He did and channels like yours and his really help us to make that possible. The world needs more gentleman like yourselves and the greatest imbalance is lack thereof. Much respect to you king✊🏾
Yo, I saw this clown Precision Striking at a Little Caesars in Orlando and said I seen him on TH-cam. He looked like he seen a ghost and said he doesn’t do TH-cam videos. What a clown. Probably thought I was gonna ask him to box 🤣😂🤣
I miss kevin. He was a different brand of a black male. Have never heard or seen anyone like him before and it's gonna be a long time before we see another kevin. Rip kevin. Your name and legacy are eternal.
As a man spending 5 yrs in Federal Prison and being apart of an organization for 11yrs I moved away because I’m a firm believer in you are who you surround yourself with. I literally moved to a brand new state and rebranded myself and now have a wife and kid’s and love my life. It’s true rebrand yourself and change for the better.
Hold ya head G. When you touch down, be for real about the path you walk. I coulda done fed time if things went differently in my early 20s as I was wreckless & operated in destructive energy. Be accountable to yourself for yourself & design your future. Invision it & let nothing hold you from building it.
I am a female reinventing herself. I lost 80lbs, carefully watch what I eat, I threw away almost my entire waldrobe and went shopping with a new style with high quality stuff. I only eat off high quality high end dishes and eat only high quality food. I am a minimalist but also take really good card of myself now. I invest in myself and know my worth.
Good for you sister. KS offered women tough love…something a lot of women don’t understand because they didn’t have a father…telling you what feels good is not gonna change your life…with discomfort comes growth
I did a terrible disservice to myself for judging this man. I thought his advice wasn’t for me until I went through serious heartbreak and had to revaluate myself and my life. I believe now, I am on the right track.
This is even for married men. The truth is that married men get too comfortable and don’t present their best self, even to themselves. As a result, they can become unattractive to their spouses, and the spark goes for the wife. If he reinvents himself, she will take a different look at him, not taking him for granted anymore, not silently badmouthing him because of her continued (and met) low expectations of him. She will be surprised the day he suddenly emerges with a good looking suit that she didn’t buy, or begin going to the gym, taking care of his body and diet, and all that goes with it. She will suddenly be asking if he has a woman on the side. I encourage even married men to listen to this advice…I know I am.
I found out about this dude like a year ago and, as a white 31 year old guy fresh out of the penitentiary with no direction or hope, he really did help me push my life in a better direction. Now I'm thriving and it's definitely due in part to this man
Doing that now.. in monk mode. Losing weight, making mad bread, and avoiding things that waste time. People have been accusing me of being “brand new”. All I do is nod my head and keep it moving
I had an elderly Arabic Woman open a door for me once. I said: “I am supposed to open the door for you.” She said “I knew you were a gentleman.” I was wearing a suit.

@@Tina-vo3hm It's been over 2 weeks and y'all still losing sleep over how KS passed? Seems like y'all lowkey have more love and admiration for him then his own supporters did🤦♂️🤷♂️
This year I've been making smalls steps to reinvent myself; working on my credit, saving money, cut out negative influences, having more confidence, planning to get on diet plan, slowly switch up my attire and get knowledge from brothers like Kevin.
Congrats Nate. I think one major component of reinventing yourself is to start living a purpose driven life. Get a planner and have a written plan for every day. Have budget and have a written plan for your money. Do the same for you eating habits. It takes time to get it working for you but, you will be suprised at the incremental improvements that you can make once commit your plans to writing.
My three top videos are this one, Embrace Being Arrogant and Rank Yourself What To Do When You Are Behind In Life. Rest In Power Godfather You Will Definitely Be Missed
I started at 412 lbs in December of last year and taday im at 348lbs bacause you helped me realize that i can be better. I wished i discovered you sooner. Thank you.
I just started listening to him for the last 2 months and it still feels like I lost a family member, that's how hard his message resonated with me RIP Godfather
He talks about health, it baffles me that he had an underlying heart problem. I think its BS. I truly believe it was the shot or someone set him up. Unless the Red Bulls caught up with him.
