Song order to catch the whole story: 1. Intro 2. Mansion 3. Intro 2 4. Therapy Session 5. How Could You Leave Us 6. Intro 3 7. Outro 8. Outcast 9. Why Highly recommend you go in order. You'll get more from the songs if you do. All his songs are amazing tho. Nice reaction man.
Nf:Nate Feurstein Cage:escaping his thoughts Shopping cart with balloons: burdens he still carries Lady on bench: mom who overdosed Hope that clears everything up Yes I got this from another comment fight me
Also the reason he is so alone is because he is the outcast 2 all of the other rising ‘rappers’ which links to the cage which is from the music video outcast
I think since the tint went lighter and he got white clothes it might mean he is accepting the person he is or is becoming happy with himself idk though
His music is just different, he doesn't curse, his beat selection is different from most other rap songs, his music has a lot of tie ins from his past songs/ albumsand it's all in all real emotion evoking music
@@idonotexist_ do you feel better after saying all that? I mentioned it because I've never commented on anything on TH-cam before and it is pretty nice when people agree with your perspective enough to leave a like as a nod of agreement. For someone who feels alone a lot, it's nice not feeling alone once in a while. Something that means nothing to you can mean the world to someone else. No need to be disrespectful.
AMEN This is what I love about nf and his fans. I’ve never an artist attract such a large number of just straight up good people. And people with actual loyalty and dedication in a time when those things are essentially non-existent. It’s just really nice to be able to feel like your a part of something with actual morals.
Been a fan of logic for years ...and been a fan of Nf since the NF Ep...have u heard Logic new album? Only 4 good songs...let's see how many good songs are on nf album...lol
Bro, I’ve watched about 30 reactions to this song because 1, I love it and 2, I love hearing the different opinions of it. But I have to say, your reaction and dissection of the song and video is by far the best out there. A well earned sub from me. Looking forward to what you put out next... AJ
hell yeah man that means a lot to me! I love breaking down video editing and direction as well...adds something new I haven't seen on other channels...welcome to the fam!
When he says “his parents, ya know when things weren’t as hard” man I laughed and I shouldn’t have. NF by far has had one of the toughest lives I’ve known of. His parents divorced, his moms boyfriend beat him, Mom overdosed and died when he was young. He is such a powerful and strong person.
MGK also has a though life, Homeless at 16, single dad and addict at 19 I think. Mom left him when he was 9. Bullied, mentally abused etc. Murder attempts
11:58 when he says that the swing represents “the older times when he was younger and things weren’t as hard”... down this journey of NF he’a going to quickly find out that might not be true 😅 Welcome to the NF grind!
Sadly, the lady on the swing is his mom who died from a pill overdose. 😓 This guy's life has never been easy, but he's a genius with a heart that wants to figure things out. He's here for a reason. ❤️
Bro 2.5 seconds in and this man already understands and is breaking down the story even though it's his first time ever hearing him like yassss I love people like this
@@jcorn2324 very good song, but only really referenced in outro so not necessarily needed until outro. Also that song can turn people off if heard too early
Hip hop is all about street cred and sorry this boy won't cut it, if it was all about music the hip hop community would of welcomed him with open arms 🤔
I love the fact this is actually a good reaction channel, knows what's going on talks about every lyric rather than just sitting and just watching the video, keep it up!!
Broooooooo!!! I LOVE YOUR BREAKDOWN!! Been watching your eminem breakdowns and soooooo glad you hopped on the NF journey. You will not be disappointed with him. Enjoy the ride and watch your subs blow! More NF bro!
Bro I subbed to you cuz you compared him to Hopsin and not Eminem 🤣 Fr tho, have fun with this journey cuz he's one of the realest artists around right now...also one of the best.
If you want deep and inspirational music, you found the artist to react to! Since you are new to NF, there is a ton of music for you to react to and it will be a true reaction which you do a great job! Looking forward to this possible NF journey with you!
I think the cart is his “prison” bc in his perception album he had a cage on stage so the cart is the movable version of that. And at the end of the song he crawls into it
This is easily my favorite rap reaction channel. Grateful to be introduced to this one. I took the white suit guys kinda like people wearing “bunny suits”. They still had their issues but because of their ppe they didn’t have to deal with it. NF out there in street clothes fighting the fight and at the end they give him the option to insulate or continue to deal with his issues.
