100💯 best ever uk rapper! Coming from an Irish man.

In my eyes Dave has his own ‘genre’ he speaks what he lives in the form of ‘rap’ he is just educating not trying be a big man . He is so educated for his age. I have more respect for him than I do for 90% of the industry combined. Dave is The future

If Dave keeps this up he can be the greatest rapper of all time imo

Dave @ j hus xx

Anyone still here 2019 ?

He's right Robinho did let his talent go to waste

Seen him in concert jesus hes special so much talent and grounded

So true

Just listen to stormzy their man singing blinded by Your Grace and then I listen to Jordan Peterson and all the intellectuals and really brilliant Ibrilliant . I never heard Jordan save ihe was an atheist? Shit I forgot who I was talking to I was talking to the G's man the Grimes you know you know you know who you are so no for that yeah on the Arie piece love happiness prosperity I wish ( insert ) Giggs is telling you,fuckin GIGGS BROTHERS

No Brother he's fantastic , can't wait for the Masterpiece Black Album .Just Like Pink Floyd -the dark side of the moon., Metallica Black Album . AC/DC Black AlbumEd Sheeran if they give him a break would make a great classic stormzy him he's going to make a black album I'm speak I'm using speak now yeah will you get my driftYou may not want to hear this stormzy is bringing his back to the lord and so is Dave.

Mans a fucking lyricist !!🖤🔥

Raw talent. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

call me schofield cos i got prison in my skin..dave explains race as well as any author or scholar but does it with such skill. mans got bars like a prison cell

Un-freakin-believable 🙌🏼

Don with intellect painting pictures like Picasso

Dave - 🐐

You can hear the nerves in his voice, oh how far he’s come. One in a generation.

Uk best rapper...Love u Dave

Here to listening after just listening to your new album as good as six paths

Any listeners in 2019?

Yeah, guvnor. Listening in 2019. Before he was famous, eh?

It really annoys me how this doesn't have more views

@Jack Trorey his fire in the booth hotel California cover is the greatest

this is insanely good wtf

One of the only rappers that doesn’t have a backing track sing the song for them or have 7 other guys on stage with him singing his song more then him. This is a true musician!

Dave and J Hus are the best in the uk atm

'talent go to waste like robinho' true bars right there

Am addicted to his music. The realest rapper

Woooow 😍😍😍

If you like this check out panic attack live!!! https://youtu.be/kD86A-y6ErU

ive literally been listening to his music for 2 hours now

Amazing. Would have been perfect if they turned down the acoustics a touch.

2018 and still listening to this great song

YOU ARE THE BEST

Shine young blood, shine

100% Dave’s most underrated song, no doubt about it🔥 The greatest in the making

Anyone else?

Andy Chapman I’ve heard question time. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good song, it’s just there’s a lot more better dave songs

BMG Darby 100%

Agreed; just wondered.His an exceptional talent.

Nah, listen to Panic Attack

the music should never be higher than the vocals sort it out and it would have been 10/10.

This guy is gonna be like Tupac, biggie and all the other legends

hardd as fuck

Breaking down walls.....

Nice song 😭😭😭😭😭😭😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😓😔😔😔😔😔😔😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😯😯😯😯😯😯

Dave making statements

There's no limit to where this young man can go, so much knowledge for his age.

i dont like rap but i love this !

Mesmerizing..reps Dave u got pure talent,Ty for this.

santan dave. remember the name, the GOAT in the making.

"You can call me scholfield, why? Coz I got prison in my skin" 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Love music right

Oi had to like,

Man like Santan

real talk. great music

Dave is sick. Wish he had performed Samantha.

Mad respect for this not into people singing in there grime songs but this was just straight up rap over simple music.

Good bloke with a social conscience !Bob!

Dave is a Legend!!!

