You may never see this But this changed me and my family’s life. I got locked up 2 years ago and this was my favorite song. Every time I called my family the last 2 minutes we would listen this. Thank you man for keeping me and my family sane in such a dark time
One of my closest friends took his life a little over two years ago. Every time I would hang out with him at his house before it happened I would hear this song playing in the background and didn't really understand the impact the song had on me until after he died. Heard it again about 3 months after he died while I was tripping and it made me cry uncontrollably. Thank you for making such a beautiful and inspirational song. My goal is to one day make a song that portrays how this song made me feel.
This song really makes me cry bro. It really gets to me emotionally. Its like its saying “ listen you may have made mistakes but your kid will definitely be a better version of you. He or she will reach greatness in life
Abe Tastik I wasn't a religious guy till recently but if you break down the bible God raised his son to save/fix his "our" mistakes. We as men try to raise our sons to be better than we were.
FG i knew you loved yourself some Rashad, i would have no problem with a new lyric video for every song on the album! but for reals you have to do some whenever you can!
Bro you should check Chester Watson, dudes ill. I'd love it if you'd make a lyric video for Phantom or anything off of Tin Wooki. He could seriously use the exposure too.
This song is becoming one of those nostalgic songs that make me feel a little bit of sadness and happiness at the same time. Love Isaiah since Cilvia. Im now 28 years old and this song will forever remind me of my early twenties. Love
Facts just turned 31 today and this song has been on the back of the music list for awhile but still manage to play it time to time because of the memories I have with this track
@@airbud3 im gon turn 31 in...44 days wow...on 11th march...didnt even realize...remember thinkin what i really wanted to get done before i turn 30, now its year later in blink of an eye and physically i havent really moved an inch, im thankful for all the music cause its about the only thing in this world that shakes me up to feel what i need to...and i think i need to replay isaiahs albums before that date comes
This song makes me be in the shoes of isaiah and the kid being my little brother. sometimes i wish i had money to make him be happy but now I understand money isn't happiness. having each other is. Having each other can/will fill full your inner self, which makes you love yourself and loving that one person. you first got to love yourself to know yourself- mick jenkins .
Said Ibrahim Check out Logic, Immortal Technique, Lowkey.. etc. anything that is Avant-Garde will always be better than anything that is released commercially and pushed out through the mainstream to reach the masses
This song is so beautiful. So much beauty in Isaiah's art but so so so much pain hiding behind that smile. The world needs more guys like Isaiah, this sorta vulnerability and realness hasn't gone unappreciated. Thank you to Isaiah and TDE for this wonderful piece of music I keep coming back to years later.
sunny i feel the exact same way every time i listen. The whole album is like tht pretty much, some more hope inspiring than others. This album is pure gold to me
That tone of thoughtfulness is nostalgia - I feel the same way - it's a huge reason I fucking love it so much. Makes you sit back and smell the roses - fucking great music.
I met isaiah rashad in Munich at the parking spot before an concert I'm a huge fan of him What I can say is that this guy is the perfect definition of lovely humanity He greeted us, gave us an hug and thanked us for visiting his perfect concert at isaiah, thank God for having you, thank you for the opportunity to take an picture together and keep going, you're awesome
Man, I met him in New York. I’d been in America for a month forcing my gf to listen to him the whole trip, and then I bumped into him outside a souvenir store killing time before my flight home. Small world. He was thankful for a fan from Scotland haha. See you again Rash!
It's crazy here in America good decent rappers don't really get all the love but all whack rappers that keep poisoning the culture get all the money and airtime and don't rap about shit but drugs bitches and holding dirty ass money to they peanut ass head
Ay bro since you like music like this check out this song soundcloud.com/ungratefulsounds/ebony-high-paco if you don’t like just forget I sent this but if you do follow me on Twitter @otherwise029 ,Instagram paco_rugrat ,Facebook Keishaun Harris thank you
no because then ur being too materialistic and loving things that costs because you can love someone for nothing and love something for nothing if ur loving something that requires money than it is no more than a dream and not something that you love because if you need money to get it then you need money to keep it nuff said.
