It’s a tradition to watch this every now and again
True dat
I’m back again
@@Leaferr literally,every time I watched this I cry it’s just beautiful honestly
He just shat on racists, I wanna see the annihilation whenever I forget.
This song gives me hope in an awful world.
Song hits even harder now 😓
tm
For real
Word
Just posted to my FB, 'Seems apt right about now..'
Facts ✊🏿
A reminder that this man was 21 when he did this. 21. Arguably the best.
No arguement
21 is an adult your point being ?
@@mixedonions To be so young but so talented and impactful is a rare thing.
@@penguin8669 really ? I take it you don’t get out much 😆
@@penguin8669 which part of 21 isn’t young do you not understand Ollson?
still one of the best performances of the Brits...Ever
back again
*The
One of the best performances i have ever seen
I remember watching this live it hits different when your actually there
@@thebarnineffect same😂
Don’t have to black to appreciate this absolute masterpiece
For sure. Amazing production and lyrics.
facts 100%
Man guys gone through 10 fold now amazing
Fact
Dave is a massive inspiration, such an icon
Is no one going to talk about how good those animations on the piano were
I was thinking the same, it's just a quality performance throughout.
@@bioniccoyote2166 agreed
Great animations
is no one gonna talk about the performance. he did it in front of how many man playing piano with out fucking up the words
Naa we gonna talk about the knowledge he dropped🔥
"least racist is still racist" "equality's a right, it doesn't deserve credit" man is out here explaining the entirety of racism in less than 5 minutes and they can't even teach us a fraction about it in 14 years of schooling
Dave is racist. Most black people are (because they think only white people can be)
Such simple concepts that people just don’t understand. Using the defence of “that country is more racist than ours” doesn’t erase the experience of poc in this country.
I am always amazed to hear that this part of history was left out of the education curriculum in this part of the world. Growing up in a British colony we learnt about the history of the British Empire, it's victories in wars and the Royal family. This incomplete history is still a subject choice for some schools today. Now that I'm older and have read more, I understand why some people can say they did not learn most of this at school. But despite that knowledge gap, most of the commentary has been exceptionally positive and encouraging. Thank you everyone for such encouragement to a young man shaping his career and shaking the world at the same time. I salute.
I’m from the United States of America. And this for the UK. My son is 15 and he introduces me to the UK rap. I must say Im so impressed y’all music is fire. Santan Dave you bought tears to my eyes with song. And I appreciate every word in this song. Dave, Stormzy, Dutchavelli, Aight, tion, Wayne, Central Cee. Keep it coming. Trust me we hear you guys in the States. I love y’all music
👌🏽
Cheers man, you should also listen to Skepta, jme, Kano, ghetts and Giggs.
They’re some uk rap legends and are really good
That’s wild I’m 15 and I introduced my dad to Dave the man is so aware of everything going on and putting into rap it’s amazing
Check out Casisdead too. One of the best UK rappers, he uses 80s samples it's different and unique
@@chungarito7739 I’m gonna check them out
Black is writing a song that deserves a grammy but doesnt get nominated.
Yess!!
abso wep i mean hes not, he shouted out a white guy in this song you idiot
@abso wep what has he said that is "anti-white"? I'm white and I didnt find anything about what he said "anti-white" or offensive. I actually related to it a lot.
@abso wep actually if you would of asked me that question rather than assume, you would of found out that my political views are center right. The point you make makes zero sense, also you still haven't answered the question. What of what he said is "anti-white"?
@abso wep this is because black people have had to deal with things that white people will never understand. for example if an orphan said orphans are great, he isn't anti people with parents. your logic, in fact shows how ignorant you are. you see something like this and automatically think its about some you (assuming you are white , which you probably are), no it's about giving hope to those black people who needed to hear this.
You can’t deny Dave is one of the most lyrically talented rappers at the moment.
I agree,
name a rapper who’s better lyrically than him
At the moment u mean he always will be
Nobody except Avelino is at his level
@@samuelhowe7618 wretch 32, akala, lowkey and avileno are all better lyrically even dave wudnt deny that
No one understands how balanced your brain needs to be to do 2 things at the same time , playing the piano and singing at the same time , i find it hard to even speak while playing the piano but Dave can sing while playing it. TALENT
THIS!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🤯
if anything, singing is easier, but rapping and playing the piano is mental!
It would have been relatively easier if he was singing. Man is rapping, spitting bars. Damn
He wasn't playing
It’s called repetitive practice.
this has to be one of the greatest mic drops in the history of music
mic drops
100%
He had a choice of any of his songs. Professor X. Disaster. Location. Thiago Silva. He could have promoted himself even more if he wanted. Instead he went for a song with a message, big up dave 🙌🏼
That's what sets Dave apart from every other artist.
All his songs have brilliant messages Dave is a true inspiration, he diesnt real about drugs, money or fcking bitches, he raps about real shit, the truth, things tht need 2 be heard about, he is a legend a one if a kind artist, person, much love brudda keep grinding ❤ keep spreading positivity and love ❤ love from Manchester ❤
MoMo_ Beatz yeh i know, but he chose the one with the best message over the best music still
That’s what makes him so inspirational and different love him sm 💓
Predictable
You know it’s powerful music when it makes you angry about things you never experienced
Imagine you have experienced poverty or being back opressions hurts and kills so many and too many turn a blind eye
Could not have said it better!
My thoughts exactly he’s the man
The thing is, it's not just a song about a race, it's a message about fighting against the cards you've been dealt, doing the best you can, regardless of the odds
Calm down poverty exists in every race, i like the fact he is highlighting the matter
The most powerful Brits performance ever. I still come back to it nearly four years later. I have never experienced any of the pain expressed through the song but the skill and talent of this man makes you feel it. How was he 21 when he did this!?!?!
This is one of the most powerful songs humanity's ever produced. There's so much to dissect, regardless of how easy to understand the song is. Shivers down my whole body. Seriously. Dave will forever be the UK's best.
Just because we always take the credit away from the amasing and heavenly talented black people (not sure if this was the intent here), but I feel a strong urge to comment that it is not humanity that produced the song, it is Dave that produced it, a enormously talented black man.
wow this is exaggerated tf was I smoking
@@controversialtv2603in fairness you were right about Dave being the best though. To think he did that at 21 is a madness
I wawI wdwaawwwwwwww