Love the video. Knowing absolutely nothing about NF you were very perceptive and found more relateable lyrics than other videos with youtubers that have followed NF for a long time.
For real, this is by far one of the best reaction vids to this song I've seen. Especially since you've never heard him before. Super impressive and I learned a lot too. Thanks man, new subscriber, and notification gang!
No drugs, no alcohol, no women, no cars. Pure Rap. NF is changing the game. btw the people in the background are symbolism for other people who have only little burdens or have let go of their dark past. As you'll see in the "Leave me Alone" video is the sequel to this one. Nat is still holding onto all of his past and trying to hide his pain behind the black smile. The black balloons represent his anxiety and depression. This album where this track comes from is an evolution of change.
I wasn't sure how i felt about all the pauses at first but I gotta say you interpreted the song and video to a T! Better than anyone else i've watched react to this song! Love the vibes man keep doing your thing!
Broooo so happy I've found such a detailed reaction. People mostly forget the about relationship between the song and the video but you tie the lyrics and the visuals so profoundly. Got a well-earned sub from me !
I'm a big NF fan, and I just discovered you off of this video. I really enjoy your perspective and the way you break stuff down. I'll sub, and I look forward to more NF reactions! 🔥😁
Talking about the swings: "reminiscing of older times. Maybe this was the swings his parents had when he was younger when things weren't as hard as they are now." My friend you got a long ways ahead of you in the Nate Train. P.S. you did a VERY VERY good job reacting to this video. Definitely gained a subscriber.
I can’t tell you how many reactions I’ve watched about this song, and this one is by far the best. Not only is it a great reaction, but it’s so good seeing people get introduced to NF, without any kind of background. I would be interested to see you do a reaction to this video once you’ve gone through the NF journey, because there’s SOOOO much in this video that relates back to past songs and videos. The cage, the balloons, the swing. It’s so good. I would say, I think you’re off about the people in white. I see it as people who have joy but still have burdens, and the last scene where the person in white give NF white clothing has to do with his Christianity and Christ giving him a new, white and clean outfit. The reason I think it’s Christ, is because the guy has no balloons, no burdens. That’s how I interpreted the video. So stoked to follow you on the NF journey, it’s gonna be great ride!
I just watched 20 reaction videos to this song because I'm an addict to NF's words in this song.... and you kill it in breaking down what's going on. #1 reaction among them all - Just pausing enough to enjoy the intricacies and beauty and truth. Thank you! I'm now following your stuff.
Im assuming the people in white are people who have come to terms with their burdens? They can handle them as they carry their black balloons "neatly" or close to the chest, as where he has them swaying in the wind or doesnt have a grasp on them?! The cart may represent himself...or his life? The clothing handed to him at the end might mean he is on the verge of following in their footsteps!?! Shot in the dark...great reaction! Also hit up NF's remember this track
thats what I love about symbolic videos and art...you can basically form the symbolism around what you think it is based on your life experiences...thats a dope take on it tho!
@@williamknudsen4856 i think the cage signifies his mind, thoughts and emotions. If you watch the video outcast it has the cage. Hes trapped in it aka his own mind/thoughts/emotions. He paints a vivid picture with his words in outcast about said cage.
This is the first time I’ve heard this view from anyone...saying those people are there to make sure he doesn’t ever fully get rid of his burdens...and I LOVE it!!! Genius!!!
1. Notice the cage in the background = song "outcast" 2. Cart/ Black balloons- represent "his burdens" check "why" 3. When said he had to see a therapist = check "therapy session" 4. When he said something "going on in my house" (pointing to his mind)= check "mansion"
thanks man! yeah I try not to be too crazy cuz I know it would come off as try hard...I just be myself and let the editing and commentary try and entertain lol
I like how you said there is not much to break down in terms of lyrics because they are pretty straight forward. That is one of the reasons why NF is my number 1 rapper. I love his music. He doesn't make it a mission for you to understand what's going on. He's a story teller
Very impressed how you caught so much knowing nothing about him. Great job! Looking forward to watching your Nf journey with you. He is a very unique artist extremely deep.
Man, honestly. You are one of my favorite reaction channels to watch. You are very insightful and positive. Very wise as well. Keen mind for hip hop. NF being one of the greats IN MY OPINION and my favorite artist for the last 3 years after I discovered him.
