NOT SO DAILY VLOG: FRIENDS WHO BEEF

[@DavidSoComedy]

So I've been doing life vlogs off and on for a while now and you guys have been requesting more. All I know is that from here on out, when you see these vlogs it' real. I focus so much on quality you don't really get content but from here on You get to see everything. A lot of the time you see all the smiles but nothing else. I'm going to be more open with my shit whether it's good or bad. just the real me. enjoy the life vlogs :)

[@cesarcastaneda5802]

Hey David big fan man keep on doing what you do man.

[@xeratS03]

didn't expect you to upload today xD

[@nessadawn4697]

:) Love the videos dude keep it up

[@SlayerASH3]

You the bomb dot com! 💣💣💣 No matter what you do, I know you give it your 100% 😎👌🏻 you are so motivational!

[@leanvo123]

You do you. New media, old media, whatever your platform is, your fans will support you. Honestly, it'll be dope to see you on movies/tv. But KZbin will always be, for me, will always be where I found the greatest comedian of all time.

[@nachowarrior1]

I feel like Justin was just being real and David was like getting defensive and offended.

[@keisimmons]

+nachowarrior1 at the same time tho I feel like thats a natural reaction that most people would give, but i think that over time he will think about it and improve.

[@nachowarrior1]

epickei I totally agree, I'm sure the meeting in the long run will help and that David is naturally like any person reacting.

[@bloodking35]

+nachowarrior1 he is really pissed that Justin belittled his shows that he does

[@keisimmons]

justin even said it was a good conversation on his channel

[@LHAClothing]

+Lidiot Lee I think he got pissed right from the start. when justin asked ," did they book you from youtube or your stand-up?" and for sure its youtube. he hasn't done real stand-up in a long time. He has to skills,but he didn't have to take that question so hard.

[@babayaga960]

he might piss you off dude, but he made you think about what you really want to do and you reestablished your position and confirmed what direction youre headed in. it mightve not been his intention to do so, but when someone comes at you like that, its how i interpret it, and it hasn't done me wrong so far

[@lindalemoni5428]

+Mowgli's Cousin smart way to deal with that

[@ddalgeexD]

this

[@msgigglesbaby]

Exactly, it might of pissed him off but Justin was saying it out of love. The delivery wasnt "on point" but the message stook. What are friends if they dont challenge you to do better.

[@mawhulk]

then david just attacked his work out of spite. bad move

[@SSSandhu13]

Honestly David, I feel Justin was just trying to give you advice and you honestly threw shade at Justin, not the reverse.

[@marshmallow1187]

yaaaaaas, I think David has his own perspectives and if he just put that off to the side, then he would've understood what Justin was tryna say

[@gorillagetsbigger]

+Wynne Lee I feel like this video wasnt for people to choose sides, they're both friends. they both dont care about what we have to say about the other person. He is saying "HE HAS THE BEST INTENTIONS, WE BEEN FRIENDS FOR 4-5 YEARS" They probably been in arguments before by how he knows him and they're still friends.

[@SSSandhu13]

Anaisel Ramos Yeah but there's only so much time and confrontations before two friends before they break off their friendship. Sometimes you have to do a give and take and try to understand the other. Not get butthurt over something they might say.

[@gorillagetsbigger]

I understand that. I hear you out but I feel like this isnt a big explosion or anything, you know. I understand why David got defensive though. He was feeling like Justin was saying he wastes bis time on JK news and it's something he invests time in and believes. It's ok that Justin didnt get that so it's fine for David to stick up for it. At the end of the day Justin is just trying to help him out and tell him his insight but you know sometimes it can come off a bit mean. They dont agree but it's good to keep friends who think differently because you see more views that way

[@XLRBoss]

+SahijApple93 I believe David know what Justin trying to say, thats why he said what he said. Not only that Justin came off a bit.. forceful in my opionion.

[@pigeonwing9172]

Being blunt here but Justin wasn't trying to 'throw shade' at all. He was trying to steer you into taking action towards advancing your acting career by acknowledging the fact that you may have been 'slacking off' (which is a harsh phrase, as you've obviously being putting work into YT videos) on your acting career by falling back to KZbin. It's understandable therefore that'd you got defensive as you haven't been just sitting around doing jackshit, you've been with JKFilms, you've made short-films etc. But ultimately you haven't been going for your true passion as you told Justin, which is to be an actor in presumably Hollywood or mainstream films. Justin has absolutely no reason to diss you for doing YT and he, like you said, is a friend and has only the best intentions.

[@themeowadventure]

true and how much more can u go by just giving reactive comments to news on JKNews for real

[@random01759]

This 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@melissaroldan7242]

I like the way you handled this conversation, David. It's good to see two friends who have different ideas of success, peacefully discuss their differences.

[@thediplomic8661]

Yeah I was laughing cause I imagined if they didn't handle it as professional/adult/responsible like and how horrid it would've happened

[@bradcha5413]

+Melissa Roldan peacefully? no it wasn't David got mad and started cursing

[@SpektrikMusic]

+The Diplomic justins new vlog. They got CRAZY lol

[@thediplomic8661]

+Spektrik what's his channrl

[@SpektrikMusic]

+The Diplomic Justin Chon

[@ifeelikerain]

Justin definitely looked like he was asking questions and making comments to better you, give advice, and understand where you were coming from. It did not appear at all that he was throwing shade at you. It just appeared that you were getting offended at his questions.

