Bro... I agree with you that Chester’s vocals are next level, but don’t count Ronnie out my friend... Ronnie has some of the best vocals in the industry, period.
There is a trilogy by Falling in Revers, Losing My Mind, Losing My Life, and Drugs. In that order. There is also the 'Drug in Me is You' (a Emo/Punk song from 2011) and the Drug in Me is Reimagined (which was released earlier this year), which i would suggest reacting to back to back. Ronnie Radke, the lead singer of Falling in Reverse, has a rap mix tape that he released back in 2014 that features songs with Deuce, b.LaY, Danny Worsnop, and Andy Biersack.
@@TheThirdErnest if you do more after that the 3 songs before they released popular monster are basically a cinematic trilogy since i know you geek out about visual storytelling
@@TheThirdErnest all the 90's/00's era kids could relate..like sometimes that shit just pops up without our control and then we're like ...wait I didn't mean it. 😂
@@TheThirdErnest not wrong per se, Limp Bizkit were extremely influential to the nu metal sound, like a more commercial Korn. They really were a 15 minutes of fame kind of band tho
Just found you on recommended after tons of watched material from reaction of this band. You're my new favorite. I can hear that you know what you talking about, and you noticed stuff that no one else did. 5 STARS from Sweden. Keep it up man.
I just came across your channel and I was super impressed with your film critique of the video in addition to your breakdown of the music. I already loved the song, but the transitions, color palette, and camera movement throughout the video turned it transcendent in my mind. You've earned yourself a loyal subscriber.
I'm gonna be COMPLETELY HONEST, cause you did this reaction and the way you broke it down with camera angles, scene transitions, etc but mainly cause I FCKN LOVE THIS LOVE and Ronnie as an artist and person in general is why I subbed. I've been subbed to you for like a couple weeks or months but this video is why I subbed
Your reaction is so intelligent yet intuitive at the same time!! I had the exact same reaction after I first watched this. This is the best song I think I've ever heard!
Yess!! Finally falling in reverse!! I got on UA-cam for the night first thing that pops up on my feed n i clicked on it so fast lmao😂😂😂❤Im all in for it fam your reactions are priceless and authentic like always
Ok, so yes, it’s his daughter, Willow. Ronnie spent time in prison, I’ll let you look up why. There’s so much going on with all this. Gotta check out: Losing my Life Losing my mind Drugs In that order. Additionally check out “the drug in me is reimagined”
I think the little girl at the end of the video is his actual daughter. Dude's definitely got some talent. (Sadly, just read somewhere that one of these guitar players passed away like a week ago.) Great reaction...as always! 🤘💯
first , love the videos man . ive said this before but thank you for breaking down the lyrics from such a proffossional , interesting , deep point of view . bless
If you think he’s not on par with Chester, then you need to listen to “The Drug in Me is Reimagined”. It’s a beautiful song that really shows his range.
@ Ernest; Everyone knows this but you. Long story short.. Ronnie, singer, was front man for Escapethefate, who after a show was accused as an accomplice to murder. Lost his band and ended up in prison for a couple years. Reached out and formed Falling in Reverse while incarcerated. B4 going in he was a major drug addict who now has been sober for years. He then was in a real bad domestic relationship that put him back in court quite a few times. This song represents just that and he does have a therapist. The whole world loves him but at the same time hate him only because of his past mistakes. Its been like 10 years now people. Let it go and let him shine. My favorite triumph from him was when he's best friend and band mate of escape the fate, who was also involved in the murder, sold him out and walked away from it. The former front man of blessthefall then took his place after getting kicked out of his own band and even started dressing and acting like Ronnie. A lot of beef there, but then years later escapethefate and falling in reverse did a bury the hatchet tour where they publicly, on stage, forgave one another. Beautiful, cause I love all those bands
For a little bit on background, Ronnie Radke was originally the lead singer and co-founder of a band called Escape the Fate back in 2004. He was removed from the band in in 2007 when he served 2 1/2 years in prison for a parole violation. He was a very heavy drug user. He created Falling in Reverse while he was in prison. He is the last remaining founding member in the band, after the guitarist and co-founder, Derek Jones, died last week. For some context for future songs: His mother and father were drug addicts, and his mother abandoned them when Ronnie was 7, this led him to have little respect towards women, he does now. His older brother Anthony died 2013. He has 1 child, Willow, who featured in the video (and a couple of others). And she pretty much is the reason he is trying to be a better person (he fully admits he is an asshole). And during a concert in 2012, in the heat of the moment, he threw a mic stand into the crowd and it hit a 15 year old (he had done it several time before without incident), which he deeply regretted, and has never done again.
