@@AD-rx9cm no rapper has ever incorporated spoken word poetry with a unique DC sound “Gogo” so beautifully in my opinion.. not to mention he single handedly opened the door for all DC and DMV rappers to enter the game… and his catalogue and consistent billboard hits speak for themselves… he really is under appreciated but definitely one of the greatest to ever pick up a mic
Man, I love Wale...Been rocking since 09'.....It sucks that he's impacted so many lives and the culture at large, but always seems to feel like he doesn't get the credit he deserves...I pray he sees the true value of his impact one day..
I love that he praises black woman. I love that he never forgets his strong DC roots. Well he really can't cause it's in his speech 100% lol! But I respect his music and I wish he was bigger but folks want to hear more of bitches and hoes... And popping pills music. DC all day!
Man as a African (Lib🇱🇷&Ghana 🇬🇭) that Been in America for a bit I'm always happy to see someone from our continent flourish and be successful. Been rocking with wale since before nike boots days
One of the coldest in the game. Straight poet. High bar is set, we tell our guys this is your competition, if you're not touching this quality, lets do it over again.
He was raised & went to school in Md. he started claiming Dc when he started hanging with Rock Mikey & UCB . Just like KD . Them niggas hang with a few guys from the city & now they from here. MD bammas
Wake has been one of my favorite rappers since he’s entered the industry. His verse on No Hands really shows how versatile Wale can be. More About Nothing is a timeless classic
Best album of the year. I'm listening with a top notch studio headphone and I think it's anathema to listen to any music with cheap headphones. Ish sounds beautiful.
I have been fucking with Wale since Dig Dug...If im being honest it takes damn near a full calendar year to digest a Wale album. Slim, been the best rapper in the game for 10 years, now. Don't worry one day the world will appreciate artist like Wale, Curren$y and Pusha T. Not to compare, but if Kendrick or Cole spit like Wallace, they would be deemed better than Hova...Them is Shaq Facts!!!!
I hate that people don’t give this man his props, don’t get me wrong this is the first full body classic album he’s put out but all his albums are great and he is in the top 10 of this era
@@victorjoaquin6852 the only questionable joint he's put out for me is shine. Remember The Album about Nothing followed The Gifted.Wow that's crazy was good album. Folarin 2 pased my 5 track minimum for a good album. Got me wondering what the original project sounded like.
I respect that he didn’t compromise who he is, he’s the same dude we first saw. That’s the reason he’ll never ever be a superstar. He’s gonna drop a single, check a bag then fade away. Repeat
Yea I feel wale gets slept on..I’ve paid for all his albums pre ordered the new joint on iTunes and now his new album has been out almost a week and still waiting on it..iTunes dropped the ball on that
If Wale reads this or not. From a fellow Virgo. Playa Pimpin People Respect Playa Pimpn People! The rest do to...but pray at a completely different steeple! God knows ur name!
My guy just really wants the acknowledgment and congrats on the in PUBLIC!!! He been battling with that for the longest. Us Moonz can only do so much. He know we love him REGARDLESS 💙🌙
People consider Wale solidified, but he never comes up in conversations with Drake, Cole, Kendrick, Future, Big Sean, Mac Miller, and dont forget, Cudi who came before all of them
Wale has been as relevant as Drake has been and they both got hot around the same time.. he’s not gonna have the album sales but he has proven time after time that he’s a goat.
Shoutout my Nigerians but the whole "Nigerians are the best performing immigrant group in America" stat was fact-checked , They are "one" of the best immigrants , overall they ranked 11th with number one being Indian-Americans .

Wale,you are a true son of your parents. We your brothers from Nigeria 🇳🇬, and the African continent are super proud of you.. Keep shining.
I'm Nigerian American 🇳🇬
That class of Wale, Jcole, Wiz, Drake, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, and Future is one of the greatest rap classes ever.
We won’t see anything like it again
The only wiz we know is WIZKID
I don’t think he’s a rapper
That decade is timeless.
@@worldentertainingstreets3376 Get out lol
Can't forget Krit and Nipsey Hussle
Wale is one of the greatest rappers of all time hands down!! Maybach poetic genius
I love Wale but how?

