It’s one of the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard, Yebba’s voice, Smino verse, the lyrics, the incredible production (the drums are just insane, thanks to Questlove from The Roots) and the moving mv ❤️
Losing a parent is just something you never come to terms with. There is so much love for your Mom in this, it's overwhelming and palpable. Sending you love, Yebba.❤🥀
I've never seen a comment section so overwhelmingly loving, supportive and moved. It's a testament to you and your music and I hope that you continue to get this response because it's more than deserved
Abbey, you are the embodiment of this quote: "It is in the quiet crucible of your personal private sufferings that your noblest dreams are born and God's greatest gifts are given in compensation for what you've been through." - Wintley Phipps Thank you for sharing the gifts born out of your pain. Thank you for not letting go. You have so much more to share and this hurting world needs you.
This brought up so many emotions for me. I lost my Mom to cancer and kidney failure 3 years ago this October. It's my internal struggle now, since most have completely moved on from her passing. But for me I live with it everyday. Prayers for you and thank you so much for sharing these moments of your life with us. Your strength shines through your beautiful music! Much ❤
I'm sorry Marissa ,it's really sad to hear that ,hope you find a way to move on knowing she's still lives in your heart ,she's somewhere looking down at you and protecting you ,she never left you ,never forget that ,stay safe !!
Marissa I feel like you read pages from my journal. I lost my Queen 2 years ago this November to cancer. Everyday is a battle for me. There are days I can smile and feel blessed to have such an amazing mother, and then there's moments when I feel robbed and it hurts in such a way because I can't change it. It's real, she's gone but she was REAL. I see her in my niece smile or hear her laugh in a song. I hold on tightly to her sayings and lessons I didn't know were important until the aftermath. I'm thankful for all of the pictures and videos we took so one day I can share them with my children I hope to have. I leave you with this: give yourself grace. This sadness is proof of love and although we can't physically hold them anymore we carry them in our spirit. They are forever with us and we must continue to live. It won't be easy but their strength is in us. You can and will conquer every obstacle just give yourself grace. Thank you @yebba for sharing emotions and beautiful sounds. God bless you all
I lost my mother from Cancer Jan. 2018 and not one day goes by that I’m not grateful to have been her daughter. I miss her so much! My condolences to you doll! ❤️❤️🕊🕊
Right!!!! ❤ I can't believe I've missed this girl in my fav singers she has that deep soul within her seriously thought she was a black singer with the upmost respect as I'm a huge RnB fan she def has that sound ❤️ ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've listened to this song 100 times in the last three weeks and putting the video to it is giving me chills. I love you tremendously sweet girl, you are a beacon of light and strength. Thank you for sharing yourself with us.
I lost my mom to a stroke in 2005. To this day, I still miss her. I live with all my memories of her and hold them close to me. I feel your pain, like so many of us who feel orphaned by the loss of a parent. My heart goes out to you and to all of us struggling with that void that will never be filled. Now I need a Louie bag! ☺️
This song is not a gospel track, or even a contemporary Christian song. Even still I hear the Lords hand on your life Yebba. Let that be your comfort, He is still using you to touch lives everywhere. Keep it up, stay close.
Yebba shares the inspiration for “Louie Bag” which came to her during a rough period after she lost her mother to suicide: “Someone said to me, ‘You have to make sure this is not going to make you bitter. Bitterness will rob you.’ And at the time I started that song I was in Resentment City, with all these labels trying to sign me and people pressuring me, telling me, ‘you’re never going to see a deal like this again,’ when I just wasn’t ready. So I said to them, ‘If you ever tell me I’m going to miss my chance or I’m going to run out of time, I will pack my bags and go back to Arkansas and I’ll quit singing. Because if I say I’m not ready because my mom just killed herself, then I’m not fucking ready. The answer is no.’ I don’t even own a Louis bag, but when I got my first check from publishing I wrote that line: “Put it in my Louis bag, don’t let it overflow.” It’s for any label that tried to sign me - for all those men talking to me like that. It’s me talking about all the confusion and the disarray I was feeling at the time, and delivering that right to their doorstep. I just sent those bad vibes right back to those motherfuckers.”
Yebba, you truly don’t know how much of a blessing you have been to my life. I lost my mother July 10th to CJD. Before we ever knew what it was, we couldn’t understand why she was in such a declining state from being such a healthy, lively woman. Her last day at home before being taken to the hospital just so happen to be the same day you dropped the October Sky video. That song, this song, YOU, and your music will forever be my healing tool. I thank you and appreciate you more than you will ever know.
