This may be in part due to his personal beliefs, but I think it runs rather deeper than that. You’ll find no trace of NF talking about a day of getting high, side chicks, attacking strangers, and rolling up to the club in a matte black Bugatti before bedtime. The lyrics aren’t superficial, nor do they parade the dream lifestyle touted by so many in the genre, desperate for dominance. Those familiar with past records know there is nothing shallow or copycat here. I say unfortunately not to debase Eminem‘s talent – obviously – but because such lazy pigeonholing sells NF incredibly short. The Search, however, sees NF (real name Nathan Feuerstein ) kick his game up a notch or three across the board, having again debuted at the Billboard 200’s top spot at the time of writing this. Unfortunately, the uninitiated immediately label NF an Eminem knock-off. 2017’s Perception was great, debuting at the top of the Billboard 200 with songs I still spin regularly now. For NF, his fourth full-length is suitable cause for that old adage to be questioned. People often say the third time is a charm.