Still the greatest ever performance at the brits, nothing comes close
Dave this year, Stormzy a few years ago in the rain and Kanye in 2015 were the other great ones, all far below this one though
Had to come back to this after seeing the Brits 2022 Performance. Still Insane.
literally
You’re not the only one bro. Hits me every time
Dave is in a different league. One of the most lyrically talented artists about right now. Take a bow son!
You are correct .He is in the relegation zone.The Bolton Wanderers of the 1st division.

I love that he called out the media bullshitting with kate and megan.
Nusaybah Saad I’m from america, what happened
@@bigboi1228 Basically, he's referencing the media scrutiny that Megan faced compared to Kate. Of which the main problem was not the scrutiny itself but that it was based on her skin colour. Media tabloids just were filled with covert racist messages. When compared to Kate, often Megan would be doing the same things but the media would find something to say that subtly referred to her Americaness and why she was so 'different'. It got so bad at one point this led Megan to say something in a documentary about how she was feeling, she said 'its not enough to jsut survive, it's about living to thrive'. This came after Harry feared that Megan life would end the same as his mother princess Diana, because the media scrutiny was related to her death. Ofcourse Diana's reason for beinf bullied was because she didn't come from Royality, Megan on the other hand is her "urbaness". Lol That's the type of shitt they would use in the media when talking about her. After that interveiw, the media was worse than before. Saying that Megan should shutup and take it, since its a privalege to be part of the royal family. The bullying just got worse and continued. I'm glad Megan and Harry got out, I don't think it would've ended well for Megan if she stayed. Hope that explains it.
Nusaybah Saad Thank you, I understand it now
@ Didn't say kate deserved scrutiny. I have nothing against kate. People always say oh Megan took him away from his family, BUT isn't Harry his own man. Does he not have agency to make choices? He moved away because he wanted to put his immediate family first which is Megan and Archie. Imagine seeing your wife everyday trying to keep her head above water which isn't good for anyones mental health and there's nothing you can do about it. Ofcourse you'll make the same choice, if you had a choice. Harry and Megan made this choice together, they are husband and wife. People make Megan some kind of witch who's sole purpose is to break up the royal family. She wouldn't have tried to be a part of it, if that was her goal. She embraced his family, it's just Britain didn't embrace her.
One more thing, you'll never understand covert racism if you haven't experienced it.
Amy frances ur fucking weird if you think the uk isnt racist towards megan. the only reason harry left was because of the hate megan got and still gets from the media
Im not black, but i am middle eastern. When he said "It's working twice as hard As the people you know you're better than 'Cause you need to do double what they do So you can level them", i really felt that. Specially when it comes to school and grades and my dad when it comes to getting a job and providing for the family. Even though I'm not black, as a minority in a white Scandinavian country, i really felt this too! Love you black brothers and love this song too!
This never gets old. His eloquence is so worth a regular re-watch.💙...May 2024
“The least racist is still racist” legend in the making fr
Clown Shoes Goof I’ve gotta ask, how did you think that comment was a good idea? Like even if you firmly believe that, the only thing your going to do is unite people against your 3 remaining brain cells
Clown Shoes Goof your the sort of people who deserve to be sent to a empty island with loads of your other clown mates with nothing and just be left there
Clown Shoes Goof
I know this is bait, but fuck off... even if you believe a word of that was funny you need to look at yourself.

