The Manliest Song Ever Made 

Wait isn't Dax- nvm

@Huracan360 he's not black, he's a youtube rapper.

@elpurp Right.. 💀

True and brave

What in the Will Smith!?

Truly one of the messages of all time.

God that is just. So bad.

Really sad

Just keeping the cycle going and not seeing the irony smh

I love the idea that crying in front of your kids curses them. Man, my dad crying only made more more empathetic and kind - although I suppose that's what Dax thinks a curse is lol

@onions "Ya but what if that empathy and kindness gets directed towards people I don't like?!?!?!? Betcha didn't think of that, did ya?"

​@HighTechPioneer what?

​@Mars he's attempting to represent the underlying nonsense that drives people who think expressing emotions and having empathy is somehow a bad thing

​@Dollface isn't he rapping against not crying of front of your kids. Like, that's the curse.

“Song” you almost spelled ‘wrong’ correctly.

@Persuasive Barrier lame comment

This is literally the top comment on that video currently.

@Mark Shortall im replying to a copy/paste from the actual music vid. That* is incredibly lame.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

who?

​@halle uwu I think Jax from Mortal Kombat.

"I'm from the school of notorious. Puba. Cube and the poor righteous teachers. I tutored my students. Showed them the blueprint and formula but the more they study my music the more they remind me of eyeballs I'm watching my pupils get cornier" Truest eminem lines of his career

Lmao facts

Haven't heard a word about this guy for the past 4 years

Jokes aside, men's issues are real, but this is the opposite of how you adress them in a productive manner. This is wallowing in filth.

This whole "I can't show weakness, I can't ask for help, I must provide on my own, I am entitled to my family bc of all that" attitude is self-destructive. It's just picking the worst script for yourself and believing that this is how life is, nothing gets better. Pridefully ruining your brain and your relationships bc you HAVE TO be a stoic manly man in charge. Really sad.

Bro spittin 📠

@Maison K Anthony spat here, so I felt inspired.

​@taigawoods yeah the second part where he starts talking about what men should do about it is dumb af. Like the complaints he showed, and how society largely still doesn't really care about men's issues are true. However, his approach is WHY society does not care. "Don't show emotion to your sons or anyone" is why no one can fully understand your issues. Clinging onto an impossible role is, frankly bad for you.

This shit right here

yah that’s pretty much it, wait til you encounter the Brocialists tho

And it's all because some nerd gots us like this lol

@F brocialists? Please elaborate?

Funny haha or funny queer?

I didn’t even realize they collaborated. Quadeca is amazing though

Fr quadeca makes new sounds

I dont like quadeca that much but I appreciate him for bringing up and showing something different every time. Dax is just fucking awful

At my old job there was a guy that didn't take his lunch breaks and I was like bro just take the 30 you'll enjoy it lol

HELP- 😭 They literally think they’re doing something by not taking a lunch break, pissing, or even drinking a sip of water for 8hrs straight then flex about being productive.

I don’t eat 😎💪

but if he wasn't complaining about not taking lunch then who cares? as long as he felt good with himself and his work at the end of the night that's all that matters lol

@Randolpher You felt called out huh Randy?

😂😂😂😂😂😂

💀

i played this to my girlfriend and their boyfriend, they didn't like it. now i have to sleep in the dog cage :(

Sneako's alt, we're glad you're here.

​@man boy at least you respect its pronouns

No if you really want him to stop you smack him you don't want to start him on a road to a generational cures of showing emotions;)

lol wtf!!! I’m having so much fun with these high end comments, bro so good!!!

@Da Miten hell yeah brother 💪😎 Real men should only start generational curses based around violence. Starting one based around sadness is some real p-word behavior fr fr no cap!!! 🧢 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💪😎

Waow I didn't know that. Is it true? He's never mentioned that before

Almost as hidden as logic being biracial

​@OrganicFishPastewait logic is biracial? No way

wow after knowing this new found information my admiration towards his journey as an artist just went up by 69%

Bro why would you leak that

Dark triad music

The legend himself

Wow

You tried to copy Jasiah and got called out for it.

