WHY AM I DONG IT THIS WAY?
A lot of channels do Patreon or KZhead Memberships at a cost to the viewer which puts a lot of content behind a paywall, meaning it is pay to view, and a large amount of the subscriber base miss out on a lot of content, or the quality of the content available to non members reduces. I don’t like this approach.
My way - EVERY one will get to see ALL content. If you aren’t in a position to donate - you still get to see ALL content and your current experience of the channel will NOT change at all. If you do want to support the channel then you get to decide how I prioritise the videos.

Xxxtentacion has many face tattoos, including a numb tattoo under his right eye. X always had a negative image because of the things he did in the past (he was a big problem in Florida) but as he got older and more mature he changed his life around to become the leader of the youth and misguided before he was shot and killed during a robbery at age 20. His last instagram story was about the charity event he was hosting that weekend in Florida. I would recommend xxxtentacion Jocelyn Flores thanks for this great reaction ❤
Thanks for sharing more of his story with me. Sounds like a tragedy what happened. Going to check out some more.
@@TherapistReactsOfficialhe just wanted to go buy a bike man, he just wanted a bike. He didn’t have security. But nowadays when rappers have security they are “cowards”.
Bro I wish so bad that he had security @@Traaahjhh
@@Traaahjhh He was buying bike for Trippie red for his birthday😢
Jocelyn Flores would be a good one for you to do by xxxtenacion, It's a song dedicated to his friend who killed herself.
He fucked his friend?
😢
My daughter just saw I uploaded this video and was super impressed that I was talking about XXXTentacion. Although she did say that EVERYONE who is cool has heard of him before! Must make me her uncool dad then lol! Thanks Sooooo much to the person who left me a Super Thanks. For some reason I cannot find the comment that it was connected with, but I just wanted to let you know its massively appreciated, thanks again.
damn this is cute
Getting “caught in traffic” is a double entendre for getting caught and killed by your enemies while also having the first meaning to.
Ah okay that makes sense, thanks for sharing
That refrain of "Don't go to sleep, don't go, stay up and don't go." Whether or not it's meant, it reminds me of when my PTSD is at its worst, because you stay up to avoid the night. And also because you got to the end of the day, and you don't want the next one to start because you're exhausted and just trying to survive is too hard. Facing those nightmares followed by a whole other day of getting to the end is just: nope. Let's put that off for another hour. Another one. This is a really interesting question, because I was asking it the other day and lots of people don't die in their dreams. I was surprised. Is it just me? Because I've definitely been murdered quite a few times in mine.
I’m trying to think of I’ve ever had a dream of myself dieing. I don’t think I have to the extent of which we are talking. I think I’ve fallen off cliffs, or been chased by people trying to get me etc but never the actual dieing part I don’t think. I probably will do now tonight as my brain will be thinking about it! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
@@TherapistReactsOfficial Oops... I cursed you. Well, I'm still here so if you do dream it you won't die in real life. I've been stabbed a lot, and mutilated, and had limbs cut off. I used it in my horror writing more than once, so... bonus, I guess? Ooohh! That's like Ren's Power song. I turned it into power. Ooo... I never thought of it like that! I'm going to be happy for the rest of the week now lol
I recommend his song revenge. Was the first song I heard from him when I realized he’s an actual artist. And regarding his line “I don’t want to go outside, get caught in traffic”, it’s actually quite depressing because he literally means he doesn’t want to get caught in traffic in his car because someone can kill him. This is exactly what happened…
Will do, thanks for the recommendation.
@@TherapistReactsOfficialof course! I just updated the comment with some insight
Oh wow, didn’t realise that about the traffic line! Thanks for sharing
@@SimplyyBravowas it rlly traffic tho? He got blocked off by the sick bastards when he was making a turn
XXX sadly was murdered right in my town. So sad and I'm glad those thugs finally got their justice!
please more X reactions!
Gladly, any specific tracks?
