Young man, your life was spared for a reason let that pain save lives.. Let your story be the catalyst for change and hope in your community.. Let the gift GOD has given you in your music, make a difference with direction and Strength.. You lost 3 brothers but you can help save a generation.. Much respect my young brother....💯
Just wanted to let u know I stumbled upon ur comment & I gotta tell u bro , it is extremely powerful, extremely inspiring & was a breath of fresh air to read . I dunno if u will ever see my reply here but I had to let u know just how powerful words truly are , (more than I can possibly attempt to explain) I truly appreciate ur comment & i think it's pretty safe to say i know I'm not the only one ,lol!!
it fanned the flame in my heart.
KEEP BEING A WORLD CHANGER! YOU ROCK BRO!!
GOD BLESS!! & I'll definitely be seeing ya, when God calls us both home.
@@royalvibes4433 i truly appreciate your kind words.. It's so sad that this young man has this responsibility on his shoulders, at this young age.. He is so gifted and if mentored properly the things he can do.. It's perplexing that all he knows in his life is death and destruction, and it comes out in his music.. I'm so tired of seeing my young brother's keep needing to make these songs and videos of killing and guns, because thats all they have known all their lives.. And the people in the music industry exploit them for gain, instead of traning them to turn that death and destruction into something positive to hear and maybe save a generation.....😢
John Chucky Tomlinson indeed
KING DARRIUS yea buddy ass off the shits GOD had a plan for him folkz he needed more from him
What’s sad is for every one Yungeen Ace or Kodak Black there are 10,000,000 people without a voice.
He survived for a reason God has a plan for him.

I respect Yungeen Ace he been thru so much ❤️ I love you brudda
Hope bro get out his city cause he really up next rip to yo bruddas
He out he said they banned him from Jacksonville on an interview
He not coming back
@@Drecofrmtha4 who banning him
why you think he trying to leave the city? this duval bruh
He’s in Houston now
I live in Jacksonville where this triple murder happened. I spoke to the homicide detective who was on the scene. Over 100 rounds of 7.62x39 shot into the car and young men. For people not familiar that’s an AK47 or Draco most likely. That is unbelievable firepower. To have the time to fire that much at that location with no witnesses is unbelievable. This young man is living with a horrible tragedy, my heart goes out to him and his family. I’m not a very religious person but I can’t not believe a higher power didn’t save him that night. I wish him healing and peace. He lived through a nightmare only now to try and make sense of the senseless.
It’s a shame that some people think this music is ignorant, but then fail to realize a lot of these guys really have pain and have gone through some tough situations.
Question is it just me crying over here?😭😢😔
Stephanie Osorio man I started tearing up too that shit was deep
Yh
“Imma Make Them Feel This One” We Feel It 💯
My mans is hurting bruh 🙏🏾 prayers up keep grinding yo
After telling his story , you see how people still have the heart to dislikes this video. Smfh
Right
Ikr
I cannot heal all this pain when I'm constantly hurt
That's why I hope for the best but I prepare for the worst
He couldn't go to his brothers funeral 😐😕😭
I couldn’t go to my brother funeral either💔
@@MoniqueChatman why not? U were locked up?
Same with x sis
Deep asf a lotta pain behind all this
*r.i.p to yo brothers.*
*4 ( including you ) was in the car, 3 died, that means God gave you a second chance in life, make something out of it* 💟
Ace dealing with some serious pain. I’m glad he did the interview and talked about what happened. Sad 🙏🏽❤️
His life was spared for a reason. God wasn’t done with him. He’s here for a purpose. He feels like it’s his fault because he’s the only one that made it out. He feels like since he’s older he’s the protector and their lives were in his hands. I know he has ptsd.
That’s so sad man , I couldn’t imagine seeing my brothers die 😭 he’s so strong
Jacksonville a crazy place man das why i got out of there
Man and its worst now
@@deangelobrown7391 for reals👌💯
It's hard down here in Jacksonville man u just got to pray to the lord