This track makes me bawl. Seeing Isaiah have this wonderful day with his son reminds me of me growing up with my dad taking me to the OC, NJ shore. He never had much money but the money wasn't really important because to us kids being in a cool ass place was enough and just living life was enough. That's what this video reflects to me. A struggling father who is just trying to do the best for his child. It's beautiful and real.
Me too, I'll wait as long as it takes, as long as its a quality release. Artists these days need to realize that. No rush. Take your time, put the passion into it when they have their minds right.
SpaceWaffle this is isaiah standing up for all the isaiahs out there I spell my name the same as his it annoys me that some people think there is 1 way to spell isiah or isaiah or etc.
Tbh, the vibe on this project was cohesive throughout listening. Play this in the whip on a road trip and just vibe. Love it! BUY the album if you fucks with Isaiah, forreal.
Every time I come back to this video, I come back with a different perspective. At this point in life, I realize why parents are so attached to the memories of their children in their younger years. Because that’s when you have somebody who so pure and innocent, loves you for who you are. You have a little buddy, and they just wanna spend time with you and genuinely love you for you. As we get old, our views become shaped and molded mostly by life depending on how strong your mind is and it can only be so strong in a premature state. We begin to see things different and at times people see their parents or whatever different until they finally get old enough to appreciate them and everything they have done and do. Now that isn’t always the case, and there are other reasons parents cherish their babies younger years, but that’s just where I personally am in life so I see that in this video. You got a mini you that will always love you, so you feel like I don’t need much else in this world but my little buddy. Hence Isaiah saying “if I can pay my bills, I’m good”. If he can take care of him and his child then he’s at peace with life and has everything else he needs, life is what you make it. I’m big on purpose so of course I’ve looked at this video in other ways and will come back and see it differently, but these are my thoughts right now, on simplicity and genuine love.
Thanks for sharing, that was deep and I appreciate people with depth I've had enough surface level bullshit to last a lifetime and there are more important things to discuss than the weather... You do your gender a credit, you're the kinda guy younger kids should look up to with these thoughts in your head. The powers that be try to convince us that money = happiness when that is so far the truth, I'm glad other people see through it too.
Glad to see a video for this 'cuz it's my favorite track on the album! Great message to this one, too. It reminds me of the scene from Half Baked when Thurgood is out on the date trying to stretch his money.
It's not bad but I definitely prefer Cilvia Demo. No artist can please everyone with every album though and I see a lot of his fans are enjoying his new one.
This song hit diffrent when you're young and single father strugling to pay your own bills, and give your son a life that you always wanted, maintainig the ballance between what he want, what he deserve and what's worth! I hope we make it one day!🙏❤
Even if you don't got a dollar in your pocket, you can still be there for your kid and be a good father.... I think that's what the message in the video is..
you can... to be a good person, caring dad absolutely, but it's important to lay some foundation so the kid sees its worth to strive for something in life and always feel safe and let him understand he has a backbone no matter what.
oldnbaschool totally agree with what you’re saying as well and not to disagree with you but I think the message is to never abandon your kid even for financial reasons
Yes and finding the message in the bottom of the bottle is probably the realization that it's time to grow up instead of throwup. Then saying your son is coming up would be deciding to learn from it and become better. You wouldn't have just a dollar in your pocket if you didn't drop it on a bottle, a bag, or whatever. Pay your bills and give that cobra money to your kid. And find your happiness in that instead And yo kid would gain perspective from doing so.
I do want to say tho he makes no reference to him having a kid in the lyrics you've only gotten from the video. He says mama, could be his or his baby momma and he's says your son is coming up. He could just be talking about getting out of the perpetual nothingness that comes with growing up in the hood and not giving into the lifestyle anymore. Heaven isn't just at the bottom of the bottle and then telling his mom her son is finally coming up.