I've never really got on with hip hop, loved Nas and loved cypress hill- typical coaster! This song is a serious piece of music, what a flow and as someone who has never really opened his eyes to this style of music this literally blew my mind. I hope this man goes far what a star !!

uk tupac real talk

Drizzy Nac ..... Agree all day.... This guy has been inspired by Tupac .... We miss Pac..... Peeaaace Drizzy..

I not here to row, Tupac-Biggie . I like Classics , I've never listened to them. Don't judge. I listen to load of stuff, I was 20 or something when he was out. I showed my friends in school in London about Rap (9 yrs old). But my point is , now in Dublin they only know Tupac n Biggie .

To anybody who thinks that rappers aren't real musicians - NUFF SAID!!!

❤️✨

too mad

Man like santan

I feel like a should re evaluate my life all of a sudden 😳😂

that was fuegooo af

Wow!!!! Dave 🔑💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

love him

Man, he wasn't just spitting barz he was telling a story

he poured his heart out

Why did he use the word "kids" instead of "yutes"? Because of the audience? Or because the BBC advised him to?

Amethyst Johnson so everyone can underw

Or because he is a Fuking genius why question what he does

like button smashed before this acoustic beauty even blessed my ears

Dave is a conscious young rapper unlike the mumble rappers we have nowadays lol may God keep guiding you to be a conscious rapper for the rest of your life. Stay true to your yourself always because that's where you will find contentment.

Very talented guy.

Am I the only one that gets this feeling when watching Dave do performances like this - actually feels like we're watching the greatest in the making.

Don skeng i feel you exactly bro, i feel like i could play my future children this song the message behind it is pure

Don skeng my man's the next Adele

Don skeng 100% he's so good spits the truth which is why his performances are moving

'I'll come back with a shotty and blow your lungs out your ribcage' never heard such violence sound so beautiful

I love how simple and chilled Dave is despite being so talented, not to mention good looking. He's so different really hope the young man goes far x

talented young man, flow is a bit off though.

Dave has got a bright future,one of the best rappers in Britain and he's only going to get better

Love seeing people who don't know grime appreciation Dave

Billy Maher but this is not grime

Jaylano M what is it then

This isn't grime it's just UK rapGrime has a different beat and it's often faster

Grime is completely different, the beat is much faster and the lyrics don't really have any meaning; this is rap, Grime is more of an upbeat tune you can dance to in the club and so on.

@Jack Barber 👀👀👀 don't have meaning..? 💀

Love seeing people that don't know grime appreciating dave

they should've turned his mic up

he's only 19...

incredible, legend.

fukin sik

You can call me scofeld got prison on my sling but not in my mind though🔥🔥🔥

If White peeps attach 2 u then u know u've made it. They control our world today. Go on Dave, hope u remember to empower your boys n keep it 100. Don't sell out I beg.

Crashonher NOYB very sad but very true. White people hold the lock and the key.

Skrrrrr

Crashonher NOYB i feel your pain brother, but power hungry rich people control this world, mostly white, but human beings are the root of all our problems

‘Whites’ run Hollywood and all of the worlds central banks, all the world’s media and all the most important multinationals. Just happens that these ‘whites’ all happen to share a common religion.

He won’t sell out he brings the mandem everywhere

We're witnessing greatness

Nah this was too sick , swear Dave is too real with what he does , sickest

Great future for this one

man like Jools Holland

Doesn't matter what genre, real talent shines through

Apart from Screamo/Extreme Heavy Metal... That shits just fucked

You say that, bet you couldnt play any of it, take talent. Even if its not to everyones taste

best rapper in the UK 💯

in fact my bad let me rephrase that, who are your top 5 UK?

Joe Williams man said D double E haha the only guys competing with Dave is wretch and avelino. Talking real rap not grime.

Ha Literally what I was thinking lol, Dave, Wretch, Avelino and a new girl coming up called Alicai Harley, best ones putting on for real rappers

Joe Williams r u fucking retarded

Dave and ATO are the best in the UK.

this is amazing

piano as well... stop it!

This young man has a bright future.
