"Shooter" reminds me so much of something Childish would go hard af on, especially with those early Childish analogies. So fucking good, but damn I wish we could've gotten this colab. Need that shit like a Kendrick/Cole album 😫😫😫
I can just imagine Jefferson saying: "do you remember Lafayette?" And Hamilton says "Lafayette is a smart man." Then Jefferson pulls his hair into a pony tail and Hamilton is like WHEEZE
A civics lesson from a slaver? Hey neighbor - your debts are paid 'cuz you don't pay for labor. "We plant seeds in the South, we create." Yeah, keep ranting. We know who's REALLY doing the planting.
The song is about rapper stereotypes and he has this big existential crisis/break down and is swarmed with thoughts and emotions about his career and defines him as a rapper. It’s actually really deep and meaningful.
it is litterly the opposite to me cause, like him, I was poor in a ghetto city so the clock drives labor and stress into me, while the anxiety attack in the elevator is well, something I used to experience a lot.
I wish people wouldn't mention Hamilton. Yes, I found Daveed Diggs through Hamilton. However, his life and his whole career does not revolve around that one musical. This has nothing to do with Hamilton, and is actually a very meaningful song, and it sucks that people are commenting jokes from something else that he was involved in which has nothing to do with his own personal music
hobhamwich But his music has nothing to do with Hamilton. Just because he was in the play doesn't mean you should associate it with his completely separate rap career.
DAVEED. You are one of my largest inspirations. You are an amazing artists and you have astonishing rap skills. Especially you voice changes in Hamilton from Lafayette to Jefferson. You are one of my biggest insparations. I hope that some day I get to see you in Hamilton. Because "the Clinton school for writers and artists" which I my school has been applying for months. I am in the middle school division, so I don't know if we are aloud to see it. But seeing the musical would probably bring me to tears with joy
EriannaLuvsYou Hello there. Petrichor -Well, I just went to see a musical, and that made me happy. However, the girl sitting in front of me also happened to be someone that I care for very deeply, and seeing her for the first time in so long was really overwhelming. So… somewhere in the middle of extreme excitement and severe depression.- I'm fine for the most part.
Finally A real fucking rap song! I dont know where you came from but I'm on board. Love the beat The lyrics the feeling. A fucking subject and predicit! simple, complex, to the the point and hard! I can think , rock dance to it. It has it all. Not the jsut some mindlessKMEL 106.9 BAYAREA bullshit played in the comercial, the set , and in the mix 19 times a day. WOOOOOOOO ! i will take a breath now just to say thank you! can't wait for your new light to shine in the darkness . Later MANNN
can y'all stop referring to Daveed as Jefferson or making comparisons between the two of them. Daveed is his own man and has his own career. He had this solo career before Hamilton so can you just shut up.
I feel like this just had to be sad: Stop commenting about Hamilton! I love the show and all, but this is Daveed's song, and not just something for you to make Hamilton references about.
I love Hamilton as much as the next guy, to say the absolute least, and it's true that I discovered Daveed through Hamilton, but Daveed's career away from Lin is just as good and deserves just as much respect. It does make me sad that Daveed puts so much work into his projects, and creates such an incredible product, and all people care about is that they finally figured out what Jefferson was doing in France.

I wish people would stop limiting Daveed Diggs to his work in Hamilton, yeah , he was AMAZING as Lafayette and Jefferson but he isn't those people, not in his own art. Can we just appreciate Daveed Diggs for being Daveed Diggs?
Josh Dun's Nose I should be able to like this comment more than once. He's so damn talented! He's done more than that show (which I also enjoy) and deserves to be recognised as such.
Lin: so what experience do you have with music Daveed: umm... Lin: should we do a background check Daveed: raps guns and ships Lin: I see that won’t be necessary
OKAY I LOVE HAMILTON AND ALL BUT HONESTLY DAVEED IM A BIG FAN OF RAP AND I LISTEN TO THIS ON REPEAT MY DUDE, YOU HONESTLY ARE SUCH A GOOD ARTIST AND DESERVE TO BE RECOGNIZED MORE THAN JUST HAMILTON
DAVEED!!!!! *with his hair up and in a suit* and I'm just 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 He's so *TALENTED* as well. Everything I watch of his I'm just....*overwhelmed* by his talent.
A genius (plural genii or geniuses, adjective ingenious) is a person, a body of work, or a singular achievement of surpassing excellence aka Daveed. this confirms what i've known since we met in '00 coming through those van wickle gates. great artistic video bro
Daveed, that was a real decent rap song. Welcome to the present, it's filled Kanye West now. Would you like to join them, or stay a fellow of the Hamilton Association......Colorado XD
If we assume the Internet, you will get a new line of rappers, I hope you get it! If you go Jefferson or Lafayette, the world will get happiness, would you rather in get the opposite?
Saw Daveed in Hamilton! Amazing!! Love this! "“I’ll see all ya’ll rappers and politicians in hell”@DaveedDiggs so I guess you REALLY want 2b in the VIP section now? #HAMILTONpublic 😉
WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE ME WITH YOU?!?!?!?!? I LOST THE FRICKIN' HAMILTON LOTTO ON LIN, LESLIE, AND PIPPA'S LAST DAY DOING IT, I CRIED SOOOO HARD INTERNALLY, then I saw Les Mis, and cried even harder
Okay was I supposed to think he was making drugs and then it became records? Kinda reminds me of the short cartoon before Moana, but that might be because I just saw it today.
"Fuck! I was fine until I started thinking."