Here to support Isaiah Rashad, his music got me through some dark times. Here to support him through this dark time 🙏🏽 keep writing, you are truly blessed.
Exactly especially this song right here i remember the feeling it gave me right after where u at i was just sitting there bobbing my head like "yup isaiah finally back!"
I'm still bumping Blank Face everyday and now this masterpiece! Soulo better release by the end of this year otherwise Top is gonna catch these hands lol.
i cried so many nights to isaiah rashad. its almost like it cleans my soul. makes me release all my pain and stress. i feel so much emotion in his music. you aint nothing but a baby. your fear is growing up. GOT DAM
Used to bump this shit when I was dead broke, still struggling but holy shit has shit gotten better and man did this video help me feel better back in the day.
This song came out when I was 16, was a big part of my life when change was rampant , I am forever in remembrance of this song , I hope all of you have an amazing life
This is one of the most powerful videos I've ever seen from 2016. It gives a feeling that can't be described with anything other than 'bliss'. When you realize that you have so much more than your credit score and the numbers in your bank account or the paper and pieces of metal that clink in your pockets, there is a certain clarity that allows you to see the world and the people around you for who they really are. If only the rest of the world could experience this clarity then maybe we would know peace.
I never bought an album ever... At least not on Itunes... When this came out on friday I was addicted by saturday and bought the shit out of it on sunday I don't think I ever spent my money better Bump up
What I specifically like about this music video is that it wasn't shot with closed piers or anything. I love the reactions of people, adds a lot to it. Infact often I blank out the music and just watch the video in full screen, not very many music videos that'll interest you enough to do that. Well played Isaiah.
The first time I saw this video was my introduction to Isaiah Rashad and I related so hard because I was BROKE. Now I'm back after checking out his new song and it feels good to have some money from working hard on myself and look back on those rough times. Music is beautiful how it can take you to different times and places no matter where you are.
I love this video so much! I couldn't help but smile the entire time, the interaction with the child (his son?) is priceless and the fact that they have everyone's account balance over their heads shows how ridiculous it is that we place superficial worth on people based on their monetary standing. Honestly, the best joys in life cannot be bought and we could all be gone tomorrow, so why not find something to appreciate in this little time we have here now? Thank you TDE for yet another Great work of art.
Damn been listening to this song sense day 1 and now its already 2021.... "You aint nothing but a baby your fear is growing up" Edit almost 2023 i just turned 22 and still listening sense i was 16.. Huge inspiration to music where did you go isaiah..🙃🌴🍄
Just turned 22 too and that line has always been the one that stuck out most to me too! Give him time, I respect his process (because we end up with amazing music) so if it takes time I’m cool with that. I’m sure he’ll drop something (relatively) soon and it will be our most listened to project by miles yet again.
The first time my friend heard this song, he went mad, moved to the Amazon rainforest and joined a tribe. He became a hunter for a while and lived off tiger meat that he hunted with spears he made from the trees, now he's a big time coke dealer and designs missile targeting systems for the RAF.
we are the 09/22/2017 my son just birth 8hours ago the 1st song he heard was this one ! this mean nothing for you but for me that was one of the best moment of my life
your missing the point of the video and the song. the message of the video and song are you dont need money to be happy. Zay and the kid he's with are having fun together even though they are dead broke.
Andy Sutherland What makes you think I missed it? I could obviously see that from watching the video. I just said that as a joke because it's funny to see someone be in so much debt yet walk around like they don't even have the problem to begin with. You know, like when comedians casually joke about how broke they are even though the situation is as serious (if not more) as they portrayed it to be? Yeah, I got it. Just felt like making a joke.
David Guerra some of us don't have the cash. I'm just a teenager man, if I could go out and buy it I would, but I don't have money like that. That don't make us "lames"
I live at the shore, but I still get so much anxiety around crowds like on the boardwalk. To watch you make a music video and just not give a fuck. Enjoying time with your loved one. Nothing and no one else matters of what they think or say if they even do which they usually dont. I know a lot of times it's just me vs myself using others as ammunition to jeopardize my own good time cause of my subconscious self hate that I haven't had the courage to face yet. Love your music.