Dolapo Adetifa Black people are probably the most racist demographic in the UK, but they have double standards and poorly attempt to justify their racism.
“Loud in our laughter, silent in our sufferings”
That ish is so true about Blacks, though. That one really encapsulates Blacks.

"NASA" and The United Nation's "Antarctic Treaty" both were created in 1958.
And "DARPA." The "Defence Advance Research Projects Agency" was also Created in 1958.
"NASA":
After Congressional hearings during spring 1958, Congress passed the legislation and President Eisenhower signed the National Aeronautics and Space Act into law on: July 29th, 1958.
"The Antarctic Treaty" :
On May 3rd, 1958. President Eisenhower invited the "Soviet Union" and 10 other Nations "Now 53 Nations" involved with Antarctica research to begin Secret negotiations that would result in adoption of the Antarctic Treaty in Washington D.C.
"DARPA": The Defence Advance Research Projects Agency was Created with A National sense of Urgency in February 1958 amidst one of the most dramatic moments in the History of the Cold War and Already-Accelerating Pace of Technology.
Also Mysteriously "Admiral E Byrd" Died A Year before in "1957".
Guess, they didn't like Him Revealing so much to the Public about what's beyond Antarctica, that they want Hidden from all of Us. ;)
*Most Environmental Movements Started in the 1960's to 1970's.
"Protocol on Environmental Protection" to the "Antarctic Treaty" Also known as the "Antarctic-Environmental Protocol" or the "Madrid Protocol" has only been part of the Antarctic Treaty System Since 1991. 👈😂
It was concluded in Madrid and opened for signature on October 4, 1991 and Entered into force on January 14, 1998. 👈🤣
The Treaty will be open for Review in 2048.* 👈😡

Best Brits performance, EVER!
I am a white guy from the multicultrul slums of london (although I am 49 now) but this shit was true when i was a youngster. Love this song, my niece and nephew are multi raced and I see their struggles.... I hope one day in their future people wake up and realise we all bleed, we all cry and we all feel hurt.
We need this version of black on Spotify
I agree with this information!
Black 1.5. If he ever makes Black 2 he should begin with this followed by his new creation 💯🔥🤞🏻
💯
For sure 🔥

How old are you? Dave is 21 years old. He could have done anything at the BRITs. He chose to do this. Dave is one of the most uniquely talented individuals in the world. "If you don't wanna get it, then you're never gonna get it." Wise so far beyond his years. Be like Dave!
Listen to Dave - Fire in the booth. Skip to 6:23. Another powerful lyricism about racism but he also links it to Gang violence, etc
we are all uniquely talented individuals. dave jus has the heart, tenacity and discipline to do what nearly everyone else doesn't. we all can its all about mindset

I don’t think people realize how hard it is to rap in the cadence he’s doing, while simultaneously playing piano like that. Dave is just oozing with talent. 🔥
50 year old white woman from Glasgow 🏴 I know UK education didn’t teach me as much as this young genius did in under 5 minutes!! It is one of the greatest most important necessary performances I have ever watched and I still play it regularly, goosebumps every time!