Daveed: *is portraying a rapping version of Thomas Jefferson*
oof
Gotta make that money
I feel like he hated being on Hamilton he only did it for money
@@kristinaboyette9869 no way, Hamilton wasn’t worth any money when he was cast
@@kristinaboyette9869 EXUSE MOI?
FIRST OF ALL
HES AMERICAS FAVORITE FIGHTING FRENCHMAN
Thank you and goodbye
okay honestly Daveed would be really good in a movie about a depressed guy, he's such an incredible actor
When he was in Wonder months ago
notharmonious yes I love that idea 💡
Daveed would be good in a movie about literally anything
If there was a movie about a depressed guy I’d audition as the lead 🥲
I'm from the future here to say that Daveed was insanely good in Blindspotting
Jefferson was doing some weird shit in France.
im pissING myself
HE TIED HIS HAIR UP IN THE BEGINNING AND I SCREAMED LAFAYETTE
I can just imagine Jefferson saying: "do you remember Lafayette?" And Hamilton says "Lafayette is a smart man." Then Jefferson pulls his hair into a pony tail and Hamilton is like WHEEZE
This made me die. I'm dead.
Kyle Mikesell "gettin high with the french"
I love how the alarm is the same as the one they sample in "get up" on their clipping album.
The bbq Tongs seem like a reference to clipping summertime too
that is just the demon of an alarm clock made of stress and work
Daveed Diggs; It's all in the water now...
Kendrick Lamar: Something's in the water...
ZiP yeah daveed about to snatch his weave
dont kill me
Katy Perry: there must be something in the water
Clarence Clarity: before I get out, I'll put cancer in the water

1:06, wuh? Lafayette when did you get here?
+Music&Makeup I know right i love lafayette
He was Lafayette and Jefferson. His name is David (Daveed) diggs. He is a rap artist
+layla Williams I think they know and they were just joking....
+layla Williams I think it's the fact that me had his hair up like he has it when he plays Lafayette
Music&Makeup exactly what I thought!!!
That moment when you're jamming to Daveed and then the message of the song hits you.
The song is about rapper stereotypes and he has this big existential crisis/break down and is swarmed with thoughts and emotions about his career and defines him as a rapper. It’s actually really deep and meaningful.
i came here for daveed and stayed for the music
This is really calming to me for some reason.
it is litterly the opposite to me cause, like him, I was poor in a ghetto city so the clock drives labor and stress into me, while the anxiety attack in the elevator is well, something I used to experience a lot.
I wish people wouldn't mention Hamilton. Yes, I found Daveed Diggs through Hamilton. However, his life and his whole career does not revolve around that one musical. This has nothing to do with Hamilton, and is actually a very meaningful song, and it sucks that people are commenting jokes from something else that he was involved in which has nothing to do with his own personal music
We Were Gifted With Thought He just won a Tony. He will forever be known as a Tony Award winner for Hamilton. He probably has no problem with that.
hobhamwich But his music has nothing to do with Hamilton. Just because he was in the play doesn't mean you should associate it with his completely separate rap career.

agree.
Daveed Diggs is actually my favorite person
guys please. I'm sure he wants a career outside of Hamilton. try to enjoy him for him maybe ?
amen

A m e n.
I'm enjoying him, but what if I met him through Hamilton and that's why I relate him to it? It doesn't harm anyone.
no one can take you seriously
your icon is a youtuber
Lin: so what experience do you have with music
Daveed: umm...
Lin: should we do a background check
Daveed: raps guns and ships
Lin: I see that won’t be necessary
I love this song... please put this on iTunes... it's just so perfect
This is my fav daveed song by far.
haha that's exactly the same alarm tone from the song "Get Up" he did with clipping.
lol was just scrolling down to say this
My people are in the chat.
This was 7 years ago and he looks the same
DOES THIS MAN AGE?!
And he still didnt change a single bit

Lafayette's a smart man he'll be _fine._
*Meanwhile in this elevator.*

Oh my goodness, I love Daveed so much.
this song and video totally reminds me of breaking bad
might 4 years late, because i just watched Hamilton. Daveed you kill it! Hello from the other of the world
When the alarm clock went off I kind of thought he was about to start rapping Get Up.
wtf this was 11 years ago, and the quality is clearer than glass-
Did the 2015 BET awards bring anyone else here, or just me?
me! hahaha
I'm on a Daveed binge now and it's going GREAT
I Digg this 😏
Nobody has mentioned that dAVEED LOOKED SO CUTE WHEN HE WAS 7 YEARS YOUNGER he's so smol

just to say. I appreciate daveeds songs and his role in Hamilton but I like to focus more on his songs
He's so beautiful omg
He did some weird shit in france
