[@Ghostface2point0]

It's sooooo not that serious guys. The "water" is metaphorical. It means knowledge. Knowledge is power. But at the same time, too much of anything is bad for you. If you wanna use boxing as an analogy, you need water. You need hydration. But you deteriorate with too much water. It's about finding the balance to make it through life👌🏿

[@1996dearmond]

nah if yall think about it this is flint Michigan where the water is polluted people literally make business selling water wake tf up yall

[@atusmith915]

In his songs mick always says he does it for the free so therfore I think in this video the water is a representation of his music and the knowledge it contains. The boxer and his partners can be seen as the more mainstream rappers who also spit knowledge but their main focus is still the almighty dollar. The lil kids are a representation of mick, who provides the same water(music/knowledge) which was being sold by others free of cost. The amount of water being given is also important since the ones who are making money off of their water (mainstream rappers) are dishing out a cup of water for $5 each, while the kids(Mick Jenkins) hand out a whole bottle free of charge . I don't usually comment on youtube videos but I appreciate Mick Jenkins and his music so much. His music reminds me that there is still hope for the future.

[@Zekzus]

Atu Smith thank you

[@SEECH7cornishgrimemovement]

what does the massive downpour of rain represent is that the sea of music you have too sift through just too find that little bottle of music with knowledge in it

[@francisformlyknownasc.i.a2128]

Atu Smith you gotta have a balance honestly. The main stream is needed to define the underground. No mainstream no underground. It would be weird level where anybody can make it and we dont need everyone to make music. Cause life is about frequency the more good you put out those that appreciate will follow

[@NJASZN]

Every time I listen to Mick Jenkins music I drink water. I'm not even being sarcastic right now but if that was his intention then it worked. I would thoroughly enjoy his music and thoroughly enjoy reminding myself that I need to stay hydrated. I'm dead serious. I think it's pretty cool that he has that influence.

[@Josstick]

maybe you get thirsty hearing him talking about water, but I think he really wants you to pick up the Bible. ..

[@BravadoLuciano]

+KoobaTroopa & thernztrom that European doctrine is the last thing he wanted you to pick up. he wanted u to drink the truth of knowledge and forever be hydrated.

[@user-hx9jw2yh7xs]

Masterpiece!!!

[@issackcintron8452]

Best Music Video in a long time. This video represents the current state of the Rap/Hip-Hop game, and how some rappers supply the product just for their own personal gain, while others do it so everyone else can have something to vibe with and enjoy. Water represents purity. The water that the dudes are selling is "pure" but notice how stingy they are about distributing it and how much they charge for just a half a cup of water. But the boys take it back to the crib, take their time bottling it up so they can give it back to the people, it's only then that the water is officially pure. Once they give it back to a few people, the rain comes, and everyone and get themselves, truly pure water. Because of that, the dudes who were selling it were essentially put out of business and into a state of irrelevance. That's symbolism. In an essence: Mick is the rapper, delivering purity, honesty and powerful lyrics. Notice that his mixtape "The Water[s]" was/is available for free. Mick was more about getting the message out, and less about getting some profit in return. Whereas most of the mainstream rappers out right now lack a message yet they don't care because they're all about the profit. Once enough people "drink more water" (the water Mick is providing) the rains will come and EVERYONE can get his purity.

I bet you feel special? fuck outta here

[@Obeymyswag01]

Joshua BasedGod He's been rapping for a while, just because he hasn't made it doesn't mean people aren't late. He's starting to gain recognition. Thats what I mean. IF you're on him now. You're still late. Aint like he just started rapping 3 months ago.

[@madSHKRILLZerrrrt]

Yeah it's late but still earlier than most people that will eventually discover him...Like I was still late on Kendrick even though people who will claim they were early on him from the east coast didn't hear his name until section 80 started getting a buzz and I had been listening to him and black hippy when he was K Dot (LA roommate for the win). But either way it's better late than never..can't blame people. I myself am pissed I didn't discover Mick until the Jazz video dropped but grateful i found him before most people have/will nonetheless
