Beyond his years the way he conducted himself in this interview.
Mixtape Madness man like mixtape madness
Mixtape Madness can I interview you for my show?
Trap God where is the info to back that up?
look how you lot are arguing amongst yourselves over the dumbest statement
Check my track
Dave's mentality alone will take him to heights
thats garbage holy fucking christ delete that garbage
S Am no, he's a sensitive bitch, he can't take criticism
Yep
lord of high frog's He’s getting more money than u bitch stop hating get a life you virgin
2 years later, his album peaked at number one on the billboard.
This interview was slightly cringey simply because the youngest person in the room bought the most mature content.
Airmericanz!
yea so true. also because of their lack of knowledge about how it is in the uk. cant go to south london.....behave.
@@charliepitchley4965
Yeah, Americans are often way too comfortable being ignorant (and not knowing that) about other countries. If you are going to have an interview with somebody from Europe, would be wise to look up at least the basics about their country first.
Weird interview
Dave shouldn't bothered going on this interview
5:55 'You mean soccer?' Nah cuz he meant football
XO Gang football idk ppl in the us call American football when they don’t use their feet to play they use their hands to throw
Ivan Gutierrez Because American football is based off of rugby football. That’s why.
American football should only go by '' rugby''
@@StylistecS no one calls rugby 'rugby football'
JC Denton of course not but rugby is part of the football code. Also, rugby just caught on more than just plain football. But it’s all football because you play on foot.
I can't believe he's 18. So wise beyond his years and speaking so much truth.
He's from the UK....nuff said
Na even with the UK he's different, and I respect that from him.
-South London born.
Na even within South London he's different, and I respect that from him.
-Streatham born
'Picture me' is full of truth, I was shocked too when I found out how young he was
Pete Long I LOVE listening to Akala speak! So well educated and articulated, his lyrics are like poetry! Incredible artist
Dave represented the UK well here
CJ77 keepin it real
Hope ppl see this not fucking 67
what's wrong with 67?
Cry6ix 14yr old on the corner with your hoods up music through your phones lad
think they from Chicago smh
"Drake this" "Drake that" got dave sitting there bored to hell
Drake boring af but best usa as lol
Feel like it's their way of trying to push his legitimacy to a USA audience
Americas biggest artist is Canadian
"mans a big man, mans tired" lol nah Dave repped UK well. Good kid
Oll
His Nigerian
@@iToldYou922 born in Brixton mate. He's English.
His Nigerian by blood... Check his surname
@@iToldYou922 Nigerian heritage maybe. By blood? That's some pseudo scientific racialism. Don't care what his surname is, he was born and raised in South London. He's as English as me.
man like dave. wasn't expecting this.
TeeJayy C wasteman
Adam this you? LOL
Same here, love his music but he's so on level it's good to see
Jay grime do you know where the Sam Jackson part is
I'm so glad to see one of the best uk artists getting some recognition in america loads of respect for hot97 for getting someone different on
Drake.
Playboi Chris 💯💯💯🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
S kay this is very stupid if people fuck with you they fuck with you
better thank drake
S kay nah if you're not in the U.K. You won't understand. This guy and aj will take grime to a new level
It's funny how the amount of rappers that come to hot 97 All you hear is purp lean girls cars jewelry and it takes a 18 year old to have a intellectual conversation you got guys like lil yachty and Kodak black who you Can't even get a sentence that makes sense out of them lol
I wouldnt group in Yachty with them. Ion fw his music at all but he seem like he fairly intelligent
Slave of Allah the popular American rap I agree. there's still A LOT of dope artists out there tho.
Slave of Allah get out of here with that bc with every lil yachty there is a chance
G Ry yachty ain't intelligent he just seems cool and not a dickhead
Fun fact lil yachty went to college
there was 1 man and 3 children in that room.
😂😂
Looooool frr
harsh truth😂😂
Thank more like Donuts 🍩 🍩
Wow, a lot can happen in a year. Seemed like the Blackbox freestyle was only yesterday. Massive respect to Dave, put in a lot of hard work.
One extremely intelligent man right here
LS KN i feel so educated rn
Have you seen how surprised they look?
LS KN who? Rosenberg?😂😂😂
Cos most Americans rappers sound like they have needs
How can some Americans be so ignorant to think the UK (London in particular) is soft or has no rough areas? Common sense should tell you that in any major country/city, there are good places & bad places
Michael bmt them American's piss me off sometimes some of them are way too ignorant
Init they need to start watching top boy on Netflix. Like soft who what what where how did we get right der? 😂
I don't get why Brits expect Americans to know so much about them and their culture. We're American not British what happens over there really dosen't matter over here.
yvmstr3 because you literally know nothing about any other countries but yourself , growing up in any other country your taught about other countries not everything but you know a fair bit so your not clueless
yvmstr3 maybe it's because we know wats going on around the world so maybe we expect the same from u especially because u have all the technology to do so.
this man did great as Modie in Top Boy
Yes, im American but I really appreciate everything he does artistically. He's quite talented
@@k1ng__wzrd655 he's very talented and well rounded off
Yes I loved his movie character that's why I was checking this out.
@@greeneyedlady8426 💯
Great interview Dave.
As for racism in the UK, years back they displayed "No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs" in windows. Racism isn't just an American thing, Samuel L is out of his mind.
Adam McKola yes adam
Watch all ft vids 👊🏼
Adam McKola can confirm. White don with Irish family here. Grandma told me she used to see signs that that in shops. One thing does need to be remembered though. Some whites were also on the receiving end of racism too. The Italian and Irish were as well.
SPizzle and Jews as well. Racism happens to all races, but blacks did/do really get the worst of it.
CGK Ty Jews are not a race it's a religion you need to go to Addis Ababa you'll find use their too and also in China
Just so disrespectful to invite a young man onto your radio show and then constantly talk about another artist, just because of the tenuous notion that drake recorded a verse on Dave's own track. Shouldn't you be really keen to learn lots about his childhood? His experiences leading up to this moment? They barely asked about his life in London, or his music...poor show by hot 97 here, missed a beat for sure.
Amen
nah this is a great interview they spoke on a lot of stuff other than Drake
Omg..100 percent agree typical american heads up there arse...drake didn't create top boy just added money to it..tio boy is uk ting..drake knows uk getting more relevant in America songs jumping on uk scene..he already done it with the music...UK rap more intellectual than us..us rapper talking about money related things and use the n word and bitches for women....I still dont get how u Americans use the n word
hele atkins bro there are plenty UK artists that use the same language
actually true,dave coulda sorted the samuel l jackons diss by explainig his life growing up in london,im from uk myself so know london is another ghetto,
Dave has wisdom beyond his age. We're proud to have him represent the UK. Best U21 artist in the UK imo.
this time in 5 years Dave will be bigger and richer than everyone in there combined

