Von's music and MANY others is an eye opening testimony of the violence, turmoil, and anguish of Poor segregated communities. His music along with his peers and opps music should be studied. Not by law enforcement but by social scientists, psychologists, and doctor's. Only in hopes to truly understand the complexity of these situations. And to figure out a solution to these problems in modern, segregated, impoverished communities.
This. What you just said is highkey facts. But politics are a big part of the problem. They turn their backs on these people. They call them thugs and just lowlife gangsters with not even a single thought about how these people ended up in these situations. Some of these kids are born into these gang wars, they have no options. Just by being born somewhere they sometimes are targets.
True, parents and other people listen to these songs and call these people murderers or gangsters, or criminals who should be locked up or killed. But what they don’t know is that these rappers are talking about their pain and struggles in life from being in the hood but no one puts the pieces together to try and help them.
I recommended this to Bruce in the comments a few vids ago and had mad people replying to me saying it would be a boring video and I think they were very wrong. Its a shorter one but theres a lot to unpack in this song and as usual Bruce did a great job.
This guy was a legend. I was just listening to more of his music yesterday. It hit harder once I remembered he was dead and there will be no more stories. I don’t like to judge people, I’m not a gangster but I would never judge them because they ain’t have the best environment to grow up in! Von’s music should be a eye opener to people and the government to help these guys out of the trap they’ve found themselves in. Prayers out to the families of lost soldiers!
I love this guy "that just means he got clocked" no lawyer says that 😂😂🤣🤣 I'm calling this dude if anything ever happens he probably the type of lawyer to defend you then smoke a backwoods with you in the alley behind the courthouse😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
The round table is 100% a go in my opinion. I’ll be all over that video brotha. Keep educating and letting people know how it works because it’s not worth a damn in the end to live that life like that.
Von was changing his life for the better. Bruce I appreciate you reacting to this. He had a troubled past and sometime no matter how good you try to turn things around it’s too late and the bad karma catches up to you. Just by his content in this you could tell he was changing trying to elevate. and I love how you spoke about black women thank you for acknowledging our strength ! Sharing this with all my friends stay blessed Bruce 🙂
Idk, this was the same album he made Back Again. It seems to me he was trying to clean up his image a bit, because he didnt want to rub off on kids and turn them violent, but he was still bent on killing rivals like Wooski
3:49 he wasn't saying "fuck that ski mask" as in he doesn't care. He was saying "fuck that! Ski mask," as in fuck this BS im putting on the ski mask and gonna do a drill.
Hey Mr. Rivers, if anyone can bring people together to make a change you can Sir ( Also the women deserve it ). I wish there was more like you out there as I am working hard myself in hopes to help as many as possible it . I truly believe that with the right help we can all get better. Smiles and Happiness instead of Frowns and sadness.
6:22 I really appreciate your understanding and appreciation for black women but as a young black girl (16) I can tell you that a lot of these dudes moms encourage it and think it's cute. My little cousin Z'z mom was encouraging him to join the same gang that got his dad murdered (My cousin Mann who wanted to do better to give his son a better life was killed infront of his mom's house in the middle of the night). What really killed me and my mom is that they put a red bandana in his pocket to symbolize the street life he was trying to get away from before he died. It would be better if they put down the guns and as fathers stopped putting him in their young son's hands and instead encouraged them to do better in school. There's no reason why black women are the most educated demographic in the nation above white men with business that are thriving and or male counterparts are still behind us. If there are any black men and boys reading this take more pride in your education and we could at least get to a better place as a community economically.
while ganglife thrives in the black male understand that some of those men had a gun around to protect they family from someone else with one or thoughts on harming them in some way. but i agree with you it isnt the women but if you grow up in that environment it’s survival for everyone and only some use the heart God gave them for good❤️
@Francoeur La i live in Rockford but in chi everyday. My now x boyfriend grew up with von in parkwaygardens..i never was able to meet him but watched and talked to him and few times.. he did a lot for his people and it sucks he was killed😭
I think that round table talk is an amazing idea and is well over due.. More Blessings to you for having such a heart & trying to help.. My family haven't lost many love ones to the streets.. But the one's we've lost to street violence were based of other people reckless behavior.. I thank God our boys & men aren't in that life.. Keep up the amazing work BRUCE RIVERS MUCH RESPECT 🙏🏾
First time I watched u??? I thought u was here to tear down our struggle BUT honestly???? YOU ARE reallier THEN most killas I know!!!! Thank MY guy!!!!!!
I love how von always said “shorty” instead of self snitching that way the feds can never say he did sum lol if they ever tried to use his music against him
maan alot of folks wish it was like back in the day wit just scrappin but if the opps gotta pole u better have one too.. if they want it that way it gotta be or you’ll never see another day💯
I would love for a round table to happen with mother’s that would be powerful to see the impact on the senseless violence taking fold in the black community!
@@Ruder6163 yup. that’s how it is most murders go unsolved but they know who did it. they just don’t have enough evidence to pin it on them. and no one testifies against them
@@user-vw4hk6pd1k I just realized Wayne is a real person. I heard G Herbo say his name. If it wasnt for this song, i would have thought Herbo was talking about the rapper
As far as ya roundtable idea u should try to get in touch with Fbg duck, La Capone, and Tooka all of there mothers they”ll do it to they already did one on there own
You can tell Bruce lowkey a fan
Not lowkey he has been saying multiple times that he is his one of his favorite artists
You must be new here
He said von was one of his favorites, because his raps are production.( something along those lines he said) so yeah he admitted to listening to him
High production
A fan indeed. Bruce A real 1
I know if von was alive he would of done put Bruce in one of his songs gave him some promo or shout out😎
Facts 💯
But he’s not
@@bximjw4365 yeah no shit😭
Yup he would

