NF - The Search | Singer Reacts | 

NF is such a powerful lyricist! He speaks from the heart and all of his songs are breathtaking because every song is like a story, no pun intended, as he is an amazing storyteller as well. Amazing reaction as always!!

The black balloons represent his burdens. The cart i think is his "heart". "Pack up my cart. Take a new route." Speaks to the people trying to get him to change. To find "Hope". He is an amazing lyricist. And producer of music. Its stunning.

Leave Me Alone next pls

The balloons represent his burdens. And how he drags them around with him everywhere he goes

So if you didn’t catch it, in this video he talks about searching for the map for hope and in his song hope you see he found it. The balloons represent his burdens. Which also make an appearance in hope.

Currently on a binge of your channel Love your reactions

So first the music video; we see NF out on the plains, and he’s looking kind of sad; back behind him in the distance, we see this cage, which is where he came from, we recognized that from previous music videos, and we see that in The Perception album, which was a huge image; it was this idea of him being trapped inside, and basically he was being trapped by himself, because he had the keys the whole time. Well, now we recognized this image from the “WHY” music video, he's got this shopping cart, but attached to it a ton of black balloons; so he's pushing this along the way, and it looks like it's a little bit of a struggle, he's not super careful or cautious about it; and dotted on the country side all around him are these other people with one or two balloons themselves; and when the other people are dressed in white, NF is dressed in almost all dark colours; so he's doing this and I think there's so much significance to what we're seeing here, because he actually refers to the balloons in the lyrics as his burdens, and I didn't know what the shopping cart and the balloons were in the “WHY” music video, I didn't even know to know that they were something significant, but he points at them while referring to his burdens, and he's left the era of Perception (the cage), and he's moving on, but the shopping cart is in a way like him holding on to that cage, because if you look at a shopping cart, it's metal bars criss-crossing against each other; it is a tiny little cage on wheels in a way; one that you can take with you wherever you go, and it's got all of his burdens, all of his mental, emotional, psychological burdens, they’re attached to it, so they're stuck with him as well; now you look at these other people, and it seems to be him explaining how he normally feels, like he looks around the world, these people dressed in white, it looks like it's going okay for them, and they've got like what two three balloons, maybe four! Life is not that difficult for other people, but he feels like he's pushing his cage along by himself, and he's got way more burdens than anyone else, but at the same time he continues moving, until he comes to this river, and as we can see, on these open plains there in the music video, there's like nothing there; so he eventually does come across like this porch swing, which I think will have a lot of meaning coming up in future videos; but he doesn't find anything else, and so it goes along with the name of the song, “The Search”, because he and all these other people are walking around, wandering, searching for something. At the very end of the music video, he hops inside of his shopping cart, and somebody gives him a set of those same white clothes that everybody else are wearing, and I think that this is a hand-off to whatever the next music video is going to be. the search was in 2019 and Hope came out in 2023 he was wearing white in the music video which means that the white clothes represent hope. i guess you did the music video for "HOPE".

Enjoying the variety of music on your channel. Your awesome 😊 NF has so much good music

Great reaction Rachael! This is my favorite song by NF.

This song is pure fire 🔥 Loved the reaction 😍

I love the fact that nf doesn't sugar coat any of his song and that he is honest about how he feels and that he is an awesome rapper and should be loved and respected for his honesty

Good morning our Host! :) Nice to see another NF reaction

A fantastic song is Gone from his new Hope Album. Love your stuff!

Pause and rewind all you want Ray. The NF fans want to hear your thoughts and we don't mind you pausing at all. Great reaction. There is a follow up to this song called "Leave Me Alone", and a song that precedes this called "Why" both are amazing. But always, always, always rewind back a few bars after each pause. The only problem with this reaction is it was over too soon 😃. Pause and rewind and take your time with it.

So he is in Iceland (its black sand from the volcanoes) the cage in the back ground is from the song "Outcast", the swing is also from one of his very earlier songs. The black balloons are his burdens, the shopping cart is from his song "Leave Me Alone" the people in the white outfits are also part of the song "Leave Me Alone" (it has to do with transformation). In this song there is a line "looking for the map to hope", in the song "Hope" which comes after this song he is wearing white and has a map that he keeps looking at (again he is in Iceland for the song "Hope").

