Mad, my first million views on my own channel. BIG love to everyone who felt enough of a connection with the song to keep watching and listening, WE DID IT 👊🏾 I got a lot more music on the way for you lot so stay tuned, love ✌🏾 #Nodaysoff
Your ability to convey a story through lyricism is breathtaking. This song is the one of the best post grime songs released in a long time. Keep up the good work, man.
MAD!!! He's TALENTED!!! Why's it that most rappers that become successful aren't even that talented and are ungrateful, but those who are FIYA .e.g. Stormzy and Dave have to work hard to get the recognition; when Stormzy said he's been in the rap game for 100 months I felt that...
This is real rap. Just listen to the lyrics and how they tell a story whilst still being a fire song. Most rap nowadays be hella repetitive with no identity whatsoever but this is just something else
@Laura Nwogu you from the states? Don't worry, regardless, you'll always find real ones with the storytelling rap instead of (just) glorifying, wherever they from
Laura Nwogu I mean the 90s hip hop scene was amazing but in terms of power and money... the current black music market is incomparably better - there’s much better black infrastructure and labels. Look at the examples of U.K. artists signed to black American labels. I guess my point is I’d rather have mumble rap and black money and power than soulful hip hop only. I guess you’d point to the negative impact it (shit rap) has on black culture but there’s still a balance to be had and you can’t tell me J Cole, Kendrick etc aren’t real hip hop fr.
Nikola Mikic He’s talking about the epidemic of violence, murders and crime going on in London; “duck this smoke” refers to dodging meaning that you can’t hide from the beef and you’ll end up getting hurt from it, you can’t hide from the truth of this violence or someday you’ll get caught up in it. Smoke is a warning of a fire and it alerts passerby’s, the fire in this case is London and rather than running away from it or ignoring it Knucks is saying to tackle it head on.
It’s Venna, the same sax for J - Hus, wiz kid and other UK artists, he’s legendary and if u listen to other songs from Knucks which have a sax on is most likely Venna as well.
Knucks is killing it on this track! The only reason he’s not getting more hits is because he hasn’t checked out the short on my channel that breaks down how all these rappers are blowing up so big.
Knucks is a classic example that if you keep grinding, you will eventually make it one day. Been here since day and he could have just sacked it when he wasn't blowing. All I'm trying to say is hard work pays off, people. Keep hustling.
@@edcolton8385 you goofy af if you think this is drill music. You dont know what drills are and you dont know what drill music is made for. dont speak on things you know less bout. This is just uk rap...
@damian To give you a more analytical, opininated reply, "London's Burning" is an old nursery rhyme from 1580 after the Burning of Edinburgh in 1544. The change of lyrics is mostly known for the 1666 great fire of london when london had a really big fire that crossed miles. A lot of people died and it took a lot of time to rebuild the structure that you see today. "You can't duck this smoke" refers to people shooting and stabbing people in london. Its a tight knit community, (metaphorically similar to the houses back in 1666) all the gangs that are beefing each other live 10 minutes away. Since civilians who are not affiliated with a gang live in close proximity from members of other gangs, we can never truly avoid/"duck" the mayhem/"smoke" around us. He asks you "can't you see london's burning?" because there's a big crisis with gun and knife crime and it's like people can't see the fire when its crossing the nation. You can tell its about gang crime because the next line he says is "Man know about serving, man know bout the pot and stove" which means serving under a gang and cooking crack to sell. I hope that makes the imagery clearer. It is just what I intepreted from it and from the replies, londoners know exactly what he was talking about.
I can’t believe I’ve only just come across this guy, I’ve just listened to he’s album and I am getting massive “Reasonable doubt” UK style and that is saying something! I’m saying it now in 5 years time this is guy is going to be a global superstar!
Shout out to the RUclips algorithm for putting me on to this... He should defo do a UK version of a Kendrick Lemar Good Kidd Mad City type album about London. Keep it up, your sick!
This already a top song of 2020. The instrumental, storytelling and video (both narratively and aesthetically) are excellent. The UK has not disappointed me personally for the last 3 years I've been on it. Pure brilliance, that country is flooded with talent.
THIS SONG IS GENIUS. the start is the continuation of the reporter at the end, when he is arrested. He’s living the life that we know ends with him being arrested and his friend murdering someone. It makes you consider the outcome throughout the verses, gives a whole new perspective to everything he says. at the chorus he ends it with “wait true say i never did...” thats him realising he should’ve stayed at home. Knucks the GOAT.🐐🐐
this tune made me truly deep my life style as a youth. I should've just stayed at home with mum some nights. Glad i grew out of that nonsense, i think i was just angry at the world and wanted to see it burn, to share my suffering with people who had it better than me because i was jealous. Took my best friend dying for me to see sense wish I had only realised earlier. May Allah have mercy on his soul. I pray for him.
@@replayers5354 I only need the father Jesus was a prophet, I submit to the creator and the creator alone. I don’t need any middle men and neither does the lord almighty. Idolatry isn’t the way. It is wrong to associate partners with God. May you find the true path.
MOM'S SAYIN STUFF ABOUT OPENIN UP BUT THAT'S WHAT THE BRO'S ARE FOR -- and the fact that he closes the song rapping about the missed calls from his mum and sayin "man i should've went home" is actually a pretty accurate description of a pattern you find way too often in our society. the lack of child-parent connection and children opening themselves up to their homies without realizing that this role is reserved for their parents/adult of trust is root of a lot of crimes happening nowadays. You won't find the love and compassion you need to feel some sort of security and intimacy in people that are looking for it themselves/are not yet aware enough of themselves to give it to you in a healthy and mature way. connections like these are as beautiful as they are dangerous because they are instabil and make you dependent on each other. I like how knucks is adressing this pattern in such a subtle manner
I'm from Russia and I've been listening to this damn album for a week without even switching to another artists' records. The instrumentals, the lyrical contents, the visuals, it's all insanely beautiful. A bomb.
Normally don't write in comments. But this is the best storytelling and visuals I have seen. We need more people like Knucks. This is what more young black man should be watching and seeing that there are consequences. Hope you gain popularity Knucks and thanks for this storytelling.
This guys so cold. Its refreshing to get music like this, backed up with a unusual but amazing instrumental combined with his flow and story telling. He’s toooo hard. This is his year ❗️
Knucks made an insane song with such beautiful lyrics that contain a great flow and message to them plus the way the song politically challenges the modern problems in England really makes this song unique. The storytelling is unique and like nothing I have ever seen before. As well at that the beat really compliments the vocals in such a divine way. I've seen comments on this video comparing Knucks to Kendrick Lamar but I think Knucks is his own thing and cannot be compared to anyone. This whole song is amazing.
Perfectly depicts knife violence amongst the youts. I’m American, and stabbings aren’t nearly as prevalent here, I’ve done extensive research about knife violence in the UK and this perfectly depicts a situation that could go left so quickly. Love, lust, emotions, friendships, pride can all come into question at any moment and lead someone to do something that could fuck them over for the rest of their life. Great visual, even better song, officially got a fan from NYC bruh, shoutout Knucks
Need more of this guy, This reminds me of real Hiphop right here, i hope this guy blows up bigger than any UK artist, and makes even better and more meaningful songs.
This is far better than drill fam, sick and tired of hearing about coke and shanking.. Just polluting the yout dem minds .. Like bruv where is real music gone bruv... Every body is a gangster, get a man on his knees with a pumpy between his eyes he gonna scream for his life. 98% ain't t about that life, painting a fake picture for the kids to colour in. End of days, bad is now good and good is bad and laughed at.
That’s what the music industry is for. To corrupt the youth. Record companies are invested in private prisons, so since it’s a business, gotta make crime popular to keep the prisons full. it’s not a conspiracy. it’s facts.
I swear to God this song is a telling of a violent story OR a calming vibe. It all depends on whether you listen to the lyrics or are just enjoying the musicality
the song reminded me of my younger years.. of those countless incidents that could've been easily prevented if I listened to mums and stayed home that night.. rest in peace to all my fallen soldiers, and props to #knucks for this dope track..
Mad, my first million views on my own channel. BIG love to everyone who felt enough of a connection with the song to keep watching and listening, WE DID IT 👊🏾 I got a lot more music on the way for you lot so stay tuned, love ✌🏾

