No drugs or alcohol. Trauma as a kid. No spoilers. Do the Journey. This song is the intro to his 4th album. New sub for NF.🖤🤍

Starting with NF on this song is like starting a book on the 17th chapter 😅 This is the title song from his fourth studio album. All of his albums tie together sequentially to tell his story. He uses tons of callbacks, references and symbolism. This was filmed in Iceland.

I'm also a huge Ren fan. I found NF in 2018 when i was at my darkest. His music literally saved my life. Please consider taking the NF Journey. It's a bumpy ride, but it's so worth it!

Ren has taken a lot of inspiration from NF

No Ren is like NF

Never touched drugs or alcohol. Lots of trauma as a kid including his mom overdosing and passing. Totally worth it to do the journey. He’s been around for many years. He takes long breaks regularly and doesn’t do interviews or social media hardly at all. Glad you found him.

The correct way to say it is that Ren is kinda like NF

The balloons are his burdens. He says it in the song. “Got a taste of the fame better pump my stomach throw it back up like I don’t want it. “he’s talking about not wanting to be famous. He doesn’t drink or do drugs good reaction!

Black Balloons = His Burdens.

Great reaction!!! Change, leave me alone and only Bangers!!!!

It wasn't drugs that he needed pumping his stomach it was Fame. This dude is a Christian he struggles from mental health, he doesn't curse. The balloons that he carries around or his burdens. And that's just a glimpse.

Ren is trying to walk the lane NF created

you found the GOAT. :) Do the NF journey so all of this stuff makes sense. It builds.

Mistake is my favorite NF track!

The balloons represent his burdens that he's forced to carry around with him because they live in his mind. They're black because those thoughts are very dark. Getting in the cart implies he is trapped in a cage regarding his mental health. For the answer to the woman on the bench, react to his video "How Could You Leave Us".

You Gotta check out More NF!! Start the NF Journey Start with Intro and then go from there.

NF is not like Ren. Ren is like NF. Ren listened to NF.

He told you that he brung some burdens with him and pointed to the balloons.

i think you need more of NF in your life

Please please please more NF!! 😍😍😍

Like and subscribe if you'd like to see more of me 😊❤

Welcome to the NF fam! As many people have already told you, you have to do the NF Journey! All of his music tells a story and all intertwine with each other! I’m sure someone will be able to give you the order to go in! Buckle up and get ready because it’s a wild ride lol

In fact, Ren looks like NF

This 'movie' represents Nates levels of deep dreams ( no colors) as the fade out in the end is like trying to WAKE UP yet he is still in his subconcious dream state wanting to search for answers to unlock the 'saferoom' cage he is afaid to leave... he has now left the cage of 'protection' you see in the background...to journey on towards that 'map to hope' using the cart as his 'mobile home' safespace that carries his burdens (balloons) and at the end NF climbs into iT... as a 'basket case' like a 'lost soul at a crossroad.'

Love NF, loved the reaction thank you 🔥

I wouldn't say NF is like Ren. I would say when Ren trees the favor NF. You have to realize NF has been around for a long time.

like so many others said, you are reading the second to last chapter of a book trying to guess what the book is about.

You gotta start from the beginning!! It's well worth it! He's fire!!

His music has personally helped me get through some tough times.

Nf has been doing this longer than Ren.

Great reaction. Us Outcast love to experience new reactors to NF. There are Easter eggs in his videos and lyrics. My suggestion is do Leave Me Alone because its directly connected to The Search. Then start from the beginning. Intro All I Have Mansion You will not regret the journey. Peace.

He says it at the beginning of the song the Balloons are his burdens

Remember girl, your late, Nate is so much better now.

You need to react to his video Hope. It’s a True MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd already caught some of your other reactions, but have subbed for NF! There are many lists for his journey - they are massive, don't feel pressure to do them. For next track, I would suggest When I Grow Up To be clear - you SHOULD do the journey - just don't feel the pressure to do all of it on your channel. (Just being honest, your channel will not grow that way.) There are, however, a handful of key tracks that are popular reactor selections and paint a pretty vivid picture of NF - what he's been through, how he got here, who he is, what he stands for, etc. Pretty much all of Mansion album, Intro II, Therapy Session, How Could you Leave Us, Oh Lord, Outro, Intro III, Let You Down, If You Want Love, Remember This, Why, The Search (✅), When I Grow Up, and then pretty much all of Clouds and Hope.

HOPE ❤ Next, please, or Hope album!❤

The balloons are his burdens he can’t get rid of

She isn't a random woman if you know the journey

Welcome to a new rabbit hole :) suggest you hit Mansion - a great into to NFs story and will set you up for the rest. For an amazing piece of Story Telling, different to Ren but no less impact full as Jenny and Screech, try "Story". New sub here in hope :)

It was filmed in Iceland

Wanna see you take the journey and watch them in order ...

Subbed for NF. You definitely need to do the journey from the beginning. All of his songs/videos tie together and you jumped right into the middle of it, so there is a lot of context you are missing. Pause just a little less and take a little more time to listen and I think that will help overall.

React to the world champion figure skater who did NF hope in a hoodie and jeans

here is a link to the NF journey playlist if will help you understand NF and his music more is an amazing listen kzfaq.info/sun/PLYoB7_wG5NZn40MmcwAc5niKQvLcCEy78&si=w3OMgMTj8DKG9FOv

0:12 Ha ha ha. REN is like NF. That's a joke.

Balloons=burdens

The black balloons represent his burdens in this woman on the bench represents his mother who died of a drug overdose

Sub for NF…….Hope

MORE NF!!!!!!! Take the “NF Jorney” as people call it!!!!!!! You thought Ren was good??? Haha, NF is 1,00,000 times better!!!!

Wow, you have seriously missed what the song is about. He doesn’t use drugs. Listen to the lyrics. Dang, you whiffed on a great song.

This reaction was a study in hastily drawn conclusions and assumptions. You are so off on most observations. You should probably start the NF journey from the beginning, and not wirh the 4th album. Otherwise it would be like pretending to diagnose Ren after only seeing a random track like "Seven Sins", and never having seen "Hi Ren" or "Chalk Outlines" first.

What's up with people talking bout NF sounding like Ren??? NF was out way B4 Ren, Ig If u ain't done the NF Journey, some won't get why that Ren comparison is irritating as hell.

I have your back homie... never mind you are looking bs.

With NF every album is a book and each song is a chapter. To understand NF's life, background and struggles you have to start at the beginning. Alot of his songs and and videos cross reference each other and link together. You could get lost and confused if you haven't went on the NF JOURNEY! BTW the balloons represent our burdens and the things from his past that NF can't let go of.

Welcome THEE, "NF Journey." If You so choose. It's not just any journey, but a journey that spans and interconnects several albums. Enjoy! 🩸🗝

This is the absolute worst n f reaction i've ever seen.
