Hands down Mike is the epitome of what black men are and can be when given a chance to show just how different most of us are. And I'm proud to say that because one day the tides will turn and it will be people like he who will change the narrative and bring all of us closer together as people ❤️ 💯🙏 None of us are perfect by any means but we turn bad into good and tragedy into triumph!
Side bar: I cried every single time he did because I've went thru the exact same thing and it's crazy to believe that something in me made me click on this interview today but I'm thankful I did because I haven't cried in a long time and I needed this. God bless whoever sees this interview it might be for a reason 🙏
Bruh u not alone. What u said was facts. I still tear up listening to motherless and speak lord. I find myself watching him for inspiration on building from the ground up and how he started his first business
@@YNGTrauma that means alot my G and its alot more of us out there 💯 im like you I really appreciate the fact that he speaks for many of us and isn't afraid to cry in front of the world. Im sorry for your loss and I pray for you with you fr 🙏 💪and he is definitely an inspiration aye I hope whatever you inspire to do you do well at it and succeed beyond expectations
I love how people are amazed that he's articulate and "intelligent" as if that is a rarity. He wouldn't be on here being interviewed on always invited by Bill Maher, or another show if he didn't have and interesting perspective. Being an artist alone takes talent, intelligence and certain level of genius that most humans don't no matter where they come from.
I don't think it's about being amazed. To me, it's about appreciating his ability to articulate a perspective that we haven't heard very often and make it universal. I feel like people thinking that MIke being called "articulate" as a back-handed compliment loses the plot. I'll use that exact same term, but I mean it as a "thank you" to him for opening up a part of humanity that me, as a dude from the north, wouldn't have otherwise understood. I'd have a few beers and talk life with MIke any day.
For a rapper it is generally a rarity to be as intelligent and articulate as he is. Those that occupy that community generally tend, as least in the past and in his era, to come from rougher or less affluent backgrounds without great educational infrastructure in their communities.
@@723taylorjharrisI'd like to know which rappers especially in his peak era, are not intelligent?? Even with all the bull crap they have to endure that other music genres don't they still power through. 😂😂it's laughable when you put great education & USA in the same sentence.. The world laughs at how uneducated we are as a whole. They claim we're endocunated
I gotta admit, I've never really been a fan of Killer Mike. But it's probably because of the fact that I really didn't know much about him. But after this interview, I am 100% on board and can say I am a big Killer Mike fan. He is so intelligent and charming. And I'm sure it's due to being raised by wonderful people with great values. I particularly loved his response when asked why he didn't vote for Hillary Clinton (Hilarious). And I also gotta admit that the thing I love the most about him is his political knowledge, it's amazing!! So Killer Mike, I definitely 100% believe that you should run for office, any office. As long as you're in there fighting for us regular folks. And lastly, it's gotta be said "KILLER MIKE FOR PRESIDENT!!!"
@carolinahogan2071 To be completely honest, I ain’t know who tf Killer Mike was until a little over a year ago. I have no idea how tf that’s even possible given that I was born and raised in the south and lived in Atlanta, GA almost 5 years during his heyday. But all of that is besides the point. What I can say about the man is that I admire him for many reasons. He’s intelligent, wise, articulate, an entrepreneur, family man, and in addition to being ambitious he is also a true “Man of The People”. It’s quite refreshing to discover just how intelligent and well spoken he is given his profession, but equally notable is his political commentary. I think he would make a great politician because he really advocates for the betterment not only of our people, but for all people. Real stand up guy 💯 👍🏽
7:26 It’s crazy. I have to quit a job tomorrow I started last month tomorrow, and Mike gave me the perfect reason to provide my boss for leaving. I was feeling guilty about it because it’s great money and my time there has been fantastic, but it’s not something I want to do for the rest of my life because my life calls for me to be something greater. An honest living is an honest living, but given by education level it ultimately boils down to where I know I can make the most impact. 👊🏽✊🏿
This was a very good interview. It was most touching to learn how much he appreciated his Grandparents and Parents. His story was moving and I can see how much he loved his family and the values that were placed in him, and his Love for his people. Wonderful Interview!
As an Atlanta native I repeatedly find myself enlightened, encouraged and proud everytime I listen to this guy! He’s a prominent activist, talented and passionate businessman that really embodies what is to be a man! His ability to introduce to the soul of himself through his rear gift to articulate his feelings thoughts and intentions are simply amazing
Its not educational... The man CLEARLY doesnt understand God or the concept of SINNING... Having more then one sexual partner is a SIN... Advocating for socialism/communism is also ANIT-Christian...
Tezlyn F. And the Kennedy's. I really am into. I'm big on Actions than words. Words r just as important. Special unsurprising joyful events comes quicker when u doing decent deeds. The 3 d's r more important than the 3 three's in 30 secs. As I heard someone said out of the mouth from being at a basketball game. That phrase was simply amazing to hear n it stuck with me to be honest. About a star player on the ATL Hawks team. U probably know what player that I'm referring to. Anyone knows the starter guy with the Frosty the snow basketball baller. With the great long range shooting he does. Wae of the Trae!! 😊😊😊
Why I literally shot sprinkles of spit out from laughing so hard when he talked about how they beat him.😂 I was so disgusted with myself but the way he told that moment.....they beat him out his shoes & for some reason I just pictured the moment. 🤣
Obviously he's gotten huge b/c of RTJ But I really recommend listening to his solo album R.A.P. music which is one of the best of the last 20 years. Reagan is an especially dope track.
I surely understand what Killer Mike is saying. My father did the same thing. While he was transitioning, my dad looked pass me and saw something else. He raised his hand and was reaching for something else.

