Man August wouldnt sell out. They killed his career. He always speaked about God and spoke real things to his fans. We ALL could relate to him. Thats what made him special. I thank god we got him in time. He was addicted to percs, smoked weed & was a ciroc boy & now he going blind. They tried to take him but he fought to stay faithful to who he served from the beginning.
I said the same thing real recognize real he always said that industry was fake anyway and he been had a mind of his own stay solid Aug God got you believe that
I am going to keep it 100. I shed tears many times watching this. Not just because of the ending. But the meaning behind it. I've lost so many people in this life. My mom, uncle, grandmom, close friends etc. You trying to be all you can be. To be that beacon of light for those that love you. You might not see him as an incredible singer but his substance will reach in your heart and bring you close to the things that are important to you. Which is what music is all about.
i guess ive never experienced a death from family or close friends maybe im lucky maybe not... i cant imagine the pain u went through brother stay strong man even tho u lost them u gotta live man... maybe it is the worst pain in the world but ur strong! believe in you and if you dont believe in you know that theres people who do... live for those people and know that people like you help me do what i love , im with you man even tho u dont know me i support yo ass now get down there and fight!
Nancy Dicintio there is no god... young lady.... god is just an excuse for something that is not explainable... and the things we cannot explain with science will soon fade... trust in urself... dont put ur fate in the hands off luck... everything good that happends its due to god? humm pls...
Inail Aislin The Message You Are Sending Isn't True If Gods Not Real Why Are We Here , We Didn't Just Magically Appear On This Earth , So Who Do You Look Up Too God Is The Answer To All Your Questions , Without God There Wouldn't Be Science So , Im Just Letting The Message Out , God Got You Through Major Situations 😥😇🙏
August Alsina is so underrated yoo he song really stop and make me think about how did he mange to get through all that at a young age I really look up to him as a role model man
you already heard his story in his past songs but watching the documentary and getting to see & hear his story again makes you feel more spiritually connected to this man. He is a living breathing testimony of Faith, Love & Strength.
Demetria Stevenson Reading is fundamental and clearly y’all didn’t read his caption or what was reported on the blogs because she wasn’t his biological sister she was his brother Mel’s girl. They had been together since like middle or high school. With that said stop making everything about August because it’s 3 beautiful girls out here who had now lost both of their parents! Anyway Happy Sunday!
Spreezy 00015 I’m not sure why people are spreading this false narrative about her being his biological sister. Anyway when you’re August Alsina that’s what you want, people to make it all about you. Now he’s perpetuating like he’s their full time dad or whatever. Them girls live and go to school in New Orleans with his SISTER IN LAW’s family! It’s plenty of people within both parents family who want to play that role. Those girls are covered in love and will be taken care of regardless.
londonredmond1 Don’t get mad at me because you were WRONG! My comment still stands and that in which you grossed over. So again she was not his sister this was his brother Mel’s fiancé. We can debate all day but it still doesn’t change the fact that she was his sister because of his brother and most importantly those girls. Unless you’ve lost BOTH of your parents then don’t try to speak on who’s hurting the most. You and cry baby ass August can have a seat.
londonredmond1 Girl GONE!!! You acting like 3 children who are pre teens haven’t lost BOTH of their parents so you comparing that to grown ass August who has too much pride to even form a relationship with his mother? You know what I’m not about to play with you. Happy Friday!
I will never forget about you ❤ Listening to your songs made me strong. I need your song to remind me who i am. Life is hard but keep on being strong Aug.
This video is so amazing. August is so real and he's so humble. Hearing him cry brought tears to my eyes. I bet his brother is lookin down on him smiling. August is the truth!
August Alsina The Realest One Out Here ! His Lyrics Come From His Own Mind , & Expiriences . He Been Thru More Than Anyone Could Imagine , & For Somebody To Judge Him , Is Hella Ocky . But Hes The Baaaaae ♥♥♥ Love Him ,
Forreal . He's Trying To Make It For His Family . He Tryna Make A Way . Hes Something In Life , Compared To The Haters He Has . August Is Bae For Life 💕😁 . So Yaaah . Don't Hate (; But I Agree With You . He Shouldn't Be Judged ._.
This song relates to me so much! I lost my older brother because he was caught up in the streets! I too got caught up for a couple years but through God seen the light! So now I have my dream job and everything for me is falling into place I just want my family and close friends to know you can be anything you want to be! Just because you grew up a type a way that doesn't mean you can't be someone! Let go of your past and shine ⭐️ will not forget my people and will return every single favour ❤️
This man is truly blessed mentally and spiritually and physically he is extremely strong and keeps his faith he inspires me everyday to stop doing wrong and to go in the right path and that MIRACLES DO HAPPEN💕💍😍
I'm wiping tears from eyes & typing this message with the utmost sincerity. August Alsina is the epitome of a true artist!!! He pours his heart & soul into everything he creates! I respect where he's been, give much praise for where he's at, & truly believe in where he's going! This man is beyond strong, amazingly talented, & as real it gets!!! We've only begun to see his capabilities unfold before our eyes & ears! I can't wait to see what's next for the one & only, August Alsina!! ;)
stay strong August Alsina #stay strong # be confident # be safe # keep ur head up # it's ok to cry # live, love,& laugh # ur fans are here for u 24/7 # we love u August Alsina
