So pleased you guys loved this! I must’ve seen it 100’s of times and still get chills! A wee bit of background on the last verse - this was added for the live performance so isn’t in the original song. Dave’s brother is in prison for murder as part of our joint enterprise law, he didn’t kill anyone but was part of a group that were involved. So the white guy ‘Jack’ that Dave talked about came from a very privileged background, however decided to dedicate his like to helping young guys in prison see that there’s another way and help with rehabilitation. He was close to Dave and his family because of the work with his brother. Jack and Saskia were both killed by a terroist that had been attending an event about rehabilitation in London, he’d just got out of prison. Also, Dave had Jack’s parents at the Brit awards as his guests and they didn’t know he was going to rap about Jack. So moving! If you’d like more info, google London Bridge attack.
The last part when he rapped about ‘Jack Merritt’…Jack was a young man who helped prisoners rehabilitate into society and has helped with Dave’s brother who is doing a life sentence in prison…Jack was unfortunately killed in a terrorist attack on London Bridge which is why Dave put him in this performance. RIP Jack 🙏🏼 Dave-panic attack live performance for bbc sounds should be next up ❤
The last verse was for his friend Jack who was fighting for equality. Also Dave talked about ‘Grenfell victims’ it was a block of flats that burnt down and was designed and built with flammable materials and there was no fire deterrents in the block of flats. Lots of people died and it was a government fuck up as they knew it was built in such a dangerous way. Also he spoke on the ‘wind rush generation’ a lot of black people were working for the British empire in the Caribbean etc on plantations but the British empire allowed them to move here to work around 1948 to 1973 as there was shortage of workers in the U.K. after the war. Then once the population of white working men built up again, we then wrongly deported some of the ‘wind rush generation’ back to the Caribbean and took away there rights and ‘British Citizenship’ Disgraceful
If you want more of Dave rapping with the piano check out 'Panic Attack' live at future festival. If you want storytelling 'lesley'. The one you spotted where he's playing guitar, that's 'in the fire' live at the Brits which is Dave, Fredo, Meekz, Ghetts and Giggs and a fucking choir! ! And it is 🔥🔥🔥
Dave taught himself to play piano, he plays guitar, makes his own beats, makes beats for other artists and is one of the best lyricists of our generation. His talent is insane.
LOWKEY - FIRE IN THE BOOTH 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 11 MINUTES OF NON STOP ONE TAKE ABSOLUTE HARDEST BARS YIU WULL HEAR!!!! ONLY THING THAT SITS NEXT TO THIS AND ONLY THING YOU CAN COMPARE THE LEVELS TO THIS IS BLACK THOUGHTS FKEX FREESTYLE!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥 EPIC! EPIC!! EPIC!!! 💯 THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR ANY TRUE HIP HOP HEAD💯
Dave is the most flexible rapper out there. He can do a song like this with a message and also do a club song on his next track. The guy is the goat. People need to stop comparing him to other artists he’s the goat
With Dave I feel the best way to float in and out of his music would be flipping between his upbeat hits and his deeper more methodical based story telling. Best of best worlds shows why he’s the best in the world
We the global south/muslims, we love the irish people in Ireland. We dont see them as westerners. They are part of our family. The global majority. 🇸🇴🇮🇪
Jack Merritt and the girl shown beside him were social workers helping rehabilitate criminals after jail, he worked with Daves brother apparently. As the news stated - 'Saskia Jones, 23, and Jack Merritt, 25, were killed by convicted terrorist Usman Khan at a Learning Together event at Fishmongers' Hall in London in 2019'. Jacks parents were in the crowd and didnt know dave had this tribute planned.
When he saids about the white dude on the piano JACK. hes talking about someone who helped in the prisons including his own brother but was killed in the qttacks from one man in london where he attacked people ❤
I'm white its not just a colour thing, I don't know fuck all about my family history. No Dad, siblings with different fathers some of us went in care, mother went prison for selling drugs being sent to live with cousins who didn't want us there. DAVE HAD A BETTER UPBRINGING THAN ME... I CAN RELATE.
Unpopular opinion from someone who likes Dave and thinks this performance is profound and amazingly well put together and performed, but amongst some facts and truths this also screams victim mentality and simply can't agree with many parts too. Daves hardships and life have obviously given him this mindset so can't be mad at him for speaking his mind from how he sees things
Fredo - daily duppy 1 and 2 Fredo- independence day freestyle 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Legemdary and some of the hardest things youll hear full stop Classic timeless bars flows and the whole package 🔥
'Lesley' has got to be next. Just stunning storytelling. Love from UK. Just subbed, enjoy your reactions.
Please!!
About time!
If you're gonna learn Dave please go to the beginning. 🙏🏾 His blackbox freestyle, he was only 15. Then his cypher, he was only sixteen.
He's amazing.
@@lrgreen1009 he was 16 btw but for sure fire