[@lindalemoni5428]

+saem aneras really? cause to me personally it did seem like there was some kind of passive aggressive tone with Justin. so much so, that i stopped the video for a while to read some of the comments to see, if that is actually some kind of skit, just a serious one this time

[@aznmmv00]

+yellup44 I dont agree that Justin had the "I'm better than you" type of mentality although he couldve worded himself better. I think that he was trying to convey to David that if he wanted to grow his channel and focus more on acting, he should take a more business approach, similar to Justin or Gina Darling. And the way he should do that is focus more on connecting with other successful actors such as Justin. I agree with what one youtuber said in a different comment; I think David should spend less time on JKNews and spend a decent amount of time trying to brand himself as an actor if he is serious

[@LHAClothing]

+aznmmv00 I agree with you. David has a path in his mind that is different from what Justin was saying which caused a conflict. Sometimes people just gotta stop and listen, less talking , more listening, and figure it out with yourself, and maybe come back with a more clear explanation versus just trying to combat the advice. an advice is an advice. David is overthinking this whole thing. thinking Justin said things to put him down.

[@lillian6572]

+aznmmv00 But i feel that isn't what David wants, he likes KZbin and how he is his own manager producer etc. he stated that he had opportunities, but they fell through because he wasn't willing to give himself up to the networks. In my opinion Justin is pushing David into what he is doing, which is not the route David wants. He likes the freedom of this type of platform, and there is also the fact that he believes that KZbin is not a "real" job and that it is kinda a half ass type of business, which isn't true because we can see how much work David puts into his videos (i mean just look at the vlogs before he decided to change the format).

[@SpektrikMusic]

+Lillian David said youtube was just a stepping stone into traditional media. Being at justins position is where David wants to be.

[@chantellefaith7860]

I seriously loved this vlog, and not because of the beef in it, however because of the realness David exposed us to. I always sincerely respect David`s opinions and love his point of view on things

[@chantellefaith7860]

+Free Floating thank you :))

[@sjappiyah4071]

+Free Floating damn, I was gonna say that lol

[@diyarav]

Hahaha I could tell David was getting irritated during that conversation, he started talking hella fast xD

[@MrGumleHotShot]

+Diyara Veli I think it's because he knew what he wanted to say and he knew how big of an impact it would have because it made perfect sense. So while talking he got exicited knowing the end goal would leave his friend speechless for a second or two thinking about a good answer which he couldn't come up with.

[@LHAClothing]

+Thorben BAMF naww when people give you advice you gotta just listen. you don't talk. when you talk you give excuses and it just annoys people who give you advices

[@Talooka]

Lmao you could see it in his face when he was even looking at the dude while they were talking 😂😂😂😂😂

[@kevinm8409]

9:48

[@stephaniehu8489]

For real though, I felt like that guy was throwing some shade in a very condescending way. I don't know him, but that tone makes me feel like he thinks he has superior status: "if you want to stay with KZbin, that's cool...". Don't be belittling KZbin and this David's channel, man--I live by this channel.

[@75kie]

I still can't process a slim David in my mind 😂😭

[@Lalalalyssa]

me neither 😂😂

[@DavidSoComedy]

+Frankie Nguyen same here.

[@The0fficalSkrillex]

+DavidSoComedy Kpop star?

[@aidana3761]

with a six pack

[@Lalalalyssa]

+Frankie Nguyen you're so lucky 😭

[@jillchinnt]

Why do you talk shit about Justin to Khalif instead of talking to Justin himself and telling him how you feel and shit? I'm not trying to sound rude or anything but that bit threw me off (unless you were joking). I thought you were someone that would confront a person and talk to them about the problem but who am I. Edit: Yes I understand that you understand that he means well but I'm just curious

[@OhnoitLo]

I see what you're saying... but since David's changing the style of his blogs I feel like this is showing the realness of it. from his conversation with Justin he probably had time to think about it throughout the day and just having a conversation with khalif about it as some sort of closure or to hear his thoughts

[@39913]

I don't understand either. Why would he consider Justin his friend and mentor then? 😕

[@wampaisen]

+Jillian Chin Njet Thing coz friends talk and friends beef. at the end of the day they still friends despite a difference in opinion. although it is weird that hes making this public

[@FJaypewpew]

+Denio Stephney I echo this, wit the whole closure part but i feel as though David is, as with alot of people myself included, a verbal processor. Meaning you talk, as you speak you refine what you're really trying to say or how you're really feeling or thinking. Kinda like a self induced psychiatry session. It good that Khalif can stay somewhat neutral and bounce stuff back to david. Idk, when you let stuff fester in the brain you can blow it way out of proportions, whereas if you have someone to engage in conversation with you most of the time realise most of the time its all good.

