Worked last night. Studied for an exam all day. Cooked, cleaned, homeschooled, changed diapers and gave hugs in between it all. Came up for air and found this video. I shed tears. Thank you for this song✊🏿.
RESPECT!
Respect
I’d put the kids to sleep after a long day of taking care of everything and I was catching up on work when I found it...I can relate. It’s so thoughtful to have this piece of art to further these conversations about how society “deals” with us as black women.
🖤🖤🖤
👑👑👑 sister Queen
Hugging you back sis
Who else believe D Smoke earned his win all himself in Rhythm And Flow? This man is very talented, I swear.
That’s one win I agree with he definitely deserve it
yup
Wasn’t close. He’s a special artist. I was inspired watching him and would love to compete in season 2 myself.
Yes Sir
czcams.com/channels/5vGPD30ds9GvCWzjHkhKyA.html
Lol I watched the first episode with snoop said "this man just won no pint in watching the rest" didn't finish watching it then realised he has an while album and now this.
As a married working man, that initial dialogue really made me contemplate. I am my best version at work,but when I'm at home I feel like I don't try as hard to please my wife like I do my boss. Considering I don't even like my boss, I find this fact quite sad. This is true art here.
Damn that was some real honesty king💯
✈️ czcams.com/video/QJPvxKaBIZs/video.html ✈️✈️
Love the honesty. That was a great convo between ms Giovanni and mr baldwin that sadly doesn't get enough flowers
Yesss Sirrr🧕🏾
As I woman I fully felt this thanks for your honesty. Don't stop trying when you come home.
D Smoke is easily one of the greatest emcees of this generation. He deserves way more recognition. Black Habits deserved a Grammy.
He got nominated today so fingers crossed!
@@Riorioriorioriorioriorio I really want him to win
no one is more deserving imo
I listened to that album like 20 times
I agree
This is how many people love and respect our women...
👇🏾
That ain’t a lot tho
A month later & the numbers are still low! Smfh 🧐🙄
Don’t use this for likes it’s a serious problem
✈️ czcams.com/video/QJPvxKaBIZs/video.html ✈️✈️
D smoke is a different breed when it comes to music.
ON EVERYTHING
Facts
✈️ czcams.com/video/QJPvxKaBIZs/video.html ✈️✈️
I’m in tears. “I question if you even like women” ... I think this all the time.
I felt that queen.
✈️ czcams.com/video/QJPvxKaBIZs/video.html ✈️✈️
ME TOO. lol
I literally looked over to my sleeping wife and teared up. This woman has my back!!!! keep the dope work fam.... been a fan since the Rhythm and flow days.
Treat her like a queen like the king you are.
This dude never disappoints. he's terribly underrated.
Terribly underated for now, lets stay positive :)
Facts I overlove this guy 🖤🖤💫 Genius
Give him time he just came out fr it's xomin he didn't even put out his LP yet
Let’s Keep Him A Secret Yall, his music is beautiful ‼️‼️
Terribly underrated it’s heartbreaking 💔
I see people talking about D Smoke being the next Kendrick. Stop the BS, D Smoke is D Smoke, stop comparing them
Right!!!
Im one of them - I call him the next Kendrick because Kendrick is the best right now also def one of the goats wit a many influence & heavy lyrics. D Smoke got the potential to be the next Kendrick!
He does sound a lot like Kendrick tho, nothing wrong with comparisons, especially if they’re positive.
Pac, kendrick and dsmoke from they own cloth 💯
@@MikeEpps90 Thats a huge NOPE!! he aint no Kungfu Kenny, He a better artist overall than Kendrick,...he can sing, rap, and play musical instruments...he is just missing the push and back up from a major label, but i prefer him like this in his raw musical talent...as soon as he signs to a label,..his talent gonna be watered down to trash lyrics and trap beats as thats what makes money now. PS: i love kendrick too.
"Imagine God say She sick of it. And took all our women"
Damn.
Though I love the meaning its very disrespectful to call God a women when the Bible clearly says he's a Father.
@Splooshy not according to those words but ok... im not condemning him, I just think we should watch what we say...we've been cursing our selves without knowing it for hundreds of years... the God we serve has explicit rules for eternal life...
@@TheMeriot1 It's not disrespect, it's truth. God is a Black woman. She was a Black woman long before men decided She was a man, and White at that. Look at the Venus of Willendorf, carved 25,000 years ago back when we lived the path of our spirit and not the path of our ego.
@@Sunmoonandstars123 okaaaaayyy! Devil is coming now
@@TheMeriot1 your not reading the entirety of the Bible. Go read again.
D smoke speaks truth in all his music. All those who ain’t rappin bout nothin but money n drugs take a hit of this substance. Use your platform to speak life.
I haven't really listened to rap/hip hop since A Tribe called Quest/Run DMC went out and Gangster came in, and on account of being a metalhead I'm not really in touch with the scene, but once in a while as I'm clicking around I'll find a gem like this one that has something to actually say that makes me appreciate this genre once more :3
This whole track moisturized my skin , oiled my scalp and grew my hair 3 inches. Your work is Impeccable!!!!!
On god you just cracked me up 😂
GREW MY SCALP GIRL ME TOO LMAOOO😭
@@JesusShuttlesW_rth has wwwwwwwwwww
you said that nicely
And it did!
This need to go BIG !!
I wish I had a big públic to support things like this one, I mean, when a black man does something positive and with substance all the other big and famous ones should share it to show it to our people.
Like, we should make a social media movement called, the excellence of the day, where everyone share it.
I like that!!! 😎 #BAR ✊🏾
Thousand 💯
Yes! harlemstorm@soundcloud.com
amigo, lo mas lejos que tenia era encontrarte por aqui. Respecto a tu comentario tienes toda la razón, aunque tu público no es tan pequeño
that's a REALLY good idea
Wow. ❤️✊🏾👑 As a Black woman, I constantly feel unseen, unappreciated, and unsupported. Thank you for shedding light on our struggles. Blessings to your Mother...she must be responsible for a great deal of your insight. I'm sharing this with everybody I know.
We see you

