This song was like a triple shot of expresso for me. Today I was so depressed I just ran out of energy and took a four hour nap. After I watched this I was hyped as F*CK!
Honestly, I think this is one of the best songs he's dropped. This shit gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. Low key already know it word for word, Its been on repeat all day 😂
It has a bigger meaning behind aswell i think. It's not just you can't effect me, but i think he went for i acknowledge the darkness around me but you can't stop me from finding my way.
Who is the rapper ballsy enough to give his alter ego, depression and manifestation of all of his anxiety equal mic time. He's amplifying his insecurities with a track and promoting it so he can fight back. This is a rap battle between Tom and his mental health. And giving those negative thoughts equal time time, saying the most horrible, under handed, low blows. Only people with anxiety understand that voice. The things its willing to say to you. This was transformative and special. Production as well.
@JuicyMusicprod sort of a pedantic point but you are correct. I meant to say Anxiety Disorder. If you're lucky enough to not see yours in the mirror anymore, be glad you're not a sufferer of severe chronic mental disorder that is a lifelong struggle. Yes, anxiety can leave you. If it does, it's not a disorder though. A disorder is, by definition, a chronic case that overpowers you, and usually irrationally.
@JuicyMusicprod same. And ostensibly, neither will Tom's. He fights his own demons to inspire us to break our own. To stand up to our own. To not compromise. This teared me up inside. How happily the ego is ragging on him. How smug the ego is. The phrase "you can't lie to me" has so many layers of truth.
literally everyone has anxiety. Even animals have anxiety. It’s a natural function. The problem isn’t anxiety, it’s the fact that we’re anxious for no reason. Always in this hyped up fight or flight mode. I have it too, I’m conscious of it while it’s happening but can’t stop it...
@JuicyMusicprod yes. I’m saying anxiety is a natural function of the body for everyone. The disorder is when we get anxiety for no reason at all and go into panic/fight or flight mode uncontrollably with no real threat around.
He need to worry about him n stop comparing himself to tom. We all think songs are written for us. But I think he just trying to get hit for the compare.
I want to hear this guys song, that Tom stole.......lol I’m sure Tom hacked into his computer and took that song....what is he actually trying to say? That the songs sound similar or just straight up stollen, i have never even heard of this guy he was just in my feed all of a sudden.
love the fact that the first time the hook hits it's just him... and the second time you hear it both sides are singing it and 'bad tom' almost seems like he's MOCKING his words. MAN I have repeated this vid of his and I keep seeing SO MUCH MORE each time. EVERYONE goes through this and he is just spitting it out. I FEEL this one on ALL levels. Great react!
He wasn't telling us he's the best rapper, he is trying to tell himself...imo And damn, God bless you Crypt, but you starting to sound like a fan! Welcome to the HOG family my brother! (Mac won't mind,lol) Can't walt to hear yours!
@@TenkiRyu he means you are stating something very obvious and because he does this fairly often (not taking away from the value and meaning of the song just stating a fact)
@@centipedicmonster5084Yeah I tend to state the obvious. His other videos with his demon/alter ego is not at all like this one. More like he wants to move forward without it.
I think the telling thing is that he’s saying he’s done these things, but we all know he’s jealous because of Tom’s talent and lines! He’s obviously trying to claim Tom’s masterpiece and craft as his own and saying “oh it falls in line with my song”!
Everybody complaining about how Crypt was surprised about how similar he and Tom's problems are. He's quite obviously not dissing Tom over the fact that they have similar problems, he's probably just amazed by how similar both of their problems and the way they express them are.
I was impressed as well. Can't wait to hear your song and I look forward to your insights on struggles. Identifying with lyrics help me know I'm not alone and since I'm not an artist I feel like you guys express what I can't. 🙏❤️
Tom been growing on true hip hop heads because his ability steadily improving constantly. This song is so far his absolute best. This song will hit with regular people on stop many levels. Drugs, depression, and anxiety, and to address it all in one go, was masterfully created. This was am amazing track IMO.
This track is fighting with No response as my favourite Tom track of 2020! Ive watched so many reactions and i still get goosebumps. Can't wait to see your track as well! it probably sounds just as sick loved thape reaction, cheers👏
Glad to see you liked it man! Your both amazing, creative artists and it's cool to see you showing respect!! Much love man, keep dropping them bangers!
@@omgpancakesyum The only thing I heard from this comment is. “Oh I’m a butthurt troll on the internet that doesn’t want anyone to like this new song that Tom Macdonald created”. That’s the only thing I read. I must be blind or something. Hint: This is me telling you that no one cares if it is an exact copy or not. (Which it isn’t by the way)
Dude your reaction to this song is the funniest shit I have seen all week 🤣🤣 the confusion in your face is priceless 😂 even if you have a song similar to toms am sure it will be fire bro 🔥🔥
It’s ok Crypt. Great minds think alike. At least it’s Tom and he won’t trash you and accuse you of biting his shit like the majority of other artists would.
You’ve got some of the best reaction because you don’t just say everything is dope. I like that you actually give your opinion on what you like and don’t like. You and layedbak keep it real.
Bro your reactions are so unique, genuine and you’re just freaking awesome! Do disagree with the hook thing tho, I loved it. Great video! Happy holidays!
Out of all the reactors I've seen so so far on this video, youre the first one to mention he gets bigger when he starts talking back to his demon. You have a keen eye there guy 👌 great artists think alike bruh
"this is falling in line with the song that I have ALREADY MADE, and its coming out next year WHEN IM DONE WRITING IT" lol just release it we will listen
The two things I love most about this vid is how, in the second hook, his good side is rapping confidently and his bad side is rapping along mockingly. And how Tom isn't actually claiming to be the best rapper ever, but it's something he needs to truly believe about himself to keep the demons in check. Awesome track, Tom!
Is it just me or is Tom a mad man for titling "Best rapper alive" and having all these reactions with the titles saying "Tom Mcdonald best rapper ever" lmao
in order to fight your own personal demons you have to believe that you are the best.... If you don't believe in yourself then you're losing the battle...you have to fight hard when battling your personal demons, they fight dirty.....this was pure 🔥🔥🔥 Nova did the damn thing.... Power couple for sure.... This was a MASTER PIECE 🔥🔥🔥 Nice reaction, glad you coming around to Tom ❤️
This song is about the duality of dark and light each and every single one of us face at one time or another in life, if not every single day. When you understand that, you understand that God and the Devil are one person and that one person is you. He has to remind himself that if he doesn't truly believe he's the best rapper ever, in his own mind, he'll never achieve that goal. It's the weapon he uses to win the impossible fight against himself. The sword in the stone, if you will. He is portraying the inner fight and paranoia and is recognizing that at the end of the day he is his own competition and his own worst enemy. He's not ripping Eminem off. If anything he's paying homage to My Darling and Guilty Conscience. Tom has praised him many times as an influencer and his inspiration to do what he's doing. He even directly says "You're not Eminem!". This is most likely because Tom is a Caucasian hip-hop/rap artist. Imagine the comparisons he hears every single day just because of those two simple factors. The brilliant move behind him dropping a new song titled Best Rapper Ever on the day one of the best rappers to ever exist is an unfounded strategy clearly working in his favor. As of last night he surpassed every song on Eminem's new album leading #1 on the iTunes chart the day of it's release. That's a phenomenal accomplishment that no one can take from him regardless how you feel about him as a person or an artist. We are literally watching Tom and Nova's legacies as they are being built right in front of us. Their work comes to fruition so seamlessly. It's an unstoppable union and Nova deserves credit where credit is due. She's a powerhouse of talent, creativity, and vision in her own right. They both are and together they've already elevated the bar that other rapper's, even some of the greats, have failed to raise. Complacency can be a killer of careers in the entertainment industry. People tend to lose respect for artists because the material they deliver eventually goes stale. I don't believe that will be the case with this team. Tom and Nova have a way of pulling you out of your comfort zone in such a way but you can't help but be captivated and before you even realize what happened you're hooked. The vulnerability and raw emotion is where rap started. It began as a way to tell stories of real life and daily struggle while incorporating rhythm, beat, and rhyme. Tom embodies the true essence of what it means to an entire culture and stays true it's origin while pioneering new ideas, standards, and knocking down the walls that have been built around the genre. Best of luck to them both and I hope people will be able to see beyond the surface and feel the message they try to convey🖤
OMG the raw flow combines perfectly with the story behind this song it all comes together to creat a captivating video its impressive coz not many ppl can do this
I like his verses but hooks ruin many of his tracks for me. But of course nothing can stop me from liking music I like, so I use audio editors to crop out the hooks 🤣. Some are cool though, this hook was half good with rock style, the autotune singing part was wack. The one in I don't care was decent too. But yeah, I usually crop out hooks if I really want to keep any of his song
I am so glad you touched on the size difference with him getting bigger as he is coming back at his demon no other reactors noticed it. This song and video was amazing. Your reaction was point on man.
And NF does a song where he’s talking to himself in a mirror before Tom did no disrespect to Tom not saying he copied cuz Tom is a beast and he does him
@@mhnd1388 Tell me how? I just listened to both. Can't see anything copied, different beats, lyrics not the same. The only thing they both do is talking to "themselves", that's not copying a song. So give me some examples I can look at.
Original video: ua-cam.com/video/9y4IAdZ8srA/v-deo.html
Man I was genuinely impressed with this song. How y'all feeling?
Whats up crypt I got a question for your opinion does this sound like eminem song called my darling
Hey Crypt, I'm really digging how you are enjoying watching this. The video kicks ass and the songs really good,
will you react to gameshow by ubi ever?
This song was like a triple shot of expresso for me. Today I was so depressed I just ran out of energy and took a four hour nap. After I watched this I was hyped as F*CK!