[@qtunicorn2123]

+Jillian Chin Njet Thing Real or not, this vlog felt very passive-aggressive. It's as though he's trying to tell Justin he's offended in an indirect way. Also, it's possible to be 'real' and still professional, plenty of youtube vloggers don't use much fancy editing but still keep the details of the gossips/dirty laundry out of it.

[@HannyyD]

Justin Chon reminds me of KevJumba..... I miss Kev

[@lowkeysavv0219]

Ikr

[@davideosproduction749]

+Hanad A I think theyre making a movie togethere

[@CarlosSantana-ie1kt]

what happened to Kev jumba

[@blazethyrock]

+Carlos Santana he died off Ebola when he went to Africa

[@KewlDude123]

+Hanad A Woh, I used to watch him wayyyy back! What happened to him?

[@bumjanh8660]

ALSO , PLEASE INCLUDE KHALIF MORE IN THE VLOG(s) . He's literally so chill .

[@FastforceRs]

+Julie ANH Be sure to have a few bottles of water, cause you're thirsty as fuck.

[@bumjanh8660]

Kuroko i don't see how that makes me thirsty but o.k. :)

[@gregchan7976]

+Julie ANH he or she is thinking sexually

[@foreverumbrella5584]

LOL wth

[@bumjanh8660]

+Odd Child lol , idk how that comment is sexually in any way. I was just saying he should be in the vlogs more because his convos with david are intriguing to me. :)

[@canfunkthetrump3379]

I respect the way he told you straight how he was feeling rather than sugaring it over, it's clear he wants you to succeed and likes you a lot.

[@nathanvo7505]

All of you guys crying about 360fps but that doesn't matter. Whi cares if it's not the best quality I'm just here to hear David's insight and see his life.

[@nathanvo7505]

*360p

[@aidana3761]

I was wondering who would complain about 360 fps, that's amazing

[@vintageparisdollanna1131]

I agree with you 100%. I really don't give a Fuck about that honestly it could have the shittiest quality ever, I'm just here to listen ad enjoy it.

[@ST3V4N1111]

Damn bro i couldnt continue that conversation if i was david. Respect for keeping calm

[@chickennugget8967]

I feel like David was getting pissed tf off 💀💀💀

[@sammisketches4938]

same

[@karanespanol011]

No, it was a friend giving honest opinions n advice.. everyone needs a friend like that!

[@chickennugget8967]

karan patil ...did you watch it all

[@karanespanol011]

chicken nugget yeah i did watch it.. I commented before finishing though.. let's wait for the next video!

[@katesheafe]

Damn. This just got so deep. I personally like this content. ^^

[@youiloves1242]

same

[@XtinaLucia]

Unexpected... And I enjoyed it

[@iceage7734]

I have enough anxiety in my life right now 😂 I like David's comedy light hearted videos. But I can see how people would like these videos as well.

[@katesheafe]

Suzy Martinez Good point. ^^

[@XLRBoss]

+Kit Kat Nightcore Can we kiss?

[@ErikGiovani]

Don't burn bridges dude

[@2611Jackson]

Why

[@Grrrt]

+Jackson Mack really?

[@maxjackson.7533]

Some bridges are just a bumpy road to a better outcome.

[@gorillagetsbigger]

+Erik Giovani He didn't burn any bridges. They both posted this convo and Justin said he enjoyed the talk in his vlog it made them both think. They ended it saying they had a different view and it was fine. I'm pretty sure he got Justin to agree "is this ok if I vlog it ?" and he vlogged it as well. They know they mutually respect each other and all that in the beginning he said all these things about Justin before this footage. At the end of the day they're friends and this vlog was pretty real. Him and David have obviously disagreed before by the way they know each other.

[@ErikGiovani]

Anaisel Ramos okay good then

[@arex6111]

You know I actually loved this. This is a REAL conversion. Trying to bs around a person doesn't make you kind or thoughtful it makes you seem a bit cowardly. Yes, sometimes you need to hold back but sometimes people will be butt hurt about what you say, but that's okay, it means what you're saying is getting through to them. Going through life holding back doesn't progress anything forward sometimes you have to be straight up to make progress.

[@Masrex]

Don't be discouraged man, fitness isn't linear, there's always going to be plateus that you'll have to overcome

[@annalang7679]

Honestly the reason why I love your videos. THEY'RE REAL! The shade, the jokes, the struggles, everything.

[@ellebee2721]

I'm on a weight loss journey, too. It is frustrating when your doing all the right things and the numbers won't change! But i have seen concrete changes in my health with PCOS.

[@justinray6839]

That is the most real representation of true friendship. Being able to analyze yourselves, face to face, criticizing the very depth of your meaning in front of each other. Not mincing words but being truthful in a way that helps progress one from what is false and what is true. What one truly wants. Kudos to to you for that Conversation with Justin, David. You had some huevos putting that out here for everyone to see. However, it's like how they say, people accept honesty. And honesty works. That's why KZbin has grown as a platform as much as it has. I'm a subscriber who will stay for years to come, if this content continues the way you're letting it grow.

