LayedBakDFR how are you doing
Not as good as The search but still a Hard pass🔥🔥🔥
Glad you here already!
Thanks for getting this vid out this fast I so hyped to see your reaction
i knew you would drop this only hours after it was released
Most Rappers: sits on gold and makes trash
NF: sits on trash and makes gold
saw this on every other Nf video ever
frank yea people like dick eating Issa new thing😂
Bro
pretty much
👏👏👏👏👏
Imagine looking out your window and seeing NF taking out your garbage
I'd fucking die
@@azizella2778 was gonna say same but u beat me to it. I'd give him my trash n ask for an autograph while trying not to bug out
I would run out and just be like pleaaaaaaasssseeeeeeee notice me picture please
Well most of these replies mean that you all don’t know who NF is cause in therapy session he said he was talking pictures of people that don’t know him so but I’m not trying to be annoying it’s just constructed criticism.
I would take the garbage out my self and let that king sit down
Who else got Goosebumps on that transition?
Me dude
wait wtf i thought i was the only one
I got mad goosebumps at his show last month he has the music video in the background
Which one lol😂
Nvrmnd I feel it lol
Fr tho 🥶🥶
I really love the way he displays the "lower" class jobs and still keeps following his dream to breaktrough with his music. This guy is a great artist and a beautifull person all together. I found out about this dude a couple of months ago, on that day i listened about 40 tracks nonstop i never had a rapper or a artist i had that with in a long time. This dude moves people. Peace from Holland
Same
You're god damn right !!!
😊
Can you recall any previous artist you've had similar hunger 4?
NF is the only kid who said, "I'm Gonna", the rest said "I Wanna"
Oh Shit Facts
Because he goes and gets it unlike other
Stolen comment but you still get a like
R3DN3CK Flame oh lol I didn’t even know
Also, in 4:39 you can see a ticket he wrote saying "Time" on it; hence the song he made recently Time.
0% sexy girls
50%garbage truck
0% mumble rap
100% pure talent
Try to buy a garbage truck
@@eli8189 😆
He pass the Level of beiing a Talent Years ago 😉
And he doesnt have to cuss
On life for real
His reaction when the beat dropped me dammmmmmmmmmmmm
😂 😂.. Priceless
I can't relate to NF's dreams and goals, but I think we can all relate to just the emotional turmoil and that fluctuating struggle of determination, depression, that perseverance. It's crazy to think that if NF gave up like I do on my passions, I wouldn't have his music to hit me so hard and to relate to, and to lift me from some of my most hopeless moments. And just your analysis is hitting me so much harder, encouraging me to devote more to my passion. We all have the potential to create something unique and beautiful and incredible. Never let others get you down. When others won't stand by you, stand behind yourself so that you can look back with pride.
Notice how all the kids said "i wanna" and nf said "im gonna"
The more you know
long live legends I’m gonna start a counter as to how many times people have copied off of the first person who said this, cause there’s just way too many people who have done it smh
I love his confidence.
1 said "I would like to"
I can't believe nobody caught the "underdog" and "push me im gonna swing" lyric. when someone pushes u on a swing and runs under you it's called an underdog, the more you know.
Dioptre i’ve never heard of that lol cool
Lil pump: 10 Lambos
NF:A garbage truck would work
Lil pump:10 lambos but trash track
Nf: trash truck but gold track
keep this comment at 69 likes lol
Lil Pump: I'm a trash rapper!! WOOO!!
NF: May I show you how to rap without talking about drugs, and girls, and lamborghinis? Ok, well here it is.
He got pump in the back of that truck, that's where he belongs 😂
With talent
You still gonna like this comment 3 years later?
I'll like it 1 year after you posted it.
I can do 1 year for now
Try four years
I'm on year four.