Nova outdid herself with this video dude. this is by far her best camera work. She just gets better with every video.
I love watching her work grow along with his. It's marvelous!
hol up they're a her ?
I hate hip hop was narly too. IDK which is better
@@Inspiredbyluci they're a team. His girl does all his videos. Its just the two of them. Go listen to No Response!
@@user-pw5do6tu7i People So Stupid, Buttholes, both favorites of mine. What she sees in her head is what happens on screen. It's crazy! 🤩🤘
Nova murdered the video as much as Tom did the track. They're legit killing it together.
still the best quote,
"I'm the darkness"
"yeah I got night vison"
Show up to a gunfight knife swingin right before is almost just as fire haha whole song is fire
It has a bigger meaning behind aswell i think. It's not just you can't effect me, but i think he went for i acknowledge the darkness around me but you can't stop me from finding my way.
Does Crpyt realize this song beat Eminems whole new album on The I tunes charts???? It hit and held the Number 1 spot for like 3 days #HOG4LIFE
Who is the rapper ballsy enough to give his alter ego, depression and manifestation of all of his anxiety equal mic time. He's amplifying his insecurities with a track and promoting it so he can fight back.
This is a rap battle between Tom and his mental health. And giving those negative thoughts equal time time, saying the most horrible, under handed, low blows.
Only people with anxiety understand that voice. The things its willing to say to you.
This was transformative and special. Production as well.

