"And it's really astonishing how a country founded by immigrants, immigrant has somehow become a bad word." Damn that hit me hard..
EDIT: Please no arguments in the reply section. I respect and love all.
SSJ Golia all of us come from immigrants even the moron in the WH. Only ones here were Native Americans for over 10,000 years and we screwed them over
America was founded by settlers and conquerors not immigrants. There was no country before America to immigrate to. People conquered and settled the land, they didn't immigrate to it.
Nicholas Lee There was not a European recognized ‘country’, but land that had names and territories from the native people who were there first. Europeans immigrated to the land and colonized the people living there.
@@keroihmels6463 So the Europeans crossed defined borders into states with defined laws and institutions to accept immigrants with the purpose of living in said nations?
Nope. There were no defined borders, immigration laws, or modern institutions. Furthermore the Europeans didn't want to live under a native American nation.
They *conquered* and settled the land. The very first Americans were explorers, conquerers, and settlers. Not immigrants.
@@user-mx9ue9ly6c Wow... apparently history is your mind is so different... All these settlers you were talking about were immigrants who left Europe, later on slaves and then indentured servants and bonds men. Please do not change history to push your own agenda.... This is the sad state of affairs of the world today ... real history needs to be taught and recorded.
Did you know that when this famous line was said in Alexander Hamilton they had to extend the pause because of all the applauding the audience did?
@Vincent Drummond Okay?
@Vincent Drummond lolol... another word for a migrant is an immigrant. You're splitting hairs about the wrong thing.
@Vincent Drummond Okkkay Tim.
@Vincent Drummond Migration is leaving a country to pursue opportunities in a different such a work or school. Immigration is usually fleeing persecution and seeking a better life. That's how it was explained to me but I may be wrong
Night and Day what you just explained is a refugee not an immigrant. An immigrant is someone who comes to another country with intentions in living in that country permanently
I wonder if anyone caught the line “even if our bombs landed on them like the mayflower”… as a Native American, that hits hard. I’d also like to say the NO ONE is illegal on stolen land!
LOVED this line from Riz MC -- the parallel is *violently* appropriate.
By that definition all land was stolen, some land was just stolen thousands of years earlier than others were
Then get off my land and give me reparation you white guilt piece of shit
Mexicans took it from you as they should
Oh I caught it. He said something about the tombstones too.
The fact that lin Manuel maranda and residente are cousins amaze me. The talent that flows in the bloodline is insane.

Riz Ahmed drops a couple of Star Wars references, 'Nah we don't play British Empire Strikes Back' and 'Galaxy far from your ignorance'. He is in Star Wars: Rogue One. Just noticed and I've heard this a bunch of times.
2:00 I love the rapping half spanish half english. It’s so cool.
For the people who don’t know Spanish the guys who rapped in Spanish in one verse he said that half of America is Mexican territory. It’s true. Thank you for this.
Ojberretta Berretta how ignorant are you? Mexicans are a mix of Europeans and indigenous people ( most notably the Aztecs). I have no idea where you got that they stole their land??? And yes, the majority of Mexicans today speak spanish because Mexico was under the spanish empire’s rule for about three centuries. Some indigenous languages are still spoken in Mexico such as Nahuatl, Yucatec Maya, and Mixtec although then number of people who can and do speak any of those languages amount to nowhere near the amount of people who speak Spanish. I think you’re confusing Mexico and the United States. 🤔

"Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo" has to be one of the best lyrics I've heard in a long goddamn time.
I don't understand the reference though.
Nicole Song there's a tongue twister "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers" She's talking about how hard immigrants work. Basically, the owner of the pepper farm (Peter) claimed he picked the peppers but really he just underpaid an immigrant worker (Pablo) to pick them for him.
Snow tha product is beast at her lyrics! 😎
honkngoose It also refers to the Spanish tongue twister: “Pablito clavó un clavito, ¿qué clase de clavito clavó Pablito?”.
@Dave Ivancheck for someone who claims to know a lot about business, you're clearly very much not in the know of how much of what you consume is Mexican produce. LOL.
Sabía que había escuchado antes a Snow Tha Product, se me hacia conocida su voz y pues si, inclusive el flow que tiene es único !
Exacto!!
Sus líneas son poesía, y una mezcla hermosa de ingles y español, ella es una locura!!!

