My father that adopted me, coming close to 70yrs old now, whitest male ever… fkn LOVES this song. I can’t express the feeling of joy I felt when he told me he likes this song. We united and bonded through your music. Amazing! Thank you. 🦌
thunderboltll you know they let you be the creative mind for your 1st or 2nd album then they change you...look what happened to the Weeknd...he's a star boy now
Richard Amanatey the hihat and snare rolls snare patterns the production is very trap banger esque. I'm not saying he's rapping on the topics of general trap music
TheElizabeth125 but based on the lyrics i feel like he was the better choice, that he's not a lion or cheetah. ( comment above broke it down pretty nicely )
I named my newly born son Jidenna because of this song(May 13th 2024). Im addicted to it,and all of Jidenna's songs. One of my dreams in life is meeting this my Igbo brother one day. Amazing singer,God bless u richly.
congratulations! mine turned 21, the days are long, but the years go fast. I wish i couldve been a more patient and understanding father, such is life.
Jordan Strong I'm sure that was the reaction of half the people who viewed this. In life you don't always know what you need, until you come across it. Jidenna just proved that.
I love him yo. I don't care. I love him. Touch of Harry Belefonte wit his smooth ass voice. Remaining true to his African heritage with the lyrics. Got a fire snare drum making it more Hip Hop with some bars for flavor! Man is made of Melanin, Magic, and Music!
darksidehavok excatly i said that 6x ago lol will be singing this shit at work in 7 hours ...but i must say why the hell she send the damn invitation though lmao just messy
I dnt think that's finger wave tho his mom is white I'm pretty sure his hair just waves on its own when combed he got good hair that cornrow is fucking dope
Hemerson Guerrero it was a joke...lol but that was a very ignorant comment, "He has good hair because his mom is white" hmm good hair is healthy hair, has nothing to do with your ethnicity.
Everything about this song is beautiful Jidenna, the way he dresses, his authenticity, the creativity and originality. I haven't heard anything like this in my 21 yrs of living 😊
Wow, this music video really took me on a trip down memory lane-so many good vibes and old memories flooding back! It’s crazy how certain songs can make you feel so alive, right? Anyone else get those feels when listening to this?
Lyrics.....Jidenna-Bambi Bambi, Bambi My dear, my dear, my dear My dear I want you here Don't get too near for there's lions beware Oh Bambi I won't lie If I weren't in this spider web of mine If grandfather never had seven wives Then darling you would be love of my life Oh Bambi it's my design To run the jungle I must be a lion Or be a cheetah but neither is fine Don't wanna hurt my dear love of my life Bambi, Bambi My dear, my dear, my dear My dear I want you here Don't get too near for there's lions beware Sometimes I hide When you FaceTime I text you back a lie Cause I'm afraid to look back in your eyes I'm terrified you were love of my life The woman among the tribe They will be jealous of this lullaby I'll drink alone in my hotel and cry Cause now they know you are love of my life Bambi, Bambi My dear, my dear, my dear My dear I want you here Don't get too near for there's lions beware I wish that we were forever young I always knew that this day would come The fork in the road where I cannot run Between love and many I'm loving one I got the wedding invitation Bambi I'm happy that he wants to make a family But I cannot promise I won't run up in the church There screaming your name Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi Bambi, Bambi My dear I want you here Oh baby don't get too near No there are lions beware awesome music............................................................................................................
The only thing that heals this is time. And even then, there's a part of you that isn't the same. You just learn to adjust with a piece of you that's gone.
Taiwo Orogbangba right! This has real meaning to it and as an African (Togolese/Ghanaian) 🇹🇬🇬🇭who's obsessed with African music, this is a really good mix of hip hop and African music!!!
I love how Jidenna be like" I'm gone have a cornrow right here, a fade on the left side and a finger wave in the front!" 0:48 That's black independence and style for you! #LongliveJidenna
It's like reggae without being reggae, it's like jazz without being jazz, it's like big band without being big band, it's like calypso without being calypso and when that trap beat drops it just the most unique sound I've heard in a long time. I have listened to this song so many times I should be sick of it but how can I be it's too fire.