I don't know why I'm watching this again but I am . It's odd that it makes me happy seeing new people loving your reaction and actually appreciating the shit you notice
I come back to this reaction every now and again. It’s the best reaction I’ve seen; you pick up on a lot of the visual metaphors, as well as most of the bars. A big plus is that it’s your first NF song that you’re reacting to, and that’s my favorite reaction video to watch; someone listening to NF for the very first time. Keep it up bro
Anyways, welcome to the NF journey. If you wanna follow the storyline, hit these staple songs in this order: Intro 1 Mansion Wake up Intro 2 Therapy Session How Could You Leave Us Intro 3 Outcast Outro
Cant wait to see your journey of NF man, he tells his story you gotta listen in a certain order because they connect, this is the order if you wanna understand his songs Intro I Mansion Intro II Therapy session How could you leave us Real Intro 3 Outcast No name Let you down Remember this Why Outro Then after those songs you should still check out his other ones theyre all fire 🔥
@@0Abraham16 yeah i know not saying he has to listen to them all, it was just hard to narrow it down since so many of his songs are fire. Yeah i did my best with the order but you probably right if it was messy i was hoping someone would help and correct me
The way you dissected this video (without ever hearing about NF beforehand might I add) is the best I’ve seen for this song. I’m seriously so impressed 💕 you brought up things in your vid that didn’t even cross my mind and I’ve watched this music video over 50+ times already. You got a new sub 😊🙌🏼
Wakey Wakey! lol Welcome to the world that is NF. You can call it a Family, Movement whatever you will but im soo excited for you. I literally never ever comment but just as someone below commented, I too have watched many a reaction to NF. Yours is by far not only the best but the most genuine I've seen yet. Your depth of perception (no pun intended) of every aspect of his art was great. I appreciate the respect and insight you had for not only the lyrical and musical aspect, but also all the symbolism in the visual (and there is sooo much, always is) and you pointed out if not most, all of it. Specific to NF I love to witness peoples first experience of his art. I have been listening to him for about 4 years and still remember mine, I've been hooked ever since. I have to say and i feel bad for admitting it but while watching yours it is the first time i haven't at some point fast forwarded through a persons commentary for whatever reason be it irritation, boredom or just not vibing it. That speaks volumes to me. You have earned not only my respect but, a fan and subscriber. I look forward to watching more from you not only NF but other artists as well. I will def be recommending your reactions to others. I apologize for how wordy and long this is but i had to give props and credit where it is due. (and if those flies are those irritating "fruit flies/gnats" I know of a trap u can make with a soda bottle or water jug that works amazing ;-) .. I felt ur pain 100%) -- Sue
First time watching you and now a fan. I am impressed with the way you broke down this song. Your intuition was on point a verse(s) before you completely knew what was happening. I've seen reaction videos on NF but very few broke down NFs cryptic video message. Thank you... keep up the great reviews.
Nicely dissected! I've watched so many reaction videos to this song and, although I appreciate other reacts and viewpoints - you're the only one I've seen so far who's called out quite this many important points and details that give the song an oceans depth. Thank you!
...This is the best NF reaction ive ever watched ..and i have watched ALOT of NF reactions.. nobody has every painted the picture quite like you did though -this is PERFECT and im so glad i just found this yt channel 😭 subscribed!❤
Yoooo throwback video! You’d have “made it” anyway, but I think NF Journey was what really took your channel subscriber count to the moon. It’s cool to see how things play out! Keep up the great work BOSS! Haha I just watched another of your reactions where you mention how you hate being called hoss or boss.
Best reaction to NF the search by far!!!! Welcome to the journey...NF's faith is as strong as his struggle!! You will not be let down as you go back in NF history!! You are well worth subscribing to just to watch you watch this amazing faithful journey!! I'm in with you!!
i'm so happy these NF fans have found you. Now you should be getting the recognition you deserve to being hands down one of the - if not the - best reactor on youtube. Now i gotta go back to his older stuff that people are suggesting to follow this dude. thx for the reaction and for watching the video all the way to the end - very symbolic
Bro love how you broke down all of this video and your respect for good flow. Other people didn't go into the lyrics enough, not even close compared to yours. And your perspective of never having heard him before makes it all the more real talk, yet you were still nailing the symbolism. I never thought about that camera shake on the best drop!! Well done!
