Intellectually there’s nobody close enough to consider…as for lyrically I’m sure people can appreciate others for their style/ability-but if you dig into the diversity of their vocabulary Akala comes out on top again…..guess I’m getting old cause ain’t nobody else really come close to Akala IMO (I luv Immortal Technique,,Lowkey,,Vinnie Paz,,R A The Rugged Man…just to give the future reader a clue)
I have been into Hip Hop since the start, and there are many legends with a depth beyond the Marianas Trench e.g Jeru Da Damaja (too many too list). Then there's Akala a Grime MC on a totally other plain. I have never heard a brother blast so much truth with such Skillz, that his only competition is his last tune. A modern day prophet, with a finger not on the pulse (He is the PULSE). Knows shit that most would take a dozen lifetimes to learn. I love learning, its the path to real truth (depending what you learn). Choose The Right Path People. Dis man is a beacon. Proper Job Sir.
Hey mate, if that's true .. I got a mix for you ... It's a history of hip hop birth.. its on mixcloud, search for "the djproducer - groove records hardcore hip hop tribute" He is a techno producer DJ from the beginnings of the 80's but his hip hop was his 1sr love .. this set is truly sick and showcases the real beginnings of geo located hip hop styles and beefs 👍🤣🇬🇧🤔 Enjoy 👍
AKALA 'S music is what you want your children to listen to ! NO BAD LANGUAGE _ SEX TALK _ RACISM just positive energy, despite all this he never used his older sister MS Dynamic to elevate his self or career, all done by himself __ INDEPENDENT TO THE T. Where is F.I.T.B 5 ?
Akala and mic righteous(reckless) are built different💯 nobody in America, Canada or the uk have the same kind of wordplay nd flow. Truly underrated artists I cant believe they are so slept on
I still have to put Akala over Lowkey even though I personally love Lowkey more,,,& Immortal Technique is who led me to discover Lowkey,& then Akala(as a 37yr old white American male)
He is up there with anybody from the last 56 years of hip-hop and rap. A one off show with The Last Poets would just reset everything and show people this is how it should be.
Akala speaks such truth. It's both humbling and empowering at the same time. Wonderful man. We need to listen to people like this. Listen good please. ♥️💕♥️💕♥️💕
@@kushhcoffey1290 don't get me wrong Ocean Wisdoms first one was amazing and he's good but he's not quite Wretch level. If you deep Wretch's bars to their full potential then it's mind blowing
Still listening to this 2021 been following him since day dot along with lowkey best of British!!! Real fucking rap pure essence and truth!!! We need more like this sick of hearing of fake industry bitches!!! Dont give a fuck about how much money you got!!! This real shit!!
Sickest sick of all sick... Eminem... Busta.. they good rappers.. and talented artists regardless of your like or dislike... ... ...... But akala... Is just another level ... Lots of levels .. .... AND that without even mentioning the content difference .. lol... That would need a book to explain... Just .. sick as mate!!!! 😊👍🇬🇧🤔
Heard this guys name but never opened my ears to his lyrics. In these times, as a middle class white guy, I cannot honestly comprehend what his come up was like what he went through but I can hopefully raise my kids to be part of the solution. I live in a small market town with Bangladeshi and Pakistani families being mainly the only BAME cultures we have engaged with but I hope they recognise bigotry for what it is, "divide and conquer".
