Definitely I say it all the time he's been out since well here in DC anyways since 2006 and probably mainstream since 2009. He's always consistent and always have a hit or 2 on each album.
Sample: Mississippi children’s choir “I’m blessed” we sang this song when I was younger in church I can’t believe wale sampled this 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 brought back memories
This was the comment I was looking for... she sung that song I listen to it EVERY morning ....🥰 I’m glad I’m not the only one who knows the sample song
@@mbaby3443 He was showing what happens in the real world but with the races switched. This way, hopefully it shines light on what really happens in our communities & hopefully this video brings more than just awareness to the situations we face
This music video evokes so many emotions that i could cry. The lengths we as Black people in the entire diaspora... the lengths we have to go through to get the world to open their minds and truly see life from our perspective, how we're treated, the way we've been disenfranchised, robbed of "what could have been", the microagressions and the upholding of systematic racism by so many in society. It's weird because although the roles are switched in this video, it's a reminder of our reality and how deep the rabit hole goes with this opression. I applaud Wale yet again for this piece of work. Just like "White Shoes" and "The Pessimist" and so many other records this shit stings but truly grateful the narrative exists.
This made me cry on so many levels! The pain was in the words definitely empathetic. So SORRY FOR YOUR STRUGGLE OF FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES CONTINUE TO FIGHT FOR THEM AS YOU ARE NAMASTE'

I remember listening to Wale.. growing up in PG County, MD... He was in a Go-Go band (Northeast Groovers if I remember correctly) but something about him.... I actually remember telling my best friend... "He's going to make it because he has something to say." Fast forward years later, with dreads and all, I start hearing his music. From my high school days until now (now 38yo) I have, from afar, watched this man grow up in his craft. Wale, don't stop what you are doing! I believe in you now just like I did back in the day! May the Lord keep shining down on you fam... Be Blessed!!
The fact that Wale has never won a Grammy tells you all you need to know about how the music industry is jacked up. So much talent. Lyrical genius. Makes a person think. But talk about some ass, drugs or shooting each other and it goes gold and get's nominated. SMMFH. This man is so gifted. We love you Wale.
My eldest daughter bid is almost over The entire video and song is beautiful and hits home I hope she appreciates seeing this realistic short movie especially the end. Thanks Wale
Speechless!! Wale always goes above and beyond with the message and delivery. REAL artistry and talent doesn’t always win awards whey they glorify the bullshit that holds a higher level of “entertainment!” Give this man his ROSES while still here🌹🌹🌹
CAN'T COMPLAIN WHEN WE (OF THE AFRICAN AMERICAN DESCENT) WATCH & SUPPORT OR GIVE MORE VIEWS & GIVE MORE ATTENTION TO THE ASS SHAKING, TWERKING & PRAISE TO THE BUTT & BOOBS BECAUSE OF A HOLLYWOOD "HOOD STYLE" GOT TO BEAT LIL KIM & KIM K WEST & CLERMONT TWINS ETC @ THEIR PROCEDURES & MAKEOVERS - @ LEAST I KNOW AS A TRANSGENDER WOMAN I ONLY DESIRE LASER HAIR REMOVAL & RHINOPLASTY & POSSIBLE AUGMENTATION BUT NOT FOR VIEWS & POPULARITY OF THE BODY OR TO GET A FAMOUS RAPPER TO GIVE ME THE D & SPILL THE TEA ABOUT IT FOR RECORD SALES
I have absolutely no idea how I’ve never heard of this young man but after only 5 or 6 songs, he has gained a new fan for LIFE!! Unbelievably talented🤘🏼
Whats crazy is even watching the roles being reversed I still felt uncomfortable seeing them go through what we go through, proving that its purely inhumane to treat us like that. And once we start getting upset and angry and protest like we're doing now, we get labeled as even more of a threat because we're not simply people that are TIRED, but we're "THUGS" !! Don't blame our reactions, BLAME THE PROBLEM !
I feel you on that It's the great deception of all time the one percent controls the narrative making us look like the aggressor's but we're the victims. Soicety has slowly but surely woking up and can the see lies and deceit
Omg I am speechless, he hit this one the head. There is no way he captures America in 7 minutes. All these subliminal messages that have been going on since the beginning of decades. “White goes first.” Mannn. He def need a Grammy for this. 🙌🏾

