As a coloured rap artist tryna make it in this harsh world we live in....you Jimmy made me believe that it's all possible once it comes from the heart, I see you as the greatest artist SA produced 🔥
I have never been more proud to be a South African. Beautiful music, lyrical genius and a group of local visionaries all on one track making this the African Anthem of 2015! #ProudOfOurRoots
I love this song and now that I've seen the video I love it even more! I am so proud of Jimmy Nevis and the music he makes. This is such a real video, no flashy fake stuff with supermodels. He is such a good role model of someone who followed his dream.
Im not coloured, & didnt grow up in the plain or the flats but im South African, Capetonian!!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!! & I LOVE MY COUNTRY AND MY PEOPLE SO MUCH!!!! MY RAINBOW NATION!!!! ALLES WAT MAL IS!!!! ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES AND PEOPLE IN THE WORLD !!!! SO MUCH DIVERSITY AND BEAUTY UNDER THE AFRICAN SKY!!!!! GODBLESS US ALL!!!! I LOOK FORWARD TO BUILDING A BEAUTIFUL, BRIGHT & O SO COLOURFUL FUTURE FOR ALL MY MA SE KINDERS!!!!! OF ALL COLOURS AND BACKGROUNDS!!!!! INCLUDING MYSELF!!!! "Madiba manufactured, no China in these shoes" AMANDLA AWETHU!!!! ✊✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿🇿🇦
From Zimbabwe, great song. just love the flare you boys bring to the music (Jimmy, Timo ODV, LCNVL etc.) Keep up the good work. I definitely know this is Cape Town, it's so beautiful I was there in April.
Grew up in kewtown athlone. I never saw myself living there forever and happy the day I left but I will never forget my roots!!!! #ProudlyFromKewtown #ThankYouJimmy
Joh!some of the naughtiest and best days of my life i spent at block 30 in Q Town.God is good,the blokke looks way better now,This brought back so much memories.Thanx Team Jimmy #ProudlySouthAfrican
I don’t understand how one experiences a blue Monday in the mist of such a great talent. I’m turning it UP! On a Monday morning with this jam @ the office just for control!
Its ironic that I come across this music video and song when a few hours ago I was at a conference where one session was focused on Coloured Consciousness. A quote by the facilitator: "We are coloured by life, not genetics" and I think this music video represents the colourfulness that we embrace, the traditions that we incorporate in our lives that are deemed 'coloured' attributes. I have to commend Zunaid Green on an amazing video and Jimmy for the colourful, insightful and amazing lyrics
I'm not even from Cape Town and have never actually been there (once when I was very small, too small to actually remember the experience) but even I can see how brilliant this song is so I can't imagine how somebody who actually grew up in Cape Town would feel when watching this video. Good job Jimmy Nevis, good job!
Well done son, take a bow. Cape Flats unite. Grew up and still living in #Steenberg. Ghetto life is tough but unlike anything else. Wouldn't have chosen to grow up any other way.
Amazing song, and the video is the perfect accompaniment. Bravo to all involved in the production, which showcases Athlone in such a vibrant and wonderful way :)
Really awesome job, Athlone as it truly is, but with a GoPro (shocked face) knew they shot awesome clips but didn't know they that awesome, well done guys big up to y'all
I was loosing my mind earlier this afternoon, literally breaking my head over this song, trying to remember anything about it. 🤣 It took me just about 5 hours to find something any search bar understood as relevant.
Really stylish piece of work with the GoPro; amazing shots from eye-level up with the drone! And a beautiful celebration of the people of Athlone - great job Zunaid, Jimmy and the production team *applause*

Well done JN. Love the track and vid. Takes me back to when I frequented Galaxy in "ATL" Time to remix this track, dude. Definitely a Club Killer. Needs a continuous beat. Good Luck - Ash
Who ever disliked the video sure doesn't know what it's like growing up on the Cape Flats. Loved the video. Making something from nothing.
Galaxy is also in there! woop!
Lol and he mentions Bang Bar
Justin Smith when he said that my eyes lit up king
Spent 6 months in that area - love this video.
So very true
Straight Out Of South Africa... Great Job Jimmy!!!
Straight Outta Kewtown
Just randomly remembered this song and came here. nostalgia hits hard

We don't need your sympathy
We're different, and that's OK.
I'm not living in cape town but i am coloured many people say I'm too white to be coloured but this song makes me proud
@@robertodendaal5908 ? I don't understand your comment.
@@shaunonverwacht9626 sorry oom, I read it in a different context, enjoy your day 😁

I'm not even from Cape Town and have never actually been there (once when I was very small, too small to actually remember the experience) but even I can see how brilliant this song is so I can't imagine how somebody who actually grew up in Cape Town would feel when watching this video.