I enjoy the way you break down songs/videos. Hell, it seems I learn more about some songs than I thought I knew! Keep at it! By the way, Ronnie completely have you a shot out and enjoyed your reaction!! Not many people have artists that legitimately enjoy the way they reacted to their work!
Bro. Same reaction I had the first time I heard these guys, now I love them. Theres like 3 other songs you have to react to. I cant remember the names, but they fire too. Great reaction my man
Hey man, I never ever comment, ever, but I have to say I really appreciate how much love you give all types of music a chance. I am what you would call a "metal head" but have grown to really understand and now love rap/hip hop because of you. There are a good number of people out there that will be turned off immediately because of the screaming, but not you. You get hyped when you hear something sonically pleasing. Keep doing what you do man, your are 💯. Love it
I just started following you a couple days ago because I was watching your NF reactions and now you’re listening to my FAVORITE BAND 🤯 And seeing your reaction to them just made me night haha! His rapping voice is not usually as dark as it is in this song but he wanted to convey how dark he was feeling when he wrote this. You would probably love Alone and Drugs as well by them!!
TheThirdErnest yass do it 👏🏻 it’s losing my mind first, then losing my life then drugs! I love how you have insight into camera angles and such that is really interesting
Thanks for the reaction, it is his daughter. I am sure many others will ask for the Trilogy about his battles with himself but I might as well. The songs are "Losing my Mind", "Losing my Life" and "Drugs" in that order. Greetings from Iceland.
YEEEEEEEES! Falling in Reverse is one of my favorite bands so I just squealed so damn loud when I saw the title for the video. I’m glad you enjoyed it!!
Its really fun seeing people review ronnie as a rapper 😂. Love you though. Im really glad you like the song though i hope you do more ernest. Love the breakdowns
Can we talk about the perfectly timed body drop to the drums/music hitting the transition? As many reactions as I've seen of this video I don't believe anyone has commented on that. One of the cooler/subtle decisions on the part of the people producing the video. Great reaction and it would be awesome to see you react more to what Falling in Reverse has been up recently. Major props!
Love that you reacted to Popular Monster, this has been on repeat for me for a while. Would love for you to do the videos in order (add that to your tons of requests 😂)! This is just 🔥🔥
Glad you're reacting to these guys! Love their stuff! Edit: I just wanted to say how sad it is how happy I got for being first comment lmfao. Love your channel man!
Ernest, awesome reaction. Im mainly commenting for 2 reasons. Im a huge Falling in reverse fan, and i saw your picture of san antonio! Im in schertz, subbing, and will keep following you sir ! Rock on and i definitely recommend more Ronnie bro. Him and his band have a huge range of great songs.
Linkin park was literally my childhood band and I love Chester but, Ronnie’s vocal control and range is absolutely insane especially in “drug in me is you reimagined” and “I’m not a vampire revamped”.
Dude I got so excited seeing this video go up omg! I've been a fan of Ronnie for over a decade now and love his voice and his growth over the years. Go take a tumble down the rabbit hole of UA-cam and see the different sides of him and the music.
He's talking about what the fans did in his past, he's talking about the critic's they talked bad about him also in the chorus he's talking about all the stress he's been in, in the past, also I think he went to jail before I don't remember?
Kaman Tyler He was originally in the band Escape the Fate, and was arrested for drug possession and kicked out of the band. While he was imprisoned he wrote songs and formed this band once he was released.
@@dominicnunez4001 he wasn't arrested for drug possession he was arrested for breaking parole which he was on due to an altercation he was involved in with a group of guys where someone died. He didn't kill that person and it was ultimately ruled as self defense but he was still given parole for instigating the fight. After breaking parole and spending 2 and a half years in prison he decided to stay off drugs because they make you do stupid things. But drugs was not the cause of jail time directly.