"Peter Piper claimed he picked them he just underpaid Pablo"
DAAAAAMN
it's wheat I don't get that wat it mean
That's right My type some white people usually hire immigrants to farm or clean and do their business and they claim they did the work and underpay immigrants
it's saying Peter claimed he picked the peppers but in reality he just underpaid an immigrant to pick them
it's wheat and adding to that, some immigrants can't really report being underpaid for fear of losing their job :(
it's wheat snow is a motherfucking beast
EXACTLY!!!
"America's ghost writers. The credit is only borrowed." So true, so often forgotten.

@David Gwin well everyone believes your a downwitted dimwit thats has a poor excuse for a sentence. Dont speak.at all.
@David Gwin you literally made no sense
This song hit different with everything going down in Florida rn
The fact that they called out Hillary Clinton in this vid shows that this is not a Left or Right issue; it's a HUMAN issue
Yesss
Yes! Just like recently there was a march on an ICE detention camp and everyone there had posters on anti trump and anti biden, seeing as they are both pro ICE. It's nice to see people fighting for human justice, and not just their side
FINALLY.
He said "Hillary Banks with a prenup," which is a reference to Will Smith's snobby cousin in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. It wasn't about Hillary Clinton. I agree with your sentiment though.
banks.... like Hillary (Banks) ? Youve never seen Fresh prince 🤣
"Sin pasaporte Americano porque la mitad de gringolandia es terreno mexicano"
Dude, that got me chills. So damn real. Mexico used to be bigger, just as they song says, half of the USA territory was Mexico's.
Soy mexicana y estoy orgullosa
@Geto Daco Yeah, that's not true. President Polk claimed that Mexico attacked U.S forces on U.S. territory without any proof. Abraham Lincoln was known at the time for insisting that the president say the exact spot where it happened. They never presented proof, and it turns out the scuffle actually happened on disputed territory. But James K. Polk was an avid believer in manifest destiny, as it was popular at the time. It's not out the question that he purposefully lied to justify war with Mexico in 1847. Don't spread lies, especially those born of nationalist rhetoric.
Yup
I found a translation of that last verse and it’s both beautiful and chilling
no porque mexico perdio la guerra sino los espanoles podran decir mexico es de espanca entonces ya que fueron ellos que ocuparon esa tierra y no los aztecas@Jan Reyes
“we packed our entire house in one suitcase”
god damn Residente se rayó con los lyrics
CampCas Ari como plantas que crecen sin agua. Se la trajo
Cuando el cabrón dijo: "Hay que ser bien hijueputa, nosotros sembramos el árbol y ellos se comen la fruta" I was like, yesssss Rene, call them shots on these bitches!
As a proud immigrant that line hits hard my family and I packed entire house and entire life in one suitcase
“Sin pasaporte estadounidense, porque la mitad del territorio es mexicano”. Auch.
Snow KILLED IT, i still cant get over her verse:
It's a hard line when you're an import
Baby boy, it's hard times
When you ain't sent for
Racists feed the belly of the beast
With they pitchforks, rich chores
Done by the people that get ignored
Ya se armó
Ya se despertaron
It's a whole awakening
La alarma ya sonó hace rato
Los que quieren buscan
Pero nos apodan como vagos
We are the same ones
Hustling on every level
Ten los datos
Walk a mile in our shoes
Abróchense los zapatos
I been scoping ya dudes, ya'll ain't been working like I do
I'll outwork you, it hurts you
You claim I'm stealing jobs though
Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo
But there ain't a paper trail when you living in the shadows
We're America's ghost writers, the credit's only borrowed
It's a matter of time before the checks all come
But
Listening to this again after many years and seeing the Florida boicot with the anti immigrant law gives me so much pleasure 😊 seeing how everyone is fleeing FL 🎉
I agree
Eyt y va encerio aqui en texas se mira policia x todos lados parando gente
I live In Florida myself, I'm not exaggerating when I say that almost all of my neighbors, classmates, teachers, etc are all Hispanic immigrants. I can't comprehend why they would put such law like this
same😄
Fleeing FL? Everybody is fleeing CA, NY, NJ who have alot of illegals to FL buddy
"Peter Piper claimed he picked 'em, he just underpaid Pablo."
That's a strong line there that not many people get it. It reference the tongue twister of "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers" and the spanish tongue twister "Pablo clavó un clavito". In thr english one, peter claims he picked the peppers. In the spanish one, Pablo is working driving nails. It's interesting how they linked Pablo working for someone and Peter underpaying him to work for him
@@eatmypanart Oh, so I got it right then? I thought that I might mishear the line. Well, now I know that it's really a reference to the tounge twister. Thanks for your comment
Snow is the queen of rap
Eatmypan Art and in English Pablo is Paul, which is a reference to “Robbing Peter to pay Paul. “ Snow is so underrated.
"...but the rain of papertowels, now you're living in the shadows."
This video goes out to all the rich people who had enough to get Hamilton tickets but still vote against immigrants on the ballot.
Why does everyone feel entitled to live in USA?
@@jdlc903 Some come to the USA to have a better job to support their families and some have other reasons, whether it be refuge, better education (though I doubt it is better), and etc.

