Wale is one of the best rappers on the planet. people that hate on him are probably trying to protect their favorite rapper because wale is a serious threat to 95% of rappers lyrically and with that flow

[@links898]

I honestly love Wale. He has put DC back on the map & have given us a voice in hip hop. Go Go music is everything here in the nation's capital. I love how he has found a way to infuse both rap & go go into something special which reaches the masses of people in a positive light. His talent is not taught. Wale is truly Gifted & the best is still yet to come. The DMV is rooting for you. Keep doing your thing!

[@atr1ll]

Wale is the best lyricist in the game. Listen to attention deficit, more about nothing, 1-11-11 theory, ambition, folarin, the gifted. Our generation of Nas in my eyes.

[@KadmielPlayList]

I watch this almost everyday to enhance my mind on how amazing Wale is

[@Omnipotent-Bread]

Every day?? Wow.

[@thomasanderson3892]

He is indeed a breath of fresh air for real. But DC really needs to wake the hell up and support each other, for real. Because the main reason why we are down, is because we stay down all because if one person shines, everybody hates that. Just give homie props and keep it going.

[@Blackavelli202]

DC we in here! UPT all day!

[@kismetbridgeforth9131]

Under rated? I can't imagine that. Cleveland radio gives Wale a lot of airplay. Wale's music is like opening a window in a smoke filled room - fresh air. His style is signature, not carbon-copy but still very marketable. How can that be under rated?

[@bravo_steve]

fresh air indeed. Man I swear Wale is fresh air to this rap/hip-hop industry. Man.. such an inspirational dude. Makes me want to write poetry lol.

[@evertoncharles2236]

Honestly think his lyrics are unique............... #Real

[@MrTevindodd]

Whoever thinks Wale is garbage should just stop listening to hip hop...he spits nothing but real shit that's why Ross signed him

[@deem132]

Seriously love this man so much. Proud Fan. Xoxo

[@UhMuthaFkinVirgo]

Loved this man since (i) first heard of him in 08.... Knew he would b something Big !!! Wale' . Flo.S.C. Loves u baby.

[@Clifffields]

my main memory from WALE!!! is staying up late on a school night with my brother refreshing myspace because he said that 100 miles and running is coming out at midnight. there was a time when only the D.M.V messed with him so it truly is amazing to see him at this level

[@FashionPublikMatter]

Wale you are very intelligent artist. I appreciate your music and gift to the industry

[@rickjames21]

I am not from DC but I have always loved dude. He stands for something and he is a wordsmith. If you cannot respect that then your whole perspective is wack.

[@one4chord]

Wale is Raw! great lyricist, songwriter, and performer. One of my inspirations in music! Respect!

[@MusicAndIAre1]

How can you not love Wale? I already knew he was great but after watching this I appreciate him even more for the music he makes. The Gifted is hands down AMAZING!

[@jeffjordan4986]

This Brother is the Truth!! Very Talented!!!!!!!

[@MichaelXboxEvolved]

Went to see this dude at The Howard Theater the other week. Great show, he did his thing. Big ups to Wale, everyone from the DMV got to see this dude grind and now he's soaring to the top. Respect

[@tevinanderson1311]

Wale if you see this man...I just want to say thank you for realness and real hip hop. You truly display true music for the soul and you have definitely inspired and subliminally help reignite my spirit. Thank you! Keep making music man! #The Gifted #Attention Deficit #Back to the Future #Ambition #The Nothing Album #There is always something in nothing. It's just too obscure to the eye until you finally get a revelation. Again thank you!

[@PiecedApartMusic]

Pieced Apart Music endorses lyricists like WALE. This is what it's all about. The NEAR future of Top Ten Music!

[@natashalee9224]

Loved this Documentary and thank you for showing all of the elements of the DMV. Proud of Wale, proud of my hometown and the album is Amazing!!!!

