I love his music too the point where I'm listening and learning his language. They ain't slaves but they love the whips and chains... Forgive me, but can you translate the meaning?
@@janc460 It's a double entendre. Whips and chains were used to enslave Africans in the time of slavery. Now that their descendants are free, they are now enslaved to displaying an image of success by wearing diamond "chains" and driving expensive "whips" (luxury cars).
I don't know if you will ever see this, but my 8th grade students are going to do a project using this song this year. They are so hype about it and so am I. You can see me shining in the shade is going to be our class motto. I teach at a Title I school, and my kids need this song. Thank you.
Heather Wellman thank you for being a positive and fun teacher!! 8th grade was one of the most influential years of my life, so your positive impression will surely last 🖤
That is awesome and thank you for using this as a chance to connect with your students. I rarely comment but had to because I am an education consultant for Title I in my state and some districts/schools/teachers we work with just don’t get how important those connections can be. Hope the projects went well!
,becuz he's not signed to a regular label. Paying attention to him and his queen has changed me. Im planning open doors and pathways for him when he get to Jacksonville FL. So excited ,words will hardly explain.
Because the radio is just for mass production and the majority of people don't listen to the lyrics just the beat...also it's sad enough to say that the majority don't wanna listen to songs with actually meanings...thats why you don't hear him on the radio or maybe he just didn't take the record label route
One of the things I notice watching Tobe's videos, he always has the same people. Most rappers have a bunch of extras bouncing up and down, acting like they're his friends. Tobe, he's got real people that knew him before he came up dancing and singing with him. That's how you know he's real.
"They Not Slaves, they just really like the Whips and Chains, the more things change the more they stay the same" If the world could just hear this... the world would be a better place! All I need you to know is I HEAR YOU, bruh if no one else does, I can feel this flow! #ThisisGODMusic
people hear it and even understand it. They just call it corny and keep doing it. People for the most part want to be controlled because truly being yourself and making your own decisions is terrifying to them.
I swear, as a German it's so strange to see these smooth, cool and awesome musicians wearing socks in sandals... It's kind of funny, and it's kind of German culture - it will always remember me to my grandpa, who has seen this trend already 1950 until 2016. RIP. ❤️
@@darlingtonn.o8152 This is hella dumb man. Best believe your Biafra would not change anything. The colonials already done allotted Africa into fifty four countries. Problems would continue to prevail irrespective of divisions. Read some books, educate your ignorant self and stop beating the drums of war.

@@vcofyoutube you're the one who is ignorant and need to read so books to educate yourself. You mentioned that colonial splitted us but your ignorant self forgot that Nigeria was joined together through colonialism. All the country in Africa are naturally made except nigeria which was formed by Britain for their selfish interests. Again a call for secession and agitation is not a call for war. If biafra is what igbos want then they should be given what the want. It is not by force to be in a country formed by a bitch according to history. Get some education dude.
Tell me thats Galveston.... yeee Htown TX stand uppppppp.....on my 5th replay , just stumbled across Tobe 5hours ago, been on a binge.... pride in his beliefs culture native country and family especially... Lotta things in common, native of pacific isles, here in TX ... on the Nawfside of the H
Omg I’m so glad there’s a brother with this much talent that can represent me. Ik they don’t want positive talent on the radio but he definitely needs more recognition.
"They ain't slaves, they just really like the whips and chains."
What an extremely powerful line.
True
Deep!👌🏿
Levels to them lines

I admire how his Queen hold him down...#FAT👑👑👑
Fat is a quiet boss
Facts

This dude man!!! How is it that the radio is filled with lil this and lil that when there is music like this??
That part. They want us trained on foolery. While a positive message gets shelved. We need today attention.
#openoureyes

Exactly
To real for mainstream!!

Its hos family and his crew
If you look at it from another perspective, those other rappers are giving out jobs and pulling new people into the hip hop/dance/acting community.
@@koujimoreno Ah, yes, job-creator rhetoric. Good.
@@koujimoreno they ain't paying shit.
He is still part of the illuminate he makes sure to do a sign ever video he covers his eye watch it an tell me I'm a lie
big up to the camera guy , he's know's his angles. This here is some next-level creativity
Right?! I was thinking the same shit.
I think this about all his videos lol
Also, the creative ideas behind all of them. Whoever it is (I think hima nd his Queen??) it’s awesome.
U
Right!!!
This dude might just be my new favorite rapper. I swear every song I've heard from him is a damn banger.
✊Still haven't heard a better rapper than Tobe Nwigwe
Amen. His lyrics as fire....so deep....
Amen, music with a message. And it'll make you do some homework as well🔥🔥🔥
Just discovered him today. I am listening to all his music right now and haven't heard one thats not a banger.
"I can't dance like that"😂😂 she so cute
You out here just winning souls for Christ. This is purpose, this is flames, it's time to ELEVATE.
“I need a Check like them Jordan 1s” this was so Perfect for Swagger ❤
Out here making bread, but came from crumbs💯
Now I need a white T that says "I can't dance like that"
Incredible music video, thanks for all your hard work!
IBUILTTHAT 😂😂😂😂
Bruh I am dead “ I can’t dance like that” 😂😭😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Anyone else binging all these vids?

Chuka SmallgodVevo when I saw it I'm like Gambino stole his swag... Or at least tried to borrow some
Tina Marie lol i agree with that, gambino stole little bit
Fat is the girl
I thought I was the only one thinking he was giving that vibe :)
I just found out about this man and in disappointed in myself for not finding him earlier! 🔥🔥🔥
My homie on Facebook shared one of Tobe's videos a few days ago...I feel the exact same way!! #DamnDamnDaaaayum
Me too man. Me too

"They really love the whips and chains... " That's hella deep

Watching the whole of the video with my mouth open... involuntarily