@@yusefimmanuel6377 he had suffered from severe cancer and the treatment is know to ravage the body.. his cancer was serious as well and they removed a tumour from His chest. My father is a cancer survivor and once he got treatment he developed heart problems too
Me too I just found The Godfather a lil over a month ago and would listen to him non stop while at work watching him when he passed that was crazy to think about
I love Kevin's video, just what I needed at this time in my life! I was married with children, then I "hit rock bottom" after a divorce. Honestly I have not "thrived" for 10 years..My family was my reason for living. Then she filed for divorce, Not going to lie I was devastated.. I did not see that coming.. 2023 is my year for "CHANGE" ...THANK YOU Kevin.. I can "reinvent myself" , I can rise from the ashes just like a Phoenix..
You've got it bro. Remeber why your doing something and keep that feeling in your heart. There will be days you want to quit and days where you can't find the effort. Remeber you reasons. I know you will bounce back. Best of luck brother. Please put an update up so we can support you.
He has an important message for everyone not just black men or women, I'm a white 58 year old British woman and he has helped me reevaluate too.. he will be missed rest in peace Kevin
I agree, almost 65 *white Minnesotan* here. We all are surrounded by people who need his perspective. Heck, he's even helped me be better in my marriage of 42 years. What a loss that he's gone. What a gain that he was ever here to teach us. 💞
I am a woman who put down my boxing gloves and started to really listen. I have become more fit, feminine, beautiful, cooperative and inspirational. I am studying to be a feminity Coach and I have become engaged to a great man. I didn't agree with everything he said or every delivery but I needed someone to tell me the undiluted truth. No more sugar-coating. I did (and am doing) the Work. Thank you Kevin. Rest In Power Sir. Salute. 💙
Thank you for listening Queen # Respect because even though some women didn’t like his delivery which I agree at times could be brutal it took that to get the conversation started.
“You can reinvent yourself” this is the phrase and video that was most impactful mentally. Now that Kevin has transitioned, we gotta show his efforts to teach us didn’t go to waste.
Mr Samuels is so on point 100%. Right up to my 40s I use to wear trainers all the time, going on a night out dressed with my shirt hanging out and thought I looked the business, one brother told me I looked messy for the physique I have, he introduced me to a stylist, my life changed from that point on, Trevor the stylist told me, wherever you go you be the best dressed man in the building, so said so i done. I dress in suits, blazers, double breasted blazers, roll necks, trousers shirts most of the time I tweak my clothes at my tailors, fit is king, and that's how i feel when i dress...... The king. All on a budget.
Joined when the man had just 40k subscribers. What a ride it was seeing where he came from to seeing where he reached. It was truly an honor. You had the sense that you were part of something that will be remembered long after we’re all gone.
I came around at 60K. And honestly , its the most heartfelt journey watching kevin flourish into what he became. It was a once in a generation type of impact
Facts, same, the ride was beautiful to be experience and be a part of. Those of us that get need to use the fruit of his messages, grow and pass the knowledge forward with others willing to take it in.
Don't be your OWN worst critic. Anything that you don't like, you have the ability to CHANGE it. Anything that's viewed as having value and being worthy is taken care of. Look at yourself as being valuable and worthy to take care of yourself!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!! MY MANTRAS LIFE LESSONS FROM A REAL DIAMOND 💎 There's a REASON WHY this video was in my Playlist. I will keep his legacy going. As I have been a melanated woman pouring into the community and overstand how everyone doesn't value that.
Even on February 26th, 2023 this man’s message still has the capacity to inflict reflection and positive change. This will live on for much longer than any of us, and for that I’m grateful. Thank you Kevin for truly giving your all to help your fellow man. Rest in power, sir.
Best way to start, move to a different state. Don't just move to a different town, or city, separate yourself by at least one full state from your current state. It's like sky diving, scary AF at first, but my oh my, it's one the most freeing things you'll ever do. Move, stay off social media and NEVER look back. Let's get it! ✊🏾
@Millionaire Miggs I think you are both right. But if a person is going to continue to still do the same old, tired or stupid things they've always done, then all they did was move to another place to make the same mistakes.
Just got recommended this video after his unfortunate passing . May he rest in peace . He was one of those few men who told the world the ugly truth they needed to hear and didn't give a damn about what they thought of him . Godfather has given his wisdom before passing, let's honour his memory by being the best self we could be . Don't let the "woke" or "intellectuals" tell you what's right and wrong . Make your own future so that the future generation could learn from your past. Rest in Peace Godfather🙏
This came into my recommendations and I'm glad I watched, very powerful truth. I went through a divorce and took 5 years to rebuild what I lost. 2 years ago decided to stop feeling sorry for myself and make a change. Stopped drinking and smoking, started working out and slowly replaced my entire wardrobe with higher quality fabrics and pieces. One of the best things I did was started to take everything to a tailor to get it adjusted to fit my body correctly. Now as you say, I have ppl showing me respect they never did before in public situations and the ladies have taken notice as well. At 47 years old, I'm in a personal renaissance and on my path to make myself the best version I can be. Whatever motivation it takes, do it fellas. You only have one life, make the change today.
