Producer: so do you want a sport car in the video? NF: nah i got this sick shopping cart

Producer: we have a $1,000,000 budget, what would you like? NF: 🛒🎈

For those that dont know. The shopping cart represents his mind and each balloon represent his mental struggles and mental health. His carrying it along with him, dragging it everywhere. Its symbolic One of the reason i love his music so much is because he is open about his mental health, he raps and talks about it. Something that as a society we see as taboo and refuse to acknowledge

In 1:39 he says his looking for the map to hope and 3 years later he released a song named hope where the mv starts in a boat, bro finally found it after 3 years

Director: Girls in bikinis? NF: Nah, Shopping Cart.

Director :chicks? NF:nope Director: expensive cars? NF: no Director: lots of money and flexing? NF: noooo Director: then what? NF: a shopping cart Director: *with confusion he says* "with groceries?" NF: nah with balloons

'Hey, Nate, how's life?' I don't know, it's alright I've been dealin' with some things like every human being And really didn't sleep much last night 'I'm sorry,' that's fine I just think I need a little me time I just think I need a little free time Little break from the shows and the bus rides, yeah Last year I had a breakdown Thoughts tellin' me I'm lost gettin' too loud Had to see a therapist, then I found out Somethin' funny's goin' on up in my house Yeah, I started thinkin' maybe I should move out You know, pack my cart, take a new route Clean up my yard, get the noose out Hang up my heart, let it air out I've been searchin' 'What does that mean, Nate?' I've been learning Grabbin' my keepsakes, leavin' my burdens Well, I brought a few with me, I'm not perfect Lookin' at the view, like this concerns me Pickin' up the cues, right? I'm quite nervous Hate it when I lose sight, life gets blurry And things might hurt me It's prolly gonna be a long journey, but hey It's worth it, though Cold world out there, kids, grab your coats It's been a minute, I know, now I'm back to roam Lookin' for the antidote to crack the code Pretty vivid; I admit it, I'm in classic mode Don't need pity given to me, but I can't condone Talkin' down to me, I'ma have to crack your nose for crackin' jokes I'm lookin' for the map to hope, you seen it? Been makin' a whole lot of changes Wrote a song about that, you should play it I get scared when I walk on these stages I look at the crowd and see so many faces, yeah That's when I start to get anxious That's when my thoughts can be dangerous That's when I put on my makeup and drown in self-hatred Forget what I'm saying, and- Where'd the beat go? Oh, ain't that somethin'? Drums came in, you ain't see that comin' Hands on my head, can't tell me nothin' Got a taste of the fame, had to pump my stomach Throw it back up like I don't want it Wipe my face, clean off my vomit OCD, tryna push my buttons I said don't touch it, now y'all done it I can be critical, never typical Intricate with every syllable, I'm a criminal Intimate, but never political, pretty visual Even if you hate it, I'll make it feel like you're in it, though You call me what you wanna, but never call me forgettable Leave you deep in thought, I could never swim in the kiddie pool Way that I been thinkin' is cinematic, it's beautiful Man, I don't know if I'm makin' movies or music videos (Videos, videos) Yeah, the sales can rise Doesn't mean much though when your health declines See, we've all got somethin' that we trapped inside That we try to suffocate, you know, hopin' it dies Try to hold it underwater but it always survives Then it comes up out of nowhere like an evil surprise Then it hovers over you to tell you millions of lies You don't relate to that? Must not be as crazy as I am The point I'm makin' is the mind is a powerful place And what you feed it can affect you in a powerful way It's pretty cool, right? Yeah, but it's not always safe Just hang with me, this'll only take a moment, okay? Just think about it for a second, if you look at your face Every day when you get up and think you'll never be great You'll never be great-not because you're not, but the hate Will always find a way to cut you up and murder your faith (Woo) I've been developin', take a look at the benefits Nothin' to meddle with, I can never be delicate Am I even relevant? That depends how you measure it Take a measurement, then bag it up and give me the evidence Pretty evident; dependable can never be tentative I'm a gentleman, depending on if I think you're genuine Pretty elegant, but not afraid to tell you to get a grip Proper etiquette, I keep it to myself when I celebrate, ah It's that time again Better grab your balloons and invite your friends Seatbelts back on, yeah, strap 'em in Look at me, everybody, I'm smilin' big On a road right now that I can't predict Tell me 'Tone that down,' but I can't resist Y'all know that sound, better raise your fist The search begins, I'm back, so enjoy the trip, huh

For the 4 years that this has been out for most of us haven’t even searched up the song “I’ve been making a whole lot of changes”that he said he wrote a song about.

Producer: So what you want for the video? NF: We still have that shoppingcart?

Nf: talks about life problems like depression and stress Everyone: SHOPPING CART

Real definition of underrated 😢😢😢

Ive seen NF twice now and nothing compares to his intro with 'The Search'. The melodies/strings started (I screamed my ass off) and you could see NFs shadow behind a thin white wall and once he said 'where'd the beat go' there was a pause and the curtain dropped and there was our boy NF opening up with one of the best songs ever made.

Other rappers: dancing on top of Lamborghinis NF: dancing next to a shopping cart in the middle of nowhere

Producer: so how many times do you want the beat to drop? NF: yes

“I’m lookin for the map to hope you seen it?!” When the realization kicks in 2:01

I can't believe its been 4 years.. still his songs are moving me ya know!...