Yeah as long as he doesn’t sell out should go independent. Cause if he went to major label they would want him to do what they want him to do not his own shit that he likes to do!!
I remember my freshman year of college. Didn't want to be there at all. Was scared to bet on myself Playing this album and blonde helped me get through that tough time. Thank you
I first heard this song along with the video when it released back in 2016. It’s now 2024 & I now have two boys. Watching this vid again for the first time in awhile put me in a serious nostalgic state as I feel like its the first time i heard it again. My heart is filled with joy reflecting back to that point in time & the fact I’m still here. Time is precious man & it flies by, enjoy every moment you got. Peace & love everyone.

The song is amazing, but there's a small veil of sadness in it that just makes me think. This song brings a really interesting laid back vibe as well.
sunny "small veil of sadness" did you even listen to the song lol
It's actually depressing when you think about the lyrics. I was mostly referencing the vibe it brings and the instrumental.

Him finessing that date is and will always be legendary
This song hit diffrent when you're young and single father strugling to pay your own bills, and give your son a life that you always wanted, maintainig the ballance between what he want, what he deserve and what's worth!
I hope we make it one day!🙏❤
if i can pay my bills im good...
Nothings changed, we stand with you Isaiah 🔥🤝💪🏼🐐❤️
gawk gawk
This video made me cry. Had to wipe my tears with my glock
Uhh😂
Lmaooo
weak af
Lmaaaaooooo
on some Famous Dex shit lmfao

+Felipe azul boooo
Even if you don't got a dollar in your pocket, you can still be there for your kid and be a good father....
I think that's what the message in the video is..
Angell Maciell and thats a true wealth
you can... to be a good person, caring dad absolutely, but it's important to lay some foundation so the kid sees its worth to strive for something in life and always feel safe and let him understand he has a backbone no matter what.
oldnbaschool totally agree with what you’re saying as well and not to disagree with you but I think the message is to never abandon your kid even for financial reasons
Yes and finding the message in the bottom of the bottle is probably the realization that it's time to grow up instead of throwup. Then saying your son is coming up would be deciding to learn from it and become better. You wouldn't have just a dollar in your pocket if you didn't drop it on a bottle, a bag, or whatever. Pay your bills and give that cobra money to your kid. And find your happiness in that instead And yo kid would gain perspective from doing so.
I do want to say tho he makes no reference to him having a kid in the lyrics you've only gotten from the video. He says mama, could be his or his baby momma and he's says your son is coming up. He could just be talking about getting out of the perpetual nothingness that comes with growing up in the hood and not giving into the lifestyle anymore. Heaven isn't just at the bottom of the bottle and then telling his mom her son is finally coming up.
Here to support Isaiah Rashad, his music got me through some dark times. Here to support him through this dark time 🙏🏽 keep writing, you are truly blessed.
he has some tought time rn ?
Even up to this day😌
hope the safety is off. 🥱
@@not..A..channel bru wtf
Amen me too
Bro I've been playing this a crazy amount since it came. It's giving me the same feels and vibes I got from Cilvia Demo. I love it.
yeah it's so dope
On repeat all day
+Xan Oku if you like zay you might like me. give me a chance? soundcloud.com/kaecae/sets/westwood-demo
I forever listen to Cilvia Demo, and this. Im very proud to say that Im 1 of the ACTUAL 1st who heard this whole al.
Exactly especially this song right here i remember the feeling it gave me right after where u at i was just sitting there bobbing my head like "yup isaiah finally back!"
Isaiah needs to drop a new album soon. The Sun's Tirade was such a solid project for me. His best so far tbh.