Sooo.... Tom macdonald fandom?

@St. Lotus 🤓☝️ Actually, Tom MacDonald is very lyrical and smart, you just aren’t very smart, but as a liberal, I wouldn’t have expected anything of value from you. Erm, if you aren’t a man, just say it!

@Mocap Cow (ik this is a joke comment, but for response to people who are serious) I already know what Tom macdonald is saying, but he is a trash artist, someone like Cole or kendrick can get the same message across and make actually good music

Bro, Brad Taste in Music is literally who you're talking about 💀 He did not suffer through Demondice's entire discography just for you to say that hahaha

@Remy Havoc Brad gang

You should of blared something else in return

​@St. Lotusshould have*

very based take

You were fortunate that you weren't raised surrounded by toxic masculinity. For a ton of men they are so stuck in that toxicity that telling them to "just cry" is like telling a depressed person to "just be happy". They shouldn't have to feel this way but they have been born and raised being told that they should and it's a nasty thing to escape.

It’s crazy to me how blind people are to the shit the men get on a daily basis😂

@Dj Deity are you serious

@Hedgelocked dead ass serious .🙂

big fish

BagBak

@Alex Skorbjaschenskij i was literally gonna say that 💀

Lmao “lyrical genius”

Where did it ooze from?

The way Fantano approaches expressing feminist and otherwise progressive ideas is so accessible and hard to disagree with for people who are looking in from the outside. It's never preachy, it's light hearted and fun while still treating the subject with the seriousness and respect it needs. We need more people like Melon on the online left, we as a community can often come off as offputting and gatekeepey, I hate seeing so many potential comrades pushed away.

​@Tay Tay I mean - just SO well-said. Thank you.

Genuinely is that radio head song that good?

​@St. Lotus YES

Fantano: "There's another way.." "So just go there, to the YMCA, I'm sure they can help you today"

The janitor wasn't one of the band unfortunately. They don't get on with motorcycle cops and Native Americans (janitors are very racist 😉)

I hear the sounds coming out his mouth🔥they make me.. and then… truly the one song of time

Made my tip creamy fr . Tip moist . Tip sticky .

if Beethoven comes back to life the only artist hes cosigning is dax 💯💯💯

@Im_Z_4747 huh 😰

Bro chill.

It's annoying and there's a good chance that artist is ridiculed in the community

Worst form of praise ever

Cringe

@persona no u

How is telling men their problems don't matter and aren't real a "positive force"?

@volumizer That's not what he's saying at all. He's saying (and specifically said at 11:37) that the feelings are valid, but accepting that reality as fact and wallowing in it instead of breaking this generational curse of isolated and repressed masculinity is bad. Accept the reality: many men have unfair expectations thrust upon them by other people. Create change: don't define your life as this and think it makes you a man. Do you want your kids to grow up feeling like shit, being emotionally shut off and viewing themselves as a tool to bring in money for people because that's the only way they think they will find a place in society? If your answer is yes, you're part of the problem. If your answer is no, maybe you should take a hard look at what you can do to better your own life and perspective so they don't continue to hurt men in the future. Your problems matter, men's problems matter, but continuing this cycle only perpetuates yours and so many other men's problems. We need to learn that emotions are okay, and if someone thinks they're not being "you're a man", tell them to get fucked and surround yourself with people who don't make your life worse.

Made me grow 6 inches ngl. It manned me up. Edit; I am talking about height!

@Mocap Cow cringe

Lmaoooo 💀💀💀

Berserk fan talking facts.

It seems there's a lot of rap artists out there making songs with these cheesy, unnecessarily-dramatic, preach-y lyrics/themes. It's tragic, hip-hop and rap isn't about being a "peace and love, we are one" virtue-signaler. These guys have potential but instead they burn it away by being disingenuous and, at times, borderline fraudulent. Tom MacDonald is a disgrace, there's my two cents.