I cry everytime I hear this song. I can relate to the message on so many levels. Growing up in the hood is not easy. People getting killed everyday, drug dealings, robberies, etc. My sole purpose in life is to take care of my family and give back to where I came from. I grew up in South Dallas: Oak Cliff which is just as hood as anywhere else. When I got my almost full ride shcolarship to Texas A&M University College Station, I cried. I knew that God had given the oppurtunity to achieve the one thing I wanted to in life. That is to make my mom proud and have her live her days as happy and content as possible. Being the baby out of 10 kids is a lot of pressure. Especially since everyone else has none really done anything with their life. I feel like I'm my moms last hope. I have one brother and one sister who have died. I also want to show other kids from the hood, that you don't have to be a product of your environment. Just because everyone else falls int that cycle, doesn't mean you have to. Stay strong August, stay positive, keep making your mom proud, keep giving back, and keep your brother and loved ones in your heart. Much love.
Say no more! This song is so sad. When im feeling down, i listen to this song and realize it always could be worse! August Alsina speaks he's mind. I respect that
This song reminds me of where I've come from and where I'm going ♡ I'm teaching my babies you can do anything if stay true to yourself, your children, and most definitely the One and Only God.
August Alsina is a great singer. I pray for Melvin La'Branch III everyday and i'm very thankful to Melvin La'Branch III because he inspired August to hold on and continue in his music career. I will always remember that day August 31, 2010
God damn. He is so real. All his songs are about his life and the real things in everyone lives. He is blessed and he sings from the bottom of his heart. The end tho..I cried.
luan7333 lol where did you hear that? R&B stands for Rythem and Blues. Totally different. August just took the Lyfe and Bone thugs and harmony route by combining the two genres.
+TomVinova that is not true he is talking about himself and reminding his self that he be thankful 4 what everyone else did 4 him and repaying and saying dont forget about the ppl that were by his side
i don't understand these types of comments tho.. Unless people know Alsina or his immediate family on a personal level how can anyone feel justified saying anything definitive at all about him or his family or their situation? His song may be about real life and it may not be. Obviously something like a sibling being murdered can be verified but top the poster who said his mom and him don't get along - I'm assuming you read that and if I'm right did it also state the same reason you gave for why? Maybe it's just my ocd but it's so easy to phrase "i think" or " in my opinion" or " from what I've heard/read/seen/was told/etc" into a sentence. That and passing attention would pretty much effectively end rumors.
My son's name is August bc this man has helped me through so much shit with his music! Wasn't the main influence but a HUGE part of it! ❤ He will NEVER be forgotten!
I love him sooooo much. The crack in voice when he begin to cry was so genuine. I know it put him right back in that moment. Hes not Chris Brown or Trey songz...hes August in a league of his own
I remember shedding tears in dark to this. Man I promise I feel bro I been through similar shit in life at the time I didn't quite understand at the time why am I being brutally punished my whole life from my experiences I understand now it's all just lessons molded me into the person I am today I'm actually thankful for my painful past and look forward to a beautiful future my soul resonated with this dude music so much I name my second son after him so my love to you August I wish you peace Abundance of love, light, and wisdom to you and your love ones we're GOD'S having a human experience
this man soul has been torn but like he said someone has to carry on and his family means more to him then rather giving inspiration YES TOTALLY A REAL MAN
I absolutely adore & respect this man! His voice is beautiful & so unique. Even when he talks, I love his voice. He is one of the realest in the industry! He ain’t no follower, he’s a leader! He is who he is.. he’s strong with his beliefs & ain’t no one Gonna change it. May God bless this man 🙏🏻 Lord, please wrap your loving arms around him, feel his heart & soul with your Holy Spirit.. so that he will feel your peace, comfort, calmness & everlasting love. Don’t allow any weapon formed against him by the enemy, to prosper. Place a hedge of protection around him & send an army of your angels, to fight any battles that may come his way. For you created him, you can certainly recreate him, please cast out, any unproductive cells & restore his health, so that he may function & live his life, for the way you intended him to. In Jesus name I Pray, Amen 🙏🏻✨🕊❦✞
august...u seem to be a humble and a beautiful man inside out.your music deliver and some of them really hits my heart deeply.your voice and style makes u so unik ... keep it up!
I grew up listening to august. I just love him. 💙 August you got me through a very deep drug addiction and depression when I was a teen. I use to listen to your beautiful voice and all the pain went away, life was perfect and beautiful for the moment. You understood me. Your voice took away the pain. Love you forever!
I died with this. I cried so much because I never thought somebody went thru the same struggle I go thru with my brothers and I growing up in the hood. Its so hard and Im so grateful for this song and for August
Goddammit this song speaks to me all the time i just turnd 21 i provide for my nephew whoes mom is in prison hes bouta be 7 now ive set myself in this situation for the past 3 yrs my how the time has past. i love my boy he's like a son to me and when i hear this song it makes me think of all that ive accomplished and that hopefully my family wont forget about me
+Eric Yelloweyes Well done sir! Surround yourself with success bro. Success breeds success! You're doing the right thing, and I wanted to take time out to tell you that. You're a good man. Keep it up. Only moving forward!

