TRE-TV REACTS TO - Dave - Black (Live at The BRITs 2020) 

Jack Merrit was attending a social event helping ex convicts with new paths alongside a girl work colleage and both were killed by a terrorist attack when an armed man entered the event and took their lives. I also beleive Jack worked with Daves brother whos in prison doing a life sentence. Some background for you guys - Sanka

"If he's white you give him a chance, he's ill and confused, if he's black he's probably armed, you see him and shoot" has got to be one of the toughest lines I've ever heard!

It says a lot about Dave that as a new artist making his first appearance at the brits he chose this song and added the third verse. On his second appearance he did "in the fire" which has 4 features who all appeared live with him so he shared his spotlight with 4 underappreciated uk rappers. He's a real one.

No one in America is doing it like Dave. He really is the goat

The white guy on piano is Fraser T. Smith, a famous UK producer for urban music, he worked with Stormzy, Dave , Ghetts, Adele and more. Lovely review. This track should become a part of school curriculum. IMO, It is the best hip hop track ever. Plus that is how you drop the mic 😁

Definitely more Dave please! He’s phenomenal. Thanks so much guys!

Daves great, love the way he called out our Prime minister, nothing changed with the new one we have either. Nice reaction chaps ❤

Please check out the Akala fire in the booths in order parts 1 - 4, absolute genius on the mic dishing out history lessons. Spread out over 10 years you get to see him grow, each one gets better.

You guys might be my new favourite reactors! Keep up the good work fellas 🎉

GREAT conversation and insight built on experience encompassing the reaction. subscribed. Keep grinding my guys 👏🏽

You guys need to check out Dave BRITs 2022 live performance - In the Fire ft. Gigs, Meekz, and Fredo

wow.. you did it! so glad you got to see this version. subbed!

Both sides of a smile by Dave next please it’s so good!!

Watched about 10 reacts to this tonight, you two are fantastic 👏🏽

I feel like more people should talk about how daves dressed in all white and the other pianist all black

This song gives me goosebumps every time I hear it! Great reaction as usual 💯

Things that are taboo and kept quiet that need to be said and heard . Mans on another level class . Thank you guys great reaction as per 🔥🔥💙

I was both proud and horrified when, a few months after this aired, George Floyd's murder resulted in protests worldwide. I was proud to see many of my friends and acquaintances stand up and speak up in defense of minority rights. I still cannot understand how many people proudly and loudly voiced their racist views. I mean why? We may look different. speak and eat differently, but show me a 4 year old girl from anywhere who doesn't want to be a princess! Our dreams are the same. Our hearts are the same. Our opportunities should sure as shit be the same.

that last verse he added live on tv and called out the government

Been waiting for this

Dave the goat 🐐

Brilliant performance. Brilliant reaction 👏

Absolutely love this video. It’s definitely up there with Joyner Lucas I’m not racist. Unfortunately Boris Johnson and the Conservative party over the last 14 years the uk has become even more racist since this, Dave performance at the Brits

React to more Dave. “My 19th birthday” “Heart attack” “Leslie”.

Beautiful 🔥🔥🔥

You guys need to check out Akala and Lowkey.

Thank u so much Tre ❤been checking for this all day.Appreciate u for remembering 🥰🥰xxxx

Thank you...!!!

You guys need to watch akala fire in the booth part 1 and part 4

As a white guy I found this reaction video excellent and actually dropped some knowledge on me with the not knowing last name and not knowing original language that’s actually heartbreaking when you deep it man dropped a sub and a like glad I found the channel 🤝👌

Seen this performance so many times but this video made me see that Dave is wearing a white suit and the other pianist (white guy) is in a black suit. This song isn't anti-white but is pro awareness. Inequality still exists unfortunately. Very important performance

Omg ❤

As a first-time watcher, can I please give some advice. First of all, ya'lls commentary is golden, change nothing there. That being said, I think you missed a lot of the lyrics in this song by not going back a little everytime you heard something notable to you (which is why we're here in the first place). Don't be concerned with taking your time with stuff like this...I know I'm here for your thoughts on it so don't rush it. Great video nonetheless and subbed. Much love from Africa

There are so many references and amazing bars that you missed.. but I wont explain them all here. I will just sub, for you reacting to this live version.

DNA isreal

Glad you did this. Dave is in my top 3 in 🇬🇧. Check out ghetts as well please. He’s my no1

You're engery feels real... respect that 👊😶‍🌫️

Like you guys reactions only thing is when you pause please rewind before you carry on or you miss parts. 🙏🏾👑

Not just hispanics. You would find the darkest Somalis with straight silky hair.

love this review but in future can you guys rewind a little before you press play so you don’t miss the whole line

People of colour around the world stand with palastine ❤❤❤

If there will be ever repratitions you will have to know your ancestry, documentation, that you have/had slave heritage from 1800's , 1700,s and do a DNA test.

10:43 not-so-fun fact but when slavery was abolished in the UK the government did pay reparations… for the slave traders. it was basically a bribe to make them stop and apparently until 2015 tax payers were still paying it back. since i learned that i’ve always thought it was insane that the actual people affected weren’t compensated in any way and yet i see people patting the uk on the back for the abolition. it’s obviously still good that it happened but that bit just leaves a sour taste in my mouth thinking what that enormous sum of money that was being paid out for over 200 years could’ve been used for if given to the correct people

Ebony & ivory

The problem with reparations is the wrong people will be targeted. Back in 1807 Queen Victoria passed the Abolition of Slavery. The British tax payer paid off the slavers, freeing a huge number of slaves. A debt that only just got settled in around 2015 (roughly). The problem was the money went to businesses, slavers and elite families (the Lords of the time) who had an interest. They deserved jail, but was given a fortune. Today, reparations should be paid by any family or business in any nation who profited from the slave trade. From the British Royal family to the King of Benin. There are many businesses still in operation that earned a fortune. As to what Dave mentioned, equality is a birth right that has been stolen by the elite. Will it change? I hope so, but we must stop electing clowns to shut down the circus.

"reparations for the time our people spent on plantations" you said its not possible. you never know and you should never stop demanding. In Canada natives gor reparations of 28 billion dollars to surviving family members for the genocide by the early Canadians when the country was founded.

We don't have racism like you do it piss me off

First thing first slavery is bad but before the African slave trade their was a white slave trade done by the vikings on anglo saxons i.e. white british people and that slave trade set white Britain back a lot but advanced the Scandinavians loads does that mean that all British people can claim reparations and claim the reasons we suffering is down to being taken as slaves by them and we only struggling because we wasvtaken as slaves it the ssme time period 200 years ago it was black slave trade but 400 years zgo it was white slave trade to ghe point america went to war with arab states because they was taking white slaves but i never heard a cry for money from white slave descendents why? Yes therevwas more white slaves tsken by barberry pirates then the whole african slave trade also it wasnt white people selling other white people into slavery but research african slave trade their was whole empires that made thier money from selling other black people into slavery to the point that they put the fact that they would only sign peace and trade treties if the European countries would agree to them selling black slaves to them because thats how they made money they went to war with other black tribes to take captives and sell them to white people but that history kinda forgotten just read true history yes white people might have encouraged it but african countries been doing it for centuries before we came there ssme as white been selling white slaves for centuries before we ever got go Africa but that dont suit the victum culture does it facts dont matter

Now guys u lost me on that what to be black ! Come live in poor white England we don’t know the Royals or Ed Sheeran !

Cry me a river🤦‍♂️

The worst reaction vid I’ve seen in a long while literally every 10 seconds stopping the video ffs

good content guys

Boris Johnson the PM was in the audience 😂