My very Good friend Kwame Asante from Ghana passed away today 26 February 2024 before a kidney surgery this was his all time favorite song and ringtone I'm here to reminisce on memories😖💔 #S.O💥
I cannot tell you how nice it is to see a classy black artist that's not all about boobs & butts jiggling on the screen. black folks have beautiful voices & it's nice to hear those voices again free from autotune.
Chris & Wanda boobs and butts aren't the problem. shitty "artists" like 21 savage, Kodak black, lil yachty and Lil Uzi getting fame is the problem. all pull more views than jidenna and I saw yachty on TV during the grammys.
They've always been there. Just look into a different genre if trap music isn't your thing. It's not a "black folks" issue. Let people like what they like without being beneath you.
whoa, this sound like an adult lullaby. i didnt even watch the video except a snippet. the sound did something to me like when motown singers use to serenade women into lusting for them. Amazing
A rapper with style and class, intelligent with an amazing family background, he worked from little to everything, did what others said he couldn't, has amazing vocals and looks and isn't afraid to show his weakness/breakdown over the love of his life... All round amazing man. Amazing chief should I say
The man I trusted the most 😢😢left me for no reason 😭😭I thought the world was over for me But here I am❤ happy again in a new marriage,, God's time is always the best when you find the right person 😊
He so good that it's almost certainly intentional the Lion and Cheetah are almost homophones of lying and cheater. Took me half a dozen listens to click on to that one :O
Thank me later.. Oh Mmm Mmm Mmm Bambi, Bambi My dear, my dear, my dear My dear I want you here Don't get too near for there's lions beware Oh Bambi I won't lie If I weren't in this spider web of mine If grandfather never had seven wives Then darling you would be love of my life Oh Bambi it's my design To run the jungle I must be a lion Or be a cheetah but neither is fine Don't wanna hurt my dear love of my life Bambi, Bambi My dear, my dear, my dear My dear I want you here Don't get too near for there's lions beware Sometimes I hide When you FaceTime I text you back a lie Cause I'm afraid to look back in your eyes I'm terrified you were love of my life The woman among the tribe They will be jealous of this lullaby I'll drink alone in my hotel and cry Cause now they know you are love of my life Bambi, Bambi My dear, my dear, my dear My dear I want you here Don't get too near for there's lions beware I wish that we were forever young I always knew that this day would come The fork in the road where I cannot run Between love and many I'm loving one I got the wedding invitation Bambi I'm happy that he wants to make a family But I cannot promise I won't run up in the church There screaming your name Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi Bambi, Bambi My dear I want you here Oh baby don't get too near No there are lions beware
I ran into a Family Dollar to get wrapping paper yesterday and heard this playing over the speaker. I stopped and listen and because I only listen to gospel I thought ' nice song for my first and only time to hear it'. However the beat stayed in my head and Bambi on my mjnd, that I had to come looking for it. Good job to this young man
2023 and I’m here smiling at every single lyric in this song, cuz we made lots of memories with this song, he even called me Bambi. But it’s all good, we smile, we heal, we pray and move on. This song never gets old❤️❤️🔥❤️🔥Always Gold. Thank u Jide💞
Why isn't this guy given the credit he deserves right now. He should be spoken of in the same breath as Drake, Weeknd, Kanye, Breezy and all those guys. The Chief album is dope.
Kevin nooooo dont put him in with them...he has created his own lane...they could never match his artistry...this song sounds like Nat King Cole poured slowly over a hip hop beat...stirred not shaken💜
@@msontopoftheworld I think he's fallen in love with his sister. One of his grandfather's wives' daughter and it's impossible to marry her since they're family. Reason why he's in the spider web. He can do nothing about it.
