This dude is just different. I was like "flawless can rap , and has the best pen (I still think he has a great pen. he added level of artistry I to him)" but this man right here... His versatility, unique storytelling, poetic writing , beat selection, flow , is just crazy.
@@youngdrago2979 yeah I get what you mean but I personally think there in the same league but on different lanes if you feel me , flawless is more of a rapper like MC but artistry/musician is more of D Smokes lane
Joshua Ortiz also, and i might get hate for this, but flawless comes off as arrogant to me. The only song he did where he didn’t talk about himself only was with the collabs and then after that and before it was all about him making it. D Smoke connects with people and he isn’t arrogant so at the end of the day he did come out representing Inglewood
WE GREW UP ON THE WEST SIIIDE!! WEST SIIIDE!! When he yelled that shit on Rythm and Flow that shit gave me chills!! Even with the slip up the performance was dope!
You read my mind with this comment. I think Kendrick's voice is to similar to D Smoke> I think from TDE, Jay Rock would be a better fit. Another feature I think could work is Big KRIT, especially if they do the production together
God Damn I wish he nailed his performance in the show on this song. The song is a fucking vibe and he killed the first half. And even after the mess up, at the end, when he yelled "We grew up on the Westside, Westside!" Shit just felt different.
Just watched the show for the 3rd time and D Smoke is truly a work of art. Genuine. Humble. Creative. Cultured. Aware. Mindful. Gifted. He’s a true rarity.
The best part is that it’s really easy for him to get in touch with him since his brother is signed to TDE and he has met Kendrick, Ab Soul, ScHoolboy Q and all the other members.
This song hits that place in your heart that you forgot was there. No I’m not from LA but I as m from a place called Chicago where little boy grow up trying to make sense of everything going on around them. From Childhood to Fatherhood, I still release tears and this song did that for me. D Smoke about to paint some beautiful pictures. ✊🏾♥️👑
He brought understanding tears and years to my eyes. To understand what a human goes through is to understand yourself. A gift is beyond his words, it’s more like a destined journey that he was meant to go on. His voice helps the heart know that it’s not just us going through real shit💯
Single-handedly the sneakiest hallmark of that show was the use of this sample. D Smoke is incredible and the producer put this together perfectly. I'll be listening to this forever.
You understood him just fine, why d'you have to be such an ass about it? It's a comment on youtube not a goddam article. Also you should learn about linguistics. Language is ever changing.
...look I'm almost 50 ..never really liked rap, just certain rap artist.. Busta, Tupac, Big Poppa, The Roots, Common etc... but this guy here has just been added to my list! Phenomenal Brotha!🔥🔥🔥
Incredibly gifted You can't beat me with a baseball bat I'm from a place where you better be different These niggas aiming at your baseball hat Put extra holes in your letterman sixes Niggas retire out the streets with no medals But they medal left veterans lifted I'm a king in my checkers a missus checking for change in my pocket I got babies at home and they ain't feeding they self Bank ain't making no loans to black man It's 1987 so that crack jam So my habit make my cash do a tap dance Hand to hand exchanges Got me high as fuck now I'm eager and dangerous I could stack it up if I just hit a couple licks I ain't no bitch but if I get caught I'm sure gone miss it When the kids pull up When the kids pull up [Chorus] We grew up on the west-side, west-side I'm just tryna live my best life, ya damn right Til the kids pull up [Verse 2] Grandma cooking the kitchen looking a mess Reminiscing knowing you blessed In the vision guiding you I smell violets and violence Sugar and silence Making melodies and beats out of bullets and sirens Wiping boogers on Darrel back and Davion is smiling Baby how I'm supposed to feed y'all up in this wild asylum Go outside and play a little Grass stains on my jeans, ya'll boss(?) so they scratching up my face a little Faith in little things like candy rings and skittles give it to my crush and all I hope is that she be open to play a little Save a little for tomorrow cuz when the lights come on we borrowing time Like watching angels age a little Say a little prayer Before I go to bed, thankful for my mom every night about my head How she fill that void when pops was in the feds And her only concern was that her sons will never scare When the kids pull up When the kids pull up [Chorus] We grew up on the west-side, west-side I'm just tryna live my best life, ya damn right Til the kids pull up [Outro] Til the kids pull up
This guy did not disappoint in every contest. I see big things for D Smoke. Reminds me of a Kendrick Lamar vibe with his change in tone in his rapping.
i love the way he crafts his lyrics the into an art form that's satisfying to the ear, relatable, and unique asf. we need more artists like him who can speak of universal issues and have us bopping to their music at the same time.
When I found out that this is Sir’s brother.. I was like ayeee. We got siblings. I’m here for that. Glad I came across this man. He’s beautiful and love his hair.
Shit just plain fire no exceptions. The way they flipped the sample was brilliant. And the chorus was monster. Gets mad play in the ride ( Menace 2 Society)
My 3 year old heard me play this a few times, I had to leave for a month, and a month of not hearing this song, he has started saying in a lower voice "When the kids pull up" lmfao. D Smoke is the shit. He's got an effect on my toddler lmao. great song!
Once I heard this song I knew d smoke was gonna win.
alex faxts
Big facts
Wrd up felt it when he performed it
alex bro same. I’m happy af
Real shit
Real talk they lucky he didn't get his whole verse in cause they would have had to shut the show down..
He would've gotten the check on the spot if he did the whole song
will castleberry lmao you is right baby on the most high
will castleberry he did shut down the whole show, they’d have just cancelled the episode if he got that second verse out
Oh my God! Yes! This shxt was going to be SOOOOOO FIRE! I was sick he didn’t get through it! Was definitely my favorite!
I swear!
I see d smoke, jcole and Kendrick on a collab
LITERALLY A DREAM and add Chance in that for some of that Chicago flavor
That’d be a lyrical dream come true
Fire.
I can hear Cole and Kendrick on THIS.
The problem is kdot and cole aint collaborating so it prolly won't happen
This dude is just different. I was like "flawless can rap , and has the best pen (I still think he has a great pen. he added level of artistry I to him)" but this man right here... His versatility, unique storytelling, poetic writing , beat selection, flow , is just crazy.
That's exactly how I feel
Nah flawless is good but you dont put 50cent in the same league as Pac you get what im saying?
@@youngdrago2979 yeah I get what you mean but I personally think there in the same league but on different lanes if you feel me , flawless is more of a rapper like MC but artistry/musician is more of D Smokes lane