“ The womb is where all life begins, no world without women ”
Hard asf
D Smoke is a legend in the making and I'm glad I get to see him carve out his legacy! As a future music educator, I look forward to teaching students about music like yours sir! Keep on Keeping on!
Yesssssirr!
Facts man and he's definitely making sure that i keep myself accountable worth These wise words
F A C T S 💯
@Nick Perugini jeez man it's a great song. We're just praising the man. Why yiu being so negitive
@Nick Perugini The radio and most media platforms basically form part of the master narrative of whiteness and white supremacy so of course they are not going to play music that speaks to black women's liberation. You are being so toxic with your negativity. Your anti-black energy is not welcomed, please dont speak on issues that do not involve you and please stop spreading hate with ALL your comments. You are literally only making yourself look dumb, LOL
HE IS BRILLIANT
Favorite lyric:
"Imagine a day without women
I bet your first thought was "Who 'bout to take care of the children?"
Very much so Sis
The scariest thing I've heard in a long time
God
He said imagine god said she’s tired and took all are women just a different breed
I am speechless. From This Southern Bell Survivor Single Mother Elder Sister Moaning Daughter Warrior Cooker Business Black Woman Smile and Cursive saying Thank You for your truth help me feel you heard my blues and ought all the songs God choose you. Thanks for This Message of Truth 💖💖💖.
This has to be the most beautiful visual I’ve ever seen. “I love you so I get the least of you.” That part hit hard! From beginning to end, this is art. 🖤
He was my daughter's math teacher 2yrs ago. Very talented, much love to D-Smoke and SiR.
🤯 very lucky.
Dang he good at math too? Just when I thought he couldn't get any finer.
Beautiful. In a world that takes pride in bashing Black women I'm so appreciative of you uplifting us, all that we do, and the burden we carry. Thank you for this ♥️
czcams.com/video/FDiXRPeUkK8/video.html
You speak so beautifully about black women in your music. I'm Mexican but I love to see it! Keep empowering yours
Love this from you Sister. May the same be for you from yours.🎉
Not saying he needs it as confirmation for his greatness because that’s already evident but kindly give him his NAACP, his BET, His Grammy, his Billboard and whatever else so that a larger platform can appreciate his work.
It will take time but he will get it his music will make their ways
This is artistry that engages the soul. I love this song and this man. My God protect this brother D Smoke! 🙏🏾💜💜
czcams.com/video/FDiXRPeUkK8/video.html
Who is your God? We are the Gods of this planet. and if he doin good... why he need protection. 🔫? Only protection we have against “ “ is us. We lack unity and far as my experience as a good God goes. Our Women and women as a whole... their government (not ours) is our enemies..Its no God outside of you. We all we have. God is love. Love save us.
Yes!
Brother D Smoke? Haha😅
@@dadedon305 facts bro 😎
They acted out Nikki Giovani and James Baldwin interview. Cool to see.
I didn't know who these people were... thanks for sharing of this knowledge... I had to look it up
Right
I noticed that! loved it. b/c the actors nailed it!!
Role models.
He even looked like Baldwin
This......
Is genius.
All of it, not one thing is flawed. It is literally PERFECT. Pure art. This is art.
That opening conversation was Nikki Giovanni and James Baldwin. So powerful how D Smoke just knows it's time... the Age of Aquarius is here and nothing can stop it.

