Infatuated from Flint Michigan USA. .Beth's a 🦊 fox... Cool talented and funny.. Subbed today but been fan of your reactions for a while ,now your covers and your own music...Really liking Anxiety society , I'm not living? And one where you have different versions of beth as different people.. maybe animated, I forget... Anyway --- HEYYYAAAYY BETH ❤ .. KEEP IT UP
Since you're already appreciating his message and overall talent, I suggest you do follow the listening order so when you get to Hope, you'll appreciate it all even more than just doing that one early.
Over the years, he has built up many recurring themes, images and linguistic tools that he revisits in later work, especially Hope. Seeing and hearing these build adds depth to the more current songs.
Hey Beth long time sub of yours, cool to see you do something a little "out of the box"! I've listened to NF for years and I highly recommend to watch all of his material in order. He uses a ton of repeating metaphors and visuals. It's really quite the experience. I think most recommend starting with the song "Mansion" which is a fantastic song.
4:59 he says leaving my burdens, well I brought a few with me. And points to the balloons. Such a good metaphor because we know burdens weigh you down. So the shopping cart or trolley seems empty but not quite.
Excellent reaction! It makes sense that you heard NF in your exercise routine - many of his tracks are on my workout playlist. Incredible artist of remarkable depth / substance (not to mention SKILL)... and, as you noted, production value 🔥🖤🤍
You hit the nail on the head with the shopping cart metaphor, he basically logs it around with the black balloons, which to him are his burdens, so he has to take them everywhere he goes! I think this was one of the best breakdown reactions I’ve seen. Great work! Look forward to seeing more from NF possibly!
Black balloons represent his burdens. He used so much symbolism in his vids. Loved ur reaction to NF Would love to see u do album reviews. I’m sure I’m not the only one who would listen to each song with u. Albums Mansion Theory session Perception The Search Clouds the mix tape Hope NF=GOAT
"The balloons are holding him back." ...so true! his burdens are holding him back. I'd never been into rap before NF, and only NF. I love his singing voice too 😌 But even more so appreciate his ongoing search for hope in his life. Makes you self reflect a lot. I'm excited for you to experience his emotional journey...he's come a long way! 🥰
Welcome to the Outcasts! You dont find NF, NF finds you when you don't even realize you need it. Hoping to see you take the full NF journey, definitely earned a new sub for it. P.S. if you see this, I'm curious as to what song it was you heard that made you cry? There's so many for me personally.
I've never been a big fan of rap, but NF really hits different. He's so raw with his self expression, and he raps about difficult subjects instead of meaningless hedonism. Remember This is my favorite of his songs (at least right now). So cool to see you cover him!
I would absolutely love to see your full NF journey starting with his very first video, it's all connected. There are visual references in this to other tracks.
i really appreciated that blurb about Tommee Profitt.. i don't think he gets enough flowers for how much he's done for Nate. He has his own YT Channel and has often left comments on random reactions to Nate's music that he did the music for and leaves the kindest words. then his own behind-the-scenes short videos on how he does the music are so fun to watch also.. and always ending his cocktail of all the musical instruments with saying "then the last magic ingredient, Nate".. he's a wonderful man who, in many ways, i think had a major hand in who Nate is today, almost like a proud father/family member, who saw the potential in Nate and never left his side whenever needed. We need more #TommeeProfitt 's in this world. #NFRealMusic
HIs producer Tommee Profitt is amazing along with NF their combo of hip hop/storytelling and cinematics is soo cool. I suggest in December you check out some of Tommee's Christmas stuff from the King is Born concert! It will give ya chills for sure! Love your reactions Beth!
I have listedned to hundreds of NF reactions but I truly applaud the extra effort you put into this one and hope you will do many more. Welcome to our world!
NF is my favorite rapper for 3 reasons 1. He never curses and i can listen to him around my family. 2. He talks about real life and real problems instead of girls and cars and stuff. 3. His flow is kinda different and makes me feel this motivationish feeling
Here we go, people! Wait until Beth sees the literary techniques and metaphors that NF spent three full albums building for us from the ground up and then used to bring us into his mind (mansion) for a therapy session. Also, his technique got so much better from the first to the latest. You could tell he was in the lab before he wrote a love song to his notebook, but that solidified it.
My daughter got me into him and I took her to his live show. I didn’t know much about him at the time. He was absolutely incredible live and made me a fan immediately. I’ve since dove in to his catalog and it’s all so impressive. Loved that he did his show with a live drummer. I will definitely see him many more times.