Totalmente pero debo admitir que Snow la rompió, es muy difícil cambiar de estructura gramatical de inglés al español y viceversa, ni hablar de repear así, nací en Argentina, hablo con fluidez ambos idiomas y realmente no puedo hacer lo que hizo ella
PD: ni siquiera puedo rapear en un solo idioma lol
@@Rocio.Suarez aca en EU le dicen "spanglish" es muy comun k una persona use ingles n español en una oración..no digo k rapear es facil pero mixtiar los 2 idiomas es muy comun aca. No se si me explico bien..
@@OAKOD510 yo lo hago! Pero las reglas gramaticales del inglés u el español son re diferentes y rapear es muy difícil cuando juntas ambos idiomas

"Marquis de Lafayette came to America illegally, against the rules of the king, disguised as a pregnant woman." Ladies and Gentlemen, He too was an illegal immigrant.
That's true. But he technically wasn't an immigrant because he wasn't planning to, and didn't, stay in America permanently.
MarshmallowRockets Lillesøster-Sti where was that
True
True, didn't plan to reside in the U.S. permanently though.
MarshmallowRockets Lillesøster-Sti i am more interested in the "disguise as a prengant woman", why didn't that apeared an the musical?
Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo! - - - - DAMN SHE SAID THAT!
Scott Free LMAOOOOO they are known for being hardworking people
i've never heard that stereotype.. they've always been stereotyped as hardworking from what i know.
LMAO that might be the case today, but years ago they were not. wfae.org/post/what-makes-sleeping-mexican-so-divisive
Mexicans actually fought the stereotype and changed it over time but trust me back in the day they were thought of as lazy. But back then a lot of white still did manual labor...
Ok but just because that was the stereotype doesn't mean it was ever true. Its unclear if you are advocating for that view or if you're just pointing out that that used to be the stereotype (and that it was unfairly a stereotype). If the former, then you clearly missed the whole point of this song.. immigrants are pretty much always grinding. But yes, of course for much of american history we've demonized immigrants.
Im saying when the nursery rhyme was made Mexicans weren't doing shit.
We plant they seed while they eat the fruit.... 💯 💯 💯

This whole country is built on exploitation. Whether it be of workers, immigrants, developing nations, or even our own people.

@@gangrenousgandalf2102 wat
I guess i can see why I seem like an interesting person to ppl. Only, I guess This isn't really why. Not really sure. :/ obviously my perspectives are all over the place. I just simply exist is all.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is exactly why I’m studying immigration law. Thank you Lin Manuel Miranda for inspiring me to fight for my people in this country. You sir have impacted the lives of so many of us and I, like Hamilton himself, will write not only my way out of the shadows but I will wright OUR way out... From a first generation college student, daughter of both Mexican and Salvadorian immigrant parents, I say that it’s now my turn to give a voice to not only my people, but to all those who go unheard...
You do God's work, friend.
"Daughter of immigrant parents" means you're a citizen of this country and it's countrymen are your people. Not immigrants. Your statement is all reversed. Like your brain.
Just try to do a better job then Hamilton did when he said that.
Why do you hate locals? Do you think your parents country's shoukd have open borders or just USA?
@Cynthia Garcia puello border control help protect jobs and wages for locals
I love this whole song, but Snow Tha Product's verse gives me chills every single time.
TRUE
Every now and then I come back to watch this video just to remember to never kneel in front of the oppressor. We, immigrants and sons and daughters of immigrants, have resistance in our blood. Keep fighting.
Opressors lol you can back to mexico but you wont lolz