Words well spoken.
Killer Mike is one of the world's best people.
fr, dudes a national treasure for sure...
sidenote: i feel the same way about charleston white & jesse lee peterson

Hes not intelligent... Hes a moron Communist that thinks its ok to have multiple relationships when that is CLEARLY a sin...
Killa Mike is one of the greatest black men to walk the planet. I wish him the best in all his endeavors. ✊🏽❤️🖤💚

Just curious, why were you never a fan of him?
Yo president not mine
What Mike you not a fan. Just wondering.

I love the fact that RTJ blew up bc it's given us all way more chances to listen to Mike. This dude is an absolute gift to us all.
100%
This was a very good interview. It was most touching to learn how much he appreciated his Grandparents and Parents. His story was moving and I can see how much he loved his family and the values that were placed in him, and his Love for his people. Wonderful Interview!
This man’s extremely articulate and intelligent and very entertaining, I pray one day we can create some music together Amen
Great interview!
Future Grammy Award Winner @KillerMikeGTO is a COMPLETE #LEGEND
You called it
@@mikeybee456 💯 💯
Such an Amazing album 🔥 🔥 🔥
Great interview. Michael is STILL , ALBUM OF THE YEAR
He should definitely win the Grammy for sure… big moments on the way
The way I understand more about my life watching this.
MUCH RESPECT TO 👑 Mike ✊🏾💪🏾🙏🏾
Dope interview
Amazing individual 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 a newfound respect for this gentleman here... congratulations on all that the Lord has blessed you with..💯
Lil Mike showing the best example of Black family experience. Excellent interview ❣️
Mike I know what is to lose a mother that is a lot of pain to process your a great human peace 😊 love and light 💡
Killer Mike is an amazing human being… Very well spoken and highly articulate to be from the condition he is from.
Killer Mike is telling that black experience. And it’s real!!! To God be the Glory!!!! 🎉
Unfortunately it seems to be the minority of the Black experience, in many communities the negativity takes over
@@JayBoo228I bet money you're not black or FBA because if you were you'll know the statement above is very accurate 😂😂
As an Atlanta native I repeatedly find myself enlightened, encouraged and proud everytime I listen to this guy! He’s a prominent activist, talented and passionate businessman that really embodies what is to be a man! His ability to introduce to the soul of himself through his rear gift to articulate his feelings thoughts and intentions are simply amazing
Killer mike the man
He is the face of Atlanta Hip Hop we should all strive to be more like Mike
I wonder how Killer Mike & Big Boi feel about Andre 3000's solo album?
I’m confident they support him
Big Boi loves Andre as a friend but hates him as a group member cost him millions of dollars
Thank you sir for this truly emotional educational video .
Its not educational... The man CLEARLY doesnt understand God or the concept of SINNING... Having more then one sexual partner is a SIN... Advocating for socialism/communism is also ANIT-Christian...
Brother thank u!!!
Man I love this dude. Every new interview that drops I have to listen to.

Just this interview restored the hope again 'i was born on 4/17 relate right off back "06"class salute
Now Killa, I'm on ya team, but we gone disagree about the polygamy thing. One man and one woman sir!
I had an encounter with them red dogs myself. He ain't lying, and I didn't even sell dope.
Why I literally shot sprinkles of spit out from laughing so hard when he talked about how they beat him.😂 I was so disgusted with myself but the way he told that moment.....they beat him out his shoes & for some reason I just pictured the moment. 🤣
What a great interview
This was a great interview!

The interviewee is Amazing. The interviewer did not sound authentic at all!!
Obviously he's gotten huge b/c of RTJ But I really recommend listening to his solo album R.A.P. music which is one of the best of the last 20 years. Reagan is an especially dope track.