NF!!! Yesss!! The more you listen the more he explains things. His music is often referencing other songs. I’d say the balloons are talked about more in Leave Me Alone. I think Hope references all his albums and seasons and the video is pretty amazing. The more you listen, the more you appreciate the nuggets that he puts in his songs. Thanks for reacting. It’s always fun to watch and share the amazement at someone’s artistry.
Subbed for more NF> What a treat to hear you analyze an NF song. This song is a masterpiece. Believe it or not the next one might be even better! This song and video story goes on in the next song, Leave Me Alone where we learn more about the people in white and the black balloons.
Hey @BethRoars, I can't begin to say how excited I was to see you cover NF. I'm not a rap/hip hop fan but I've been fascinated with his work. I know of many others who would say the same. One thing that I so appreciate about your videos is the time that you take to research the artist and provide insight beyond just your opinion or a hot take. Thank you for that. One element of NF that I believe is highly underrated is the fact that he actually has a solid singing voice. I would love to see your reaction to NF's Running. I'm always blown away by his ability to bring out emotion through how he delivers his vocals and that's very much the case in Running. At the end of the day his skill is in the rap/hip hop world, but Running features his voice. I'm curious what insights you have coming from a vocal coach background.
I've been a Nate fan since nearly the beginning. I was playing Madden online, and his song Intro came on the loading screen. To which I immediately quit the game, took the loss, and showed it to my roommate. Him and I listened to the album for about 3 hours and hung out admiring it.
Agree with the NF journey. BUT "Leave me Alone" is kind of the second half of this song and video. I would love for you to see it. I think it might be my favorite from NF.
the black balloons symbolize his 'burdens' he carries around. At 4:57 he says ''...leaving my burdens, well i brought a few with me i´m not perfect'' as he points to the ballons. i think in Lost ft. Hopsin he adresses them too
I totally agree about the therapeutic power of music. Writing lyrics is my form of journaling and I hope that my work can help others in the same way. Music has always been a big source of solace for me and I want to pay that forward as much as I can. Incidentally, I was today years old when I found out that slapping is a thing on string instruments other than bass and guitar.
Beth, I appreciate your deeper dive into the musicality of Nate’s track, a refreshing take on reactions. If you dive deeper into the “NF Journey” I’d be interested to join.
You need to react to his song Leave Me Alone. The video is a continuation of this one. The cart is a portable cage he can crawl into to feel safe. His song Outcast is where the concept starts. The black Ballons are his burdens he holds onto afraid to let them go. He talks about his fear of letting go of fear and his burdens, and being afraid things would be worse if he did. The people in the white represent his fans who also struggle with depression and fear. The ones in white clothes, like you mentioned, have chosen to try and let go to heal.
hey Beth, can you make a video about a brazilian singer called Ney Matrogosso? It's such a powerfull and unique voice. he's 83 by now and still sings his songs in the same key!
@BethRoars This is one of my favourite NF tracks for sure. Suggest Mansion next ! If you've discovered NF I'm surprised you haven't also discovered and reacted to Welsh boy Ren yet. Probably the most diversely talented artist of our generation. Lyme disease sufferer who spent 8 years misdiagnosed and untreated before crawling into treatment after a private diagnosis in Belgium. He performs almost every genre. Incredibly well. Surprising you musically at every turn. From busking on the streets of Brighton, his Hip Hop-heavy album Sick Boi entered the UK album charts at No. 1 in October 2023 knocking Rick Astley off the top spot. 100% independently with no tours or promotion other than through his fanbase - whilst he was in treatment in Canada. His 'best known' piece is Hi Ren. If you haven't watched this yet - do, whether you react to it or not. It's a single take.
Balloons are his burdens/doubts that he carries around- they show up in a lot of his videos around this album and time frame. You should do "leave me alone" next as it is the continuation of this video =)
Music is always such a powerful controller over emotions. Watch a movie segment with only the actors...then watch with the over-score. Think Chariots of Fire. This young man is really talented. Too bad his themes are based on the worst of society and the tragedies in his life. Iceland looks soo dark but it is a very happy, peaceful country...community matters. Thanks for this one, Beth..newbie for me. 😊
11:42 I really recommend you watch/listen to NF - Therapy Session. It's brutal and real and challenging and will need a topic disclaimer if you record a video on your reaction, but with what you said here, I think you would get a lot out of it. Your research and additional notes could help us get more out of it too.
You can tell he's been there, drops casually and in an off hand manner what makes other people go 'WTF' and scream 'too much information' because our social filters on what is OK to talk about are shot to buggery. They tell us to talk about it, then when we do, recoil in horror saying "not like that".
Me gustó el vídeo en lo general y más cuando explota lo lleva a otro nivel y no se diga su reacción señorita Beth se escuchó fantastica. bien 👏👏🍀🍀 👁️👁️ H.❤

