The Importance of Masculinity & Intelligence | 19 Keys & Mike Rashid

[@peter_knowz_lifting]

27:13 Tough times create strong men. Strong men create easy times. Easy times create weak men. Weak men create tough times. Many will not understand, but you have to raise warriors.

[@MiddleBrother82]

These brothers are positive and intentional about their approach to elevating mindsets while countering generational stagnation…

[@benflynn1651]

Mike you nailed this podcast. It’s amazing the amount of influential men i’ve looked up to has narrowed down and you’ve been the most consistent one. I was raised by mom too. Rough upbringing. And I love what you said, you have the capacity of violence, but controlling. Most “men” aren’t peaceful. They’re harmless. That hit different 1000%

[@MikeRashidOfficial]

It’s real bro. And those of us who have that capacity (of violence) are obligated to keep it in check.

[@jmanbee1334]

The knowledge and inner standing. African kings. These are men to look up to

[@MikeRashidOfficial]

🙏🏾

[@healthyhim]

Yes and No

[@iamkron2631]

He's a king of his own thrown, if your really taking the message he's telling us to become a king of our own thrown and to not compare yourself to anyone but yourself. You can look up some one but never perceive another mans achievements as greater than your, you have to put all your focus on improving your self and becoming a king of your own thrown as well

[@Dickscipline]

Good intention but never look up to anyone cause you’ll miss who they actually are. They’re men who blood, hurt and go through the same you do. Make them your peers one day🙏🏾

This is one of the best cyphers ever between two black Gods, I always find myself tapping into this conversation. The wisdom is appreciated.

Man I can’t wait to have an intellectual conversation with these gentlemen.. Mike is really my mentor

[@MikeBarron1]

I'd love that to man!

[@AbdoulieJammeh17]

Finding Mike Rashid’s channel was one of the best things that’s happened to me this year. Came for the boxing/fitness content stayed for the knowledge 💯

[@jermainedickerson8322]

Love it!!! My former MMA coach would always say the same thing. Most men aren't peaceful they're harmless. I def believe all men "should" have a comfortable relationship with violence. Men are protectors, how can you protect others if you can't protect yourself? People look at me crazy when I let them know the training I do and my boys will do. If you stay ready you don't have to get ready!

thank you for having the great brotha Keys back on the channel... haven’t even started the video & already know it’s about to shift my Paradigm

[@Natureboypkr2]

Being in combat definitely taps into mental toughness, discipline, and physical prowess. I was a JTAC for 8 years and many of the situations I’ve been in challenged me on those three points I’ve previously mentioned.

Mike. You spoke about lies being just like filth leaving the mouth which truly disgusted me because it hit home. Thank you brother for these words of wisdom.

[@sladedamonsta1]

I literally never comment of even watch entire videos but I found Mike about 3 months ago and been finding more and more impressive content every time…I’m a fan and NEVER use that word lightly. This was the most entertaining and informational podcast I’ve ever watched. The part about your son being clever and smart, but needed to get punched stuck with me because my son is 8 yrs old and I immediately laughed because I think the same way about him LOL. much love to both of you Men. 💎

For real this was the realest conversation I have ever heard. Keep up the good work my brothers.

[@Will-sv2hl]

your perspective on the red pill and fresh and fit was spot on! I thought the exact same thing, so when you started talking about it I was like... I wonder where he's gonna go with this. This is my first time viewing your content. Good stuff. Whole lotta gems, you guys got good heads on your shoulders. Your perspective is so much more healthy and elevated.

[@zugootsprevasio6595]

Mike you brought up a major point about necessary violence. It’s so many grown males who are good on paper(degree, career etc) but lack so many essential skills of manhood. Know how to fight is a necessity because you never know what life may put you in. Whether win or lose doesn’t matter but it’s very crucial to stand 10 toes down at all times because your reputation follows you. I’ve seen guys get punked & slapped around in front of their girl because they have reputations for being 🐱. Salute

[@darkgoddess8443]

Thank you Mike Rashid for teaching me to mind my business. Supported you to no avail. Never again will I throw pearls to swine. Hope that you find peace. ✌🏾 Take care.

[@RighteousFollwer]

[@TLikeYea]

This was some good stuff. I watch podcast and talks of this nature everyday and this is definitely one of the best. Y’all boys so down to earth with it and I feel that’s what it takes for a lot of people to understand these things

[@augustrashaad9360]

44:03 to 50:04 when they discuss Kevin Samuels. They are spot on. Mike is the “high value Alpha male” most red pill guys want to be. We, men, are weak when we lean on hating women to improve our value. No longer can we ask women to lower their standards. We must raise ourselves to be the standard. These incels are too much. You guys need to live life and improve yourself. Let’s be masculine men who build muscles, accumulate money, make a valuable impact, and protect those weaker than ourselves.

[@ikep52923]

Great convo. You understand me.

[@Kobby405]

It is easier to conquer a people with a "leader" than a people with a leadership. When you cut of the head of the snake, the body becomes irrelevant but when you cut of the head of a "hydra", 3 more heads take its place. You need a strong leadership with a vision/mission that everyone buys into not a leader. That's how dynasties and empires are built.

