Tom gets a lot of hate, which makes no sense. He tells the truth and spits the facts. Glad you guys reacted to this. ❤️
I'm sure many people are very jealous of Tom so they resort to sending hate his way. Thank you for watching and being part of the family!
@@Spiritsmusicwa yeah and i refuse to be polite when i tell them how stupid they are being for acting like 10 year olds.
While she sleeps is a perfect example of a band who said fuck it to record labels, after getting screwed over. Great reaction guys, loved it 🤘👌 Spirit Fam and HOG foreverrrr
Thanks so much fam! We really appreciate you!
Subbing up for more Tom reactions. ✌🏽
#hangovergang forever
🤘🏼🤘🏿🤘🏽🤘🏻
Loved the reaction guys! HOG Fam representing!
Great reaction and great information and honest...subscribed...can’t wait to check out your music. Rock has and will always be my first love.
Props for having a support group for fans and friends alike during these trying times in the simulation
Thanks so much fam! We really appreciate that a lot!
You guys always tell it like it is and that's why I would enjoy you guys reacting to your own music.
Thank you so much fam! We really appreciate that a lot! Maybe we will to a new song.
#HOG Tom's a FUCKING genius. When people from all walks of life and ages can dig his stuff
I love Tom & I'm so glad you guys enjoy him!! please do more reactions to him!! much love ❤️
We are super huge fans of his! Much love back fam!
Hanging on by him is dope. And his 2nd mac lethal diss is fire.
I hear you with the signed musicians thing. My buddies band was on Nitro touring the world in the early 2000s and was stealing for food
It's sad bands have to go through this!
@@Spiritsmusicwa the family is key a huge band now that a lot of people would crap on for selling out way back then paid to fix the tour van when it broke down not the label as they were on different labels but from the same city
Please react to a band from Japan *BAND-MAID / Dice* 🎲 _winner winner chicken dinner!!!_
Thoughts on Epitaph? Some of my favorite bands are on that label. Widely known for bringing great artists. I’m not sure how they are with whom they sign but I’ve never really heard anything bad from them?
My personal feeling is, things are a lot different now than they were back when a lot of those bands were pioneering the way. That's not to say that labels didn't write Shady deals back then as well, but I am sure that that has escalated due to technology and simply the fact that so many people can do it all on their own. Labels used to control the music industry, but those days are quickly fading, so they resort to some pretty nasty tactics. Not sure if that answered your question.
-Sean
I would personally consider Epitaph to be a good label and one that I personally would be very happy to work with. When The Ghost Inside had their bus accident Epitaph decided to give them 100% of the profits from their albums which is MASSIVE. They showed beyond doubt that they respect and care for their artists and to me that shows me a lot when they put their artists security above their own financial gains. Much respect to Epitaph.
-Riley
Spirits completely answered my question. I can’t believe you responded! I believe things are changing and artists are realizing that the labels need them more than the artist needing the label. With so many platforms to present music on gone are the days of local radio stations playing what they deem “radio worthy”.
Spirits Riley, I did not know that about Epitaph. That is amazing!! I believe that mindset follows what you and your band follow as well. To help and support. Not tear down and make a profit.
Of course we responded man! We appreciate you taking the time to write out that initial comment! And i 100% agree, artists have more power now than ever through the internet and you CAN make it without a label today.
This is nothing in comparison to the music yall usually react to I don't think, but I'm curious about what y'all think/have to say about Jaden Hossler!
We'll check it out for sure
I've watched this reaction so many times. Not enough people reacted to this song. Everything he says is horribly true...it's fucked up
Hey guys i make emorap/ pop punk type music. I have a few music videos on my channel if you’d like to make a reaction video if you need videos feel free! I’d love to see your reactions
Review Polyphia - GOAT
Banger!!
React to nightmare by Halsey
Already up on the channel. :)
Truthfully Tom was the only reason I even started even watching independent musicians, I’ve been HOG family for a while now. I re-found my love of music because of him and that led me to Ronnie and this amazing Spirits Family. I love you guy’s keep kickin a**.....Spirit fam for life.
Tonya, we love you a lot fam. Thanks for being part of it all!
Tom MacDonald /Merkules/Upchurch/Adam Calhoun/struggle Jennings/jellyroll/hopsin/Bezz believe /all independent artists.. Who happened to all know each other. You know it’s funny I was watching some of Ronnie Radke reacting to people reacting to his videos. Someone actually said Ronnie Radke should make a video with Tom MacDonald. Ronnie Radke’s response was “maybe I’ll do that”
Head's up, Tom plans on p&ssing off the world this Friday with a post album release of a video.
He said it's going to break the internet! Can't wait!
His girlfriend did sign, but after she made sure she got fired from the label. She has a sayonora track called "Wishing Well"
Loove me some Tom McDonald!! Actually hadn't heard his shit until recently when I watched one of ur reacts🤘🖤
Dude is so damn talented and his girl Nova!
