Tom was totally broke, living in the hood in South Central LA. He made a song that went viral. Now, he’s a multi millionaire. He is an independent artist, and answers to no label. He speaks his mind! Every one of his songs speaks a message.

“I’m here to make history, and not let old history define me” -that could literally be one of the best quotes of our generation. Love this bro!

Profound. made me think…and agree

I was liberal for a decade until 2018 I started changing my views when it became apparent to me how much deep seated hate all my liberal friends around me had and I did not see that same level of hatred out of my conservative friends or family.....and i thought the liberals were the ones who were suppose to be more accepting and loving...I got played.

Most people are liberal when young because they are fooled by the false humanitarian agenda the left likes to claim, but once they start working and becoming an adult realize the other side is much better. Mind you I am sure most conservatives will tell you they do not like most the politicians even on the right in office as they are usually part of the same cabal. Trump (seemingly and hopefully) being the exception.

Well, I've got to say. I'm a senior, widowed lady, living alone on the farm. My grandsons were out for the weekend a couple months ago when I introduced them to Tom MacDonald's music. The oldest could not believe he had a Mema who knew more music than Queen, Pink Floyd and 60's hippy music! I'm the cool, awake Mema now in their eyes! lol

Tom and Adam are going going where other independents can't with the numbers and reaching more people with a their message. #HOG UK here for it

White boy song blew up and he paid big bucks to have it advertised all the time. I honestly thought it just wasnt a good song even though I could agree with much of it. Majorly click bait type theme with a hook that i still cant stand. I wouldnt have thought at the time that eventually id like the vast majority of toms music. But his real good shit is on the albums; or streaming services. KZread he knows semi political content gets views. His "deeper" more personal songs about mental health; relationships; addiction; hopelessness, religion, etc.... Those songs are what really hit for me. I think tom knows that those are rarely the songs that get attention; as he has been around independent hip hop for a long time and seen that the music about that stuff tends to gather a smaller but more engaged base of fans. Part of me loves the adam calhoun bit... Another part of me cant wait to hear what tom gets at on his own.

@@lawrenceshdow That's a LOAD of CRAP right there! Tom didn't pay BIG BUCKS to push anything cause he didn't have BIG BUCKS when he released that! Know what you're talking about before flapping your gums about things you have no idea about! "Clickbait"? Do you know what "Clickbait actually is? It's when you market a song with a name & do talk/sing/Rap about something different which Tom hasn't done. These guys are just Rapping about things they actually CARE ABOUT! If you're hating why are you on this page? In the end what the hell are you on about?

Politicians and the media don't want us to have the conversations or for us to heal. They benefit from the division

The thoughts, dissection's and intentions behind this review are beautiful! Love how they listened and interpreted the lyrics but also have points to add! These are the types of things our nation needs to have a LOGICAL and controlled conversation about.

Damn boyz hella review! I so appreciate the grace and truth with which you discuss these touchy topics. 40!!!

Yes. This is the social commentary America needs. Government funded by special interests are tearing us apart with wedge issues. Only people like TM can change the narrative, and that requires people like BP and others to help people get the message.

Yesss let's unite against the machine. We are all one ❤

Hi both of you. #HOG 🎉

New subscriber here. I'm so glad I found this channel!! I watch a lot of reaction channels, and, imo, this is the best one thus far. Black Pegasus and his guests go much deeper into what the lyricist is actually trying to say, giving a better understanding of the point of the song. Tom McDonald's songs have a much deeper meaning that what's on the surface. Thanks BP for taking a shovel to the song and going deeper than just the outer layers of the song. Much respect from NC.

Love the convo guys!

My great grandfather would drill this into us " there's a time and place for everything. And there's no reason for violence but if you get cornered and have no choice then use every ounce of anger and frustration you have to knock the hell out of whoever is refusing to allow you to go forward in life. You make sure if you have to make a mark in this life make sure that mark is for making this world better and not for destroying it with the hatred of the past."

❤UNITED WE STAND❤

I'm 57 , I remember in grade school about third grade, when the bus showed up and black student entered the school. I had never seen a black person at that age. I didn't have the attitude that the left is pushing right now. I became friends with those that would talk to me. Mark my words they were just as curious as me. Some of us are still life long friends. We went on through junior high and high school. Played sports together partied together and families hang out together. I understand the song, "to divide and concur." With us divided they can control us. You guys broke it down great, keep it up. A side note for those wondering why an old guy is listening to this music. This music started when I was a teenager. My generation is where it came from.

What's up Joey E. (2E's no Y) good to see you chilling with the black Pegasus

“There’s no better than owning.” That is freedom. Love y’all!!!!!

Man this is one of the best conversations I’ve heard about culture and race. I agree 100% with y’all and I’m glad people are starting to see it more and more. Thank you both for having these uncomfortable conversations. We all don’t have to agree on everything to get along, but we should never let other people or government tell us how we’re supposed to feel about one another!

