Man DEE-1 always comes with the truth. Truly blessed

[@bruce5834]

20:33 I really hate when people do what Jeff is about to do. I'm a Marine, combat veteran, and suffer from PTSD also and I took absolutely no offense to what Dee-1 said about being a real life soldier. Clearly he was not claiming to be a part of the US military.

[@TheReese989]

His message is something god given foreal. This guy has that IT factor

[@ryanlinkous8651]

Reese NineEightNine you mean that sh(it) factor? Dude sucks balls

[@mykindofmind]

I love him! I am so grateful that God has opened the doors for him! I been waiting, Now play him on the radio!!!!! Right after Kendrick

[@yanabear1991]

Met Dee-1 a few times, he is genuinely like this. His energy is amazing!! I just know the concerts for this album is gonna be lit

[@TBrown-lh2xw]

" I wanna start off by sayin God Is Great " gangsta - respect cuz // sway still 1 of the realist host if not THE realist period

[@GoogleAccount00]

T Brown 1980 that intro was so wack

[@TBrown-lh2xw]

Jello K. Wrong cuz - clearly u on the othr side so u wldnt knw why he real neway, if it aint in u 1st - u ain't gone find it

[@Kevin-we4xd]

Dee-1 …I promise to buy your album. You have the energy , the light, and your “sling shot”. Show these other rappers that it's possible to rap, and get your message across with great energy and not curse. You didn’t curse ONCE!!!!!! IT WAS A PLEASURE TO HEAR YOU

[@ZakariyaBrunotte]

My guy was ready. "When Sway and Dee-1 get together, its magic." Always got love for Dee-1

[@waynelevyjazz]

I'm a 58 years old jazz musician and this young man Dee-1 had me in tears!!!!!! The best inspiration artist I have heard in a longtime. His message is crystal clear!!!!!!!!

[@janellegrace5815]

Love him, I pray he does not waiver, he is God sent.

If he and *OTHERS* got offended by Dee1 saying he's a *SOLDIER* THENNN why *TF* didn't they hit up " *SOULJA* *BOY* and 98.99% of the other rappers that associated themselves with the word *SOLDIER* ! ! ! ! That soldier needs to hold this " *L* "right quick & fight ANYONE who tries to take it from him . . . .

[@necessitybanger]

Jarod Moodley right even Destiny's Child have a whole record called Soldier😂🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

[@HugoHernandez-qf4gd]

I Know Some People Are Idiots And Take Things Way Too Literal

[@TheCoachRC]

Let's not forget the rappers who run around dressing up like soldiers in the Army.

[@BluDrop5]

Why he ain't hit up Cash Money, Hot Boyz, and Lil'Wayne for being soldiers?

[@robyngreen1561]

I am so in love with Dee-1 love for Him. Such a blessing, thank you!

[@305richiep]

Thank you Dee1!

[@urbannerd]

Dog I'm a Vet... Marine Corps Sgt.. and I in no way did Dee-1's soldier reference bother me.. That caller was being a bit sensitive if you ask me.. (But hes in the Army.. That word "soldier" is something they use... Marines dont..So maybe thats why it didnt bug me...

[@FreeBayArea]

Dee 1. Stay doing what you do

[@anheiroflove]

I remember this was the first time I got exposed to Dee1 and years later to see how God has elevated and used him is a blessing to see. Much love to David! HalleluYAH!

[@sparkleinyoureyes8259]

A Real message with a real purpose... Dee 1 !! 👏👏👏

[@MATZ302]

deep stuff... i love it

[@bengardner136]

Love the message this brotha provides and using this platform (slingshot) to reach all people of the world. I found my slingshot years ago myself because to me there is nothing like making music that feed a need and brings emotion to the people. Problem for me is what he spoke about using your slingshot properly. As a R&B artist I felt something missing because my faith is building more in more in Christ as I study the true word more and more and I feel God convicting me to stop making the love making music I was making and to bring more substance and open up more. I say all of this to say thank you brotha Dee1 for being real and your message as it reached out to and into my soul as another confirmation from God of what I need to do with my music. With patience and God directing my slingshot I hope to reach people the way you have and please God through using my slingshot to glorify him as it was meant to be.

[@tea4christ19]

Powerful

[@LenaBOOMBeana]

[@rudeboyjas-o6623]

Ask New Orleans bout The Goode. A hood where I grew up also know as a million dolllar section just as bad/ruff as any project

[@lovegod84jesus80]

Rudeboy Jas-o Dang, I’ll be praying for that area! I grew up in the hood in San Diego, yes there’s a hood there folks! lol but it ain’t no joke being in the hood and losing friends monthly and trying to rationalize and deal with that on top of the fact the streets try to bring you bro that mess. Many won’t understand the hood and how it can destroy a young person. Pray for the hood and if you got sense and you love in the hood spit knowledge to them young cats cause most of them ain’t even got a father figure or mother that loved them. It’s a sad place and we gotta do better and those who are given much are required to do much so don’t fear but be real, relevant, and transparent to these folks to keep them out of gangs and drug dealing and street violence! Godbless