NF helped me humanize my pain 3 years ago... It's complicated but, thank you Nate.
Since you're already appreciating his message and overall talent, I suggest you do follow the listening order so when you get to Hope, you'll appreciate it all even more than just doing that one early.
Over the years, he has built up many recurring themes, images and linguistic tools that he revisits in later work, especially Hope. Seeing and hearing these build adds depth to the more current songs.
Agreed. I suggested in my own comment she start her own NF journey properly.
Thank you for covering this. This is amazing. Hope is also a great song
Hey Beth long time sub of yours, cool to see you do something a little "out of the box"! I've listened to NF for years and I highly recommend to watch all of his material in order.

New sub! NF is GOATED❤ Appreciate you 🙏
NF has been able to put to word thoughts and feelings I've struggled with for years. Well worth exploring.
Excellent reaction! It makes sense that you heard NF in your exercise routine - many of his tracks are on my workout playlist. Incredible artist of remarkable depth / substance (not to mention SKILL)... and, as you noted, production value 🔥🖤🤍
More NF please
You hit the nail on the head with the shopping cart metaphor, he basically logs it around with the black balloons, which to him are his burdens, so he has to take them everywhere he goes! I think this was one of the best breakdown reactions I’ve seen. Great work! Look forward to seeing more from NF possibly!
Thanks so much!
Been anticipating this one for a minute!
Absolutely love your little info pop ups.. and your vocal and music metaphor breakdown is hands down awesome! NFREALMUSIC!
Thank you for being my introduction to NF. Your reaction was similar to mine! I will have to find out more about him and listen to more of his music.
Love that you’re checking out NF, I’m here for more. He’s also got a beautiful singing voice
I discovered NF in one of the hardest times in my life and his music and messages truly saved my life.💜
Black balloons represent his burdens. He used so much symbolism in his vids.
Loved ur reaction to NF
Would love to see u do album reviews.
I’m sure I’m not the only one who would listen to each song with u.
Albums

Theory session

"The balloons are holding him back." ...so true! his burdens are holding him back. I'd never been into rap before NF, and only NF. I love his singing voice too 😌 But even more so appreciate his ongoing search for hope in his life. Makes you self reflect a lot. I'm excited for you to experience his emotional journey...he's come a long way! 🥰
Enjoy your journey beth and love your channel 👍✨✨✨❣️
Love your reaction plus the info I’ve seen a lot of nf reactions I mean A LOT and I’ve never seen one like this!!
Welcome to the Outcasts! You dont find NF, NF finds you when you don't even realize you need it. Hoping to see you take the full NF journey, definitely earned a new sub for it.
P.S. if you see this, I'm curious as to what song it was you heard that made you cry? There's so many for me personally.
Yes yes yes more NF for some of the most raw and vulnerable lyrics you ever heard!
I've never been a big fan of rap, but NF really hits different. He's so raw with his self expression, and he raps about difficult subjects instead of meaningless hedonism. Remember This is my favorite of his songs (at least right now). So cool to see you cover him!
I would absolutely love to see your full NF journey starting with his very first video, it's all connected. There are visual references in this to other tracks.
I sincerely think he is the most creative artist out right now in any genre. His musical journey is worth you checking out more.
i really appreciated that blurb about Tommee Profitt.. i don't think he gets enough flowers for how much he's done for Nate. He has his own YT Channel and has often left comments on random reactions to Nate's music that he did the music for and leaves the kindest words. then his own behind-the-scenes short videos on how he does the music are so fun to watch also.. and always ending his cocktail of all the musical instruments with saying "then the last magic ingredient, Nate".. he's a wonderful man who, in many ways, i think had a major hand in who Nate is today, almost like a proud father/family member, who saw the potential in Nate and never left his side whenever needed.

