Everytime I listen to Dave I think "there's no way he can keep this up" Wrong. He just delivers. The bars, the flow, etc. Just on point every time. You can just hear the maturity and honesty in his voice. Absolute 🔥🔥
Such a good concept aswell. Tells the story of how his life has changed since his 19th birthday. Not only with the start where it went from “I spent my 19th birthday in the hospital” to “I spent my 24th birthday with the people I love”, but also the maturity and confidence in his voice and delivery🐐
The amount of mention he gives to god and religion in this breeds maturity, rather than being spiteful like in my 19th birthday, he is reasoning with his problems. Levels
Nah literally. Every song on UA-cam has their fanboys and people chatting shit to hype the artist but I genuinely think Dave’s the best in the world right now. If someone can point out anyone more talented I’ll listen, I haven’t seen it yet though
@@biggiesmalls3096 idk bout best in the world, I believe he is definitely in the conversation but Kendrick is incredible too. Then again people like different types of music I’m gonna assume we here like lyricists but some only like the vibe. But yeah Kendrick is great too
@@tyronesmith800 ya that’s a good shout actually, Kendrick is my favorite us rapper with jcole. But also someone could look at this and have their own opinions, very subjective. Dave blows me away because of how young he is and still seems self aware and humble with all the fame and money he has. That’s what I like about Kendrick and Cole too.
You missed an insane bar at the end. He said: “Did twenty-seven countries in under nine months So when the most high says my time's up, just tell Him that I tried.” It’s a mathematical bar. Tried= Tri= 3. 9x3= 27. He “tried” because he did 27 countries in 9 months.
Could also be flipped Did twenty-seven (27) countries under (divided) nine (9) months. So when the Most High says my times up, just tell Him I tried (Tri a prefix meaning three …….27/9 = 3)……Dave is a mazza
Dave is built different, uses a subject to display his talent for such a great purpose. With psychodrama, using a platform to discuss mental health issues as well as others using such songs like ‘Lesley’ which in my opinion is one of his greatest songs he’s done, he’s such a powerful influence on young ones and to see him do so much good when he’s gone and going through so much pain is inspiring.
@@owi7326 so in football or soccer bro a cam is a attacking midfielder and he goes into to little pockets of the pitch to creat space, to shoot or to pass. That’s the reference to his bar cam is a reference to his piece lol
Santan dave atm has to be among the talks of the top 5 artist globally..no cap. He is just too good and the beat to this song is an absolute bomb 💯💣. 👍 Lee great break down.
I think the switch up at the end on the beat was foreshadowing what his next album might sound like, and seeing Dave hanging about with Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Tyler The Creator in recent times has me very excited ngl
drake is the gas one, completes the cycle we owe drake somewhat for what dave has gone on to do (the talent was always gonna show but the budget wouldnt be so huge without that early feature)
Dave is at the top for me, for tiiiiime. Just so polished and talent/wisdom/sophistication/intelligence/word play is levels above, especially for his age. Superstar.
okay hear this out. first he says ``my mom covered me in blood but it was coming from christ`` then in the next line he says ``Disaronno on the rocks, I pour a double with ice`` which is a a drink and obviously ice is a another word for jewellery, but then the line after that he says ``I take trips to wind down, I ain't readin' at night`` and wind kinda sounds like wine which is the blood of christ from the first line. Mad if you acctually think about it and understand when he says it. And i don't think it was all a coincidence since it's Dave.
Yo! Not many people caught his sneaky 'fish scheme' especially the 'life gave me lemons' part, "Salmon pink suit, I'm like De Niro in Casino Life gave me lemons, I gave you a branzino, and I seasoned it" - A Branzino is a mild white fish popular in Italian cuisine and usually roasted whole and served with LEMON! AAAAHHH MAAAAATE!
Poetry in motion… Every track Santan drops is like another chapter of his novel… the guy is absolutely 🔥, let’s enjoy this journey because he is far from finished!! Master @ Work!
Coming from Texas and listening to country music most of my life, I never really understood rap. Songs were mostly vulgar. Dave on the other hand, is SPECIAL. He has a storytelling ability very little, if any have ever had.
He is the UK Tu Pac. It's as simple as that. He is the full package and understands human nature just like Pac did. He shows his vulnerabilities and isn't scared to. And that's what makes him great. Not just flossing in every single song
If there's a place to listen to a new song for the first time, and it ends up being a reaction video, then it's on Leetothevi. Didn't even know he dropped but imma listen with you right now. That's fire. Let's go!
" Dave is an artist that studies the human condition ... " Perfect description . This song felt like a continuation of a couple songs off his last album . It's still a great song because of the subject matter , but it didn't feel like anything new . Great review as always ...
Artist formerly known as Dave 😁 Deep track. His Emotional Intelligence knowledge makes him stand out every time. I believe the cover is Dave and his Dutch Sheppard dog Bane (or influenced by him). Bane is personal protection trained so Dave has to hold him back.
The way he talks more about God and religion in this tune compared to previous/19th birthday shoes his maturity heightening- in combination with a deeper voice represents Dave getting older.
Did twenty-seven (27) countries under (divided) nine (9) months. So when the Most High says my times up, just tell Him I tried (Tri a prefix meaning three …….27/9 =3) 🔥 🤯