Directors: Lamborghini or Ferrari? NF: shopping cart.

The best thing about NF is he never repeats a single line.

This will always be one of the greatest songs ever made in a time of both past and present. To think of all the moments that brought this song to the world amongst all odds, I dont think we will ever be able to fully understand.

Plave Hamin, thank you for introducing me this gem. He is now my playlist.

Directors: ok we have a couple different cars you can choose from we have a Lambo, a Tesla and a Ferrari NF: I think I’ll take the shopping cart

Producer: so you want some kind of a weapon or something ? NF: Balloons

毎日ジムで聞いてる曲だ。この曲は本当に俺を強くしてくれる

Producer: want nice chicks or a helicopter or a cool car? Him:i've got that cool car...

"Where the beat go?" *Beat hits like a truck* YESSSSSSS

Lil Nas X: I made the best rap song of 2019 NF: *Grabs his shopping cart and balloons*

Producer: Sports wagon or station wagon? Nf: shopping wagon

WALMART: our shopping carts keep missing. NF: .....

"Hey Nate, how's life?" Nate: *Proceeds with a 30 page script.*

April 2024 anyone?

Anyone in April 2024

producer: hey i found this shopping ca- nf: *y e s*

I swear this is one of the best (if not THE best) beats I've ever heard in a rap song

Thanks, this saved me

Producers: Will 2 lambos be enough? NF: 🛒

Director : How much color you want NF : No Edit : thx for the likes tho I appreciate it

Deadlift workout music right here 💖 *a u t h e n t I c v i e w s* 💖 dun took NF oFf 2 da big leagues and for dat I will always be super grate

"Doesn't mean much though when your health declines" Everyone who reads this, just remember..... Look after yourselves!!!!❤

Director: Guys, bring in the girls, cars and money NF: No Director: What do u want? NF: Bring my cart and balloons

Society : All rappers do is flexing NF : *Hold my balloons*

This guy puts this into some kind of hymn, isn't it?

Live performance is chef’s kiss ❤

“Where the beat go?” That just dropped harder than Old town road on the billboard

NF is one of the only rappers that doesn’t cuss and still makes bangers

PLAVE Hamin brings me here 🤩

Can't get enough of this song

Lamborghini Nf: I like this Shopping cart Nf: but this is better

People: "You cant rap without cussing" Nf: "Hold my shopping cart"

Anyone in April 2024 💀

Coming back here in 2024 and listening him say “Im lookin’ for the map to hope” having heard hope brought me a whole other level of satisfaction!

DJ Khaled: WE THE BEST MUSIC NF: Hold my balloons

Background: Black, grey Clothes: Black, grey Everything else: Black, grey Shoes: Yellow

Everyone in 2024 👇 👇

Anyone 2050😂

"where'd the beat go?" *whole room vibrates* "WoAH"

Producer: So What Props Are We Gonna Need NF: We Still Got Those Black Ballons ;)

Love your music I am a big fan

This music keeps me sane-ish 😊

Producer: How scary do you want the beat to sound? NF: Yea

Producer: Do u want cars or helicopter? Nf: Nah, shoppingcart.

Other rappers: its so hard to not cuss NF: can you hold my ballons real quick 😂

the lyrics and the beats are🔥🔥🔥🔥

NF should do a live show with a full orchestra that would be amazing

"Hey Nate, how's life? I dont know, stole another shopping cart last night"

NF IS MY FAVORITE SINGER!

플레이브 첫콘💙💜🩷❤🖤 유하민 솔로곡!!（ 」｀д´)」!!🖤

Nate: where the beat go? *Beat drops* Me: *drops* Nate: OH AIN'T THAT SOMETHING!

The lyrics are so brilliantly written, people do not realise that.

Im in that point of life that i needed this song to makes me stronger, Thanx NF

He is objectively better than every other rapper. I have bought this song on fortnite with my well spent vBucks so I can play this banger whenever I play festival mode. He raps so clearly and fast that it is one of the hardest song to play. This absolute God outplayed me in Fortnite and he doesn't even play Fortnite. This is proof that this man is build different!

Producer: So what is your budget? NF: Iceland

NF: Where the beat go???.... *beat drops*! NF: Uuhhh! Aint that something?! Drums came in you aint see that coming! #NoneOfUsSawThis🔥Coming

This still a bop in 2024

하민이 때문에 여기까지 왔어요...

Them: Hey Nate, How's Life? NF: I Don't Know, It's Alright

My friends: How many times are u gonna play this Speaker: Hey Nate how's life.....

who thinks NF is the best✨

띠뜨띠뜨공쥬짱짱걸 때문에 온사람 일단 나부터...😂

2019 Rappers: "im the best rapper." NF: *"Hold my cart!"*

“Never call me forgettable” From FBE, College Kids react to NF edit: one of the kids called his music “forgettable” so that was his response... 2:22 NF 🔥

Wow 🙌🏻

Producer: what car do you want No: naa I have this shopping cart

Nice music ❤❤❤❤ Anyone from 2024

1:56 where’d the beat go? 🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥🔥 This song is actually amazing

2 things NF don't care about 1. Haters 2. Breathing