@@TherapistReactsOfficialJocelyn Flores
Hope by X @@TherapistReactsOfficial
Jocelyn Flores would be a good one
JOCELYN FLORES @@TherapistReactsOfficial
Just to clear up confusion you may h he wasnt caught in traffic he was STALKED right in and out of that dealership! They knew he had that money on him! i get sad every time i drive passed. Great reaction as usual!
Thanks for clarifying as I’m getting more interested in his story.
reason he said he don't caught like cuaght in traffic becuase he was robbed while in traffic.. and shot and killed as he was leaving the dealership while a black SUV pulls up and opens fire to his neck causing him to die. and this story was about his EX girlfriend@@TherapistReactsOfficial
Drake payed them fo sho. They probably hit drake up on some “wanna get rid of this guy? $$$” Type timing
Man U nailed so much he’s not only an insanely great artist but he was so smart an every single word has a deep meaning in almost every one of his songs . Literally the greatest artist I’ve ever heard in all of music
X is literally one of the reasons I'm here today his music ment much to me it helped me get thru my lowest so much that I actually contemplated taking my own life when he past bcuz I felt that I lost the only thing keeping me alive but with the help of his music and others music I started listening to I made it out that hole and am doing pretty good now im now almost 4 years sober and am in a loving relationship and tbh if it wasn't for x or peep or $b I probably would've od back in 2017 bcuz thats when the only thing I wanted was to take drugs and die but they're music got me out of that lifestyle and I'm forever grateful 🙏 rip x rip peep rip juice and thank you for everything ❤
Glad you’re doing good now, stay strong my friend.
“I don’t want to die and get caught in traffic” he then died in his car, he probably seen it coming in his dreams. “Everybody dies in their nightmares”
He actually meant what he said about the tat on his face. He had multiple tats on his face. Most popular one is the tree of life on his forehead.
Getting caught in traffic in slang terms can mean getting killed in the street. Mainly getting seen out by those who wants to do you wrong while driving and unable to go anywhere
great analysis man. I remember feeling like X saved my life in middle school when i was depressed because his music was so impactful and easy to connect to. Im 20 now and no longer deal with depression, but X will always be top 5 for me.
And please react to more of xxxtentacion im a big fan his music is deep and most of the times u listen to him u would question own mistakes and existence
I’ve got Revenge on the way!
5:20 Getting caught in traffic is a slang term. If you are stuck in your car with nowhere to go, people that want you dead have a stationary target. X grew up in an unstable home and was in and out of the prison system as a young teenager. He probably knew some people he had done dirty at one point or another when he was desperate wouldn't be too happy about him blowing up and becoming rich. The tragic irony of this line today is that he was boxed in leaving a dealership and shot dead in a robbery in his car, giving this line a chilling feel.
Getting caught in traffic is to get caught lacking, Paranoid about if someone's gonna pull out something on you in traffic, its just real life Trauma in music form. Lol i got caught it was a life changer fr lol
Hello just found you today hearing xxxtentacion... It was a therapy session for us
You’re videos are like medicine to me I appreciate what you offer the world🙏🏼
X had “NUMB” tattooed under his right eye Rip x
that songs reminds me at a time whenever i was at my absolute lowest. i love x and miss him just as much as i love juice and miss him. great reaction too!
You should react to Jocelyn Flores! It's such an emotional song
It’s on the list to do!