Just you wait until your city is 75% black.
It's coming.
@@daftwod Shut up you racist prick. Who cares if your city has a black presence. That shouldn't matter at all, its people like you that make the world so much worse. Let me give you a quick history lesson also. The whole human race started out as chimpanzees then evolved to modern humans, as humans traveled around the world the different climate changed the pigmentation of the skin which is why there are different skin colours. I'll dumb it down for you - your ancestors were black you fucking idiot
@@ollie03 So what?
My ancestors ate off the floor
@@daftwod who says black people eat off the floor. You are just so dumb it’s funny. Why hate a race that has done nothing to you? Typical old white man
Amazing. I'm a 40 year old white Man, but I grew up with multicultural schools... But yeah, you can't deny it. When he speaks you have to listen, this is 1 of those pieces of art that just hits you in the chest. Because it's real. Eloquent poetry delivered with anger and passion. Dave is a musical genius. Listen to his black box cypher..... That is even more passionate. He just nails it. Because he's lived a life
I strongly believe in 20+ years we’re going to be studying Dave’s lyrics in GCSE literature
Because IQ will have dropped to the point that Shakespeare became unteachable.

Exactly my thoughts 👌🙏
Yes
Well your thoughts are racist.
Artfull Podger Go back to bed man
Chicken Nugget bunch of lies, Meghan was trash and a manipulator
18 year old guy from India, Cried listening to this even though i never saw or experienced racism in my life. Dave is one of the Goats
India has a ton of internalized racism/colourism though. If you havent experienced it firsthand you mightve seen it happen to your kinfolk or your friends
Gave me actual chills
The way he walked off at the end he knew he'd just sent a powerful message to everyone and absolutely banged the song
The way he walked off just showed how full of himself and cocky he is.
NunyVanstta135 there’s difference between full of yourself and confidence, plus why wouldn’t he be happy with himself ? The crowd loved it , he’s allowed to be cocky
NunyVanstta135 stfu and appreciate the fucking song
michelle, no thanks, I don’t appreciate things that are a load of rubbish 😴
NunyVanstta135 people like him ? What Does that even mean ? He’s allowed to be full of himself , what were you doing at his age ? Definitely not touring the world , making hundreds of thousands . Leave him be , he’s successful and proud
This is the kind of poetry that should be taught in school.
Not sure you can compare Shakespeare and a 21 year old rapper. It’s plain ignorance to suggest that this should be taught in schools over the likes of Maya Angelou and Oscar Wilde.
@@BrawsonProductions If you think that Shakespeare, Angelou & Wilde are all there is to be said for poetry, then I suggest you re-evaluate your education in English Literature.
TRawson Shakespeare’s topics simply aren’t as relevant to the modern age tho
Zoe Osborn your statement was ‘this is the kind of poetry we should be teaching’ suggesting that you would like to radically change the kind of poetry which is currently being taught i.e. from the likes of Shakespeare, Angelou and Wilde.
P E A C E philosophy is timeless, contemporary politics isn’t
This remains the most impactful Brits performance I've ever seen! 3yrs later I'm still coming back to watch it again.
One of the most important British songs and performances of the last decade and will be talked about for years to come
This man is miles ahead lyrically and emotionally in his songs more than any other rapper in the UK easy.
Jack Harbord no j hus is almost as good

By UK standards. This ain't touching mos def, kweli and common at the same age.
We’ll look back in 20 years and realise how good Dave really was
May I just add he is only 21 🤝
I'm looking at it now and realising bro, why wait 😂
Patrick Carey facts
Whose waiting, not me...
I already know
This song is still so beautiful
Black isn't a single colour there's shades to it.....
That line is so true. Enough said.
"Equality's a right, it doesn't deserve credit".
Such truth in his words ❤️
Even now he is still underrated
@Cyberduck which people? Your people or my people, or her people or his people. 🤨
Lol this guy was racist himself. Plus the UK is 3% black people, yet over half of the nominees were black in fear of being labelled racist. As long as black people keep portraying themselves as little people who are victims that need special attention, people will view them as little people not to hit instead of on the same level.
OneTwoMark 😂😂😂😂😂did u just say the Ik is 3% black, u really got that out ur ass
We need to protect him at all cost. Too young, too wise to have spoken all his words and thoughts already.
Silas Bodebjerg yep
Get a matress. you are already sleeping on him
Too thick and stupid.....
Some right cunts showing off their cuntiness on this post. Proving Daves point, nice one cunts 👍🏼
Why protect such racism?
Still the most powerful song I’ve ever heard
Used this in an assembly last week for Black History Month at my secondary school to show pupils why it is so important that we ALL have an understanding of all aspects of Black history. It has had such a positive impact and explained it in much better words than I ever could. SUCH a powerful song, thank you Dave for writing it ❤ one of the greatest