Im on 4 years and 5 days
“He in a small room”
“I can relate to this” 🤣🤣
😂😂😂🤣🤣
I love watching people react to NF cause I’m like yes, it’s beautiful isn’t it😢
its good to see people with the same vibe with you, right?
it is 😭
True
Ong
everyone sleepin on nf thou, one of the best rappers in the game
Notice how every kid said „i wanna be....” nad NF said ,” im GONNA be a rapper”
I didnt notice that, jeez
Landon Cool Easter egg I guess
Naah he said "Im gonna be a whopper"
Tiki80 id rather be a Big MaC to be honest
@@thekingj7754 id rather be a big jack
Just recently found NF and so glad I did.
He cool
NF reminds me of 21pilots and Eminem combined.
You forgot the Christian rap guy
And even better.😎
that just blew my mind
Sameeeeee
Faxxx
Does anybody else feel like NF is reading his diary to you when listening to his music
starzscream614 absolutely
nice pp🔥👀
Yea
It’s really deep
Yea NF is kinda depressing
"i might not be the best in my field"
this boy be cracking jokes now.
FACTS
For me he is definitely the best rapper
He better crack his noise for cracking jokes
Best joke of all time
😂😂😂 good one.
I love how this gave 100 million people hope! I LOVE NF
⚡ It goes hard.. just reacted to this on my channel!! check it out!! 💖
Funny how hope is mentioned. Lol
The irony lol
7:25 that transition with the beat drops is dope, still gives me goosebumps
That transition from the small room to the stage hit hard and gave me chills
It’s smooth
Same 😂
Same bro
This comment needs more likes!! Feel the same everytime I listen to it.

He really just flexed on us with a garbage truck
HardFlops lol
Dumb asf(no hate)listen to music not watch the clip he didn't flex its a rap story🙉
@@donata6363 kid its a joke
On god those bitches expensive 😂
@@donata6363 lmao who the fuck says dumb asf and then (no hate) also if you are supposed to just listen to it then why is this a music video
This reaction video is so important in this day and age. When you said to “never give up on your dreams”, I legitimately teared up. Thank you for this. And thank you NF for making people feel less alone. 🙏❤️
Wow
💯
“ I can relate to this!!” Exactly, thats his message, wether your a Christian like him or not. Its all relatable, thats what hes saying, hes real. Hes NF.
What does being Christian have to do with this
@@adamjohn2795 Because NF is a devout christian
@@blaise5044 ok but what does it have to do with his music 💀
NF is a Christian rapper. That’s why he never swears.
@@zanderhall893 He is Christian and never cussed but he’s not a Christian rapper. He doesn’t write songs that are worship music he writes songs that no matter what religion you are you can relate to them.
Producer: What would you like in your video? We have Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Escalades-
NF: *Points out window* Get me that.
Producer: Th-that's a garbage tru-
NF: Just. Get. It.
Omg, this deserves more way likes xD
Lmao
Jaylen Harris 😂 😂
Lmao 🤣
Jaylen Harris dude I started laughing so hard when 8 read this comment
Producer: ok so what do you want a lambo
NF: nO
Producer: do you want a Ferrari?
NF: nope
Producer: tHeN wHaT dO yOu WaNt A gArBaGe tRucK¿
NF: yes.
Sooooo original
Stupid fucking comment ..... just post something normal ??
@@joshjosh5655loool just skip the comment XD😂😂😂😂😂?????
Damn taters gonna taste. I'll appreciate the hell out of this classless joke. Lol instead if being pricks and saying you can do better, why don't you just do better and give your 3 questions and answers. Mhmm that's real.
😂
ure actually the first person on youtube that reacts like super hyped and kind of out of control who i believe it, man, can we please take a drink and appreciate this artist. lovely to sit and see u on it, i dont care if its the first reaction, it was awesome, keep it up bro!
One of the most inspiring records he’s put out
NF: *acts like he isn't popular*
Also NF: *has 20M followers on spotify and almost 4M subs on youtube*
He wants fame not from raps but from love. That's where he feels fame.
