The part when he says “I’ll be here for you if things get worse” hits hard for me. It is such a cool way to tell the younger Nate that he never kills himself.

I think it's crazy how he basically tells his younger self major advice for life, but mostly just in a general way, so that IF past-Nate could hear this, he could maybe handle a few things better, BUT on this track he doesn't really throw spoilers out there and doesn't tell everything that's gonna happen exactly. I mean for example that he doesn't say that his mother will die, that's why he said "skip track no.4", because for his character development he shouldn't be prepared for this to happen

By the way Nate talks to his fans on some sort of social media platform about his new album after it dropped. He talks about his favorite song was interlude followed by I hate myself and Nate. He says that after the perception tour that he was really depressed and suicidal. He checked himself in somewhere for 4 days and that's where he wrote those 2 songs. Nate was an exercise he was ask to do about what he would tell himself when he was younger. Pretty interesting. He's pretty straight forward when it comes to his music.

The part about Young Nate taking a lot of hits can also be references to the physical abuse he would go through from his mom's boyfriend.

Literally my favorite song on The Search finally getting reacted by my favorite reactor. 🤘🏼

He wrote this song while in therapy last year, and one of the assignment was 'what would you say to your younger self'.

Nate always tying or mentioning other songs or albums into his songs mentioned all of these in this one, trauma, moments, therapy session, perception

The joke at the beginning. It was the worst... And I laughed about it😂

This track hits me like a truck 😭😭

He came up on Christian radio/marketing and tours/festivals is himself a Christian. He is a Christian artist by definition.

Shane M depends on what your definition of Christian music is. The content of his music especially in the last 3 albums doesn’t really touch much on faith or god other than mentions of it here and there. He hasn’t made a full song about faith (at least not one i can think of) since mansion. Someone like lecrae I see as a Christian rapper or gospel rapper because he actually has his faith in the fore front of a lot of his music and that’s my personal distinction.

I know, we're on the Lupe train now but you should really do a reaction on Hate myself - NF. But make sure listening to NFs Interlude before you listen to Hate myself. Anyways. As always a excellent breakdown. I really enjoy your style of "reaction" video. It's very satisfying watching your videos due to you actually listening and interpreting the lyrics of the songs and not just the song as a whole. Additionally: For me as a non native english speaker your breakdowns really help me understand a lot of rap songs, especially the really bar heavy ones, where one double entendre follows another. So thanks for that as well :D

This video hit a little too close to home. I try not to fall down the rabbit hole, but I definitely understand hitting career goals then feeling like "what does any of this even mean?", especially with the recent passing of my dad. Worked hard his entire life just to be diagnosed with a terminal illness 2 months before his retirement and 2.5 years later he's gone never getting the chance to kick his feet up and enjoy the fruits of his labor. This is life huh? Work hard then die. I can't mess with you NF cause this is a dangerous space to be mentally, but I really like him and hope he can always get whatever help he needs.

this channel is my top favorite channel for reactions he speaks about it with an open mind and keeps it real and breaks it down perfectly

So I've been listening to Nate a lot recently, and I feel the expanse of emptiness infront of me, with a city behind me, as in I have what I've dealed with as I am now, and what I have in my past. But the future is empty, like an empty canvas ready to be painted. Especially with this song. Anyone else?

I saw NF on Oct 1 perform this song, it was so beautiful as he sang to an empty chair with young Nate on the screen behind him. Amazing live performer.

Been waiting for you!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Glad to see ya back.

Thanks💜 Always look forward to your breakdowns. Oh Lord is one of my favorites by Nate. No Name and Outcast also.

I have to admit... I totally laughed out loud at Nate-thirty. So glad to have you review this song and have to say, I look forward to all your breakdowns, it is awesome to have someone point out bits that are missed in both lyrics and music videos that make what you have just heard/seen even better. Keep it up, totally my fav channel. PS: totally liked this video before I heard it all... always a guaranteed win here.