Kelly Price Always adds a sense of Rawness and real ness to every song she features on and performs. She doesn’t disappoint. This video was very poignant.
I want to thank you so much Wale I'm literally in tears thinking about the pain and sorrow this world is experiencing sitting in my car and right in front of me is a homeless man what about help all I can do is pray.
That ending is chilling. My husband was released early March due to the pandemic and being asthmatic. 2 days ago he was forced to go back to finish his sentence. Not because he did anything wrong while released, but because Black Bodies = $$$. If I knew that was the ending I probably wouldn't have watched because it has stirred something in me I can't ignore. This is our constant fear. I pray for that brutha and all the brothers and sisters everywhere. ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Im sorry to hear that and hate that that is all true to how they view us as cash cows. Prayerfully he's ok and God put that something in you for a reason, don't ignore it, stay vigilant and know nothing is by chance, you were meant to see it!!! BLESSING
WoW!! This visual is excellent and exceeded my expectations. Last year in Oct. 2019 I went on a backpacking trip through Europe. I had this on repeat whenever I had my earphones in. Plane, train, overnight bus, it didn't matter. Not only for the love of the song but I wanted this song to be directly correlated with that trip and give me flashbacks. As I seen for the first time of my life, black ppl from 8 different countries in 9 days. I was a bit upset when I didn't see a video for this masterpiece by Dec but it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT. Thank you Wale. You are appreciated.
The picture is suppose to be Robert Yummy.. It's alot of messages in this video.. Should win video of the year but we all know that's not going to happen.
This is from the interview he did when he locked up at Clinton Correctional Facility in NY, except everything is in reverse. Good catch on the Perish Crooks
Not everyone knows this, tho this is my first time here seeing this video, I’m ashamed of jus seeing The Chi, but seeing n hearing this song, shhhh I’m not only ashamed but embarrassed to not even hearing this song played on the radio, or advertised to listen to on here or other music mainstream apps. I came here frm watching the chi!!! We see all these stories on these shows, but they we’re inspired by true real life stories ppl experienced past and present, more sadly to say the future too bc WE AS AFRICAN-AMERICANS STILL HATING ON ONE ANOTHER,JEALOUS BC OF MATERIALISTIC THINGS ONE ENVIES, IGNORANT TO OTHER PPL OF SAME COLOR GOING THROUGH OR HAVE BEEN THROUGH SITUATIONS LOOKED AND FROWN ON. Instead of educating each other one by one on thing’s that some are illiterate too. I can give example: sickle cell disease is not funded enough and pushed to the forefront like cancer whn it’s also a terminally ill disease that affects African Americans.. stars like T-boz whn first made known after only having to explain why tours were canceled excessively due to her hospitalization came out thn spoke abt still only years later and still don’t use her platform to bring more awareness and fundraising for research, Lorenz Tate as well. Look whn Magic Johnson came out bk then. AIDS was and still is IMO frowned upon, but he brought more awareness to our ppl “like this is a deadly disease that is not being made aware of in OUR COMMUNITY “ if ur aware of it then u can live a long healthy life if taken care of. I’m also aware that things like this takes money money and more money, but pharmaceutical companies make money by suppressing all herbal medicines and more that are free to obtain, bc they will lose out financially. I believe those who who have a platform shld use it. If those who do have platforms aren’t touched by it in some way, then it dnt affect them. I believe if you truly care abt OUR PPL then try to understand wht others may be going through and be productive to help in anyway possible by asking wht can be done if you have that platform or opportunity to help, make a change for everyone not just self, God will continue to bless you and those who don’t believe in God’s power, but still have the opportunity to help a community, you do good and it will be rewarded by putting out good it comes bk to you. Sorry for such a long message but I felt after seeing so much pain and struggles,some good blessings, then the show “The Chi” just made it more aware of wht others go through reality for me, even though I’m a miracle myself dealing with sickle cell disease. I still see others go through other struggles that I have been blessed not to have gone through regardless of my illness. I will be healed and praying for everyone no matter the status or level each of us are on….🙏🏾 be humble and educate ourselves, the whole world too..
Nique Nique Word Queen, That’s For All Of Us Who preaches, Teaches, Sings, Or Raps positivity & productivity. Staying True In This Strange World Is a Display Of GREATNESS Fasho Tho ! Wale a genius
I'm blessed by Mississippi mass choir. I heard and had to sing it in 2000. And how wale brought it back. Watching the chi. Just know your blessed when you wake up in your right mind and able to use all your senses. That's a reason to say I'm blessed. Very creative wale Very creative. God bless you.
We are soulful ppl ✊🏾in a world ruled by soulless ppl...Father deliver us 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Wale is one of my absolute favorite artists, I have almost everything he's ever created in my library and this song I still play like it just came out but I've never ever seen this video and it's a masterpiece. I literally can't move; this video is chilling...I'm shook at the accuracy and honesty...it evoked so many emotions in me! The guy in the end of the video is a video I had seen on social media during the pandemic and it still cuts like a knife! Our ppl endure so much! When will it end???
Oh my Goodnesssss..... He mixed that 🎶🎶Mississippi Children's Choir- I'm Blessed🎶🎶 in the Beat! That's Fire yo!🔥🔥🔥 I wonder if I'm alone who knows what I'm talking bout! I Love Music😍♥️
Something subtle that I caught in this video….. when the white dude walked up the stairs, they all bumped into him, as if they didnt see him but they all moved when Wale walked up the stairs. That happens to us everyday. They never move when we walk, whether we say excuse me or not. I’m glad they put that in there.
This should be the anthem to uplift our people. Our mindsets need to change. We need to change the narratives of just existence. Praying for my people.
This gave me goosebumps. Wale knows how to make videos. Damn.
💯
Yes I felt the same way omg loved it
I really felt this.

