Shing02 is an amazing rapper. I love how he's been so culturally exposed and it shows through his lyrics. This guy lived in England and Tanzania before coming to the States. Also, he lives in Oakland!!!! So cool to have a guy like this reppin' the Bay Area!
One of my favorite songs to listen to back in the day. It's still relevant, even today. Thanks to Nujabes, Shing02 and many others for teaching me the meaning of "In La'kech" long before I actually knew what it meant.
The world was almost at peace 10 years ago! Now look what happened to it today! This song gave me hope for my generation, for the people, for the global citizens, only for them to submit to fear, to turn against each other, all for what? Words? Opinions? Ideologies? Perspective alone? *_I'll never let the pain, the darkness determine who I am._* And if that's how the rest of you are, then *_I will never be you._*
Interesting song! This song should be used in AM and BW vids or something. I will be honest, I never thought I'd hear a song like this coming out of a Japanese guys mouth. Nice.
for the little amount of people who arent completely dull i commend you. Shing02 tells the world but they dont get it or dont listen. with high hopes it will reach "some" people.
damn usually only blacks usually make a flow about other blacks being beautiful i recall the last rapper to do that was tupac. but the first person outside of the black race to make a flow about blacks being beautiful is Shing02??? i mean i heard a few of his flows such as F.I.L.O., the Luv Sic (all 3),Lift the fog, etc but this is entirely different. real talk he has my respect. Shing02 earned that respect by making beautiful music
@GGDrooid actually rap was made in Mexico along ass time ago its just that it really didn't have a beat like today so no one really thought of it as rap just because of the way it sounds
You should be happy that you are who you are rather than belittling yourself. Im a fourth white and i feel that you should do your best to improve yourself and love yourself as you are.
I think that Blacks and Asians can connect with each other. I enjoy both asians and black music I am teaching myself Japaneses. I think that in the south there is a lot of stereo type from both race about each other that they are scared to talk to each other. I have hair the stereo type am I do not agree with any of it. It is the same about Mexicans I love all races
Honestly, I don't know why this video's comments are fulled of arguments and ignorant people. A lot of people in every race are unpious, get over it. If you're not going to do anything in the name of peace and justice then turn the other cheek and go on with your lives. If you're listening to Shing02 and consider yourself a fan, then you wouldn't be stemming arguments from one of his songs. As the Man himself said, "Spread love CC: the whole society". Words of wisdom, soak it in. Sheesh.
@TheKittymix Hi,i am japanese.that is true but there is no racism or discrimination,i think.they just dont feel black people familiar to them very much yet.excuse my poor English.
Hip-hop/Rap originated in the U.S. Blacks in the U.S. lost almost all African roots, to say rap is African is like saying Rock music is African, considering blacks started that too.
Black hair, black eyes, black soul, black skin...one day, since history has well taught us, the human race will be one skin tone. Then we'll find another reason to fight...religion will still be around?
I'm asian and im just gonna be honest we don't like black not because we are racist, but it is human beings we tend to chose the people who is more whiter becuase it is looks clean. and like what I said it is human being and has proven by the psychologists.
Well you don't appeal to the common denominator either- that's for sure! :) Oh, and um, I don't need to "appeal" to the common denomenator, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, I'm happy appealing to my boyfriend, and my family. :) But of course I doubt you care. Oh well!
Its all good dude...i know where ur coming from but Hate creates more hate, and we have too much of that in the world, it really wasnt supposed to be this way.
you know what??? i've seen many asian girls with black guys but i still have not seen a asian guy with a black girl my cousin has though ...... just a random saying
Rap and hip hop was created by African Americans in ny get your facts straight do the research of the four elements to hip hop, and the first dj. Y'all always argue about who did what frist when it comes to creation and blacks. Leave it alone unless you have proof.
I found an old CD of mine with this song. Great to see it’s on UA-cam.
Shing02 is an amazing rapper. I love how he's been so culturally exposed and it shows through his lyrics. This guy lived in England and Tanzania before coming to the States. Also, he lives in Oakland!!!! So cool to have a guy like this reppin' the Bay Area!
I love my japanese brothers & sisters as well, good looks shing02!
1 love world wide, judge by character not color!
man thats beautiful! an asian man giving props to blacks..BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL YALL!
Black hair is beautiful :)
Asian unity.
One of my favorite songs to listen to back in the day. It's still relevant, even today.
Thanks to Nujabes, Shing02 and many others for teaching me the meaning of "In La'kech" long before I actually knew what it meant.
he speaks the truth...and the the whole song is just perfect...lyrics and beat. sounds like reggae and jazz ^^
本当に素晴らしいわ
日本人のコメントが全然無いのが悲しいね
最近の差別問題からこの曲を思い出して来ました！
I respect black people＆culture.
I love this guy! Thank you Shing! I'm so sick of the racism and stereotyping!
Thank you for making this song bro !!
Shing02 is one of the best.
The world was almost at peace 10 years ago! Now look what happened to it today! This song gave me hope for my generation, for the people, for the global citizens, only for them to submit to fear, to turn against each other, all for what? Words? Opinions? Ideologies? Perspective alone?

