Akala Fire in the Booth (part4) | Reaction 

"This man needs to be a teacher!" Bro, he is. He lectured at the University of Oxford a couple years back on pan-africanism and black history. Deep guy.

Shaq is the realist to react to UK music from the US 💯

No one is on Akalas level his wordplay and knowledge is tides above

"I love this shit but I'm almost bored, I could write one of these every month but to give them a chance I've only done 4" AAAAAAHHHHHHHH

Akala is by far the best lyricist to come out of the UK. Without a doubt. 4 Fire In The Booths, all rapping about facts, history & spreading knowledge, none of which is on any album, single he's ever released. Unmatched.

Lectures, seminars, TV debates... He does the lot! You should really check him out outside of music Shaq!

In the ending he's talking about consciousness. How we are all one but seperated by race,religion,colour etc. he felt everyone's pain as you do when you're at one with the world. And he mentions the cycle of life how we keep coming back to repeat the same shit all over again. Reincarnation bro. Heavy

This is still without a doubt my favourite reaction because at one point in the video your man goes silent and feels the words hit him hard and can see in his face how much it means. You can see in anyone's face how words affect them and your man was tuned in.

I've worked with Akala - to be in his presence is like being amongst the prophets both on and off stage

I still don’t think this ‘Fire In The Booth’ has been topped if I’m honest🔥🔥

Akala (a-kah-lah) is a professor of Egyptology and a huge scholar of Shakespeare. He has gone toe to toe with the best socio-political teachers, scholars, and in some cases politicians that England can produce.

SHAQ IS SO CONCENTRATED HE DIDNT RELISE THE BEAT CHANGED ITS KANO FT GIGGS 3 WHEEL UPS CHECK IT OUT LOL!

Akala is a bloody genius. But when the Patois bruk out.......yesss sah!!!!!! I learnt some stuff today Prof Akala😯

Hahahahhahahaha man said "I just learnt more in 1min & 30 seconds of this video than I did in 4 years of collage." 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭You gimme life. Too funny.

I’m from the uk I vibing of u bro ur reactions are priceless keep em coming man

Could you imagine the mortar fire this man would drop on ANYONE who'd throw a dis-track his way? A reply so savage it'd have to be classed as murder both on a physical and spiritual plain... Like there's no way back from this man returning fire on you.

Deep down I could see that this video burnt shaqs head out 😂 and he wasn’t really feeling this the way a lot of people do. Akala is a lyrical history lesson what not many have patience for. But he is one of the most influential artist/scholars/humans we will see in our lifetime very very smart individual.

The only rapper who can make you grin & give you a headache at the same time Too clever

Akalas 2nd fitb has the most knowledge imo. I feel pt4 was a review or commentary on his own life rather than providing new information (except the monologue at the end ofc).

So glad i found this!! Akala is on a different level. Him and Lowkey.

Lyrical genius!!! .... TRUTH had me in tears I’m not ashamed to say ❤️💔

I swear one of the few that understand English accent.

You should do Akala again shaq now you’re making it brother! you will smash a million views with USA supporting UK Akala ✌️

This was over 10 fingers of death. Mans killed every single beat

YOOOOOO MY MAN FINALLY DID THE REACTION!! 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙 This is my favourite. Glad you did it!

That was so deep. I'm speechless straight fire.got my mind twisting that was so good

Him and Lowkey untouchable bruf

Absolutely loving this channel. Best thing on RU-vid by a country mile

Akala lectures on Shakespeare at Cambridge Universities, man's a double Doctorate... You want some knowledge fam, check out his book, "Natives: Race and Class in the Ruins of Empire" just as much fire there as in his bars!

Amust have requested this 100 times in other vidz uncle akala the flow father💯

Fire? More like nuke in the boot! 😂

No life GANG I'm repping. Shaq your to funny your reactions are FIRE.

best reaction to Akala FITB so far you should search for some of his lectures. I love his full Oxford address, I’ve watched it countless times and still can’t get enough

Akala gots flow it runs in the family I’ve even read one of his books very intelligent brother and it’s good to see your reaction because I respect your show 👏✊

Akala voice: "Knowledge is power"

Yo. I respect your respect bruv. You are so correct. Some people just can not listen to akala. He is tooooo much for their brain. Glad you can follow brother. Akala the teacher. Love.