[@justingiehm5096]

I honestly respect both you and Justin as artists so much, and believe conversations like these are very healthy. Both of you have such different perspectives on the same "craft" that you have chosen, and since both of you are stubborn as Khalif mentions and very passionate with your art I'm not surprised that you couldn't exactly see eye to eye. With my experience as a dancer I know where both of you guys are coming from. I could tell that you considered Justins responses as jabs and that's definitely what they were, but I'm sure he was also coming at you as a friend trying to push his buddy into maybe going another way. Maybe he feels as if you're saying that you're at a point in your career where you feel stuck on a plateau and he wants to see you make not just steps but a jump onto the next layer of the mountain. And I understand where you're coming from when you say you are doing something to get where you want to be. Truthfully man you are, I look up to you so much because you always continue to motivate me and I think about the words you've told all of us in many videos all the time. at least you're putting out consistent content, and making sketches, and putting out your ideas to a judgmental world with a crowd of people bigger than I've ever had on my main channel. Its more than I can say I've done, but at the same time there is always the possibility to do more. Even for me, I've been in a movie, I've been asked to perform in the bay area, I'm part of a dance company that travels internationally, I've worked with a few of my biggest inspirations, but I still could be working out more and stretching and creating more pieces and trying to make more connections. I recently had to make one of the biggest decisions of my career and I've been depressed this whole week because of it, until finally my director really said something that inspired me to move forward with my life and stop moping. She told me to avoid linear thinking. Thinking about right, wrong, forward, backwards, good, bad is too much judgement on yourself. It's honestly up to you man, only you can tell yourself where you want to go and make yourself do it. Thank you for your incredible content man there is great wisdom in this video on both sides. Hopefully I'll get the chance to meet you some day.

[@ThereSheGoess]

Seriously David, your vlogs are the best ones I've seen. Your rich and real conversations with Justin and everyone else in your vlogs are so genuine and sometimes you don't see that on other vlogging videos. I really hope you end up finding what you're looking for and it takes time to plan everything and iron it out! Best of luck!!

[@NRLazy]

David. I don't know if you're going to read this but you and Justin are both right. Don't get mad at him for questioning your decision to put aside acting when you and he both know you'd kill it. You got a little defensive and that's natural but don't take his words as shade. He's pushing you to make a big decision and you don't know if you're ready and that's fine too. When you decide that you want to act and write you'll do it. That's all there is. You chose an easier path but you're very talented and would make an amazing actor and addition to Main stream media. When you feel ready you'll do it. Justin just wants to know why someone with so much talent hasn't done it already. I don't really like butting into someone else's business but neither of you are wrong but you aren't right either. He can't push too hard because it makes you second guess yourself shown as you may or may not have attacked him personally with the "Vlog" thing. But, you can't push him away looking for faults in him when all he wants is to see you as he knows you can be. much more successful than you are now although you've accomplished so much; he and everyone of you're subs knows you can do even more amazing things and just haven't done it yet.

[@angelicakim6730]

Khalif is honestly just ugh... so great. I mean... -great personality -great looks -healthy body -witty what could a girl possibly want more?!

[@Xena9002]

I really think Justin cares a lot about your career. I don't know him personally, but I feel like he's talking to you on how to improve your chance on 'making it' whatever that means and I guess his tone of how he said it kind if sounds belittling but I don't think he had any ill intention.

[@chunnlinn]

+Xena T Justin's a cool dude

[@nicoleb7196]

I love how blunt you are. Your channel takes work, don't let anyone talk down to you.

[@autumnraine3209]

I don't know if this is the right way to go with this video. You and Justin both made very good points, and it was nice to hear more about the professional side of things, but for me the video went down hill during your conversation with Khalif. When you talked about how you were helping him with his lines I got excited because I hoped you would talk about acting techniques or something of that sort. Instead, it turned into you talking about things that had to do with Jason which you could have told him to his face. If you didn't like way Jason was talking you should have just told him to be blunt about it. Instead, you were more defensive and redirected the conversation to his career and telling him what he hasn't done. I know you're trying to be more "real", but aren't you just throwing as much, if not more shade at him than he was at you over your career? For future reference, I think it's better to be outright with friends.

[@autumnraine3209]

You've obviously had a lot of experience with people and I'm sure you knew what kind of drama could be created while this was happening. Why do (or not do) something that you know could cause trouble? Sure it's normal for friends to get "salty", but wouldn't it have been better if you had been more open with him? You seemed to have no problem talking with Khalif about it; why wouldn't you have just told Justin to his face? If you think about it from his point of view, wouldn't you feel kind of crappy if you were trying to give someone advice and the entire time they weren't telling you what was actually on their mind? And only to find out that person aired out all their grievances about you and the conversation with the entire world before you heard about it.

[@autumnraine3209]

*I meant Justin not Jason. Sorry

[@atrium.]