D smoke a 🐐 no soul selling here
I been rooting for this guy since I seen him on the nexflix special and won the competition. When I heard him rap in Spanish I knew he was truth. Latinos rooting for you brother!🔥🔥🔥🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🐐🐐🐐
Agreed
n central asians ova yeeyah!!!
as a filmmaker this cinematography is just one of the best cinematography in music videos industry, pure art !!💙🖤
Okay that intro had me in my feelings...then the rest of the lyrics, like bullets punching holes in the body, mind, and soul. When you been taught there are no excuses.
I'd like to thank our black women for ALL that you do, and I will work and also encourage others to lift and support you as you've done for us.
Thank you D Smoke for using your influence to shift the minds and culture of our community in a direction of growth.
thas was up

Wow...
Stop saying D smoke is gonna be the next kendrick, give him his own identidy, not a borrowed one
Lannaleah exactly and he’s so different from kendrick too
Because in truth we need them all, J cole ,Ken, Tobe, they all warriors and we need each one of them.

Sounds ridiculous
So very true so very very true
@Nick Perugini This song is about educating and appreciating black women and it's interesting to see what you have taken away from it. Please don't comment if you don't have anything valuable to say. Peace and Light
@Nick Perugini if he sounds like a person on crack. I'm guessing you know some crackheads. Also, I don't really know what you listen to but you need to learn to listen to some good music. ❤️
I love it. Please keep making music that centers black people- the children, women, and men. I'm so proud to be a Black woman and I am so proud of you as a Black man. My people are so dope.

As an elder.. this made me cry tears of honor..this King gets it!!!!!🖤💞🖤 #imaginenoblackwoman
It’s unfair how one person alone can carry this much talent inside him..
Wow!!!
This is real music 🎶 Hope he wins a Grammy one day
Screw the Grammys, our world needs to change.
Very powerful lyrics, production and sound. The washing of the women black feet... like in the Bible a women gave all her beautiful perfumes ( aroma) gave all she had to wash Jesus feet! Wow I see so much in this video... just all the stories... this had me in tears because today we still are living in this. D smoke always voicing the TRUTH!

