Deep Song On Of My Favs From KINGDOM COME Somebody Needed 2 Address Katrina On A Mainstream Scale And Who Better Than The Prez Of Hip-Hop S.Carter.

i was loved the song and im feelin the video HOV

jay z did his thing on this one...in hip hop u gotta be versatile....if u cant appeal to more than one fan base u cant survive...im like that nas blood diamonds video too

correction...i not im

this is real talk and good shit however we needed this way sooner not years later im not taking away any credit just saying

video was hot....why was the shit so short though??

The video was short because Neyo wasn't on it. The song IMO sounded better with Neyo.

Pusha - I think it was something like a Pulic Service Announcement(PSA) for black history month. That's just a guess.

That is my favorite song on the album, because it has a !MESSAGE! something jim jones dont and will never have!! HOVVVV!!!

what does he do for poor people ? nothing. Then he should stop making money with their stories.

Karlito: this cat has a foundation set up in Africa to help fix the water situation. You have Africans drinking the same water they shit in. People like him and others do more for poor people than me and you.

what does he do for poor people ? nothing. Then he should stop making money with their stories.

THAT HAS TO BE THE DUMBEST MOST UNINFORMED STATEMENT OF THE NEW YEAR. IT PROBALLY WON'T BE HIS LAST. KARLITO YOU DESERVE THE JUST SHUT UP AWARD.

Aimed At Carlito - Did You See Jay-z On MTV Over In Africa, Installing The Water Pump For The Little Kids That Have No Water To Live Off Of, People Like Jay-z & Diddy Do A Lot More For The Poor Then You Think...

This Video Was Hot, Jay-z Definately Killed This, Great Message

This is how you know who the real MCs are.

Karlito needs to do research B4 he opens his mouth...what does he do for poor people??? ask columbine..ask the victims of 911 ask the new york city board of education ask the village's he brought clean water to in africa you fucking muck muck..you a hatter! eat a dick bitch.. and then you be the same dick rider saying jim jones is nice or who ever the fuck you like...I dont see none of those ballersssss doing shit so get ya facts straight fag... Jay is always the 1st rapper to help

The boi HOV Happy to see I read this and see no bad comments about the god Mc, thats how it should be, ya'll know im a ROC fan by my pic and all but, this what makes hov so nice, hes alble to strecth his lyrical abilitys and actually make sense about an actually important topic, and its still a hot song, if you don't got that Kingdom Come go pick it up, straight FIRE from my nigga jigga. Skillz signing out

THE JUST SHUT UP award lmao, yeah you need that my dude, and everyone is right you obvisouly didn't know about him going to africa and suppliy villiage"s" with clean water to drink. Not to mant people in the rap game can do that, my nigga diddy can pull it off, but hes stingy, but anyway its limited. This doesn't have anything to do with this topic but if the dips is ballin? why can't they do it? they is ballin on a fisher price basketball hoop my niggas.

First, I don't know you, don't talk to me like that. When you're rich like he is, giving water to african, it's like me giving one dollar to a poor but you're not saying "yo karlito ! I love you nigga !!! You're the best". Look what's his situation, what's his power, imagine all he could do for the dirty hood, he's doing nothing. All he's doing is "represent", but family in the hood don't need your representation, they need schools, they need jobs, they need welfares. When you're coming from the hood, buy a diamond chain"s", big cars, big houses, it's forget where you're comin from.

Deenyce, please be a lil'more clever then that, I didn't mention Jim Jones, what's your problem with jim jones ??? I never said that Jim Jones was better. Read what I wrote. Jim jones is just like all other rappers and like Jay-z.

You really believe giving clean water to Africans is the same as you giving a dollar to a nigga on the corner. I understand what your trying to say but I feel you picked the wrong rapper to aim your opinion at. Jay gives his dollars to the hood. Maybe what he does is not to your approval. This country we live in is one of very few that you can come from nothing and make a life for you and yours. There are places in America for homeless people to sleep, get food and get some form of help. They don't drink the water they shit in.

By no means am I saying shit is perfect in America and we don't have serious problems in the inner cities but there are people in this world that have it far worse than we caould ever imagine.

If we start talking about politics, it will never end. But one word, you're right when you're talkin about the famous "american dream". But there are more American Nightmares. Do you think it's normal that Cuba has a better rate of elimination of illiteracy than Usa, a better infant mortality rate, ... To me it isn't.

well karlito, you should at least give jigga credit for setting an example by doing something for the less fortunate people...He cannot do everything even though he 'god mc' but still look at all the greedy rappers in the game doing nothing...he gave a mil to katrina, he is installing clean water in africa, he gave money to help after 9/11, this dude has a heart....this is more than just rap man, this is doin your part for humanity.....and by the way it is not accurate to say that Cuba now has an infant mortality rate lower than the United States.....read this

I agree 100%..