You gotta take the NF "journey" now 😂🙌
Go back to the beginning and start with Mansion album
Please more NF
Enjoy your Journey ❤
I have listedned to hundreds of NF reactions but I truly applaud the extra effort you put into this one and hope you will do many more. Welcome to our world!
i could listen to your voice all day. Also, top 10 reaction to this song. thanks. god bless.
Absolutely Great reaction! Excellent and detailed commentary! Look forward to seeing Your next NF reaction. 🩸🗝😎
You have an ADORABLE accent! Irish people sound so cute! (Also I'm loving your analysis / breakdown, it's awesome!) Much love from Australia Beth ^w^
About music being therapeutic, he's got a whole album called Therapy Session, and yes it very much is his therapy. ❤️
She's started the journey and I'm here for it
I love how you so get his music and the fun facts you add are so nice!
NF is my favorite rapper for 3 reasons 1. He never curses and i can listen to him around my family. 2. He talks about real life and real problems instead of girls and cars and stuff. 3. His flow is kinda different and makes me feel this motivationish feeling

I’ve since dove in to his catalog and it’s all so impressive. Loved that he did his show with a live drummer. I will definitely see him many more times.
he talk about mentality, his doubts pains, he can sing, rap, being smooth
NF!!! Yesss!! The more you listen the more he explains things. His music is often referencing other songs. I’d say the balloons are talked about more in Leave Me Alone. I think Hope references all his albums and seasons and the video is pretty amazing. The more you listen, the more you appreciate the nuggets that he puts in his songs. Thanks for reacting. It’s always fun to watch and share the amazement at someone’s artistry.
You?
Guys , help me how thank you guys God bless 🙌 🙏
Subbed for more NF> What a treat to hear you analyze an NF song. This song is a masterpiece. Believe it or not the next one might be even better! This song and video story goes on in the next song, Leave Me Alone where we learn more about the people in white and the black balloons.
If you like this I think you’ll really like “Hi ren” by ren he’s got one of the deepest rabbit holes in music atm
Hey @BethRoars, I can't begin to say how excited I was to see you cover NF. I'm not a rap/hip hop fan but I've been fascinated with his work. I know of many others who would say the same.

I'm new to NF, but it seems he is the USA's Ren? Both storytelling slam poets. It's cool stuff.
He is pure fire, love his songs.
Thank you for reacting to this song. Loved it 😊😊
Sorry I was late to the party. Great artist, and reaction
Highly recommend the journey. Amazing to see growth and maturity through music.
NF saved my life in 2020 when everything from Covid to the riots was going on.
I've been a Nate fan since nearly the beginning.
I was playing Madden online, and his song Intro came on the loading screen. To which I immediately quit the game, took the loss, and showed it to my roommate.
Him and I listened to the album for about 3 hours and hung out admiring it.
Great analysis. Deeper than i ever went. The whole album is this awesome
That's why I did.I love the song
Agree with the NF journey. BUT "Leave me Alone" is kind of the second half of this song and video. I would love for you to see it. I think it might be my favorite from NF.
Nice to see you getting into some NF. One of few real artists in the genre.
Phenomenal reaction i love when reactors really dive deep into things like you did here.
Thank you Justin!
the black balloons symbolize his 'burdens' he carries around. At 4:57 he says ''...leaving my burdens, well i brought a few with me i´m not perfect'' as he points to the ballons. i think in Lost ft. Hopsin he adresses them too
I highly, highly, highly recommend the song Mansion by him. My absolute favorite all these years later and quite a powerful one.
I LOVE IT!!!AMEN
I totally agree about the therapeutic power of music. Writing lyrics is my form of journaling and I hope that my work can help others in the same way. Music has always been a big source of solace for me and I want to pay that forward as much as I can. Incidentally, I was today years old when I found out that slapping is a thing on string instruments other than bass and guitar.
the balloons are his burdens. he says it towards the beginning of the song, and even points at them when he says it, in the video
You need to listen to Liniker, she recently won a Latin Grammy. She sings with her whole body, it's beautiful to see how she interprets the songs.
RIGHT ON!!!!
Beth, I appreciate your deeper dive into the musicality of Nate’s track, a refreshing take on reactions. If you dive deeper into the “NF Journey” I’d be interested to join.
The balloons are his burdens in the shopping cart is the way he transports them around so it's like he's carrying his burdens with him everywhere
Subbed to hear more NF reactions…I’ve been a huge fan since the beginning and been to many concerts. Would to hear more from you!!!
You need to react to his song Leave Me Alone. The video is a continuation of this one.
The cart is a portable cage he can crawl into to feel safe. His song Outcast is where the concept starts. The black Ballons are his burdens he holds onto afraid to let them go. He talks about his fear of letting go of fear and his burdens, and being afraid things would be worse if he did.

