Me too. I love his voice and clean language. Race to express who we are, to me is not a subject. We're all humans, good or bad. It is a shame that when we talk about somebody we have to use the color of our skin for some fools to understand who we/they are.
he has so much musicality, laden with musical integrity, i hear blues jazz and even deep south louisiana folk. so so proud of this young man with a deep conscious soul. His music is subtlyevocative and evokess and era gone by. Well done michael for fusing both worlds. A modern classic for sure.
This song makes me smile thinking of one of the best things of my 11 years in Baltimore: the joy of a black man smile, the warmth of their words, the flow of their moves, the amazing style to carry on with dignity in a society that discriminates against them. I fell in love with their culture and their pride.
I'm a white woman of middle years and I love this. I have a very eclectic taste (of many genres) but have loved 'black music' since I was a little girl. I wasn't introduced to it; simply that this music communicated/connected with my soul
In this summer I found out this great singer..Michael.Kiwanuka, watching the big littlee lies serie..I like so much the soundtrack...right now I follow all the michael 's musical work .
Una rola super chingona 😀 increible el video tambien, quien sabe cuantos años han pasado desde que apareció el último digno representante del Soul y de la música afrodesendiente (la mayoría de los que hay hoy en día dejan muchísimo que desear). esta canción, la letra, el ritmo, el rango vocal del cantante y los coristas, Todo es encantador. El mundo de la música popular no está decayendo despues de todo.
Holly s**** I'm a black man on a white world living In Bahia, Brazil, and I love this song, it chills me up and make me wanna dance in the way i know how, with happiness. Man I love jazz, I love being black and all that was taken from us, we gonna take back, I believe. Stay strong everyone

@Ted Bundy he's still british my friend, all he probably knows besides living in a algerian family is british culture, the reason he made the song is probably because him living in a white predominant society
@Ted Bundy being British is a nationality not an ethnicity. He's not caucasian, but he's British. What if he told you he was British? Shouldn't expect anything less from a guy with Ted Bundy as their name though.

Me, I am so sad. They want all us black people dead, here in Brazil happens the same. We had also a recent case in Rio with a black boy called João Pedro. I'm tired of this!
I had his first album and was excited for this single before Adele tweeted it BUT I'm so glad she did. If it brings him more fans then that's a bonus!!!

GREAT song!!! GREAT lyrics!!! And for sure, it should be a GREAT new album!!! : )) : )) Thank god, there are black men like you, in this ( also white, yes ) world!!! Congratulations dear Michael!!!
I'm Caucasian 73 female and love this!! Love all his songs...Makes me think of how difficult it really is ...his words..especially my concern for my biracial grandkids...crazy world.😮💨😮💨
When I heard this on the radio I genuinely thought it was classic soul/rhythm and blues. Think I've found a new favourite sound.
Check out his debut album
It is reminiscent of early soul/RnB - takes me back to my youth. I love this and all his other music I have heard so far :)
Me too. I love his voice and clean language.
Race to express who we are, to me is not a subject. We're all humans, good or bad. It is a shame that when we talk about somebody we have to use the color of our skin for some fools to understand who we/they are.
👍👍👍
Michael Kiwanuka is a phenomenal artists. Glad I discovered him.
Uganda we are proud of our son..His music is food for the soul.Keep the🇺🇬🇺🇬 flag high brother
he has so much musicality, laden with musical integrity, i hear blues jazz and even deep south louisiana folk. so so proud of this young man with a deep conscious soul. His music is subtlyevocative and evokess and era gone by. Well done michael for fusing both worlds. A modern classic for sure.
Simplesmente magnífico! Sou professor no Amazonas, Brazil! Saiba que vou trabalhar sua música com meus alunos.

Same here. The entire video is art. Very well done.