His spotlight is on now with this new album. I'm not sure the numbers. But I'm sure his numbers are rising fast right now
Memifier Lord let him be the outcast my man
@@nuttynuts4601 listen to Therapy Session and he will tell uou why and what he wants
It’s not that he acts unpopular it’s that he’s humble listen to his music his lyrics always say he wants to make money not to buy cars or for girls but for his family and bills
The moment where NF jumped and it transitioned from his two friends to the massive crowd sent chills up my spine. Fucking incredible.
Me too! When I first watched the music video a couple of months ago, I had to pause the video after and I seriously gasped and just stared at the screen for a second. It was *so* good.
I doubt they are friends tho, friends are supposed to back you up an not look un interested when you pour youre heart out
@Legion i dont have a sociaal live what else am i supposed to do exept brainstorm over small details
@Legion probably more typos english isnt my native language
Facts bro when that beat dropped I had to replay that like 3x
Bro the transition from 2 people to whole crowd is like crazy
I’ll cry for you man, seeing your reaction it’s obvious that it hit home for you. I can’t relate to wanting to be a rapper but I can relate to others doubting me including myself. I was hyped up with you through your reaction, and I felt that emotion from you. That’s what great reactions do for viewers like me. Love your reactions 🖤
NF is actually one of the most talented rappers I have ever seen he is truly one of a kind
Defo agree with this, he's got an Eminem vibe but i prefer him over Eminem any day
ICU Wenur dude im feeling the exact same
ThiCC ape my favorite rappers ae logic eminem en NF
Eminem and logic vibe
hes so godlike hes upcoming and he will probably be on the top for a long time cause nobody is like him
Can someone remind NF that he’s famous already?? 😂
He's not famous
@@killuazoldyck6792 wrong
He’s not
He is famous, he actually is pretty popular
“I went from nobody to kinda famous”
Love NF since the beginning I seen him in a small theater over 5 years ago in a theater in Chicago and there was only 100 people! fast forward seen him in a sold venue in Detroit! This guy will always hit home for me especially going through depression problems! Love the reactions!
NF has been one of my faves since I heard of him with the album before the Search. Went HARD AF!
All the kids said “I want to be” lil NF said “I’m gonna be.”
Great reaction! Love your positivity!
TheBlackmagic13 What I was thinking the same thing
I realized that too
Realized it at the first time listening to it too. Awesome shit again from NF as always.
TheBlackmagic13 Best comment yet. Yes sir
NF is the only one I really feel I can say is dope without saying “but” afterwards. Mad respect!
I can
NF is dope BUT not enough people love him
@@Bradenst You got me there!
@Drake VEVO lebomb james?
@Drake VEVO wtf !?
I was gonna like your comment but I saw 666 likes.
I had no idea NF existed until like a week ago, and havent heard a full song of his until about an hour and a half ago. Goosebumps still have not gone away. I have been trying to fkn work dude but I can't. My mouth has been dropped for an hour and a half. It took me until the end of this video to finish this comment. What the fuck.
I love NF if i could only go to ONE concert it would be his
NF is not the next EmiNem❌❌
He's the first NF🔥🔥
Thanks for 3.1k
Make it 10k😍
Jabid Spade Yes!!!!
no one said hes gonna be the next eminem tho lol, eminem above all these 2019 rappers
He doesn't even swear so he can't be
Jabid Spade NICER
Jabid Spade u didnt make this
“Health is Wealth in 2019” 😭 that hits different now
100% though
Lei Feng that’s why I said it
Lmao
I get chills every time I watch the part where he goes from 2 people to a whole audience. Gets me every time cause I wanna make music and when I get over stage fright then i wanna be able to make it and nf gives me the hope. Your daily affirmations always gave me help as well bro so thank you as well man fr. #FireSquad
this is the most underrated reaction, much love
Everyone else: i wanna be
NF: i’m gonna be
The kid who says iam gonna be a rapper
Thats a fact
Dude had a bottle of water cause he knew NF spits fiire👏🔥
Ass Babie thinking the same way!!!!
