Your reactions are so real and I am glad you found NF or NF found you! His music is his therapy but also the therapy for so many of us. I look forward to watching your NF journey and I really appreciate how you take the time to rewind and listen / understand the lyrics!
I've seen countless Mansion reactions, and yours is among the top! This is a song you will go back to throughout his catalog and see the connections...especially with Intro 3 and Remember This.
I haven’t listened to this song in a long time….Its crazy how much of his music connects. There are so many references in this song to other songs he will do years later. Love how you are connecting to him. Great job.
In the song hope you can see fear (NF all in black) ”settled in” laying down comfortable aning alll the black balloons (hos burdens). And in that song he also says he forgives his mother. Its like he turned his life into a movie. Fantastic! Tore amazing by the way! Keep up the good work! 🙏🏻
I love your vulnerability! This old 50 year old dude saw himself in you as you heard these lyrics for the first time. Pretty much the same exact reactions I had my first time. It’s crazy how NF’s music always has a way of finding a person when that person needs to hear it the most at the perfect time.
Looks like his music found you...welcome to the journey. His music found me years ago in his first album...funny story, I listened to a fellow veteran listen to his music from across the waiting room. I asked him what the artists name is and he answered, "Just look up Mansion by NF and listen to the whole album!" I've been buying everything he released since. Subbed! Great reaction!
You're right. In your first reaction (HOPE) there was plenty of references to NF's previous tracks. It's all connected from the beginning till the end. Looking forward to your next reactions!
I also want you to make sure you get the most out of your journey so id recommend following mansion>therapy season >real>how could you leave us >let you down>the search> leave me alone>when I grow up >why>time >clouds>story>lost>paid my dues>HOPE. Most of these have music videos and all follow the nf journey I might have missed acouple and other in the comments feel free to add any y’all feel I did but following this should work pretty well.
3 week ago i found NF-hope at random instagram post. I'm 27 and i was in the state that nothing was important, everything was meaningless to me. I was so pessimist person. When i watch "hope" and seeing him that he was fighting himself for found hope. Something was pop up inside me. (It was like, i guess i should just f*ck myself and my negative thoughts that holding me back.) Than i started to writing novel and it's really helps me out, i just spitting my thoughts on it and i loving it. More i write and listen his songs, more i found my true myself. Like Nate said: "writing songs is my therapy section". Right now writing is doing same thing for me too. Now i can see light about future. Now, i feel like nothing can break or stop me. Just belive in yourself guys, don't stuck your shitty thoughts or others. It's time to take your reigns.
This is my first time seeing you and I love your NF reaction. I would like to follow you on your NF journey. I found NF years ago and I can say he is one of the best rappers out there and does not cuss.
Loved your reaction! I'm a bit older then you but I feel the same way and the same connection to NFs music... The crazy part is.. MOST of his music makes this connection, not just with me but all his fans. I'm sure everyone's been telling you to "take the NF journey". Do "the list" which is fine but I think you'll enjoy these songs alot.... CHANGE I MISS THE DAYS 10 FEET DOWN ONLY DRIFTING JUST LIKE YOU. And if you do the NF journey these songs won't interfere. But I have a feeling you could really use these sooner rather than later 😘
Remember Fear! Intro 1 is from the mansion album introducing him.... Intro 2 is therapy session him going through a hard time.... Intro 3 is him trying to get rid of Fear.... CRAZY!
The trick to seeing your true self is to stop looking through the lens they provide you with. Remember, we told you this journey would change your life. Keep your ears and mind open and you will discover who you are, and will be.
Great reaction!! Can you see the reason why in Hope the negative NF pushed the hopeful NF back into his Mansion/ Mind where his dark thoughts are. But being there for his Son brought him back out of his mind.
My Nf friend! He’s my favorite male artist for many reasons. I’m here for the journey ma’am because it’s means something different to each of us that goes on it. And with your first time seeing him in hope in all white, in my opinion, has already answered your question about how your opinion of yourself can change. But I believe by going on this journey you will see that, but you’ll also see that it’s a process, not overnight. It’s truly taking him years to get to the place to make hope, but I do believe we all can get there ma’am. We just have to know where to start and be honest to ourselves about that! Looking forward to your journey ma’am!
Oh and I see you also reacted to my favorite female artist on the planet as well Angelina Jordan, maybe check out I Put a Spell On You next, she was 9 years old in that video!
I was going thru a bad break up and this song helped me through tremendously. My favorite part of the song is at 15:50 and at 6:08 it reminded me of my abusive dad 🖤NF🖤 Love your genuine reaction ❤
It’s funny you said the thing about drowning your demons little “the search” foreshadowing it’s all connected, and you heard the line in there about his mom and not having enough room in the song to talk about to then later he made how could you leave us.
hope u continue your journey. here's a rough list in order for the journey. I'm sure I'm missing a few tho. Mansion Album: Intro Mansion All I Have Wake Up Notepad Paralyzed Therapy Session Album: Intro 2 Therapy Session I Just Wanna Know How Could You Leave Us Real Oh Lord Grindin’ Statement Perception Album: Outro Intro III Outcast Green Lights Let You Down Destiny My Life If You Want Love Remember This The Search Album: The Search Leave Me Alone Change My Stress Nate Time Returns When I Grow Up Only Hate Myself I Miss The Days No Excuses Like This Options Why Clouds The Mixtape: Paid My Dues (I suggest googling “NF Rolling Stones article” before listening to this song) Lost Just Like You Layers Prideful Drifting
His fan base is so huge because his journey is one almost anyone relates to. Writing about challenges and depression and fear and anxiety and self-doubt..... Have yet to meet anyone that doesn't say "it's as if he's writing for me". Plus he doesn't curse, plus you'll find that he actually raps amazing. I recommend turning on lyrics because his videos are so visually stunning that it distracts from the lyrics sometimes.
If you don’t have your lows you wouldn’t appreciate the highs. Life isn’t stagnant, it’s not always sunshine and rainbows but it’s not always fire and brimstone either. We change, we overcome, adapt, evolve. Where neither angels or demons, we are human beings eh.
Great reaction: you're going to come in contact with a lot of good people reacting to NF. For the reasons you mentioned, his underground fanbase has become massive over the years.
It’s amazing how you feel about him and you are only a few songs in, this is just the tip of the iceberg, continue the journey chances are you’ll say the same “this is my favorite “ about every other song
Should watch "start over" by flame ft NF, most people won't recommend or anything because it's not his song, but also he shows how he's a Christian and actually sings about it, idk if you are or not, either way way people say he's a Christian that raps and not a Christian rapper lol...but it is a great song
If you what hope to make more sense you need to watch outcast and the search, it will blow your mind. It like he has planned 10years ahead for hope NF journey made channels blow and it puts you on an emotional Rollercoaster but it just hits different, its like says things we never could
a very cool thing about this song also is the production he is the only one in this track he bends the sound of his words somehow and makes his voice sound like a women and this isn't the only song he does this. very unique and shows more about how complete as a artist that he is