This shit ive been trying to say for 25 years.. I was diagnosed "speciel gifted ", intellectuall gift. Often high IQ, self-aware, social aware of global issues, always learning, dont trust media , get real facts, empathy, absorb ans understand when to question things ,autonomous,challengeing , creative, say what I think, dont Be a sheep even risks, understand locic,want justice, self critic and know i always will make misstakes So far its only been a curse for me.... And feels like living in truman show. People really think wars are for justice? BLM was for black people justice?feminism for helping people?.... And ad republcans, Democrats. Poor, rich , religion ( even rap is racist, country music Its no culture issue that no woman, white, asian rapped (woman back our white didnt even go to concerts) , most black people lived in South but wasnt accepted in either rap our country for long..... It was created , white label owners didnt signed other thsn black artists (almost) Crooked know alot of this. Music should unite people, and black people are superior at rap and changed my life, That still people talking about race is sick. Suddently people figtingfir vaccine, no vaccine, mask , no mask, quarantine, Lockdowns. So do a little study. They say 20 thousand people died in Covid-19? Average age 79. You know how many moore people in the world are in extreme poverty and in Average loose 25 years of life ?(Covid-19 2 years) Its the first time in 25 years poverty increased , it was estimated to go diwn to 65 million. Result? 150 million! Homeless people, all people in poor country most children who couldt get r actually life savings vaccines! Still 3 of the bigges lab who could produce vaccines where empty. Why? Because thus pandemic who was biggest dissater since ice age apparenty couldt afford to buy it. Process where 400% higher than ever. Rich cointries got 3--6 Covid-19 shots so between 60-120 million people will die Bevause of this... Life saving?yea right. and you got the answer..... Why know with all riot and dividing people noore than ever? Powerty Black people US 1980- 35% 2019 -18% , stil really sick. Woman percebtage vs men 1980-65% 2021-93 %. Not fair but maybee the rights direction And corona? Sweden has no mask,no quarantine, no Lockdown, no vaccine mandate, NP vaccine passports. Alot of death? No RRCORD low through all times and ALOT less than predicted before pandemic... Iam no doctor but I understand the main problem is 0.7% owns 90% of worls wealth.. And i know 1000s of black people died and got there business destroyd because of 1 dead by an idiot to police. I think like 90%: wants the same things. Avd its not that cointries spending so much money on weapon and shit to dictaturs countries. I dont label myself but I would go first if we united, black, white, religion (that dont harm human eqality), politics (iam not that naiva anymoore that think it matters) Sorry för long massage but so sick that people are to lazy looking up facts. Read ordinarie men then you know 90% would fight for the nazi. Read stanford experiment then you know 90% would tranform to a sadist in 2 days if given power. Read push % riots you know 90% would kill an innicent people to save hildelf and 90% of violent riots never where violent (And 1 year study of humans behavior, body langues, communication then you can tell by 90% if an polituan telling the truth... But I wish I didnt cared so muc and followed the sheeps avd no anxity, depression and shit. Thx
Lyrics are out of this world!!!!! Constructively..I would love if he could ride the beat better 😟 so much to say it feels rushed. Number one on my playlist though :-) can't get enough of it! The knowledge and chakra energy is everything!!!!
Still mind blowing in 2024 👊
I come back to this video every 6 months or so. Never EVER disappointed ❤
2023 and still one of the best to ever do it
I disagree
Great input Mark. Fantastic. Like a politician. No reason why. You must be from Oxford
Trying to find a competitor for Akala…it’s been over a decade,& I ain’t found it yet..
Intellectually there’s nobody close enough to consider…as for lyrically I’m sure people can appreciate others for their style/ability-but if you dig into the diversity of their vocabulary Akala comes out on top again…..guess I’m getting old cause ain’t nobody else really come close to Akala IMO
(I luv Immortal Technique,,Lowkey,,Vinnie Paz,,R A The Rugged Man…just to give the future reader a clue)
u.k king fr
So educated and informed. An amazing human being to witness.
Facts
I turned this vid from 42 min long to 2 hrs long with all the rewinds I gave it
I have been into Hip Hop since the start, and there are many legends with a depth beyond the Marianas Trench e.g Jeru Da Damaja (too many too list). Then there's Akala a Grime MC on a totally other plain. I have never heard a brother blast so much truth with such Skillz, that his only competition is his last tune.

Hey mate, if that's true .. I got a mix for you ... It's a history of hip hop birth.. its on mixcloud, search for
"the djproducer - groove records hardcore hip hop tribute"
He is a techno producer DJ from the beginnings of the 80's but his hip hop was his 1sr love .. this set is truly sick and showcases the real beginnings of geo located hip hop styles and beefs 👍🤣🇬🇧🤔
Enjoy 👍
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Facx
Soo true 💟💟

-a 38yr old white guy from Pennsylvania USA
Akala is underrated. Wisdom in every bar.
Not by anyone who has liste
Nitwittery incarnate. The word underrated is thrown around the internet by virtue signaling fools who correlate quality and 'rating' with popularity.
Definitely not underrated. Not by half. Man's a UK legend
Real ones know
This guy is beyond words. Theres just no better I swear
I was a few years above this guy in the same school, one very intelligent guy.