"Bambi" Oh Mmm Mmm Mmm Bambi Bambi (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear, my dear, my dear (Ahh Bam Bambi) My dear I want you here (Ahh Bam-Bambi) But don't get too near for there's lions beware (Ahh Bam-Bambi) Oh Bambi I won't lie If I weren't in this spider web of mine If grandfather never had seven wives Then darling you would be love of my life Oh Bambi it's my design To run the jungle I must be a lion Or be a cheetah but neither is fine Don't wanna hurt my dear love of my life Bambi Bambi (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear, my dear, my dear (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear I want you here (Ahh Bam-Bambi) But don't get too near for there's lions beware (Ahh Bam-Bambi) Sometimes I hide When you FaceTime I text you back a lie 'Cause I'm afraid to look back in your eyes I'm terrified you were love of my life The women among the tribe They will be jealous of this lullaby I'll drink alone in my hotel and cry 'Cause now they know you are love of my life Bambi Bambi (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear, my dear, my dear (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear I want you here (Ahh Bam-Bambi) But don't get too near for there's lions beware (Ahh Bam-Bambi) I wish that we were forever young I always knew that this day would come The fork in the road where I cannot run Between loving many and loving one I got the wedding invitation Bambi I'm happy that he wants to make a family But I cannot promise I won't run up in the church there screamin' your name Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi No one can take you from me Bambi Bambi Bambi (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear, my dear, my dear (Ahh Bam-Bambi) My dear I want you here (Ahh Bam-Bambi) But don't get too near for there's lions beware (Ahh Bam-Bambi) I just wanna see my baby, that's my Bambi, that's my dear I just wanna see my baby, that's my Bambi, that's my dear I just wanna see my baby, that's my Bambi, that's my dear I just wanna see my baby, that's my Bambi, that's my dear
How does this song sound like it came out in the 60s AND still sound new and fresh AF?! This dude is so versatile
Cin3mattic that’s exactly the same thing I said. And yesterday is the first I’ve heard this masterpiece.
That moment you realize that Highlife is in your blood....
🤣🤣😉⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️
Richie valen you're mine vibes
*50's
why is no once else commenting about this man's running form. impeccable.
Ikr
not only is it impeccable, it's elegant...this dude even runs elegantly :))
With a pocket watch still intact and all....
So so
Bruh got no kind of athleticism. LMBO!! Good song though.
This is like 1950s-60s soul mixed with Nigerian High life mixed with trap beat, Im not a trap fan but this mix is so dope!
Afric Network it's like hints of Sam Cooke David Ruffin and Bob Marley in one. Awesome
Afric Network perfect description, plus I love trap music
808s

My father that adopted me, coming close to 70yrs old now, whitest male ever… fkn LOVES this song. I can’t express the feeling of joy I felt when he told me he likes this song. We united and bonded through your music. Amazing! Thank you. 🦌
This nigga is a musical genius who is criminally underrated.
Island Gaming FOR REAL THO
Thats true... This guy is awesome 😍😍
Island Gaming oh bambi I am alive
Island Gaming true fact
lol this video has millions of views. there are so many people who fit into the category of "criminally underrated" better than him but YA OKAY
if people are familiar with African highlife songs, they will clearly know that this song has a touch of high life in it. This is one sick track.
high life? can you direct me to this style of music please? I love ittttt!!!!
Feministe Wynn search for osadebe or ebenezer obey or king sunny ade☺️
iaytoao _ 😂😂😂 My first thought
iaytoao _ danke! You right, too, he does look like he could be closely related :p
Chee Neh Emelum thank you :) :)
He should be an actor. The look on his face at the end made me feel genuinely sorry for him. Love this song and video!
He is an actor,
Tiya B he was in luke cage that’s why I’m here
@@theatrain9275 Didn't even know that
June 2024 and still can’t get over this song❤❤
Am in it now❤
I swear
Same here
Likewise yooo❤😊😊
July 2024. 7::22am(UK time)
His music is so slept on it hurts
peachichi f xd
peachichi its not great thats why. Only good song is classic man. After than i slept on his music literally.