Yes, anxiety can leave you. If it does, it's not a disorder though.

He fights his own demons to inspire us to break our own. To stand up to our own. To not compromise.

This dude drinking McDonalds while he listens to Macdonald 😂😂😂
"Tom? Are you in my room?" That shit had me crying 😂| Love your music and videos man. Keep it up!
I get the feeling, people are always stealing my songs that no one knew existed yet. But silver linings at least Tom elevated it to a level you can't
Crypt like "fuck everyone gonna to think I stole his idea."
He need to worry about him n stop comparing himself to tom.

“I don’t know if I can even put out the song now” 😂🤣😂 bro this made me crack the fuck up for some reason
Jordan I have seen ur comments on other videos hehee, fyi and also I like it comments
It is about him over coming his demons and being his best self.
but also some of his best songs channel energy from the demon... and he has to reconcile that.

loved thape reaction, cheers👏
I agree!! No response for me is the best song hes done this year tho! But i respect your opinion! Great to see others are Big fans of Tom as well!
Same here. My two favorite TM songs!
This song is really good, but no response is just something else entirely, I doubt if he can ever top no response
Bro great reaction. I been watching you and tom for a couple years now. Im so glad you two ain't beefing anymore. I really like both of yalls music
Tom killed it. I felt this shit like for real, for real.
Glad to see you liked it man! Your both amazing, creative artists and it's cool to see you showing respect!! Much love man, keep dropping them bangers!
This whole concept reminds me of NF intro 3. Toms talking to the devil/his demons nf was his fear. Still dope asf
Tom music hits me in a way only second to NF.
Same I instantly thought “Oh wow this is like Tom Macdonald’s Intro III”
i said the same thing to my one friend after i hear this. similar but both are good in their own way
Toms song is a direct copy/ripoff of Eminem’s My Darling song. Exact copy.