So what happens if they win will they go to france will they bring freedom to their people is they are given the chance?
That guy from Calle 13, OMG, he abused the shit out of that verse! He said the realest shit I've ever heard.
Elissa S yeah he's one of the best when it comes to cleverness in verses and truth behind them, that's why I like him. :)
IamWAR YESSS I KNEW IT WAS HIM
IamWAR He is now 'Residente' Calle 13 does not exist anymore :(
I THOUGHT I RECOGINIZED HIM! Calle 13 keeping it real
His name is René Perez known as Residente, Calle 13 doesn't exist more :(
"Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo" that line right there got me
Yo, shout out to that clock... in the beginning... that's the exact same clock my dad has, he's had it since I can remember (I'm 37). It's the clock I've heard day after day go off at 3am... he'll get up, get ready, and head to work... just so my sisters and I could enjoy the fruits of his and my mom's labor. Both came here illegally... one, now a US citizen, the other, is a US resident. Been in the US longer than Mexico... time, money, sweat, and sleep... that's what they have given to this country... they've definitely gone far.
"Don't think I didn't see those tombstones."
I started crying, because every time my family and I travel to Mexico to visit, we see countless tombstones on the side of the road.
then that's an admission their native homes are shitholes
It is sad to see something like that. People just will never understand the struggle of others and they close their hearts and borders and continue to call themselves “The land of the free” people need to look in the eyes of their ancestors and tell them “go back” they would have never existed if it wasn’t for them. Tan triste
Jody Lynna I understand you're sad. I'm just saying that the blood of our ancestors has already dried on their hands. Me? I don't have a trace of DNA of the murdered innocent on my hands.
Listen, I'm tired of people kicking and screaming about me being a wolf because of my ancestors. It's just as racist. If you mean to judge me for something my ancestors supposedly done then you're absolutely horrid. No one should ever even be compensated either for slavery, because in the U.S it's illegal, and everyone who went through it has died. So no one felt that pain.
*However.*
Though I said that, I am avidly against Trump. Though I hate those who kick and scream over trivial things, this doesn't dispel the constant pain and suffering that immigrants often go through. Even so much as risking their lives to get to the other side.
I was rooting for them this whole video, and I realized we're finally taking a stand against it. Though the pain is still prevalent, people are finally talking.
Estoy muy contenta.
No you didn't
I didn't really understand that line, could you explain it please?
*Peter piper claimed he picked them he just underpaid Pablo*
What does that mean?
@@Chris_Chansen a white man (peter piper) said he picked the pepers like in the kids rhyme but the truth is that he underpaid pablo in other words he takes the credit when it was pablos the one that picked the pepers
@@Bel-bx9zt ok thank u

I was dreading watching this for an assignment til Snowdaproduct starting eating it upp 😭
As a white person-
Y'all helped build this country and brought actual culture here.
Deportation is fucking horrible
It should be noted that the train tracks were originally laid by Chinese immigrants.
Tina Dancer and most of my ancestors got blown up in the process.
Only on the Central Pacific. The Union Pacific tracks were laid by Irish. And both groups wouldn't have a prosperous country to come to if the White Anglo Saxon Protestants hadn't founded this great nation.
And the Irish were brought to pick tobacco in the Caribbean
Monsieur Bleu Pen it was hardly prosperous for immigrants, and still isn’t. Don’t claim this country to be great when it’s very clearly a third world country with a lot of money.
Remember Hamilton is focused on an immigrant
I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory,
this is where it gets me: scrolling down, haters swarming like killer bees.
If I speak, do I stand by my word or just delete.
Can't we just enjoy the melody?
You know, I never thought I'd live to see
The nation crumble around this presidency
In which every person is cursing
for the sake of being heard
And now we forget
the power of meaningful words.
You deserve a Tony.
this should be the top comment my dude
You know what? Screw that.
Life is never gonna be nice to me.
Nothing will ever be perfect for the pitied.
I've been putting way too much thought
into these words on the off
chance people like y'all
are gonna notice me.
And if video gets more views,
may others notice that I got nothing to lose,
that I can announce and value my opinion
without needing permission to enter this dominion.
I love this. For your ancestors and mine.
For every last stitch of sewing stitched in a badly lit factory, or a tiny apartment. For every swing of a hammer pounding in the rail lines from sea to sea. For every crop coaxed out of the soil and for every hand that picked it, cooked it and served the meals. For the strong hands that build the houses and the kind hands that soothe the sick.
*For all the singers and teachers in every age.*
For me. For you.
Look how far we've come.
Man I love me some Puerto Ricans 🇵🇷 Cannot get enough of that smooth talk from Residente!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
I love how this is a throwback to the beginning of hip hop as a social commentary on political injustice. This is true Hip Hop, it has a message, it's cadence and rhythm is impeccable and, not to mention, it's a great song.
Question EVERYTHING and its got some Hamilton sprinkled in there ;)
Question EVERYTHING Said like a true king
Listen to because the internet
sin mencionar a: CALLE 13 mi chico!
Question EVERYTHING Meh. The woman's flow was meh at best, chorus is kinda annoying.
I can't believe I forgot how incredible Snow Tha Product's verse is