I see the people in white with just a few balloons each, as like how he sees everyone around him like they have their act together and look perfect. Just another visual representation of how feeling outcast feels.
This is the first video I have ever seen of you. Loved the reaction. NF is the man, been to 3 of his live shows. I subbed and really hope you do more NF reactions, you'll be in for one hell of a ride.
@@TheThirdErnest you're getting the saddest one out of the way at least. Theres somewhat of an order to listen to the songs to help you understand references, but based off this reaction I think you'll be fine either way. The bar about "something's going on up in my house" where you knew he was talking about his head, is a reference to his song Mansion. I'm just rambling lmao cant wait to watch it tomorrow.
I love how you go, "It's real music" only a minute into the video. That's literally his motto
I saw you're profile pic and thought there was dirt on my screen.... then I spent a whole minute trying to rub it off 😂😔

Not just that. Real Music is the name of the label.

4. Therapy Session
5. How Could You Leave Us
6. Intro 3
7. Outro
8. Outcast
9. Why

The entire Therapy and Mansion albums?
Leave me alone

Thanks for this, just found him and had no idea about this at all.
Welcome to the NF family, you don’t know what you just discovered

so true
🔥 🔥🔥 i can’t believe some people really knows about him😒
I do I've been a fan sense mansion
Nf:Nate Feurstein
Cage:escaping his thoughts
Shopping cart with balloons: burdens he still carries
Lady on bench: mom who overdosed
Hope that clears everything up
Yes I got this from another comment fight me
his last name is feuerstein lol
Also the reason he is so alone is because he is the outcast 2 all of the other rising ‘rappers’ which links to the cage which is from the music video outcast
Nothing about escaping his thoughts because he is the complete opposite
I think since the tint went lighter and he got white clothes it might mean he is accepting the person he is or is becoming happy with himself idk though
True,true,true,&true,Should I keep going
Yo NF fans are probably best ever. The like to pass knowledge and it’s probably the most positive community. Support all around.
And we are the most savage. I've been slapping with toasts, and been running over NF haters with a dollar store cart...
Moonlight Luna ngl that comment made me laugh
He a "Clean" rapper. lol. Amazing what he can do, and how he raps so clean.
bro ppl talk down on us we all go at them life omg
Which is definitely true and is awesome.
Until Eminem is mentioned and people tend to get their hackles up.
HA :)
"you can call me what you want but never call me forgettable"
Thats a jab at the College kids reacts guy that said he was forgettable
Frick off with your desperate sub channels I think that’s a bit of a reach but I’ll let you have it because I didn’t agree with that guys opinion

I totally agree. I’ve watched them all and your dissection was fire!

Idk I think Eminem got him beat but that's just my opinion
MGK also has a though life, Homeless at 16, single dad and addict at 19 I think. Mom left him when he was 9. Bullied, mentally abused etc. Murder attempts

2. Cart/ Black balloons- represent "his burdens" check "why"
3. When said he had to see a therapist = check "therapy session"
4. When he said something "going on in my house" (pointing to his mind)= check "mansion"
perfect...thanks for that will check all those
I love coming back and seeing where the nf journey started for you after seeing you react to so many of his songs
Nf is the best rapper man. His shows are so hype dude such great energy
would love to see him in concert...the vibe just seems like hes got crazy energy on stage
@@TheThirdErnest Hes starting to tour.. get yo tickets.
He is REAL. THANKS FOR SHARING
Holy shit dude, I have watched so mant reactions on all of his songs and you...by far.. are the best NF reactor i have ever seen. ONE OF US..ONE OF US
I come back here from time to time watch him fall in love with NF music.
I have watched lots of reactions from NF but yours are by far the best. Keep up the great work!
Dude, your analysis is the best I've heard of all these reactions! Subbed to you man, nothing over the top either, but still engaging.
thanks man! yeah I try not to be too crazy cuz I know it would come off as try hard...I just be myself and let the editing and commentary try and entertain lol
I like how you said there is not much to break down in terms of lyrics because they are pretty straight forward. That is one of the reasons why NF is my number 1 rapper. I love his music. He doesn't make it a mission for you to understand what's going on. He's a story teller
Bro you just opened up a whole mf saga. Dope reaction. In musical and non-lyrical terms, a cadence is a few chords that end a bar.