Very talented footballer too
Okay what school was it then?
Peter Rennie
Acland Burghley, his sister also attended.
Where tbey.filmed the steven moffat show?
Played for West Ham Youth
@Mark Kelly. Akala is the only mc I've heard rapping about the size and cost of his library.
The most academic rapper in history, watched this many times. “You have more in common with immigrants then with your leaders” is my favourite bar
When I heard part 4.. I've never forgotten him. He really is on a league of his own when it comes to freestyle and rap
PROPHET ❤️ MUCH LOVE BROTHERS AND SISTER'S LISTEN 🙏❤️🙏 WORD ( = TRUTH 😇) AMEN X
Prophet. Not a sell out.
I got to see him and lowkey on same stage back in 2013. Small gig was epic to see him do this live.
Amazing Artist on all levels. A serious lyricist!! Akala is king on the mike!!
Honestly the intelligence of his bars Iv never seen before
Show it to some Americans. It’s the proof that UK owns the best MCs and most real raps
Lowkey . . .
Me Ether!!!! Til I sampled Cambatta!!! If they collabed 2gether!!!!??? Woahhhhh!!!!!!!😳🧐✊🏽💯✔️✊
Logic?
Stand Up Before I Stand Down by Logic
Best rapper in the world. and only 17k views wtf is wrong with people.. Kala !!
these vids on there own have many millions of views on the main channels
^
I agree 💯. My children can listen to him when ever they want. A very wise man. Love it. ❤
I'm soooo OBSESSED. This man is educating 😍😍💋💋💟💟💗💗
He’s unreL
Please listen to Lowkey Fire in the booth as well I think you will like it.
AKALA 'S music is what you want your children to listen to ! NO BAD LANGUAGE _ SEX TALK _ RACISM just positive energy, despite all this he never used his older sister MS Dynamic to elevate his self or career, all done by himself __ INDEPENDENT TO THE T. Where is F.I.T.B 5 ?
Akala and mic righteous(reckless) are built different💯 nobody in America, Canada or the uk have the same kind of wordplay nd flow. Truly underrated artists I cant believe they are so slept on
100% Fact.
I agree , Akala well and truly slept on !
immortal technique.
have several seats. thank you.
Came to mention Immortal Technique..a much angrier version of Lowkey\Akala,, but still dropping knowledge,& most importantly~self reflection.
Wow 😮 Still amazing in 2022.... Perfect
&late October 2023
It’s timeless really
Keep old school grime alive
Everyone saying he’s underrated, I see it as only the real understand his wisdom ! So if you’re here , you are awesome
u to my brother
Jedi master on the mic 🔥 if more young kids listened hard to his visionary message they could benefit so could our streets.....
He’s legends Luke Skywalker…
Before our time... Amazed think I'm in love .....
This is by far the best rap. Real talk!👌
Keep coming come back to this, Akala flow is just insane!
^^ This
The best, maybe Lowkey is on the same level.. Them two, ok maybe Immortal Technique . . . them 3
Ocean wisdom and knucks best of the youngers
Those are the 3
Others may be close but can’t take the step to their level (like Mic Righteous/RA The Rugged Man/Vinnie Paz/Black The Ripper)
I still have to put Akala over Lowkey even though I personally love Lowkey more,,,& Immortal Technique is who led me to discover Lowkey,& then Akala(as a 37yr old white American male)
SELF EDUCATION IS THE KEY!!! READ, READ, READ..... What you take in you must put out!!😍 Akala the philosopher!
He is up there with anybody from the last 56 years of hip-hop and rap. A one off show with The Last Poets would just reset everything and show people this is how it should be.
So much respect for this young brother 🙏🙏
Genius. no more to say.
Could listen to this guy all day
I'm sure I had comment on here years ago, just came back. Legend
Still the hardest in 2023 🤝🏽
I love this man, its that lifestyle that i can relate in so many levels.
As far as im concerned, there are no other uk rappers.. this man is dangerously knowledgeable 🤯👌
Part 1 and 4 were insane
Mans so passionate. I fucking love akala. Top 3 💯
hes got damn talent... real talent!