If you understood Spanish you'd know that Residente killed it
@@kevinss1969 I speak spanish and yeah Residente's part was awesome, but I prefer Snow's.
I think snow and Riz were the best parts of the song
This is always so relavant. Most people I know, including myself are second or third generation immigrants, and its so crazy how so called "natural born" (racist white people) americans, who discrimate people. Like, these are the people who build everything up for you. They're the people who built the streets you walk on. The home you live in. The clothes you wear. And yet you feel the need to discrimate? Get yourself grounded and awake, and wake up and listen to this song. Immigrants? They got the jobs done. We stan this video.
LEGALLY YES! Which is WAY less than 100,000 per year!
Not per WEEK ILLEGALLY!
DEPORT 100 MILLION ILLEGAL INVADERS NOW!
SEAL THE BORDER FOR 60 YEARS!
OR SOON WE WILL DEPORT THIS ENTIRE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AS IS OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT!
WE THE PEOPLE have had ENOUGH!
If we have to DEPORT YOU ALL OURSELVES, its going to be BAD, for YOU CRIMINALS!
I was in shook when i found this extended version of that line. Made my whole week.
If u mean at the end during the credits it’s part of the song otherwise idk wat ur talking about
@@MrStonks31 i meant the line from the battle of Yorktown in Hamilton. "Immigrants, we get the job done" to be more specific.
Music is the universal language for our species. I may not have understood every word, but I felt all of it's pain, intensity, and struggle.
Nightmonkey13 hello, just wanted to point out in case you didn't see- the translated lyrics are subtitled in the vid :)
Nightmonkey13 that's what you saw
amen
Perdón, Why bash someone for being fluent in music? Apparently you dont understand what he's saying,its ok you dont really have to..unless your gonna comment. Theres No need to understand the words to understand the feelings....there is lots of struggle, pain and intensity in this song coming From all walks of immigration. Its not just hispanics that immigrate to the states. Russians, Ethiopians,Iranians,Bharatiya (indians), Palestinians, Israeli, Jamaicas, Chinese, Japanese , african, Filipino or even Canadian. Yes thats right canadian....so... dont go showing your ass because an outside FINALLY gets the struggle. AFTER YEARS, one person who isn't spanish speaking understood the message.......but tal vez no se.....😐😑😐
Born in México, to Mexican parents. I came to Canadá when I was nine years old. When I was eighteen, I had the possibility of renouncing my Mexican citizenship to become Canadian. My friends wanted me to renounce it. My parents told me it was up to me.
I’m Mexican-Canadian.
I have two passports.
I was born in México, I am an immigrant and I come from parents who are immigrants. I ain’t gonna forget that.
Dave Ivancheck what he is trying to say is that you don’t forget your roots. Where you were born and your parents were is something you must be proud.
That makes my dad and my sister immigrants
Dave Ivancheck you know the original Americans were immigrants right? You seem very patriotic about your country, why can’t other people that came from different countries. Americans get a lot of benefits from immigrants, because they use them. Immigrants have to work harder than Americans and usually paid less. That’s why Americans should appreciate immigrants and letting them express themselves. This is from an American
True Israel are you talking to me?
Dave Ivancheck - I’m literally facing palming at your stupidness and ignorance.
Sitting in my office of the warehouse I manage and seeing the part of the video where immigrants are sewing the American flags gave me flash backs of my mom when she used to work sewing clothes, whoever came up with that concept for this video is a genius. came here when I was 11, worked at carwashes, McDonalds and for the last 15 years moving up the ladder on the trucking and warehousing industry, my own side printing business where I work at home most of the afternoons and weekends and doing everything I can to give my kids a better head start... as the song says LOOK HOW FAR I HAVE COME!!!

