Adam is from Chicago and was in prison. The black guys in the song are his friends/family. This song is truly about breaking the steriotypes but a lot of reactors only got to the word and shut down the message he was actually trying to get across. Adam and Tom truly loves everyone. They both lived in the streets and know how it is for all communities no matter what the color. #ACAL #HOG
As a white guy, no. I do not get offended at being called trash, a redneck, a hillbilly, a cracker, honky, none of it. My baby girl calls me daddy, and that’s the only name that matters to me.
Who else watches these just waiting for that one reaction face? I'm literally watching and waiting for that "wait......what?" It's a song I like that I can only sing along to when I am by myself.
At least you reacted to the "C" word. Most reactors don't react until the "N" word. Racism is "in" and "from" every race. Great reaction. Names never bothered me ...actions do. #HangOverGang
C word, N word.? Hey, if you can't type the full word then obviously there's something wrong with YT & the 1st amendment. YT is an American company not obeying constitutional law, ohh wow Liberals are celebrating. Get pregnant & want an abortion even if it's from rape, ohh sooo sorry. Shouldn't have been in that position.

all good until u invent drama over a word a W person didnt even invent ....while using the same word over again that should actually be offensive. Imagine using a word so badly by ppl so "oppressed" while knowing its oppressive its same as me asking a pedo to babysit my kids all over again but being offended by them being P while i know it loll
Adam did an interview with Stevie Knight where they talked about this song, after this song Adam was banned from doing and of his shows scheduled in California. I’m not a super sensitive guy so depending on the intention behind someone calling me a cracker I would not have a problem with it.
@Paul Schmidt - yeah I recall that interview Adam had w Stevie Knight after this song came out. Really, it was an honest conversation more than an interview. It’s been awhile, so correct me if I’m wrong, but here’s a quick summary in case anyone is interested…. So, Stevie got the point Adam was making in this song, but he wasn’t ok with Adam’s use of the n-word. They discussed it & it was pretty interesting - they heard each other out. I think Adam grew up hanging out with all sorts of people, black & white, & and when he started rapping locally he hung out with mostly black people & had a lot of close black friends. I don’t know if he started rapping before prison or after, but I remember Adam saying that he was deep in the urban culture, used to go to rap battles & was part of the underground rap scene & became part of it. He said his black friends called each other the n-word (meaning, homie) & they didn’t treat Adam any different, so they called him the n-word too. With this song, Adam said he wasn’t trying to shock people & he was surprised how many people got tripped up by that 1 word & let the deeper message pass over their heads. By the end of their talk, I felt like Stevie understood where Adam was coming from, and vice versa. To me what’s really interesting is how Stevie’s feelings about the n-word have changed in recent years. He used the word all the time, out of habit, but he no longer uses it & doesn’t like his friends calling him that word either. He also doesn’t like white people using it. Much respect to Stevie for being consistent.
I went to an Adam Calhoun concert on July the fourth and he mentioned how people were telling him he shouldn't be singing this song. He said "I told them to suck my d**k". He proceeded to sing it!
@@saraohara2504 what really bothered my about Knight’s initial reaction is that “cracker”, “redneck”, and “white trash” went by without reaction, but he heard the word “nigger” and could not get over it.
To answer your question about being offended by the word cracker, not even a little. It’s just a word. Just like the “N” word. People who get offended over words are just weak minded. IMO
The part when Adam says, "All you do is smoke weed, run around with other b*tches" the man you paused it on rolling the blunt, his name was William Pickering, a Chicago rapper also known as EBE Bandz and Billy Da Kid. He was kidnapped, beaten with a baseball bat and set on fire. His body was found 3 weeks after his disappearance. It was a drug deal gone bad. All of the suspects were found guilty and are in prison except for the ringleader, William Arzate. He disappeared before the trial started but was found guilty of first-degree murder and concealing a homicidal death absentia. This was in 2021 and they still haven't caught the dude.
Oh the second half of Adams verse & your reaction was priceless cus you couldn’t see where he was going with it until he got to the difference was great, Adam is a real one though he grew up battling in Chicago streets
He's just real saying what most can't. We should love each other no matter what and stop letting people divide us. United we stand divided we fall! They created these names to categorize us.
I’m white male 44 years old and I don’t care what anyone calls me or thinks of me, never did. This song is just exposing all the stereotypes, it’s not from his point of view but from the point of racists on all sides.
Hi from Indiana..... I am a 44 year old white woman who grew up in the country and not a single thing in A Cal's song offended me..... I wanna add that a deer ran out in front of my car on my way home from work tonight, that's how out in the country I live lol. A whole family of deer were looking for food in a field and one decided to hop out and stare at my car hahha.
Oh heck you went straight in on AcALs hard & controversial one. It's good but he's got alot of hard hitters I can't wait to see you react to. Rap shxt, cannon, bodies hit floor
