What else should we react to? 🤔 Also if you like the song in the intro consider supporting the channel and downloading my new album ‘Chaos Theory’ now 🖤 www.knoxhillmusic.com
This guy catches so much more than just bars and it gives me a whole new appreciation for the music. This is what makes Knox different than any other reactor I have seen.
Bro, you're the only reaction video to mention the lines "They spoke my name to mostly hate, I don't complain, I'm woke, I wait A total focused soldier, wrote the Art of War, know every page' And acknowledged Sun Tzu - The Art of War. Appreciate you're breaking down of the lyrics
Man I laughed when I saw that I was trying to be funny so I was like "oh look it is mustard man dropping bars and some truth!" I love Tom MacDonald cuz he hits hard while trolling on his haters lol
Was waiting for you to react to this. You are the bar breakdown master. Every other channel missed majority of his bars and it was frustrating to watch. You truly love the art and it comes out in your reactions.
@@corndogjoe7860 damn right I did, I was thinking that but didnt want to say cuz I thought I would sound dumb but after he said it Im like, Damn that does sound like a 4d chess move
And I asked someone at work the other day if they had ever heard of Tom and they replied, “no one should listen to o him ever!” He speaks nothing but hate!” I asked, “in which song? What lyrics” They didn’t know a single song or line! That’s what’s wrong today!
Definitely! Shaq for his expressionism and just being a funny dude, and Knox for the way he breaks things down and his knowledge on all things in the world of music and the videos.
Did you hear what Shaq said about him recently? Lost all my respect for Shaq. Tom had gone out of his way to give him songs early and even did an interview. Then Shaq just backstabbed him.
I just stumbled onto Tom's "boom bap 101" today and can't believe Knox hasn't reacted to that. Super impressive bars and showing old school hip hop some love
The one guy that did production on "I hate hip-hop" said that his videos don't do the few bars of instrumental but his music does through apple, spotify, or wherever you listen. He also showed how he made them super dirty bass sounds.
Your critiques have been great. I would never have listened to you without seeing Tom McDonald being reviewed. I'm new to his music like by 3 weeks and am a huge fan of this dude that can say anything and there's so much truth in it and so much reality I wish the world would listen. We are One family of the human race and that dude has it down. God bless him and you man
Love that you break down what he is saying for some of the people that may take what he says the wrong way. As far as reactors go in my opinion you are the 🐐 Keep it up man.
I agree. This is only my 2nd video of his and I've been waiting for a reactor like him. Definitely should have more subs. Maybe most ppl only wanna watch other ppl Bob thier head and make faces, and only some of us care about the depth that goes into quality music. But then again, I found shaq at 400k then he blew up, layedbak at 1-200k then blew up....I think the world is copying me and I just subbed, so he will hit 1 mil by spring-summer time. Lol. Jk, but it does feel that way sometimes
Yea, he is one of the best, especially with this song. Cancelled is a reactors nightmares because there isnt much to say because in this song, Tom just lays it out.
When you started talking I thought I was gonna hate your video, just being honest. But listening to your very intelligent break down of Tom MacDonald's latest hit, I was proved wrong about you. You either paid very close attention to high school English class, took college courses on poetry or you did LOTS of independent research yourself. You know your stuff, and I respect you for that. Forgive me for thinking I'd hate your video. You're 💯💯💯💯!
You've earned a new subscriber. Most reaction channels don't actually break the songs down well and you did a fantastic job! Plus, I love that you speak the truth and don't let people silence you. Intrigued to see more.
welcome to hip hop man!!!! my advise..dig in...start on a year, for exemple...1985.. discover wich mcs realese music on that year and listen to it, then go to 1986..and so on. you wont regreat it...
Maybe he meant it as him being the featured artist on someone else video aka he wants to be the main artist although so far em has always been the featured artist yet he destroyed whatever the main rapper did.
