      I am very selective with rap whereby it takes talent, originality, and going against the grain to spark my interest. As a result, I always dug Beastie Boys, 2 Live Crew, Ice T, NWA, Public Enemy, RUN DMC. However, metal and punk was always my favorite and still is. Tom is punk rock. His DIY approach and going against the grain resulted in my interest in his music. Never in my younger years would I have ever thought I would pay any mind to academia, politics, social issues. Growing up as a teen and becoming an adult in the 90s I thought we had all this stuff figured out. There was no judgement based upon gender, orientation, pigmentation, etc. Live and let live. I didn't have to like or agree with another human's choices or actions and they could reciprocate. We just got along because we didn't force each others views upon one another. We listened, learned, and grew becoming better human beings. The only identifying factor that is not a protected class is political ideology. Therefore, Americans (born here or legally immigrated) should just ditch this red blue conflict and come together regardless of pigmentation, religion, gender, orientation. Once we all put those trivial things behind us we can come together to address the real issues to bring each other up. The media and politicians are the problem. Not Americans. We all have more in common than what is propagated in the media, big tech, and the government. We all want the same thing. To pursue happiness. Sometimes we need each other to obtain that goal. Therefore, don't fall for the division propaganda. Think for yourself and find like minded individuals. Act locally, get involved with school boards, local elections especially the DA. We have more power than you think. Our founders were not idiots. We have a system in place that got corrupted. It is up to us to eliminate that corruption. See something, say something, if no one else does something, it is now your responsibility to do something.

    I know Tom from back in the day and we used to hang out at school and a bit after when he started out in music. Let me promise you one thing here….
    Tom is the only person I’ve ever known in my life who genuinely does what he wants and genuinely says what he thinks AND he has literally been that person from the moment I met him in high school. Let me assure you, he never has and never will care what ANYBODY on this planet thinks of him. Whatever inevitable imperfections he can ever have as a human being, inauthenticity never was and never will be one of them. Crazy how life comes full circle to me watching him get interviewed on a conservative commentary network 😂
    Glad to see him doing well because I can assure you he wanted it and worked for it. I saw it with my own eyes.

Artists like Tom are not going to sign with anyone, and that gives them the freedom and power to become great at what they do...much like Comedian's or Journalist's once you sign a contract they own you...but a Best Seller's List for books, music, movies, and other means of cultural expression...that shows the truth independent of anyone's feelings or opinions would not only be a breath of fresh air but also would go along with one of Dailywire's core tenants. @Dailywire

    As a man approaching my 60s I was fortunate to listen to one of Tom's songs purely by accident... I don't care for Rap music but so many of the lyrics in his songs are amazingly on point for what is going on in this country right now... Tom is wise beyond his age... Given my age, I don't think I could attend a concert and I hold no real expectations that I would be fortunate enough to meet this young man... However, if I could meet him I'd like to buy him lunch or coffee just to thank him for so harmoniously putting into song the truth about what is taking place in this country right now... What many are thinking but are afraid or unable to say outside of family or close friends... I also now listen to Adam Calhoun, Nu Breed & Jesse Howard, Savannah Dexter, Upchurch, and a couple others...

Do I think having face tattoos are cool? No not really. I personally think it’s dumb. However it’s not my life to care or judge someone based off their tattoos. You have every moral right and ability to disagree and not give him a chance based on how he looks, but that seems prejudice when said out loud like that. Obviously I’m not saying you’re a racist or anything, but that thought process definitely does promote some bigotry. Again, I’m not saying I’m a fan of full body/face tattoos, but if that’s the reason you refuse to listen to someone’s thoughts, then that’s a problem.

    I'm 55, and my wife oddly turned me on to Tom's music by playing his music videos in the background on TV while cleaning house. Now all my kids listen to him too. I think the main reason it appeals to me, personally, is because his lyrics say what I feel, unlike most other modern music, plus the music is just fantastic!

    I am a Christian and there's just something that resonates with me in all of Tom's songs and Nova's videos that puts a vision to his lyrics.

    I love these review episodes! Tom is amazing... been watching since his slaughter of Mac Lethal and his music somehow continues to get better with each release. Keep giving the name callers fuel, Tom! All that hot air is just making you ascend faster into the clouds😊

    Thank you for doing this interview with Tom. His music will live long after he’s gone. Tom is massively “underrated”.

    If I had money I would take Mr Macdonald to every school, university, meeting, convention, church, rally, etc my pockets would allow. I thank God for his music, message and mentality. He needs to open up for Dr Sowell and his message needs to be world wide. Thank you Mr Macdonald. May God bless you and your journey.

    I love that Tom gets to admire his work and explain some of his lyrics.
    He’s one of few that are strong enough to stand up against the mob with a message that travels far and wide. He’s a lyrical genius that destroys their ideology with his talent, so it penetrates just a little bit different.

    When Michael said "Speechless", the first thing that popped in my head was "controlling words, controlling minds"