Thias176 so because he has a similar voice to k dot he’s not different? Your logic is concerning
“Making melodies and beats out of bullets and sirens” dear god 🔥
Corey Brennen I was like GOD DAMN !!!!!! He gonna win
Best bar out the whole show
Corey Brennen “I smell violets in violence, sugar in silence...........” bruh I just smashed my phone
Part gave me goose bumps fam
🔥🔥
Real talk it's what we do especially here in Cali.
When he got the chorus at the end in the show, chills dawg
Agreed.. like, I love the real song, but the performance moves me way more
Yup!
messed up the 2nd and still better than all other contestants songs
@@BrandNameLessby a landslide too bro. haven’t finished the show yet but he’s one of the most talented & versatile artists i’ve eva seen tbh
Its criminal how many times I've played this......
Anyone else guilty as I am? 🙋🏾♂️
Rashid LK I swear to god I have to listen to it at least 14 times a day
Hell, the day I stop liking this song check up on me I won't be right in the mind
Guilty!
Not at all..I'm your Co-D
YUP! 🙋🏻♀️
So glad I found a full version with a second verse

WE GREW UP ON THE WEST SIIIDE!! WEST SIIIDE!! When he yelled that shit on Rythm and Flow that shit gave me chills!! Even with the slip up the performance was dope!

I was on a mission to find this.
docdaatlien no cap
Also facts...

Facts....
Facts
Chance trash
I say Kendrick instead of chance. Inglewood + Compton
You read my mind with this comment. I think Kendrick's voice is to similar to D Smoke> I think from TDE, Jay Rock would be a better fit. Another feature I think could work is Big KRIT, especially if they do the production together
God Damn I wish he nailed his performance in the show on this song. The song is a fucking vibe and he killed the first half. And even after the mess up, at the end, when he yelled "We grew up on the Westside, Westside!" Shit just felt different.
Just watched the show for the 3rd time and D Smoke is truly a work of art. Genuine. Humble. Creative. Cultured. Aware. Mindful. Gifted. He’s a true rarity.
Him and Kendrick should collab imagine 🤯🤯🤯
I don’t think my phone could take that heat
ROMMEL oh lord 😩😧
Add J. Cole
That’d be amazing
The best part is that it’s really easy for him to get in touch with him since his brother is signed to TDE and he has met Kendrick, Ab Soul, ScHoolboy Q and all the other members.
I didn't need to see his last performance to know he won. When T.I. said he fucked up his verse and still had the best performance...I knew he won
This song gave me chills in rhythm and flow
This is insane, literally so beautifully written.
This def a vibe. Let the windows down and roll out
What a musical genius. He was destined to be great. His chance came a little late. Better late than never. Can’t wait for him to blow up on Hip Hop
Man, when he first came to the hook I started crying. 😅 This guy is great. Feel you bro
Dude I did the same shit! My girlfriend laughing at me 😂😂
The fact y’all real enough to admit that shows this man’s music is a whole vibe 💯
If you came up in the hood and knew what went down when *THE KIDS PULL UP it's emotional
That's what REAL music will make u do!! 🎶🎶🎶
when the kids pull up ft j cole
THANKS FOR 259 likes guys much appreciated
Durag Inc 👍🏽
I have reviewed the suggestion of a collaboration within your comment and I approve 👍.
Or Kendrick
Definitely
Definitely need to be Kendrick this a west coast track🔥but jcole collab would also be fire

