NF: Hip-Hop Rapper

There is an artist out there that many people have not heard of. His name is Nate Feuerstein, he goes by NF. NF is a hip hop rapper and singer who digs deep to write his songs. There is an obvious deep emotional connection within his songs. I speak highly of NF to other people and almost everyone I speak to has no idea who he is. He is signed under a christian label and thus gets thrust into the category of Christian Rap which will automatically turn some people away. Nate does not write like the stereotypical Christian artist, there are no vague struggles showing up in his songs. His songs are influenced by God and mentions him in his songs. He writes to everyone for numerous reasons. Nate is able to transform his personal life and problems into amazing songs. A lot of rappers now a days do not write in such a way that has meaning. I know some artists have their deep songs, but compared to NF they do not come close. Nate is ahead of the game.

NF's first album is called "Mansion" and it has some of the most heart pounding lyrics. In the song "Mansion" he describes his emotional and personal struggles as his mind in the form of a mansion with his issues and lyrics written on the walls. Through the music the last lyrics sticks out the most to me "Is that me or the fear talking? I don't know anymore". When I first heard the song, I felt limp because of how much that one song impacted me. Nate does not put blame on others, he takes responsibility and acknowledges circumstances in his life that have affected him.

Nate's newest album "Therapy Session" continued on the same plane of greatness that "Mansion" was on. He goes even deeper in his lyrics on this album. Nate's mom died of an overdose on pills and it hit him hard. In his previous album, Nate would mention her and the event that happened, but now there is an entire song about what happened. When the song first came on, I had to sit down. I had to listen deeply as he expressed his feelings through the song. I have not heard a more emtionally charged song.

Now NF has his deep and powerful songs, but there are also fun ones that really get you motivated. Some of my personal favorites include "Grindin' (feat. Marty)", "Real", "Motivated", and "Intro". NF is the artist that people need to talk about and to spread his music like wildfire. It is hard to find someone who will give it their all on each album.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