@@hoodatheist5549 had to hit rock bottom. I was at a 4th of July party with friends and had almost finished a handle by myself. Buddies drove me home and I got sick in my own car and when I made it upstairs, I fell into bed and broke one of the corners of the foot board completely off before I passed out. Woke up the next day and said "Okay, I never wanna do this again." That was the last time I've had alcohol. The smoking took a little longer but I just made up my mind one day that I wasn't gonna buy it again. Can't change the past but I wish I would've stopped sooner.
Reading your comment is really what I needed. 7 years older, similar circumstances as far as being in limbo after a 25 year marriage. I wasted 5 years sitting idle. That’s 5 years that can’t be replaced. I’m happy for your progress, and thankful for your inspirational story.
Thank you Tim. It's okay that you had to take the 5 years to get back to where you were before. Just remember that when you wake up tomorrow morning you are a new man and all that is in your past. We are in charge of our lives and our happiness. The future is up to us. I truly wish nothing but the best for you from this day forward.
This might be his best video. Years before he blew up. Incredibly fun to watch his success. As a fan, I feel robbed that we wont be able to see what he was going to build. Peace to his family, RIP Kevin.
My Heart Is Heavy!!!, This Is How i Discovered Kevin!!!, My Head Was So Low That Day!!, He Uplifted My Spirit And I Followed His Message Every Since, These Are Nothing But Gems!! He Really Hand A Heart For Men Improving Themselves, This Is Nothing But Instruction And Positivity!!!. GOD SPEED KEVIN...
Much love Kevin. I had no father figure growing up. And I have been figuring out life alone guessing it. You got me back into reality to reinvent myself at 31 years old. I have an accounting degree and listening to you made me decide to get my CPA. I will get it by 34. I have no kids. Last year I had a mental breakdown with depression and anxiety. Now I’m going back to work. Thanks for your dedication to inventing yourself so we can learn from you first hand.
This idea of one reinventing themselves has popped up on my timeline 3 places, im stumbled upon this video but I listened all the way thru. I can honestly say it has changed my life. Your gone my man but thank you for the value you have brought.
Rest In Peace God Father. Saddens me that I just came across your pages but I’m happy I caught your last live . I will use your words in my everyday life and I will reinvent my image of me thanks to you. HVM is now how I live my life. So thank you again Kevin.
I miss you Kevin 😢 you are one of the reasons I changed my life around thanks for everything you showed me how to be a man ❤ rip mr Kevin I hope your watching over me from heaven.
This man legacy will live on like Patrice O'Neal those types of people leave a lasting impact and Kevin Samuel has shown black men we can control our image.
Yes indeed!!! I'm currently in the process of reinvention and I'm loving it. I cut off toxic ppl, I eat better, I only talk to family but once a month with the exception of my kids and my parents.
He is so right. I reinvented myself and started dressing for the job I wanted and not the job I had. God blessed me and allowed me to get promoted into the position I currently have.
FACTS!!! You sometimes have to move away from "home" in order to reinvent yourself. Being in my hometown was a comfort zone....way too damn comfortable!! Moved to LA and lost 152lbs!! Started working in the field I paid 85k to be degreed in, and have found that the world is completely different outside of St. Louis Missouri.....
My mom moved from St. Louis to Los Angeles back in the late 80s and she always said it was the best thing she ever did! Completely different way of life
Great video!!! “Men take care of what we value.” So true, but only when we value ourselves will our lives really take off. Keep up the great inspiration.
I am a Hispanic male but man I get a lot of great points and content from this man! As a minority myself that was raised by a single mother with no father in my life, he speaks a lot of truth to males in general! Definitely lost a good man too soon! RIP 🙏 your legacy will definitely live on for years to come!!!