hey Beth, can you make a video about a brazilian singer called Ney Matrogosso? It's such a powerfull and unique voice. he's 83 by now and still sings his songs in the same key!
You should also react to Lost by NF and Hopsin, its quite similiar, but so different at the same time
Fantastic Beth. Introduced me to NF
Wonderful insight and breakdown. Appreciate it! new sub :)
I cant wait to react the NF hope happy time and running
Nf is absolutely amazing raoper in this era laki dax, ren, and ,ez mil 🔥
Subbed for the journey. Great reaction
@BethRoars This is one of my favourite NF tracks for sure. Suggest Mansion next !
If you've discovered NF I'm surprised you haven't also discovered and reacted to Welsh boy Ren yet. Probably the most diversely talented artist of our generation.

Love your music Beth.💚
Really well rounded and informed reaction.
Wait till you hear him sing!! ❤
That's why I said he left all of his burdens behind but he had a few of them with him
Nf journey! Please! I in regards to the therapy through music, you will find his song "therapy session" right on your point!
Love your reactions ❤
I don't listen to rap, but I can respect conscious rap because it usually has good messages, and I can get behind this one
Balloons are his burdens/doubts that he carries around- they show up in a lot of his videos around this album and time frame. You should do "leave me alone" next as it is the continuation of this video =)
Time to go down the rabbit hole! 🎉🎉
all of nate's music is amazing you need to go on the journey
And yes, his music videos are metaphors for whats going on in his mind.
Music is always such a powerful controller over emotions. Watch a movie segment with only the actors...then watch with the over-score. Think Chariots of Fire. This young man is really talented. Too bad his themes are based on the worst of society and the tragedies in his life. Iceland looks soo dark but it is a very happy, peaceful country...community matters.

11:42 I really recommend you watch/listen to NF - Therapy Session. It's brutal and real and challenging and will need a topic disclaimer if you record a video on your reaction, but with what you said here, I think you would get a lot out of it. Your research and additional notes could help us get more out of it too.
If you like NF then you would definitely appreciate Ren. Id say start with Hi Ren.
She reacted to "Hi Ren" a year ago: ua-cam.com/video/nkC7HxAZs7c/v-deo.html
You can tell he's been there, drops casually and in an off hand manner what makes other people go 'WTF' and scream 'too much information' because our social filters on what is OK to talk about are shot to buggery. They tell us to talk about it, then when we do, recoil in horror saying "not like that".
You say therapeutic you need to watch therapy session where the fake smile starts! Great reaction 👍🏻
Where have you been Beth?? #NF4LIFE #REALMUSIC
Me gustó el vídeo en lo general y más cuando explota lo lleva a otro nivel y no se diga su reacción señorita Beth se escuchó fantastica. bien 👏👏🍀🍀 👁️👁️ H.❤
A bit of topic but I would really recommend Ado, her songs like aishite and crime and punishment are quite extreme and probably fun for you to analyze
PLEASE DO MORE NF!!!!!!!!
PLEASE DO THE NF JOURNEY STARTING WITH ALL I HAVE. IT WILL MAKE HIS MUSIC AND VIDEOS MAKE SO MUCH MORE SENSE
Leave Me Alone is a sequel to this song 😮🤯
NF ❤
NF it's creative!
Welcome to the NF family