Now that Heart Attack is out, I can confidently say that Dave is not only gonna be the best rapper the UK has ever produced, but is quite literally a genius. Only 23, he’s done so much in 6 years, but will fosho become one of the greatest artists of all time.
I’m not black. I’m Indian and only half at that, but because the colour of my skin I feel a lot of what he is saying. I’ve lived my whole life in Canada, I was born here. Obviously I know I’m not the same but as my skin is brown and I look different from most people around me I feel lost. I don’t know my history. People make fun of me. I’m in the wrong for being me. Thank you for this song.
fam yu and me both.. sri lankan here in london. our struggle may not be as harsh compared to that of our ancestors, but you can definetely feel the difference in privileges even today
‘The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice, the blacker the killer the sweeter the news’ Daves wordplay is on Tupac’s level.
Frrr !!
We’re going to be studying his lyrics in gcse English soon

I'm from the US. Damn, this is the first time I've ever heard of Dave and my first exposure to his work was this masterpiece. I feel like I got hit by a tidal wave. Amazing.
you should definitely listen to more of him, such a fantastic artist
You should listen to the UK scene more then mate, other great lyrical rappers are Kano, Little Simz, Skepta, Ghetts, Stormzy, JME, Fredo, and Slowthai
@Roger Lee you just now heard this? This is my point I found 2019 the original video. America needs this song so bad! We gotta put on social media! We need this here, yet our radios won’t play. Satellite won’t play it.
This is one of the most lyrically impressive things I've ever seen. Incredible.
Crazy how Dave is single-handedly bettering an entire generation.
Dave is a true inspiration, he diesnt real about drugs, money or fcking bitches, he raps about real shit, the truth, things tht need 2 be heard about, he is a legend a one if a kind artist, person, much love brudda keep grinding ❤ keep spreading positivity and love ❤ love from Manchester ❤
He isn’t but cheers
@@novelist5380 safe mate
@Matt last time I checked the less racism there was, the better?
Matt just because you haven’t seen it online doesn’t mean he hasn’t lived with it growing up. Your ignorance is truly something, to think that you can just say the racism he’s faced just didn’t happen because it didn’t involve you.

Still having goosebumps in 2023💙🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm a 67 year old white guy who hasn't been brought up in the culture of rap music but the sheer passion, intensity and honesty of this song and performance completely blew me away at the time and still does watching it back. You won't ever see anything better at the BRITS.
This guy had my attention throughout the whole performance. No fireworks, no dancers just a piano and a message.
I did find the piano a bit distracting not gonna lie 😂
You need to see your Dr.
@Smash A Commie Silly and chipped.
@Little Normani I am what?
I know many don't know who Jack Merrit is, he was a victim in the London Bridge attack in the U.K. who died. He was a prison rehabilitation officer in the U.K., who had worked personally with Dave's brother who is in jail. He gave Jack's parents tickets to watch this at the BRITs and they had no idea it included that extra verse and were "moved to tears" .
Grenfell tower was a tower block in London that went on fire and many people died and left thousands displaced with no hope despite governments empty promises.
Windrush generation is also another refrence to a horrifying act by the incapable government.
Thank you
I did not know about the details about Jack Merrit but listening to this back after reading this managed to bring me to tears
Respect, big up from Norf Weezy
The wind rush generation is the generation of Caribbean people who came to the Uk I’m the 1960s as they were offered opportunities but received no help or anything when arriving
@@blueberryxbugaboo6902 What’s worse is they were literally invited, people from colonies were invited after WW2 due to labour shortages but the government deported many of them as time went on, from what I know it’s because they weren’t documented properly which the government used against them.
"Loud in our laughter, silent in our suffering"... That really hits.
I keep coming back to this song. One of the most powerful performances I've ever seen.
Not sure if it was by intent but "loud in our laughter, silent in our suffering" translates to L.O.L..S.O.S
Dave's a poet
Ain’t this the poetry we should study in school?
🤣 No.
Should be studying Kendrick

The fact this performance still randomly crosses my mind. Had to come back and hear it again. Still gives me chills man.
This song brought tears to my eyes this morning. Being black is NOT a crime. We don't choose it but we cherish it.