Not everyone knows this, tho this is my first time here seeing this video, I’m ashamed of jus seeing The Chi, but seeing n hearing this song, shhhh I’m not only ashamed but embarrassed to not even hearing this song played on the radio, or advertised to listen to on here or other music mainstream apps. I came here frm watching the chi!!! We see all these stories on these shows, but they we’re inspired by true real life stories ppl experienced past and present, more sadly to say the future too bc WE AS AFRICAN-AMERICANS STILL HATING ON ONE ANOTHER,JEALOUS BC OF MATERIALISTIC THINGS ONE ENVIES, IGNORANT TO OTHER PPL OF SAME COLOR GOING THROUGH OR HAVE BEEN THROUGH SITUATIONS LOOKED AND FROWN ON. Instead of educating each other one by one on thing’s that some are illiterate too. I can give example: sickle cell disease is not funded enough and pushed to the forefront like cancer whn it’s also a terminally ill disease that affects African Americans.. stars like T-boz whn first made known after only having to explain why tours were canceled excessively due to her hospitalization came out thn spoke abt still only years later and still don’t use her platform to bring more awareness and fundraising for research, Lorenz Tate as well. Look whn Magic Johnson came out bk then. AIDS was and still is IMO frowned upon, but he brought more awareness to our ppl “like this is a deadly disease that is not being made aware of in OUR COMMUNITY “ if ur aware of it then u can live a long healthy life if taken care of. I’m also aware that things like this takes money money and more money, but pharmaceutical companies make money by suppressing all herbal medicines and more that are free to obtain, bc they will lose out financially. I believe those who who have a platform shld use it. If those who do have platforms aren’t touched by it in some way, then it dnt affect them. I believe if you truly care abt OUR PPL then try to understand wht others may be going through and be productive to help in anyway possible by asking wht can be done if you have that platform or opportunity to help, make a change for everyone not just self, God will continue to bless you and those who don’t believe in God’s power, but still have the opportunity to help a community, you do good and it will be rewarded by putting out good it comes bk to you. Sorry for such a long message but I felt after seeing so much pain and struggles,some good blessings, then the show “The Chi” just made it more aware of wht others go through reality for me, even though I’m a miracle myself dealing with sickle cell disease. I still see others go through other struggles that I have been blessed not to have gone through regardless of my illness. I will be healed and praying for everyone no matter the status or level each of us are on….🙏🏾 be humble and educate ourselves, the whole world too..

Stop saying wale is underrated if you ain't streaming his songs
I'm blessed by Mississippi mass choir. I heard and had to sing it in 2000. And how wale brought it back. Watching the chi. Just know your blessed when you wake up in your right mind and able to use all your senses. That's a reason to say I'm blessed. Very creative wale Very creative. God bless you.
We are soulful ppl ✊🏾in a world ruled by soulless ppl...Father deliver us 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Wale is one of my absolute favorite artists, I have almost everything he's ever created in my library and this song I still play like it just came out but I've never ever seen this video and it's a masterpiece. I literally can't move; this video is chilling...I'm shook at the accuracy and honesty...it evoked so many emotions in me! The guy in the end of the video is a video I had seen on social media during the pandemic and it still cuts like a knife! Our ppl endure so much! When will it end???
Oh my Goodnesssss..... He mixed that 🎶🎶Mississippi Children's Choir- I'm Blessed🎶🎶 in the Beat! That's Fire yo!🔥🔥🔥 I wonder if I'm alone who knows what I'm talking bout! I Love Music😍♥️
He didn't do it the producer did

Wale always speaking the real🔥 I always appreciate his honesty and openness! Share this video guys!
This song has a gospel feel to it. I was listening to this song at work and started crying.
He sampled the song "I'm Blessed" by the Mississippi Mass Children's Choir
The chi brought me here, thank you. This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Wale!!!!! ❤️
Am here for Wale 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This should blow up on Tik Tok.
Black Lives Matter,
Period.
"Sue me, I'm rooting for everybody that's black" 🤞🏽🤞🏽❤
Always have been, BUT ESPECIALLY NOW!!! EVERYBODY BLACK. #WEALLWEGOT
Something subtle that I caught in this video….. when the white dude walked up the stairs, they all bumped into him, as if they didnt see him but they all moved when Wale walked up the stairs. That happens to us everyday. They never move when we walk, whether we say excuse me or not. I’m glad they put that in there.
This should be the anthem to uplift our people. Our mindsets need to change. We need to change the narratives of just existence. Praying for my people.
Facts . Peace king 💯✊🏾
The realest video I seen in a long while. Wale did that shit
Wale one of the top greats of the 2010’s. He inspired every song I ever made. I hope to work with him soon.
speak it into existence
Wales spits the truth in a way of making it sound so good that you forget it's a social issue he is talking about
#womenarepeople