David, I have so much respect for you - on various levels. You're such a good soul. You're creative; be it photography, singing, comedy or motivational speaking und uplifting. You are such a fair person with such good values (as much as we can see of your life). I really want to thank you for sharing all that you are. You have no idea how much you motivate me to do what I love, to believe in myself, as wel as in our society and community. Love listening to your storys and experiences, love seeing you glow while singing beautiful harmonies, push yourself to be better each day ( e.g. new years resolution, lifestyle change in terms of healthy lifestyle), sharing beautful angles and moment in genius shots, making everyone laugh... I love you so much for all that you are and wanted to share this with you. Love seeing you happy with Marielle :-) Keep up the good work! You are inspirational to so many people out there

[@MarsTheProgrammer]

Very stubborn of you David! Justin was trying to give you direct and helpful advice yet you pushed him away and threw it back in his face by trying to criticize him. Ironically, he took your criticism and accepted his own faults. I also have a friend (well a former friend) like this and every time he asked for advice on something, he would criticize it and anyone else trying to help him. What i found out was people like that only want "yes men" around them, no one every questioning them. Just like supreme leader kim jong un!

[@MarsTheProgrammer]

+Mars Castillon That being said, Justin is a bit of an ass.

[@NRLazy]

+Mars Castillon Not really an ass. He was honestly wanting to know why David hasn't done what he said he wants to do. I'm typically Justin in my friends conversations. We don't mean to come off as rude or insensitive. We see the talent and impact that our friends leave on people. If David wants to become an actor and bring his content to a more main stream audience. He can do it. We all know he can do it. It just doesn't make sense why he doesn't do it. Yes, JKnews is an excuse for him to reconsider his ambitions but David is talented and Justin sees it. He knows David can succeed and is wondering why he hasn't already. It's not that Justin's being an ass it's that David isn't using his potential to it's fullest and Justin isn't beating around the bush with the questions. Justin is a friend that David needs because David is stopping his own success and believe it or not If he just went ahead and did what he said he wants to do he'd be bigger than most.

[@MarsTheProgrammer]

+TheSuperSaiyanBoxLineThinker Yup, you're right. It was also uncalled for when David insinuated a challenge for a fight.

[@themeowadventure]

+TheSuperSaiyanBoxLineThinker i like this! david just wants people to "uh huh" his words. but Justin serves it straight up.

[@sydandtaytum]

+Mars Castillon agree with you. david is SO FAST to get defensive. this has been something i've witnessed more and more watching JKnews. he's SO FAST to go off-topic and talk about something when he doesnt have all the facts yet. it's really frustrating to watch.

[@wrenchguy2937]

Justin is the realest of the reals. This is the type of people you tell us to "fuck with" all the time david. So dont get mad at him for literally pushing you to do better. Justins a real pal

[@gigimar1273]

I'm in love with David's realness 😗😗

[@Tiredoflife137]

David this is the content you should honestly be posting, very inspirational and also a big eye opener for people who are interested in the business film! Thank you!

[@ChelsalinaVEVO]

David, when has a KZbin channel ever become a TV show? It's unheard of! Yes, JK news is a great channel that is successful but let's be real, who would watch it on TV? That show would be cancelled in less than a month. Not because the content is bad but because it's a different kind of entertainment that should stay on KZbin. You have to take into account that the age group of the viewers for both KZbin and TV is different as well. The viewers of KZbin mainly consists of teens and young adults, while the viewers of TV is mostly middle aged adults and elders. Also, KZbin is consisted of a person or group coming up with their own idea or concept for a channel and posting videos online, whereas TV shows have lots of production value into them and the ratings/viewings/profit it receives determines whether it will stay on TV or not. They're two totally different things and which ever path you want to choose is for you to decide, no one else. If going into acting for mainstream media is something you want to do then great! You obviously have a talent in acting and have a lot of experience in entertainment so I see no trouble in you finding a talent agent. However, acting is something that requires a lot of time, especially in mainstream media, and if that's something you don't have then it's best not to pursue it. Acting is a hard job and there's going to be so many rejections from auditions until you get a part. Happens to every single actor out there. Regardless of which route you choose we're always going to support you no matter what. Doesn't matter if that means slacking or less videos. If we can see you on the big screen, TV, film, or whatever doing what you love and always desired to do, that will make us happy for you. (:

[@janjanL]

Completely agree with you considering what happened with Grace and her late night show

[@tonyho94]

+Zoe K I agree with you 100%. Annoying orange went from KZbin to TV (Cartoon Network). Lasted 1.5 years (May 28, 2012- Mar 17, 2014). The chances of JK News becoming successful as a TV show is slim to none. Sorry but that's the sad reality. JK News no matter how big it becomes, won't get David to where he ultimately wants to be (a big time comedian/hollywood actor). This is no disrespect to JK News or David So as I'm a fan of them both, but the truth is as I stated before that JKNews will never be super huge. JK news is probably 8-15 years away from becoming where it really wants to be.

[@kodysloniker3288]

To be honest I truly like the way in which this vlog was put out. The in depth conversations that you have with your friends I look forward seeing your journey and the way you evolve since the first time I seen you and personally I love the stuff you produce it is never a dull moment watching you. I am always on the edge of my seat looking forward to what you are going to say. Thank you man and keep up the great work.

[@telilah85]

Seriously though David, you are very lucky to have friends who will be straight up and honest with you. Friends who can criticize and challenge you without sugar coating it. You must be grateful to have both Justin and Kaleef in your life. Sometimes facing the truth can hurt but once you step back you will see that true friends have your back. They challenge you because they see greatness there, and I think after you slept on it you must realize their good intentions.

