I'm convinced that Brother Ali is the nicest human being alive.
how he responded to mikes questions.. yes
Brother Ali is a good man with an important message
Dope music awesome poet powerful Cool good Listen wow
I was a young know nothing when I heard “Uncle Sam, goddamn” I still don’t know much but learned I was a history fan and hated the lack of knowledge from all my teachers.
yo i really like this dude..intelligent, down to earth, seems to know how to respect people..the top three things on my list of what a human being is supposed to be like
Brother ali always leaves my eyes teary and my brain filled with thoughts. I love this man, his music, his heart and his legacy. One of a kind!
Too much of life is surrounding ourselves with people who are exactly like us. If Brother Ali isn't like you---and he pretty much can't be unless you're a blind, Albino, Muslim rapper from Minnesota---then expand your horizons and hear what his view is. You won't be diminished from listening to others; your brain doesn't shrink from injecting other ideas. It's sad for me to read how comments dissect people up. We don't need to do that to each other---especially not after watching such a respectful and enlightening interview like this. "You're not using your heart for what hearts are for."
There is 99types of Muslims..
Too many hypocrites are out there😏
This is a beautiful comment. Keep shining that positive light.
"im not interested in beating them at their own game or out deviling the devil" dude...... i dont even know how to say how much impact those words just had
This is the most beautiful interview known to man. Sway, Brother Ali.....
Brother Ali, always has a great message and amazing stories intertwined in his lyrics. Keep killing it, and spreading your knowledge and wisdom.
Brother Ali is hands down one of the most beautiful people I’ve ever met. He walks into a room and radiates energy.
not many rappers left spitting real life experiences. salute brother ali
I'm a christian and I believe in Ali's message.
Zach Hodge what does religion have to do with basic logic
I'm an Atheist and agree with his message. Religion has nothing to do with it. It is common human decency.
Zach Hodge what aspect of it? Trump being a devil?
TannerLewis this is not "basic" this is an "elevated" form of thinking
I say this because of what is going on between Christians and Muslims. The hate that is spoken by some of one faith toward another faith. Half of this interview was about Muslims how does religion have nothing to with it?
Brother Ali is THE TRUTH!!!!
Trevor Foster the truth is here the truth is here the truth is here the truth is here the truth is here the truth is here
Trevor Foster
the truth is in christ... not Allah...
Bruce Lee actually both are fake
Yo Lo
lo.. yo...
you definitely need to be saved..
I can't help you find truth or God if you deny what you don't know...
good luck and God bless
Hes saying nobody's ancestors lived off the back of slaves except America.. and lists places like Africa and Asia as examples of places who didn't flourish off the back of slavery.. Damn man that is just not factual, Africa has practiced slavery for thousands of years and STILL TIL THIS DAY enslave their own people.. the Pygmy people of the Congo are still enslaved now by other Africans and Africans were enslaved by other Africans when they were first sold to brazilians then europeans.. so don't give me this shit about everyone is innocent except Americans.. You begin to just sound extremely ignorant to any historically informed person when you start to talk like that. And i only gave one example, you can look toward the history of the Moors enslaving whites, asians and hispanics for nearly 1000 years straight as well.. wake up and stop blaming everyone except yourself or nothing will change
Brother Ali is such a beautiful human being. Restores the faith in humanity. PEACE : )

First time I have had the pleasure of listening to Brother Ali’s interview. What a decent human being. He mentioned that one of his teachers is Umar Farooq Abdullah. It shows! Shaikh Umar Farooq Abdullah is an amazing, amazing personality - truly one of a kind. May Allah protect them and bless them both.

Had the pleasure of meeting the good Brother last year after his set, and he was every bit as humble and welcoming in person as he comes across in his music and media.
Allah Allah...beautiful soul. May Allah preserve you Brother Ali for His cause ameen. It is a blessing to see your growth, please know you are teaching us much. Allah made you in your unique fashion for a purpose. May you always live your purpose, ameen.

He just wanted to make it easier for people that wants to go directly to the song.
Erin Boylan Haha I thought I read freestyle in the title. My bad. I guess people are lazy these days.
+Erin Boylan please don't make grandiose statements about the world based on a CZcams comment.... lmao
Erin Boylan more likely it's because it's cheaper and quicker lol, plenty of healthier food tastes good.
yo I used to listen to this folk. maannn goiood to see brotha Ali back.
Hell yeah. ...love Brother Ali
Masha'llah, this brother is so on point. God willing, Allah will continue to sharpen and mature us all who are willing to be molded by Al Hayy. Insha'llah I will be a better man tomorrow than I am today. Brother Ali, I'm thankful that there are people like you to be examples for right living and staying in the adab with those around us. I know not to put people up on a pedestal, but it's pretty clear that even if you are to stumble, your intent is honorable.
love and blessings,
Assalamu'alaykum wa rahmatu'llah wa barakatu
Love Brother Ali.. He's a beautiful soul.
damn sway, threw the brotha off with the actual song he was ready for a live performance not having to do it just like his track

Dope interview
Sway’s opening statements pretty much summed it up!
Thank you brother All
Glad to know this brother
I wish every artist was like him in real life. .... always down to earth and humble
All Love to Brother Ali........we can not agree on everything, but that's just cause the meeting of the minds brings that type of elevation to us. We ALL will have to deal with this life or your life you live and your environment. Give Truth to those around you, because we need to be that city on a hill that shines bright, we can't just keep it for ourselves, we all need to know, God Bless the World, I love you all out there , even if I don't know you personally.

I don't have any ties to religion. But I certainly respect and feel so much from the empowering words, the vibe, and emotions of Brother Ali..
Ours are the cries that breathe life in the concrete
Ours are the tears that splash genius at God's feet
Ours are the prayers that weave poetry through drum beats
Victory
Pure poetry
Uncle Usi Taught Me has been one of my favorite songs for a while now. I love this performance of his and the interview before. The man can really talk but at least what hes saying is interesting to me and I loved the question that I knew was about Uncle Usi and the answer was so good especially how he started it saying it was a hard question
beautiful brother
TRUTH IS SPIRITUAL AND OUR FATHER CREATOR ALMIGHTY CAN USE ANY BODY.
