THIS ISN'T NF FLOW!?! | NF - Why (REACTION) 

Great song and a great reaction! My thoughts on the Pennywise bar is- Nate is always at war with fear, you see it throughout his Intro songs as well as others. And since Pennywise feeds on fear I take it like he's wrestling with stabbing Pennywise/his fears. In Outro he raps about how fear has been the root of his music and if he gets rid of that how would that effect his music and career. I could be off, this is my personal take on it.

Yeah he pays big homage to Big Sean. He uses big seans flow from bounce back and mentions big seans album i decided and big seans name in this Also many eggs written on the wall

This one is a straight vibe! Big Sean has an album called, "I decided." NF is being subtle and paying homage to him by saying he wish he could decide like Big Sean did on "I decided." Also, Pennywise is the "It" clown. NF wishes he could end his monsters in his mind and kill them.

Big Sean had an album called "I Decided" and NF says "This isn't Nate's flow" he's paying homage to Big Sean because it's Sean's flow

“Stick my knife inside of Pennywise” = want to kill my Fear!!!!

Also, assuming "Leave Me Alone" is next and also assuming you haven't already recorded it, go back and listen to "No Name" again! Trust me you want to be refreshed on that song before listening to "Leave me alone"

🔥🔥 reaction, bro! Props for catching the Big Sean flow, a lot of people I’ve seen react to this didn’t catch it. If you’re looking for Nate to keep up this level of banger songs, then you’re headed in the right direction. There’s a reason that The Search album was number 1 when it released. Nothing but flames covering the whole album. Looking forward to more of this!

Fantastic reaction!! NF giving flowers. This one is definitely a top song. ❤️🔥❤️

Pennywise the dancing clown from steven king's it

"wish I could think like Big Sean does but I just cant decide, if I should stick my knife inside of Pennywise" I think he's saying he admires Big Sean's pen and wishes he could write like him but he's not sure if he could "Cut IT"

DonVon On top of the fact NF was a big fan of the Pennywise franchise... ''Pennywise was also a band formed in 1988 in Hermosa Beach, California by four members with Jim Lindberg (vocals) They released two EPs: A Word from the Wise (1989) and Wildcard (1989). Each of the band members had played in other bands in the Hermosa Beach, California area and attended the same high school. In 2011 Pennywise, Big Sean and The Game toured together and I assume Nate was at one and was impressed with Big Sean but perhaps offended Pennywise got top billing?''' that's what I got Peace... ;)

big sean has an album (i think) called "i decided" that's why nf says "wish that i could think like big sean does but i just can´t decide"

NF is Legendary.

I've always thought the Pennywise line meant this: "I wish that I could think like Big Sean does but I just can't decide if I should (stick my knife inside of Pennywise = take a stab at IT)." Take a stab at (try) IT (thinking like Big Sean).

Big Sean - I Decided

He killed that lyric about putting a knife inside of penny wise, the clown that was the representation of fear and hopelessness; its like we all question who we are and who we want to be but, one of the biggest reasons for questioning yourself is self doubt and fear; that part hit hard because we need to face and penny wise or fear to remove its hold or power on us. there is so much lyrical genius in this song.

New sub! Bruhhhh! I’ve never looked up the lyrics to this song but I always thought he said “but I forgot the shelves” 😂 but you just shed light on what he actually said and now it actually makes sense!!! Great reaction. Love NF!!!

"This isn't Nate's flow" That's a Big Sean flow.

YEAH! Michigan representing!

Leave Me Alone is next I hope.

Pentwise is a killer clown in it. But it's another way of NF saying to kill his fear

That is why he said "This isn't Nate's flow", because it was Big Sean's flow:) We on the NF Train!!!!!

NF says “wish I could think like Big Sean but I cant decide” cause Sean dropped an album that year called I Decided

You crazy bc NO NAME is a banger

I loved your reaction so much! This is definitely one of my favorite songs off this album! This song was so cool in concert! The Pennywise lines are referring to "killing his fears". He pays homage to Big Sean. NF always pays homage to others he respects and likes their music. NF is just a whole fucking different breed! I love him so much!

🔥 NF is just different man I swear

I’ll play this with Nate 7/18/23 at Nō Studios in Milwaukee, Wisconsin! Wrote the clouds album with him!

PLEASE REACT AINA ABDUL COVER I SURRENDER,EASY ON ME,HERE'S YOUR PERFECT,RECKLESS,DRIVERS LICENSE,ALL BY MYSELF🥰😍🥰😍🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

(LA Leakers Ray Vaughn) is a reaction you definitely should do. Bars after Bars after Bars is all I can say The entire video is Bar heavy and straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Ray Vaughn has more bars than a N.Y.C jail . Peace ✌️....

Ok so call me crazy… Pennywise - represents fear. “Fear came to my house long ago.. is that me or the fear talking, I don’t know anymore” In the video he’s in a room with writing on the wall.. lyrics. In the lyrics he’s basically recording a train of thought. The song in the room where him and fear live. The lyrics build with anxiety then the smilie faced (pennywise nf aka fear) starts taking over and the flow changes. “This isn’t Nate’s flow.. not back to this flow.. The lyrics go frm defense to offense and become confident/aggressive/proud(?) This song imo is a picture of his relationship with fear qnd how they are different versions of himself.