Yay so glad you reacted. Almost my same reaction when I first listened to this song. Knew nothing about FIR. But man, so glad I went down that rabbit hole. That's his daughter Willow. Shes in a few of his videos. She keeps him grounded. Ronnie went to prison awhile back. He also reacts to reactors reacting to his videos. 😅
Awesome reaction bro! first time seeing your channel. I see a lot of comments below saying to react to "the drug in me is reimagined" but if you do you absolutely need to do a double reaction with "the drug in me is you" which is the original version of this song which was written by falling in reverse back in 2011. You'll see both how far this band has come and also the pure genius which is Ronnie Radke.
Just caught your channel since I'm not subscribed but you were reviewing Popular Monster. I love watching so many reactors, because Ronnie is an artist and people see and have unique takeaways and different ways they can relate to his song. As others have probably stated: yes a criminal background and yes he credits his daughter for saving him. She's in all the recent videos that I've seen of F.I.R. btw.. subscribed now. look forward to your other reactions. Now I have to go catch up on previous work you've done.
Welcome to F.I.R 👌 Haven't watched this reaction yet cause I'm driving 🙈 but I'll be sure to pull over soon and watch from start to end 👍 Yeah the Third Fam
11K views after a day! Geez 😳 Great reaction my dude!! 🤩 Love this song, band & Ronnie Radke! I’ve made so many of my “hip hop head” friends into metal/rock lovers thanks to this song 😂
Yas! Hit em with the different genre! I have been listening to Falling in Reverse for years bro. The lead singer Ronnie was first in a band called escape the fate. He has always had killer vocals in my opinion. To me this song just solidifies his ability to do all kiiiinds of vocals. Love your videos, and I'm so happy you did this.
My favorite thing about the music video is how in the break down the video goes in rhythm with the music. The gunfire and bodies hitting the floor perfectly match the music.
Words of the artist about the song: “Popular Monster” is the voice inside my head, hoping you will listen. It’s the story of a hero that’s been falsely accused and torn down by society. It shows what happens when you get pushed too far. You become exactly what they say you are, exactly what they want you to be-a monster.
Great reaction! I was waiting for you to do this song for a long time. Hope you start doing more of their songs. So here’s a little backstory of Ronnie (the front man) which I think helps bring perspective on his songs: Ronnie’s first band was Escape The Fate which was gaining popularity in the late 2000’s. Around 2006 he was involved in a fight (around 6-8 people) and one of the people that was with Ronnie shot and killled someone from the opposite squad. Ronnie was placed on probation for 5 years but was jailed for violating his probation and was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in jail. Escape The Fate fired him and when he got out he went on to create Falling In Reverse. His reputation processed him and was involved in a couple altercations in the early 2010’s. The little girl in the video is his actual daughter named willow. Which is in a lot of their videos and is one of the reasons he tired to better himself and leave the bad part of him behind. Hope this helps in understanding of who his is.
Been waiting for this one for awhile!! GREAT group! RIP Derek Jones 💜🔥✌🏼 Love your reaction, always great and cracks me up. Your breakdowns and what your eye picks up is...speechless! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🔥🔥🔥✌🏼 Love seeing you enjoy a song 😉
Mad respect. Real talk. I’ve watched just about every reaction to this song and I applaud you. 🤘🏻🤘🏻👊🏻 The fact that recognize the subtle intricacies of the song is noteworthy. The biggest lyric I feel most people miss is “I am terrified…. I fell asleep at the wheel again….. crashed my car just feel again……..” is highly missed and so powerful. So happy to see people “hear” music and not just listen to music. Props good sir.
OMFG FINALLLLY!! I've been waiting on Falling in Reverse from you! You will love them. please react to "losing my mind", "losing my life", "drugs" & 'the drug in me is Reimagined" 💯👏💕
My guy, this was the last band I expected you to check out, but Im so hyped you did. Ronnie is such a polarizing figure in the scene, but his singing and shouting is top tier. If you wanna hear the boy sing his soul out, check out The Drug In Me Is Reimagined, it's so good!