[@imElainee]

Most raw vlog I've ever seen. It made me sit here and reflect about KZbin, media, and my life as well. Thanks David !!

[@supersamurai107]

LOL what i got out of that conversation with Justin and you. Everything he says is to better you and try to initiate to push you to do what you want which is be an actor. He may say stuff that is harsh and sounds rude to you but he is trying to push you to reach your goals. He has a personality too mind you, he is just like you. David you say he is lowkey your acting mentor, if a mentor isn't strong headed and harsh with his pupil how will the pupil learn and move forward to reach his goals. A mentor can't be soft on his pupil. He is a nice sweet guy he probably just wanted you to actually commit on that dream. If i was a mentor and my pupil hasn't done much towards reaching his goal i would be pushy and harp on him too to motivate him. Don't be angry at Justin, he's trying to help you out David.

[@jenikab95]

This was truly some kitchen-table talk. I felt like I was sitting right there with my closest friends and we were just having real talk. I don't think I've ever seen something quite like this on KZbin...and I have to say I kinda like it. It was so raw you kind of forget you're watching this on KZbin. As long as David is comfortable with the content he puts out I'm all for it because say what you will, it was just a real and honest video.

[@evango.8874]

Justin chon better not take David from us

[@AgentC6H12O6]

+Evan Govea i was thinking that too, the way he kept pushing David to try to do traditional Media :o like over and over again lol.

[@wowzapop828]

Ikr -_-

[@lelelemmelinx]

He can't MAKE David do anything. And especially David.

[@ChaseGamesify]

He can't make David move towards a decision. No one can make David move. mcd's 2 good

[@jiwoo3975]

this is how real friends that have genuine concern for each other talk about their passions.

[@wusta34]

lol you asked for advice but wouldn't listen and had a come back for everything justin was trying to say... he wasn't been condescending at all, seems like you just couldn't handle someone else telling you what you should be doing... why ask for advice from you so called "mentor" at all?

[@random01759]

Amen 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@DeTomboy4]

I did not at all see this video as two people going "at each other," but as two people talking about their goals and their opinions on each other's path of career. I found it very honest and real, they talked like friends who give advice. Thank you David I appreciate these kinds of videos, just know that whatever path you end up taking, I will stand by your decision.

[@nicholassauceem4284]

David can you make a video on your sneaker collection

[@TheVintageRomance]

What I got from Justin was sincere and honest. David, it sounds like he really wants to help you get into acting. Shots weren't fired, he was speaking the truth. You just got defensive because you think you've done a lot of work (which you have) but not in the acting world. Only in the youtube world. He's right when he said if acting is something you really want to do, then you'll MAKE time for it!

[@lilshortballa007]

Justin: "If you want to get from A to B.. why would you take a D-tour?" Me: YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BARZZZ

[@mylesmclean-os2yy]

Proud to be part of over one million subscribers of Divid So comedy. This is David's domain Justin, he'll improve on his craft and his later will be greater.

[@SuperLemurboy]

david or someone gotta sing over that instrumental he got playing in the background

[@matti900]

I think it's very nice to see that side of you. Not all the walking on the sunshine and stuff but life dilemma, business struggle. Real conversation.

[@MisoHungryForTravel]

Love this vlog. So deep and real.

[@ThermalPizza7]

This is a really dope vlog, I wish all vlogs were this personal. Other vloggers are mostly cowards and don't want to reveal this side of them but what they don't realize is by doing that they're distancing themselves from their audience. I appreciate this kind of content David and I respect you for being man enough to put this shit up.

[@jiroupersonifies3083]

I re-watched the conversation, and I actually didn't find anything Justin said to be offensive. I can see how someone might get offended, considering how passionate David is about his work, and he's the type of person who wants someone to be blunt with him-especially someone he admires and is seeking feedback from. Some people just don't like sugarcoated critiques. This is just a presumption, but I think what really started the tension was their differing methods of getting to the goal of the subject. David doesn't seem to desire just any opportunity to get where he wants to be- he wants to find THE opportunity that holds meaning and has multiple ways of advancing his skills and other opportunities. That's what I got out of the fact that he declined offers to be on television with the hope and/or expectation that he would advance to that platform with JK. It makes sense: they're his good friends, they're all passionate about some creative aspect (if not multiple) of filming, and they all learn and gain experience from and with each other. Justin, on the other hand, was trying to give David a clear-cut way to reach his goal, and since David had already received opportunities, Justin's advice didn't exactly help him and I'm guessing that's how he became frustrated. I would have asked David what it was about those opportunities that he turned down that made him decide not to do them, and perhaps what other qualities of his goal that he's looking for (such as not giving himself to a network), since he obviously isn't /just/ looking to be on television or in a movie. If he was, I assume he would have already been on it, based on these opportunities he mentioned.