Here are the lyrics:
{Intro: J. Period}
You know, and it gets into this whole issue of border security, you know, who's gonna say that the borders are secure? We've got the House and the Senate debating this issue, and it's... it's really astonishing that in a country founded by Immigrants, "immigrant" has somehow become a bad word. So the debate rages on and we continue....
[Intro: "Yorktown" sample]
[Hercules Mulligan]
And just like that it’s over, we tend to our wounded, we count our dead
[John Laurens]
Black and white soldiers alike wonder if this really means freedom…
[George Washington]
Not yet
[Verse 1: K’Naan]
I got 1 job, 2 job, 3 when I need them
I got 5 roommates in this one studio, but I never really see them
And we all come to America trying to get a lap dance from Lady Freedom
But now Lady Liberty is acting like Hillary Banks with a pre-nup
Man I was brave, sailing on graves
Don’t think I didn’t notice those tombstones disguised as waves
I’m no dummy, here is something funny, you can be an immigrant
without risking your lives
Or crossing these borders with thrifty supplies
All you got to do is see the world with new eyes
[Chorus]
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
We get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job done
[Verse 2: Snow Tha Product]
It’s a hard line when you’re an import
Baby boy, it’s hard times
When you aint send for
Racists feed the belly of the beasts
With they pitchforks, rich chores
Done by the people that get ignored
Ya se armó
Ya se despertaron
It’s a whole awakening
La alarma ya sonó hace rato
Los que quieren buscan
Pero nos apodan como vagos
We are the same ones
Hustling on every level
Ten los datos
Walk a mile in our shoes
Abróchense los zapatos
I been scoping ya dudes, y’all ain’t working been working like I do
I’ll outwork you, it hurts you
You claim I’m stealing jobs though
Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo
But there ain’t a paper trail when you living in the shadows
We’re America’s ghost writers, the credit’s only borrowed
It’s a matter of time before the checks all come
But…
[Chorus]
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
We get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job-

[Bridge: Snow Tha Product]
The credit is only borrowed
It’s America's ghost writers, the credit's only borrow-borrowed
It’s America's ghost writers
America's ghost writers
America's ghost writers, the credit's only borrow-borrowed
It’s America’s ghost writers, a credit is only borrowed
It’s America’s ghost writers, a credit is only borrowed

[Hook]
Immigrants, we get the job done
[Verse 3: Riz MC]
Ay yo aye, immigrants we don’t like that
Na they don’t play British empire strikes back
They beating us like 808’s and high hats
At our own game of invasion, but this ain’t Iraq
Who these fugees what did they do for me
But contribute new dreams
Taxes and tools, swagger and food to eat
Cool they flee war zones, but the problem ain’t ours
Even if our bombs landed on them like the Mayflower
Buckingham Palace and Capitol Hill
Blood of my ancestors had that all built
It’s the ink you print on your dollar bill, oil you spill
Red line on the flag you hoist when you kill
But still we say “look how far I come”
Hindustan, Pakistan, to London
To a galaxy far from their ignorance
Cos-
[Hook]
Immigrants, we get the job done
[Verse 4: Residente]
Por tierra o por agua
Identidad falsa
Brincamos muros o flotamos en balsas
La peleamos como Sandino en Nicaragua
Somos como las plantas que crecen sin agua
Sin pasaporte americano
Porque La mitad de Gringolandia Es terreno Mexicano
Hay que ser bien hijo e puta
Nosotros Les Sembramos el árbol y ellos se comen la fruta
Somos los que cruzaron
Aquí vinimos a buscar el oro que nos robaron
Tenemos mas trucos que la policía secreta
Metimos la casa completa en una maleta
Con un pico, una pala
Y un rastrillo
Te construimos un castillo
Como es que dice el coro cabrón?
[Chorus]
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
We get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job done

There is probably more diversity in this video than in 90% of Hollywood.
How many Asian of white people did you see? Looked pretty much like just black and Latino people. I’m Indian so don’t play the white supremacist card.
Clorox Bleach I saw a lot of asains just not many whites
You realize what "diversity" means? It means a variety of difference. Just being black and latino isn't diverse, it's pretty homogeneous.
And diversity is more than just race, you know.
+Mohamed Ali
Wow, he's 400+ years old? I didn't know that's possible
buchner funnel the difference, you idiot, is that America has a looot of different races residing in it. There are more POC than whites in DC and also in NYC and many other cities. But POC get so little representation and everything is whitewashed there, giving a misguided view. In India, it is usually like 95% Indians in every state and city so white people don't need to be included in our shows to correctly represent our country. Same for most Asian countries. To correctly represent America, whites, blacks, latinos and all the other races have to be included. Also, I'm Indian so I know what I'm talking about when it concerns my country.
Snow tha product es una genio!
As a daughter from Mexican immigrants, the line "Immigrants, we get the job done" is one of my favorite lines from the show.
I wish people realize how cruel they are when they say "BUILD THAT WALL!"
Rose's are red
Tacos are enjoyable
Don't blame an immigrant
because you're unemployable
Holly Huffstutler ha that's funny
I snorted this is genius

As the daughter of an immigrant this really touches my heart. Immigrants, we get the job done.