" I'm independent till I'm dead". Like his anti establishment drive. Keeping it real
So great to see other metal heads getting into Tom. Got a new sub here. Keep killing it.
Thank you so much Chris! We love TM!
You guys have to react to “Ashes” 🔥🔥🔥 Tom loves rock and this song is a fire combination of rock and rap. You guys will love it!! I’ll subscribe so I can watch for it! And definitely “People So Stupid” it took him to #1 on iTunes and is now on billboard’s rap hip hop chart! GO TOM!!!
HOG4EVER 🤘🤘
DO POLITICALLY INCORRECT BY HIM!!!! :D
We definitely have that one on our list.
I love Tom Macdonald and y’all but I got bigger news... if you are fans of finch, I am featured in their Instagram story tonight. That is all, just happy about it!
Dude that is AMAZING!!! Finch is rad.
Spirits btw, I now have emery, Juliana theory and finch showing me off, next time there is a spirits show in Florida, and we get to hang out hopefully, I expect an insta or Facebook shout out. I used to be a cool musician, gotta keep up the image!
Another awesome vid from u guys i always wnjoy hearing your perspectives on the music and music videos
Myke, we appreciate you being part of it all!
Hii, y’all should react to Jaden hossler. He’s 19 y/o and he just started with music he has 3 songs and just released one today. He’s one of the young guys bringing back pop rock music/2000s music
Yessss. I feel like Jaden, Travis barker, mgk, and yungblud to name a few are lowkey bring pop-punk back to mainstream music 🎶
We'll check it out for sure
Tom and Nova are Amazing!!! Do more!!!
Never heard of Tom before you did the videos on him super pumped you did
Heck ya fam! Glad to share some dank tunes with you!
Deftones-simple man.
Black lungs-hold fast
Thrice-dust of nations/ or anything by thrice. I could do this all day fellas. Music is what has kept me alive for 25 years. Three cheers for music.
Cheers fam!
You guys should check out Ryan Upchurch if you haven't heard of him. Can I get an outlaw, hillbilly, rollen stoned, bloodshed, I said fuck it, to name a few.
I started writing a sci-fi series of books. When I got into the third book I dug around until I found an editor to look at my work. He was super exclusive and every artist that he worked with made it to the NYT bestseller list. He had industry connections. To get his attention was a big deal. He took me on.
As we were getting toward the end of cleaning up the final draft he approached the topic of getting the book out. He started to dive into how to approach the industry and how to guard myself. He told me that he would bring the book to a few publishing houses that would give it an honest chance.
I told him to hold up. My husband and I were starting our own publishing house and putting out the book independently. I firmly told him that NOBODY was going to control my work but ME. There was NO way that MY work was going under another person's control. Ever.
There was a pregnant silence after I made that announcement. I felt like he was holding his breath. Then he burst out how happy he was to hear that. He told me that, as an independent I could sell a fraction of the books I could sell through the publisher and make more money. He talked about how they control everything after that contract is signed. How the artist gets screwed. How the work moves from a message to a commodity. I had his wholehearted support.
These industries are ultra profitable for a reason. They keep the profit for themselves. Artists are getting smarter and, thanks to the internet, taking control of their own marketing and distributing.
We don't need them.
And that fact is scaring the crap out of them. The writing is on the wall. EVERYTHING is about to turn the corner and we're about to get some fresh, great art. Books, music, paintings, movies... Because the independent doesn't have to play it safe. We don't have a formula. Things have become so formulaic that art is now predictable and boring, but we're about to bust out of that box.
Another great reaction video guys! Love it! Go check out call me karizma! He’s got some interesting lyrics, just all around good music with a message! 💕
Thankfully it's not required now like it used to be. You can use free sources like youtube to get massive followings and go from there. Modern technology broke the chains of artists and we all have benefited greatly the the last decade because of it.
100% could not agree more with this comment! It is a completely different day and age for the music industry!
Tom just dropped People So Stupid... it’s gonna trigger the world.. he don’t give a stink
i absolutely love tom and his message. im so proud and lucky to be able to experience his journey with him in music. im so glad you guys react to his music. i have way more respect for musicians who respect and love other musicians. your music is beautiful my dirty lil secret preferred generas. keep up the amazing work. im proud of how great you guys are and how real and humble you are. much love!!!!

Question.Rappers who get signed versus rock and metal is it all the same or are there differences just curious. I do know they all don't make any money its the label company who gets most of the money but still curious if it differs between the two genres of music.
I haven't had much personal experience talking with rappers who get signed so I cant say for sure, but my guess is that its pretty much the same.
@@Spiritsmusicwa ahh thanks was just curious. I do know publishers take most of the money regardless thnx for the reply though may end up looking different things up now curious
Whats up guys. Love getting home from work and watching the videos. If you get a chance react to The Kid Laroi- tell me why