Those that engage in cancel culture don't change the channel because they are purposely looking for something to be offended with. These people either get off on damaging another person's reputation or are trying to make themselves feel better by bringing down someone or a company that they are secretly jealous of (in my opinion).
Precisely. You hit the nail on the head there. It’s textbook schoolyard bully psychology, often combined with a victim complex and/or a compulsion to play the hero. Insecurity and guilt are extremely potent poisons, and-when combined with narcissism like is an overwhelming problem today-incredibly destructive. Hence all the bullshit in our screwed-up society.
^Also you wouldn’t believe how many times I had to repost that reply with slight changes before CensorTube finally let it go through. Or maybe you would. I didn’t keep count, but it was a lot. God I hate this platform.
Never heard of your channel before, but I’m glad I watched the reaction to “Cancelled”! You opened my eyes to TomMacs talents even more! Very informative video, and I appreciate the breakdowns! Hats off to you KnoxHill
@@traceurs619 The guy who couldn't win Scribble Jam, the guy who pretends prewritten lines are freestyles, and the guy who most definitely has ghostwriters, can lyrically murder anyone? We talking about the same Em? And who tf is Obie?
@@traceurs619 Eyedea: the best freestyler ever. Aesop Rock: the shakespeare of rap. And the ENTIRE Wu-Tang Clan. That's 11 people above Em. Nobody can touch the goats especially not mainstream corporate sellouts.
This man hit my heart being part of the H.O.G. fam. Knox breakdown what Tom/ Nova has built and what they stand for. All the HOG gang have meanings or support across many views even disabilities. Much love to Knox for his understanding and views of a artist that raps the truth about the world today.
Yo, love your breakdowns. I've been silently lurking for months adoring each one and you are easily one of the most thorough with the bars you notice; you seemingly have a unlimited amount of knowledge outside of music. I appreciate you. My 10yr old son and I watch every single Tom MacDonald breakdown as he loves his work too. I wanted to ask, is there any news on that interview with Tom? I'm guessing you're both super busy lately. Love ya, man.
I remember like damn near 10 years ago I had a minor beef with Tom. We fired off at each other a little. Now he's one of my top 5❤. I'm super stoked for him. And to people that blow him off as just an Em clone or a "lyrical miracle" rapper they need to REALLY listen. He's saying more than anyone I can think of popular right now. And all independent? Chefs kiss😘 He's reaching the top and I'm writing science fiction for Warhammer. Ah, the beauty of time. Let's goooooo Tom! 🎉
People don't leave you alone because of 2 things. 1) you are a lyric breakdown genius and this is because you yourself are a great lyricist. 2) Tom is the GOAT of controversy. Keep doing what you do, I get so much out of your reactions/breakdowns.
@@tysondouglas4766 mad child was a feature on toms songs though. I think he is referring to doing paid features on another artists song. But that’s mostly because toms most highly performing songs are all trolling videos to get a reaction which doesn’t mix well with another artist unless they were specifically catered to the same type of message. I actually thought his tracks with mad child were some of the best. Definitely madchild’s best work
Awesome your reacting to his songs! A lot of people I think wouldn't dare... I'm definitely subscribed. First because your fast becoming an ARMY and because you're really honest and I love how you break it all down. Today is when I first started watching your videos and I'm going to keep watching.
Every time Tom drops the song I keep checking back to watch your reaction....You are by far one of my favorite reactors....You can't cancel a self-made man! He built this house and they can't demolish it....Totally independent...totally sick work ethic....totally talented.. totally badass...totally rock with him and his messaget....you can't cage the beast.,HOG 4 EVER 🤘♥️🤟
I like how you do your reactions. You stop and break everything down instead of just listening to it, pausing 2 or 3 times with a comment and that's it. Good shit man. This is how it should be done.
One of the things I love about Tom is that he has lyrics and he wants you to hear what he's saying. He doesn't mumble them, he doesn't speak them so fast that you can register what he's saying. He wants you to know what he is saying.