Absolutely devastating loss we truly lose the best people too soon. Such a great man. This hit me harder than it probably should have but I genuinely love his content. Rest In Peace Kevin
A King that came out of nowhere . That took us thru Covid and gave some of us men a new and different conversation. Kevin gave the black family the spark now it is on us. Thank You Mr Samuel’s RIP. You are blessed.
Thank you Kevin. You saved so many souls in more than one way. Thank goodness you had the foresight to not take down the videos of your journey. You really really cared for people becoming the BEST VERSION of themselves.
I keep saying this and I will say it again.. I wish I had found the Godfather 20 years ago but thank Christ Almighty I have found him and his wisdom and his podcast and his videos even at this stage in my life! He has already been a tremendous blessing and his messages already taking hold and I am seeing a difference
Even in death his message is getting out there and even a 54 year old man can benefit from his advice. In just watching a few of his videos I find myself sorry someone I did not know even existed died. His message was not bashing black women or men but trying to get them to see we need each other and to be realistic with the goals you can definitely achieve.
He was 53. Watch the video and he says at the beginning he was born in 1969. So was I. And I was born on January 2nd and I'm 53 and will be 53 until Jan 2nd 2023 so even if he was born on New Year's day in 1969 he wouldn't be 54 until 2023. Everyone got his age wrong for some reason. Maybe it was reported wrong when he passed 🤔
Stealing someone else's message word for word and calling it his own is really something. This video was it after he asked a certain someone to be his stylists consultant. Facts here
By telling black women that's she's undeserving of love because she's built like a line-backer, over 40 and isnt built like a skinny 22 year old virgin? Are yal mentally unstable??
This is exactly what I want to do but didn’t know how thank you for this content. I’m a beautiful women but don’t carry myself or dress apart. I put off doing a lot of things that could of made me level up. I have been afraid to move for years. I recently travelled and now I feel that I’m ready to make that step.
Owning your weaknesses and they can become your super power. Transmutation, energy is energy. Negative or positive is only determined by your perspective.
THIS MAN WOKE ME UP. NOW. I READ MORE. I EDUCATE MY SELF IN MANY AREAS OF INTEREST TO GROW AS A PERSON. THERE IS NO ONE TO BLAME.....JUST RESPONSIBLES. I TOOK MY LIFE SERIOUSLY. I REFUSE TO WASTE MY TIME IN FRAGILE SUPERFICIAL WOMEN. LOVE YOURSELF.
As I sit in a bank to handle some buisness. I truly see the difference of respect and attentiveness that I'm shown by dressing well, smelling great and confidence up doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you KS for shining a light on appearance. 11-L.O.V.E!
The coolest thing is that Kevin reinvented himself after this video to be one of the most prominent voices for men. He practices what he preaches.
He did and channels like yours and his really help us to make that possible. The world needs more gentleman like yourselves and the greatest imbalance is lack thereof. Much respect to you king✊🏾

Right up to my 40s I use to wear trainers all the time, going on a night out dressed with my shirt hanging out and thought I looked the business, one brother told me I looked messy for the physique I have, he introduced me to a stylist, my life changed from that point on, Trevor the stylist told me, wherever you go you be the best dressed man in the building, so said so i done. I dress in suits, blazers, double breasted blazers, roll necks, trousers shirts most of the time I tweak my clothes at my tailors, fit is king, and that's how i feel when i dress...... The king. All on a budget.
Joined when the man had just 40k subscribers. What a ride it was seeing where he came from to seeing where he reached. It was truly an honor. You had the sense that you were part of something that will be remembered long after we’re all gone.
I came around at 60K. And honestly , its the most heartfelt journey watching kevin flourish into what he became. It was a once in a generation type of impact
@@Sweetscoobie lucky that certainly must’ve been an experience
Facts, same, the ride was beautiful to be experience and be a part of. Those of us that get need to use the fruit of his messages, grow and pass the knowledge forward with others willing to take it in.
What a ride
i'm going to miss his voice and soul. felt like a uncle in my life. straightforward tone and stern attitude. like denzel but for ur
relationships
Don't be your OWN worst critic. Anything that you don't like, you have the ability to CHANGE it. Anything that's viewed as having value and being worthy is taken care of.
Look at yourself as being valuable and worthy to take care of yourself!!!!
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

LIFE LESSONS FROM A REAL DIAMOND 💎
There's a REASON WHY this video was in my Playlist. I will keep his legacy going. As I have been a melanated woman pouring into the community and overstand how everyone doesn't value that.
