Naa Akala is Shakespeare Dave is David Attenborough

The whole last part when he stood up was extra, he knew he had a chance and a platform to say something and he took it! The Brit awards is like your Grammies or oscars, it has the whole country watching 👏

He’s 23 and has taught me to learn history that was never taught at school. I’m a 49 year old Scottish woman and I am so happy for the reaction this is receiving in the US. He is astounding ❤️ thank you I’m sure he will only educate more by your video x

He was 21 when he performed it at the brits it was last February

One thing, this performance was legendary, the brits is basically the grammies but in the uk! So the fact that he called out the prime minister is crazy

I was at the Brits when this was performed, it gave me chills! Nothing else on the night compared. Dave stole the show and really put the spotlight on some serious problems within the U.K. Excellent reaction video.

Had to be special being in the building for this!

One thing (among many) that I love about Dave's talent is that when he was younger he was going through a really rough time, his brother had been sent down for life, he was suffering with depression etc - so as an outlet he taught himself piano. People always drop mad respect for the fact he can play piano, but when you find out he is self taught - mind blown.

I keep watching these reaction vids, because I love seeing the truth told and how good Dave is, its one of the best Brit performances ever. Its a master piece.

I love this reaction.. You didn't interrupt too much. You went back a few bars, after commenting; so you could re-hear his verse making sure you didnt miss anything. And you just got it and got how sick he is!! This song/performance is massive in UK - I dont get how it hasn't exploded globally or even just in the US??? weird.

This is the kind of art that artists should be dropping instead of rapping about selling drugs and beefing with each other. The time is perfect for change, for uniting against discrimination. More and more white people are standing beside our black cousins and rejecting racism and discrimination. I definitely am. I'm so glad my parents taught me to treat people how you want to be treated, being kind doesn't cost a penny.

Nah Dave is that once in a generation Genius.

He’s only 23 he writes , plays, produces his own beats and directs his videos now, check out question time, panic attack, psycho, heart attack & drama, he’s lost his older brother too that’s what dramas about

So, I watched a documentary, lastnight, on Netflix. Was about Notorious BIG and while I was only about 11 or 12 when he was in his prime and I’m from U.K. and obviously wasn’t into rap music, I really really really like his music. He’s rhymes and flow was crazy. It’s funny because when I was 18 or 19 my girlfriend bought me a bunch of U.K. Garage Vinyl from Local underground Record Store and along with the U.K. Garage, she also bought me Notorious BIG Big Pappa. I remember playing and loving it, remembered it’s from 1 of those Ghetto Gangsta movies, maybe Boyz In The Hood Or Menace To Society but as I wasn’t really into rap, back then, I never looked up any more of his music. I got into rap , around 20. I’m gonna go ahead and check out Biggies Albums. I think Documentary said he released 3, any1 know if they all good? If so, I’ll buy em all. Damn shame he died at age 24. He would have been about 10 years older then me, if he was alive right now. Was he involved in gang shootings etc? All the Documentary touched on, was his journey in music and selling drugs. He didn’t seem like a shooting type. He seemed like what he was, a really cool slick guy that could rap his arse off.

I fucks wid heeeem, bro you gotta do his fire in the booth you wont be disapointed👊

David Merritt, Jack Merritt's father speaking only days after Jack was stabbed to death in the terror attack. "My son, Jack, who was killed in this attack, would not wish his death to be used as the pretext for more draconian sentences or for detaining people unnecessarily. R.I.P. Jack: you were a beautiful spirit who always took the side of the underdog. Jack lived his beliefs, He held me to a high standard; he would have expected me to say this, and would have pulled me up had I not! He was an exceptional young man, and I'm only finding out the half of it now he's gone. I don't feel inspirational, but Jack was."