No one told me that lawyers are now taking over the internet
Very dangerous individuals.
This video has 0 dislikes that’s how fire this mans content is
@Aspen you green for that
@Aspen bruh ur fr the only dislike 💀 🤣
Now theres three pfft
It's on 64 right now lol
😂😂😭
I'd rather have Mr Rivers as my lawyer than josh Allen as my quarterback
Josh Allen is an improved Aaron Rogers
Make sure you give him the zipcode so he doesn't go to the wrong county.
Where is the correlation
Ion know pimp Allen’s kinda balling out his mind. And will probably do it for the rest of the foreseeable future

Bruh he wasn't changing his life for the better lol he was taking legit rap money and putting it back into the streets to Have his opps killed
Rip von. Glad people still reacting to his music
3:49 he wasn't saying "fuck that ski mask" as in he doesn't care. He was saying "fuck that! Ski mask," as in fuck this BS im putting on the ski mask and gonna do a drill.
“shootin up the fella home” i don’t know why this is so funny to me
He read the comments. Respect

Tbh I feel like this song was about Von and what he did in his life
Von is “Shorty”
King von, The best story teller in the rap game still!
Him saying who are pillars in the community is a hot take,watch.
Simply the Goat, I wish Bruce could have met Von in person.
King von is my favorite still hurts with him gone...nov 6th was a hard day and will be again this year😔 Thanks for doin this one💜
@Francoeur La i live in Rockford but in chi everyday. My now x boyfriend grew up with von in parkwaygardens..i never was able to meet him but watched and talked to him and few times.. he did a lot for his people and it sucks he was killed😭

Been waiting for you to do this song
I would love to see you do a set down interview like that. Love this reaction.💕
Von was a incredible storyteller
Fr one of the best in my opinion.

Now I watch this I realized he just tellin is shit we already know😂😂
Aye do a video on how you feel bout CPD gettin ready to charge Von for murder
The case was thrown out a long time ago. The papers say that he was the main suspect but there wasn’t enough evidence to prove it was Von.
@@Ruder6163 yup. that’s how it is most murders go unsolved but they know who did it. they just don’t have enough evidence to pin it on them. and no one testifies against them
Who's murder?
@@jessemorehead6219 KI
Aye I appreciate it fam!!!
Von paints a rough narrative in this one, it's the inner city life, when he said "back when I was a kid we fought with our fists" that hit hard.
He trying so hard not to say nigga😂 respect for that tho
you should definitely do a round table discussion with the mothers and families.
Bruce Bixky back wit a banger🔥😭
We do it 4 Von 🦅💙
Wow y’all really glorify somebody that promotes violence 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
you are the fella bruce
Durk & Von couldn't go to jail, nor could both get let off. That would be real bad for business
🤔🤔🤔🤔
Cap. Von was in jail half his life. And he was a nobody to businessman until recently
Thank you bruce

this is von best video of all time
Round table sounds interesting and could really do good for someone to hear it
“He popped a pole on em” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You don't want a criminal lawyer, you want a CRIMINAL lawyer
lmaoooooo he said my days it was hands and now its just pop pop pop pop pop
As far as ya roundtable idea u should try to get in touch with Fbg duck, La Capone, and Tooka all of there mothers they”ll do it to they already did one on there own
I found out it's self defence until you follow them knowing they have a weapon, fighting an unfair case right now. The opposition added to the story.
How can you argue self-defense if you start following the person?
The round table discussion sounds like a great idea.
Bruce lowkey look like a mob boss you see those two guns on his desk.
He just be flexing straps now 🤣
Fr hw really toting them thangs tho😂😂
Gotta let the opps know he ain't lackin❗❗
I love the farther you go back on his videos he has less guns 😂😂 the more he heres he's preparing for more
STRONG BLACK WOMAN NO CAP
Do “shorty with the 40-young pappy “
“Two things, one there opps and the cops”
This my favorite song on this album..
