Akala - Confronting EDL, Ms. Dynamite, Class & Self-hatred, Veganism, Black Prime Minister? [NFTR] 

You got a good point but what if she feels she doesn't know as much. from experience if I don't know much ill keep quite or talk to the minimum

She just acknowledged that they want to speak too. She said that to be polite not cuz she feels less rightful

I think she's just polite (maybe a little shy) it's not a sign of submissiveness (I heard her saying it when she interrupts someone mostly)

I find her respect 💯 percent attractive.

That subconscious is guilt-rdden, though...

to learn speed talking..

He has the school of Shakespeare art and spoken words google it for certainty

And get brainwashed into unfounded rubbish?

Paul Seager if you had half the IQ and half the educational accomplishments of Akala, you’d be a smart man, not a jealous monger. Go get yourself two doctorates, as Akala has, then if you want to discuss your unfounded accusation, I’d be up for discussing it with you. Until then, hush your noise, your ignorance & bigotry shines bright.

Paul Seager Akala provides evidence and sources for his claims. Maybe try and learn to read so you can have an opinion worth everyone’s time.

Set your bar higher mate.

@@lutherblissett8780 You sound jealous........if you don't think Akala can and does educate YOU need to set your bar higher

I so admire this guy's insightful explanation pertaining to world issues... he does it so eloquently minus the 🌹 color glasses

@@phatmoses9513 if you think so Though many don't. What he and many others fail to acknowledge is the prevalence of racial discrimination and abuse within the BAME groups themselves It's easier target the white population and their perceived bias's the vast majority of whom couldn't give a shit what the colour of someone's skin is and would rather see someone achieve their personal goals through merit rather than a box ticking exercise His argument is flawed based on his own prejudice

@@andrewdavis7017 and right you are...because not one of us could possibly give our OPINIONS without some form of bias...we should find common ground instead of picking apart the difference which are obvious 🤔

yess so true!

Not even when he said his own mothers whiteness embarrassed him? Yeah ok🙄

+Agyako187 I am not a black guy but am originally North African and can relate to a lot of my fellow Africans when it comes to the sort of social and negative perceptions we face here in the west. This guy truly is inspiring especially his message knowledge is power.

+Agyako187 what about bill cosby?

Rahul Kemp Bill Cosby and George Bush have one thing in common......they don't care about black people.

+Cool C 75% veg 25% meat on your plate lool

+Cool C true however if a child grew up on its own mothers milk throughout its childhood life, imagine how stronger the child would be rather drinking another mammals milk which is totally foreign to the child's system.

You stated "If milk can transform a newborn totally dependent baby to a strong toddler who can walk and run...It is common sense that it is good for you." and I replied by stating "imagine how 'stronger' the child would be rather drinking another mammals milk which is totally foreign to the child's system"... Trying to get across to you that our milk is better than cow's milk, goat's milk etc... In addition, just because an infant grows 'healthy' whilst consuming foreign milk does not mean that it's generally good. It may cause health issues in the long run.

+Cool C "Majority of the athletes in NBA and NFL were not breastfeed and they are the most elite athletes." So I have to ask (whilst chuckling) where you got this info from?

Hehe

@@chap0syoutuification I haven't heard any Scottish nationalist and trust me I'm around them a lot being from Scotland ever speak or give a fuck about what DNA the English hold. Modern nationalism in Scotland is about Westminster and the impossibility for Scotland to ever have a say in the UK elections. Overwhelming majority in scotland vote against tories... Tories win... We want separated from a culture that isn't ours so we can have our own identity kept, something the 'English' have had a hand in stamping out through policies dating back far. Also their is the overwhelming evidence that Scotland would be better off economically, which rings well in Scotlands ears after years of tory Austerity which by the way wasnt the only way to go about resolving the financial crash. But what did they go and do, fucking make promises all the Westminster scum with their signed declarations in papers promising Scotland all the goodies. Where did it go. Fucking lies. So take your little DNA poi t and shove it up your ass. On a side note just kidding at the end their. Canny help be a little bit Scottish when talking about Scotland, right? haha But yeah, never heard that argument but I've heard plenty better ones for the nationalist cause for Scotland and Wales. I even support the rest of England trying to spectate economically from London. But then Thatcher made that almost impossible. (Edit: changed Ireland to.Wales.)