You helped me continue to sing in my silence even though no one can never hear me sing God and my son do thanks to you Yebba I Love you big time all the way from SA 🇿🇦
You are rare. Your vocals are perfection but at the same you carry emotions with every sound. I love your music and am excited about everything you release. Here since "My Mind".
I never really get tired of telling Yebba that i genuinely love her with my whole heart. Her art is something that has grown into the most beautiful thing and even beyond that, the powerful meanings behind every creation she does just makes me emotional all the fucking time 🥺 Thank you for your talent and thank you for sharing it with us ❤️
Listening to Smino, I stumbled upon this song. Im so damn late! Ive easily just played this song 7x in a row, then came to check for a video. Who knows how many more times i will listen to it today. Definitely gonna dig into the catalog. Beautiful song and video concept
a whole art piece. wow. blessing us all with the gift of your talent, your vision, and these precious windows into childhood and the becoming of a self. thank you!!!
You got me bawling like a baby right now. Thank you for sharing. You remind me of my daughter when she was little. You ARE precious! ❤️ Love to you and to your mama in heaven.
This is quite emotional. The strength it must of took to create this. Beautiful and personal and you let us into something to so dear to you. Keep healing darling mamma is so proud of you 💐💐💐💐
Young lady I’m so happy you’re taking care of yourself. You stuck up for yourself when people put pressure on you. Hands up to you. And sing sing sing 🎶 🥰
So in love with the vulnerability and truth you put into every work of art you make. You don't say things out right, but all the meaning can be found when I close my eyes and just feel. I am so glad your art exists. Thank you.
Yebba, your voice, your honesty, your artistry is truly a gift and we are all the better for having experienced it. May your beloved mother speak to you and visit you in your dreams...love & light, peace to those grappling with unspeakable grief and loss.
Song is so beautiful. This is now one of my new favorite Smino verses 😄🔥. So dope that they both worked together on this! 😭 He’s one of my all time favorite artists
To know you is to love you, and I truly feel like I know your heart and your mother’s beautiful spirit through your songs. My life is better because of your ministry to the world
i listen yebba last nite for first time..waooo....im freezze...outstanding voice nice arragements great sound.....keep rocking the soul...sista...great job...bless
This was hard to watch but really cleansing….i haven’t watched anything with my mommas face in it for years….I can only imagine 💞 strength to you and Thankyou for this art.
Healing balm to the soul. Dealing with some painful emotions at the moment coming to terms with my mother getting older and all that comes with it. Thank you for providing such beautiful melodies…like the lullabies.
Yebba! I am so proud of you for persevering through your struggles and coming out SHINING LIKE A STAH!!! The masterpieces you’ve created have helped me and so many others through such hard times. You keep me going, Yebba, thank you thank you thank you!!!
Its funny how I'd be listening to spotify and a song is recommended and you don't quite know the artist and you start racking up there music and than that same artist ends up on Drakes album and thats when you realize how you've been listening to. This keeps happening to me. Yebba my new but old favorite artist 🙊🙈🤎🖤
Love to y'all. It was a bit difficult to put together my childhood videos for this but I'm happy to share with you. Enjoy.
We love you Yebba, you’re a pure gem❤️
Thank you so much for sharing. A blessing you are 💓
Truly precious.
Love this and cannot wait for the album!
THANK YOU YEBBA! I really appreciate your vulnerability! We all do! Much love!
And y'all already know Smino's part is the best.
And you’re fine AF…
I deadass thought this was just someone hating at first 😂
It’s just perfect! Both of y’all are meant to be on this song
Both of y’all’s parts are perfect 😍

Yebba is one of the most underrated singers today :(
Do something about it, like sharing her art on ur social media would be helpful! And streaaaammmm 🥰
It would be a good idea, but it wouldn't be enough...
@@ronnyfrz just do it if u actually care it will help a lot
She hasnt even released her first album yet, cmon
Because she didn’t put out much
Our deepest suffering becomes our greatest gift. May you keep healing and moving towards the light.
🙏🏼
All the best to Yebba!!

I'm 35 and it's 3.25 on a Caribbean island. I found this again, and fell in love once more.
So good, Smino using Yebba in the verse was fire 🔥

Ooo she does sound similar to Kimbra here, which is interesting bc Kimbra has a pretty unique voice
I MISS KIMBRA SO MUCH HOLY FUCK
This must have been so emotional for you. Thank you for letting us in your world Yebba, this is really beautiful

Wow. I knew she was gifted as a singer but I didn’t know she was a fucking G. This is more than inspirational.
My god I love her so much.
Your voice is a gift and has been so uplifting to some many. Can't wait to hear you live.. whenever that can happen lol.
She's opening for John Mayer. I had no idea until I got to the concert and FREAKED OUT!!
Yebba, you truly don’t know how much of a blessing you have been to my life. I lost my mother July 10th to CJD.
