one of the Rappers who actually speaks about Reall shit ; he has something to speak about . not just shaking ass & getting money his music tells a story
Lost my daughters dad in 2013 n lost myself for a lil but as always i kept faith with a positive attitude and always prayed to save my me. God is good and i will forever give back. Amen
+Patshawn Johnson kevin gates alwaaaaays puttin in work, but besides kevin, august, mgk and a couple others everybody else just rapping abou the lime light
I have a ton of respect for this young man. If you ever watched any of his interviews, he is very humble and has not had an easy life at all. He does alot for his family so that don't have the struggle the way he did growing up. What a naturally talented artist. I love his music and hope he goes a long way in life he deserves it! Stay up
Kidd Kidd was actually signed to gunit and then went independent. 50 didn't promote him correctly and Kidd Kidd didn't push hard enough. But he was definitely recognized
Dawg, there's no way I can play this song and not shead a tear! I'm thankful I still have my brothers...this track goes out to all of my homies who lost a family member through violence or whatever...I'm sorry for y'all lost. I know we all gotta go someday but I hope whenever that day comes we all have a shoulder to cry on.
I listened to August's music in 2014/2015 (like No Love and I luv this shit) without even knowing his story or something about him. I recently watched his documentary about his life and it made me so emotional. I've listened and watched a lot of his stuff and I can say that he definitly became one of my favorites artists. He talks about what he's been through, he shares his emotion and pain with us. He's just real. He's a source of inspiration for many people. It's my first time listening to this song and it will probably not be the last. I would have loved to be here since his debut to be able to accompany him through is journey, even if I'm just a fan. Hope he's okay and that he's taking care of himself. He deserves all the best in the world. I love him not only as a singer, but also as a person. I'm not gonna lie, I really want to see him in interview as before, because I miss him. But, better than that, I also don't want anyone to disturb his peace and tranquility. Y'all need to listen his last album, he made it with his whole heart. Love you August❤️ PS: Sorry for the possible spelling mistakes, I don't speak english.
kay kay august is nthn but the truth. One of the realest artists you will ever see. By the way he does not rap he sings. I suggest you listen to him sinh accapella. Dont hate on him when 3 million others love him....
I aint gonna lie. These past few weeks I've been seeing dudes name all over twitter. Didn't know why but yesterday I was convinced to take in his music. I'm a fan now. This song touched me deep. You can hear the pain in his voice and that's really missing in Rnb music. Keep up the good work homie. Don't change for no one. Canada awaits a live show from you.
August 7, 2013 the first time I heard August Anthony Alsina sing this song I was blown away. I knew he would make it big. Such an amazing voice and artist. Thank you August you're a true blessing 👌🏾
Straight up the worlds goin to shit real fuckin quick I live here in Idaho and I wish these racist fucks would come fuck with us here we’ll straight lay they asses down believe that
August you always had talent. I knew you would make it big . Family always comes first with you . I want more music like this ! RIP Mel man fallen soldier gone but not forgotten.
I lost my brother to suicide in November of 2021.... My my mom found him 39 seconds after he popped the trigger. Mental illness is a hot topic lately, but his music was his medicine. August been sick too, but you don't hear about that on the radio. Just Jada, and will. We use to sit in the car and listen to this song. I'll never be able to touch him, hug him. Call him. This song speaks volumes man. Screw all the hate. We all human.
🤍I felt ur words... Rest in peace. to all our dead homies ,sisters mothers, brothers , fathers,family! It's cool to be kind .. Don't follow lead .stayreal keep pushing an stay strong don't let this shit break u..scream Jesus pray to him... believe .🖤and u have my condolences
The disrespect August has been getting is crazy. He’s always been open & honest. People preach that black men need to be more emotional, but he gets hate for it. Love you Aug 💗
Nothing you can say about him will ever change my love for this guy. I’m proud of him if he like it I love it. None of them artists worth over $20 M’s haven’t been to the Hollywood parties where you have to do an act with… or sacrifice a life.
You can hear the pain in his voice when he hit them mid to high notes....R.I.P to my Uncle that got murdered and anybody else that lost somebody through a act of violence.
Watching his documentary brought this into the suggestions. I haven’t listened to this in years. I just burried my brother Tuesday. He’s now resting with his twin who was also murdered 6 years ago. My heart hurts so bad
Thank you all so much for the love and support. I’m a psychic medium so they’re still always with me. My youngest son was also born on their birthday so I will always have a physical reminder of them. He acts like them both! 🙂
Life is precious,don't lose it over something that can be avoided.we are all blessed to be here. I be shedding tears over even my enemies because you never know why but I know that I was born to love. I'm not perfect and sometimes I hurt others but I don't mind taking the fall for anyone I love.if nobody stands with you then life isn't what its meant to be. Everyone has a purpose and everything happens for a reason. I know that sometimes retaliation is necessary because I know how I feel about those I love but to things in perspective, everyone has a reason and noone can judge another's purpose in this world. Ima be by the side of everyone I love and try to make a better way for all because life isn't promised so cherish each moment.
Just lost my little brother to gun violence. Never thought I would come back to this song,finally understanding how august feels. This shit is a different type of hurt. I thank my God that he gave us many wonderful years together. All praise to YAHUWAH, THE LORD OF HOSTS. SHALOM ACHI!!
The pain conveyed through his voice in this song really hurts my ❤...stay strong august..God gave us the ability to be able to remain striong despite trials and tribulations..much 💘
August is so damn talented i swear his voice has me loving him and all his songs fml. I love this shit Benediction.is jus a few i love.......make that money bro stay strong we love you!
He is def underrated ppl comparing him to weak a** Trey Songz who is boring and typical,he will soon get all the recognition he deserves,I just pray he does not allow the industry and money to change him.
Lost my brother to gun violence in 22... Makes me sad ever time. Our birthdays was 17 days apart in the same month. We always asked each other what we going to do for our birthday. R.I.P BIG BRO
He is beautiful.our men and women in the struggle are so amazing and I see beauty in all of them and want good for all. Nobody's perfect and I think everyone has a heart and for those that don't, I love for them because everyone deserves someone to love them
I'm not huge on rap but I gotta admit, when I first heard this song I could really feel the music. He's telling a story and damn, this is some REAL shit. I have respect for him for that. It's good to see some rap that's actually about life rather than just sex & drugs.