Bro you’re amazing at analyzing his music, please record all your reactions to his music. You got my sub.
Very impressed how you caught so much knowing nothing about him. Great job! Looking forward to watching your Nf journey with you. He is a very unique artist extremely deep.
tigerbankston thank you! And depth and real music is what this channels family is here for!
Man, honestly. You are one of my favorite reaction channels to watch. You are very insightful and positive. Very wise as well. Keen mind for hip hop. NF being one of the greats IN MY OPINION and my favorite artist for the last 3 years after I discovered him.
All i gotta say man, to understand the Cage in the background you have to watch the Outcast video🤘
I don't know why I'm watching this again but I am . It's odd that it makes me happy seeing new people loving your reaction and actually appreciating the shit you notice
I think you should breakdown his song "WHY"
its coming...I promise you that
I come back to this reaction every now and again. It’s the best reaction I’ve seen; you pick up on a lot of the visual metaphors, as well as most of the bars. A big plus is that it’s your first NF song that you’re reacting to, and that’s my favorite reaction video to watch; someone listening to NF for the very first time. Keep it up bro
Appreciate the reaction! The best reactions around.
thanks man. appreciate you being here with the fam!
Anyways, welcome to the NF journey. If you wanna follow the storyline, hit these staple songs in this order:
Intro 1
Mansion
Wake up
Intro 2
Therapy Session
How Could You Leave Us
Intro 3
Outcast
Outro
and Why after that
Cant wait to see your journey of NF man, he tells his story you gotta listen in a certain order because they connect, this is the order if you wanna understand his songs
Intro I
Mansion
Intro II
Therapy session
How could you leave us
Real
Intro 3
Outcast
No name
Let you down
Remember this
Why
Outro
Then after those songs you should still check out his other ones theyre all fire 🔥
S F ehh..some of those...but that’s not as many as you would think.Thats a bit stretching...and the Oder is very out of place
@@0Abraham16 yeah i know not saying he has to listen to them all, it was just hard to narrow it down since so many of his songs are fire. Yeah i did my best with the order but you probably right if it was messy i was hoping someone would help and correct me
Not to mention i may or may not have chucked a couple random ones in there because they're fire
ive gotten so many lists so ill piece the most common ones together and yall can watch the journey unfold!
@@TheThirdErnest cant wait to watch man this guy is so talented
Love when the old Ernest videos pop up, just before your first NF reaction is when I started watching your vids. Apprectiate the content man!
5:33 “I like how REAL it is”
The way you dissected this video (without ever hearing about NF beforehand might I add) is the best I’ve seen for this song. I’m seriously so impressed 💕 you brought up things in your vid that didn’t even cross my mind and I’ve watched this music video over 50+ times already. You got a new sub 😊🙌🏼
Ooo this channel does justice to NF’s brilliance
Wakey Wakey! lol Welcome to the world that is NF. You can call it a Family, Movement whatever you will but im soo excited for you. I literally never ever comment but just as someone below commented, I too have watched many a reaction to NF. Yours is by far not only the best but the most genuine I've seen yet. Your depth of perception (no pun intended) of every aspect of his art was great. I appreciate the respect and insight you had for not only the lyrical and musical aspect, but also all the symbolism in the visual (and there is sooo much, always is) and you pointed out if not most, all of it. Specific to NF I love to witness peoples first experience of his art. I have been listening to him for about 4 years and still remember mine, I've been hooked ever since. I have to say and i feel bad for admitting it but while watching yours it is the first time i haven't at some point fast forwarded through a persons commentary for whatever reason be it irritation, boredom or just not vibing it. That speaks volumes to me. You have earned not only my respect but, a fan and subscriber. I look forward to watching more from you not only NF but other artists as well. I will def be recommending your reactions to others. I apologize for how wordy and long this is but i had to give props and credit where it is due.
(and if those flies are those irritating "fruit flies/gnats" I know of a trap u can make with a soda bottle or water jug that works amazing ;-) .. I felt ur pain 100%) -- Sue
I must say, for this being your first video of his, you really picked up on so much!