They did great! Let it inspire you
We would love to see your song too
Dude your reaction to this song is the funniest shit I have seen all week 🤣🤣 the confusion in your face is priceless 😂 even if you have a song similar to toms am sure it will be fire bro 🔥🔥
All Tom Macdonald songs are a megaphone of truth.
Just release it and don't worry about it. These things happens.
Definitely
Battling with yourself is a common theme anyway. It’s prevalent in like half of Twenty-One Pilots’ discography
Its like a sign from the universe saying you two need to collab. Both on the SAME frequency miles apart and all
Talking to his depression. Gives me Intro 3 vibes from NF or Mass of Man
Your review got me excited to check it out
Rappers Tryn'a Diss Tom MacDonald
Tom MacDonald : Hold my Tea Bitches !
Lol yes sir
I can't wait to see your new one!!!!! Synchronicities should never be ignored.
It’s ok Crypt. Great minds think alike. At least it’s Tom and he won’t trash you and accuse you of biting his shit like the majority of other artists would.
It’s not toms idea. Intro 3 by NF, my darling and bad guy by Eminem just to name a few
Great minds think for themselves. That's what makes them great
Crypt is a joke lmao
Can't wait to hear your song!!

I’ve genuinely never seen crypt this blown away and into a video like this and out of all artists it’s Tom Macdonald good job Tom
Well it is "his video" and "his song"
Hell yes so Glad you did this one this Has to be one of my favorite Tom songs

@@DeathWish92 yeah, crypt does always criticize Tom’s hook arrangements, but somehow he loves mclethal’s... 🤦
@@yonosenada1773 in all honestly Id choose lethal over Tom. He's too corny for me personally.

Kind of a modern version of Em's "My Darling", but Tom did it without totally looking like he was biting.
Exactly
FINALLY im not the only one who noticed !!!
I think it was a cool homage though.
He isn't em
This song is exactly like NFs Intro 3 though.
Shoutout to Nova for her video design, editing, and over all genius. Tom and Nova really are the perfect duo together!

We're our own best critics and Tom doesn't afraid to show it. This is lit.

Finished this and clicked on another one of your videos, then got the entire Tom macdonald song as an ad, well played UA-cam
Here for CRYPT!!!
Yo
Just listened to your track "My Name" and I'm convinced that you and Tom need to collab because y'all are on the same wavelength or something bro.
Im lovin the frailty in his voice in the beginning. Like hes truly struggling with this evil side
The two things I love most about this vid is how, in the second hook, his good side is rapping confidently and his bad side is rapping along mockingly. And how Tom isn't actually claiming to be the best rapper ever, but it's something he needs to truly believe about himself to keep the demons in check. Awesome track, Tom!

awesome remark!
This song is about the duality of dark and light each and every single one of us face at one time or another in life, if not every single day. When you understand that, you understand that God and the Devil are one person and that one person is you.

I like his verses but hooks ruin many of his tracks for me. But of course nothing can stop me from liking music I like, so I use audio editors to crop out the hooks 🤣. Some are cool though, this hook was half good with rock style, the autotune singing part was wack. The one in I don't care was decent too. But yeah, I usually crop out hooks if I really want to keep any of his song
@@kingclint2382 Well that is your opinion. Some people think pizza is trash, luckily the few don't represent the many
The visual of both sides merging at the end is EPIC
I was shocked when he mentioned joey nato. Joey is a heavy hitter too.
The channel has his name in it bruh
Bruh...
I was talking about joey nato bruh!
Bruh!
@@mattnobrega6621 HE RUNS THIS CHANNEL WITH JOEY NATO
I am so glad you touched on the size difference with him getting bigger as he is coming back at his demon no other reactors noticed it. This song and video was amazing. Your reaction was point on man.
And NF does a song where he’s talking to himself in a mirror before Tom did no disrespect to Tom not saying he copied cuz Tom is a beast and he does him
He copied intro 3
@@mhnd1388 Tell me how? I just listened to both. Can't see anything copied, different beats, lyrics not the same. The only thing they both do is talking to "themselves", that's not copying a song. So give me some examples I can look at.
When you talk about your song, my BS alarm sounds.
Interestingly enough, this song hit No.1 on iTunes over the whole Em album.
yep, ballsy of Tom to release an album the same day as Eminem and crazy that he passed up all 15 of eminem's songs to take the #1 spot
You both killed this project