Lets do it💪
Exactly. Fail then we try again. Its that simple. Fail then we try again
Even on February 26th, 2023 this man’s message still has the capacity to inflict reflection and positive change. This will live on for much longer than any of us, and for that I’m grateful. Thank you Kevin for truly giving your all to help your fellow man. Rest in power, sir.
Best way to start, move to a different state. Don't just move to a different town, or city, separate yourself by at least one full state from your current state. It's like sky diving, scary AF at first, but my oh my, it's one the most freeing things you'll ever do. Move, stay off social media and NEVER look back. Let's get it! ✊🏾
Don't wish to be in another place.
Wish to be a different person.

Until you change the STATE of mind .. it will not matter what state we move to..
@Millionaire Miggs I think you are both right. But if a person is going to continue to still do the same old, tired or stupid things they've always done, then all they did was move to another place to make the same mistakes.
This is a major fact. I did this in 2019 and the past two years have been incredible.
Planning on moving to AZ from Los Angeles, I'm hyped!

Just got recommended this video after his unfortunate passing . May he rest in peace . He was one of those few men who told the world the ugly truth they needed to hear and didn't give a damn about what they thought of him . Godfather has given his wisdom before passing, let's honour his memory by being the best self we could be . Don't let the "woke" or "intellectuals" tell you what's right and wrong . Make your own future so that the future generation could learn from your past. Rest in Peace Godfather🙏
He's the Uncle we loved but feared because he never lied about anything.
Changed my life forever, rest in peace KS🙏🏾🕊️
This came into my recommendations and I'm glad I watched, very powerful truth. I went through a divorce and took 5 years to rebuild what I lost. 2 years ago decided to stop feeling sorry for myself and make a change. Stopped drinking and smoking, started working out and slowly replaced my entire wardrobe with higher quality fabrics and pieces. One of the best things I did was started to take everything to a tailor to get it adjusted to fit my body correctly. Now as you say, I have ppl showing me respect they never did before in public situations and the ladies have taken notice as well. At 47 years old, I'm in a personal renaissance and on my path to make myself the best version I can be. Whatever motivation it takes, do it fellas. You only have one life, make the change today.
that is so dope, hows did you stop drinking and smoking?
@@hoodatheist5549 had to hit rock bottom. I was at a 4th of July party with friends and had almost finished a handle by myself. Buddies drove me home and I got sick in my own car and when I made it upstairs, I fell into bed and broke one of the corners of the foot board completely off before I passed out. Woke up the next day and said "Okay, I never wanna do this again." That was the last time I've had alcohol. The smoking took a little longer but I just made up my mind one day that I wasn't gonna buy it again. Can't change the past but I wish I would've stopped sooner.
Reading your comment is really what I needed. 7 years older, similar circumstances as far as being in limbo after a 25 year marriage.
I wasted 5 years sitting idle. That’s 5 years that can’t be replaced.
I’m happy for your progress, and thankful for your inspirational story.
Thank you Tim. It's okay that you had to take the 5 years to get back to where you were before. Just remember that when you wake up tomorrow morning you are a new man and all that is in your past. We are in charge of our lives and our happiness. The future is up to us. I truly wish nothing but the best for you from this day forward.
This might be his best video.
Years before he blew up.
Incredibly fun to watch his success.
As a fan, I feel robbed that we wont be able to see what he was going to build.
Peace to his family, RIP Kevin.
COVID-19 lockdown is a great opportunity to reinvent yourself. Excellent video, thank you for sharing your experiences.
Factz no excuses
We needed you!😭
Rest
In
Power
💔🖤💚
People will go back in your catalog and realize you were ahead of your time and appreciate the work you put in. Rest In Peace Mr. Samuels
This is the video. This started my journey . RIP Godfather.
My Heart Is Heavy!!!, This Is How i Discovered Kevin!!!, My Head Was So Low That Day!!, He Uplifted My Spirit And I Followed His Message Every Since, These Are Nothing But Gems!! He Really Hand A Heart For Men Improving Themselves, This Is Nothing But Instruction And Positivity!!!. GOD SPEED KEVIN...
It still hit different, respectfully r.i.p.
You have be at a certain level of enlightenment to innerstand his consciousness thank you beautiful SOUL ⚖️👁️💚☯️♾️
You're the reason why I'm currently reinventing myself. I'm sad you're gone. RIP King!