This has me in tears...still does...we pray for our men, worry, support but we do it for love not recognition. This is beautiful simply beautiful and thank you from the bottom of my heart for it ❤️❤️❤️
Intro]
Hmm
[Verse 1]
Imagine a day without women (Women)
I bet your first thought was "Who 'bout to take care of the children?" (Children)
That's just like us, placin' all of their value in rearin'
Lil' versions of our imperfect hearts on the surface
Hard to work with soft at the core, won't explore past traumas, just to make sure he could be a good father (Yeah)
Imagine they missin' from starter (Starter)
We stuck in predicament that we can't fix with our wallets
Now we must deal with our garbage, baggage
Imaginе a world with no magic (No magic)
It must be so apocalyptic (Yeah)
Ain't no colder prеdicament (Yeah)
Imagine God, say she sick of it
And took all our women
[Chorus]
(This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)
The rapture
(This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)
[Verse 2]
Imagine a world with no flowers (Oh)
Imagine all sand but no beach, no sweet only sour
No leaves on the trees, zero oxygen, I can't breathe, I believe
Heroes often wear my [?] prophets, then prophesize of this day, ain't believe 'em
Just like a nigga that think she won't leave him
Blink of an eye, you went to the sky
I know you see him lookin' down, ain't you disappointed?
It took this fast to get the point and
Took a picture, then disappear, missin' mornings
With you wakin' up next to me
Breakfast in bed, should've did that more regularly
Bacon and eggs, be the least we could to show you we appreciate you but it's too late
Heaven got you in your true state
Listen here to what the fool say when you're gone
[Chorus]
(This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)
The rapture
(This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)
[Verse 3]
Imagine you was only dreamin' (Yeah)
Imagine you wakin' up, holdin' and squeezin' the show
Wonder just how you feel in every moment
Knowin' that she could be gone and Heaven's home to all of the children (Yeah)
After that vision I'm willin' to listen
After that sentence to an existence without passion, I'd risk it all to give it all right back to a woman
Can't turn our backs on the women
Do more than chill and relax on a woman
Secure you the bag, and invest the stashed
Lil' boy gon' be man, can't place a tag
With a price on a life, with the right woman
Ike with the right, try to fight women
Die, nigga die if you strike women (Yeah)
I question if you even like women (Yeah)
Your breath could leave you in a second, nigga
Real niggas lay down, protectin' women
Still recognize that I ain't perfect, got a dozen thanks to her
And cause stress for the women
God bless 'em
Life served me hard lessons (Hard lessons)
Just keep in mind this season time ends
The womb is where all life begins, no world without women
[Chorus]
(This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you
This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)
The rapture
(This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)

I see a Grammy in his future
Guranteed 👏🏾👏🏾
Yeahhh
They will never give a grammy for our brothers who fight for black people and womens !!!!
Grammy nominated now we need that W 🙏🏿
Now he's NOMINATED‼️‼️‼️
The amazing thing is that his music videos have so much depth and it feels like an entirely new and independent project which is focussed on even more elaborate storytelling. Crazy hard work and dedication. Even after 20 years or more, we will come back and submerge ourselves into these masterpieces which are indeed independent of the time they were made in. Humbleness, honesty and truth is striking out. Truly blessed to hear, see and feel pure art from this master storyteller.
Can’t turn our backs on our women 💪🏿💯🔥
yessir
Facts
if you can’t support your women, how can you call yourself a man!
this would apply to my community as yours no dis
This is beautiful and artistic. Focusing on black women and hitting some great points. Black women are incredible! I hate that allot of people expect bw to be strong and protect others. We need to protect, help and uplift black women.
This song reminds me of Tupac's Keep Ya Head Up

He was a spanish and music recording teacher
This is....simply touching. I feel as if this is an ODE to Black Women. We are truly undesired in the eyes of society unless it’s for pleasure filled benefits. Thank you King. Truly. ❤️
Wow am speechless! Totally! The talent this guy possess is out of this world! Please do NOT stop D Smoke #love 🇿🇦🎆🎆
D Smoke speak nothing but TRUTH. He is what music needs! Keep rising King!
He is the answer to society’s problem. Hands to god, D Smoke the most influential ,inspiring rapper I’ve ever laid eyes on

Props to Dsmoke and the team for not just putting out a dope music but a bad ass music video as well. Legit fire! 🔥

Everybody has to vote for this guy at the Grammys he has to win one bro vote for d smoke
Omg!!!! This!!!! D Smoke, you have a powerful gift on your life. Those times that you feel like giving up, don’t! Those times when you feel like what you say does not matter, it does! You really don’t understand how many lives you touch with what God has placed on the inside of you. Keep going!
You are an innovator, a way-shower, a hidden truth revealer. What your talent can create is limited only by your vision. I look forward to your continued evolution.