I dunno about 5 years. Do you know Ebros net worth, he’s been doing this when Dave was in nappys

Just Stop UK RAPPERS
OH HELL NAH Fuck I meant U.K. lol

Chris williams and @chakabars on instagram....basically THE UK IS LITTTTT
Daveeeee ❤ I'm so proud of him. Such a wise kid. About time some more UK artists are getting their shine. Listening from Toronto. 🙏🏾
He's mannerism is soo mature ; he put on for the UK
the difference between grime and hip hop is the Dance influence "house and Garage"
and the Jamaican soundclash culture
A Dope Point of View nah tbh the accent plays a big role in the difference between hip hop and grime
nah good point fam, the big garage and house parties in basements and youth clubs in the early 2000's had impact on grime like crazy fam
Lee O I here my dons point about HOUSE starting in Chicago if u really check it the sound/instrumental aspect of of grime house is its grandad. but the spitting aspect has jungle garage dancehall and rap influences
A Dope Point of View And (4×4) bassline music from sheffield was a huge influence for that early eskibeat sound that wiley made
Man like Dave
BRUH!! I feel like a proud mum seeing Dave on here! Big him up ina real life
😂👍
Ye Gyal!!
I have never rooted for any artist the way I root for this young man, being from south ldn it makes me proud he's come this far. Hope he makes it very far
He has indeed made it very far
They keep cutting him out mid sentence :/
Ebro and Rosenberg thinking that there will be hate in the comment section😂
But we're way more mature in the uk in my opinion that's why they were wondering how he's 18 but that's just how it is. Nothing but love from the uk for dave's movements and hot97 for the platform. Unruly
>UK
>Mature
lmao
yea we are mature i saw a 9 year old smoking on the bus

I think it's just some people underestimate the youth. Like i've had people speak to me from age of like 16 to now and they say i'm mature, but it's not a rarity. Just people need to open their ears more and speak to the youngers who actually do know what they are talking about.
People say a lot about being older means you have wisdom and experience, I just say it makes you outdated
Man like Dave uno. Mans my age and he's representing the UK on a major scale and getting big and I'm over here stressing about my A Levels lol. Big ups to Dave tho
Eden Hazard Did you get touched up in the academy by your coach?
How did ur A levels go bro?
Dude who did your a levels go? you in Uni now?
he's at madrid now fairplay

So much respect for Dave. He represented the UK rap scene nicely in this interview. Eloquent and well informed about his craft - humble and truly likeable! Keep doing it big! 🔥😍
It's mad how someone my age living just across the road is now doing interviews with Ebro. Big up my brudda Dave man, huge inspiration.