Change by NF (the song he referenced in this one) is such a good look into his mentality at this time in life

please continue the NF rabbit hole!

Leave Me Alone is Pt.2 🔥

No misses from the goat. His song leave me alone connects to this video. It will help you understand the baloons, white and dark clothes. You will need to go back his song outcast to understand the cage. The shopping cart is like a portable cage. This is why everyone should start at the beginning to understand Nate.

This is the first song that I heard and music video that I saw by NF and I became a fan from there

That white shirt is like the hope , the song that u reacted "HOPE BY NF"

I never even heard of NF until maybe six weeks ago. And we are both from the exact same tiny town in Michigan.

Why u always in a mood ❤

“I’m looking for the map to HOPE” This guy is insane!

Your awesome..keep up the good work!

You should really go down the NF journey starting with intro 1! I absolutely love all his old stuff

One of the best rappers in the industry.

You should start the NF journey. Start from the beginning, work your way to the newer stuff. He is probably one of the best in the game right now.

NF I've been a fan for years... I'm gonna keep recommending Dax everytime I comment though 💯

Remember This is the best

Awesome to see your NF reactions - btw, I have a clip of Ren talking about collaborating with NF on my channel. Love your glasses too!

Try to relax and stay awesome

The video was filmed in Iceland.

❤❤

If you're talking, you aren't listening and you miss so much. Pauses are useful 😂

He said.

NF is similar to Eminem is how he can use words that add layers to each bar that is puts out. He selects words purposefully and it just works really well.

its the hope outfit

Mama next pls!

Leave me alone is the sequel to the search

🔥🔥💯💯 Reaction NFrealmusic 💯

His voice reminds me of Ben Drew from Plan B

The Warning. More is different but awesome...👍👍🤘

do my stress by NF next please

The Follow Up To This Song Is - Leave Me Alone.

NF music is the music I need to thirve, but NF himself is the person I need to survive. Period.

if you like it when the music stops for a sec u should listen to GONE by NF

bad omens just pretend or like a villain, pls🥺🥺

Its that time again, better grab your balloons and invite your friends

Suggestion for react: 2022 EM UMA MUSICA - Lucas Inutilismo. (In English: 2022 in a song)

Ray, you so beautiful, u know.. 😻

Avenged Sevenfold - Hail to the king please 🙏🙏

Cutest reactor EVER!!!!!!

INSTRUMENTALS POW YA in the face

Villain

Thanks for talking over some of the most iconic parts! I think you can do better and just talk all the time!

Almost easy

You lost me making a big deal about the noose.

You can be this pretty what do you eat? 🤭😂

You pause at wrong timestamp 😢😢😢

U cut the music in the best part xd

Waiting for the HARRY MACK's rabbit hole

No no no. Stop. Take one song at a time. Each song is stand alone.

The only problem i have with NF is he does the same big bass drop in almost every song (even if it does sound great). It's unique and he's the only one who does it but it does get old when you focus on it too much. It's like if a metal band used the same breakdown for every song. Other than that, he's a lyrical genius with great flow and excellent storytelling. If you're gonna keep expanding into deep lyrical rappers, check out : Hopsin - Fly Hopsin - Your House Hopsin - I Need Help Hopsin - Alone With Me Hopsin - Rebirth

I have never so quickly clicked off a video because someone wouldn't stop talking over the damn lyrics. By like the 4th time she did it I was done. Stop talking over songs you're reviewing. Pay attention.

Ok clearly, you dont know NF but Im confused? Are you a Singer? I feel like you should be commenting on his actual voice and his falsettos and shit and not commenting on the music video.

I think the word that your trying to use is "poignant"... This whole song is very "poignant"...

Dang u missed the most important part of the vid.. relisten plz... 5:28 such a story.. plz listen.

STOP talking over the song

Tbh I hope you dont try to get in other REAL songs... STAY OUT.

@Rayactions, Remember how you reacted to HOPE and he was on a raft in big body of water wearing all white? I like to think of this song as the pre-quel. Near the beginning of this track he says "I'm looking for the map to hope, you seen it?" then he closes with "the search begins so enjoy the trip" which this is intro-ing his album called The Search but also looking at how this video ends near the entrance to a body of water with someone giving him a set of white clothes.... Seems to me that it ties really well to the HOPE video as a continuation?!?! 🖤🤍