[@rahul99katti]

David... Man you are the real deal and one of the most realistic people on KZbin. You are my inspiration for leading a life like you. Thanks for being on KZbin. #respect

[@Snipe01]

that shit got deep by the end of the conversation

[@TheTonehxD]

having some beef with friends is good give you perspective and keeps you humble and burst that bubble you keep yourself in

[@debb0r]

basically what justin is saying: what the hell you waiting for dude! you're ready; go get it! but take your time david, good things always come to good people.

[@deanyork7361]

David, I loved this style of vloging , where I really felt more close to you as a content creator and human being. This has been one of the most honest and insightful vlogs on KZbin because you talked your mind freely on a serious matter. KZbin vs Hollywood. Felt like you really opened on this one. Felt different and I like it.

[@mnemosynemelpomene8942]

Wow this was hard to watch but I like it. Its real issues and raw emotion.

[@mzwc2738]

Damn, I really loved watching this. So genuine and real and that's exactly why I'm subscribed to David.

[@lookingforsure]

david you're really defensive when talking to justin. he wasn't trying to insult your work and he knows you're grinding, he's just trying to give you tips and make you question your career so that you know whether or not you're going in the right direction. like when he said "they book you from youtube?" and you said "i still got the skills to do standup". he wasn't saying you didn't have the skills to to stand up, more than he was saying "you've got a real fan base from youtube" or when he said "there are step to take to get to traditional media" and you said "i'm not NOT DOING anything"... i don't know, that talk gave me a weird vibe.

[@lookingforsure]

+lookingforsure okay i watched the whole video and i loved that you said to khalif you didn't like the WAY justin talked. and i can see why. he's like the hipster friend who doesn't really say anything but still act like he said all the deep shit. I think justin feels empowered when all these youtubers (small or big) wants him as a mentor and hence he can get cocky. but he stills is a good person at heart and for real, david, if you talked about getting into acting but didn"t do it, then maybe you needed that wake up call. (and if he ignored khalif, maybe that's because he's tired of people who aren't his friends, hitting him up when they need something)

[@eduardodiaz914]

Idk how you're not bigger than a lot of youtubers that do pranks and shit. Your content is deep, can't wait to see you on the big screen someday man. Love your grind, you are an inspiration! God bless you and your fam man.

[@iamldot2]

Look I am a big fan of yours David, but Justin didn't do or say anything wrong. You had more excuses then a little bit. Practice what you preach, you can't do FFF videos telling others "If you want it then go get it" or "Get off of your ass and do it" but then get mad when your friend tells you the same. Grant it, I'm only speaking from the perspective that you've allowed to be seen but don't dish it out if you can't take it...Don't ruin a great friendship over pride...

[@ButIDontComplain]

I found this entire discussion and video intriguing.

[@christianbustamante4962]

Fruit is the key to weight loss,I lost over 40 pounds in about 2 months from eating almost exclusively fruit (once or twice a week I would eat something very unhealthy to help keep me from giving up) also I didn't workout once

[@tru2106]

what type's of fruits did you eat

[@fahimahmed8258]

+Corey Witherspoon .

[@christianbustamante4962]

+Corey Witherspoon whatever I was feeling,but the best kind are the ones the are made up of mostly water (oranges Apples peaches pineapples etc)

[@tru2106]

+Christian Bustamante ight thx man

[@jennlu9817]

Yeah but that's dieting. Sure you lose 40 pounds at first. But your supposed to keep the regiment. You can't just eat healthy for a year and stop. You'll gain the weight back and more, since your body was so used to eating a certain way.

[@3ssential]

I enjoy that your vlog is very raw and honest. Definitely gives a good perspective on the other side of the KZbin space, social media platforms and the challenges KZbin creators face.

[@Idontactuallyknowwhy]

I do feel Justin struck a nerve, because some of what he said was true. Sometimes I do feel(and I watch these guys almost everyday) JKN holds you back creatively as for your own channel, but that's how I feel and I can't say it's fact and it won't work out for you. But otherwise mad respect for such a conversation to be handled such a way and then to be uploaded. This is a true vlog. Felt the very essence of the awkwardness and I can see where the both of you come from. Just don't let this turn into some petty KZbin drama.

[@ChessBoxin]

I enjoyed this one a lot. Reminds me and my friends how we talk about why we choose to do things in life and how it seems to turn out a different way.

[@Calvviinn]

If I had this convo with someone. I'll order hella food and when I'm finished I would go use the bathroom and hop out the window and make them pay for the food

[@JudeTMi]

This life vlog was so good! Especially the conversation between Justin and David, with the two of them butting heads and friction with their friendship. And although friends they acknowledge they have differing opinions on a topic and it's liberating to see them work it out as opposed to tiptoeing around each other, it makes their relationship even more admirable as they can be honest with each other. There were many things going on it that conversation as their disagreement with each others career paths was rooted down to what each person constitutes as work. Both Justin and David want each other to apply themselves and explore a new aspect of media but the comfort of doing what they already know is too tempting and in some way, holds them back or as Justin says "Everyone has their kool-aid". I honestly wasn't intending on watching the whole video, "15 minutes? Are you serious? I could watch 3 buzzfeed videos and 2 talk show vids in that time, in this vacuous space of my subscription box" But I was glued to the screen, watched the whole 15 minutes, could probably re-watch. So thank you for uploading this quality content David!