Him and Kidd Kidd dropped a classic he's this generations R&B Pac #Salute King much respect #Fan4Life also can we just acknowledge the production on this track🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Chayna Hamilton I am sorry for your lost. If it makes you feel better that happened to me too. I couldn’t take it either. That’s what made me move away. This songs somewhat numbs my pain but still hurts to listen to it. The saying keep your friends close and enemies closer really relates to this situation. Once again I’m sorry for your lost. 😔❤️😭
I feel ya pain I’m from brick city Nj where death is always in the air I buried bixteen homies in a month this gang shit at no joke mfers wanna be quick to grab the hammer over some bs but don’t wanna shoot da fade the correct way
This song will always have a special place in my heart from the police shooting my dad 14 times and taking his life. Especially the part when he says "someone done killed my brother" I felt his pain.
March 2022, still letting ya'll know that this is and will forever be a classic song with so much meaning and emotion. Rest in peace to August's brother who was murdered back then.
I always listened to this song on repeat when I first hurd it.. On everything I love it was a msg a few yrs after I lost everything I worked for including my apartment I left the city for a new life in a month on father's day my brother got killed on the Eastside in front his g ma house and the police and city acting like nobody know nun but God will always bring light among darkness LL CJ

Crazy how no one gives credit to Kidd Kidd. His verse was pure 🔥🔥🔥
Kidd Kidd was actually signed to gunit and then went independent. 50 didn't promote him correctly and Kidd Kidd didn't push hard enough. But he was definitely recognized
Yeah I know that. What I said was in reference to his verse in the song.
He was under Wayne first before he went to G-Unit

This songs somewhat numbs my pain but still hurts to listen to it. The saying keep your friends close and enemies closer really relates to this situation. Once again I’m sorry for your lost. 😔❤️😭
No no doubt real Shit I'm from Boston song definitely has a sentimental verse or two
Chayna Hamilton soon true
I feel ya pain I’m from brick city Nj where death is always in the air I buried bixteen homies in a month this gang shit at no joke mfers wanna be quick to grab the hammer over some bs but don’t wanna shoot da fade the correct way
This song will always have a special place in my heart from the police shooting my dad 14 times and taking his life. Especially the part when he says "someone done killed my brother" I felt his pain.
Fuck the puercos they took away my homie too for not stopping his car
sorry about that my nigga!!

+K Geno He didn't know him because Aug is to underrated which pisses me off a lot. He should be getting a lot more attention for the music he makes.
