Don't get the 'blue' bit, yeah barca a red and blue and by 'red' colour he's also saying 'read' as past tense of to read, but the blue bit I don't understand - is it to do with Snapchat?
Jazza fair enough, I just feel bad for the dude, every time he does video on a British rapper most of the comments are about how the bars are going over his American head 😭
SE Metro professor X is the character in X-men who’s in a wheelchair but is very smart which is why he says “the back ain’t there but the brain is brilliant” which also means that the woman he’s with doesn’t have a big bum but is “brilliant” at giving head
The song was produced for the Top Boy Selection Album, which is the music written for the Top Boy series. Dave played ‘Modie’ in the series. The song also consists of references to the series, such as ‘I’m a top boy like Sully but darker’ which refers to one of the major characters, Sullivan. Not only did the song bang but so did the series 🔥🔥🔥 defo recommends giving it a watch!
“Left on read/red then blew/blue like Barca” - so he’s ignored them then blew them off, but also red and blue are the classic colours of the Barca football team “Little man wanna jump on FIFA, so I’m close to the sun/son like Icarus” - Icarus was a character in Greek mythology who made wings and flew to the sun 🔥🔥
my brother got a new wristwatch, but don't watch that cause you could get nauseous = patek phillipe nautilus, one of the most sought after watch models right now
“Professor x cos true say the back ain’t there but the brain is brilliant” oh my days, do you understand how hard that is hahahaha. Professor X - wheelchair (broken back/ass) - brain (head/blow/intelligent)
The Fictional Marvel Character “Professor Xavier” needed a Wheelchair 🦽 could this be a play on words - Saying The Girl has no Back meaning her ass is a deadness.. but the Sloppy Toppy is Exceptional. PROFFESOR XAVIER IS EXTREMLY SMART BUT HE HAS NO BACK (SO HE IS IN A WHEEL CHAIR )
dave spat : peng ting still get aired left on read(red) then blue(cuz on whatsapp when you see a message, the tick goes blue) like barca(fc barcelona jersey). WOW!!!
Got some suggestions: - Dave x J Hus - Samantha - Cadet (RIP) ft. Swarmz - Roley - AJ Tracey ft. Mostack - Dinner Guest - Steel Banglez - Fashion week (Couldn't fit the features in the comment)
"Professor X cus true say the back ain't there but the brain is brilliant." Professor X from X men is super smart but paralyzed. He used the words to compare with his girl that has good "brain" (head) but no "back" (bum).
I thought it was him saying he is a genius (brain) but wasn’t getting the support he deserved (back) considering this was when he was pretty small compared to now. I thought that was the second or another meaning as the obvious meaning was exactly what you said.
“Lil man wanna jump on fifa, so I’m close to the sun like icarus” dammm - icarus is a character in greek mythology who's father created two pairs of wings made out of wax and feathers, icarus was warned not to fly too close to the sun but he did and they melted and he drowned in the sea. I never thought a simple play on words would cause so much confusion to you guys as to if it is sun or son, clearly both.
Louis Clarke well there’s 3 out but I’m watching on Netflix and there’s only 1 out. I don’t know if the ones back from 2011 and 2013 are the same ones but on Netflix it just says it’s confirmed a season 2 is coming
Sup man. Loving the videos on here! It’s so good to see an American understand the UK grime/rap scene and understand the bars. Big love from the UK man. If you want and have time watch the Top Boy tv series. You’ll have a better understanding of the UK grime scene and certain references. Trust me you’ll like it. Big respect!
Dave is in my top five and this fire 🔥 track Professor X is on my playlist for his age mans on another level wit his play on words so many bars went over Layedbaks head "Im a top boy like sully but darker" and "Left on red then blue like Barca" also the Zone 2 like karma line but he could not deny that beat straight up bangz fact believe !! .. Bless Up . ✌🎧📿💯
I never rly listened to uk music even tho im from the uk lol but watching layedbaks reactions has made me wanna listen to it more plus i think u should listen to yung pinch's song looking for existance its rly good anyway love bro 👊❤
OMFG i just got the fifa line at 2:54 he said "little man wanna jump on fifa, im close to the sun like icarus" hes saying hes gonna beat him on fifa so hard he'll make him his son. i've been listening to this song since it came out and i've never caught that bar, dave just too good
‘And I’m in the zone 2 like Karma’ Speaking of ... Zone 2 (UnrulyBad x Karma x Trizzac x Bgody x Lr x Kwengface) - No censor Most popular drill track in a while
Please do “how I met my ex” by Dave. Just him and his piano. 100% written and produced by himself aged 19 with the maturity of someone well beyond his year. Best song by a UK artist of any genre for a lot of years. Please give it love
'I'm a top boy like sully but darker' thats a reference to the UK series called top boy,sully is one of the main characters in it (btw sully is played by kano the UK artist) the show is one of the most anticipated UK shows ever its all about the hood side of London and shows how life is on the streets of London. There are a few UK artists who play roles in the show such as asher d (dushane) dave (modie) little simz (shelley) and scorcher (kamale) its such a sick show id recommend it
U need to react to his old tracks like six paths, picture me, breathe or jkyl and hyde. These lyrics have deep meaning into his life as a youth like how his brother went to prison and how he coped with the struggles with his mum. Also need to listen to his freestyles that he made at the age of 16/17 where they are also banging.
Wonder if comic fans noticed that when the camera panned into his eye the second scene was him sitting in a chair with the Cerebro background looking like Charles himself... Absolutely Mental how creative this guy is!!

They just cant catch those lines tho 🤦♂️
I wish he could catch this, throwing mythology into his bars ffs madness
To the sun*
George Weah it's actually 'son' but, of course it has double meaning
Need to do more Dave, he's so good.
Shame so many of his bars normally go over American's heads though.
They go over his head because he’s not from England, I’m sure a lot of Swedish rappers bars would go over our heads too 😂
Louis Hughes I’m Australian and I caught most bars in his album, we got similar culture tho it seem like, also got to see Dave live was nuts
@@louishughes2310 I can't speak Swedish so probably

Especially with rappers like Stormzy any political references go unnoticed. Like all the stuff about grenfell and Boris Johson

or inglorious ft. skepta, and peace of mind.
You need to do Daves - LA Leakers freestyle bro🔥🔥
One of his best IMO
AJ Tracey is so good. Glad you're playing . Big up to your show again from the UK❤
