#TomMacdonald #TheMusicIndustry #Reaction - Hudba
Hey Knox! I Mixed and Mastered this tune, along with all of toms other releases for the past few years. Your reactions are definitely my favourite, I love how in depth you go with the lyrics, flow, production, everything! A couple of things for you; you're right about the intro of the beat. Most of Toms album tracks will have 4 bars of intro before kicking off, but for the videos he cuts it just to the last bar to jump into the song as quick as possible. The album version has the full 4 chords progression of the Choir before the drums come in. I have a video on my channel taking a look at how I process distorted 808s if you wanna check that out!
Evan my man you are the best at what you do my guy! Tom is probably very thankful for someone like you. I hope I can be as good as you some day
Hey, Evan! You have some fantastic skills!
Love your mixes bro! God bless!
Evan... still just amazing.. great great great work here man
Are you really that Evan?
"Tom is so good in front of a camera". That's so true, man. And Nova blows my mind how she makes a single backdrop look so cinematic.
Don't Look Down such a good example. They literally hung pillow stuffing from the ceiling and you can call the visuals simple but if you can turn only cotton stuffing and make the viewer forget that's all that's used, that is uber talent.
But for instance the scene where Tom talks about doing a fly by, he mimics shooting like a tommy gun and it's slowed down, I can conceivably think that he's firing an actual gun.
Also the "peel the skin off and let the metal shine" line where he mimics peeling his forearm back, if you blacked out just his arms it would look like he's actually peeling his skin back.
The guy is a dope rapper but it's obvious the man is a true artiste. He's open about his mental health issues which makes him relatable but I feel like most artistic visionaries or talented creatives have that inner turmoil because their brain operates so much differently than everyone else. And with that comes self doubt, why does nobody see what I see? Why am I so different than other people? It can be a blessing and a curse if you don't address it head on and God willing, Tom seems to possess the awareness to win that battle.
What makes you different makes you human. We all have our burdens and we need to encourage one another; focus on our similarities that dwarf our differences. Another 🔥🔥 song.
Tom is seriously a huge reason I got back into rap. He is easily in top 3 favorite artists out there, for a variety of reasons.
Him and NF are why I started listening to rap again... I'm a little late on both. Truth 💣
He's in my top 10

Man you are the absolute BEST reaction channel, going deeper than anyone else. You ain't scared of the mainstream. Great work man. Tom, you the goat.
Tom got me binging the reaction videos.
You by far pick up more about the videos and the lyrics than anyone else.Good shit man, I was waiting for this one.
he's a rapper so he catches things that not all non-rappers can catch.
Once I found Knox, I stopped wasting my time on all the others.
The swap between the shots Is to show with a label you have enough money you can do a music video next to a lambo, as an independent you have enough money you can burn one
Edit: This isnt limited to money either, The label might not want to have a burning lambo in "their" video because they just got a huge contract from lambo to use there cars and now you cant use those headphones you like on your jog because you might be seen not wearing the ones your label are advertising. Same with shoes or designer clothes.
Music Industry and even Hollywood is running/ruining live's. Actor's are at time's stuck with these crazy contracts where they end up selling there soul ! Henry Cavill is in a crazy contract with his management ! from them making Fake GF'S and Speaking on behave of him on Social Media it's crazy!
I really enjoy watching you react and break down songs. I’m a huge fan of Tom’s and he puts a lot of things in his songs that I sometimes miss. (The demonic laugh) I watch his songs then see the reactions and you always notice or hear something in the background that I miss. Subscribed!
The reason Tom MacDonald switched back and forth between the burning Lamborghini and the clean one, is to show you can get a Lambo by being with a record company. But you can also get it being independent. And have it your way. The reason he was dressed as a "typical hip-hop" star with the clean Lambo, was symbolic as that's what the record company want you to portray. The reason why it said "independent" on the burning lambo was to show that he did it, his way. Without any help! And the video is a great way to visually show what he is saying!
Agree with that but add in the burning to the lambo to show he is on fire as an independent artist

Appreciate it man. Thanks for the comment and for supporting 🙏
I love how you break down the songs, videos, etc....I've watched so many reactors reactions to every song and you are the only one who breaks it down the way it should be done...I appreciate your knowledge and artistry of what it takes to make an awesome production. I also love you as an artist, rapper, etc....keep up the good work!!!! 😉🤗🤭
i like the way he reacts to independent artists
Tom isn't independent at all.