Now that you've entered, you need to jump into their trilogy. Losing My Mind, Losing My Life, and finally Drugs. You won't be sorry fam! Falling in Reverse is one of my favorite bands now and I was late to the party. And btw, that is the lead singer's (Ronnie) daughter (Willow)
Bro... I agree with you that Chester’s vocals are next level, but don’t count Ronnie out my friend... Ronnie has some of the best vocals in the industry, period.
Truth!
No lie
honestly! especially after hearing the drug in me is reimagined
Agree 100%!
They definitely did sound pretty pure
There is a trilogy by Falling in Revers, Losing My Mind, Losing My Life, and Drugs. In that order. There is also the 'Drug in Me is You' (a Emo/Punk song from 2011) and the Drug in Me is Reimagined (which was released earlier this year), which i would suggest reacting to back to back.

Very sad times indeed
Yes he and Ronnie started this band if I'm not mistaken...R.I.P. Derek I know the band is going through a rough time, Much LOVE to them 🖤❣
He wasn't lead, he was rhythm, but still, rip...
RIP
You need to react to “The Drug in me is You” by Falling in Reverse first, and then to “The Drug in me you Reimagained” It’s amazing.
Preach 👌
And definitely needs to be done in that order. Original then Reimagined
Everyone keeps saying that so I’m gonna have to!
You won’t be disappointed....I’m a huge Falling in Reverse fan. @RonnieRadke is an amazing singer!
Was gonna suggest this too
@@TheThirdErnest if you do more after that the 3 songs before they released popular monster are basically a cinematic trilogy since i know you geek out about visual storytelling
The little girl at the end is his real life daughter!
She always brings him back into reality. So sweet 😊
She looks older in Drugs so I thought it might be another girl. Nothing like someone special like your child to snap you out of shit.

Got one here!
Welcome to the genre known as Ronnie Radke!!
YES!!!
Yes🖤🖤🖤
hahahha yeah! Ronnie does so many styles he’s awesome
It's fucking Nu Metal
Man I love how you actually catch the details of the lyrics and even breakdown the video. Spot on
Ok, so yes, it’s his daughter, Willow. Ronnie spent time in prison, I’ll let you look up why. There’s so much going on with all this. Gotta check out:
Losing my Life
Losing my mind
Drugs
In that order. Additionally check out “the drug in me is reimagined”
BakerStreetShootout the order is Losing my Mind, then Losing my Life, and ends with Drugs.
Yes! Great trilogy of songs
He has to listen to drug in me is you first to see the difference.
“Losing my mind” is first then “losing my life” and then “drugs”
I was so hyped when i saw the title! Man, nice reaction video!
Just listeed to this song a few hours ago! So excited when I saw that you reacted!!!
I think the little girl at the end of the video is his actual daughter. Dude's definitely got some talent.
(Sadly, just read somewhere that one of these guitar players passed away like a week ago.)
Great reaction...as always! 🤘💯
Heard that too. Super sad
Yes, the litt girl is his actual daughter, her name is Willow.
Yeah Derek, the bassist died last week. He and Ronnie were the original members of FIR. Bad ass dude. RIP Derek.

Been waiting for this one for a while, hopefully you’re gunna try more heavy music!!
I reckon he'd like Scarlxrd
You are such an inspiration I’m gonna start my own UA-cam channel and reacting so thank you for inspiring me to do this
Do it!! Plenty of room for everyone! Just make sure they are quality so people keep coming back!
@Rini666 appreciate you doing the playlist I really do. But what's up with my Lupe Fiasco playlist? Why is he always getting overlooked though? Lol
Here ya go. I have playlists for Ernest for the discord. Lupe.... ua-cam.com/play/PL_syhcPcZz4mqcDXHtuIbYw9SVh9pR8Se.html
@@Kelly30stm thank you. Appreciate it. Every now and then I need me some Lupe.
@@cesarchatafucup2230 i agree!
Yas! Hit em with the different genre! I have been listening to Falling in Reverse for years bro. The lead singer Ronnie was first in a band called escape the fate. He has always had killer vocals in my opinion. To me this song just solidifies his ability to do all kiiiinds of vocals. Love your videos, and I'm so happy you did this.
you're so sweet! I'm giving Ernest a list! He's gotta do more!