Top story.

Hopefully you have soy milk now :)

GazaWG Why does my race matter at all. I mean literally nothing i said had anything to do with race.

+GazaWG You're an ignorant fucker you are, why does race needed to be involved here. Sort your life out.

Cool C For me the smaller interviews he just seems to be jumping between everything so quickly that you lose so much of his interests. I have a foundation in a lot of waht he is talking about and still at time you get such a small image of the situatioon

Cool C Id love to see him make it over to America. However he has been so outspoken i dont know if he could get a visa to preform.

+Cool C its never been about money... money is the route of all evil. Stay good

ok that is the last i heard from him

AintNoGivingIn Entertainment do u have a music company or what does your company entails

Currently promoting the latest Reggae/Dancehall Music via youtube

That would be amazing

+rhys ubold Lol why? They probably don't know his catalogue. I'm sure there are better platforms he should go on first...Breakfast Club is last on the list.

+equalitee I feel they don't need to know his catalogue to have in depth discussions about racism and politics

+rhys ubold Have you ever watched an interview on the Breakfast Club where they know next to nothing about the artist and they've done little research prior? They're usually horrible interviews. Akala is an artist first and foremost not a lecturer of racism and politics. If they don't know his music or much about his career they wouldn't ask him any relevant questions with regards to his career because they have nothing to draw from.

+equalitee the breakfast club have the best interviews period

George and Akala aren't on the same level. Akala is revolutionary and says what others are scared to say. Hence why he's struggled to break into the mainstream. George is nothing special. He's a decent poet but his opinions and knowledge aren't anything special. Hence why the BBC love him.

+jahhutrt lepeed Lol you for real? I'm not even claiming they are on the same level, Akala's been in the game for 10 years, George the Poet only graduated a few years back. Tbh I think he is the best spoken word artist domestically. To be recognised by institutions like BBC isn't regressive at all, Akala himself shutdown Tommy Robinson on that channel lol. In fact Akala even writes for Guardian so I think your point about corporate institutions endorsing artists making them regressive is just bollocks. Go do some research before you chat shit

+jahhutrt lepeed you should listen to his remix of maverick sabre's song

I don't like that yute his dry

it is his interview..

+Upsweep jendorrrrrr

+The Movement I think the other Natural herbalist he's talking about is Dr Llaila Afrika

Sweaar, its easy to think people don't know other people because they don't publicly talk them.

Your so so lovely il love to get to know you

so do i he won court cases in the US against the FDA over his cures of cancer, hiv, etc etc etc

+Irron Dixon Thank you, i felt sorry for the young women. The interview totally went south, i have watched interviews where he said "i wont comment on that" so i was very suprised that he did not reject to the sex questions. Futhermore, he kinda made himself seem like a pig, thats why the young lady started asking him questions to pull him away from the typical male image. Yes, i was completly shocked and felt the time the spent talking about his personal life, could have been spent talking about things that matters.

+Stacha Jolie lord have mercy, the guy is human u know. He sed it himself, no one is perfect. why do people put others on a pedestal only to tear them down. I bet no one looks at u the way u look at akala, therefore u never have to remain such a shining beacon for their so called 'perfect view' of you. Let him live. He probly knew judgemental people would do just that 'judge him' if he talked about his sex life, hence why he has always chosen to keep it private all the time and not comment (like u sed he did in previous interviews u watched), but they clearly dragged it out of him here. Now he's made himself look like a pig. He let u into his life 'for once' and what do u do..insinuate he's made himself look like a pig -_- Just LET HIM LIVE.

+TheDamJudge

Awww Thank you hun x) I judge rap battles hence the title. Anyway stop tryng to flatter me, back to this lol Due to your lack of a cohesive argument, coupled with the fact that you have not responded to 'a thing' I said lets me know everything I said was valid. So I think it's fitting when I say, 'you just lost a battle Stacha Jolie' (JOLIE? As in Angelina Jolie? Really? Talk about not throwing stones from a glass house). RU-vid never ceases to amaze me. P.s Slightly feel guilty coz u like my name x) but hey nonsense just has to be addressed you know! Nothing personal Have a lovely day huni x

Charms is just moist

cool story bro

+Caris Jordana Akala was right on that point. My dad left Africa 23 years ago he hasn't gone back since. I asked him if he is going back? and he was like "son I'm embarrassed to go back people are expecting so much of me". I was surprised when Akala mentioned this I had no idea the Caribbean diasporas have the same problem.