@@MrMisterGaming Tom is a fully independent artist
You’re right, he has all of his fans behind him.
Great reaction Knox. This dude is so underrated, no one and I mean no one catches all the bars like Knox. Subscribe people!!, keep Knox rolling!!!
Knox doesnt just do break downs, he drops knowledge about the dropped knowledge from the artist 💯💯💯💯 a 🦄 among reactions to songs and breakdowns.
Amazing breakdown of the message! Keep the good work!
Eyyy perfect thing to wake up to 😂
Congrats on the 100K man! Favorite "reaction" channel out there since you actually break things down.
That's the way changes are made!!! Thank you very much for supporting the authenticity and real message!!!
I see it being clean and nice plus the moneys on the floor. That’s their offer. Then he gives them there answer the moneys gone and he’s burning their lambo.
Much love to all and from the #HOG❤️
Protect Tom at all costs! #PTAAC
New subscriber from the UK 🇬🇧
One of the best breakdown artist on CZcams, glad I found you!
Keep up the grind! 🎶
Agreed. New sub from Australia here.
The field of dreams. Tom's a lyrical genius, a true MC! Plus I feel he loves this country ❤🇺🇲 I'm a NEW big fan! KnoxHill & TomMAC keep up the good work!
That's all we want from any artist - genuine, raw emotion. Tom brings it like Eminem and Tupac. It's true, honest. It brings people to the debate. Kudoz. I'm hooked.
Outlaw s**t by struggle Jennings
Or Briannas remake
I knew this was coming and glad it did!! Shout out to knox for the breakdown and bringing me to Tom.
Knox..you never ever disappoint us with your breakdowns. And Tom is from another planet. I say Gawd Damn! Well done my friend. You’re insightfulness on the breakdowns are incredible. And over 100K subscriptions and growing. Congrats!
You should do a reaction/breakdown of one of your own songs. That would be awesome to know the amount of thought and all the possible meanings of your bars.
I love the reactions/breakdowns!! But i gotta be honest with ya brotha!! Your music is getting better and better homie!! Keep grinding, your breakthrough is coming soon!! I feel it!!
Tom McDonald coming in with the facts on this Independent Anthem!!! I would love to hear Tom and Knox Hill on a track together. Yall already know they both gonna bring that 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯 Adam Calhoun just dropped a new song and music video call "The Patriot". You gotta check it out, bro!! Keep doing what you do #KnoxNation #ProfessorKnox
Absolutely love this guy and his reactions breaking down the independent rappers
Ive been waiting on you to react to this. Id love to hear a remix with Tom and Church
My man finally got to 100 k subs now the next challenge is ahead lets get this man to 500k subs great break downs of the bars keep them coming just keepin it 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Not going to lie... At first I struggled to watch your content. However now, I love it. You spend alot of time knowing your shit so when you do these reactions you pull so many tracks apart. Keep it up dude!
I just found Knox yesterday and I've watched like 50 reaction videos and downloaded a bunch of his music. 👊🤟🤟🤘
Love your reactions and music Knox-thanks for all the content. Suggestion that I haven't seen anyone react to-Dub Fx. He's been around awhile, started as a street busker. Check out either "Hip Hop" or "Love Someone" (Old Dub Fx), or "So Are You" (New Dub Fx).
Yasss Ive been waiting for u to react to this!!!
I feel that the whip just shows you that you made it money wise. Then when it's burnin and the money lying on the floor it shows you that it is not the most important aspect of "making it" (success).
me again .. SHOUT for Evan!!! ♥ loves you guys, great as always knox. #hog
Gotta respect Tom always keeping it real
I'm ready to hear what you have to say on this one. Great work Knox!!
Check out Mesus. Some awesome work from that artist.
I’ve said it before you are the best reactor! Love your videos. #HOG
@knoxhill I know you are a busy guy but since you are all about independent artists I would LOVE to see you dissect this song called "omniverse" by greyson square. He spits some wild stuff. Been following him for about 6 years now, and I really think you will like alot of his music. Thanks for everything you do man! You rock!
I see it as a major flex. And probably the best flex I've ever saw him do. He's showing that you don't need a label you can accomplish your dreams while independent all through hard work and determination.
I’ve been waiting for you to grab this video since it came out. Fuckin great job man
Yo lol....by far, by far best best breakdown n just ability to intake the lyrics..... respect
I like Tom but for some reason I have the feeling he is an “authorized hero”. Or why isn’t he censored yet? Every other (even small) artist would be already deleted and slandered on social media.
