if we're being honest this is a grammy award winning song, it is incredible, chilling and perfectly pictured story it is a masterpiece and the best part is it's true and dave was only 18 when he wrote this
When man paused and said,"It's her friend, It's her friend right?" I was like how'd this man know. I was shocked asf when I found out and this man just guessed that shit like it was nothing.
Interestingly enough on the final track 'Drama' of his album Psychodrama (the album Lesley is on) Dave says that he actually based Lesley off of a family member, which makes this song hit even harder than anyone knew it could.
He didn't really state it, but he slightly implied it. I believe it was something along the lines of "do you believe that I can illustrate what Streatham (where he grew up and another song on Psychodrama) is then break the 4th wall and base Lesley on my relatives"
@@adeyemiadetokunbo3133 he said he "based it on my relatives" so it's not 100% true but it's inspired by true events. I think that means the details are changed but the story is still the same
This song is better than any poem I’ve heard and it’s over a beat too which obviously makes it more difficult, Dave is just a genius, and when you hear Dave say on Heart Attack that his mother was pushed down the stairs with the commas inverted when she was pregnant with him basically implying that the character of Lesley is based on his own mother and the baby that died was potentially him if she wasn’t more lucky in real life
Yesss, Been waiting for this one for a while! If you want more like this then: How I met my ex My 19th birthday Drama Or you know Dave can do it all try these out too: Professor X Paper cuts Hangman Samantha
Dave is a great story teller … really paints a picture… so talented but like the comment underneath cadet was also great … deffo worth a listen “how many Lesley’s are running from there Jason’s” hits different man 💔
Scru… I’m so happy you’ve experienced this, it still shakes me to my core hearing this and everyone needs help sometimes.. honestly I’m glad you didn’t speak as much in this as your usual reactions this is probably the least you’ve ever spoken in a 15 minute reaction and I’m glad because let’s be real you can probably agree this is a movie you don’t talk through this, you sit, listen and understand

This hit hard. Not from experience personally but I know women that went through this. And I wished they'd called but it's common to hide it. It's never their fault but like I said never been there. What Dave was saying is true and common and we can't change people but we can change how we look at them. I just hope anyone that needs help knows to ask and who to ask.❤
let's goooo, finally! ima cop a pillow just for this. also pls do My 19th Birthday, shit is raw and also the "prequel" to my 24th birthday that you did
12:46 The way I understood it, Jason beat her up so badly (Nose gone, blood splattered onto the wall, jaw line shattered, brain damage) that she fell into a coma right after giving birth to the baby.
@Shiaeine Blake Sounded to me like she's dead. But he also said that shes in a coma at the moment: "She dozing off, doctors getting no response Her heart rate slowing down and they don't know what's wrong But she fading out, oh She took damage to the brain and *now she's in a coma as we speak*"
@Shiaeine Blake The "a child without a name" line made me think she gave birth but wasn't able to name the baby, but maybe I am looking into it too much
This was actually a true story with someone who Dave knew and the reason why the song is called Lesley is due to the mother died giving birth to the baby and was delivered by a nurse called Lesley❤

Yeah I was absolutely stunned this hasn’t won an award. Truly one of the most powerful pieces of music I’ve ever listened to possibly ever created
The "little red tear through a bloodshot eye" line hits me in a way that I dont think any other lyric ever has. What brilliant imagery
Same man a lot of lines in this song hit hard dave is the best at painting pictures in the listeners head
@@j.ma1308 its incredible, like it appeals to you as a man at the depth of your soul to hear these words about a woman being treated that way
@@andrewdonaldson8369 mmmmmmm so tough
Can i ask you something?
@@marc1755 yes
"how many lesleys are running from their jasons" is one of the best lyrics in musi, just... so much weight to it
When man paused and said,"It's her friend, It's her friend right?"
I was like how'd this man know.

