@Jackson Gilmore true he could be alot worse, I just don't rate how he says 1 thing does the complete opposite. With pretty much anything its fake I cannot rate it
This is such a pretty interview, that sounds weird but daves vibe is just so chilled and comforting, the scenery is so beautiful, the outfits he’s wearing and the way he answers questions, I dunno I just love this interview
@@P3ACENATION very true but majority of uk artists can appeal to more than 1 demographic for me personally i only ever see nerds listening to avelino lol no offence to anyone, but having such a weird fanbase is not going to help his career.
Had the chance to meet dave and have a chat with him and was a pleasure! can say he is the most level headed and well mannered he shows love to everyone!
@@Zeeshanbeats bro he's right. Just because he's popular doesn't mean he's great. He's voice is monotone and his beat selection is often terrible. Royce da 59, king Los, mad squablz. The list goes on regarding American rappers that are better than him. Just because you like him doesn't mean everyone does
Love Dave! Wanna know got my attention first, then Six Paths dragged me further. The quality is unmatched, every time you listen, you discover something new. My personal favourites are ‘Two birds no stone’ and ‘How I met my ex’. The latter is a lot similar to my first relationship as I also ‘met my girl when I was 18 years old and she was just turning 23’, regardless, the song has a lot more to say and we can learn valuable lessons from it even after just one listen. Instant goosebumps! Saw him live in Leicester, one of the best shows I’ve been to. Dave also got a fan on stage at that time, however he didn’t become as famous as Alex. Great interview and detailed GQ piece! Appreciate you Dave. Looking forward to the album!
@@bilalmahmood2366 of course you’d say that. A man who’s done well for himself and you’re saying “he’s sold himself out”. This is why the uk won’t progress ffs.
@@lemonsviral I really think Skepta has come almost full circle now. He's no longer about the glitz and the glamour and just does what he wants, when he wants. There was a stage where he started making radio songs, but he's far from that now. I can't understand why people say artists sell out when they're successful and make money. If they rap about violence and gangs when they're rich, they're fake- but if they don't leave the hood, they're a wasted talent.
I’m from Canada. I knew one song by Stormzy but through Spotify, learned of Dave. Kept seeing this Dave guy and realised he was sick AF!!! Didn’t need anybody’s hype to realise it too.
Dave vs the Universe...nah it's now Dave vs Chip...all jokes aside seeing the growth of Dave is honestly inspiring to see. He is definitely a multi talented person so what he will go onto accomplish in years to come is going to be a pure joy to see...facts or undeniable undisputed truth?

I hope Dave knows Ireland is not in the Uk 😂 but goateed still
Stunning legend

Yes. Yes he is.
We need a part 2

“im still tryna break through”
*Leans back on the aston*
😂😂😂 but tbh world wide he still didn’t breakthrough the Uk scene is still underrated
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂 funniest comment
😭😭
He means globally
The way he said 'everything's a luxery on a desert island' sounded like a bar from one of his songs
likely
almost as if he’d rehearsed his answers 🙄
he had a bar about islands on “two birds no stones”
That's just speaking proper, nothing special about that phrase, but big up Dave tho
@@Lovelee95 Innit too many of his fans are so easily impressed by anything he does
Dave is a real U.K. legend and he’s only 23.
More mature than 99% of these ‘artists’ out there.

@Jackson Gilmore all he dose these days if flex tbh I’m not calling him fake but his words lack content these days
why you putting artists like that?
Lol dave is so chill, its like he always 30 mins away from sleeping
He wasn't always like this, it happened to Ed after he went to America too, I wonder what happens while there ?!

Noticed that too😎
He’s a breath of fresh air when it comes to modern day rappers, has a real creative humbleness about him.
I’m so so glad he said Avelino. I really am. He is criminally underrated.

Hes not for everyone though
Avelino guided him he was always gonna say him

Bro ur so lucky thats my dream
dave's rapping ability is freakin insane man. he's so versatile too. my first song was hangman a few years ago. he doesnt miss
It’s mad how down to earth and humble Dave is
Arguably one of the best of all time and an MC at his age, 23 and been doing this since 16 on his black box, still no ceiling to his career
Potential to be goat but not yet
He is nowhere near the best. He's good but I don't understand why people think he's so advanced. Maybe because a lot of UK artists are basic?
@@Universal-aura123 he’s better then most us rappers

So glad he said avelino is the most underrated because he really is, tiny boost and Young's Teflon are up there too for the uk most underrated
He seems like a very humble down to earth fella, Great to see
the styling, cinematics and general vibe was on point.

You can tell he has matured and his thought process is not on this planet anymore his fully a changed man he is no longer 6 paths Dave his moved on

I wish Netflix could make a Dave Series🥺
Rap’s prodigal son
Can we talk about how young, handsome and talented this man is???🥺❤️
He is gorgeous and such a creative genius. Much respect for his craft and talents.
I will fight you for him shereece 🤣
Who wants Dave to make a song with J Cole?

Don’t really know how they will compliment each other but it’ll be interesting if they collab

Such a laid back and simple guy
Feel like I could watch this forever.
He already on his way to becoming a certified legend he already has a classic album something we can listen too 29 years from now

Going down as the best in British history for his genre.
Never can or will be greatest . He’d have to create his new original style and genre and not imitate other personas Jamaicans of U.K.
