[@ijeleanozie9543]

He is celebrating blackness at all levels. It could have been black from anywhere. Black is black to the world When you get arrested, no police officer will ask you what black are you, who you are, how you have served your community-we are black, and everything else, let's celebrate that!!!!because others don't see "US" we know "US"......

[@traceyburns8043]

AND he used people of all shades in the video. In fact, a lot of the focus in the shots were on the women with darker skin, and I think that was done on purpose because of the history of colorism against darker women. He really thinks everything through. Nothing is done by accident.

I'm a little dissapointed with this track personally. I think his rapping is sweet, the lyrics amazing but I find the beats just the same predictable modern style that is gimmicky and cheap sounding, with those generic snares and over-compressed production. You could take off D'smokes rapping and put it with any other modern rapper and you'd never know.

[@xSTUDmuffin1515x]

@@roomathousandyearswide The only other rapper that could kill this shit would be Kendrick. and he couldn't bring the depth and vibe that D Smoke blessed on the track. He's the unexpected variable to the music industry. Everything I hear from him is one of a kind and gives me goosebumps!

I have just finished Fedrick Douglass' Story in college, and right after seeing this music video, it's so inspiring and so beautiful. I genuinely believe that black culture is getting out of context by the media. It is great to see an artist like D Smoke to express Black history by showing historical concepts. Unfortunately, we don't see this in our children's school. For him, express it this way can make such a significant impact on our youth.