Sooooo goood! And the whole band is damn good! Oh, their drummer...he's just really talented.
You can't hear this song without getting up and dancing.
Great song !
Respect to this man...a real artist with great talent...greetings from 🇲🇦 north Africa

Makes me wanna die just so I can come back- hopefully as black as all black can be. Paleeez, if there is a god.
I saw this song live at green man 2022
@@donaltrump7121 says the white man that have the biggest crime rate of us all🤣
Aaaaaaand the most pathetic, bourgeois white liberal Virtue-Signal Award of the year goes to…
Ah yes, the culture of exponential violent crime rates, single motherhood and leeching off of government funds
this is beautiful, Thanks to the get down for sending me here and finding about this piece of art
What a Strange Fruit this beautiful piece is. So much heart and SOUL! Molo vibes.
Spectacular cinematography and a heartwarming song!
Brilliant timing...I expect to hear this song for years to come...
Brilliant! my heart is not stopping clapping with the music. I am in love!
I love the drum and bass on this. Awesome rythem.
Fun fact: The man who directed this video (Hiro Murai) also directed This is America
This artist is very talented and I believe his music will go around the world. Greetings from Greece.
So fresh. This gentleman is going places. I know it.
you look white. Do white people listen to this kind of song too?
+DasMann yeah we aren't racist
DasMann I can't speak for all white people, but I love this kind of music.

this song repeats itself just like history does....good song... symbolic
A powerful artist of our times!!!
omg the last frames with the boy falling, so profound and unsettling.
Great song and video. Bravo.
I love The Get Down so fucking much!
Sam Peters I'm so sad it's not coming back. It was so good.
Came here after just hearing the song on a TV show- can't believe I never heard this before- so amazing and talented
shameless?
This is amazing! Thank you Mike for delighting us with this master piece.
Incredible! the best video, the best music and the best singer! when I see this video, I feel pain and hope too! thanks! ✊🏽❤️❤️❤️✨

In this summer I found out this great singer..Michael.Kiwanuka, watching the big littlee lies serie..I like so much the soundtrack...right now
I follow all the michael 's musical work
.
Reminds me of Marvin Gaye !! Love it
same!
Especially from 1:47, goosebumps.
Couldn't believe this is a new song. Instant classic!
Just bought tickets to see him in Newcastle upon Tyne
I guess you would consider Bob Marley a 'sell out' the same way...cause he stood up for Black Lives as well...
Una rola super chingona 😀 increible el video tambien, quien sabe cuantos años han pasado desde que apareció el último digno representante del Soul y de la música afrodesendiente (la mayoría de los que hay hoy en día dejan muchísimo que desear). esta canción, la letra, el ritmo, el rango vocal del cantante y los coristas, Todo es encantador. El mundo de la música popular no está decayendo despues de todo.
Yio
Holly s**** I'm a black man on a white world living In Bahia, Brazil, and I love this song, it chills me up and make me wanna dance in the way i know how, with happiness. Man I love jazz, I love being black and all that was taken from us, we gonna take back, I believe. Stay strong everyone

I am so grateful I got to see him live! He's incredible!!!! And his guitar playing skills... Jeez...
I could relate to this song very much right now. But I count my blessing and thank the most high I have my health.
I've been low, I've been high
I've been told all my lies
I've got nothing left to pray
I've got nothing left to say
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm in love, but I'm still sad
I've found peace, but I'm not glad
All my nights and all my days
I've been trying the wrong way
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I feel like I've been here before
I feel that knocking on my door
I feel like I've been here before
I feel that knocking on my door
And I've lost everything I had
And I'm not angry and I'm not mad
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I've been low and I've been high
I've been told all my lies
I've got nothing here to pray
And I've got nothing left to say
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm in love, but I'm still sad
I've found peace, but I'm not glad
All my nights and all my days
I've been trying the wrong way
I don't mind who I am
I don't mind who you are
I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong
Oh it's alright, it's alright
Oh it's alright
Oh it's alright, It's alright

Agnostic since 1st album . YT hooks me up with 3rd album . My heart melts . Spend couple hours on YT. Listening .
Talented young man, exciting times for British music.
@Ted Bundy Then what is he ?
@Ted Bundy he's British he was born in the UK so what if he's parents are from nigeria
@Ted Bundy he's still british my friend, all he probably knows besides living in a algerian family is british culture, the reason he made the song is probably because him living in a white predominant society
@Ted Bundy being British is a nationality not an ethnicity. He's not caucasian, but he's British. What if he told you he was British?