To the U.K. hip hop folks... the crown is yours. We Americans clearly don’t want quality anymore. Take it and run with it. Just bring it back to what it should be. Absolute quality.
Its been ours for 10 years but cheers 🤘
bruh this nigga listening to lil pump and saying hiphop in the US is shit. There are so many good rappers still in the US
Blackman JPEG in the mainstream? GTFOH. Kendrick and Cole are our only REAL soldiers and they get pushed aside for whack ass Cardi B, Young Thug, and everyone else that can’t seem to complete a f*cking sentence. It’s strip club music at best, which coincidently is where it stemmed from. Is there quality? In small pockets perhaps, but nothing on scale of the trash that’s being pumped out 24-7 in major markets. Til Drake can find a team to ghostwrite a rebuttal for Adidon, you can miss me with the bs.
Uk hip-hop surpassed American hip-hop long ago because it is more intellectual and political. I think USA hip-hop became to much about selling record and being shallow to appeal to white audiences. True fact the region in the USA that buys the most hip-hop is Utah one of the whitest regions in the USA because white Americans consume more hip-hop that black people in the USA, which is why mainstream US hip-hop doesn’t say anything political as not to upset their target white audience who want black stereotypes like the mumble rappers and hoes with big butts and boobs like Niki Minaj or Cardi B rapping nonsense
@@Delboy0 I agree 100%
He is the best current rapper and he earned that title with We're All Alone In This Together, the best rap album since To Pimp A Butterfly. The craziest thing is that he's just getting started, he is a generational talent in rap, and people need to recognize him the same way we recognized generational talents like Eminem, Tupac, Lil Wayne, and Kendrick in year's past. I have no doubt that by the end of his career he will be one of the best rappers of all time, right there with the names I listed before.
He's already better than them, if you ask me. He's just not American. So, he doesn't occupy the same level of visibility. Thank goodness for the Internet, though. Anyone can now come across his greatness and appreciate it.
@@beedebawng2556 WOAH CHILL ON THAT. He doesn’t have the discography to be even close to their level yet, but I think he’ll definitely get to be at the same level eventually. He has that kind of talent
[Verse 1]
Look, black is beautiful, black is excellent
Black is pain, black is joy, black is evident
Workin' twice as hard as the people you know you're better than
'Cause you need to do double what they do so you can level them
Black is so much deeper than just African-American
Our heritage been severed, you never got to experiment
With family trees, 'cause they teach you 'bout famine and greed
Show you pictures of our fam on their knees
Tell us we used to be barbaric, we had actual queens
Black is watchin' child soldiers gettin' killed by other children
Feelin' sick so quick, this could have happened to me
Mummy watchin' tellin' stories 'bout your dad and your niece, listen
The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
Kid dies, the blacker the killer, the sweeter the news
And if he's white, you give him a chance, he's ill and confused
If he's black he's probably armed, you see him and shoot, look
[Verse 2]
Black is growin' up around the barbershop
Mummy sayin', "Stay away from trouble, you’re in yard a lot"
Studying for ages, appreciatin' the chance you got
'Cause black is in your blood, and you ain't even got the heart to stop
Black is steppin' in for your brothers because your father's gone
Standin' by your children when you haven't proven karma wrong
Black is doin' all of the above, then going corner shop
Tryna help a lady cross the road to have her walkin' off
Black is growin' up around your family and makin' it
Being forced to leave the place you love because there's hate in it
People say you're faking it, never stay for change in it
But black is bein' jealous, you'd be dead if you had stayed in it
Black is strugglin' to find your history and tracing it
You don't know the truth about your race 'cause they're erasin' it
Black has got a really sour flavour, here's a taste of it
But black is all I know, there ain't a thing that I would change in it
[Verse 3]
Look, black isn't a single colour, man, there's shades to it
Her hair's straight and thick, but mine's got waves in it
Black is not divisive, they been lyin' and I'm hating it
Black has never been a competition, we're all making it
Black is deadly
Black is when you're freezin' in your home and you can't get sleep, but never feelin' empty
'Cause you got twenty cousins in your country living stress-free
Walkin' for their water, daughter wrapped inside a bedsheet
Black is distant
It's representin' countries that never even existed while your grandmother was livin'
Black is my Ghanaian brother readin' into scriptures
Doin' research on his lineage, findin' out that he's Egyptian
Black is people namin' your countries on what they trade most
Coast of Ivory, Gold Coast, and the Grain Coast
But most importantly to show how deep all this pain goes
West Africa, Benin, they called it slave coast
Black is so confusin', 'cause the culture? They're in love with it
Take our features when they want and have their fun with it
Never seem to help with all the things we know would come with it
Loud in our laughter, silent in our sufferin'
Black is bein' strong inside and facing defeat
Poverty made me a beast, I battled the law in the streets
We all struggled, but your struggle ain't a struggle like me
Well how could it be when your people gave us the odds that we beat?
I mean, bloody hell, what about our brothers that are stuck in jail?
That couldn't bust a bail, they held a bird and gotta live with it
Black is bein' guilty until proven that you're innocent
Black is sayin', "Free all my people stuck inside them prison cells"
Think it's funny, we ain't got nothin' to say to them
Unconditional love is strange to them, it's amazin' 'em
Black has really got the sweetest flavour, here's a taste of it
But black is all I know, there ain't a thing that I would change in it
[Verse 4]
It is racist whether or not it feels racist
The truth is our Prime Minister is a real racist
They say, "You should be grateful we're the least racist"
I say the least racist is still racist
And if somebody hasn't said it
Equality is a right, it doesn't deserve credit
Now if you don't want to get it, then you're never gonna get it
How the news treats Kate versus how they treated Megan
Rest in Peace Jack Merritt, you're my brother in arms
There's tears in our eyes and love in our hearts
We never had the same background, culture, colour, or past
But you devoted your life to giving others a chance
And for that, I'm so taken aback
Because it gave us all a voice, I have to say it for Jack
As a young black man seeing paper and crack
Giving tougher sentences, it's just papering cracks
All he would want is unity, funding for communities
Equal opportunities, people under scrutiny
No more immunity, way less hatred
More conservation, less deforestation
We want rehabilitation, now that would be amazing
But Grenfell victims still need accommodation
And we still need support for the Windrush generation
Reparations for the time our people spent on plantations
I'm done
respect for spending time on that
thanks for putting up the lyrics yo