🌊💯🔥
Because that's the average wage in Africa, dude
Its actually pretty weird cause if you watch from “when i grow up” back to early songs it plays out like a movie, at the end he smears the black paint on his face.
Idk if he did it on purpose but its pretty awesome to watch.
NF is insane sooo much talent!!! fire squad fire up for sure!!
3:37 if I see my trash man doing that I’m moving
Lol
Just imagine if he fell in the trash I know that's wrong but I just thought if that 😂
Some Dude With No Subs XD I would too
@@AJ-ne9nz i wouldn't I would join him
John Doe same
*NF comes out with a new song *
Me: I’m NOT READY!!!!!
Lmao I was waiting for it but forgot that I was waiting for it and saw the notification and freaked out
No one was ready and most of us knew it was coming lmao
P.A. Barako same
Man, NF brought me to you, and I love your reactioks, theyre sk enjoyable. Keep it up my man
Keep going back to this and I keep getting teary eyes because I’ve been a NF fan since 16 and been here on this channel since 70k subs man. So happy to see this channel blow up like this man. #firesquad was poppin over here in the Philippines man!
I’m a semi professional soccer player in Australia. I’m 15 turning 16 this year. My coach doesn’t really respect my ability but one day I swear I’m going to be at the top. Mark my words...
You will be at the top man, I guarantee you bro.
I'll be expecting from you soon in the big leagues
Wish you good luck
good luck dog
Prove them all wrong and show them that you deserve their respect
I love how the camera is focusing on the water bottle
Yes, the godly water bottle.
Water bottle doing insane reactions so water bottle god best so he need spotlight.
oh hail water bottle
W A T E R
Can't stop looking at the bottle now, damn you! Haha
so true
Yo LayedBak, in joy watching your reaction videos, and this one happens to be one of my favorites because everything you said is 1,000% facts. I’ve been learning how to play piano for about 8 months now. And it’s crazy because like you said, I was barely on my second month and so many people were expecting way too much out of me and when they saw that I wasn’t that good they never bothered replying to the videos I would show them. And now that I’m getting better now all of a sudden they wanna hear me. Thank you for motivating us. ❤❤❤❤❤
When he said ..It doesn't matter how long it take,ENJOY THE PROCESS
I really felt that,Thanks i can relate to that,that motivated me
LayedBak is so fast with these reactions. The grind is real.
Fr!
Real like NF😌
You again jellal
I just posted a reaction to Ed Sheeran like 15 minutes after 😂😂 but this dude I’ve been watching for a year. He’s never late.
You are everywhere man, I see you everytime at anime and smite youtubers
I love NF his music and fanbase is so special
TOO MANY FACES
TOO MANY FACES
TOO MANY FACES
7:26
TWO MANY FACES
Not Important oh yeahhh man I didn’t realise that. Shitt
Strait up LayedBak. I have no idea how I got to this video but you words and reflections were exactly what I need to hear. 100% subscribing. Thank you.
NF is pretty epic, his music hits me personally in the song let you down
This guy drinks so much water, but at the same time he doesn't drink anything at all.
Same
When I grow up I wanna become a firefighter, so I can put out NF's album because its gonna be literal fire 🔥
Just watched for about the 10th time. LayedBak is the realist. NF and LyesBak give me that motivation to keep grinding in my own crazy world!
This was a beautiful song and reaction, the best combo, NF and LayedBak. Man, lots of respect from Spain, love your content.