Akala speaks such truth. It's both humbling and empowering at the same time. Wonderful man. We need to listen to people like this. Listen good please. ♥️💕♥️💕♥️💕
Genius ❤
Bro the scene was lit back then. We had some of the beat lyricist in the world floating round the UK grim scene around 2010s
I just purchased AKALA's book, along with Malcolm X's autobiography!
Gonna listen to the audio book of Malcolm and I should check out akala’s books
Turn the other cheek,. massive point
The sheep 🐑 loving it.
Always thought wretch had best session with Charlie but this guys defo changed my mind
Ocean Wisdoms is better than Wrech's but Akala's is sheer truth so trumps all.
@@kushhcoffey1290 give lowkey his respect as well
All about r.s look at the views
@@kushhcoffey1290 don't get me wrong Ocean Wisdoms first one was amazing and he's good but he's not quite Wretch level. If you deep Wretch's bars to their full potential then it's mind blowing
@@jaysherriff3086 what
"Ain't a pedophile or a colonist" Such truth. So much information in 6 words. Nothing but love for Akala from me
UK KING
Thanks for this edit.
Still listening to this 2021 been following him since day dot along with lowkey best of British!!! Real fucking rap pure essence and truth!!! We need more like this sick of hearing of fake industry bitches!!! Dont give a fuck about how much money you got!!! This real shit!!
Living legend 🔥🔥🙌

Heard this guys name but never opened my ears to his lyrics.

STRAIGHT FAAAXXX
Leant more watching this than 5 yrs at Secondary School and 3 years at college.
Hes the uk pac!!! Most underrated rapper in the uk!! Real words real life!!
How is there so few comments???? Firrreeee
For the exact reason he mentioned.....
People are un-educated and the Yt algorithm won't push him as he speaks the truth.
most people are too amazed to comment
Respect
god bless brother
Akala should run for MP
Perfect!
tunes get he bigs up the irish black thing taght me few lessons
How the hell is this guy not number 1 in the world???
This shit ive been trying to say for 25 years..
I was diagnosed "speciel gifted ", intellectuall gift.
Often high IQ, self-aware, social aware of global issues, always learning, dont trust media , get real facts, empathy, absorb ans understand when to question things ,autonomous,challengeing , creative, say what I think, dont Be a sheep even risks, understand locic,want justice, self critic and know i always will make misstakes
So far its only been a curse for me....
And feels like living in truman show.
People really think wars are for justice? BLM was for black people justice?feminism for helping people?....
And ad republcans, Democrats.
Poor, rich , religion ( even rap is racist, country music
Its no culture issue that no woman, white, asian rapped (woman back our white didnt even go to concerts) , most black people lived in South but wasnt accepted in either rap our country for long.....
It was created , white label owners didnt signed other thsn black artists (almost)
Crooked know alot of this.
Music should unite people, and black people are superior at rap and changed my life,
That still people talking about race is sick.
Suddently people figtingfir vaccine, no vaccine, mask , no mask, quarantine, Lockdowns.
So do a little study.
They say 20 thousand people died in Covid-19? Average age 79.
You know how many moore people in the world are in extreme poverty and in Average loose 25 years of life ?(Covid-19 2 years)
Its the first time in 25 years poverty increased , it was estimated to go diwn to 65 million.
Result?
150 million! Homeless people, all people in poor country most children who couldt get r actually life savings vaccines!
Still 3 of the bigges lab who could produce vaccines where empty.
Why? Because thus pandemic who was biggest dissater since ice age apparenty couldt afford to buy it.
Process where 400% higher than ever.
Rich cointries got 3--6 Covid-19 shots so between 60-120 million people will die Bevause of this...
Life saving?yea right.
and you got the answer.....
Why know with all riot and dividing people noore than ever?
Powerty Black people US 1980- 35%
2019 -18% , stil really sick.
Woman percebtage vs men 1980-65%
2021-93 %.
Not fair but maybee the rights direction
And corona?
Sweden has no mask,no quarantine, no Lockdown, no vaccine mandate, NP vaccine passports.
Alot of death?
No RRCORD low through all times and ALOT less than predicted before pandemic...
Iam no doctor but I understand the main problem is 0.7% owns 90% of worls wealth..
And i know 1000s of black people died and got there business destroyd because of 1 dead by an idiot to police.
