Bit of context: Jack Merrit was a Cambridge graduate who devoted his life to help rehabilitate people in prison for violent offences. A guy he was helping was let out but committed a terror attack on London Bridge killing jack and another person. The media and politicians then used it to further their agendas which has led to more focus on long sentences as opposed to rehab - something jack was against. Windrush generation was thousands of migrants that were encouraged to come to the UK after ww2 to fill the workforce, but have become increasingly ignored as time has gone on. Grenfell was an apartment block that burned down killing 72 people. The fire spread because of flammable cladding on the outside of the tower. Cladding like that used to be used decades ago but regulations now require different, safer cladding, yet Grenfell was still covered in the old, unsafe cladding. The government, who are responsible for these buildings, have been accused of not properly maintaining them because the apartment was full of migrants and poor people (low priority).

Grenfell goes deeper than that, it was government housing, meaning that it was there to help those struggling (mostly black and arabic families) and the cladding was put on the outside to make it look better so that those who were in offices didnt have to look at a big ugly concrete structure. It burned down and poor people lost their lives because of rich peoples doing. Poverty in the UK goes much deeper than black and white fam.

Chloe Waterworth oh my days how illiterate could u be read what I wrote first

I'm black British this song made me tear up😭

"Black is stepping in for your brothers because your fathers gone"-A massive truth,that leaves many young black kids with no real male role model or influence in their lives.So,many find comfort in gangs because it fills the void and their longing for a family unit.I would die for my family in a heart beat and that is how they feel about the other gang members.If work can be done to keep the family unit together(i know its not always possible) and funding is given to provide placces for these lost souls to go and feel loved,respected,important and appreciated then it would go a long way to helping so many people turn their lives around.

That last verse is not on the original track. Dave used his Brits performance to talk some home truths! love it

And that's one of the reasons he one album of the year!!!I'm so proud of him and stormzy I just wish these brothers were played over here in the United States 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸

He touches so many deep subjects, listen to “Dave - Lesley (ft ruelle)”

Dave is special talent man, the truth is in his words, it might not be truth to others but it is to many including me and I’m a white British man but brother we speak the same language. The bar where he says equality doesn’t need credit is spot on. I had debate on this recently where on LinkedIn I saw loads of posts saying “x company announce 1st female ceo” or some shit and I put a comment saying why can’t we just say the persons name becomes CEO. When you put statements like this all you want is that positive attention but it feels forced and questions if it’s what the company really wanted. Equality is at its best when it doesn’t need recognition it’s just normal and the right to everyone, women, men, non binary, black, white, gay, straight or whatever. We all have our own lives and choices we make, we should be loving and supporting one another naturally not all this other shit going on which drives mental health through the roof. Anyway that’s my piece, stay safe everyone

I agree with this comment 100%! Stay safe mate ❤️

Apart from the story of the song which was one of the most factual songs I’ve heard, he is so lyrically gifted and just such an inspiration for anyone this blokes amazing

This had incredible power. The emotion behind his words can really be felt through his delivery. I'm not black, I'm a straight, white male. But even so you can tell he's really trying to convey how behind the UK is in terms of reparations for ancestors of slavery compared to the US, and we're still not doing enough. I love watching your videos, and while I can't empathize to what you've been through, or any of the black people I've met in my life have gone through, I'm hoping as our generation ages and starts to take more seats of power in the world real change can be made. Nothing but love and positivity man.

I swear every time I hear this song I get choked up. Speechless. Beautiful. Great review as always!

I am a very proud englishman from Liverpool and i also know all my heritage is Irish. I can not pretend to ever a tiny clue about these incredible lyrics and the meaning. I honestly was amazed at the quality and thought and depth of intelligence at this young mans lyrics. wow !!! Without doubt if this was 400 years old we woul be calling this man Shakespeare.