We need more men like this telling men how to be men.
This shit hit me hard, i have money but never do anything for myself, i have to go clothes shopping or something.
@@hoodatheist5549 build your wealth invest in assets buy a 2 family duplex rent it out get ya airbnb hustle in
Much love Kevin. I had no father figure growing up. And I have been figuring out life alone guessing it. You got me back into reality to reinvent myself at 31 years old. I have an accounting degree and listening to you made me decide to get my CPA. I will get it by 34. I have no kids. Last year I had a mental breakdown with depression and anxiety. Now I’m going back to work. Thanks for your dedication to inventing yourself so we can learn from you first hand.
karim Karim my man you are going to succeed man and you becoming one of the 1% of man dog , we always are by your side , from copenaghen
Bro
I hope and pray all is well .........Kevin wanted the best for ALL
I pray all is going well. I suffer from depression as well. It can be rough!
,🖤
This video has gotten me out of a very hard time in my life!! Thank you Kevin!
This idea of one reinventing themselves has popped up on my timeline 3 places, im stumbled upon this video but I listened all the way thru. I can honestly say it has changed my life. Your gone my man but thank you for the value you have brought.
I literally cried watching this. You spoke to my soul. Thank you, Kevin.
You never lose, you only learn.
Game is game
Rest In Peace God Father. Saddens me that I just came across your pages but I’m happy I caught your last live . I will use your words in my everyday life and I will reinvent my image of me thanks to you. HVM is now how I live my life. So thank you again Kevin.
I just love how he said I lived in the projects but the projects didn't find me I'll be using THAT thanks Kevin rest in power
I miss you Kevin 😢 you are one of the reasons I changed my life around thanks for everything you showed me how to be a man ❤ rip mr Kevin I hope your watching over me from heaven.
This man legacy will live on like Patrice O'Neal those types of people leave a lasting impact and Kevin Samuel has shown black men we can control our image.
Yes indeed!!! I'm currently in the process of reinvention and I'm loving it. I cut off toxic ppl, I eat better, I only talk to family but once a month with the exception of my kids and my parents.
@Anthony Morrison by the way...it's "YOU'RE"
Interesting 🤔🤔
He is so right. I reinvented myself and started dressing for the job I wanted and not the job I had. God blessed me and allowed me to get promoted into the position I currently have.
R.i.p king salute.... I needed to hear this
We needed more years of this man....🙏🏾 Thankful that we have his videos...
Thanks!
This video proves that he proved and did what he spoke of from 3 years ago...
"I lived in the projects, but the projects didn't define me."
That's some good shit.
7 habits of a highly effective teen had a similar example of that. Kevin is everything that our culture needs man.
FACTS!!! You sometimes have to move away from "home" in order to reinvent yourself. Being in my hometown was a comfort zone....way too damn comfortable!! Moved to LA and lost 152lbs!! Started working in the field I paid 85k to be degreed in, and have found that the world is completely different outside of St. Louis Missouri.....
My mom moved from St. Louis to Los Angeles back in the late 80s and she always said it was the best thing she ever did! Completely different way of life
this is what us men of all ages but especially the younger generation such as myself need to hear!!! Much respect
You got it.
Rest In Peace your gone but your work still helping ppl like me who only just finding you. Nothing like a fearless man
RIP Brother. I learned a lot from you. You will be missed.
Great video!!! “Men take care of what we value.” So true, but only when we value ourselves will our lives really take off. Keep up the great inspiration.
I miss him so much. Rest in power and thank you for your service
I am a Hispanic male but man I get a lot of great points and content from this man! As a minority myself that was raised by a single mother with no father in my life, he speaks a lot of truth to males in general! Definitely lost a good man too soon! RIP 🙏 your legacy will definitely live on for years to come!!!
How is having a single mother a minority thing? Lol you already thinking wrong
@@donaldcooper3156he’s talking about being Hispanic my boy.
@@donaldcooper3156ur thinking wrong
One of the classiest guys I've ever looked up to for guidance. Thank you for giving us guidance brother. I know my worth because of you. SIP.
thanks for this. i struggle from mental health issues, and low self confidence. trying to get the help i need and reinvent myself
Same here man
Good luck brothers. I wish you nothing but successes.
Wishing you all well brothers
Start working out trust me it will change your whole life. Seven years medicine free.