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that laced with novocaine line was meant to be a shout out to his girlfriend Nova. Awesome reaction as always Knox! 🔥🔥🔥
dude you literally notice everything thank god. ive seen the video countless times watching it myself or watching reactions and until you i never even noticed the graphics added in lmao
I'm actually surprised you didn't catch "Randy on the bars". Randy, not only Randy Savage's 1st name, in British English "Randy" is a word for "nasty". That said, I love your breakdowns. Very knowledgeable and very interesting to listen to your interpretation
Hey ..knox, theres a way to get the exsact frame you want in youtube videos Pause before the frame you wish, then use the > key to move one frame forward And < key to move back. Im sire you did that in post or figured that out after but id thought id say. Nice work as always lad.
Man listen, I tripped on this channel and glad I did. One of the best breakdowns I've heard, by bar (and by far), than any other YT reaction I've viewed. I'm comin back and if I see consistency, I'll be hangin' around Edit 6 months later: Yep, 100% subbed. Amazing ability to break down each line, each bar. Top shelf my man, you got me now.
MAAAAAAN I've been waiting for your react video for this one. There's very few things I look forward to on a deployment but #1 is going home of course, 2 is Tom's new song, and 3 is reactions from you and #Nolifeshaq. As always I love your breakdowns and you are definitely on point with the imagery in his writing. Looking forward to the next one.
A lot of people forget that going to people they don't like and hating on them in comments gives them free views and comments. Supporting the ones they hate. On that note, you have my view and comment here every time. Lots of respect for your art, breakdowns, personality, and your video production. Thanks, Knox. Keep up the great work.
Mr. Hill, just a tip for future reference, in case you want stop at a specific frame of the video. Navigate to that frame normally as you would and use the comma and period keys (which are also the fewer-than and greater-than keys) to navigate frame by frame. Keep doing what you do bro, you are killin' it.
Ok, MAD RESPECT!!! You are the first reactor I have seen that caught the reference to Macho Man! Yes, Tom was a wrestler, and RS was one of the Greatest Ever... ;-)
knox thank you for doin this it's nice to hear someone that knows what he's talkin bout TMAC is the MIKE TYSON of hip hop this is how new army's get started we all need to stand together and save this country HOG $ life
I’ve watched your vids for a while, and never subscribed cus I just don’t mesh with your vibe...but during this video realized that beneath that is someone just trynna make it happen. Least I could do for the time I’ve spent watching is subscribe so I did. Cus regardless of the vibe, your breakdowns are well thought out. I appreciate you man keep goin
I like how you discussed not just meaning, but the technical aspect of the work. I do not usually listen to this type of music, but your technical description is engaging. Much love from an old white lady.
“The only person who can cancel Tom...is Tom Macdonald” With the exception of RU-vid and Facebook if they decided to team up against him. Don’t get me wrong, as far as the music industry is concerned, Tom carved out his own plot of land and told everyone to fuck off. He can’t be cancelled in regards to the industry, but he still relies heavily on Facebook and RU-vid to get his music and message out there. If Tom wakes up one day and those accounts are just gone or locked out...? I pray it doesn’t happen, but it’s far too realistic.
I truly enjoy the way you break down a song and video. Your technical experience with making music helps you to catch things that I have missed that really enhance the song or the video and make it more enjoyable thank you for your hard work
I've been watching for a couple years now, and I've been waiting. I always knew the day would come when you would have to, for the sake of your very honor, declare unto all the nations of men that you could not necessarily promise to read every single comment. Genuinely, I've always wondered when that'd have to change. Because you were bound to grow to a size where it just isn't feasible, and you're real enough that once you got there you'd feel the need to be honest about it. I'm sure it was a very conscious decision, and a tough one at that. I'm proud of you. Keep growing! Hopefully one day you'll be so rich and famous you'll lose touch entirely lol.
Hey @Knox, if you're on RU-vid watching these videos, you can use the comma ( , ) key to rewind in slow motion and the period ( . ) key to fast forward. Try it out. That would've helped you get to the specific spot with the horns.