We all end up with a label. When I lived in the Midwest, they called me a cracker. If my southern drawl ever came out, I was a red neck or white trash. So, you just embrace it. Ignorance has no color bound. I would NEVER say that N word, I feel like Adam used it for shock value and also to compare that most people don’t really bat an eye at white stereotypes and nicknames. I was actually laughing at the ones about white people because they all come from someplace. Not all white people fit that though. Lol
The word cracker never bothered me at all, haha Hell, it makes me smile actually, but my mind never equated it to a whip or anything negative like...I always envisioned shit like really white ass wonder bread or some shit, as I'm ligit glow in the dark ass white! Haha Hell, I damn near view it as a term of endearment. Nope, I never took it personally at all. Just an fyi from a middle aged white girl who sees the beauty in us all ( in terms of race.) Hell, there are racist assholes in every & all races..but, there are also a helluva alot more decent & wonderful folks in all those mix of races too! Love & respect from Oregon Hang Over Gang 4life!
I respect the fact that you called Cracker the C word because it does go both ways. It does offend us, but I got my boys where I got my black card and they got their white card. You might be surprised to learn that there is less racism in the country than cities. They just paint us the wrong way
When I was a little kid in the mid 80s for a time we were in Tampa, Florida, and I was the only white kid in the neighborhood. I was called everything but never cared because they were just words became friends with most of the people that hated me at first.
Nah man being called white trash and cracker doesn’t bother me at all. Adam grew up in Chicago they are his brothers. They were cool with it because he was going at racism not being racist this is one of my favorite songs
I started taking a drink of my Monster drink when he started singing about the black people side and about choked on your reaction!!!! There isn't any "white people" slur that offends me. I understand why someone says when they do but it doesn't phase me. And I can't even say the N word when I am by myself when no one is listening.
After he said the N word you really needed to get past that to the context in which he was using it, cause I can't imagine any intelligent person having a problem with the message he was put out
The word cracker or white trash doesn't bother us it's the fact we know it's typically said with a hatred behind it. Same as the n word. Guys can say it and nobody question it but it's the intent behind the words
I can't lie as someone who is as white as they come that word regardless had to much power for far to long and made me cringe a bit on the inside when I found Adams music but knowing that's the neighborhood he lived in, those are people he knows, that he friends with, that car they riding on is his with them 24's, he been in an out of prison and turned his life around plus his underground battle rapping stuff. I am not saying I see a need for that word but if anyone gets the hey if you gonna use it do it with confidence it's him.Solid reaction as always fam.Keep grinding you gonna succeed.
Now that I watched your reaction gotta say expected this response. And I agree with what you said about white guy using that term. It's HOW the word is used not the word iteslf. Truth be said, there isn't a damn word in existence that was cause anyone physical harm. At times we allow words to hurt us...
So many reactors react before knowing like when he's sitting on the Caddy as he says "selling Crack just so you can put 24s on your Cadillac.." That's shrieking hours Cadillac.. If I remember correctly..
call me cracker all day long bc only God defines me...and I am from rural, trailer park heavy area, where I always knew what a wife beater was lol. great reaction.
Saying "C word", the baby talk we're all supposed to use, is way more offensive than just speaking plain. IMO. It assumes people are too stupid to understand things like context and intent. You know they're not cool with him speaking? Those are his people from his community. He grew up in that South side Chicago warzone. They probably wouldn't appreciate you speaking for them.
Hillbilly sees people not color....Calhoun is a great man. A hillbilly is that guy helping you with tire change.....BBQ hell yeah we can be in the hood and eat the pickle juice and we don't even get the jaw clinch lmao
im not phased by the insults really. but i did grow up in a trailor park so it probably hits harder for me than alot of people. either way other people dont decide what i am.
I grew up in projects in 80s only my brother and I were white took about 6 months. To earn respect squashed the race issue an being called yhat was thought of as an honor an none my boys had an issue wit it I'm 52 now an still don't care if someone is offended an have no probs I live in the Bugh go Steelers
I can tell you really take offense to that word. Do you hate that word or do you just hate that word when a white person says it? If it's the word overall your being kind of a snowflake. It's just a word. If it's because of the color of skin of the person who says it that's being hypocritical and racist. Anyways what makes you think only a black person would be considered a N. There's good and bad people of every skin pigment. And why do people think it's ok to lay claim to certain things just for their skin color. That's stupid and usually unfounded. Like guy with braids like Tom. How is that cultural appropriation. The Vikings braided their hair and I'm sure many before them. Its a good way to keep your hair out of your face in battle. The whole race thing is messed up. The only race in the terms of people that I care about is the human race. Skin color never should have been brought into it. Who cares how much melanin you have in your skin. It's just like the political parties. Just another way to divide us so they can easier control us.