TheRealRedWolf Cilvia demo had a different vibe but it’s hard to say which one is better for me
THIB
timeless track, so crazy how the video is in slow motion but zay's still rapping in real time. dope cinematography
Joel wtf i just noticed
Omg
they speed the song up and they just rap it fast so they can slow it down and it's all on beat
Wtf I just noticed and I’m high af
Dave free made it i think he make most of the tde shit, he underated as a producer too
SPOTIFY PUT IT BACK BEFORE I CRASHOUT
l literally came to UA-cam to find it because they took it off Spotify and Apple Music. l am fucking PISSED!
Literally SAME 🙃🙃
RIGHTTTTTT
deadass
Facts
Met him in Chattanooga, where he’s from, spoke to him a little he was a genuine guy, he wasn’t rude or nothing took pictures with everyone! 📝📝📝
damn dawg musta be dope
Bro im in Chatt rn wish i coulda been there 😩
423
Met him in Cali. He showed so much love
This is what happens when three geniuses come together.
Isaiah + Director + cinematographer = great music video
+The cute kid
Juicea so we gonna forget the music producer?
I'm still bumping Blank Face everyday and now this masterpiece! Soulo better release by the end of this year otherwise Top is gonna catch these hands lol.
wtf I like to see that TOP is huge and buff af
Jay Rock has a album in the works to
😂😂😂
+MykalLamarthe2nd
soul turned in two projects when these days came out
+MykalLamarthe2nd I think it will be late 2016 or early 2017 because they said it was 80% complete.
Anyone here in 2024?
Mee
i am here every year lol
Ye
✋🏽
Yup
i cried so many nights to isaiah rashad. its almost like it cleans my soul. makes me release all my pain and stress. i feel so much emotion in his music.
you aint nothing but a baby. your fear is growing up. GOT DAM
Used to bump this shit when I was dead broke, still struggling but holy shit has shit gotten better and man did this video help me feel better back in the day.
This kid makes me smile every time I watch this. God bless the little don.
The visuals makes his track timeless
Lil bruh I s probably growin up by now
This song came out when I was 16, was a big part of my life when change was rampant , I am forever in remembrance of this song , I hope all of you have an amazing life
Can't stop listening to this
that's what this song does to you
CSM That's his music in general
Real rap
This is so smooth!
some one explain this too me
+General Raam the video or comment
the video
This is one of the most powerful videos I've ever seen from 2016. It gives a feeling that can't be described with anything other than 'bliss'. When you realize that you have so much more than your credit score and the numbers in your bank account or the paper and pieces of metal that clink in your pockets, there is a certain clarity that allows you to see the world and the people around you for who they really are.
If only the rest of the world could experience this clarity then maybe we would know peace.
i knew i wasnt the only one on shrooms watching this
Take a Xanax
We are PhZD shrooms are much better
Amen amigo .
For Wolf
who keeps coming back to this 7 years later
I never bought an album ever... At least not on Itunes... When this came out on friday I was addicted by saturday and bought the shit out of it on sunday
I don't think I ever spent my money better
Bump up
"Bump up" corny shit lol
no idea what that means... Honestly don't give a fuck listening to it r n
+Luka wtf does "bump up" mean lmao that shit was corny
+Furryballsploppedmenacinglyonthetable Inc. Bump the FUCK UP 👌🔥🔥💯 You corny nigga
+Luka doesn't that mean thumbs up?
Money doesn’t buy happiness, poverty doesn’t buy anything.
What I specifically like about this music video is that it wasn't shot with closed piers or anything. I love the reactions of people, adds a lot to it. Infact often I blank out the music and just watch the video in full screen, not very many music videos that'll interest you enough to do that. Well played Isaiah.
Man this song speaks to me on a whole another level. “if I can pay my bills I’m good.”
Fact!
That’s All Most of Us Want To Do.
Just Pay Our Bills, And Enjoy Life.
Isaiah Rashad is one of the influences that keep me holding on, thank you....
This song would never die............. Just found this in 2019.
The first time I saw this video was my introduction to Isaiah Rashad and I related so hard because I was BROKE.
