Steven Willis - The Hustle Speaks

[@Beloved-ec3du]

His laugh in the middle gave me goosebumps. God i love his message.

[@chiannegibbs9462]

Riggghhhhtttt

[@RigobertoTejeda]

you gon’ ignore me even tho you hungry boy? OMG!!

[@Keemyjam]

One of the greatest pieces of our generation. It encompasses an aspect of a community that most people wouldn't notice twice. It is culture. It is truth. It is survival. One of the best. Forreal

[@divalizzous]

"What you going to ignore me even though you're hungry boy? Even though that light bill due & the water bill too?" I'm sure this didn't speak to everyone but when you know you know. The struggle is real.

[@Mztakarahoshi]

divalizzous that shit spoke to me so deep! Put goosebumps on my arms

[@piewee1999]

Gotta work hard just to get ya head above it

[@trillaabree8617]

Dat part.

[@shrewii666]

"You're young, you're black, you're male. Don't you know all you ever gonna have is the hustle?"

[@MomoThePoet]

“You got hustler on both sides of the transaction” COME ON SOMEBODY!!!!!!

[@DamnItDylan]

The title drew me in. The performance knocked me over with its power. Damn.

[@Shawn89311]

A message only a few could understand

[@VinoVenitas]

"Im the rock in that roll." That was the line that made me smile. This was an amazing piece. This was really nicely done. Inspired the spoken word artist in me to do better

[@sainaboujallow3762]

“You’re young you’re black you’re male don’t you know all you gonna have is the hustle “ Man this guy is deep 😩❤️❤️.

[@wtf.iswrongwithella]

I love the way he delivers his poems 🙌

[@iloveyoudaniel]

“Don’t you know you can’t ignore me? I’m bigger than God.”

[@ayanagatling4895]

Delivery was everything💯

[@Tigger3711]

Powerful piece... This is the first time I heard someone personify "hustling" in that way. Loved it

[@myishenhaines1706]

Oh my god. I cant believe im just now seeing this. Absolutly breathtaking. This reads as a poem and a monologue.

[@SuperMartianMadness]

Hit my soul man .... We gotta change our environment

[@annjustin1866]

Powerful! And he just walks away..... Perfect!

[@Stephanie-xg1cz]

Powerful message I love all of his spoken word pieces 😍

[@CamiCushing]

WOW holy shit this was incredible! Not only were the words painfully honest and beautifully woven together but the performance made it something so much bigger than just words on paper. He captured what so many go through. He shone a spotlight on the shadow that whispers to all the men and woman who have worked their hands raw and still have the strength to turn away from the slippery slope waiting around every corner. Thank you for this gift. I'll be keeping an eye out for Steven Willis from now on!

[@FollowingTheRain]

I feel like my eyes were opened. This was a revelation for me. Powerful.

[@laurag1490]

The performance really MADE this piece. No one could have tackled it the same, fucking amazing!

[@eleveneightyseven4165]

"Give them "bricks" so they can build something of themselves".

[@JatMur]

Whether it’s oranges on the side of the highway, dope on a street corner or a cubical 9-5, everyone has a hustle. The hustle plays no favorites with saints nor sinners. I imagine that laugh is how the devil greets you when the hustle finally wins...

[@RockyJSquirrel06]

WOW.

[@JustARandomUkhti]

[@paragondreams340]
