Some tunes just need re-releasing every so often because of relevance. To me this is a classic and will never get old. The message is deep an the tune overall is big! I miss Dynamite in the game
Yeah apart from Lily Allen no offence to her but her whole music career was an act, just look at her house tour recently but love Amy Winehouse and Ms Dynamite they are the greats!! 👏
This tune just proves the UK was not ready for an artist as talented as you. They didn't deserve you. Bet if you were blonde your career woulda been a different tale. Respect.
I came after reading in Akala a book just now about miss dynamite being his sis! I remember loving this song as a young teen but had no idea the depth of the lyrics interesting to listen back glad i was listening to good tunes back then also
I get tears in my eyes because of songs like this one , because I am proud that there were young female artists like her who cared enough about us kids living in the ghetto around the world....between all the violence crime drugs and hedonism , there were kids like Ms.Dynamite who said it takes more to confuse a girl like me....I hope she is living her best life.
She saw what was coming in the new generation but no one followed suit so now it’s way beyond violent now, we need an artist to stand up send a message to these youngens and tell them to put the gun/knives down and get an education and make a difference that way.
I first heard this banger when I was 11 years old. And it was my favorite songs back in the day. I used to watch the music video on VHS almost everyday. As I got older I stared listening to the lyrics carefully..I found out that this song was ahead of its time. I am 31 now. And I still love this song❤
The swag is so early 2000s. I can’t believe I was 8 when this came out, this was one of my favourite songs at the time along with sweet like chocolate.
I'm hearing this for the first time in 2018!!! This is some hard lyrics. No wonder I've never heard it. Singing against the bling culture that keeps getting blacks killed? This is a big tune!!! Love you Miss Dynamite. The name suits you.
Feel like she’s criminally underrated in comparison to similar artists like Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen, she should be more recognised for how talented she is!
Well yes - my old man gave me a talk back in the 70s when I was a teenager about diamonds, gold and the situation of Africans in the countries where those things are mined. I never forgot that talk, even today at 59 years old I have never bought or worn jewellery with precious stones or metals.
Ahead? Those Africans were dying before she was even born. Centuries and centuries. She was just talking about what was happening at the time and even now. It's contemporary. She wasn't ahead, it's just that the vast majority of ppl were and are blind and don't know enough about current affairs or Africans (continent and diaspora)
@@rufdymond I'm the same. I'm 20. I never had that talk but I just know thing you know - I get a feeling ... like idk but as a kid I just never associated Jewels with the West, I knew there was more to the story somehow and when I found out where they came from I wasn't shocked at all. But yeah I don't want all of that really. 😕
I remember and love this tune back then. Forgotten how dope it was. Ms Dynamite really create a masterpiece and a masterclass on how music should be done with this and she was quite young then. Incredibly positive and still banging. Awesome Ms Dynamite...we need this type of tunes back.
Strong song Powerful message. Ms Dynamite sings,raps,Scots totally polished performance. WTF happened to HIPHOP? I come here often. UK LEDGEND 🇬🇧 F** Dat World wide Heroine, & LEDGEND. Need this style back in 2023 & Onwards!!!!!!!! Gubbzdadon@#288 - themoKingz
Damn, I haven't heard this tune in ages. I was 9 when this came out and I feel blessed to have grown up in this era. Such a cool tune and Ms. Dynamite was my crush growing up.
@@Trudon this way back more than 17 years ago. When Ms Dynamite went to promote her music in America. And it was an interview with 50 cent here in UK. He was asked which British artists he liked and he mentioned Ms Dynamite. He said quite a few positive things about her and her music and that was pretty cool.
I've always loved this song and watched it over and over when it played on the music channels back in the day. Catch it half way and flip to another channel to try and catch it from the beginning. I miss those days.
just listened to this for the first time in, probably 20 years or so? I remembered it but I never really appreciated the lyrics. very meaningful and underrated song.