They tried to take him but he fought to stay faithful to who he served from the beginning.

crying at the end of this song
when he heard his brother was
killed this is a song from the heart
bless you and your family.
Not many artists this real in the industry 💯 August songs almost be having me in tears
and a lot of people say hes trash because they dont understand the depth of his music, they're used to the trash on the airways i guess.
Almost all of his song have me in tears,This one is so emotional because it reminds me of all the people that died in my family and mt 3 dogs.
August Alsina is so underrated yoo he song really stop and make me think about how did he mange to get through all that at a young age I really look up to him as a role model man
right 😌
It's because these days music like this doesn't sell or go off at the "clubs" 😏 people are so blind these days

DONT FORGET TO PUT AUGUST IN YOUR MUSIC FOR THIS YEAR.
Laying a brother to rest is the worst feeling ever cause you're supposed to grow old with your siblings
I been there homie,i don't ever wanna experience losing a brother or a loved one again.
I’ve done it twice I know the feeling plus two nephew who was like my sons both killed for selfish reasons
ua-cam.com/video/5KjFHFuGZAg/v-deo.html
Well I have buried 4 of my siblings most recent is my Twin not to mention my mother gone as well so I feel this song.
I cry everytime I hear this song. I can relate to the message on so many levels. Growing up in the hood is not easy. People getting killed everyday, drug dealings, robberies, etc. My sole purpose in life is to take care of my family and give back to where I came from. I grew up in South Dallas: Oak Cliff which is just as hood as anywhere else. When I got my almost full ride shcolarship to Texas A&M University College Station, I cried. I knew that God had given the oppurtunity to achieve the one thing I wanted to in life. That is to make my mom proud and have her live her days as happy and content as possible. Being the baby out of 10 kids is a lot of pressure. Especially since everyone else has none really done anything with their life. I feel like I'm my moms last hope. I have one brother and one sister who have died. I also want to show other kids from the hood, that you don't have to be a product of your environment. Just because everyone else falls int that cycle, doesn't mean you have to. Stay strong August, stay positive, keep making your mom proud, keep giving back, and keep your brother and loved ones in your heart. Much love.
Say no more! This song is so sad. When im feeling down, i listen to this song and realize it always could be worse! August Alsina speaks he's mind. I respect that
Tijuana Leatrice Brown Hey girl I'm from Dallas too! Props to you for making it out and being an example for others.
Can't help but tearing up when he learns about his brother's death...so sad...
Omg the pain in his voice 😔😔
Here it is almost 2023 and I'm still listening to this song daily. I love you August Alsina 💜💋🧡💙
Same... It just crossed my mind...
Crossed mines too ❤
It’s 2023 NOW AND HERE I AM ❤ PRAY GOD BRING HIM BACK TO HIS PURPOSE HE ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS I KNOW I HAVE PURPOSE 🥰‼️
his songs like this make me cry i still listen to them and the ending part made me cry all the way
dfg
yass
Yes it's makes me cry
you ain't lying girl
yasss😭
2020 and still one of the realest artist of all time...we still praying August ❤🇰🇪
The end got me all teared up💔😢😭 Broke my heart to hear him cry!! I feel so bad.💔
This brother was delt a bad hand but he never folded......Miss this man...and he still here...Let's give him his flowers now..
So He Talks About Taking Care Of His Family And He Cries At The End And You're Gonna Have The fucking nerve To Dislike This?
That's just IGNORANT ass people in this world! But i'm rocking with August Alsina
Maybe some people just dont like the song whatever it may be about this music isn't to everyones taste. Personally I love it.
I know that um
ikr hes amazing if that was your family you were singing about you would be mad at all the dislikes show some freaking
respect
Thank you omfg
This song reminds me of where I've come from and where I'm going ♡ I'm teaching my babies you can do anything if stay true to yourself, your children, and most definitely the One and Only God.
Hm
World need more moms like you love. One love.