Please make a video on the Fine Bros situation.

Don't worry David. We still love you for the cute fluffy sh*t you are. Lol jk jk we'll support you no matter what. Getting fit is INCREDIBLY hard (just ask my belly XD), but it does take a lot of patience. I know I'm not in the position to say this, but that's what most find and as well as myself true.

[@TheRealMe45]

I like these vlogs. Not only hanging out with your friends, but sharing what's going on in your mind. KZbin, friendships, etc. Other than bs every youtuber always says.

[@greynezz]

justin seems to have a bit of an arrogance to him when he speaks but he still seems like a good guy who just wants the best for others and to help out people who were in a similar situation to him! Do what makes you happy, don't feel like you have to get into traditional media because it's the "right way" to do writing/acting. It's only recently that youtube and internet based creators started getting taken more seriously.

[@WeaponOfMyDestructio]

A little beef is healthy if not your relationship got no meat.

[@fazalihtisham4421]

Lol bruh Justin talked some real shit and you got so defensive lmao

[@PsypherNewb]

I like how you guys don't pull punches. I think that's a main reason as to way people fail. People baby them. Loving the vlogs! Keep it up!

[@TheKillerCucumber]

I'm not gonna lie, watching this video made me ridiculously uncomfortable

[@starnight131]

You DO look better David! And I feel the same way with the numbers. Mine's not going down as fast as I hoped too. But someone told me something that really stuck to me: "Weight that you lose easily will come back as easily." Helped me get out of my head and just focus on increasing the weights I'm pushin! Let's keep doing what we're doing and the sweat we burning won't go to waste!

[@JamesRomiusBacolod]

Justin seemed like he was trying to help you bro. Hopefully you didn't lose him as a friend from this

[@searider559]

This is some real stuff man. It's not talking crap its analyzing what happens in his life. There's nothing being made up or hidden. I like this. 👍🏼

[@muddabooshit9186]

that conversation made me so uncomfortable

[@sighko05]

Great stuff David! I liked the realness of the video. Kinda felt as if we were a part of the group listening to both sides of the conversation.

[@aidanpage2458]

7:00 David, daily vlogs can be films. Utilize the film form, edit with a clear start, middle and end. Give motivation behind shots, do something unique with framing. Do something creative with the form instead of just holding the camera and shooting, then it can be a film. Case and point Casey Neistat.

[@SaltDLaw]

I like how the song Finally moving was playing when David was explaining how he was going from a creators platform to his goal of becoming an actor

[@DemonFox369]

Who is Justin? Yoda? "Do or do not. There is no try."

[@locosoko9408]

You can tell this is a real friendship because they're so open and honest to each other :3

[@Hooahnie]

I think Justin is just trying to share with David what he thinks is the right path for the goal of going into mainstream media from the perspective that worked for HIM. He constantly said that IF you are trying to get into more traditional media THEN you should do x,y,z. I'm sure he thinks doing those things is the best method because thats how he did it, where as David is trying to take a different path. Honestly just a difference of opinion, if you are talking to Justin for his thoughts then he gave them to you, and I think Justin has a point in everything he said. For example, JKnews becoming a TV show? Let's not kid ourselves. Justin was right when he implied that you're saying you want smth but in reality you are working on something different.

[@avo8479]

the blue in green soundtrack is already amazing in its entirety, but in david's vlogs it gets 100x better

[@pamelus7210]

David- "He knows me he knows he does'nt have to be nice about it. If you want to say something, just say something". Some minutes earlier talking about when Justin DID say something; David - " I don't know if I'm a bitch for wanting him to say it nicer". I love you David but I really think you were being a hypocrite.

[@michaelhuang7007]

Talking to a friend when you want to them to be better than they are now is an art. It's a touchy line and to be fair, most people aren't that amazing at it. But, most friends also don't look out for you like that. I've been in Justin's shoes many times and I hope you appreciate that he's trying to make you think from other perspectives. When you have these type of conversations, you have to be completely genuine and really believe in the other person; make sure they know that.

[@flyshichin3628]

I feel like shit today.

[@kaiya1969]

[@rain.enthusiast]

Holy shit this video makes you want to be roommates with Khalif and David god dammit they seem like such chill and great people

[@jnc-rs6fk]

This new style that you implemented on this vlog is new, extremely raw, and unfiltered. It's different and it stands out compared to other people who vlog their content. I just didn't like the fact that you were venting to Khalif about Justin. I found that a little bit instrusive, but I also understood your intention of filming that scene. I mean, as long you and Justin are cool at the end of the day, then it's fine.

[@teenieweenie2440]

The way I see it is that David likes to sharpen the knife he's been given while Justin buys new ones.

[@bumjanh8660]

I could sense what David is saying. Justin came off very , I don't know how to explain but it seems as thought he was belittling everything David was saying. He should have been super blunt and just say it instead of "It doesn't make sense because . . . .", so I get David.

[@98mrbigboss]

dude I like this shit. when we watch skits and vlogs we see the character of David so. but this vlog let's me learn so much more about you as a person. love this shit
