[@theflatbunny8322]

Not as good as wretchs to me for listenability (yeah I made that word up) but I think that's because wretch had a more recognisable back track that fit his bars better. But if we're going of pure lyrics, Akala blows everyone outta the water.

Tom Jameson PT he's just in a league of his own, in my books one of the greatest of all time, but it's so sad just how massively his genius is slept on in today's rap scene, and that's because his message is just too conscious and deep for the average rap fan.

People used to refer to him as Ms Dynamite's brother. Lyrically they were and are still amazing. But Akala took his life by the throat and persued his dream to reach out to the world as a linguist, as a true generational hero. A role model. He will be immortalised through history. He's done and is doing too much for society already! Watch him on question time, destroying politicians. An honest and true genius. Respect

Understand back catalogue or are you green, seen? Means that my kids have a pension I ain’t got kids just thought I would mention See my intention, mangle a mention Murder a syllable and strangle a sentence Stand to attention, all of your henchmen Still couldn’t bench him, cause he’s too heavyweight brethren Like old school jungle selection, come through humble a veteran Ten years since the first album Ten years no daytime radio Ten years still touring that's real supporters We all know why they don’t play me though I’m that rapper, rap about matters that actually matter Challenging power, what? Every single tour is ten percent more Now why do you think that happens? Content matters, albums matter Songs they matter, lyrics they matter Integrity matters, flows it matter It’s word to Skiba we deal with the matter No industry hype Just write what I like It’s the Steve Biko with a mic This iron mike, I am Mike wouldn't like[?] Cause a fight is a roll of the dice Like rolling on knives Organs openly sliced Cold, I told you the price Colder than ice, nah Colder than life Living in a warzone, hold my advice Take shortcuts, get cut short Long road hard road but more sure Road tour that I’m doing at the end of the year Should make all this clear Some only get visibility Some silly fool called me a failure I smiled to myself, these times I was on a plane to Australia Sold out shows on the other side of the globe But fools only know what’s in front of their nose So they stunt, pose but they can’t sell shows ‘Cause their music is poo and they got no flow, I know You might be astonished Dog shit cannot be polished No matter how you push it on the public, son You cannot make them love it, son You know how many rappers can pack out a venue at Addis Ababa Guess what?

Best rapper alive today

[@shiftinggears9896]

You can't argue with it... 500% the best fire in the booth! 500% the best lyrics I've ever heard... Don't even argue with it!! You're only trained to rate fake-ness! 😂 That last lyric was pure poetry!

[@rhysrichmond8349]

You can see he went into a completely different place while he was doing that poem man that was deep still one of the best fitb to this day

[@aprylvanryn5898]

This was 6 years ago? Holy. Definitely still relevant.

[@Djyoses]

Damn, that fire was hotter than the UK weather right now

[@MznDesigns]

Fuck dude i dunno quiet hot rn tbh, But fuck he went hard on this

[@adam73819]

Really? I feel cold

[@Divine009]

lol where are you Djyoses? bring some of that hot weather to west...i feel you tho but its a given, akala always goes in xD

[@AJ-nc4vr]

2 years later, and this is truer than ever :D

[@James-xj3tf]

Met him twice tonight... Such a cool and amazing guy

[@lambchop613]

This is sooo under-viewed. I feel like his lyrics are wasted on Charlie and the likes of him, but he deserves so much more attention

[@TemplarAnimated]

FITB is one of the best platforms, he just doesn't have the following. If he did, easy have the same views and Wretchs (Which was equally solid).

[@Urban_Paradise]

To be honest I never would have found him originally (being in NY) if it wasn't for FITB. I discover most grime and euro hip hop there. I agree though. The WORLD would be a much better place the day Akala was Michael Jackson famous.

[@resilienceofagypsy3998]

Templar Animated I love wretch but I wouldn’t say they’re equal. Akala is untouchable and doesn’t have the same following because he’s not commercial and won’t sell his soul. That’s why the ones who do follow and support him love him even more.

[@joshcook1244]

Ive always thought charlie was abit simple but i swear its an act, he wouldnt have had Akala on 4 times if he didnt know what he's hearing

[@chrisoakleyfx]

@@joshcook1244 Maybe not his usual thing, but then how many Akalas are there out there. Damn few. I think at the end Charlie is clearly moved by his words, he just doesn't have the vocabulary to articulate his thoughts. Don't need to be educated to appreciate a profound moment 🙂

This just adds wisdom to anyone who really listens. Fantastic, should be a scholar

[@LasVistas-i9k]

Every time I watch that piece at the end leaves me with a tear in my eye.