It’s more than rap, it’s spoken poetry. Dave done been on top for time, hard
THIS!!!
And he has been doing it since so young🤯🐐
Check out Saul Williams.
More than rap for sure 🤝🏾
Rap is an abbreviation for rhythm and poetry- but yes you’re not wrong
Everytime I listen to Dave I think "there's no way he can keep this up"
Wrong. He just delivers. The bars, the flow, etc. Just on point every time. You can just hear the maturity and honesty in his voice. Absolute 🔥🔥
it's like when is bro gonna run out of bars 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Literally what I was saying in my head
When your as good as he was at 16 its scary. He's moving towards being one of the best... Not best UK, best period.

Should've called the song The Growth cause boyyyy
@@ajh2675 faxxx been saying this
Dave is so clear that he can just drop a masterpiece of a tune with no promo and it will still do numbers💯🐐
When we talk about how good Dave is we need to compare him to the best in the world, not just the UK. Generational talent

Dave isn’t even the best in the UK so idk where you are getting best in the world💀. Ghetts is clear
@@nslizzy nah bro dont strech it, ghetts' lyrics and word play are the best but his music isnt that good

fucking hell, how tf u deep that
Whoa..
🤯
@Lostsouls he must’ve been in the room when Dave and drake were reasoning😂😂
Could also be flipped

Dave got me wishing he’d drop a song every day. This is all I want to hear.
Man just said “That 8 figures check wasn’t enough to convince me” 😵💫😵💫😮💨😮💨
🤯right! Makes me wonder, what does being signed mean anyway if Dave has managed all this and a world tour?!

Dave is the best in the UK and has been for time. Top 5 in the world imo🐐
That’s a great conversation 💯
Dave gonna retire the uk goat
“It can help you or harm you, depends on how you’re using the rope” my goodness Dave.
He is just toooooo cold🥶
Bro said “I ain’t a striker I’m a cam because it’s in the pocket” I stopped the track and did a 4k run bro fr too crazy man
Im dumb i dont get why its in the pocket
@@owi7326 so in football or soccer bro a cam is a attacking midfielder and he goes into to little pockets of the pitch to creat space, to shoot or to pass. That’s the reference to his bar cam is a reference to his piece lol
Hardest bar on the track imo

Kendrick? When did Dave meet Kendrick I didn't see this ! That's exciting. Can you send me a link
@@AndyMc1996 at the fashion show for Virgil that Kendrick was performing at, Dave is 3 seats down from him
@@barry4649 just checked and don't see him
Dave has developed him self uniquely from other artist in the UK, pure artistry and bars divides himself from everyone.
Dave is at the top for me, for tiiiiime. Just so polished and talent/wisdom/sophistication/intelligence/word play is levels above, especially for his age. Superstar.
you can't even compare him to anyone, he's in a league of his own. he is unique,! so talented!
Levi: Talking
Background Noise: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Dave is the best at storytelling. And that’s a fact💯
I was waiting for this reaction bro since the jam dropped 😂
😭😭😭🤝
Faaaacts... Was gassed when I saw it was uploaded
Love to lee for the work rate
Thank you my G 🙌🏾
Listening to this at 00:30 while reading the lyrics at the same time, bro!!!!