[@soulfulcrown]

Really great content. Certainly disagree with most, if not all of your comments/conversation surrounding Kevin Samuels. Since this was back in August 2021, and Brother 19 Keys confirmed that he never watched any videos, I'll chalk it up to this being said at a time when people commented on his videos based on heresay, and not actually seeing his transition and understanding the message. With that said, solid content.

[@stevestylezradio]

no male role model in my life, I like your videos, Mike. I just shut up and grind it out. You both are positive males.

[@patrickjlouis6651]

From the few times I have watched Kevin Samuels, he holds both man and woman accountable, With that said you two brothers are dropping jewels and it's much appreciated.

Kevin Samuels is only the beginning. His influence will produce others.

[@MikeRashidOfficial]

It already has.

[@edwinvickers143AK]

@@MikeRashidOfficial have you ever watched Kevin’s content where he consults men? He needs to bring that back because it was priceless

[@mr.dccomics9018]

@@edwinvickers143AK that's the thing, when Kevin Samuels channel was about helping men nobody paid attention to him or supported him. Now that he's telling women the truth about why they are not winning with the man they want, its insulting. Women don't respect nice guys. They just don't. If Kevin Samuels gave women what they want by being all nice and soft on them again they wouldn't take him seriously. That's just like saying you want to go to the army to learn how to be a soilder but you want your Drill Sargent to go easy on you. Most people need hard discipline to change. Especially women because they been spoiled and protected their whole lives without anybody giving them a serious wake up call.

[@isaiahb.7956]

@@mr.dccomics9018 Agreed. I know people don’t like the tone and word choice of KS but the content of conversations must not go over looked. Black men definitely have A LOT of issues, but black women do too. The problem is people are used to hearing only black men get discussed, not BW.

[@macavelli8905]

This is a excellent video and conversation by men who can have a good conversation without challenging one another based on ego. On point about the false alarm about the great women vs men , it's created by the people who have tapped into a small group of women and men but just like everything else only cater to a segment.

[@amineech-cherif2386]

What are you talking about, tneir assement of Kevin Samuels is purely an ego based one.

[@macavelli8905]

@@amineech-cherif2386 and you think KS is not operating from the ego? The psychology of a argument is based on the idea that you have a better assessment,when you move the argument to a dress size and make that the focal point, you have no legitimate argument any longer. Let's go back one more step KS state all the time that women in their 20s are immature and unsure of what they want, yet he also says he only dates women in their 20s. I'm not knocking him he has a space and that's fine but to proclaim liberty based on duality of that savior well that's simply not possible. Your opinion is respected...

[@amineech-cherif2386]

@@macavelli8905 he never said that women in the 20s are immature I watched many of his videos and never heard him saying that. However, women who are in their 20s and grew up with no guidance are immature. Regarding the dress size, women have no issue degrading a man for his height and looks, in fact just do a quick search on KZbin and you will find women degrading men all the times. KS just reverses their own demeanor and ask them the same. Women have been told that they are perfect, in fact even saying to a woman you need to lose weight is called misogynistic. And I was utterly disgusted by the guy with the white shirt when he starts praising Jordan Peterson, who probably thinks black people are inferior to him because he’s white, instead of lifting another brother who is wanting to build better stronger communities.

[@macavelli8905]

@@amineech-cherif2386 your point well taken I have no problem with either side,as for the talking down men that's a small segment it only appears larger when you take that information in consistently. And finally on women in their 20s KS has answered the same way every time a woman ask or reference to it ,he usually says he only dates younger women under 30 so within that are immature women,but I get that the opinion is KS would never be interested in such women? You and I have no debate your opinion is respected in that you are able to disagree without it being a problem. One very real aspect of the men raised by single moms will be there feminine energy being expressed to a larger degree than the masculine energy first of a man raised with a father/strong male figure the world has changed and that more than anything else is what's being played out daily.

[@Source4Trainers]

Truth is truth Mike. Men and women usually need a harsh kick in the ass at some point. What's the problem with a black man in his 50s being that for people? You don't have to have a fitting background or energy to speak the truth; you just need a platform and message. You're background isn't perfect but I listen because your message helps and has good intent. Kevin's message does the same. Everybody can't focus on everything. He's not wrong that fat argumentative unrealistic women and short broke indecisive men will struggle to marry. You're not wrong that character and experience breeds confidence and success. Just 2 different focal points helping all of us viewers. Thanks for listening bro

Man…..I needed every bit of this video

[@dancerdancer313]

Such a phenomenal episode gentlemen! 🔥 I usually cringe at KZbin vids of men talking about 'masculinity' (and related topics) because it's usually some ridiculous disjointed shit that gives men even more terrible information and it makes women feel bad. It's like lost, messed up/men giving bad info to more lost/messed up men. It's truly the blind leading the blind. But, Mike I have been following you since 2017 on IG and your YT channel (as in actually subscribed to your YT and following your IG - not just fake following you lmao) and you have been consistent with the type of content you put out. You have done vids before guiding men on how to develop themselves outside of fitness, as you mentioned in this video. Also, you just have other stellar content like Mental Jewels, you talk about mental toughness, book suggestions, overall health, and so much more. It's the exact reason I follow you. You have more than just physical muscle to offer your community. A lot of influencers period, don't. You have well rounded substance. I hope this video impacts a lot of men for the better. Much love and light! ✌🏽💖✨