This is far better than drill fam, sick and tired of hearing about coke and shanking.. Just polluting the yout dem minds .. Like bruv where is real music gone bruv... Every body is a gangster, get a man on his knees with a pumpy between his eyes he gonna scream for his life. 98% ain't t about that life, painting a fake picture for the kids to colour in.
End of days, bad is now good and good is bad and laughed at.
same old same old everywhere and aint gon change anytime soon. some keep it real though, thankfully
That’s what the music industry is for. To corrupt the youth. Record companies are invested in private prisons, so since it’s a business, gotta make crime popular to keep the prisons full. it’s not a conspiracy. it’s facts.
@@faux36 Record companies really invest in private prisons? All the good principles our countries were built on are fading away.
Legend has it fam that’s the industry for ya bruv it’s literally gone to shit dem man
@@JustinRM20 what good principles?

I swear to God this song is a telling of a violent story OR a calming vibe. It all depends on whether you listen to the lyrics or are just enjoying the musicality

The soundtrack to this lockdown ting
I keep coming back to this song ..
Knucks it too good. Best kept secret in Hip Hop atm. Story telling machine.
I’ve listened to this tune over 100X still not bored of it 💯one of the best tunes for me for 2021 the Sax definitely makes it work 💪🏾💥👊🏾
the song reminded me of my younger years.. of those countless incidents that could've been easily prevented if I listened to mums and stayed home that night.. rest in peace to all my fallen soldiers, and props to #knucks for this dope track..