He has worked hard to stay independent. They are trying to "cancel" him. That's why he created that as a new song.
I get what you're saying, i think the powers at be just dont see his power yet.
I think the contrast in the image of the Lamborghini scenes switching is that one is promoting a clean pristine image that the music industry wants to portray and the anarchy of the fire and graffiti signifies the independent artist burning down the system . The truth can be dirty sometimes and sometimes lie are clean.
Hey Knox! Do I hear a little New Jack Swing influence in your song, “Focus”? I like it!
When you asked the fan question. You made me understand why I watch your videos. Great question.
I was never a big fan of rap but he actually got me in to rap
same
I can't wait for both tracks to come out brobro.
Once again Knox killed the reaction..!!
Best breakdown and reaction I have seen so far. Awesome work. 🔥🔥🔥🔥☝️
Tom is brave he talks about things that could get him killed
So does Immortal Technique. And Look At John Lennon. There is also Enter Shikari.
@@mightyquinn3451 Can I ask you something?
@@samanthaarmin3565 what's up.
@@samanthaarmin3565 What did you want to ask?
He made a song in 2019 (I believe) called Trying to kill me.
This track is a banger and your break down is always on point, also check out wannabe by Tom, it's from 6 years ago and is some deep shit, one of his best tracks that gets slept on
They’re offering him the car to sign and he’s giving it back with his answer....
To answer your question about the lambo. I think the scenes switching back and forth is either our realization of the music industry throughout his songs making us aware of the situation, or it is how his perception changed throughout his experience with these producers. He's quoted in other songs that he was realizing that they were corrupted and heinous. Like you said the lambo and money symbolizes the "goal" Of making it. He's burning that idolized goal. Disrespecting it to show he wants nothing to do with it. It's a massive statement from him.
I think the reason why he switched back and forth between shots is because when he wasn’t burning it he was debating about actually taking the deal for the money and cars but then realized that he doesn’t need those things from a label and then set it on fire to show that
Love your vidz love how you brake down the muzic and video work.
Keep up your breakdowns. Always enjoy them👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥 Next up Adam Calhoun new music video🙏
Great reaction as always Knox
Your reaction was great! Tom Macdonald brought me here but you are what will keep me coming back! Just hit the subscribe button🤘🏻HOG
Always amazeing reviews. Its why I subbed.. If you take it down to raw basics toms songs are "Good vs Evil" he gives you the facts but he wants everyone to choose there own path! In My Bible Opinion.
Why? Don't know, ask Nova 🤣🍬😂
Great reaction like always 😍❤️🙌
I don't know if any of you noticed, but during the switches between clean lambo and independent lambo there wasn't any money laying on the floor on the clean lambo (label), independent was littered with money.
"Tupac used to reference the illumnati' ... yeah, what happened to him anyway....
You ever going to do a reaction to Toms My Fans video or have you already seen it?
Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers
"ain't no angels in the outfield" is a double meaning. Angels as in forces for good, and Angels as in the term for patrons that support the arts with their money.
Dude!!!! I forgot about Angels in the Outfield. Love that movie
I think he did the scene switches with car to show “this is what I could have if I signed” (clean car) vs “ fuck that they can’t buy me. This is what I think of their contract, I did this myself” (burning car) . He has Gucci on in both scenes. He has everything labels could have offered him, but he did it independently, no contract. He’s saying fuck the contracts and label companies I’ll rip your contract up and burn your offers
Spot on too ! Thanks for being real .
Awesome reaction man. Love how you break down the songs. My take is with the lambo burning is Tom being independent and the other would be his image if he signed. True tom vs industry signed tom. Hey man check out Adam Calhoun the patriot it’s awesome you will like it
I think Tom is showing the whip in both states to show how he COULD be, because we get to see not only the car but also Tom all shiny looking like a signed artist, then we see Tom as he chooses to be when the whip is graffitied. Dressed the way he likes, with the harder bass and bars, and always stating that he will forever be independent. This video shows the path Tom could have gone down as a signed artist, then mocks that very idea as he proclaims that he stands for something better. The thing I like most, which gives it the biggest feeling of honesty, is how much Tom put's value on money on both portrayals of himself, because lets be real being able to make bank is important to him and most artist, but he STILL emphasizes the need to stand for something more. Which I think is cool, you can have your cake and eat it too if you are willing to sweat hard enough for it.