Amazing breakdown man! Love you stuff! My thoughts on the Big Shaun Pennywise line is a little hidden story within the story. Earlier in the song he says, "This isn't Nate's flow," Which leads me to believe that he is talking through his own personal demons, and just like the balloons with burdens, is represented by the smile makeup. So when he mentions thinking like Big Shaun, I feel like he is in his own person struggle with his demon, which Pennywise is a metaphor for, and weather or not he should let his demon and fear control him or not. Then when he talks about his emotions make him feel like someone else, that is a nod to his demon, Pennywise, that is is fighting. Then even at the end, he says that not a lot of people know him well, because of the demon that lives within him. I think he set this whole song up to be a tell a story to those who have been on his journey with him, which is hidden by a story that the casuals hear.

When he says “isn’t Nate’s flow” he’s using big Sean’s flow from his song bounce back, if you wanna get even crazier when he says “ I wish I could think like big Sean does but I just can’t decide“ he’s referring to the album bounce back is on which so happens to be named “I decided”

“This isn’t Nate’s flow” Just let me rhyme I’m in disguise. He was paying homage to Big Sean because he was using Sean’s flow for that bar and we was making fun of fans that would call him out for it. Great bar

Let You Down has probably made Diamond status now, I know back in like 2019 or 2020 that mug had done went like 10 Plat.

Michigan. Alot more talent comes from here then ppl think. Wayne static. Madonna. Singer of red hot chilli peppers. It keeps going lol

Pennywise specifically feeds off of children's fears. His target has been children. He makes their nightmares come to life. Sticking his knife into Pennywise is killing his childhood fears, his trauma. He can't decide if he wants to do that though because his childhood fears and trauma is what fuels his music!

Michigan just different.. idk how y’all got like some of the best rappers Ever 😅

Couldn't finish this reaction. Literally paused every 3 seconds.

The line about Pennywise means, Penny wise the clown fed off the fears of hus victims. So sticking his knife in Pennywise would be like killing fear. He's not certain he wants to kill his fear cause it's gotten him this far in his carrer.

Michigan legendary

Yo Devon I can’t believe I just seen you on here

Pennywise it the alien/clown thing in stephen kings IT. He preys on people's fears.

Pennywise is the clown from IT. Uses what you fear against you. Great line

Pennywise is the Clown from Steven Kings IT in case you are not into the horror stuff.

Amazing reaction thank you needed this today much love

Pennywise represents fear manifested in the movie it, slay your fear!

Pennywise represents fear , he wants to stick a knife in his fear, he hates his fear

If you notice the word hope is scribbled in the back probably an Easter egg for gape at that time

Why you got the Little Brother hoodie on man?

Your on the journey 🙌love it! Great reaction, keep going! New music 🎶 will be coming! Love ❤️ NF! Pennywise feeds on your fear, that is why he said that, kill your fear!

Pennywise is the clown from IT movie.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Big Sean has an album or song called decide

You have to react to Johnny Cash - Hurt

Nice sweatshirt! Go green!!! 💚🤍

pennywise is the symbol of fear.

Michigan in the fuckin house!

This is actually the first song NF did the black balloons and smile. I remember first seeing it like 'what the f*** does it mean?!?!?' Lol

You should react to “The Search” NF, probably one of his best songs. And has a lot of bars in it. If feel You will appreciate it.

Please react to search as well as returns

you should do the search next!!!

I dont know if you got the next song but you should do "the search" next

WHY was the first song I discovered by NF and it still is in my top 5. And then there's days like today where it's back to number 1

react to the search u won’t regret it

Leave me alone next please!!!!

I love your reactions I’ve watched all of your mf reactions and if you like the story telling and rap part you would love one of his older songs called that’s alright. Another artist group I recommend that I feel doesn’t ever get covered is devilish trio. Keep up with the good work man love the content❤️

I was attacked when I first heard this song years ago cause *let you down* was the only song i had heard, i had started the NF journey from that very day😊 I thank God for that day and NF and you for reminding me where I started🥺🥺

Can you do I miss the days

Please stop pausing

Great Reactions! Question - your NF playlist has the entire "Clouds" album then you started from the beginning and was going in order... then stopped? what happened? You must listen and react to the entire "The Search" Album! You jumped to "Why"... why? lol Am i missing something? Cheers!

Yes! Great reaction to this song! Most people miss the Big Sean flow 🙌 #RealMusic

Fear

Didn’t know you were from MI. Mad love from all us Michiganders!

Love that he incorporated this swing into the search video too

Can’t wait for “ pay my dues “ 🔥🔥🔥

Story and Nate are really good songs by him

This song in concert was ❤️‍🔥

are you gonna go back and react to the songs that you skipped on his past albums or just the ones you pick and choose ? I would love to see your reaction to the ones you missed !!