I was a game developer in college. This hit really hard at home. I remember during my final project that we had to create a game from scratch. Nothing like a AAA title or anything like that but something that would showcase our skills and what we've learned so far. I didn't know if people would like my work or pass on it. I had the worst anxiety in the world when I first released it as a beta just for the other students at the college to mess with. When explaining what it was similar to something you'd see at a GamesCon, I would choke up a lot. I would feel genuinely nervous. Eventually I had to get a friend to introduce it for me because emotionally I couldn't bare to stand there anymore even to just my peers. The judgement scared me. I know I did well, but I still had that feeling in my gut that I screwed up somewhere. People would pick on it and I felt that if I couldn't even get my own peers to play it, then I might as well hang up the towel and do something simple like plumbing or auto repair... But suddenly when I finally crawled out of the bathroom to see people crowded around it willing to try and seeing that they enjoyed it, I can tell you, even those 20 odd folks that really enjoyed it brought a passion in me that I never had before. It hit so hard I ended up going back in the bathroom and crying my anxiety out. I ended up puking (profusely) from the adrenaline. My entire life changed that day to see that success is what you make of it. I put my heart and soul into my work and to have seen people love playing it, felt like nothing else I have ever felt before. Y'all keep following your dreams. Keep pushing on. Take the risk. Don't be ruled by fear or anxiety. I have never been much of a social person myself but that one day of bravery gave me the hope that allowed me to finally find and catch up to my dreams. I don't expect to be Mojang and sell one game for billions. I just want to make it in this life doing what I am passionate about. NF hit me REALLY hard on this song.
This is same shit I'm suffering from bruh
You got an artstation homie?
BonerificGames I have a computer I built myself using my financial aid money... it’s probably worth around $4,500 with all the parts after I updated it to the Ryzen threadripper cores and the RTX series Titan Graphics card.
@@point-five-oh6249 no I meant an artstation account for your portfolio haha
Best of luck to you! I had the same feeling with my audio work when I was in college.
To be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of rap. But NF is an amazing artist, I haven't heard a song from him that isn't good. Great reaction by the way.
Branden Noetzold you think his albums are good you needa watch him in concert your life will be changed its that amazing.... probably puts on the best show I’ve ever seen
SAME
Same I’m not into rap but I loveeee nf
I love these reactions, so great to see someone get the same energy as I do when listening to NF. Keep up the great work sir!
I’ve seen several of your reactions and you were the most animated and excited on this one than all of the other ones I’ve seen combined! Loved this side of you.
NF is so underrated it’s ridiculous! I’ve loved that man for so long so it feels soooooo good to see people vibe him just as much as I do! The man is a true artist and no one can convince me otherwise! Thank you for your videos!
Nothing is better than seeing an artists you’ve loved for a long time finally make it big.
He’s got like almost 200 million views on some songs.
Wdym he has 7 mil subs lol
@@zacturf-n-sports6203 Obviously he has a big following! I’m not saying he doesn’t, I’m just saying there’s never enough promo for him, recognition in regards to awards, stuff like that, he literally says exactly that in most of his songs! Ya he’s got a large following, I just don’t think people are having enough conversations about him and his music, especially his storytelling.
@@ansatsu4020 right! , he just doesn’t get the recognition he deserves and maybe I’m just not around the right people or I’m not seeing the right things on social media but no one talks about him or his incredible storytelling!
Need to rename this channel to Trash or NF. Keep the videos coming LayedBakDFR, gives me something to listen to on my way to work. 👍🏻
Mad respect man, thanks for being honest and vulnerable. It inspires many of us. And it’s the reason I checked out your music and am getting into you man.
Bruh your presence on camera and energy is infectious and exhierating i found myself replying to you smiling like yea lets do this getting pumped. Thanks for the boost
Depression is deep but NF overcame his fears and struggles in life and chances and he is going to be top in the rap game, tbh he is in my opinion this song is the realest ive ever heard from NF cant wait for this album, truly remarkable
"I just wanna make a couple mill. Leave it to the fam in the will."
