I know you guys hate self promoters but please hear me out. I'm different than other rappers, I rap about stuff that makes a difference. I recently got bullied in school and I wrote a song about that. They bullied me cause I'm indian, my accent and a lot of other stuff as well. The song is called "k grip hope" on youtube. I think you guys should listen to it so you know what it was like for me. Guys please dont be mean. I know that this fanbase is better than the others. Thanks for listening to me, please be kind to others whether you listen or not. 🙂
"All of us have made defensive scarecrows that we scatter round our fields and treat like heroes when they scare away the things that we should cherish cause we're to embarrassed to admit the fear is that we're lost". Realest bar you will EVER hear.
I know, and it’s that same reason why I never thought I’d ever see these 2 collab no matter how bad I wanted it to happen, but hearing that literally just makes it so much better than what I had hoped for
"what i really wana do is learn to handle my thoughts and pull the reigns on them" -lost 2021 "im pulling the reigns" -hope 2023. love how he kinda hinted at a soon to come awakening with this.
@@cyrusnoble4346 i remember that from no name. Problem is, hope isnt album 4. Album #1- moments Album #2-mansion Album #3- TS Album #4-perception Album #5-search And this will be the sixth. Even if we dont count moments this is the fifth album. If we look at it from when he said that (after perception and before the search) and assumed he meant the 4th album from perception, this would be the 3rd album.
@@calebnick.6098 Haha, my bad, wasn't suggesting Hope was album 4. Was just adding in another one of his foreshadows. Guess a better one would have been "I'm looking for the map to hope, you seen it??" But I thought that was too low hanging of a fruit, lol
Guys please hear me out. I'm a 15 year old kid who gets bullied in school and I wrote a song about it. I think those who get bullied would be able to relate to it and others would know what it's like. If you guys wanna listen to it, it's called "k grip - hope" on RU-vid. Even if you don't listen to it, please be kind to others so they don't have to go through what I did. Guys please don't be mean, I know this fanbase is better than other ones. Thanks for listening 🙏

To anyone wondering if NF asked Hopsin not to cuss this is the answer. The answer to that is no. NF didn’t ask Hopsin to not cuss. He said in his live video that he (Hopsin) didn’t want to ruin NF’s legacy by cussing on his song. So he wrote the rap with no cuss words and also thought that it was actually really good and even questioned if cussing was really necessary to create a good music.
I think that the lack of cussing forces deeper lyrical meaning instead of just swearing with one word they have to describe with verbal imagery and is more descriptive. I think that this is one of the reasons nf is so lyrically profound
He isn't underrated. He has over a billion views on his videos. He literally has a song where he says "I hate when they debate if we're underrated. We are so underrated they are overlooking over our numbers." That person overlooking the number is you. He's talking about you
Heard an interview with Hopsin, the other featured artist on that track, who, unlike NF is NOT known for the profanity-free nature of his music. He was asked, given that his collaboration with NF is clean, whether NF had requested that. Hopsin answered that no, it has been his own choice out of respect, not wanting to mess with NF's legacy of clean music. He admitted that there were many times while writing his verse that he really had to force himself to find a suitable replacement for the swearing he would otherwise have included. He ends the thought by saying, "It pushed me to be a better MC because through that verse - when I finished it and when I was hearing it, I was like, did I EVER need to cuss to get my point across in any of my songs?"
It takes effort to be able to write a verse and not cuss. As a music producer myself, I have to pick and choose who I work with because I don't necessarily want to be put in the same "bubble" as said artist. I mean I am not one to compare artists, I do listen to a lot of music, but it just seems like the ones who actually rap without the F bombs get looked over a lot and their music is just as great if not better. Just my two cents.
That’s pretty cool. I have no issue with NF’s music. It’s made with the intent of not cursing. What I hate is censorship. If an artist made their track explicit, I want to hear what their original art sounded like. I don’t want censorship on the music. NF songs are purposefully “clean” so it doesn’t bother me that he doesn’t curse. It’s his original work I get to listen to

I like how NF Holds his balloons quite carefree suggesting that he is actually more used to holding them while hospin holds onto them tight because hes only realised his issues. either that he got tired of holding them lol
I heard an interview between hopsin and someone and he said NF didn't have to ask hopsin to not cuss but hopsin did it out of respect for NF's name because hopsin knows
People sometimes forget hopsin was in the Cristian scene and is 100 capable of destroying anyone on any beat without cussing.. I'm flabbergasted these guys got together ❤

@@kc-lv4gh it's not even about being mean, self promoting can get your channel taken down because it's against community guidelines. It's like saying cops were good to you because they let you pay 1/3 of a ticket, they're not like the other "mean" policemen who do their jobs.
It's interesting how this song is about being afraid to ask for help and it references the book of James. "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." - James 1:5
@@amanlol123 the underground has changed... grown... we have some serious rap gods now. no face tats needed. no shitty techno beats... just raw talent. NF and Hopsin are most certainly in the top echelon.
Man, I was here when this first dropped and now revisiting it after a while and it's giving me chills down my spine listening to both NF and Hopsin's verses paired with the emotional responses from their body language as they deliver those verse complimented by the fire beat. Absolute masterpiece of a song!
Came across this video and never realized it was Hopsin when someone played this song. Use to have Illmind 5 memorized and blared it driving around town and its crazy to thing its been 11 years. Sick to see him and NF together!

This hit very hard I had my first family member pass away and I’m almost 30. I remember looking at myself 20 in college thinking I’m an adult and this is how hard life can get. Life is full of up and downs

Credit to Hopsin spitting bars without cursing. He even referenced the burdens, you can tell he wasn’t just jumping on a track, he had respect for Nate and the fans. Love this song!
He has blown up. He has been streamed over 8 billion times on spotify. A song over one billion on spotify. He did not drop anything in 2022 and made top 63 most streamed artist of all artists at over one billion streams he made that mist with em drake kendrick. He also made that list in 2020 and 2021. He has 28 million RIAA certifications. Two number one albums both platinum one song at almost diamond level He has almost 9 mil subs on here and almost 4 billion views on his page here. NF gets spins on shade 45 gets awards for radio plays of his songs like time let you down lie if you want love.
Im sorry but u must live under a rock bc I can't agree more w these people. Ha NF not blown up . Nate u hearing that!? What was it like the cohabitation of u and Em? Or Em and you. Was guna go word play or w.e put a play on words ugh the nerves of this guy saying a complement but and dis all in the same exact line. Lol
This beat hits home for me really hard. At the peak of my panic discorder I forced myself to climb a local mountain with my dog, not on trail, just straight up through the deep snow, I was facing my fears straight on, a form of cognitive behavioral therapy if you will. I calmly did it and felt stronger afterwards.
NF you have changed my life, I never thought my mental health was so profound or that I'd have issues with it, your music has made me step back and look at myself and make changes.
I was here when Nate had like 2 Songs on his RU-vid.. and I'm still here many years later! Nate, all that hard work finally paid off brother. I wish you so many blessings. You truly deserve them. If anything, it's just what you've given all of us, coming back to you. Blessings.. it's Blessings that you've given us.
He did do it out of respect, but it was definitely in the agreement. If anything he is obliged to show he is capable of rhyming without vulgarity in honor of Nate's style.

NF has been telling such a complicated story about his struggles over the years through his music, his intelligence is mind blowing, delivery flawless and has connected with me in a way nothing ever has. Thank you Nate, you help me on my path of discovering who I am.
Did I just now realize that NF has been Will Smith'ing this game the whole time!? Knew he was a Christian rapper, but didn't even put 2 and 2 together that he's never cursed.
