@@RanMaru144 Because pain is how we learn from our mistakes and pain shows us how strong we truly are. Pain is a guaranteed and necessary part of everyone's ife. If you overcome the pain that held you back then you can do anything. So in other words pain is a blessing because it allows you to learn and hopefully grow into a better person.

This album came out when I was 16, I wasn't mature enough to digest a lot of the lyrical content. Im 20 now and coming back to 4:44 with a slightly more elevated perspective- this is the first time I feel like I truly SEE what is being presented. I know Im still young but I wonder what it will feel like in just 10 more years, savoring moments like this. This story is timeless, this music is timeless. Thank you.

Lechiffresix six I agree 100% with you. A lot of people like to agree with today's homosexuality. Mind you I have nothing against it. But those same people are only agreeing on it because its trendy and its more acceptable nowadays. 20 years ago it would have been more ballsy. Especially in the hip hop community.

Living in the shadow, can you imagine what kind of life it is to live? In the shadows people see you as happy and free, because that's what you want them to see. Living two lives, happy but not free. You live in the shadows for fear of someone hurting your family or the person you love. The world is changing and it's time to be free. But you live with the fear of just being me. Living in the shadow feels like the safe place to be. No harm for them, no harm for me. But life is short and it's time to be free. Love who you love because life isn't guaranteed. *SMILE* -Gloria Carter

As for Mrs. Carter thanks for sharing or allowing your son to share your truth, everyone deserves some time to SMILE...to be a part of something that's good and brings joy.

Zack Werner I think that was his worst album tbh. TPAB, Good kid m.a.a.d city and Section.80 were all better musically. But thats just my opinion. Its hard for me to back and listen to DAMN without skipping most of the songs.

No father, let me start over, no, godly father wants his daughter to ever have to go through this. The devil is always busy trying to destroy homes. This is a message to all of the godly women out there remember surrender to Jesus and he will see you through . All he ask of you is to keep the faith and believe in him, and again, he will see you through.

This has truly touched my heart. I admire the woman your mom is, even if i don't know her whole history. It takes courage to come out, specially in black community were the rate of homophobia and sexism/misogyny/feminicide is so high. This video is art. I'm really glad you worked with such an awesome team to bring this project to life.

William Greene black trans women are far and away the most at risk group in the trans community for assault and murder, and that’s largely due to the fact that a lot of black People are transphobic as hell. I’m assuming you’re not LGBT because, no exaggeration, I’ve never heard a gay or trans person of color say that the black community is LGBT-friendly. It is absolutely a problem. It’s also a problem in white conservative communities. The common denominator is almost always religion. The more religious a demographic is, the more homophobic the group tends to be. Black communities that are particularly religious end up being particularly homophobic

William Greene and honestly, rap music is a pretty decent indication of values in some black communities, so it’s really not that crazy to use homophobia in rap as an example of homophobia in the black community