@@latoyathornton1871 well said.... A nice jog or just shooting hoops at the park changes my whole energy level.
Absolutely devastating loss we truly lose the best people too soon. Such a great man. This hit me harder than it probably should have but I genuinely love his content. Rest In Peace Kevin
Thanks Kevin for the image you placed of the black male community online!!
Rest in Power!
The absolute GOD-FATHER, you're still and always will be the G.O.A.T.
America is a very forgiving country. Period.
This video changed my life years ago.. R.I.P
THE GROWTH KEVIN....and you look even better over the years,but the Wisdom has always been there
The amount of knowledge this man has. He legitimately could've been a college professor. Gone way too soon, R.I.P KS.
He was even more valuable than traditional educators, a Life professor 🙏🏽
Had so much knowledge but couldn’t keep a woman down (divorced twice and died alone)
@@Ohno2000 Heal that hurt in your heart sis
He literally died in a room with a woman🙄
A King that came out of nowhere . That took us thru Covid and gave some of us men a new and different conversation. Kevin gave the black family the spark now it is on us. Thank You Mr Samuel’s RIP. You are blessed.
Best advice at the best time. Just these word changed my mentality and my life.
Thanks Kevin its time for me to change and be better a real man and prove my mom and everyone that called me a bum wrong.
R.I.P. you may be gone but your message lives on forever. Agree or disagree you made people think. Thank you
Thank you Kevin. You saved so many souls in more than one way. Thank goodness you had the foresight to not take down the videos of your journey. You really really cared for people becoming the BEST VERSION of themselves.
Yes he did !!
I keep saying this and I will say it again.. I wish I had found the Godfather 20 years ago but thank Christ Almighty I have found him and his wisdom and his podcast and his videos even at this stage in my life! He has already been a tremendous blessing and his messages already taking hold and I am seeing a difference
This is such a powerful build. RIP to this good brother, as I am in a place of reinvention this was perfect to hear.
Indeed I pray for my only son getting out of prison this year to think like you’re teaching
RIP sir. You've provided strength when a lot of us felt we had none. Thank you. You will be missed.
Even in death his message is getting out there and even a 54 year old man can benefit from his advice. In just watching a few of his videos I find myself sorry someone I did not know even existed died. His message was not bashing black women or men but trying to get them to see we need each other and to be realistic with the goals you can definitely achieve.
He was 53. Watch the video and he says at the beginning he was born in 1969. So was I. And I was born on January 2nd and I'm 53 and will be 53 until Jan 2nd 2023 so even if he was born on New Year's day in 1969 he wouldn't be 54 until 2023. Everyone got his age wrong for some reason. Maybe it was reported wrong when he passed 🤔
@@GoGoOpie So a year out so what.
Stealing someone else's message word for word and calling it his own is really something. This video was it after he asked a certain someone to be his stylists consultant. Facts here
@@solomongrundy721shut up lol, it's called giving information to ones who needed. Everyone does not have an original opinion
By telling black women that's she's undeserving of love because she's built like a line-backer, over 40 and isnt built like a skinny 22 year old virgin? Are yal mentally unstable??
Unc Man U helped me so much I changed my whole thought process because of u
This is exactly what I want to do but didn’t know how thank you for this content. I’m a beautiful women but don’t carry myself or dress apart. I put off doing a lot of things that could of made me level up. I have been afraid to move for years. I recently travelled and now I feel that I’m ready to make that step.
Owning your weaknesses and they can become your super power. Transmutation, energy is energy. Negative or positive is only determined by your perspective.
Preach👏🏼
Rest In Peace, so much wisdom. The real ones will ways appreciate you. Thank you. 🙏
THIS MAN WOKE ME UP.
NOW. I READ MORE. I EDUCATE MY SELF IN MANY AREAS OF INTEREST TO GROW AS A PERSON.
THERE IS NO ONE TO BLAME.....JUST RESPONSIBLES.
I TOOK MY LIFE SERIOUSLY. I REFUSE TO WASTE MY TIME IN FRAGILE SUPERFICIAL WOMEN.
LOVE YOURSELF.
I watch this everyday day big bro
I really do appreciate youtube for randomly recommending me these older ks videos… much love
As I sit in a bank to handle some buisness. I truly see the difference of respect and attentiveness that I'm shown by dressing well, smelling great and confidence up doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you KS for shining a light on appearance. 11-L.O.V.E!