I love the Joe E. and BP reactions. I watch you both so it's two birds with one stone.

You asked about the prison sentences, so here's where my research took me. Yes, black people STATISTICALLY do slightly more time for "the same crime". Here's the twist. This is just going down a spreadsheet, not actually reading the court case. Most of the "abnormally" long sentences are actually plea deals where they pled down from a more serious crime, which explains getting the maximum sentence of the lesser crime that actually goes on the record. It's just another manipulated statistic to divide us.

It's great to see this kind of reaction about all of us needing to engage in conversation. We are all here to live ours lives.

JOE-E CAME TO SEE NOVAS WORK , WE ALL KNOW ! LOL

Well done gentlemen. Two intelligent guys with well thought out conversations. Love the spirit in both of you!

❤❤❤ Love when you have Joe E on for Tom reactions, he has such genuine, amazingly compassionate energy, i just love watching him vibe to the music. I immediately subbed during the reaction when you introduced him to Tom's music. Honestly I love reaction videos where people introduce others to new music they haven't heard of yet and then discuss it, so those since you do that in to Tom I know you do a lot introductions to Ren which I love those videos as well, so much respect for you for that, because people need to hear their music, so thank you, and the fact that I get to watch the reactions is an added bonus. I appreciate watching people discuss the deeper issues that Tom puts out I feel like that's his motivation to begin with so watching people actually do that you know that these topics are getting discussed. The last thing I was just going to say is I'm glad you pointed out which I think only maybe one other person I've heard actually point out that specific line they will hear " that's trauma in your DNA causing what we see today" but no one speaks on the last part which is " I pray that you're staying strong, don't want to see no man in pain". I think with any reaction videos, people are looking for just that a reaction, so they pick obviously the more controversial songs which it's fine because obviously he wants those messages heard, but it really makes my heart hpppy when people can see Tom in that light of having compassion an empathy for others, I will say this again and again I think time is a very empathetic person, I truly believe and I've listened to every single CD he's put out I own them all, today's empath we are affected by the world around us more so than people who aren't because we can feel all that negative energy and angst, and it leads us to finding coping mechanisms aren't healthy like drugs and alcohol because it's the only thing that block those feelings. I don't know if you take requests for song reaction but if you do I request these if not I still think you should check them out on your own if you haven't seen him yet I tell everybody to check them out who does Tom reactions. There are two that I think are just super telling about Tom's character and who he is as a person. The first one is his spoken word NOT ALONE the second is his song HANGMAN. Not alone is his spoken word that I just can't imagine how anyone would not like Tom after they see that, hangman's a little harder to watch I think it does show his ability but it's a little more dark because during his initial relapse after he got sober, but the reason I say that song is because well I think in that song how the outside world affects him. Anyways amazing reaction as always.

“Making this music for conversation” Big Facts

I'm 51 yrs old now but always grown up taking everyone at face value even though family members friends and strangers around me would come out with racial slurs and joke's..my immediate family taught me to take everyone at face value so I've grown up to ignore the ignorant. If I grew up in a multi cultural area I would of spoken out more but I grew up in a white area. As I've gotten older I let people know I won't stand or want to hear anything negative about other races and cultures.. I'd have reasons to have bigotry as I use to attend n all Black boxing gym and was the only white boxer there..I recieved racist comments on a daily basis from the other guys in the gym.. this slowly diminished over a few months as they realized I weren't rising to it and when they sparred with me realized they wouldn't get away with any liberties.. Long story short we all became friends and got invited to parties and backstreet clubs. Truth is we're all Born into slavery and control.. the people who run the world are the 1% and the only way they can control us is by dividing us..these people can be traced back to Egyptian time's they operate under many guises but nowadays they own everything. Which is why its harder for people to wake up. I live in Hope over the next few years it's crucial we've only got a few years to defeat them.

I agree that once you have your first child you mature at record speed. You also realize that their brain is like a sponge soaking up everything around them. This is your chance to make sure they are soaking up the right information. It is imperative that every person teach their children right from wrong from an early age. They still need to learn history and know what happened in the past. Because knowledge is power. And we all need the knowledge to keep past mistakes from repeating.

Wow TRUTH.

#HOGarmy I was born in '73 and by the late 80s, I just had friends. I didnt think of any single one as a black guy or a white guy. They were just my friends. I heard r.acist things from my dad, but saw quickly that what was said and what I saw were vastly different. I made a conscious decision that those prejudices wouldnt continue thru and beyond me. So now, you got my back? Sweet, I got yours, too, 'til they put me down in that grave and I aint changing. Screw a skin color, becauee i only see friends or enemies, period. Most people I knew back in the late 80s/early 90's felt the same as me. Then something went wrong around 2008, when the last big recession hit. Sadly, I watched all my generation's efforts collapse. Suddenly, everybody wanted to divide themselves into the smallest group possible for no good reason. It just makes me sad that we lost all the progress, and are way worse off now than then.😢