Snow the product👌
Dear people who hate immigrants,
Take out a 10 dollar bill. Look at it. There is the picture of an immigrant who saved the nation he escaped to. So sit down and let them get the job done or give them a helping hand.
Sincerely,
A Turkish 14 year old girl.

Thanks!
That's snow, best Fermale in the game check out all her stuff.

That Spanish rap hit hard, man
Ese rap español pegó fuerte, hombre

i'm so glad they didn't just add mexicans in the video because there are so many other groups of people from around the world, i just feel like they deserve recognition as well, and i'm mexican and proud!! EDIT: woaahhhh 450 likes? unexpected!!!!
Y que decir de Maluma :I.
•Wawashing Machine• I lové Maluma (even though I don't know Spanish my mom helps translate it for me though 😂)

truth
Riz MC, that middle eastern guy is actually Asian (British Pakistani). Also you forget K'naan, the black guy at the beginning who is not hispanic either but Somali Canadian.
I’m not an immigrant, but I believe that they need to stop getting this unneeded hatred and fear. Unless they are wielding a weapon and threatening it at you, you shouldn’t be scared.
Hey, immigrants, they get the job done!
I think you should just generally be scared of people pointing weapons at you, regardless of immigration status.
@@theviewer6889 yea.
Now Legal Immigrants aren't the problem, the problem is the ILLEGAL immigrants that are crossing the boarder.
Jallie Boii tell that to the american indians
@@theviewer6889 jajaja, good point 👍
How about that one line I’m going to paraphrase “ nosotros sembramos las semillas y ustedes se comen la fruta”. That shit hit home ….
the beginning, saying that the word "immigrant" scares us is so incredibly true. when I was in the 6th grade, we had a family of Mexican immigrants move into our small town. one of their kids were in my grade and they were also related to one of my friends and someone who was in my church. everyone was scared of them because there were rumors that they had came over illegally. (found out later once the kid learned english that it wasn't true) but my teachers made sure to welcome the kid by teaching us some spanish. fast forward a few months, the kid already speaks basic english and can hold a conversation with us. she's hilarious and fun to be around. I wasn't buddy buddy with her, but I would talk to her if I could. When we got into the 8th grade, we were paired together for an assignment. it was about trying to solve a problem. we tackled immigration in America and how it needs to have less regulation. she moved away the next year. so we really don't have anything to be scared of. it's all of those drug and gun smuggling stories that scares us from seeing that they're people just like us.
Nice bro
DEPORT 100 MILLION ILLEGAL INVADERS NOW!
SEAL THE BORDER FOR 60 YEARS!
OR SOON WE WILL DEPORT THIS ENTIRE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AS IS OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT!
WE THE PEOPLE have had ENOUGH!
If we have to DEPORT YOU ALL OURSELVES, its going to be BAD, for YOU CRIMINALS!
"La mitad de Gringolandia es terreno Mexicano" Man I LOVE the spanish rap!
Chech out Violadores del Verso. They are really good
Its USA
@Gonzalo Araujo I think that he/she meant the language, not the nationality but ok
Martinusca Latin American isn’t a nationality, it’s a geographical location in Northa and South America
@@LM-ix7pk Ik but Spain is. The comment I'm replying to is the one correcting the fact the he said "Spanish" and saying it is Latin American, so by that he is implying he thought that by "Spanish" the person meant "from Spain", when I think he/she meant just the language. So yes, nationality.
That last guy straight up just spilled truth
Residente is an activist and artist from Puerto Rico. Search his new track "Guerra" (War) and you will thank me later...
Krystel Salguero right
I come back to this song every once in a while - and then i play the shit out of it
People really act like every immigrant comes here just to sit on their ass and be on government aid. Every and thats not an exaggeration EVERY immigrant I know came here to escape bullshit or have a better life and work their ass off to do it. Immigrants YOU get the job done 💙
"Aqui vinimos a buscar el oro que nos robaron" fuck I love Residente, he's naaaaasty as hell
He always says what the rest is too afraid to speak out of their minds...
He is so fucking good!
wow, I never noticed that singing rap in spanish make the music 10x cooler. Every word sounds sharp and passionate. ❤
Denvy Zhang its easy to rhyme
It's actually much easier to rhyme in english
ChocoTendzz Yeah, with some words being changed easier (and still not sounding all that much different) its much easier, I am trilingual and English is definitely the easiest language to rhyme with (I speak native Spanish, English and French)
How I din not know about this song Resident and Snow 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Residente doesn't have 4 Grammys and 27 Latin Grammys for nothing. Periodt! "La mitad de Gringolandia es terreno Mexicano"
"Peter Piper Claimed He Picked Them, He Just Underpayed Pablo" Holy Shiiit, Snow That Product everyone!🔥
She a savage
Lin must be so proud...
Caroline McGuire who isn’t
He should be! I don't see why anyone wouldn't be proud
Had to share this....just as applicable today as it was when it came out 4 yrs ago.
Song is old still can’t believe they had the god of ending peoples careers the king Calle 13 aka residente giving me goosebumps on his verse
The Spanish Rapper is RESIDENTE LIN Manuel Miranda's cousin