Its because classic man is lowkey radio garbage and thats what people think of when someone talks about his music
peachichi This song geys radio play in my city
completely agree - i think he'll blow up like Khalid tho
This man has created his own lane. Drive on sir!
So true and a great way of putting it. I truly love those who create their own lanes in this brutal industry. Good work Jidenna.
thunderboltll you know they let you be the creative mind for your 1st or 2nd album then they change you...look what happened to the Weeknd...he's a star boy now
Peggy Arthur yes! Was just saying that I wasn't sure how to describe him!
Peggy Arthur AMEN 💯
thunderboltll he truly is a breath of fresh air in a 🌎of pollution. *sways side to side*
"I'm afraid to look back in your eyes, I'm terrified you were the love of my life" - always hits
Still listing October 2024 still one of my best songs
That’s what’s up
Bro am here
This is trap mixed with Nigerian high life music
It's genius #creativity
like suscribete
I get what you guys mean now....
Richard Amanatey the production is trap genre oriented please chill dude
Demarco Tellis I understand now. You're right and I apologies. I'm not really into trap. thanks.
Richard Amanatey the hihat and snare rolls snare patterns the production is very trap banger esque. I'm not saying he's rapping on the topics of general trap music
He's dressed better than the groom! 😆🙌🏾
Tshepo Mathekga lol i was thinking the same
Tshepo Mathekga "I don't want my best dressed day in a casket."
he was super dope...his watch was shaper than the groom whole entire ensemble
I think that was the point. He LOOKS better but he was clearly not the better choice.
TheElizabeth125 but based on the lyrics i feel like he was the better choice, that he's not a lion or cheetah. ( comment above broke it down pretty nicely )
Most underrated song of our decade.
Omni Ulricson he’s THE most underrated artist of the decades!
@@ashesly just bout to say that
Highkey
This is nostalgia for me
Indeed
I named my newly born son Jidenna because of this song(May 13th 2024). Im addicted to it,and all of Jidenna's songs. One of my dreams in life is meeting this my Igbo brother one day. Amazing singer,God bless u richly.
It will happen brother. It will. Raise jidenna to be the real king that he is.
congratulations! mine turned 21, the days are long, but the years go fast. I wish i couldve been a more patient and understanding father, such is life.
@mayson123456 Thanks Brother
My daughter was born May 13th. Congratulations to you my brother!
Congratulations on the birth of your baby boy. Amazing name you chose. 🥰
I just heard this song less than 24 hours ago and I am sure it has crack in it. I can't stop listening.
Ms. Marj lmao
Ms. Marj lmao!
ME TOO!!!
Ms. Marj SAME!
that about sums up what I just explained to a friend...
Jidenna is the TRUTH. Real artistry 😘
Shani Shani your hole head look like art nigga
vrice896 It's "whole", not hole. Stay in school, dummy. 👍
Coming back after 5 years to listen to this masterpiece once again, never gets old.
Same!
Baby wange bambi 😊
Và
Same y’all
I shot my shot with this song, she liked me a lot, I liked her too. she’s married now…it hits harder now
Thank you Bambi for making this man give us this classic record.
😂😂
Wicked 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Right!? Would love to know more about this Bambi Bambi deer dearheart 🩵
NOBODY ELSE could have pulled this off so effortlessly. Respect
so right
Lol he actually strongly resembles Stromae. His looks, his style, they could be brothers.......
true...wow
West African style
@JADE NOVAH DID!!!
This has to be one of the most underrated songs ever. So dissapointed that a lot of people don't know it
hello what's poping
I agree with you
True, I feel sorry for people who have never heard this song
Frr
Agreed. This song gives me such a full range of emotions and thoughts.