Damn thats some real shit, sorry for your loss big homie.
I love how his voice sounds. Its definitely unique, different and hypnotizing
August Alsina is a great singer. I pray for Melvin La'Branch III everyday and i'm very thankful to Melvin La'Branch III because he inspired August to hold on and continue in his music career. I will always remember that day August 31, 2010

Some pain scars deep... Time never heals, it just numbs it...

The ending of the song got to me though. Keep your head up August. I know your bro is proud of you!!
la atkinson hey
God got you baby! Look up! ❤️🙏🏽🙌🏽 keep speaking your truth! 😭😭😭😭😭 touched my soul!
God damn. He is so real. All his songs are about his life and the real things in everyone lives. He is blessed and he sings from the bottom of his heart. The end tho..I cried.
I agree with everything u just said
thank you x
"We need more faith in this world," like what his hoodie says.
It means MORE the hoodie and the word ...... he is "walking" by FAITH the word walk means MORE it moving through life with GOD" blindly "
august is my fav. because he don't sing or rap about girls sometimes or money he rap about his life and brother they way he grew up love you August
We don't have a lot of good young artists that sing like this, we need more singers
August is the dude that whenever I get in the car I have to play his album first.
You can feel his hurt and his real ness through his songs❤️
The ending of this song always bring tears to my eyes.
I’m feeling his music with my heart !!
I been through struggles of life and to be where I am today , love him❤️❤️
the lyrics of this guy, are another level of reality we see in hip hop today, keep it up august !!
I love him too but he is not a rapper.
yep, but r&b is one of the genres of hip hop!
luan7333 lol where did you hear that? R&B stands for Rythem and Blues. Totally different. August just took the Lyfe and Bone thugs and harmony route by combining the two genres.
r & b is part of hip hop, black music in general, one influences the other, my opinion!!
Angela Yen No...this kid is absolutely nothing like Bone Thugs. At all. Ever.
It's time for August to go over sea's...the world needs to know August Alsina~
Trust me he's overseas here in England
He was just recently in Germany
bet ur mumma is so proud of you and the man u are today ,trust that ur stronger today 😘
Not really she and him don't have a good relationship anymore from what he's said in interviews
A mother may not agree with her child's decisions ,but regardless the love will never die ,works both ways too ,
+TomVinova that is not true he is talking about himself and reminding his self that he be thankful 4 what everyone else did 4 him and repaying and saying dont forget about the ppl that were by his side
+Tyliyah 4Life then why they turn around and say he set his brother up to get killed then?
i don't understand these types of comments tho.. Unless people know Alsina or his immediate family on a personal level how can anyone feel justified saying anything definitive at all about him or his family or their situation? His song may be about real life and it may not be. Obviously something like a sibling being murdered can be verified but top the poster who said his mom and him don't get along - I'm assuming you read that and if I'm right did it also state the same reason you gave for why?
Maybe it's just my ocd but it's so easy to phrase "i think" or " in my opinion" or " from what I've heard/read/seen/was told/etc" into a sentence.
That and passing attention would pretty much effectively end rumors.
“I won’t ever forget where I come from, I come from the bottom.” ✍️🤝🤞

this man soul has been torn but like he said someone has to carry on and his family means more to him then rather giving inspiration YES TOTALLY A REAL MAN
I absolutely adore & respect this man! His voice is beautiful & so unique. Even when he talks, I love his voice. He is one of the realest in the industry! He ain’t no follower, he’s a leader! He is who he is.. he’s strong with his beliefs & ain’t no one Gonna change it. May God bless this man 🙏🏻 Lord, please wrap your loving arms around him, feel his heart & soul with your Holy Spirit.. so that he will feel your peace, comfort, calmness & everlasting love. Don’t allow any weapon formed against him by the enemy, to prosper. Place a hedge of protection around him & send an army of your angels, to fight any battles that may come his way. For you created him, you can certainly recreate him, please cast out, any unproductive cells & restore his health, so that he may function & live his life, for the way you intended him to. In Jesus name I Pray, Amen 🙏🏻✨🕊❦✞
