Ibrahim I think what they meant was music that doesn’t sound like his isn’t considered music. music has heart and soul, if an artist doesn’t express that thru their music then it’s just sound
‘Guns drugs violence lust ...’ these young artists are coming up. God is paving them the way. No nudity no perversion no evil stuff. I like to see this positive uplifting music. We need more of this especially from young black brothers.
you must not understand the song lol he's singing about drugs guns and violence in his home town and a girl whos not afraid to be involved. this is some heartache shit.
Ibrahim You understand that was a joke right? I even said “nah seriously though...” afterward. 🤦🏽♂️ And I also called the whole EP beautiful. If I truly meant that I woulda called the EP disappointing 🤦🏽♂️
His voice is so comforting, feels like a hug from him. Makes me feel like it’s a lullaby cause it’s so relaxing it’ll put me to sleep, so soothing and smooth love it 😍 !!!!!
I literally found your music on Wednesday and I’m already hooked on. Words can’t describe how your words resonate with my inner thoughts that I can’t say out loud. Thank you for sharing your gift to us. ❤️❤️
This is the vibes. When he said won't let you go.... I felt that in my soul. I just love listening to this song at night when I got blunts ready to smoke and the car on full gas to cruise around the city. No matter what time of day it is. My soul mourns the loss my twin flame...I feel the earthquake of emotion wanting to burst out of my chest.
There are songs you look back on that really unlock memories and feelings from a particular time in your life. Like a tardis.. they transport you back to a time.. a place.. a person.. And unlock all those feelings that you experienced in that moment.. Whether they be feelings of Excitement, hope and positivity…or Vulnerability..lust..and fragility.. Thanks Giveon!
This is the most beautiful acoustic I have ever heard and may ever hear. His voice mesmerizes me beyond words, and this album mesmerizes me beyond words.

I stood for love, I left, but he won't let me go.....
I have been only listening to u and all of your songs on replay every day I’m so in love with your voice. Love every song I swear. They all give me so much emotion.
This is the best EP I’ve ever heard. I can literally listen to it over and over and never get tired of it. I can’t wait to see the growth of Giveon🖤💜 #herebeforeheblowsup
The originality is King always! Nice to see your roots in the background with the Long Beach sign. My God mother was lived there while I was growing up. Bravo on this simple and cool sounding work of art a true master piece!!!
Our City Giveon.....Love it, They don't know about the 2-1 and that Eastside 562.....Born and raised in the LBC....even though I am 13yrs old then Giveon. There's nothing like the city by the sea LBC.....

This is one of those EP’s where I have to listen to it in its entirety. Only song I don’t really care for is “VANISH” and I wish that it was longer too 😭
Giveon, Lucky Daye, and Brent deserve the hype. Imagine a feature 😌
Diah Brown watch them all collab in the future 🔥🔥🔥

It’s the way he utilises his plug ins and his attention to not straining a single vocal lick :)

This guy really makes music, that’s all I can say about him.
JosephTheGod that’s pretty obvious. Should’ve said he can make music like no one else. I’m just here to spread knowledge
Ibrahim I think what they meant was music that doesn’t sound like his isn’t considered music. music has heart and soul, if an artist doesn’t express that thru their music then it’s just sound
R&B needs this so bad
Stanley Mangum okay dummy
Anthony Wavy why are you mad .. get a life .

1:32 that rip on “show you the city that made me like this”! You can tell his vocals aren’t for play.
I absolutely adore Giveon in every way and I hope he will never stop making music
Stop doing this to us Giveon 😔 I mean I don't mind replaying 50/11 times, but we want longerrrrr 😩😣😍
This is the most beautiful acoustic I have ever heard and may ever hear. His voice mesmerizes me beyond words, and this album mesmerizes me beyond words.

Lyrics:
I don't know if it was fireworks or gunshots
But the birds is in the air
She just let me know
Where they show no fear
It ain't safe 'round here
But she still gonna hold on
It ain't safe 'round here
But she doesn't run from right here
Lust, guns, drugs, violence
Lust, guns, drugs, violence, ooh
Oh, won't let you go, go, go
Won't let you go, go, go
Go, oh-oh, ooh
Your mama warned you 'bout 562
To tell you the truth, she ain't lyin' to you
Baby, you said you ain't scared
Oh, girl, I love how you care
I'll put your love on a pedestal (pedestal)
Whatever you want I'ma get it for you (get it for you)
Hop in the whip, we can go skrrt
Show you the city that made me like this
Ooh, ooh, ooh, made me like this
Ooh, ooh, ooh, made me who I am
Say, ooh, ooh, ooh, 24th street
Ooh, ooh, ooh, made me who I am
See, your mom told you about this side
It can get ugly
I'm just a boy from the east side
Do you love me?
Your mom told you about this side
It can get ugly
I'm just a boy from the east side, oh, no
I don't know if it was fireworks or gunshots
But the birds is in the air (oh, won't let you go-go-go)
So don't come over here (won't let you, oh, I won't let you go)
Hit me up and let me know you're safe and be safe
Why I always gotta call you a million times
'Fore you call me back, son?
Anyway, call me back, I love you, bye (won't let you go baby, yeah)
Oh, won't let you go, go, go
Won't let you go, go, go
Go, oh, ooh
Pray and live your life, pray and live your life
Pray and live your life
Pray and live your life, pray and live your life
Pray and live your life
Pray and live your life, pray and live your life
Pray and live your life

This is the man who got me to love music and all the other artist who do r and b
When's the tour Giveon, please? We are all right here waiting, very much impatiently (look what you do to us), for your next move. Much love 🖤
I love how his style is old and the vibe is old. I love the feels and the music and the visuals.
Body language in this is EVERYTHING! He got it
Woooow. This is the first time I hear his voice, and Im stunned !! This id talent ! This is music !!

You are up? Great music. no riff raff. True clean talent. 👌 PEACHES 💛 JAMAICA HARLEM 💛
Man has beautiful vocals. He’s made it even better.
His voice gives me goosebumps 😭🤧
This guy is a breath of fresh air. Ep was cold👌🏾
get this guy a grammy :’)
Frl!!
Who is this B E A U T I F U L man?!! This voice!! I’m hooked! 😍
Love the tone of his voice... I originally herd him on IG (makeup tutorial) and thought it was chopped or slowed. Now that I know..babyyy 😩🤯
Did not know he is from my hometown Long Beach, glad to see him reppin the LBC, especially the eastside 🙌👏💪💰
My neighbors must hate that I replay this 100 times a day 😂
the tone of his voice is EVERYTHING! if I ever pursue music I’d love to make music with him
Slowly becoming my favorite singer...
His gesture when he says 'skrr' is so satisfying
This finna bang on Tiny Desk🔥
Best version of this song. 🔥
Back in 2024 for this
I'm in love with the Ep i listen to it everyday... No lie
I swear most of his songs fill my playlist like a lot
Him and Shiloh Dynasty - would break the industry!!! 😍😍😍