Honestly one of Hot97's best interviews. Hell best interview I've seen in a longggg time. Dave is gonna be BIG. Crazy word play & talks about shit everyone can relate to. The fact he's only 18 makes it even crazier.
The Trevor Noah argument is absolutely ridiculous. As an South African he knows racism to the core. Ever heard of him speaking about how his mother had to act like she doesn't know him on the street since he's mixed? Back then her relationship with his white father was illegal.
It just astounds me that some Americans (black or white) claim certain issues their own. That it's (here racism for instance) a unique experience NO ONE could ever comprehend. Hell, in Libya black refugees get in slaved in this very moment! It's so patronizing and saddening I don't even know where to start. Sometimes I wonder whether it's because of the huge ego many Americans have about their country or their education system.. however, Americans (not all, but many) need to check themselves.
Regards from Germany.
Yaniyani big facts. Ignorance at its finest.
Honestly it’s not even about that. I think it’s more so when you’re not from somewhere, the way in which you might see things is never going to be the same as someone who’s actually from there
lol germany
This interview is painful to watch. These people come off as so ignorant
most unexpected notification I've ever received. Shout to dave for repping us so well💯💯
From the whole of South London, thank you Dave.

I come back to this interview and watch it every few months. Dave is a legend in the making.
Grime is most definitely it's own genre! 10 years ago to the ignorant grime was considered to be a bunch of loud noise expelled by angry council estate kids. Now it's a culture! Makes man proud to be a Londoner 🇬🇧 Hold tight Dave
+DiMpZ LoNdOn. There is still a lot of that!....but within it, certain talent emerges out of the loud noise. I'm sure you would agree bro, many more people have no talent than have talent. Dave being an example of real talent.

Tbh that is one of the best interviews I have heard on any channel with any artist. You can tell Dave is a clever guy. Happy for him to represent our UK music in America and any where else in the world the. Gwarn Dave. 10 out of 10 bro!
Legit doing the UK proud Man like Santan Dave keep doing your thing man, you're gonna inspire the next generation the more wisdom you talking bro
This is a good watch been following Daves career for a minute, good watch. Love from New Zealand

Dave is so mature, way too much respect for him
Loving this. So big to see a UK artist in America really getting recognition and respect!
Americans can’t take that UK music doesn’t stem from America
It did though
It did but it Dave has taken his own. He didn’t have to show up here did he? is that what you’re saying fam?
@@voids9360 It never as Hip Hop was influenced from Jamaican Dance Hall. So even hip hop is doesn't have American roots it is Afro Caribbean just like UK rap is.
@@voids9360 Kind of and kind of not
@@rickyguthrie5532I think Hip-Hop comes from Dancehall and like 60s/70s soul/funk from the U.S. Since it literally started from scratching the instrumental parts from older songs. You could even go back to scat singing from Cab Calloway, Muhammad Ali's rhyming poetry delivery, or even Gil Scott Heron for influences on the vocal delivery. And Grime is like a combination of Dancehall, Hip-Hop and UK Garage (among other things). Idk why there's this debate over Grime being a direct offshoot of Hip-Hop because it's not. But obviously, there's some influence. London is multicultural, so there are many influences in the music genres coming from there.

This is an 18 year old boy from the ghetto in south London. You don't even know him or his story.
Man like Dave. Amazing interview, don't think you could have a better guy representing us.
This interview is anout everything BUT DAVE. These guys are concerned about what Drake is doing and what Drake has done for Dave rather than DAVE HIMSELF. Its frustrating to watch these young great British artists being bombarded with generic questions about London and comparisons to UK vs US rap. They asked dave GENEREAL rap questions rather than questions about the lyrics in his songs and his BLACKBOX which did more favours for him arguably than Drake as that initially put him on.
TheOneEverlasting you are actually sooo right
Exactly
Well said! 👏👏

It's HOT 97, this whole station trash.

