The Wade-O Radio Video Channel This interview was so real, I'm glad you and Dee 1 spoke on these issues chh has really hurt a lot of people just like some churches. When I met Dee 1 he was genuine and made me want to continue chh but bruh with me really being an x gangster I can agree that their are so many things I've experienced running into these Christian rappers that turn u completely off. I'm just glad that someone real like dee 1 is on a major platform to speak on these things. Solid interview @dee1 and @wade-o real is real Sincerely #Royalty317

[@patrickneal1061]

Dee-1 is so real and I appreciate this interview

[@highprocess28]

Well said!

[@JusDowntown]

With tears in my eyes, thank you Dee-1 for your sincerity & realness. My pride would say - he’s not a Christian because of who he’s around- but my spirit is in agreement with you & God is most definitely with you. Bless you man

This interview was so real! I first saw Dee-1 at Joyfest and he was so good. Keep doing it for the Kingdom Dee-1! God bless

[@SmashinAdams]

After we get Saved, we don't try to live Saved with the mind we used to have - We need God to cut it off. This is why we go through stuff until we learn to let it go. The Church has to embrace change & DELIVERANCE.

[@reginawheeler5146]

Yes

[@DarrylMayes]

Man... I swear dee is the truth

[@lifestyleinvesting1839]

Speak life in others, speak positive communication into their spirit. Life is not promised tomorrow. It's crazy, trigger-happy, and unpredictable. Saving lives.

VE-ry well SAID and PUT💯💯💯💎❗️….

[@indymodestudios2188]

Love Dee-1 heart. Appreciate the video even a year plus later.

[@joelsmith6524]

@Dee-1 from another New Orleanian your keeping real, righteous and relevant. I appreciate the influence you have on our city.

[@theronwright1413]

Much respect to DEE 1. Keep being bold

[@StevenSoto]

I met Dee 1 in 2013 and when I saw him I saw a pillar of light on him. I didn't know who he was but he gave me the Psalms Of David mixtape. I bumped that hard.

[@michellehawkins5319]

Wow. This was an awesome interview. This brother is the truth.

[@mckainentertainmentnetwork5116]

It is such a great album, I have not listened to the album the whole way through, but It was way worth the purchase. I can't wait till Dee-1 comes to North Carolina on his next tour.

[@MrHeavy205]

Realest interview I've seen!

[@kimberlyhill9989]

Dee1. Love your vibe. ❤️Keeping god in #1 position matters the most. Thanks for sharing.

[@KingdomKelly]

Bless you Dee-1, appreciate your journey and realness! Just bought the album. God blesses those who pursue Him more than the business.

[@damienwilson1049]

Great interview!!! love watching Dee 1 get the love he deserves great artist with a positive message thank you wade-o!!!

[@Paris__Michael]

Just my IMMEDIATE two cents, Dee-𝟏, is reMARKABLE in his whole being of HOW he just IS along W/ how this brotha is CLEAR-ly influencing what’s AROUND him for the MUCH BETTER!!…… SaLUTE🫡, and BLESS🙏🏾💫🙏🏾!

[@Apol-los]

That takes a lot of restraint and discernment to not specifically call out a fellow Brother in Christ on a public platform. Encouraging to see a love for the Body trumping the need to specifically express personal hurts.

[@judithsonnnier253]

Psalm 42:8 Much-Love.

[@walkerdrae]

great interview. been waiting forever for this album to drop. now with some insight I'm ready to listen.

[@turronkofialleyne3322]

Incredible interview. Spoke volumes to me. Keep it up!

[@LaStarra]

1:08:30 @wadeo you truly are doing God's work. Keep bringing us great interviews and quality content. We like it when artists go to Sway and take the culture "outside". WE NEED it when they come to you! #3sUp!

Incredible interview. Praise God. #Salute Wade-O

[@indymodestudios2188]

Dee-1 a wise young man

[@melliemel32]

Mel L I really like Dee-1. He seems real and very honest & transparent. My opinion of the Christian rapper thing is this: I don’t feel if you are rapping and representing God, there is no way you shouldn’t want to be called a Christian rapper. That’s what you are, a rapper who is a Christian. To me, there shouldn’t even be a question. I get that artists don’t want to be ‘boxed,’ but what sweeter box to be in than that of a Jesus representer? We don’t have to do God’s work. You don’t have to worry about people not picking up your project if you call yourself a Christian rapper because God take your message where He wants it.

[@dontecherry5911]

Great interview

[@deshawnterry9291]

Awesome Dee 1... the book of Peter says" even baptism doth also now save us" 👍👍👍👍👍

[@jonathanparham]

[@indymodestudios2188]

@ around 47:00 , Wade -O now I know where I know you from. For the life of me I couldn't figure it out. We were in the DMV in some of the same circles (before it was called DMV). [Yankee Boy]

[@judithsonnnier253]

Actually, God came for you he always knew. Much-Love.

[@thalifechanga]

So real💯

[@PositiveVibesONLY_Channel]

This is a good looking man! lol. just flawless. and I love his music, one of my favs

[@brovawinston]

Dee 1 so Correct, people Not trying to be called a Christian rapper is Nonsense and Weak. I'm a Christian rapper and I hold that name Christian in the Highest regard because it's from Christ. They say I'm not a Christian rapper bcuz they don't understand the scriptures and think a Christian can't talk about social injustice or anything else. They need to read the whole Bible, God is concerned about the orphans and widows and oppressed. That's Christianity, so they shun the Christian title when they should embrace it. Dee 1 jus living, who cares what they think

[@nickypac9007]

Dee uno a real one

[@jbezchhninja7744]

Dee-1 you said "that boy Dee-1 had been thru some stuff too, see he came out on top so I'm focused to handle my business" Now what do u say to those who think that way but feel that means they can do some of the stuff that ain't right knowing eventually they can make that change like u did. Even if they know tomorrow isn't promised? Beyond just a biblical answer but a example of consequences and or blessings!!

[@somayehmadadpour8833]

what is the word he used something like gliets...( i do not know) could you help me?

[@bgarrison21]

[@carlosdejesus7970]

Was that student who got killed the one you wrote the song "both sides of the gun" about? 7:02

[@gogodragonmaster]

Carlos DeJesus No. That song was written about two other students.

[@carlosdejesus7970]

gogodragonmaster well he does say in the song that his student started to rap

[@judithsonnnier253]

In fear, call his name JESUS...Much-Love.

[@KeishasTake]

I assume he's talking about Birdman. Is that who it is b/c i hear that a lot of rappers on on the DL? Man not saying names is annoying lol.

[@ashleyperkins2711]

I was thinking the same...

[@judithsonnnier253]

Depression is not of God...Much-Love.

[@tochristbetheglory6221]

Once baptized, you're always baptized! You're a Catholic and so am I. If you were born in the Holy Catholic Church, that's who you are, a Catholic. Since you wanted to rededicate your life to Christ, you should have had the Sacrament of Confession to go along with your re-dedication and repentance. instead of being baptized again! Find your true roots man.

[@malikseifullah5828]

What he said it's true. As a baby you don't have any idea what is being done when your baptized. It has nothing to do with your faith and there is nothing biblical that backs up baby baptism. However in Acts we do have an account of people being re-baptized because the first time they weren't baptized the correct baptism.

[@shakalakabombastic7837]

To Christ Be The Glory you sound silly man lolol. Stop following that man made religion and read your Bible.

[@kriskenard]

Great interview