[@prettyladypg]

I love a I've always been a fan of wale every since that joint with jermih . he defiantly underrated. his confidence is so sexy and comes across in his swag

[@TeTejones1294]

One of my favorite rappers...I love me some WALE.

[@spaankthaproducer160]

Anybody else see the baphomet head 14:51 , smh

[@leleeladee2140]

Wale, you gonna be alright. Especially when u get with me. LOL I'm your destiny!!!! LOL

[@Estacubanita]

Wale....Keep pushing we need you!! Your time will come when they realize that you’re speaking the truth!! Don’t stop being passionate...Don’t stop speaking the truth...Don’t allow the haters to mess with your head... You motivate me every day with your songs to keep pushing and fulfilling my purpose. Our generation is lost and they need us (#thegifted) to help them wake up and smell the coffee. If the gifted give up then we are most definitely doomed.

[@PurebreedFLA]

One of my favorite albums...Wale is definitely necessary to the balance in Hip Hop

[@skillz1130]

Much respect and love for Wale. Stay humbled

[@DJsaynomore]

Love the" drop" record with wizkid,, Thanks for the Saynomore shout out...Record is in high rotation on my radio show in Liberia and Im killin it in the club out here!!.. Wale in West Africa real soon!!!!!!!...Stay Tuned!!!! Real Rap is Back!!!!!!!!!

[@Notorious4201]

yessss my favorite part is when they talking about gogo !!!!! i love gogo mane DC my city all day !!!! im jamming !!!!

[@JamesDixonDontSleep]

Been bumping Wale since he first hit the scene.

[@narizona84]

It's funny when ol girl stated that most people was like "why would rick ross choose to go with Wale out of all the rappers?" when I was like "why would Wale choose Rick Ross?" But I see now why he did because of the creative freedom. I've been down with Wale since the beginning and I supported him more when I found out he was from the DMV - PG County stand up! Born and raised in PGC Landover, Riverdale, Bladensburg, Glenarden, Takoma Park!

[@iiAmDecoo]

I just want to thank you Wale for your amazing album and outstanding lyrics man, really really inspiring stuff.

[@Cee03]

wow, that was a really inspiring documentary. Wale is one of the greatest out there and in my opinion labeling him as underrated is wrong. Look at were he's right now, what he's already achieved. Hell, he is a perfectionist concious of his product, which fuels him to strive for even more, even better. Being an artist means keeping evolving, setting new bounderies and overcoming them. That's all he does, that's what he deserves respect for. Truely gifted

[@blairchandler7506]

keep doing yuh thing big man Wale { ps one of your many fans from bim (barbados)}

[@certifiedbaddass92]

Wale is "The Next Tupac" point blank period there's no artist that can top his level of word play, poetry skills, etc (other than Tupac himself). Been a fan since his mixtape in 2005 he hasnt disappointed yet just improvements

[@TheJqwest09]

The college radio DJ hit the hammer on the nail about the elements taken from Go-Go... putting POP beats from Go-Go mixing it to poetry over rhythm. We create what they call H.i.p H.o.p which is a meaning within its self! what the industry saw an capitalize off was the money, commercial, branding side of the movement and social attention hip hop brought to the radio. Same effect Go-Go has. Go-Go makes money, their music has hit commercials, and we definitely a brand its called soul!

[@aubreytaylor3247]

I love to see young black men that are well versed and in tune with urban element of life.

[@theworldiswatchin]

Salute the homie Wale! Let you know that hometown hate is everywhere not just in your own city... "The World Is Watchin"

[@djwaterboi]

[@JasmineBester]

[@SoulSolace100]

This was dope. That's a talented brotha. He needs to not speak about how the public hates him again...he is bringing it into his life. Just do work cuz he's ill.

[@EMCFilmz]

[@whoyathought400]

Why do people hate Wale so much???? I simply don't understand! I mean, you can not like his music but people hate him to a scary extent! Not just musically! Is there something I don't see as a big Wale fan? (Not that anything anyone says will divert my love for his music)
