He is such a beautiful black man (and I’m not just speaking on his looks). His mind, his spirit, his heart & his heart (definitely meant that two different ways) far exceed any worldly success he’s accomplished thus far. Eat Smoke, take your time...it’s a long dinner. ♥️

[@ARileysPaintings]

I totally agree.

[@mikedee936]

The fact I Cops is pulling up showing my high school teacher Mr.Farris(D Smoke) respect is amazing. His message is showing through power and love 💯

[@cbwavy]

What class did he teach?

[@Lopezlopezzac]

You’re so humble and that’s what people love about you!!!!

[@baked.almond4037]

Ayyyyyyyyyy if there were more teachers that had the same passion as D’Smoke, more kids would be eager to attend school.

[@chiraq_killdanois3639]

There are but it doesn't seem like it cause, It's just the fact that the kids act* up because of there situation at home or cause the parents not doing good enough of a job

[@korysanders2373]

I’m pretty sure d smoke had kids like that in his class and they still love em

[@Rebecca57097ssss]

I am a teacher and all the comments under this thread are valid. 🎯

[@tiffanywatson9418]

[@chrispbacon1167]

I was expecting him to glorify the hood like everybody else that show they hood but instead he showed school and local businesses that’s pure empowerment

[@mizcooleyfbt2601]

He's a different breed... everything he promotes is elevated.

[@Ladycece]

I love d smoke he has this very high loving spirit about him it warms my heart ❤️

[@Acquanett]

I love how you carry and present yourself D Smoke. Love the energy you possess and project. Love the pride you have for family and the city of Inglewood. I pray for your continued success.

[@EasyParkourS]

D Smoke is gon be legendary just like Nipsey was. The whole hood loves him.

[@doc1823]

No

[@juniorbanuelos6995]

Thats right D Smoke , its very rare to see black rapper being so close to the latino community especially in LA where gangs are real as fuck my boy, hey man props up to real rappers who really are from the hood and stay loyal to it, that shit is humble as fuck. Keep doing what your doing.

[@mrs.demetrialewis2730]

This man has such a beautiful spirit I wish him all love and happiness

[@cbwavy]

He dropped a great piece of advice when it comes to education. Talk to your teacher or professor at the beginning of the year about your goals. If you tell your teacher that you want an A, then they will help you do it.

[@Dat621]

This comment is underrated

[@deidraberry3639]

Love that he’s not flashy and very humble. Doing great things

[@TrapHippy]

Man I been hearing about D smoke for a while now but I’m just starting to listen to his music & watch his videos which are like short films. Ima fan man. He’s dope. from hearing him speak & tell his story I can tell he has great energy & deserves the recognition he’s getting.

[@anthonymartinez1645]

Same here bro, he's as solid as they come fr, big fan right here

[@rellptp]

Give yourself time but act as if u don’t have time, You’ll get there. ~D Smoke, 2020

[@kmarieking12]

His love for his community, his passion and his wisdom is so beautiful 💕

[@SSJQ127]

I like how he gets so much love and respect in his hood but he still needs to be careful 👌🏾🙏🏾❤

[@conspiracyortiz1660]

No matter what black, brown, Asian . If we developed this mind set in our community's we would be so much better. It's all about respect and love for one another. Having a different mind set and views. Is power within its self. Much love to this man. One Love✊. We must put away that old mind set there is nothing wrong with loving one another. This is the way we will over come many challenges in our community's and heal our community's....

[@cookietwo5991]

He gives off good vibes 💯

[@gabbirising4680]

Dee Lewis so down to earth 🌍 😎

[@travelingjohn69]

God do not let the streets take him. Keep him alive. He reminds me so much of Nipsey.

[@ShaShaLuva414]

Nip didn’t have the Family and Spiritual concept as a child like this Brutha. His Mom, who is a Beautiful, Spiritual and Talented Woman mold her Babies and kept them out of that nonsense. Nip wasn’t Street but that’s what he learn and grew to know Why? Mom didn’t involve herself in her Kids life on a positive level, Grandma tried. How I know 😊 I watch both of these young man grow. I know his Fam and I know Nip Fam. One ☝🏽 Love ❤️

[@r.e.a.lbrand48214]

He made “taking a fade” sound peaceful and delightful!! Lol 😂 salute to you my brother!!! Stay positive and much success ✊🏾

[@ARileysPaintings]

Man, that Rally's has been there a long time. That use to be one of my spots.

[@michaeljimerson9021]

I like homies pov, he ain't looking for it, but ain't turning nothing down, just want the same respect he gives. 💯

[@l.patrice7599]

Loved this! His spirit, just permeates the power of positivity while showing where he from. I’ve loved watching his videos, listening to his music and learning about his upbringing. I’m definitely a D Smoke fan...keep it up.

[@lisaantley1349]

D. Smoke, I absolutely love your music and who you are! I can’t wait to see you in my city- Nashville, TN! 😉

[@familyjones5151]

[@kccolossal3439]

[@susiesmith8469]

This man is a widower of wisdom and fatherhood..he represents the essence of a black man some don't want to see coming.

[@agthaog1986]

[@killahgruvz]

This brother's light and future is so BRIGHT. Proud of this dude. In other news, I pray that my lil bros can learn and/or be inspired to put this bull$#!+ to the side. Checkin each other over colors... or tatts is ridiculous. Its wayy too late in the game for that dumb $#!+. We should've been runnin this country decades ago. Anyway...