One of those songs where I started off like "what the hell" then slowly started smiling. love this man
Jordan Strong I'm sure that was the reaction of half the people who viewed this. In life you don't always know what you need, until you come across it. Jidenna just proved that.
I'm smiling right now
it is short of what song is about.. the slow realization of love (for bambi). :-)
Aleia Lopez Right. . . . .
Jordan Strong omg yes
Bambi is a ugandan word that means "Please" so as a Ugandan I felt this song with all my heart, PLEASE MY DEAR
Bambi is a word for ugandan languages meaning sorry or please..the song has African flow too 😍
Cohen cyrus Bambi in the song is saying that he cheated on and lied to her basically she is prey
O wow and his Nigeria 🇳🇬 proud Africa
From Uganda
He is Nigerian American dudes dad is Nigerian and Mom is white.
VERY African flow.this was the type od music our father s generation used to listen to growing up.but it was in african languages.
I love him yo. I don't care. I love him. Touch of Harry Belefonte wit his smooth ass voice. Remaining true to his African heritage with the lyrics. Got a fire snare drum making it more Hip Hop with some bars for flavor! Man is made of Melanin, Magic, and Music!
I love the fact that you can't compare him to anyone..true artist, real talent and vision. I love it!!💖💖
agreeeeeed
I haven't heard any of his songs since Classic Man lol
Those Great Videos coz u don't look for them
Libra Lady02 Drake
sylvester marvin Yeah, not really... lol I only found it beczuse it was on trending.
March 2024, who is listening to this song? ❤️
Yassssssss❤

Hell yea. I dig the vintage sound of his voice mixed with a modern beat and tune
Ya Boi i got the same vibe

Lyrics.....Jidenna-Bambi
Bambi, Bambi
My dear, my dear, my dear
My dear I want you here
Don't get too near for there's lions beware
Oh Bambi I won't lie
If I weren't in this spider web of mine
If grandfather never had seven wives
Then darling you would be love of my life
Oh Bambi it's my design
To run the jungle I must be a lion
Or be a cheetah but neither is fine
Don't wanna hurt my dear love of my life
Bambi, Bambi
My dear, my dear, my dear
My dear I want you here
Don't get too near for there's lions beware
Sometimes I hide
When you FaceTime I text you back a lie
Cause I'm afraid to look back in your eyes
I'm terrified you were love of my life
The woman among the tribe
They will be jealous of this lullaby
I'll drink alone in my hotel and cry
Cause now they know you are love of my life
Bambi, Bambi
My dear, my dear, my dear
My dear I want you here
Don't get too near for there's lions beware
I wish that we were forever young
I always knew that this day would come
The fork in the road where I cannot run
Between love and many I'm loving one
I got the wedding invitation Bambi
I'm happy that he wants to make a family
But I cannot promise I won't run up in the church
There screaming your name Bambi
No one can take you from me Bambi
No one can take you from me Bambi
No one can take you from me Bambi
Bambi, Bambi
My dear I want you here
Oh baby don't get too near
No there are lions beware
awesome music............................................................................................................
Husyarp Alariok thank you!
no problem
Husyarp Alariok thank you!
Husyarp Alariok awesome
"between loving many and loving one"

The only thing that heals this is time. And even then, there's a part of you that isn't the same. You just learn to adjust with a piece of you that's gone.
Yeah, that was deep.
Why did you have to say that?? 😭
The way this song incorporated musicality from classic tunes of the 1900's and the fire snare beats of the 21st century is unmatched 🔥
Highlife blend with classical. Check it out "highlife" its African but i can bet youd enjoy the magic
i loveeeee this song. The intro reminds me of traditional igbo music, thanks for bringing this mainstream Jidenna.
This is West African Highlife Music. Thumbs up, Jidenna. Making Naija, Ghana and Salone proud.
And Nigeria
Dara Okon That's what he's referring to when he says Naija. That's Nigeria's nick name.
Dara Okon, Naija is Nigeria's nickname and Salone is Sierra Leone's nickname.