It's 2024 and I just turned 42 years old. This tune will NEVER get old
I agree 💯
Ms Dynamite was an artist well ahead of her time 🔥

so true 👏
Agreed
21 years later, still a banger. MS DYNAMITE 4ever
Yes❗👍
I miss these kind of songs
Me too
I miss artists like her, Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen, Mystic and so many who spoke truth in their music. The good ole days.
Real british queens 😘
Yeah apart from Lily Allen no offence to her but her whole music career was an act, just look at her house tour recently but love Amy Winehouse and Ms Dynamite they are the greats!! 👏
@@bruv8341lmao Lily Allen 😂
Lilly is racist

I AMMA CHINESE I WIV IN ENGWAND WHEN SONG COME OUT. SONG GOOD. PLAY RADIO. ME LIKE GOOD AJAJAJAJA. no one cares
Man she spoke the truth 🙌🏾👏🏾
More relevant than before if that’s actually possible. This is now a classic
class too, no tits or ass out. what a beautiful women with intelligence
The lyrics! 👏🙌
Who'd have thought these lyrics would still be so relevant 16 years later! Sad...
Indeed
This track is 16 years old and the message is STILL relevant in 2018.
Yep sad times 😕
@@joytandi202 So much more relevant now. The times we see now are dark for so many reasons.
True. So is Lauryn Hill's Doo Wop and that one came 4 years before this one.
Thats true
It just takes more...
This song fits good in 2021! Ms. Dynamite is timeless! A real gem definitely on my top 100 favorite artists.
Tears in my eyes ... so much memories!
Such a great song! 🙌🏾
yes man :(
@@urktklirk9770 lol u know

This tune just proves the UK was not ready for an artist as talented as you. They didn't deserve you. Bet if you were blonde your career woulda been a different tale. Respect.
She had a baby, and came back with a different style of music
She had a baby just when her career was talking off and fkd her life up q
If she was blonde NO ONE would have given her a chance as this is very urban music
100 but shes talking about real shit which regardless if you are white, they wouldnt like it
Totally agree!!! A true voice/ talent/ role model
Throwbacks :) The good old days, loved this tune!
please which kind of music it is ?
Chanti B this kind of music doesn’t usually give me goosebumps
Who's here for 2020 randomly!? 😁
Lock down baby!!
Yep classic tune
real shit
My baby brother is reading Akala's book.. I'm showing him that his siblings was on it as well.. Plus it's a tune.. Bless up
I came after reading in Akala a book just now about miss dynamite being his sis! I remember loving this song as a young teen but had no idea the depth of the lyrics interesting to listen back glad i was listening to good tunes back then also
Her children, if she has any, can be proud.
2019 still listening this tune
Trust me.
Niako Goly
Prove it using mathematics
2o2o listen ..😊

Hardly ANY positive songs come out anymore. This is fiiiiire
Forgot what a banger! Ms. Dynamite needs to come back on the scene!

Man...I had this album. Classic! Listening back to this makes me think Ms Dynamite was like our Lauryn Hill
Very underrated💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😍
She saw what was coming in the new generation but no one followed suit so now it’s way beyond violent now, we need an artist to stand up send a message to these youngens and tell them to put the gun/knives down and get an education and make a difference that way.
Agreed. Kano has started to address it a bit in his new album but there's barely anything out there.
Back in the days I played the hell out of this song and now it's got me pressing that replay button over n over lol Such an awesome song love it..
Masterpiece!!! What a fantastic artist👏👏👏
This song is more relevant now than ever!
Lady ahead of her time.
Miss you, Ms D ❤
What a beautiful song with a fabulous rhythm..
Strong woman music. She was ahead of her time. Dynamite needs reserecting.
Absolutely 👍❗
Her and her brother have always tried to spead a message of awareness and empowerment big up ms dynamite and akala