DSMOKE IS AN UPCOMING KENDRICK LAMAR. HE KNOWS HOW TO CARRY A BEAT🔥🔥🔥🔥
Definitely does
But he is not the upcoming Kendrick tho. He is in his own right, a legend in the making. Kendrick is younger than him as well lol
He’s his own person
Know you mean this as a compliment
Smh Allow this man to be his own person. He’s the one and only D’Smoke.
YES!!!!! D SMOKE!!!! That intro was genius! Shout out to the Nikki Giovanni and James Baldwin interview replay from back in the day!!!!!! I've seen this video many times and just caught this! Wow... if you don't know, now you know!
I swear i said this a few times to my ex.
Show me the same respect you show your boss, your parole officer, the cops who pull you over.
I'm suppose to be your safe haven and I'm who to release the worlds pressure on and its not fair. As much as i adore my Black Kings I've got comfortable with being alone. 😔
An underrated lyrical genius!
One thing said or reapeated a million time, becomes true,
so everyday artist should put black pride up and reapeat
we love us just as we are and look.
So we cure ourselves from the hate they put on us. we are amazing, a million time said.
That James Baldwin homage at the beginning gave me life. Superbly crafted song and video. Par for the course for D Smoke.
God sent this man to remind black men how you love and protect us... We fed, nurse, school, love, teach, pray, fight for you and with you. Thank you for the reminder that men like this still exist 💋💋💋💋💋
If you didnt feel this your heartless. This is what I'm talking about this is REAL MUSIC. THIS IS A LYRICST
I don't even like rap music. But songs like these are changing my perspective. Great work Dsmoke. Sending mad love from Liberia 🇱🇷
I'm so glad I decided to follow this man's work after the competition. He's hands down amazing! I would definitely love a Kendrik collab. Everyone says this too so I know many wanna see this happen.
So much talent in this King🙏🏾💖💖 The Most High bless you up✊🏾✊🏾💯💖💖
"Imagine A Day W/Out WOmen"
It sure is a hard lesson to learn. How do we convert anger, rage & pain into love, care & affection as MeN?
D. SMoke I salute you for these visuals
This masterpiece has just silenced many guilty consciousness of these "Men" ... I approve and applaud you @Dsmoke 🙏🏽🔥❤

D smoke back ✊🏾 Beautiful representation of our queens. Love you brother... Forever powerful
This just hit different.. I want to cry and smile at the same time. Just beautiful Smoke, I appreciate your art King 💕..
Amazing to see a man communicate such a message. Its really up to us now to charge and do better by our women. Lets raise the future ❤
Why is this man not mainstream even after all he has accomplished? This message right here on taking care of women should be heard around the globe.

Your artistry is unmatched. Your craft is truly phenomenal and so rare. Please don’t ever stop making music. You are God sent, and I truly believe you are here to make waves in our generation. Sorry if I sound cheesy but my essence is shaking from watching this. I knew you were different after watching you in Rhythm and Flow. You have a gift and you’re going to move mountains!
D Smoke is taking conscious rap to another level, this feel like art
He give me hope that there is REAL men that appreciate women of my kind in the world 🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👑💯

Respect and protect black woman we must.
This is my mother's favorite song and reminds me of her strength. Going to see this brotha in Detroit.
Since he won rythm and flow he just keeps on improving song after song hit like button if u wanna see him in a feature with j cole or dababy....
Improving? Nah he's been this nice since jump street.
@@Smitty089 He is improving bruh he ain't an elite rapper yet but close...with time he will blow up ...to likes of kendrick , j cole...and the likes...
@@vincentmutua8563 He's definitely elite. Just because you haven't reached Kendrick/Cole numbers, does not define you as an elite rapper.
@@Danny-hx4vf exactly 👌🏾
You tripping when you mention dababy