it’s about someone he met on the train he was on one day like it says at the start of the song
@@lydianixon9145 You’re wrong. Go listen to Drama and he explains that Lesley is based on a family member.
@@Dixnnn If that was true, why did he mentioned that Jason was all Lesley had as a family? Did you get that?
He didn't really state it, but he slightly implied it. I believe it was something along the lines of "do you believe that I can illustrate what Streatham (where he grew up and another song on Psychodrama) is then break the 4th wall and base Lesley on my relatives"

This song moves me man. It’s unbelievable.
this songs even crazier when you know that this was a real life situation Dave watched a family member go through, great reaction as usual scru 🫶🏻
Dave 'How I met my Ex' is a must watch.
love this song so much, both his albums are bangers you should listen to Both Sides of a Smile with James Blake next
Both sides of a smile is one of my favorite songs
Please do
The most underrated track on that album
So underrated
Big tuneeeee
Dave is a genius. You should do "Professor X" by Dave. It is great!
Professor X cause true say the back ain’t there but the brain is brilliant
or the underrated Gods eye
This song is better than any poem I’ve heard and it’s over a beat too which obviously makes it more difficult, Dave is just a genius, and when you hear Dave say on Heart Attack that his mother was pushed down the stairs with the commas inverted when she was pregnant with him basically implying that the character of Lesley is based on his own mother and the baby that died was potentially him if she wasn’t more lucky in real life
Dave goated. This song is unbelievable
Damn I legit got chills from this one. Dave really is a next level artist!
This album made me say Dave was one of the best, the song made me say he’s the GOAT story teller. The imagery is unreal, this is literally a movie
Dave - Three Rivers. I’ll keep plugging this. It is easily one of his best songs. You’ll know when you listen to it.
Dave's my favourite artist and I somehow have been sleeping on this one
Scruuuu we need both sides of a smile!!!!! Dave 🔥
Yesss, Been waiting for this one for a while!

My 19th birthday is a must! Dave's best song imo
🔥 reaction
Finally, the classic
This is such a good song. An experience.
Crazy part is the only saved number they saw was Jason’s meaning Hannah didn’t even save Lesley’s number
Dave - question time PLEAAASE BROTHER❤️
Wow just wow this was great 👍
Keep up the great content Scru💪
This hit hard. Not from experience personally but I know women that went through this. And I wished they'd called but it's common to hide it. It's never their fault but like I said never been there.

Every time I watch your reactions, I feel happy! that's it.
Dave really just raps every style so while it's crazy
Need me a dave marathon
Thank you
let's goooo, finally! ima cop a pillow just for this. also pls do My 19th Birthday, shit is raw and also the "prequel" to my 24th birthday that you did
❤️ reaction
This is str8 🔥🔥 strong ass message bro.
19th Birthday is a must
all u can do with dave is sit there in awe of rhymes and storytelling
12:46 The way I understood it, Jason beat her up so badly (Nose gone, blood splattered onto the wall, jaw line shattered, brain damage) that she fell into a coma right after giving birth to the baby.
@Shiaeine Blake Sounded to me like she's dead. But he also said that shes in a coma at the moment:

Her heart rate slowing down and they don't know what's wrong
But she fading out, oh
She took damage to the brain and *now she's in a coma as we speak*"
@Shiaeine Blake I always thought the therapist was talking to Dave all the way through, but I can see how this would work with it being Lesley too.
@Shiaeine Blake The "a child without a name" line made me think she gave birth but wasn't able to name the baby, but maybe I am looking into it too much
How I met my ex and my 19th birthday are similar vibes, very deep
You've experienced this story of Lesley?
Love that you got to this
Ya boi only went and did it 💪
Love the content bro dave is my favourite rapper he is so talented

Still to discover Knucks, Little Simz, J-Hus..
PS Hitsquad smashed the views too.. Petrol Station w/ Kwengface or No Miming freestyle..
This was actually a true story with someone who Dave knew and the reason why the song is called Lesley is due to the mother died giving birth to the baby and was delivered by a nurse called Lesley❤
How did you know?