Ageing like fine wine 🎶👌🍷

This woman is a legend! We need to give her her flowers now.
Don’t get enough recognition for what she done for the music game.
I'm hearing this for the first time in 2018!!! This is some hard lyrics. No wonder I've never heard it. Singing against the bling culture that keeps getting blacks killed? This is a big tune!!! Love you Miss Dynamite. The name suits you.
I remember missy, back in the day, leeds, creations..2002.?. home now, naiirobi... 2020. I miss those days.
A true message with a DOPE delivery and beat........ WATER
Still here. Years later. When I need a pep talk. Thanks Miss Dynamite. ❤️
Still, still.
Me too !
Me three !
Still love this song in 2021... What's she up to now?
back in the dayssss.. we love this song and play it all day long over...over...and over... still like it today😍
One of the few songs that promotes morals! Love the beat as well as the singing and lyrics!
it makes me happy to hear this song, I remember the release in 2002 and I listen to it until now in 2023, 21 years ago
Randomly thought of her and caught even more than I use to. Wild. Much love
Probably one of the most nostalgic videos of all time. The care free days when we’d point out roads from our area that were in the music video
Her and Alicia Keys always reminded me of one another.
TTSantiago821 RIGHT!!!
No way miss D got nothing
On miss k
Facts
You never see them in the same room...coincidence, I think not.
Same. It's the mixed hiphop/R&B/soul tomboyish homegirl who can't really dance but do a cute lil two step thing lol.
This song has such a great message in it
There should be more music like this today.
I never knew the lyrics were so woke up until now. I like how she spoke about racism and slavery
I was stationed in friedberg, Germany when this song came out. This brings back so many memories.
Nazi prison camp?
Feel like she’s criminally underrated in comparison to similar artists like Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen, she should be more recognised for how talented she is!
“Tell me how many African’s died for the baguettes on your Rolex?”
What the movie Blood Diamond was all about.
This song was way ahead of its time..
class too, no tits or ass out. what a beautiful women with intelligence
I love the political reference of it all!
Well yes - my old man gave me a talk back in the 70s when I was a teenager about diamonds, gold and the situation of Africans in the countries where those things are mined. I never forgot that talk, even today at 59 years old I have never bought or worn jewellery with precious stones or metals.

This is what we should be showing our sisters and daughters!
This song is absolute gold ! So talented as a writer and performer. Her message is real !
Classic!!! That was ahead of its time. Lovin ThIs.. “from NOW TIL THE YEAR 3000!!!!”
The lyrics are still relevant today
I remember and love this tune back then. Forgotten how dope it was.
Ms Dynamite really create a masterpiece and a masterclass on how music should be done with this and she was quite young then.
Incredibly positive and still banging. Awesome Ms Dynamite...we need this type of tunes back.

Love UP Ms D's what????
@@simonb2109 what are you talking about tho? 😂
What a tune. And what a message new music could learn a thing or two off this
This was showing up all the time on one of the music channel and it was boring. Now it sounds well ahead of its time.
Damn, I haven't heard this tune in ages. I was 9 when this came out and I feel blessed to have grown up in this era. Such a cool tune and Ms. Dynamite was my crush growing up.
Wow 18 years fantastic times listening to this album
Still listening to this song! After almost 20 years of falling in love with it❤❤❤
Finally! Ms dynamite official videos have been uploaded, hopefully they'll add dy-na-my-tee.
50 cent said she was unique.
When?

Too much souvenir in my days in UK.
Classic
terrible English.

Ms Dynamite a Boss Lady. One of the sickest out of the UK X

Respect to all the women that empower our young girls 💯🙌🏻
Miss Dymanite is the equivalent of Roxanne Shante for me. British legend
Timeless song and still relevant what a talented and beautiful woman but so underrated beautiful message love you
Every time I listen to her judgement days album.....I hear a bit of Amy Winehouse. I sincerely believe Amy was inspired by Ms. Dynamite
I agree, I thought exactly the same.
Totally
Sunnyiced Queen always thinking the same...
Just heard that as I was listening. Mad!
2023… still think she’s a legend ❤
Im from the usa and found her through a craig david playlist. I just found this song today and have it on replay.