What if this is the future for black people and asians. This would be so cool.
@duckirby To be fair, he did spend some of his youth living in Tanzania.

@TheMarkSasuke64 that's awesome xD
Re post I really think that both races can come together as I said before I love learning about the Asia culture and I am black.
can i find somehow the beat?
I think everybody should like everybody
black and asians ftw
@no2facism: Any color combination is beautiful.

ASIA, AFRICA, UNITE
No race, just human; imperfect
How bout you?
@xXF3LiCkZXx All the best music is!!
@TheKittymix Hi,i am japanese.that is true but there is no racism or discrimination,i think.they just dont feel black people familiar to them very much yet.excuse my poor English.
Marcus Garvey - Burning Spear :D
@SeanShannohan
Shing02 is underground xD
@TheKittymix yeah,i think so,too.
to begin with, they should respect their own culture.
👍❤️
i feel intelligence from him
i thought he was raised in Oakland Cali...
eh but i still think the whole song is good...imma check out that song right now
yeah I'm not black but my homecountry is in Africa too.
my song

Asians are also beautiful. I'm black and I love Asia.
Well you don't appeal to the common denominator either- that's for sure! :) Oh, and um, I don't need to "appeal" to the common denomenator, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, I'm happy appealing to my boyfriend, and my family. :) But of course I doubt you care. Oh well!

anywaysnCalif is where you see blacks and Asians connecting
@zanpaktuh im black and l love you even with all your hate :) peace and love
My last girl come from Vietnam

Black is Beautiful. Everyone is Beautiful. The only ugliness comes from some bad/ignorant people.
Its all good dude...i know where ur coming from but Hate creates more hate, and we have too much of that in the world, it really wasnt supposed to be this way.
@matics28 crowd*
asian and black is a good mix preferbly japanese
he sounds like the opposite of DMX from that song like PITCH BLACK HAIR.
you know what??? i've seen many asian girls with black guys but i still have not seen a asian guy with a black girl my cousin has though ...... just a random saying
Hahah now that i think of it, i can see Shing(0h)2 having a black GF and a half black kid lol
i can see shing02 w/ a black chik hahahah jk
shit i feel ya isnt shing half black half nippon?(japanese)
Do not make any excuses to yourself, you know everything you said is not a facts but just simply your imagination.
Rap and hip hop was created by African Americans in ny get your facts straight do the research of the four elements to hip hop, and the first dj. Y'all always argue about who did what frist when it comes to creation and blacks. Leave it alone unless you have proof.
So, I guess he never got his dream....
@Nblood1992
I wasn't being funny? Hence the use of the phrase "not to be funny but.." sheesh dude wtf.
@zanpaktuh This fails on so many levels of logic I can't even.