Taiwo Orogbangba right! This has real meaning to it and as an African (Togolese/Ghanaian) 🇹🇬🇬🇭who's obsessed with African music, this is a really good mix of hip hop and African music!!!
Gabrielle Agbenyiga, true. And the West African culture is somehow connected.
Dude is so underrated..
Sorry boy
Because he has not sold his soul yet
Very slept on! He won't sell out and that's why he isn't a big name.
I know righttttt
Robby Hood
In August, I'm still listening listening to this music. Love from Burundi❤❤❤
Him showing up to the wedding with that drunk clap is classic.
Haha that is indeed a drunk ass clap!!!
😂
I swear bruh
Lmfaoooo man listen that was the shadiest clap ever🤣😂
Facts lmaoo
I'm lovin the African elements of this song, it's a really cool fusion of African/Western music. They have this type of style all over West Africa
Indeed! I like it too!
Scorpion Soul That's where we come from. Hebrew nation
Its not african and western more of like african and african american fusion.
Ogas on top exactly! Most good music from western nations is black music
When the song lyrics actually coorelate with the video and tells a story.
King Immersion it’s cool
Waoh
Aka; rare
@Azure Yvng Love Joyner too
What does it mean?
April 2024 , who listening to this song ☺️❤️

@@aprilvanillasunshine8408 I know right...
It's like reggae without being reggae, it's like jazz without being jazz, it's like big band without being big band, it's like calypso without being calypso and when that trap beat drops it just the most unique sound I've heard in a long time. I have listened to this song so many times I should be sick of it but how can I be it's too fire.

Sorry for your lost
Rest well Kwame Asante
Prayers out to you Stephen and of course, Kwame. Peace is at your door, now is the time to enjoy it. 🙂That goes for both of you. :) Be well.
So sorry
Sorry about your loss, you must have loved him. May his soul rest in perfect peace Amen
I cannot tell you how nice it is to see a classy black artist that's not all about boobs & butts jiggling on the screen. black folks have beautiful voices & it's nice to hear those voices again free from autotune.
Chris & Wanda boobs and butts aren't the problem. shitty "artists" like 21 savage, Kodak black, lil yachty and Lil Uzi getting fame is the problem. all pull more views than jidenna and I saw yachty on TV during the grammys.
Chris & Wanda sad it won't get half the views it deserves
They've always been there. Just look into a different genre if trap music isn't your thing. It's not a "black folks" issue. Let people like what they like without being beneath you.
Chris & Wanda real talk
Chris & Wanda Ikr!
The break away from today's music expectation is a perfect combination with his voice.
absolutely
whoa, this sound like an adult lullaby. i didnt even watch the video except a snippet. the sound did something to me like when motown singers use to serenade women into lusting for them. Amazing
Matasha Lee My dear my dear my dear
July 2024 , who's listening to this amazing song?❤
A rapper with style and class, intelligent with an amazing family background, he worked from little to everything, did what others said he couldn't, has amazing vocals and looks and isn't afraid to show his weakness/breakdown over the love of his life... All round amazing man. Amazing chief should I say
Gonk I mean I wouldn’t exactly call him a rapper, besides the rap-like beat
Salute to the guy whose shot and edited this video, 2019 still hot
That's right
Yeah they were superv with the shooting. And Jidenna acted the hell out of this as well
This is such a beautiful afrocentric song beautiful African MELODY with music. it brings back so many memories...😋😙
Sun Shine
Yeah!
you can almost feel the traditional sound

This is one of a kind song. Listening to him made me reminisce on good old memories.