C word, N word.? Hey, if you can't type the full word then obviously there's something wrong with YT & the 1st amendment. YT is an American company not obeying constitutional law, ohh wow Liberals are celebrating. Get pregnant & want an abortion even if it's from rape, ohh sooo sorry.

I think he is trying to say we are more alike than most think. ♥
It's in the name of the song....Racism. FYI those are all his crew in the projects in Chicago where he grew up.

Enjoy your journey with Adam, it's 100% fire 🔥
If I'm not mistaken the short white guy with the beard rolling a blunt was one of Adam's music prodigies, but he died before he got out there!
He's just real saying what most can't. We should love each other no matter what and stop letting people divide us. United we stand divided we fall! They created these names to categorize us.

He has been given an N-word pass by a ridiculous amount of people 🤷🏻♀️

Adam grew up in south Chicago, as the only white boy in the hood

"c-word" lol 😂😂
Cutting the cheese HAHAHA I love it
Good Reaction man
They wouldnt even think about hitting him. He is from there.

These are all folks from Adam’s neighborhood -literally the hood! Listen first!
✨🔥✨🔥✨🔥✨
gotta open your mind bro. this whole song is built on stereotypes from black and white perspectives.
No color on wife beating.
That's Chicago. That's where he is from
Damn Bro don't light a match!😆

You should check out his song “pressure” next.
call me cracker all day long bc only God defines me...and I am from rural, trailer park heavy area, where I always knew what a wife beater was lol. great reaction.
I feel like you didn't get the entire point of this song , maybe listen a few more times, it's deeper than what u caught

Upcruch "blue Jean face"
He hit on stereotypes
Wife beater goes back prob 50 years in the Italian/Irish working class community in the states in the Northeast US
No m! none of the white slang words bother Most white folk. It’s funny to us.
Adam a beast
Hillbilly sees people not color....Calhoun is a great man. A hillbilly is that guy helping you with tire change.....BBQ hell yeah we can be in the hood and eat the pickle juice and we don't even get the jaw clinch lmao
Gonna say as the intro starts this is gonna heat you up at first. Looking forward to watching...
im not phased by the insults really. but i did grow up in a trailor park so it probably hits harder for me than alot of people. either way other people dont decide what i am.
Racial words don’t bother me. Like I’ve said many times racism is a form of ignorance.
Dope reaction bro but you wrong for busting ass on camera 🤣🤣🤣
No, call me a cracker all day long and I’ll laugh with you!!
Try listening to the message
Cracker refers to whips and the cracking noise it made.
This is a myth, some of the earliest references are from the 1600's and was a term for loud and gregarious people of any color.
It doesn’t bother me….I get called worse. Pretty regularly, actually 🤷🏻♀️
I grew up in projects in 80s only my brother and I were white took about 6 months. To earn respect squashed the race issue an being called yhat was thought of as an honor an none my boys had an issue wit it I'm 52 now an still don't care if someone is offended an have no probs I live in the Bugh go Steelers
Nah they deff cool wid it cuz he did time with them
you gotta check out Rap Shxt man, all gas no breaks
I can tell you really take offense to that word. Do you hate that word or do you just hate that word when a white person says it? If it's the word overall your being kind of a snowflake. It's just a word. If it's because of the color of skin of the person who says it that's being hypocritical and racist. Anyways what makes you think only a black person would be considered a N. There's good and bad people of every skin pigment. And why do people think it's ok to lay claim to certain things just for their skin color. That's stupid and usually unfounded.

The "c" word
You mean Kracker?
It's ok to say
😁😉🙋
It's just "Names"
Yea you being goofy and missed the whole point smh. If u can’t see it both ways that’s low key racist. Listen up the lyrics are simple