Easily my favorite line. Growing up with nothing you realize having anything you want still wont make you happy. so when you make money youre more likely gonna leave it for those who come after you or give it to people in need. And I'd say he's doing that. hes got the cheapest preorders for an album i have ever seen, gives us so much of his time and energy to everyone. and puts a lot of money into the production and his sound. giving us the best he can every album. doesnt flaunt, doesnt chase clout just stays in his lane. definitely the most underappreciated artist of our gen. but my favorite no matter how other people rate or compare him
@Bradley Williams that is true my dad had nothing but he still did all he could for his family growing up and now for me and my siblings
Your reactions are soo hype and heartfelt! I love it 🤍
i constantly come back to this video when im feeling down and u constantly remind me to never give up thank you for being my fav youtuber layerbak❤️
Literally everyone: why are you pausing so much
Reactors: bro it’s a reaction channel
He wants to share stories with us or just explain what the lyrics means to him.
Hes a reaction channel. If he didnt pause the video will get taken down

NF: How about a truck?

@@officialjda4114 why r/wooosh its true???
I think watching other rappers react to one another is a whole different reaction. Like this man out here relating to every word and you can tell he feels it.
Bro, you have the best reactions on TH-cam. Period. Watching you always makes me feel the song in another way. Super powerful, thank you.
I feel that you genuinely like NF. Some reactors seem like they only do NF because everyone else is doing it
100%. I straight up love this dude man. He's quickly become one of my favorite TH-camrs.
This song makes me want to color outside the lines
I’ll always love this song. Went to one of the music video shoots for it in nashville and got to listen to it early and it was the first time I saw NF in person.
Thank you ♡ I've been stuck on your videos for a few weeks hard. Recently, I have found myself within a smaller and smaller circle, one where love for music is gone. For someone who loves music, this can be super hard. Thank you for being hella dank, and making me feel like I have people to talk about music with♡♡♡♡
If you pause the video exactly at 4:40, the ticket hints at a new song coming out on 7/12/19, midnight, eastern time, U.S.A.
Edit: The song that’s dropping on said date is “Time”.
Also, thanks for the likes!
That's on my bday
The song is called " Time"
That's my daughters birthday
I hope so, that's my birthday 😂
@Michael D thanks bro
When I grow up
I'll tell me children's to listen NF

I’ve been a long time NF fan and I love react videos but you are by far my fave. Followed immediately.
Love to see your old videos ❤️🔥🔥🔥
I can't believe nobody caught the "underdog" and "push me im gonna swing" lyric. when someone pushes u on a swing and runs under you it's called an underdog, the more you know.
Alsk a eminem reference from when im gone. "I'll give you an underdog go swing by yourself"
Dioptre crypt did
I didnt know that! Thank you
No because everyone already knows it
Where I am from we call It an underduck because you duck under them

NF helps me validate every struggle I've ever killed it through, gets me in a rage mode to kill it 100x stronger.
Truly Grateful to his music and everyone that he helped get through, keep killing it everyday, don't matter if people see it or validate your actions, struggles or your wins, celebrate it yourself, fw everyone else thinks.
Bruh NF, and Joyner Lucas would be an amazing collaboration.
毕业第三故事听 hell yea
He doesn't fool with people like that
LSS2 Kefla wdym
NF, Joyner Lucas, Logic Is the key to succes
NF and Witt Lowry
Every other child said "when I grow up I want to be..." NF was like "I'm going to be..."
7:34 that gave me goosebumps bruh
I love this channel for the reactions. I’ve seen a ton of them. This is my favorite.
Did anyone notice that the recipe in the restaurant had the date July 12, 2019??? Something about to drop
Nah it's a song called Time. If go on genius you can see which songs are going to be the album. And on the paper with the date it says "Time" on top.
On NF's Twitter he confirms the albums drop date.
Also the song drops at midnight eastern
@Itz JeuX no problem
@Itz JeuX The Album 'The Search' will drop on 26.07.2019
That’s my birthday 🎂
The song is called Time and gonna drop today for sure🔥
love how he say "die real" instead of "die rich". subtle nod to a difference in goals between him and the rest of the industry
I actually noticed that at the end when he was walking to the bathroom, the song slowed down, almost as if a wind up toy, maybe indicating that his time of struggle is officially over
