    Edited: some of these comments makes me realize why there’s so much HATE going on in the world!! Some things people are commenting are just petty and if you don’t like what others are saying aka God Bless America (which I NEVER once said Tom was from America btw) please just scroll on!! We wonder why our world is going to crap! It’s sad!!!

      The answer is the question he claims both sides are woke and miss leading yet he picked a side. He's a hypocrite that wants your vote right. Your vote should be eliminated period, neither side wants us to rise neither side wants us to gain anything in life, he's a poser, he just says stuff that we like so we keep coming back, the lyrics are there his style ain't tho, he's calling out the government even tho he's on there side 😂 got you fooled tho​@@pamiam8908

      Constitution doesn't afford people the right to not be offended. Freedom is being able to say what people don't like to hear. I know words do not bother us, but they sure trigger libs. Many are different from us, because mentally a lot of them are still children. As we know most children are affected by names. That is how the term snowflakes came to be. That's our indoctrination system for ya, raising volatile soy boys and militant mental patients.

It seems we are going in reverse. Today, white people are blamed for something they never did in their generation, kids are shamed for their whiteness, and it's going to foments a spirit of resentment and division that will possibly take us back to the way we were before, leading to another civil war.

      Same with my mom dude. She's much more of a gospel music, but she really digs Tom's vibe and his music. Even the stuff that other "Christians" misconstrue as Tom himself being satanic or whatever, she sees right to the core of what he's spitting and it's awesome. Because she's actually a Christian, and doesn't look for demons in people, she looks for God. And tries to inspire that in others. Spot on comment. HOGtheArmy, HOG4Life brother. God bless.

      If been writing music on and off for about a decade. I've had tons of people compliment my writing and tell me to actually go further then just writing.
      But I must agree. Of course anyone is gonna understand he's lyrically amazing. But for those of us who write rap and know bar structures and rythme schemes. It's even more impressive and it leads one to push themselves to match his talent

    Just listened to Names! Stirring and sharp as truth!
    I’m 70, a retired teacher, and I heard about you while listening to Michael Knowles. Your music is brave and kind at the same time. You are a poet of the old, old school-you speak of courage through music.
    My favorite line in Names is, “and I hope you find the Lord” because in Christ we will find our only salvation.
    God bless you!🙏❤️🥰

      100% equality would eliminate compassion in humanity.
      When everyone is equal, you'd no longer feel the need for others and they'd no longer feel the need for you.

    Never have I ever seen an artist so talented and with such organic reach, be so ignored by the gatekeepers of the cultural institutions.
    I'm sure that's just a coincidence and cannot possibly be the result of a system desperately trying to work out how to deal with someone like this.
    Keep doing your thing man.
    I hope your name goes down in history with the other iconic figures who fought to bring liberty to the people.

I only have 1 music playlist I created and it's every song Tom has dropped on youtube. Nothing else, just because I only really listen to music by myself while I'm working and Tom has a way that inspires me to go hard on my passion.

    By far the best rapper out there in my opinion. There isn’t even anyone to compare you too. Your songs talk about real things going on and you use nothing but facts to break it down. Way more than just lyrical rap! Keep up the great work man! Your already big but you will only continue to grow! Thank you Tom!