Too dope💖
He so good that it's almost certainly intentional the Lion and Cheetah are almost homophones of lying and cheater. Took me half a dozen listens to click on to that one :O

Oh
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Bambi, Bambi
My dear, my dear, my dear
My dear I want you here
Don't get too near for there's lions beware
Oh Bambi I won't lie
If I weren't in this spider web of mine
If grandfather never had seven wives
Then darling you would be love of my life
Oh Bambi it's my design
To run the jungle I must be a lion
Or be a cheetah but neither is fine
Don't wanna hurt my dear love of my life
Bambi, Bambi
My dear, my dear, my dear
My dear I want you here
Don't get too near for there's lions beware
Sometimes I hide
When you FaceTime I text you back a lie
Cause I'm afraid to look back in your eyes
I'm terrified you were love of my life
The woman among the tribe
They will be jealous of this lullaby
I'll drink alone in my hotel and cry
Cause now they know you are love of my life
Bambi, Bambi
My dear, my dear, my dear
My dear I want you here
Don't get too near for there's lions beware
I wish that we were forever young
I always knew that this day would come
The fork in the road where I cannot run
Between love and many I'm loving one
I got the wedding invitation Bambi
I'm happy that he wants to make a family
But I cannot promise I won't run up in the church
There screaming your name Bambi
No one can take you from me Bambi
No one can take you from me Bambi
No one can take you from me Bambi
Bambi, Bambi
My dear I want you here
Oh baby don't get too near
No there are lions beware
Anyone October 2024??😊😊😅
Am here baby
Yes actually lol
I ran into a Family Dollar to get wrapping paper yesterday and heard this playing over the speaker. I stopped and listen and because I only listen to gospel I thought ' nice song for my first and only time to hear it'. However the beat stayed in my head and Bambi on my mjnd, that I had to come looking for it. Good job to this young man
Ranae Barker love this comment; thank you for sharing your story with us 🙌💗
2023 and I’m here smiling at every single lyric in this song, cuz we made lots of memories with this song, he even called me Bambi. But it’s all good, we smile, we heal, we pray and move on. This song never gets old❤️❤️🔥❤️🔥Always Gold. Thank u Jide💞
It will never get old ❤🤍💯
Love this
2024 and still loving this song
how is jide
I've also wondering where he is
Why isn't this guy given the credit he deserves right now. He should be spoken of in the same breath as Drake, Weeknd, Kanye, Breezy and all those guys. The Chief album is dope.
Kevin when i first heard long live the chief, i automatically thought the same thing..he'll be there soon..he's great..you can tell in his music
Kevin nooooo dont put him in with them...he has created his own lane...they could never match his artistry...this song sounds like Nat King Cole poured slowly over a hip hop beat...stirred not shaken💜
lashirnette I get it but I mean in terms of relevancy, he should be on their level when it comes to relevancy.
***** hes above them...kinda how MJ & Prince was above er'body
***** 😑
Playing this, 17 July 2024
Time:22:40....happy time❤
If grandfather never had seven wives then Bambi you'd be love of my life
Took me out 😂😂😉
Yeah...I don't get that part 😕
MsOnTopOfTheWorld he doesn’t know how to be with one person, he’s blaming his upbringing.
@@msontopoftheworld I think he's fallen in love with his sister. One of his grandfather's wives' daughter and it's impossible to marry her since they're family. Reason why he's in the spider web. He can do nothing about it.
Facts! Lol🤣
Nab Scosco wait Fr?
Lil Scrappy somewhere singing the shh outta this song 😂
lala omar 😂
lala omar that was my first thoughts as well
lala omar the internet is undefeated 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
lala omar I CAN SEE THAT!!
MY NEW OBSESSION, IT HAS BEEN ON LOOP FOR 5 HOURS NOW. THE SONG IS GENIUS. GIVES ME THE FEELS.
Samira S been listening to it on repeat all day too!!! jidenna is an amazing artist!
This tune is not just music,these are words carved out of real lives. That's why it's so relatable. Forever refreshing 😢😭🥶
This Nigga's style is everything!?✊😯💀
Hes a classic man
On god do you know what kind of suite he's wearing cuz I'm tryna cop something similar
I love his singing voice as much as I love his rapping voice