'This man needs to be in a classroom...' Hes given lectures at 5 Universities (A talk at a 6th), as well as lectures/talks at the Oxford Union, Leicester University and the International Slavery Museum. Hes already done that bro! Hes a god.

Love your reactions bro!!!!

This was the first vid I saw from Shaq yearssss ago… back here in 23 and it’s crazy to see the growth

Pure genius, got to do part 2 & 3

Not only is he in a classroom he lectured in one of the uks most prestigious university in his hoodie

Shaq you support facts and greatness. Your going to the top my friend. Thank you for helping bring back the world of rap to its glory. #endmumble

Yo shaq from uk here, love your reaction vids bro

your a legend mate, what a reaction!

Shaq, my bruda..I wanna say 1 ting. Sincerely I really hope u make whatever target u looking to reach from these clips u do bro. On a real tip I know 4 sho 90% of peeps leaving comments will be genuine. As a almost 34yr old who's (cutting a very long story short) it goes without saying rap/hip hop has always belonged to the supremely talented black folk who call themselves in modernity 'African Americans '. I've been so blessed to have travelled in the last 15yrs all over America, from east/west/south/ midwest/north etc etc. As ur blood brother, English raised black man. I have nothing but a open heart and full knowledge that only Caribbean's/black Latinos can relate to ur reality. I know I've gone fully sideways from my point but I will end with this. I'm a new subscriber to ur content/fully respect how u hear line after line da bars 4m wretch 32 etc etc even though most Americans can't. Honestly can't believe this turned into a essay rite now, in conclusion g...I hope even if you don't make millions from blogs/reaction vids etc..u keep doin it. 2 days straight now I can't stop watching ur vids g. I really hope u see this msg but ull probably get bored after 1st couple lines. Sending you blessings 4 u an ur family Bruva. 👌😎

Shaq u need to champion and push this genius to more of your viewers! x

The love is so overwhelming i dont even see no haters 😎😎

The beat transition at 14:40 🔥🔥🔥

No one comes close to Akala.. but Lowkey and Kano are right up there and should definitely be part of your UK journey!!

"those that talk sense get outlined in chalk" !!

Man could ride any riddim sick

Lowkey is the only one that even comes close to Akala's lyrical education

Hey no life Shaq this man akala the while world deserves to watch this man Akala is insane I've been blasting him driving around during deliveries since he came out in the first fire in the booth man when you check low-key and LOGIC and I'm not talking about the white rapper fire all around England got some 🔥 rappers who blow the doors down like the big bad 🐺 lol

THE UK DJ MIXING SPUN UR HEAD BRO LOL!!. FUNNY VIDS

No life gang! 🤟🏾🤟🏾🔥

i came back after 2 years of watching this and its still one of the most impressive sights to be seen.

I commented this on the actual video when I watched it a few months back but it seems like Akala rhymes even when he talks normally , it’s fucking trippy man . Top 5 of all time for sure . I love your channel Shaq ! Keep reacting to music . And if you could check out perpetual ascension by K-Rino . And also let it burn by K-Rino . Much love man from Cali! Peace

Yeah Bro.. you DID say that he should be teaching, and he IS.. Akala be lecturing at Oxford University about Racism and shit. (very perceptive of you man)

Shaq you need to get on Mic Righteous fire in the booth part 1, 2 and 3.

OOOOOHHHHH SHIIIIIIT that last part was fucking DEEP!!!!!! I don't usually listen to stuff like this but I got fucking goosebumps!

Akala the best!!!

Just listen and learning..Greatness of a higher level..woyyyyy oyyyy..🌋🌋🌋🌋💯

Still need this reaction to hit a mill 😂😂 glad how far you have come bro, even my dad watched your reactions to rock music (class) but I'm on the UK hip hop I wish you would react to DURRTY GOODZ BARCODE 8 pleaseeeeee