i can see and feel your gift for this job, your're winning sir great stuff😁
Definitely a story and a journey with X. Please dig into more
i'm a bit late to this, but this analysis was very keen to his mind and open-minded. from hearing many critics, i can appreciate an open mind and thorough first take. you got the part about the repetition spot on, he did that on a lot of songs bcuz even if it was repetitive, it did simulate and vocalize what the thoughts going through someone's depressed/dark mind are like. one things i'd like to point out about X's music is that he's very lyrical (some songs more than others) with the way some lyrics have deeper meaning or connections to other lyrics than you initially comprehend, but in this particular song, everything connects beautifully (as depressing as the song is): - he wants to die in the night time - only time i feel pain when i feel love: he feels numb to emotion and pain only until he feels or receives love, at that point pain is possible. the specific pain is up for interpretation based on his other songs (he has stated in other songs he's numb) - the numb tattoo lyric is literal (he has many tattoos, facial and body that express his feelings and many of those that he based into songs, albums, etc.) - only time he is in his mind, is when he's alone: this is where everything connects - that's why he's never really alone in the night time these parts are the main connections for me, but the other lyrics of the song also fit into this: he wants to die in the night time, but that's only if he's alone in his mind. he is numb. so on one hand, he wants company so he can feel something; feel love, but on the other, he wants it to be temporary bcuz opening up fully to love that he wants makes himself vulnerable to being hurt by the company and by himself; his own mind hurting him with the memories of his past-trauma. being numb and feeding himself temporary love with these "h0es" causes a fire-starter addiction, making him feel lost so simultaneously, he avoids "going outside" and "traffic" (to me, "going outside" means going out and dealing with the world as a whole with all it's problems, his social life, and/or dealing with/finding more company/"h0es" and "traffic" is metaphorical for the thoughts in his mind piling up like a traffic jam as a result of going outside). you can tell that all of what he wants contradicts in some way; each want needing to avoid each other in some way to function, even if temporarily, but each want also feeding into the other in some way. like puzzle pieces that don't go together, but also do. while relatively simple in delivery, it is very powerful when you dive into it and connect the bits and pieces. hope this helps at all for this song or if you do any more listening. great video! (sorry for going on this tangent, but lyricism has always captivated me. plus, i couldn't really help myself, given this is one of my favorite artists. i hope i didn't miss anything in my explanation. also sorry if i made any grammatical mistakes, i was never too good in english class lol and it is quite late for me. i may try to make corrections later.)
I've heard this artist but not this song, very powerful
First time of both for me. Really liked it. There’s a lot of powerful music out there that I haven’t come across (although according to my daughter EVERY body who is cool has heard of xxxtentacion), must make me uncool!
@@TherapistReactsOfficialWell you've heard of him now so maybe you can redeem your street cred with your daughter. 🙂 Great insight, as usual. Really enjoying this journey.
the sample was done by a person called "Shiloh Dynasty", she has a lot of very beautiful songs
The concept of aloneness is different for everyone. I think it is right what xxxTentacion says about no one knowing anyone completely; and because of this aloneness is both inevitable and on occasion essential. Sometimes, like you said Stuart it’s because we don’t proffer enough information to make conversations real enough, sometimes it is down to us not being able to make ourselves fully understood. Other times it is down to misinterpretation, or us as individuals choosing to lie or misdirect people away from us; and thus choosing to be alone rather than have to deal with the lives and complications of being with/around others. However, there is a fine line between aloneness and self isolation. The former is not always a prerequisite of the latter, and vice versa. I think the line “Don’t go to sleep” might be, as someone else said in the comments, about being afraid of the monsters that come in the dark; or being afraid to face the next day. However, for some those words could be relevant because they have self medicated and are afraid if they go to sleep, they may not wake up again.
"Don't want to go outside get caught in traffic" tragic given the way he passed, essentially a robbery gone wrong while he was in his car.
Didn’t realise at the time I made this, seems such a waste of a life.
thank you so much for keeping his name alive bro
Look up a pic of him. Numb is a very popular tattoo of his actually
Yeah I did , I just couldn’t show it in the video cos of copyright issues. Didn’t see the numb one but will check it out again.
This made me cry... Me and my hubby have been threw situations and now i feel like ive just made his worse i look stupid rn havin a breakdown over things for months just cuts to close to home i guess..
Great reaction
great insight
Bro today the person I like told me they don’t like me so I’ve been quiet the past few days at school and that little speak of words has been going through my head
X and Juice's deaths are moments where we say where were you when you heard, my inspirations all leave me 😢
Carry on Xxxtentacion
Rip xxxtentation fly high 🕊️
Great breakdown...X was a great artist, hes one of the only artists who has lyrics eith such deep meanings. Do Jocelyn flores and Carry on by x, those are also some other songs with deep lyrics
More XXXTENTACION Reactions Plzzz.....
i love your ideas and interpretations on his music and you are very interesting to watch, subbed. also for a recommendation you should check out The remedy for a broken heart by x aswell.