@@Kelly30stm thank you so much! That's so cool.
Couldn't love the reaction more... Instant sub!
My favorite thing about the music video is how in the break down the video goes in rhythm with the music. The gunfire and bodies hitting the floor perfectly match the music.
Words of the artist about the song:
“Popular Monster” is the voice inside my head, hoping you will listen. It’s the story of a hero that’s been falsely accused and torn down by society. It shows what happens when you get pushed too far. You become exactly what they say you are, exactly what they want you to be-a monster.
The video ive been waiting on
me too!
Wait no longerrrrr
Ayyyye love this song. THANK you
Amazing track
Great reaction! I was waiting for you to do this song for a long time. Hope you start doing more of their songs.
So here’s a little backstory of Ronnie (the front man) which I think helps bring perspective on his songs:
Ronnie’s first band was Escape The Fate which was gaining popularity in the late 2000’s.
Around 2006 he was involved in a fight (around 6-8 people) and one of the people that was with Ronnie shot and killled someone from the opposite squad. Ronnie was placed on probation for 5 years but was jailed for violating his probation and was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in jail. Escape The Fate fired him and when he got out he went on to create Falling In Reverse. His reputation processed him and was involved in a couple altercations in the early 2010’s.
The little girl in the video is his actual daughter named willow. Which is in a lot of their videos and is one of the reasons he tired to better himself and leave the bad part of him behind.
Hope this helps in understanding of who his is.
I just saw Ronnie Reacts to this video and had to come and get you a view. Always love your reactions my guy.
Been waiting for this one for awhile!! GREAT group! RIP Derek Jones 💜🔥✌🏼 Love your reaction, always great and cracks me up. Your breakdowns and what your eye picks up is...speechless! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🔥🔥🔥✌🏼 Love seeing you enjoy a song 😉
Perfect!!!!!!! Thank God you starting to react to this band! Now... Keep going pleaseeee
Mad respect. Real talk. I’ve watched just about every reaction to this song and I applaud you. 🤘🏻🤘🏻👊🏻
The fact that recognize the subtle intricacies of the song is noteworthy. The biggest lyric I feel most people miss is “I am terrified…. I fell asleep at the wheel again….. crashed my car just feel again……..” is highly missed and so powerful. So happy to see people “hear” music and not just listen to music. Props good sir.
OMFG FINALLLLY!! I've been waiting on Falling in Reverse from you! You will love them. please react to "losing my mind", "losing my life", "drugs" & 'the drug in me is Reimagined" 💯👏💕
So glad you finally did these guys!! One of my all time faves
I can tell this is one of your favorite songs you've listened to for the first time based on your reaction. I love it🙌🏼
Glad you reacted to this. You should check out their other songs.
Your breakdowns are top-notch
I've never heard this, but damn! Straight fire! Great reaction!
check out more of falling in reverse, i think you'll love them!
Great analyse man ! Big up 🇫🇷😁
Clicked speedy quick. Epic reaction. Epic song!
Oh also the courtroom is a throwback to an old music video “The Drug In Me Is You” it’s the same courtroom it was shot in
Man I haven't got the chills from a song in a minute - got it like 4 times during this song. FIRE
I cant wait for you to hit 100K subs! :)
Let's get on that Falling In Reverse train, Ernest! It's totally worth it.
My guy, this was the last band I expected you to check out, but Im so hyped you did.
Ronnie is such a polarizing figure in the scene, but his singing and shouting is top tier. If you wanna hear the boy sing his soul out, check out The Drug In Me Is Reimagined, it's so good!
I was dearly waiting for this reaction.. dear god thank you
I see it finally happened Kelly, good pleading..
Thank you fave tech boi!
I can't believe you are reacting to this. Some pog moves being made here, yes sir!
Lmao "I'm getting Limp Bizkit... but that's kind of an insult so I take that one back"
Now that you've entered, you need to jump into their trilogy. Losing My Mind, Losing My Life, and finally Drugs. You won't be sorry fam!
Falling in Reverse is one of my favorite bands now and I was late to the party. And btw, that is the lead singer's (Ronnie) daughter (Willow)