@@jabreelbrown4566 you sure it was God 🤔
'some days we ain't eat" felt that
i listen to him everyday i really fw he real
I lost 7 people within 1.5 years, plus a boyfriend, I was 18, I'm 40, and I'm STILL fkd up about it.
He'll NEVER be the same.
"I aint go with him...." that hit. I have survivors guilt too. When 911 hit my bros went to Afghanistan but my mom had a medical emergency and I became undeployable and then I got a DUI coming on base , so I was held behind on admin. I lost 12 guys and 4 of them Id just finished doing training with. I was going nuts because reports were coming guys were getting hit but they werent releasing names pending family notifications. I was one of the best trained shooters and from the hood so I felt nobody could protect my boys like I could because my instincts were gold. I just always feel had I been there I shouldve died with them, saved them , or just been there period.
Love his music ... Super talented ... He tell his story through his music.. Voice is super dope.. I listen to his music everyday.. His songs Murdah, Pain, true story, hold me down & love is my favorite songs ..❤
Ray Whitman 👏🏾👏🏾 also wanted and find myself
@@marquaviusthefirst9260 I got those songs downloaded also lol

he’s so underrated.. 💔 rip all of them 💔
You can see the pain in his eyes... god bless him frl
Some of the saddest stuff I’ve ever heard I couldn’t imagine
“You feel what I’m sayin”
He said 'So Boom'...those two words let me know he really from the hood
U lame...
U make no sense cuh
Makes plenty of sense
I stg I knew soon as he said that
Vibes MUSIV3 nah u lame asf cause youn know what it mean 👎🏽
I could a sworn he was singing pain otl but he was just saying it in between his words
Amir's Place I thought he was singing Don’t know why
Son strong, you can see the pain in his eyes
I got to meet ace he cool af and humble
Imagine him leaving with his brothers tells mom bye and then boom he’s in Critical condition, man I’m sorry for your loss and rip to your bruddas keep thuggin and dropping bangers
He's really a smart and insightful person, RIP to his brothers and long live to him.
When they asked him what hurt the most and he said “I ain’t go with em” , that’s some real shit right there 💯👌🏾
My dawg is inspiration. They going feel you don’t have a choice too you too real and your story is like no other 💪🏾❤️💯
This nigga strong he get to Express his self and tell the fans what really happen ace stay strong u gone be big
#ace and yb sound alike
Shit gave me the chills listen to his story 😫🙏🏾
Most heartbreaking interview and it hit me hard
Damn thats a real story, real pain
This shit made me cry. Keep your head up Ace
Respect for this man. Hope he finds his happiness.
This had me crying 😥😫.
That's real pain 💔 I hope he uses it as hunger instead of depression
I was in a accident when one of my best friends dies in front of me. His mom won't talk to none of us that was in the car. Shit hurt fr. I feel yungeen
It's your fault
Everybody can't connect with that type of struggle
Az nnajjn hmmm s e jjsjshsksms h-
wat do you mean by dat bade?
y would you want too
i wanna see him do good so bad, he deserve it mane 💯
It's sad because his brothers looked up to him cause he was an up and coming rapper who could support them out the mud. R.I.P to his Brothers but he got them into this mess, in one of his songs he shot at a rapper and that same rapper is the one claiming the bodies.
You can hear the pain in his voice
Music is the best way to express yourself people take you more serious that way anyway
You can feel the pain in that mans voice
The song murder is a smash
Alex G fr
Y’all niggas big cappin
I think what hurt the most for him was not only being the lone survivor out of 4 brothers but he said he didn’t even get to go to the funerals so he never got the proper good bye 🥹 I know he is chosen. 🙏🏽
Its crazy bro now you gotta grind fasho it’s mandatory you live for yo brothers 💯💯
Best rapper out currently. Love how raw and real everything he spits is. RIP 23 x2 🗣
BRUH YOU MESSED UP RIP 2x23x4
Sometimes the worst experiences make the greatest experiences possible. Let the bad things motivate you to go twice as hard next time. Good luck everyone.
This was sad 😢 keep going bro💯💪🏾
I love you so much
Your song pain tho....i can't listen to it without crying 💯💯
Ace Is A Beautiful Human , Authentic .
Damn that's crazy💯
Too much for one nigga to deal with ion even listen to this nigga music but I respect the hell outta him for staying strong after that traumatic ass shit
Dis really made me cry 😭😭😭😭😭😭😟💔
"i didnt go with them i mean like we was susposed to all go together" damn thats tuff. Everyday i tell my brothers we all gone go at the same time, we all gone die together. My dad and mom where born in jacksonville but good thing they moved from there to roseland like way down south but still wasnt a good neighborhood. gunshots every night, drug dealers, GD's and GDK's and all that crazy stuff. The sad thing is no one really undertands what your going through because the people that YOU loved that died impacted YOU the most even if other people knew them. Because you've had diffrent experiences with them. ~we all go together~
rest up soulja’s💔 Today 6/5/2019 hbd 2️⃣3️⃣💯
I cried watching this can’t image how it feel to lose 3 ppl you love at once not being able to save them not knowing who to help while tryna save yourself too I hope he make it 🙏🏾
This sad to many people dying now and days it’s really sad but you gotta keep pushing keep making this money they would want you too keep grinding and thriving you gon be up there one day ❤️
