    Wow. This is possibly one of the greatest songs I've ever heard in the protest genre. This one and "Strange Fruit" are two of my favorite protest songs. They really set aside all fear of repercussions and just simply give a message that needs to be heard, without polluting the message with hate. Just amazing.

      We are not the only race that kill each other. Bonnie and Clyde was not black. And, neither were they killing blacks. There are many more white people in prison for killing there own race. Check it out. However, I do not know a race that have not killed there own. If anyone knows, let me know.

    I'm very confused seeing this song was released 5 years ago, when it just summarised what happened in Nigeria last year😳. I honestly thought this song was released in 2020 becuz it is one of the most relatable songs I've ever heard, and apparently, TH-cam recommended it at the right time

    • @silvermann6515
      @silvermann6515 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      It's called conviction... Kevon is going to a place musically and LYRICALLY where others fear or don't want to tread. He's getting past the cliches of church and other genres of music. In the 70's R&B artists had a balance to their lyrical content. Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, James Brown etc... Kevon is in keeping with that same spiritual, lyrical and musical responsibility... But it's for the Kingdom of Heaven now.. Big ups Kev.. Keep moving in the direction that GOD has given you to go. Don't let those who don't understand your assignment to deter you or frustrate you. Shalom brother.

    This isn't a song that appeals to "opinion" but more to the heart and mind; thereby only a fool would listen to words, no the realities of our communities, and say derogatory things about this message. That the desensitizing he's referring to. Oh yes, there are many within our world, even our own race, that are by definition "less likely to feel shock or distress at scenes of cruelty, violence, or suffering by overexposure to such images." I more people stop taking one sentence out of the song and negatively focusing on that...

    Ok. So for the butt hurt community, please stop. Just stop and listen. The only part you seem to hear is the word "only" but the message is clear: We Got To Do Better. Stop killing each other. Stop drive bys, stop aborting, stop demeaning and tearing each other down. Stop hating on each other. Lift each other up. Don't ask for hand outs and stop wanting the government to feed us. We can do it on our own. We can be entrepreneurs. We can have our own businesses. We don't have to continue senseless violence. No one is a victim of anything. This song is not bashing us; it's a warning. It's supposed to open our eyes and ears but we are so blind and deaf that we can even hear what the message is. WAKE UP, MELANINATED ONES!!! WAKE UP, PLEASE!!!!!

      So Eric Garner said he couldn't breathe in 2014, I think, when a cop put him in a chokehold. I wrote "I think" because during that time (2014), my Granny passed away at the end of that year and I ignorantly went to a protest and was saying "I can't breathe" during it as a chant. I think that movie came out the same year or shortly after. That was a blurry time for me because I was grieving so badly for my Granny that I did something I thought she would approve of it. Smh. I'm a totally different person now. Sorry about the long comment.
