NF doesn’t do drugs, his family was full of addicts and it hurt him deeply

The first line of his song Change: "I don't do drugs, I'm addicted to the pain tho." Nf has a lot to say, and a story that makes you actually listen... "Real" or "All I Have" is a good introduction to NF. "Remember This" and "If You Want Love" are kinda what NF is about along with "Therapy Session" (the song, not the album.) "Mansion" and "Change" (no music videos) tell us more about NF's headspace. And "Story" is a practical defense of 2A rights and cops.

NF, for many reasons is considered an outcast by the hip hop and rap genre. 1) his lyrical content isn't about materialistic things, arrogance, or violent/sexual acts 2) he never curses 3) he's white and mislabeled a Christian rapper 4) Doesn't use drugs or alcohol 5) raps about emotional trauma and introspective thoughts associated to mental health. However, his fanbase is incredibly loyal and committed, and his numbers do excellent... so they have to go out of their way to ignore him.

This is my interpretation of this song. NF is a Christian who doesn't curse or use drugs. The people dressed in black are fighting their demons ( Burdens) and the people in white still have burdens but they are now living with them in the light instead of in the darkness by giving their burdens to God. In the end he is contemplating turning over a couple burdens to God.

I agree with this. I also think In this video, there are two lines of people in white. So, if you’re going to live in the light, you have two choices. Put on a fake smile and hide your burdens, or pick up your burdens. He’s still in the dark, hiding his burdens, but going his own direction forward, not killing around aimlessly in the light.

His whole album here goes through giving up his burdens to God, just to reassure you. This was a super positive ending for him. But you'd have to do more songs to know everything this was wrapping up from his struggle on that front.

NF doesn't struggle with drugs, he only struggles with the fact that he lost his mother to drugs. NF is so in line with this channel, it is grounded in reality and heavily influenced be God. He just carries burdens from his past like we all do. Please react to more of his songs and he is coming out with more music!

That’s the song that first introduced me to NF. It’s still a top fave of mine.

He's not chasing fame. The song he sent fame was, "Leave me alone," that's why fame wasn't a fan of the song.

Other songs from NF - “ Mansion “, “Wake Up”, “ All I Have”, “Therapy Session”, “How could you leave us”, “Outcast”, “If you want Love”, “Why”, “Time”, “When I grow up”

NF's music is all about his life and things he truly goes through. He states in one of his songs that if you don't want to know about him, then to get out of his diary, which means don't listen to his music as that is his diary. You really need to get on the NF train and start at the beginning. This way, you can understand him more and better interpret his lyrics. I hope to see more NF music reviews and breakdowns from you.

As so many have said NF doesn't do drugs and as far as I know never has. He has a line in another song talking about doctors trying to get him on meds to help him mentally but he avoids them (medication). Your perspective on his conversation with Fame is interesting but NF mentions Fame all throughout his music and is pretty clear that he isn't motivated by that, in this song he says "he (Fame) asked me how I've been, I sent him this song" the song is Leave Me Alone, so he's telling Fame to leave him alone. Jumping into this song is hard because NF is one of the few artists you really NEED to go back and listen to his music in order to fully understand his newer music. Great reaction keep reacting to NF please!

You gotta take the NF journey now…no drugs, just a lot of trama and relatable mental struggles.

I hope you do your research on NF before you do another video. Us NF fans know his background. His mother is dead from an OD. He discusses in his songs not wanting to take prescription drugs to deal with his own MH for fear of becoming addicted to them, then leading him down the path of illicit drug use. We listen to NF because we can relate to the words in his rap songs. Lastly, you have to watch his videos in order. They always tell their own stories.

From what I understand, NF is giving up his burdens to Christ. He is a Christian. From listening to a few of his other songs and hearing his story, you'll find out he's strongly against drugs, because his mother overdosed when he was a kid. His struggle is more with mental health and social pressure than with drugs, alcohol, etc. That's why he's so popular, because he covers mental and psychological issues, which in fact is the root of addictions, which in turn relates to more people. Everyone has things they deal with. He points out that Christ is the way of fighting those issues.

One thing you really need to consider when trying to interoperate NF is that each album is a book, each song a chapter. There is a proper context to his work. One cannot fully appreciate his music without experiencing all of them. The one exception might be Story Time, but even that has a context within the album.

I haven’t clicked on a video so fast in a while. More reactions to NF, please.

His mother died of pill overdose when he was a teenager. He has remained clean because of that. His burdens are psychological at nature and doesnt have any sort of drug addiction.

Would love to see a reaction to NF's song "Oh Lord." Has some powerful lines about this world and our relationship to God. Great video as always! I'm a big fan of NF and Michael Knowles, so these videos are always a treat.

He doesn't or ever had a drug problem. His mother did whom ODed from pills. It affected him greatly. He was physically abused as a kid as well. React to How Could You Leave Us and Mansion. Those 2 songs will really give you some insight why he is the way he is.

You need to watch how could you leave us. That’s going to explain so much of all of his music.

Leave me alone is one of my absolute favorites because it just really helped me in a lot of ways much like it helped other people. I grew up listening to him and his music has really saved my life completely. I'm truly grateful for what he does. Realmusic!🗝

Please listen to "All I have" by NF. First song he posted to his channel like 8-9 years ago and was the first song I ever heard and hes been my favorite artist ever since. NF is a Christian and doesnt do drugs and wont even try legal drugs that are supposed to help with his mental bc his family had drug addiction problems so he goes no where near them. Love seeing two of my worlds cross here

Yes!!!! I'm so glad you're doing this one! This song will help explain the balloons better. I love this song! I can't wait, I love your music reactions!

Totally clean rapper! All around! Language, body and soul! Struggling with PTSD and OCD. Start with mansions will explain a lot!