First time watching you and now a fan. I am impressed with the way you broke down this song. Your intuition was on point a verse(s) before you completely knew what was happening. I've seen reaction videos on NF but very few broke down NFs cryptic video message. Thank you... keep up the great reviews.
NF is the Mike Ness of rap.
"Wherever I went, I was sure to find myself there"
I love this
Nicely dissected! I've watched so many reaction videos to this song and, although I appreciate other reacts and viewpoints - you're the only one I've seen so far who's called out quite this many important points and details that give the song an oceans depth. Thank you!
What a great breakdown....you caught so much that others miss.....new sub for NF
NF is always worth it 🤘🏻🖤🎶🤘🏻🎵💙🎵🖤🎶🤘🏻🎶💙🎶🖤🎵💙🎶🤘🏻🎶💙🎵🖤🎶🤘🏻🎶🤘🏻🖤🤘🏻🎶🖤🎵🤘🏻🎶💙🎶🖤🎶🤘🏻🎶🖤🎵💙🎶🖤
finally u react to NF,damn boy
ya boi been slacking like some dockers pants lol
Listening to this again over two years later is just so interestingly prophetic!
Damn bro, that shirt. Haven't seen someone sporting an N'sync shirt since the 90s.
Edit: love your breakdown of the song. New sub here.
...This is the best NF reaction ive ever watched ..and i have watched ALOT of NF reactions.. nobody has every painted the picture quite like you did though -this is PERFECT and im so glad i just found this yt channel 😭 subscribed!❤
Listen to Outro, Intro, Intro 2, Intro 3, Mansion, Therapy Session
Yoooo throwback video!
You’d have “made it” anyway, but I think NF Journey was what really took your channel subscriber count to the moon.
It’s cool to see how things play out! Keep up the great work BOSS!
Haha I just watched another of your reactions where you mention how you hate being called hoss or boss.
It was your Trump Biden ERB video.. couldn’t fuckin remember! Man, I’m off TH-cam for the night lol! Anyway man take care.
So cool to go back to this video after the release of the Clouds mixtape 💯
Yeah its cool
Best reaction to NF the search by far!!!! Welcome to the journey...NF's faith is as strong as his struggle!! You will not be let down as you go back in NF history!! You are well worth subscribing to just to watch you watch this amazing faithful journey!! I'm in with you!!
You got to do ( Why ) next by NF !
oh theres a lot of nf coming now bro don't you worry lol
Alright bro thank you and you haven't seen nothing yet until you see all his music videos and also just the audio lyrics 🙏 !
@@TheThirdErnest start from the beginning for yourself. Why is the video directly before search
Ernest you really know what you're talking about. Easily one of the best reactions I've ever watched.
Bro you have the best production of a reactor I have ever seen. Your knowledge is great and the way you react. New sub here
i'm so happy these NF fans have found you. Now you should be getting the recognition you deserve to being hands down one of the - if not the - best reactor on youtube. Now i gotta go back to his older stuff that people are suggesting to follow this dude. thx for the reaction and for watching the video all the way to the end - very symbolic
"When things weren't as hard as they are now."
MMMM, NO.
They were pretty hard.
Bro love how you broke down all of this video and your respect for good flow. Other people didn't go into the lyrics enough, not even close compared to yours. And your perspective of never having heard him before makes it all the more real talk, yet you were still nailing the symbolism. I never thought about that camera shake on the best drop!! Well done!
6:55 Ernest shouts out Hopsin... later Hopsin appears in Lost... dope.
I see the people in white with just a few balloons each, as like how he sees everyone around him like they have their act together and look perfect. Just another visual representation of how feeling outcast feels.
I feel like nf’s lyrics are so relatable and down to earth
This is the first video I have ever seen of you. Loved the reaction. NF is the man, been to 3 of his live shows. I subbed and really hope you do more NF reactions, you'll be in for one hell of a ride.
Parker t one coming to you scheduled in 6 hours! Thanks for the sub man and welcome to the fam!
@@TheThirdErnest you're getting the saddest one out of the way at least. Theres somewhat of an order to listen to the songs to help you understand references, but based off this reaction I think you'll be fine either way. The bar about "something's going on up in my house" where you knew he was talking about his head, is a reference to his song Mansion. I'm just rambling lmao cant wait to watch it tomorrow.
This reaction was so good.
thanks man!