The use of that sample was amazingggg!!!
Single-handedly the sneakiest hallmark of that show was the use of this sample. D Smoke is incredible and the producer put this together perfectly. I'll be listening to this forever.
2022... still waiting for Smoke to put this fire on another streaming platform
They lucky he ain't finish this track we would've went straight to the finally episode
You definitely insulted
You understood him just fine, why d'you have to be such an ass about it? It's a comment on youtube not a goddam article. Also you should learn about linguistics. Language is ever changing.
@@Astropleb i like how you "corrected his grammer" and still got the sentence wrong. You need to educate yourself
STILL WAITING FOR HIM TO DROP THIS ON MUSIC PLATFORMS
PLS RELEASE THIS ON SPOTIFY!!
"We borrowing time like watching angels age a little"
He's so humble and intellectual, I was rooting for him to win and I'm so fucking happy he did.
he’s sooo smooth & normally i don’t even really check for this kind of music but god damnnn
...look I'm almost 50 ..never really liked rap, just certain rap artist.. Busta, Tupac, Big Poppa, The Roots, Common etc... but this guy here has just been added to my list! Phenomenal Brotha!🔥🔥🔥
yess ! He's a breath of fresh air in today's mumbled so called rap music!
40 and everything else matches for me
Was looking for this wit so much determination and perseverance. Did not disappoint
This track is so clean. His voice and cadence is all over this track.
Dude is giving me major early Kendrick vibes!!! Knew this was fire when he messed up, and I was so bopping!
I came here for that second verse 🔥🔥🔥
"Making melodies and beats out of bullets and sirens"damnnn👏👏👏
I won’t rest in any kind of peace untill this is on Spotify
I can hear k dot in his voice but Nipsey in the way he speaks
Big facts
cali
So happy to hear the 2nd verse finally.
Not to mention this sample selection was
🔥 🔥🔥🔥
I haven't listened to hip hop for a minute but I can't stop replaying this for a week now. We need more genuine artists like this nowadays.
this shit is so good. he’s so talented, an amazing lyricist.
Hearing this song made me wish that I too grew up on the west side
107 dislikes come from those who never dealt with adversity. This brother gave that show a future🔥🔥🔥
Kids are the future of mankind. Respect and love our home for future generations.
Incredibly gifted
You can't beat me with a baseball bat
I'm from a place where you better be different
These niggas aiming at your baseball hat
Put extra holes in your letterman sixes
Niggas retire out the streets with no medals
But they medal left veterans lifted
I'm a king in my checkers a missus checking for change in my pocket
I got babies at home and they ain't feeding they self
Bank ain't making no loans to black man
It's 1987 so that crack jam
So my habit make my cash do a tap dance
Hand to hand exchanges
Got me high as fuck now I'm eager and dangerous
I could stack it up if I just hit a couple licks
I ain't no bitch but if I get caught I'm sure gone miss it
When the kids pull up
When the kids pull up
[Chorus]
We grew up on the west-side, west-side
I'm just tryna live my best life, ya damn right
Til the kids pull up
[Verse 2]
Grandma cooking the kitchen looking a mess
Reminiscing knowing you blessed
In the vision guiding you
I smell violets and violence
Sugar and silence
Making melodies and beats out of bullets and sirens
Wiping boogers on Darrel back and Davion is smiling
Baby how I'm supposed to feed y'all up in this wild asylum
Go outside and play a little
Grass stains on my jeans, ya'll boss(?) so they scratching up my face a little
Faith in little things like candy rings and skittles give it to my crush and all I hope is that she be open to play a little
Save a little for tomorrow cuz when the lights come on we borrowing time
Like watching angels age a little
Say a little prayer
Before I go to bed, thankful for my mom every night about my head
How she fill that void when pops was in the feds
And her only concern was that her sons will never scare
When the kids pull up
When the kids pull up
[Chorus]
We grew up on the west-side, west-side
I'm just tryna live my best life, ya damn right
Til the kids pull up
[Outro]
Til the kids pull up
I'm so happy I got to hear this in its fullest he was a winner from the first audition.
Love this guy feels like we got our generation back from the 90s ....real hip hop Shit
This guy did not disappoint in every contest. I see big things for D Smoke. Reminds me of a Kendrick Lamar vibe with his change in tone in his rapping.

i love the way he crafts his lyrics the into an art form that's satisfying to the ear, relatable, and unique asf. we need more artists like him who can speak of universal issues and have us bopping to their music at the same time.
That missing 2nd verse was the thing I’d been waiting for my whole life
Who else felt like they should have let Dsmoke get a redo? 🔥🔥 I was so hurt when he forgot them lyrics
When I found out that this is Sir’s brother.. I was like ayeee. We got siblings. I’m here for that. Glad I came across this man. He’s beautiful and love his hair.
I can listen to this song 10 years from now and never get tired of it
