just shares his struggles openly with everyone honestly and everybodys going thru these things for god too but hes honest admits sin even just to help others thru
Love the reaction guys. Keep up the good work and cant wait to see another rap reaction haha.
Y’all rock!
💯 REALMUSIC 🔥
lovd your reaction vidz, do more NF
Really articulate reaction I loved it
Special two summers ago, when NF let you down song was playing on ever radio station it shot him to fame
You guys look like you have a great relationship. I tried connecting with my father through music (hip hop, with him being absolute rock), and it just didn't work. Im definitely jealous. With that being said, I've never been a very religious person, but if my pastor listened and actually paid attention to NF, I could definitely be caught in the building on a Sunday.
Soooo cool ur dad is getting this well done sir well done
Theres a video for it, NF has an older song called until I die, you can hear how strong his Christian Influence is in that song, I think sometimes he battles with staying true to his Relationship with the lord and pleasing the world...Pastor should react to that song even with no music video...stay blessed y’all
Love your breakdowns and insight on his songs. Obviously it's subjective but I feel like you hit the nail on the head on your takes. Very intuitive.
He's putting on a smile
amazing persective from your dad on nf's music considering hes only herd a small part and still understands what hes hearing
The black smile is a fake smile that is basically showing that he is trying to act happy when he’s not inside
I wish NF had a pastor like you to talk to. Maybe he could get rid of some of his burdens and self loathing. In fact, I wish everyone had 1 of you in their life!
Every single i hear i hear God in it. This to me is about his doubt toward God but being different and lonely bc he believes but he still has basic human sin and doubt
The smile represents how always needs to put a happy face when he does his songs and feed the monster but when he's relaxing he takes the smile away.
I really like ur reacting videos with ur dad, especially if it's about nf
This hit me hard. It's one of my biggest fears to have a panic attack in public all you want is to get away and he left alone. No one wants to freak out in public.
Erybody in our home loves NF and will Prob hear Start Over before they leave here
Haha NF responded to you that's amazing
You both should react to change and Nate!! They say so much more.
The smile is what he shows to the real world
“Leave me alone” is to the voices in his head and his self doubts.
This song is ultimately about his struggle with wanting to be normal but also not wanting to be normal. "I hate to be different but hate to be normal". It's about the strain that it puts on his psyche and the feeling like he is being pulled in two different directions.
Black smile i believe is just a mock to a real genuine & sincere one. Like when one just goes on n bout in the wrld putting on fake smiles when in reality we feel pretty shit Nd life just sucks
So, I actually really enjoy what you've got going on here. Keep up the content, yeah?
I definitely agree on checking out change by NF I feel like it's one that you would definitely like to do a video to and you did good feedback
Yo i love NF, do a react about How Could You Leave Us, is one of his best songs IMO, he even cried on a concert singing it
God bless
Pastor nailed it with the painted smile
The black smile is about the fake smile he puts on to the world but inside he feels the words he says
Great Reaction and insight on NF. React to the song Nate from NF new album the search
Listen to remember this by nf great song
To understand this song you have to follow a jurney he has taken us from his mansion album
True
They need so much more research because they're missing out on a lot.
You should definitely do therapy session by NF I know it’s a older one but I feel like y’all could see how he’s fought this and is getting better
The balloons are his burdens that he carries around in his cart that he takes everywhere with him.
This was entertaining 👍🏻
the truth of what this all comes to. the burdens "Therapy Session" by NF
I'm a really big fan of NF
He says in the one verse " I hate to be normal but hate to be different " I think he is in a never ending battle to find a balance between the 2 while also dealing with being famous and making sure he doesnt lose his core values
Y'all should do remember this by NF
Another great one to check out is All I have by NF. And if you can check out another artist named Ivan B
Intro III goes a lot in depth in this revelation yall gotten
The black smile is putting on a fake smile when he is hurting inside
React to Why Did You Leave us and Let You Down by NF!!!!!
True and All I Have
Nf fan right here
Therapy session nf🙏🙏🙏🙏
A reaction video
So here’s my theory
The black balloons represent NF music 🎶
And by him giving it to the ppl dressed in white representing what ppl with a bad state of mentality Illness wear in Asylums... is him showing that thru his music ppl who are going thru depressing moments or suicidal thoughts can express theme selfs and let some pain out and in some way have happier moments as a result of releasing some pain out.
That why you see a line with people with balloons waiting to get a fake smile on .
Idk that’s what I see
You should do Change from the album
DO NF change.