Another amazing breakdown video Knox
Nice comedy improv backdrop. Was this before or after the capped-off pyramid with the open eye atop?
What I think the clean Lambo vs the trashed Lambo represents is this. The clean car represents that earned it on his own, so he's proud of it. The trashed Lambo represents what his record label bought him. (If he were to sign to a label.) And basically saying "Fuck this shit! I didn't earn it, I signed my life away for it. So it means nothing to me."
Also, I’m at the point where I just like the video before you start reacting bro you kill it
Second time watching this reaction! Love your break downs. #HOGfam

This title is so true. #no clickbait
Careful offering glue Knox, you might actually get stuck with that one
🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Its time to stick together" lmao man you kill me with those I love it
I love Focus. Been bumping it in the car on drives. Also, love Tom. This song is great. HOG fl.
I think the reason for the switch is because he is very independent, dose everything for himself and wants to show what he thinks of the music industry, but he also wants so show that he made it as an independent artist, who else agrees with me?
The best music ive ever heard no matter the genre were never signed to major labels. The bigger the label the worse the music
Really love your reactions man. I would love it if you reacted to anything by Ekoh he has so much talent.
Heard but can't verify from where I'm sitting, but the clean and pretty car is one he bought himself either for Nova or his dad (He didn't aim to keep it either way.) And the burning one that he cut up was one he was sent as part of an attempt to parley by some agent someplace. So he looked at it and said "Thanks but-" and torched it, then bought up another just as a last laugh. Think he actually had tweets about it too. Have to go back and look.
Just heard ur latest track, it was absolute flames!
Also tom is the truth, literally loved this one, great reaction!
p.s Have u thought about checking out Lucidious?? i think youd really liked it
p.p.s cant wait for battle sessions!!
Lucidious is fire
I will share 1 or 2 links in the Discord
Watched quite a few of your reaction videos but never subscribed. Had to subscribe today because you break down the bars exactly how the artist actually meant them. it's almost like you listen to the song once before you do a reaction. Not saying you do, just giving props for the way you catch things so well. Most people can't do that
The Lamborghini represents what the music industry will give you and the scene with it burning and graffitied represents him saying he doesn't want it, and doesn't support the industry
I think tom goes back and forth between the lambo being clean but it’s under a label and it’s controlled so it looks like clear sky’s but in the end it’s the worst decision you can make and the lambo on fire I think he uses to play Into the fact that being independent is a constant fight and it’s hard to accomplish but when you put in the time and effort you’ll be happier and more successful. Just like the grass isnt always greener on the other side type vibe
Also I think it reflects his style to industry style of music video production like the fancy cloths, nice car, money on the floor, and hair too at least that's what I caught through transitions
Deranged Shadow yes 100%!
@@Bspoor7482 Can I ask you something?
@@derangedshadow1663 Can I ask you something?
@@samanthaarmin3565 yeah
In regards to his choice to keep switching back and forth between looks at the end, I believe he is just straight up slapping label guys who have come to him with money and suicide contracts. Hes basically saying that everything they offered him, he now has and does better because its his own vision driving that beautiful ride.
This channel is "UNDERRATED"
I believe the car is a double in itself. Basically saying that you can get the stuff you want and it be just as nice independently. But also to the labels saying I don't need what you can give me, if ya wanna keep trying me I'll burn that shit down.
I think he played the burning lambo like the monuments and structures today during the protests. monuments, capitol buildings, police stations are the symbols of the establishment of government. Lambo is the symbol in this scenario of the music establishment. so i think he is symbolizing the destruction of the establishment of the music industry by doing these visuals. my thoughts, always love your reactions man, you break down bars in ways that a lot of reactors cant. keep doing what you do and much love from the Florida Bay Area my dude.
You gotta watch the last couple second when he semi-moons the camera 🤣🤣
Because he probably wants to show that his independence doesn’t mean he can’t have a sick whip but also wants to show that at the same time he wants to show where he came from and that he is still completely independabt from a boss but not the fruits of his labor
i think it flicks back and forth to represent the choice of going mainstream or staying independent
The visual symbolization, to me, is a very passive way to show you don’t need to sign the industry contracts to receive the same benefits. However, I think by him burning the car shows he doesn’t care about the monetary value but rather the value his lyrics and music brings. Just a thought.
Would love to see your reaction to N.E.W S by Mesus. Its 🔥
This songs a fucking banger. Nice reaction. Hi Knox and hi Tom cause you know he's watching