Plenty of artists have shown that Rap is art, but NF has really mastered the craft of making solid music while being vulnerable and relatable

If you are going to start this NF journey let us help you. You have to start at the beginning. This will be a ride you will never forget and you will be a better person at the end of it. That’s “Real” 🖤

Mansion, how could you leave us, all I have , intro1, 2 and 3. It doesn’t matter witch one. Just more NF!!!

NF doesn’t do drugs, and is very against them, because they killed his mom. He’s also turned down “fame” in several songs, and I think everyone who is saying that the text convo is of him sending this song to “fame” as a response, is probably correct, it fits with the running storyline. A previous album had him saying to “fame” to wait til he got to album 4, because he wasn’t ready to talk yet. While he has older music, this is considered to be album 4, so this is his response to that postponed convo. Other than that, I’m loving these NF music reaction videos. His songs have meant so much to so many of us. #REALmusic ♥️🙌🏻

Yeah, no drugs. Even someone drunk makes him nervous. His mom OD'ed so he won't touch drugs. So glad to see you do more NF! I think you'd like Lost, feat. Hopsin.

NF isn’t a drug addict. He’s mother died from a drug overdose from painkillers he addresses this in his song “how could you leave us”. Also Nate is a very religious Christian.

The hand could also represent God as he says in change "last year I felt suicidal this year I might do something different like talking to God more", and in his song Nate, he says "If you have questions or you need advice then talk to God...". He is also dressed in black cause he is afraid of letting go of his burdens and cause he views himself as unworthy of forgiveness and as an outcast.

Symbolizing a clean slate once you place your trust in God. NF doesn’t get the Gospel perfect, but he illustrates it in a way with this song.

NF was never into drugs. His mother was an addict who died of an overdose and his father was physically abusive to him and his family. He even said he stays away from anyone who does drugs or drinks.

Love the music video reactions. You have an interesting take on them all. Your intro to these is always so funny.

Hey Michael, you definitely need to check out NF - "How Could You Leave Us" and "Oh Lord".

I always enjoy your reactions. You always dissect songs so thoroughly and notice things I wouldn’t have picked up on. Also, I really liked the editing of this video. Great work!

You need to start at the beginning of the NF journey. He's got 4 albums that are literally a journey through is mind and his life. Start with the Mansion album: Intro, Mansion, Wake Up. Next is the Therapy Session album: Intro 2, Therapy session, How could you leave us, Real. The Perception Album is next: Intro III, Outcast, Let you Down, Outro. Finally is the one you started with which is "The Search" album: The search, Leave me alone, Change, Nate, Time. He's got a newer album called Clouds. It's the first album that deviates from his typical story about his life and past and focuses on his present. A lot of great hits on that one but the only one that you really NEED to listen to is paid my dues IMO because it's a response to people getting ticked off that his Search album did so well. He basically in one month wrote that song and it SLAPS. Long story short Michael, if you're going to dig into NF and make judgements on what you think he's saying, give yourself more context and start at the beginning. Your views will skyrocket in the process. I'd title the series "NF Journey: *insert name of song here*" But you do you. Much love

You gotta listen to his next song Change. There’s no music video but it actually acknowledges and answers a lot of questions about the past two songs (religion, drugs, mental health, fame etc.) I highly recommend

Michael needs to watch how could you leave us cause then he will understand NF a whole lot more

The editing on this reaction is amazing

“I may take a thought and think it so profound” and ppl tell me to stop obsessing. I totally feel him. I’m sick of being told to not think and just obey.

I know its been said but just so it keeps standing out. NF does not have drug issues and it’s unfortunate that some may take that away from these reactions.

PROPS to the editor for continuing themed music to build dramatism during music video pauses while Michael if commentating. SOLID, Thanks - Godpseed

NF doesn't drink, do drugs, or swear in his songs. He's also Christian.

and he has OCD yes

This guy is definitely growing on me. I’m right in the same boat as you with the total song count,Michael. I look forward to future analyses on NF’s work but I’d also love to see you expand to further artists both signed in the music industry and independent on KZread.

Poor Mr. Knowles... he looks so disturbed lol. Exactly how I felt when I realized that the cacophony resounded with the stress inside of me.

Without any prior knowledge of NF, I thought that Michael did an excellent job of breaking down the lyrics and video and some of the potential meanings behind them. Great job!

To understand NF, here is the COMPLETE lists/links for the NF journey *MUSIC VIDEOS: like mini movies and mostly are interconnected *pay attention to the music videos until the end *there are foreshadowing and symbolisms in the MV's Welcome to "the NF CINEMATIC universe" NF_2015_Mansion_01_Intro kzread.info/dash/bejne/iG2Yq7itn9uvqdI.html NF_2015_Mansion_02_Mansion ft.

Michael you should make a series like Matt where you react to more songs

I feel like NF is part of the counter counter culture and I'm a huge fan

Nf doesn’t do drugs. His mom died of a drug overdose. You should really review that song he wrote about it. It’s heartbreaking. It’s called How could you leave us.

Everything in a NF video has meaning.. even down to the colors used.. like the colors of the clothing... the dark colors represent his depression and anxiety, pretty much his "dark" side, while the white clothes represent his light side... so the ending with him handing his balloons (burdens) over is really him letting go of his depression and anxiety and finally making the choice to be happy... thats why we dont see who he's handing the balloons to, because its himself, just his lighter, happy side, which leads into his next album "hope", where he's ditched the dark clothes for white clothes... its him subliminally telling, not just his fans, but himself that he's taking control of his life and he's gonna make himself happy, whether he is or isnt

I need Michael to do a live stream where he just listens to NF’s entire discography and reacts to all of them from Moments to the EP to Mansion and on