I remember listening to this when the album came out and it still gives me goosebumps

Was eager for you to see this, so glad you've reacted to it! Highlight of the Brits

Watched it a thousand times and get goosebumps every time. No other song gives me goosebumps on my face for real!! Dave is a genius.

No performance in music gives me chills like this. One of the most powerful performances in history for me, what an artist.

I keep trying to find reactions of this and now you've reacted. Yeeee

I’ve watched this performance a thousand times but it still gives me goosebumps. Dave could of performed his most popular songs but he decided to do this one so props to him for using his platform to speak up.

Have listened to tbis songs so many times and EVERY single time. it sends shivers down my neck. 🖤

I liked how this guy reviewed this, well spoken. Amazing reaction vid.

This guy is amazing and so wise beyond his years. An anthem like this is needed right now ❤️🇬🇧

Epic, amazing, fire! True words spoken with real heart. Dave had the guts to say how many of us are feeling, he did it under intense spotlight and scrutiny and he couldn't have performed it or said it better. I get chills every time i listen to this ❤

I watched Dave perform this as it went out on TV and it hit me hard. Pure emotion.

This was the reaction we all needed. The power of music

When you pause it you should press left on your keyboard so you go back a few seconds in case you miss something

One of the most powerful, honest, thought provoking, pieces of art I've ever seen.

I watched this live and literally had my jaw on the floor at the end of it. It got better with every word he said!!!!

Dave honestly speaks facts my heart goes out to him he ain’t one to start beef all he wants is peace and people to understand how life really is ,his music has such an important storyline behind it 🙂

Throughout all your uploads man I’ve noticed one thing. You always stay true to yourself! Much love from aus man!

These lyrics are spot on. When i watched this live i was amazed. This man makes me proud to be British. Nothing else. LOVE DAVE

I’m from the same area as where Dave came from in London and to see him performing at the Brit awards inspires me no cap

Beautiful song, I’m Middle Eastern some things I can relate too but even though I haven’t, it felt like I lived through every word that’s how good it is, makes me emotional how people have to still live through suffering like that 🥺

Big up Dave he’s always been on top 🇬🇧🔥

This one of them songs that actually makes you feel something, you can feel his pain in his words. It’s such a beautiful song and his lyrics mean so much, amazing. It’s

every time i watch dave performing that it gives me goosebumps

being from the uk it’s cool to see Dave getting reckonised in the USA

Dave is definitely the greatest UK rapper already. Insane talent and putting it to good use.

As a white person I cant begin to imagine what black people go through on a day-to-day basis it's sad how we're still living in a world that's so full of hatred towards people that are of a certain ethnicity 😔 hopefully one day that'll all change but for now stay strong 👍🏻

Tell that to White Farmers in South Africa lmao. I agree with 99% of things Dave mentions here but everyone seems to forget the millions of white families/kids in the UK especially in the north who are dirt poor that the government doesn't give a fuck about. It's insulting to these people when Black folks say if you're white your instantly better off. It's the UK's ruling white-class vs everyone else. These people don't give a shit about working-class people whether you're black/white/purple/green. and yes, Boris Johnson is a racist as are many of these elitist cunts.

Callum You don’t get to draw a line over other peoples’ reality. You do you, Boo, but you don’t know me so you don’t decide how hard or not my life is vs white counterparts. This ain’t about socio-economics. Listen to what Dave said about the way the media treats Duchess Meghan vs Duchess Kate. If you still get don’t it then Dave got a lyric for you too; “You’re never gonna get it”.

Reaction to Lesley from Dave’s album. One of, if not the deepest song I’ve ever heard. He is a gifted lyricist/ writer/ actor/ rapper/ poet. The stories he tells are moving, powerful and relatable. Legend in the making at just 21 years old.

I can't lie.... I was emotional when the original video to this first came out..... But this performance made me cry for real & I feel emotional everytime I watch it! 🔥 #proudofdave

Big up all the coloured people who deal with racism not just black or brown everyone who deals with racism ❤️

I liked how he improvised towards the end 🔥