Realtalk: That's some good shit you just stated. I checked that link too. You on point! It's good to see cats talking about some real life shit on this site.

All of us could do more to help others less fortunate than us. The reality is most of us don't do anything.

man this guy is the BOSS!!!! this guy lives for and through his musik...n its really sad that Kanye si the only one that voiced his opinion after katrina...

GOOD MESSAGE! SHOULDA CAME SOONER BUT ITS REAL SHIT THO.

Karlito, you seem to have some misinformation about Hov.Hov has been giving back for years, just because he not showering the hoods of America with diamonds and furs, doesn't mean he don't give back.There are too many people with there hands out for Hov to feed them all.There are many opportunities for people growing up poor to take, but many refuse to help themselves.If you stay in school, go to college, and work hard at your job, you can live at the minumum, a decent life.People in America really need to start taking responsibility for there own actions.

Also, there are many millionaires and billionaires, who don't give anything to the poor, but make millions off them in sweatshop labor,movies about them, and other things.So even if rappers like Hov didn't give a dime to the poor, how could we judge them, but not the non-Hip Hop money men.

Son jay-z iz ill

nope...anyone sounds good on a dr dre beat...look at 50 thanx to dr dre...well his 50...but he's still garbage...but i like the fact dat jay admitted not givin any money rite after katrina went thru N.O

The Real BRA(Best Rapper Alive)HOV!!

Jay got that freedom to say whatever, that was vintage HOVA, one of the most important songs by a major rap artist this year

so with all praises due HOVA, get that video in heavy rotation, smell that

@Doct P
Did you listen to the song dumb nigga?...He said he ponied up a million dollars but he didn't give his time so it was LIKE he didn't give a dime...Listen to the music dont just skim thru it...

JayZ is rediculous with it..

Yo the main reason I come back to this site aint even because it has the most up to date info(even though it does lol.. big ups to Defsounds).. its because seeing niggas get Soned(schooled) all across America in forums like this gives me pride and perspective..

Pride because I'm happy I aint that stupid and that theres dudes that think like I do and perspective because like, damn.. there are some really stupid people out here.. Or should I say.. Niggas that can't articulate what they need/want to say.. is that the Nicer way of putting it? Rhetorical question.. no need to answer.. anyways..

My opinion.. ONE

Video is hot ..shoulda had Ne-Yo in it...Dr.Dre did his shit on the beat.

Ghost lol, Dre, radamez, skillz even,
I gotta agree with yall. I'm speechless...

But I will bring up one remark about a discussion I had earlier with someone over Weezy...

I asked a simple question as to why is Jigga the one doing this when it should be Lil' Wayne and others from down there? Of course it erupted into a major debated... and in the words of Ghost... I definitely Son'd 'em lol. But still in all. It would've been nice to see Weezy doing something like this.... and if he has alreayd then that's what's up.

Keep that good stuff coming fam'

~Be Eazy!

wiz-
weezy didnt make a video but he did do a similar song its called georgia...bush. Its off dedication 2 i recommend a listen its a good track.

That was real..His lyrics is crazy.. Yall got on some political shit. I respected that.

Damn. Its hard to believe that a couple years have went by and New Orleans is basically still in the same situation it is now. If it wasn't for athelets and artists to give money to the community (those who actually care about the community) New Orleans would remain a complete ghost town. Shows how much our government cares huh?

George Bush doesnt care about Black People..

i think it takes a real man to call himself out on the song and video

"Sure I Ponied Up A Mill, But I Didn't Give My Time
So In Reality I Didn't Give A Dime, Or A Damn
I Just Put My Monies In The Hands Of The Same People That Left My People Stranded
Nothin' But A Bandit"

HOV is the greatest and hopefully hes started a much needed trend in hip hop culture.

oi people out their i feel jigga should retire man thsi shit is weak.nothin like his old stuff his in his 40's and dat man. reppin a website man called www.letsbeef.com go on it some good mc's rappers wateva u wana call them.some wack but u get that frm wiggas mostly

definitely a good track not my favorite on the album but this song like this do set him apart from Jones and the Set, not taking anything away from Dipset, both camps got their variety: deep tacks, hard shit, street shit, r&b shit,pop etc. Hov is a legend he can definitely say something on a lot of issues

this ni99a sucks...hhaha...jokin this is nice...

yeah betta be jokin............. nah this foo is all right you remessage this ok i need a friend that nos this stuff ok ok

Jay-Z is one my role models. H.O.V.A HOLLA! But on the real this is probably the track on KINGDOM COME.

dats da shit rapper needz to talk about.. not fukin alwayz money cars hoes n all blingz.. dats y hova is da best.

Hova's Not The Best But this was crack. I give it to Jay Z cuz he's not doing what everybody else does he made his own way!