Best breakdowns of uk music 🔥

Yehh Dave has been my favourite for 5years+, I respect you can pick up on the little details
Greetings from NYC lee! Love your reaction and dave is my fav artist🎉

1:44 ; very well said. Exactly why I listen to your reactions ✔
dave is a m'fckn living legend !!... nuff said
Ambidextrous. When you’re fluent with both limbs. Either both arms or both legs.
This guy ain't just a rapper, he's a proper musician and artist
THIS IS A GENERATIONAL WORLD CLASS MASTERPIECE felt every bar in the heart and soul
Been blessed this month for fire art pieces from Dave and Abra 👏🔥
This song calms me down it’s unexplainable 💆🏾♂️
Just amazing, Dave just that dude
Been waiting for this 🙌🏻
He defo will be going down in history
Dave's operating at a higher level than most of our top 5's right now, went crazy on this one
So thankful to be alive in the time Dave drops these gems

Lee on high/high work rates and 99 vision the way he's seeing the bars
Stopped everything to listen to this Dave tune🔥

Hey Big Man SALUTE from MOSCOW!

Not watched you for a while lee but glad I did 👍 brilliant reaction brother
Nah Dave is a living god he is so good
" Dave is an artist that studies the human condition ... "
Perfect description .
This song felt like a continuation of a couple songs off his last album . It's still a great song because of the subject matter , but it didn't feel like anything new .
Great review as always ...
Oi, it’s mad cause Dave’s 24 now, only seems like yesterday when my 19th birthday cake out, and also that freestyle he did at 16
Hes just something else, the black shakespeare
Dave is too slick with it man❄️🥶
The Batman/Killer Croc bar was mad
yeahhh ok this is elite 👌🏼🤯 big up lee
HAAHHAAHHA THAT DANM “ENGAGEMENT POST” DOUBLE ENTENDRE CAUGHT ME SUPER OFF GAURD CRIED LAUGHING MAN 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Good to see u my brother 🤝🏾
Dave flexing at the end 🔥😂
feeling this 💥
Gasseddddd
Dave can't teach us nothing. But he can help us think 🐐
Great reaction man as always 🔥
Great job bud! I can’t wait to see him in England in 2025!
Type of song u Got to listen to this at least 5 times to take it all in
Wheeel up the bloodclart ting
Subtle double meaning with ‘dust’ when you don’t have money….😏
Man said he “turnt down a 8 figure deal, but that’s the only time I turn down a 16” what’s he saying? They try sign him for 16 MILLION😤😤😤😤😤
Might have to call him davezinho the way he does anything on his field of work
Hard 😤
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ghana boys are the best!!!
Goated fr fr
Undefeated
Idk why but this beat gives me this weird feeling that nothing else gives me
Modern day Shakespeare.💯
i feel like nobody can say a bad word for this topboy
Man’s a genius
dave really gave santan a verse at the end
dont think anyone would deep the "ends" bar at the start if it were a small artist or not an artist renowned for wordplay
He's up there with the Kendricks and Cole, nobody in his generation is close to him.
Need that new Clavish reaction - keep up the cold vids 💎
Dave Is different level keep up the great work ethic god blessed you 🙏❤️
🐐🐐
I always feel dumb listening to Lee react to Dave 🤣 moving like an English professor analysing these songs
Long shot here but... please get round to Avelino - Magic
need to react to in disguise by bakar and aitch
His 24th birthday was June 5th