@MuddyCatfish logic Dax tom McDonald and Joyner Lucas all go in the I think my musics good cus I have a message box. But they still produce hot dog shit

@Mcgavin Clapping Tom McDonald's is the type to watch Christianity debunked videos on youtube

I am failing so hard to see where you guys get the idea he is saying men *SHOULD* feel this way. It seems like he's saying men *DO* feel this way, to me. Maybe he's not offering any solutions, but I don't think there's a solution that can be offered in a song or in a video analyzing the song for that matter. Leaving aside the "don't cry in front of your kids" part. That's stupid.

Good job bro. What MMO?

Thats so sick to read, hell yeah dude. I'm trying to get that point one day too with mmos!

hahaha okay this is the same thing i guess

same thing happened to me years back, only i didn't play with others cuz i was being an angsty brat of a teenager. funnily enough, the game series ".hack//gu" is literally about an edgy doomer loner that solo'd his way to max level getting depowered and being forced to rely on others and subsequently wind up not only orders of magnitude stronger but also realizing he never knew the game he played had a damn arena mode that's like super popular. bro went through the game for like years or some shit never knowing that the equivalent to raids existed in the game. and he stopped being an edgy dipshit too!

from playing an mmo to taking pills🤔

ye

Sadly when it comes to music exploration, you'll get those people

Then I will make sure to be one of the bad ones

"I'm a 64 year old dad and I don't like hip-hop, but this is one of the realest songs ever made. Thanks, Dax"

I thought you were dead bro

*deserved, but didn't need.

Freals lmao

I think it's a homophobic dog-whistle. Same-sex couples can get married too, but they rarely change their last names. It's intentionally excluding gay men from the song.

@Stoyan Stoykov I don't think Dax would know that, considering he's singing from the perspective of an heterosexual name of course he's not gonna talk much about gay men

@Stoyan Stoykov are you joking? 💀

I always found it super interesting how in Korea, married women don't take the husband's last name, but Eastern Asian culture is way more conservative and patriarchal in comparison to Western counterparts.

your empathy is staggering lol

Who is everyone else? Women?

@Blav do you think this video represents all men or a certain ilk? This is basically a kid rock video.

@Blav dogs children and women and maybe cats

​@Blav baby turtles have it pretty rough. They born and they are already in a battle Royale match

Those syllabus are hitting the prostate huh

most of them aren’t. Literally isn’t a bad song

Same for kids today dealing with patrick bateman memes. he’s not normal or deep, bro! 😂

When chatgpt can explain issues better then dax

Tbh that's a good response but it doesn't really understand the point Anthony addressed, which is that the song seems like it's about the problems with being a man but doesn't offer any solutions or new perspectives

Sick now do Angelic 2 The Core

It is, and dax didn't do a good job explaining it

To be fair, you weren't subject to the same aspects of toxic masculinity that a lot of men were when growing up. People might take emotional issues and complaints in general from men more seriously than they do women but the idea of actually asking for help has such negative connotations for a lot of men because of the way they were raised. This leads to the nasty spiral that starts with songs like this, and generally ends up in differing levels of misogyny.

@Evan Schaefering I also dealt with the expectation to not ask for help for fear of being seen as crazy and hysterical, as well as other personal family reasons. This is one of those cases where the expectations for men and women are similar, even if they come from seemingly different places. Like I said though my opinion is based on my own experience.

@Cat1803 you will never be a man

@fuego nah bro, he’s always been a man.

That's most likely because you're around people who are willing to reinforce the idea that you are a man in the first place. Obviously they're going to validate whatever your feelings are.

The cringe rap genre is 100% the product of Eminem.

Lmao she'd just call him a fascist or something, if her "violence is boyhood socialization" shit is any indication