Qué? X2
@@krisstinesquivelquiros7822 Rene es el primo tercero de Lin, el abuelo de lin y la abuela de Rene son primos
He's Puerto Rican and they are third cousins.
Calle 13 wow
Such a powerful message!
I hope people see this and realize how hard immigrants work and how refugees suffer. Everybody deserves a chance! "America's ghost writers, the credits only borrowed"
Liz Ramirez finally! A positive message
Liz Ramirez I really liked the shades of Snowpiercer in this.
Lets not forget Sweden was named the rape capital of the world after they let these so called refugees.
VOAR1776 If only it were that easy
VOAR1776 If it were easy, there wouldn't be anyone coming here illegally
It’s 2021 and I’m so glad this still comes up in my feed. It’s nice to see it again every few months or so. 💕
DAMN WHO IS THE LAST DUDE!? WOW HE WAS NOT HOLDING BACK!
NOMINATED FOR A VMA THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!
AND WIN!
as a child of immigrants ,and getting to see the shit my parents went through to provide me with what they thought was the best,this song speaks to me deep.
Jilly Bean it speaks to your parents not you
so I cannot empathize seeing them go through it? don't be a dolt.
Jilly Bean you right
unless you are from europe (and even there, you could be) we all are childs from immigrants, maybe some thousand year old tribe in africa isnt.
Jilly Bean same
Snow The Product y Residentes bars are on point
Snow got flow 🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a daughter of immigrants this....
This is my past, my life, my heritage.
People don't give a thought about us
We work so hard for this, to get here
To get a better life for our family, friends
And now it feels like it was all for nothing
Our hard work was for nothing.
But now this show our side of the story.
And I hate when people assume things and just think it's true.
We are good people, trying to do good for our family and our life.
And no one sees that, they just people "stealing jobs" or "bad people"
But this song...
I appreciate this, thank you💖
"Immigrants, we get the job done"
OMG people actually liked my comment💖 Thank you🖤

GO GIRL SLAY
Literally everyone cares because these day your most likely to bet hired if you're bilingual which most immigrants are
Don't worry I got all the immigrants' back because I love immigrants as a daughter of a immigrant myself 😁
Trouble Maker most of my mother's roots immigrated from Scotland and Italy to America via ellis island, I feel your pain.
A rude reply want make u rich either
I'm Native American (cherokee) I feel bad for all these people & families that just want a better life, Lady Liberty
Is supposed to welcome immigrants, but look where this country is now.
Vincent Drummond then how does the immigration process work? Because last time I checked, we practically don’t have one anymore
Cheezy Ensaymada _You’re acting like it’s an easy process. It’s not, but don’t get me wrong! I’m glad your family came in legally, but unfortunately not everyone has that kind of luck. It irritates me to my soul when people believe it’s just a "easy and fast” process for any immigrant. It’s not._
It took one of my Tia's 10 years.
Update she only got 7 years of residency because now she is dead.
Evelyn I agree. Some people don’t have that kind of time to wait while they’re in dangerous conditions.
@Vincent Drummond 'teach them how to pass' also known as be put on a several year waiting list to become a citizen, in a country where you're unsafe and your family could die
"Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo". WHAT A LINE.
8 years later I come here because I was watching an Spanish video that explains how Rene (Residente) became to be the best monster Spanish rapper that he is right now. In the video they mentioned this song and let me tell you that this song is a jewel 💎!! Residente is out of this world with the lyrics that he used for this song.
