KOTA the Friend - Alabama Hills (Official Video) 

It never ceases to amaze me how much depth KOTA can pack into two minutes or less. Pure poetry.

Bruh! I swear some days... We don't deserve you King

Man's shaped my life. I make music now. I get paid to be an audio engineer. All because of people like kota that told me to be strong and believe in myself. I dont know how to thank you KOTA, but I will.

Real friends are supposed to believe in you when no one else does and to celebrate you when you make it. Without expecting anything in return. Let your friends’ wins inspire you to create your greatness instead of thinking they owe you a handout ❤

Been a supporter for a couple years. Love from North Alabama

Anytime Kota drops a track it's an automatic start to a good day 🌿🌌

Powerful! Crazy how you get Love as long as you are "on your way to sucess" but once you get it, the Love turns into resentment. A reminder of the dreams they never chased.

Family stuff is crazy bro! It's a shame that some people don't realize they can get the best out of their loved ones by being their own best self. "Alot of shit it broke my heart, but it fixed my vision" - Freddie Gibbs

Kota is the truth best album this month so far

He don't miss!!

i will work on a song with Kota the Friend one day, speaking it into existence 🙏🏼

Dads are complicated. Imagine creating your eternal replacement. You would need to put your ego aside. That's hard for a king. But a prince will always become a king. And Kota is a friend.

Johannesburg approves 🔥🔥💯

kota is literally a fucking god. you need to come back to the city and perform, i need to see you again.

This is art man

Kota, always creating beautiful art. Keep doing your thing it feels like artists like this are rare in this day and age!

peace & blessings! ✌🏼🙏🏻🧘🏻‍♂☀

Locked in

Commenting for the algorithm

Keep chasing the dream KOTA.

Eye feel ya Kota keep going keep creating stay motivated never sell your soul & I ain’t talking bout just music one can sell themselves short in many ways

Bruh....theres so much nuance to this I gotta comment what's on my mind. This song sounds like a homie opening up to me about how a past friend did him dirty...and there's the deep pain and anger when you finally realise y'all really aren't apart of each others lives anymore. The sense of not only no longer growing together but abandonment. People only take romantic breakups serious, but platonic friendships that feel so deep they might as well be your sibling hurt just as bad. Because of that I'd allow my friend to petty. And lash out when he's confiding in me.....BUT When you hear how he's lashing out and the toxic azz sh*t he's saying at the peak of anger and frustration... this is really where I'd step in as a friend and point that shit out to him. Sometimes people don't even realise what they're saying and need someone outside of themselves to be the mirror for them to reflect. It's okay to let go. They don't wanna grow with you anymore? That's them. Being left behind hurts, but all you can do is follow your own and hope for the best. I could also be completely be missing the mark tho. This is just what this felt like to me on the first few listens. Edit: upon some more reflecting....sometimes things end....and they end because WE were in the wrong. Because we were toxic. We were a villain in their story. And THAT'S OKAY. As long as you know and understand it was you and choose to be better. We are not perfect beings, mistakes are made everyday, every hour, every second. It's on you if you choose to make the same one over, and over, then it's your fault people don't stick around. I need MOREE MUSIC LIKE THIS DAMN. I'm getting tired of boring narratives.

I went to Alabama with my closest and I came back to seperate because of what Kota is talking about

Wtf, I be real I kinda fell off this man for awhile, just didn't really vibe with his releases, But these last few tracks have been seriously fire. Good stuff!

This is artistic and amazing. Kinda gives off the same vibes as Joyner Lucas' Broski though

💙🛸

Damn! Really toxic character that's addressed in this track. Dope writing from Kota.

Love it, keep on the good job brother, just talk less about girls 😂

Well.... Damn. Songs nice and all. Real artsy and soulful, but I feel like an accomplice to the shenanigans. Especially with a sign off like that😅

-MIC CHECK OF THE GODS!.💪🏾🦾💪🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾-

😂

I came here by RU-vid ad.

He reminds me of Nick Grant and just like Nick, this probably wont get as many views as these dudes destroying their own communities like NBA and making millions off of it.

❤❤❤