Rip X
He actually says only time I. Feel pain is when I’m alone he has a face tat that says alone
Song:Dead inside. by X
You earned a new sub
Thanks for the support Joshua
please more reaction to XXXtentacion i love your explination
Got one being uploaded soon - revenge
Hey you need to do wingriddenangel by xxx definitely one of his deepest songs
You should check out “i spoke to the devil in Miami” and revenge. They’re both from xxxtentacion
Xxx went thru a lot (rest in peace) he sadly wasn’t the nicest of people but you find some issue with stuff he did can be caused by bad relationships. He was 19(i think) and had done many crimes. Songs I recommend: moonlight, jocelyn flores, revenge, the remedy of a broken heart, look at me, revenge and i dont wanna do this anymore. And aswell I recommend billie eilish one of his great friends if yu havent does anything with her before as shebis cery popular
4 weeks ago this was uploaded and didn't know he died already
MORE X PLS
Definitely more on the way, thanks for commenting
I think he meant with getting caught in traffic 5:43 he don't want to get caught lacking in traffic and end up dead.
I have seen a few different people analyze the vocals of the lead singer of Silent Lucidity by Queensrÿche, but I have never heard anyone break down the meaning of the lyrics. The lyrics are very interesting, and I think you might find some interesting talking points in them. Please check it out when you have a chance. Thank you, Stuart.
Thanks will check that out
Hes singing dont go to sleep and stay up could that and wanna die in the night time be put together he really wants to die in the night time and then tells himself dont go to sleep stay awake like do end this?
X’s mom was a stripper his mother and farther were divorced and his step mom got cheated on by his dad and his dad sold drugs his brother/uncle committed suicide bc of drugs etc and he got in to a lot of fights sticking up for others and his dad had also went to jail
Also recommend songs carry on,before i close my eyes,save me,I don’t let go
the samples youve been hearing in this & Jocelyn Flores is from a anonymous artist named 'Shiloh" she released original versus on her instagram then disappeared out of nowhere & XXX had connections with her before she disappeared from social media
!!!!!!DOWN IN A HOLE - ALICE IN CHAINS!!!!!!
i would love to see "denver" by jack harlow its about his hardships with his fame and how he views his life compared to what it looks like from the outside. these videos are so good im binging them all now thank you❤

He actually had the word numb tatted in his face
GTSCHRIS - Damaged ? I’m a 16 year old artist made this song when I was 15.
NUMB is th word tatted under his eye
It’s actually on his face
he was worried about exatly what happend he got caught/murderd in traffic
Alone pt 3 is pretty deep
I’ll check it out. Thanks!
Alone pt 3 is nothing compared to the pt 1 and 2 tho
Nah, he legit has "NUMB" tatted on his face along with other things too, like the tree of life, the three dots 17 and other stuff
Do hope pls
It was really sad he died because of 4 robbers They wanted to get 50,000 dollars he got from the bank and he tryed getting out of his car and one of the guys shot him in the back and kept shooting him and he was rushed to the hospital but passed and it was sad but he is in a better place now
plz try jocelyn flores
I think to sum it up, hes hyper polar, so yeah.
the "traffic" x was talking about was the people who murdered him. RIP
He was avoiding his 4 friends that got him killed
You should really do Jocelyn Flores. His pain is hard to hear
Do changes xxxtentacion
It’s already on my channel.
Do $uicideboy$ Antartica
I’ll check it out thanks!
@@TherapistReactsOfficial just some context. They are from new orleans and are a duo of cousins. Scrim and ruby were both drug addicts but are now sober and cali sober.
I would recommend listening to let's pretend we're numb also by X , his passing was incredibly sad I don't know if I've related to an artist more than him in my life.
I’ll check it out thanks.