Thank you!
Just fallen in love with this guys's music. Brother keep on repping. Much love
Just heard this used in an amazing Alvin Ailey dance piece. Sent chills down my spine. Amazing work of music.
Who else ...comeback and listen to this after what is happening in 2020😢
Me, I am so sad. They want all us black people dead, here in Brazil happens the same. We had also a recent case in Rio with a black boy called João Pedro. I'm tired of this!
Regiane Sousa sometimes I asked my self what my race has done to be treated like this ?😞😔
🙏
Me, I love Michaels voice, but now had to listen to it again. Black man in a sad world :(
I only wish we could see trough the eyes of others
Muito bom!
The Get Down also brought me here...Also, this is a great song and video.
This artist is beautiful. In every way.
Beautiful song makes my heart hurt 😞the pain
I had his first album and was excited for this single before Adele tweeted it BUT I'm so glad she did. If it brings him more fans then that's a bonus!!!
The get down put me on ✊🏾
Seriously, I wish I had discovered Michael before now. He is truly like a male Nina Simone for today's generation.
So true
I was wondering and that's it he does remind me of Nina Simone...👍🏿👍🏿
this generations Nina Simone is such a great way to describe Michael!
Super well said!!
This singer has to be on the radio.
Amazing!!! Pure soul
Adele brought me here and I am not regretting THIS IS GLORIOUS. thanks mom, it was worth it
Love this SONG CUZZ IM BLACC
did adele cover this? sorry didn't know of this, links to adele much appreciated
Thanks, Nick Mulvey for leading me to this talented artist! Powerful song, powerful talent.
this is amazing
I'm here because of the Alabama Shakes on Pandora. This gentleman is amazing. His voice is captivating, and his songs are unique. Bless you and I sincerely hope you get the recognition you deserve.
INCROYABLE
We all have certain parts of history we connect with for whatever reason. In my opinion he his choosing to tell a story that is not necessarily his own. In doing so he is paying respect to those who actually went through the things he is singing about. But I think he is making a connection to recent events.
Personally listening to the song reminds me that nothing can stop you, because my people are still here. I've listened to a lot Kiwanuka and all his music is well written. Which would have me believe that everything about this song is intentional, including the repetition.
With songs like this, I think its a huge misconception that Black people believe as if the have a monopoly on oppression. Most of us are more sensitive to the plight of all people every where because of the history of our people.
GREAT song!!! GREAT lyrics!!! And for sure, it should be a GREAT new album!!! : )) : ))
Thank god, there are black men like you, in this ( also white, yes ) world!!!
Congratulations dear Michael!!!
Beautiful song.
I've listened to this song because of Bad little lies, love at first note. Absolutely amazing. IN LOVE.
Timeless
I'm Caucasian 73 female and love this!! Love all his songs...Makes me think of how difficult it really is ...his words..especially my concern for my biracial grandkids...crazy world.😮💨😮💨
great song , quite a lot of symbolism within this video I would say ? even though I can only guess parts
+Don ND I was thinking the same thing, seeing him "rise above" the oppression and everything else holding him down....some deep symbolism. XD
+Tyjon Davis FR, I never saw it that way but that would make a lot of sense
but there is a lot going on
+Don ND I thought he died cause the cop car killed him
As a black child it has helped me through high school. Thank you
Can’t get enough of this guy.....so talented
Been there bro... Still there in fact.
That song is a real drive, bravo
Wow this man is a true artist all his music is wonderful
His style is so damn refreshing. What ever happened to talented artist? They are about as rare as it gets.
Hello from Russia. I like your music.
Frantz Fanon, baby...love this!
We are all human, some good, some bad. Your music is perfection.
Wonderful, this video is incredible. I was feeling myself flying with this boy. BRAVOOOOOO