there was a time when i would have NEVER have imagined seing people from my country, let alone the ends blow up and take their craft world wide, do you guys know what its like to see people you know are talented and gifted just flourish and become who they were meant to be, its beautiful man, when i see people like skepta, AJ Tracey, Dave, Dizzie etc take it world wde when i have been listening and supporting from the very start of their career, it feels me pride and joy, im so proud of these brothers, but its only the start of their journey, they must stay humble and maintain it now
Great, thanks Ebro and the team.....I literally learnt nothing about Dave from this conversation that I didn't already know...
I’m dying 😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
Dave is such a great artist. It's awesome that he has the amazing mind and the musical capabilities to really communicate his thoughts.
Big up yourself Dave reppin the UK and the lot down South in Streatham and Croydon. Great great interview, you know your stuff, very refreshing to see.
He handled that with so much Grace I genuinely thank God for his life I pray the man goes far & even surpasses his own expectations in life wow Dave. 👐🏽💥👏🏽👐🏽💥👏🏽👐🏽💥👏🏽😳
He did Ameen
He's deffo right about the uk not being London ....step outside those ends you will stick out like a sore thumb and you will deffo notice a difference in how people act with you
Dave is so articulate and smart. His musical talent is unquestionable, but the way he conducts himself is amazing for someone of 18, let alone someone who has the thing he has at that age.
looking at how far Dave has come 🥺 I’m so proud
big up hot 97 for having him on, love to see it
WOW Dave is killing it.
Big up Dave representing us well 🇬🇧
HOT 97 is trying with more variety of guests and new segments on the youtube. big up for featuring the UK artists
Love this. Salute, Dave 🙏🏼👊🏼💯
A bit stupid that people think that black brits don't face rasism. The only difference in America is that their is a lot of classism in the UK and blacks struggle to integrate to society

I was so excited to see Dave on this omg
When he started to talk about the beats yoooooo Dave makes us proud
they're pretty rude speaking louder and intercepting what Dave has to say after they even asked him for his opinion.
Don't know why South London has a bad rep. There's good and bad places all over London. Get to know
Dwayne3007 Lol South ain't poppin
Cuz of Peckham and Brixton beef
But generally speaking London’s pretty safe for geezers all over.
My man Dave doing bits 😎
Hot 97 is dope getting uk artist in and Rosenberg and ebro actually no what they talking bout was a good interview.
Grime is more so a subsidiary of Dance Hall and UK Garage music (evolved via the UK Dance music/hardcore continuum). The hip-hop influence is merely the fact that artist rap over a beat, however, the rap in Grime derives more closely from Dance Hall. IMO
Silas Gray we also can't forget that most of the first Grime MCs were originally Jungle MCs
@MisterZoe Yeah of course. It was a major influence on UK Garage music. Although as was, if not more so, UK Hardcore, Jungle and Drum'n'Bass < 3 genres which are authentically UK developed. Hence why I talk about the dance music continuum. I personally think the Chicago House influence was only a musical one and not entirely a cultural one.
Precisely!
spot on bruv.. even the way Grime MC's pass the mic is straight out of dancehall (via Jungle and Hardcore). if you listen to bits from back in the day and compare it to (US) hip hop from the same era you will see how different they are. Plus we had rappers in the UK directly influenced by US and they were on a very different wave from Jungle / Hardcore MC's
I suggest you read 'Last Night A DJ Saved My Life' by Bill Brewster. The book provides great insight into nightclub culture in the UK and US. From this, I believe it will prove the authenticity of UK nightclub culture and furthermore UK Dance music culture.
I have discovered first hand, Black people in the UK have created authentic scenes and culture. Afro-Americans started to build new cultures from the slave trade era, largely disconnected from their African roots. Over here, in the UK, significant cultures started developing from the Windrush Era. Don't forget, Bob Marley chose to move to London! Following that, Punk and Ska collaborated, again, significantly British cultures. Hybrids of dub were developed and celebrated here in the UK, following that we had Jungle and Drum & Bass. Ask the pioneers themselves, UK Garage (the underground sort at least) was birthed off the back of DJs playing Jungle and D&B 12"s at 33 instead of 45.
Please don't get me wrong, the UK does borrow and develop culture initiated in the US, but ultimately it derives from the lifestyles we live and have chosen to express and explore in authentic ways.
Great interview! Well done Dave 🤗
Proper interview big up dave doing things 💯
i knew about this nigga when he was doing freestyles on streetstarztv and bl@ckbox and now he's interviewing with peter rosenberg and ebro, damn.. more life for dave
Ebro shocked by this youngster's knowledge😮dave keep going cus
im from country dave and ive been routing for you since blackbox ...i get what your saying though racism is pretty thick down here ..but we aint all like that ..your an inspiration and i wish you nothing but blessings and peace ..good luck for the future and thank you for the music you create ...you stepped up when uk needed you the most ..
When you have this kind of mentalitity, it will take you place trust me, big up to Dave man nuff respect for this one.
I'm 21 from the U.S. and Dave seems more mature then all my friends my age, this MAN is phenomenal. He's exceedingly mature for his age, definitely doesn't seem like a kid.