Now I'm back after checking out his new song and it feels good to have some money from working hard on myself and look back on those rough times. Music is beautiful how it can take you to different times and places no matter where you are.
The sun’s tirade is one of the best albums to ever be made
I love this video so much! I couldn't help but smile the entire time, the interaction with the child (his son?) is priceless and the fact that they have everyone's account balance over their heads shows how ridiculous it is that we place superficial worth on people based on their monetary standing.
Honestly, the best joys in life cannot be bought and we could all be gone tomorrow, so why not find something to appreciate in this little time we have here now?
Thank you TDE for yet another Great work of art.
Also he presumably gave his kid his last two dollars
+finnedpeach and he lost the 2 dollars to only realize they didn't need the soda to have a good time
my dude you could not have said it better
i like what you said .
Rasar Amani
This was fucking dope, autumn vibes gonna be the best
warm and cool
+NegroMagnus gonna be bumping his album in school all day everyday
+Marlon Harris word
prefect album for a rainy day
stop talking about autumn we're still in summer
This makes me wish I had a father or a son... Salute to real dad's
D Thomas Williamson that’s an actor tho. Not his kid.
Jay Anderson i prefer not reply..
@@Jay-ue2ic your very fucked good luck in life
@@yacinekcl you did why?
17 of my people I appreciate you all
Real tune. It speaks to all of us struggling and just trying to enjoy life. Praise ya'll.
Shoutout to the guy who produced this, FrancisGotHeat, dude is hella underrated
God bless him
how you figure out who made it? I been searching for so long. Shout out to him.
name a good current producer who isnt under rated :)
Pharrell, Kaytranada, Mike Will Made-It, etc
metro boomin, 808mafia
Best TDE music video ever in my opinion
have you seen john muir?
+General Maudy lol what he sid☝
+General Maudy that's probably the best TDE video
Yeah fam, that's soo good. I still feel this a bit more that's just me
Christian Forbes naw its cool i was just wondering bro
this video hit home.
thumbs up
I probably played this song 20 times in the past 30 days.
This song hit so close to home its like he said exactly how i feel and would have said
Damn been listening to this song sense day 1 and now its already 2021.... "You aint nothing but a baby your fear is growing up" Edit almost 2023 i just turned 22 and still listening sense i was 16.. Huge inspiration to music where did you go isaiah..🙃🌴🍄
Love how you come back to edit! Hope you‘re doing good
@@KG-eg1sg 💯💯💯💯
Just turned 22 too and that line has always been the one that stuck out most to me too! Give him time, I respect his process (because we end up with amazing music) so if it takes time I’m cool with that. I’m sure he’ll drop something (relatively) soon and it will be our most listened to project by miles yet again.
This song just changed my life
Bless you. :)
same
The first time my friend heard this song, he went mad, moved to the Amazon rainforest and joined a tribe. He became a hunter for a while and lived off tiger meat that he hunted with spears he made from the trees, now he's a big time coke dealer and designs missile targeting systems for the RAF.
Same
we are the 09/22/2017 my son just birth 8hours ago the 1st song he heard was this one ! this mean nothing for you but for me that was one of the best moment of my life
Droppy very happy for you!
Respect
Right on
That’s sick man, it’s it’s cool that the vid is Isiah rashad and his kid and this is now a special track for you and yours now too
Thats amazing af man
I like how a bunch of these people are walking around stress free like they're not thousands of dollars in debt.
your missing the point of the video and the song. the message of the video and song are you dont need money to be happy. Zay and the kid he's with are having fun together even though they are dead broke.
Andy Sutherland What makes you think I missed it? I could obviously see that from watching the video. I just said that as a joke because it's funny to see someone be in so much debt yet walk around like they don't even have the problem to begin with. You know, like when comedians casually joke about how broke they are even though the situation is as serious (if not more) as they portrayed it to be? Yeah, I got it. Just felt like making a joke.