Watched brits 2022 tonight, this performance still hasn’t been topped!! Daves music is real life
he could’ve gone up there and performed a catchy hit that the audience would sing along too and instead he chose the controversial one that the media and uk slated him for to prove a point. and good for him for paying tribute to jack and saskia, i had no idea he know the victims personally
CAM call me cynical, but I think he also chose it because he knows of all the songs, it’ll engage the most people watching on tv at home - people who don’t listen to rap will be engaged by him because of his accusations and diatribe against the government.
CAM The media didn’t slate him. The media doled praise on him. This nonsense is the mainstream, it is Dave’s ideology that dominates our institutions. Dave is just a propaganda tool.

Intellectually the best rapper ever. Not chatting about cars money and robbing people delivering a message

Aidan Marley yes the race card message nothing new then
Dedinatley a refreshing top u.k rapper but never ever the greatest intellectual rapper..... Nas and co without a doubt would've inspired him. But better than the rest of these boring, drug talking, story pretender tellers that rap today
This statement shows you know very little about rap. Sure, Dave is astoundingly talented, an amazing lyricist and is killing it at the moment.. but the best ever? I'd hold off on that. Artists like Akala, Skepta, JME and Kano have been in the game a lot longer and slaying it with intellectually provocative and powerful lyrics for going on 15 years now. In an ideal word it shouldn't come down to comparisons of who is the best ever, or who is better than who. We should learn to appreciate each and every one of them equally and individually, and enjoy their message and their art. It's not a competition, as much as the charts would like to tell you.
Aidan Marley He’s hard but relax with these statements
Are you dumb? Great performance, but Dave is a long way off being the most intellectual artist ever. I don't even think he has the capacity to do that. Very promising artist nonetheless.
It’s the fact he added a verse no one knew about and spoke the truth is why he didn’t win a award from it
They don’t like hearing the truth
