NF gets real in “Nate” , where he talks to his six-year-old self. Let me explain.
“ok ok?” is such a deep song, where Josh Taylor gets real about how he’s seeing fame and fast success, and how he’s dealing with it; and I explain this song and the music video; and I get a little bit vulnerable with you, guys.
NF’s “Change” is deep; it’s one of the new 20 songs that he has on his new album; so we’ll be talking about it today.
Today we are going to talk about a song that is pure gold, literally "Pure Gold"; and yes, I just made that joke, and so did just about every single YouTube comment on the video for the official audio for "Pure Gold" by half.alive #sorrynotsorry
NF has just released a music video for “Leave Me Alone“; and it is so good; there is a lot that’s going on in the music video, and a lot more to unwrap in the lyrics. He talks about OCD, therapy, fame, and so much more. So let’s talk about it.
“The Archer”; the fifth song in Taylor Swift’s new album is so vulnerable and so very personal; and we’ll be diving into some good lyrics, and sweet sounds. So let me explain.
NF has just released a music video for his song “Time”; and it’s beautiful. It’s about his wife, his mental health, love, and life; and of course, needing a bit of time.