No correlation to how that contradicted your view

I agree that the economic struggles are real which is the migration took place but he's also right about the pressures and feelings of embarrassment. This was also the same for much of the South Asian community. Returning home with nothing to show and dealing with the stigma caused a lot of people to stay in spite of the racism and ongoing attacks at the time. I do get where ur coming from but Akala isn't totally incorrect with what he pointed out has part of the problem, not the entire problem.

@@gordonthefreeman you are clearly not west Indian.

The only problem is that mixed people (black and white) dislike their blackness because of the stigma. Your 50%both black and white. So just don't go around stating "I'm not black or white" cos that isn't possible you are equally

I disagree that show was sort of like what you expect from a side man act to question time, juvenile questioning and answers were that of what you'd expect from a tabloid akala brought knowledge and it was the fault of the host and some of the audience for the poor debate, name one thing he said that was irrelevant, and i mean irrelevant as in a random point which had no place being brought up, not just a point he raised which you may or may not agree with which doesn't equate to irrelevance.

+Imran Kazzy he completey avoided the issue I didn't really hear any knowledge

+Imran Kazzy if I remember correctly instead of having a rational answer when the subject of the Rotherham scandal came up he started goin on about Jimmy savel and then started rambling about when isam in the middle east was at its peak 1000 yrs ago,and laughably didn't even mention that east afica was enslaved by the Muslims for that 1000 yrs..none of which had anything to do with the subject.

Yeah! What did he think trying to battle an intellectual juggernaught like Tommy Robinson! Lol

+Mikel Truss ? it was a debate show not a battle

How have I only just heard of this young man? He’s amazing.

@@crillyreedy8755 righttt

He ain't coming back

What minute does he mention Lowkey?

+Clique Artero PK naaa man I don't wanna get gassed, been waiting 4 years for his return. Best lyricist ever. It's just a fucking mystery whether he'll ever return :(

Your late mate 😑

Cmon bruv ! If ur a fan ur not on job

Harley Paulo but im not really a fan, but hes a sick rapper tho. and he speaks the truth like lowkey, bare respect to both these guys

Rt too hard to comprehend at times

terrormonkey1 Wow you must have a job to want to spend your free time writing that. Its not worth my time to even read the first paragraph, have a good day

icomeinpeace10000000 well, maybe if you and mr "rat" listened to some actual experts on the english language / politics / world history / music / western civilization etc... you would be able to understand. but instead you listen to "akala" ... pitiful

Skulking Rat no "job" at all dude... and if you cant even be arsed to read the first paragraph( ie :"no it isnt") then you have been listening mental ascarids like Kingsley "akala" for way too long...

+terrormonkey1 ease up. Just cause you can constitute sentences with 'complex' vocabulary doesn't make you anymore intelligent than the other.

+Ray Charles I don't know if he's the "smartest," but he has a way of combining intelligence, knowledge, experience, street smarts, worldliness, that not many others can match.

+Scott Trimble ok slight exaggeration.

+Scott Trimble but I truly respect his viewpoint

+Scott Trimble I also concur with your analysis.

He's not smart, he's just charismatic.

+vjvj85 But west-Indians also do well in England and many of the Caribbeans in New York use to live in London like my Aunt and Uncle who live in Flatbush BK - Another issue when we are talking about Jamaicans in Particular, there seems to be a difference from U.K to USA - The poorer ones from Kingston and Teverly Gardens ended up in England where as the Jamaicans from Uptown went to America after the Independance from UK and this is why the Culture is more Proud in U.K. I remember when Caribbean people was ashamed to be from the islands in American back in the day - NOT US

+Lloyd Francis overall not done well. Incarceration rates, single mother home rates, imprisonment rates; key word being rates not that they exist because they exist anywhere in the world These things exist in the USA but not at high rates like that do in the UK or USA. Have there been individuals that have done well, in particular outside of sport and entertainment, yes, but as a collective, no. I'm from the UK so I know what I'm talking about.

+baba roots He said his sister was in a hostel at 14...What is a hostel? And what is it like? What is the ethnic background of the people doing the interview?