@@chiemxerxobi that’s my favorite project from him. But greatest… that term is used super loosely. He’s dope though
@@chiemxerxobi first folarin was 🔥🔥
Great album from wale literally no skips only 15 songs 47 mintues long!!!!!
Facccccctttss I said The said same thing
There's one skip lol I hate Jump In lol but album is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@nasthegoat6738 nah I love jump in but to each their own
That album is so good….
I skipped a couple of songs.
Wale is a young legend! Bro been nice. I appreciate bro and his artistry. Music is legendary ‼️

Big Facts
That's my only gripe. We give him as much recognition and love as we can. Hope he sees his impact one day as well.
I differently agree
I like the fact that wale has found that inner peace and is not concerned about industry metrics!! Much respect! Naija in the building!!
Great Convo. Wale is that cool neighbor upstairs who whenever you see them, you want to go for a walk in the park and light it up.
And thennnn?
Nobody thinks wale is cool lol
Always good to hear from Wale. Both a lyrical beast & a style ICON. A true original artist.
Which style🥴
Rakim, 2Pac and Nas combine.
You’re pushing it with style icon - Let’s not get carried away
@@Jay-jw4yi respectfully, his longevity and style selection make him an icon to me. But everyone is entitled to their opinion.
Wale will always remain timeless… just solid dude.
To escape hell believe in Jesus he shed his blood for your sins, he rose again for you to be in heaven.
Ebro, Laura and Rosenberg always show Nigeria soooo much love. 🇳🇬 loves you guys too. Hope you come to 🇬🇧 soon
I love that he praises black woman. I love that he never forgets his strong DC roots. Well he really can't cause it's in his speech 100% lol! But I respect his music and I wish he was bigger but folks want to hear more of bitches and hoes... And popping pills music. DC all day!
I agree, it's even greater that he uses his gift to uplift them, they deserve everything and more, enjoy your day Queen👑
He still has the dc accent so much... cool to c
‼️
Love from your DC folks from by the shrimp boat. DEANWOOD ALL DAY💯💪🏿
@@bookofeli1902 come on shrimp boat! I was born around they're. East Capital st. But my main roots is S.W!
Hands down one of my favorite artist and lyrics we love you Wale when it’s all said and done his catalog will speak for itself 🙌🏽🙌🏽

@j mike freeman: Did you agree with Wale when he said all black people are African? Our black ancestors are from all over the world, not just Africa!

Wale is one of the great DC rapper and the whole album Folarin II is lit and it’s still number 1 on iTunes charts. 🐐🐐🐐🐐👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The greatest DC rapper*
He not from DC, he's from Montgomery County, MD
@@facethegreat8774 When I was on Wikipedia I search Wale and he was born in Northwest, DC, but he was really raised in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
He was raised & went to school in Md. he started claiming Dc when he started hanging with Rock Mikey & UCB . Just like KD . Them niggas hang with a few guys from the city & now they from here. MD bammas
I really like the space that Wale is in. He’s super underrated but the real know! #dmv
Wale Folarin. My favorite artist ever. Love that he gave himself flowers this time 🌹
ruclips.net/video/8WZFaSJ0KZk/видео.html
Wale new album is fire all the way through! Every song no skips! Such a great artist and I’m going to go back and listen to his whole catalog.
Wake has been one of my favorite rappers since he’s entered the industry. His verse on No Hands really shows how versatile Wale can be. More About Nothing is a timeless classic
You a legend brodie. Keep going crazy. Folarin changed the game for me in high school
Wale definitely been levelling up music wise 👍👍

@@Queenofsole100 Yes Sir They Had All The Fly Clothes 💯🔥
Why him & KD keep Reping Dc when they from Maryland . They ain’t go to school in the city. They just accepted by a few dudes

We love you Wale
A real one hands down with timeless records.
Wale has always been that guy, people just love to hate on him
I have been fucking with Wale since Dig Dug...If im being honest it takes damn near a full calendar year to digest a Wale album. Slim, been the best rapper in the game for 10 years, now. Don't worry one day the world will appreciate artist like Wale, Curren$y and Pusha T. Not to compare, but if Kendrick or Cole spit like Wallace, they would be deemed better than Hova...Them is Shaq Facts!!!!
The thumbnail to this is the most Wale thing ever lol.
My FUCKIN FAVE!!!! AND he shouted out NSU at the end!!! 🤗🤗💪🏾💪🏾 Sorry it's the VA in me! 🥰😍
Great interview.He seems more calm and focused.He is usually fidgety 😂
Shid he still is I’m watching his interview with Drink Champs 😳🤦🏾♀️

Wale got nothing to prove. Give that brother he’s 🌺
The best
He said state of the union! We performed there during open night mic back in the day! Goodtimes
I hate that people don’t give this man his props, don’t get me wrong this is the first full body classic album he’s put out but all his albums are great and he is in the top 10 of this era
Very very underrated rapper right here
He always gives hot the best interview 💯💯💯
His best body of work is not even an álbum its the mixtape he released before Ambition.
Tatts on my arm was heat
Hmm I'd say it's a tie between the Album about nothing and The Gifted
@@TheSupinesmokey true but after the gifted he kinda fell off
@@victorjoaquin6852 the only questionable joint he's put out for me is shine. Remember The Album about Nothing followed The Gifted.Wow that's crazy was good album. Folarin 2 pased my 5 track minimum for a good album. Got me wondering what the original project sounded like.
Yeah, More About Nothing was a classic. I was bumping that daily for months in 2010.
Fire🔥& Ice🧊 is my favorite song on the album 💿