+Andy Sutherland Hold that L fam
It's because in Southern Cali everyone out here is always high and broke because we spend all our money on dank ass weed.
why stress? cause "they" tell u to 😂😂😂
Happy five years man, this shit got me through a lot
word
Kept me on my hustle
Zay the truth. And if y'all didn't buy his album y'all lames.
I'm sayin'. Copped that shit 12 on the dot. Been blastin' it non-stop. People lookin' like wtf you listening to lol
David Guerra some of us don't have the cash. I'm just a teenager man, if I could go out and buy it I would, but I don't have money like that. That don't make us "lames"
Allen Jimmerson In then the majority of Zay fans are teens.....
David Guerra
While the other rappers make clips with lots of money, this one does not have any, I was surprised.
Le GURI yup just a classic vibe 😌👌
welcome to the true essence of what its about...the message
Debut albums are usually like that. Hopefully success doesn't control him and put him into that category
for sure this album is the album for the year so far.
Anderson.Paak - Malibu might have something to say about that
droopy562 oh nawww. that's a good album, but this shit is dope.
Paak has way more variety in sound imo
the healing component from mick jenkins was first for me and this was a close 2nd for 2016
Now I think Tribe Called Quest's album is my album of the year.
Just turned 20 yesterday and honestly as I get older I start to understand this song more and more
Makes May life so easy so calm, everything relax.
Godzilla had a fucking stroke trying to read this
Damn this shit wavyy
I live at the shore, but I still get so much anxiety around crowds like on the boardwalk. To watch you make a music video and just not give a fuck. Enjoying time with your loved one. Nothing and no one else matters of what they think or say if they even do which they usually dont. I know a lot of times it's just me vs myself using others as ammunition to jeopardize my own good time cause of my subconscious self hate that I haven't had the courage to face yet. Love your music.
real ones never switchin up on zay. keep livin ya life n doin you all that matters is that u bring the heat
Isaiah is the light Ab is the dark ... I don't care what anyone say you can easily see the contrast
H Bizzle I agree. My friend hipped me to the spiritual eye behind what Ab spits about. Def had to chill on him.
Lant Lewis the thing is he didn't have to go that route
H Bizzle Right. I really don't understand how Kendrick still rocks with it, honestly.
Lant Lewis what yu mean cuh? Fill me on, haven't really listened to Ab soul that much
Jairo Marquez The album "Do What thou Wilt" is based off of the religion "Thelema". It deals with black magic and witchcraft.
I hope he makes a video for Wat's Wrong. That song could blow up.
Tity and Dolla too
Stuck in the mud
Outro
Park is fire 💯🔥🔥
i think wats wrong is next
Been listening to The Suns Tirade consistently since it’s release. A classic imo
Seth Games same
Fucking facts
same here bud
true wealth is contentment. release aspiration and practice gratitude, watch as the numbers climb insignificantly
This album was definitely worth the wait! Good quality and well put together! Zaywop too dope!
What has travis scott have to do with anything
+duck i replied to the wrong comment oops
yeah i feel it fam
most underrated rapper on tde
Verlyn Cruz him and rock
Verlyn Cruz you know whats up.
Isaiah is still slept on...damn he gonna blow up one day tho!
Ty Lamb when he releases his fucking album
15 million views is not slept on tho
Yeah as long as he doesn’t sell out should go independent. Cause if he went to major label they would want him to do what they want him to do not his own shit that he likes to do!!
I remember my freshman year of college. Didn't want to be there at all. Was scared to bet on myself Playing this album and blonde helped me get through that tough time. Thank you
TDE killing it...
Got shit on complete smash!!
both of his albums have literally been classics
Isaiah needs more love in the hip hop community! this songs AMAZING!
I first heard this song along with the video when it released back in 2016. It’s now 2024 & I now have two boys. Watching this vid again for the first time in awhile put me in a serious nostalgic state as I feel like its the first time i heard it again. My heart is filled with joy reflecting back to that point in time & the fact I’m still here. Time is precious man & it flies by, enjoy every moment you got. Peace & love everyone.
