Good on you!!! It's a shame some people blame others because of their skin colour, yea I'm white but I thought your video put the point across really well and I really do feel for others, and couldn't give a xxxx about what some ignorant people have commented irrespective of colour,creed or relegion here. Hope you make it big time and end up with a wondrful life in the future!
PPL~iz it so hard 2 look at *RELATED* OR *MORE FROM THIS USER* 2 find the music video that says, BEHEARD: Common on "A DREAM" or Common "A DREAM" Music video
i agree with mrkwayzee. the sad thing is MTV is like everyone else, probobly worse, they just want to make money and they think that if they apear sympathetic to black people (a large proportion of the music comunity) that theyll make more of it. its logical.
i beleive in alot of the shit they say and i think its great, but itd be better if it was heart felt.
Wow... does everyone need to be given a victim badge to be interesting? This is so shallow and artificial, it makes MTV look sincere. If it's a remarkable story, tell it as it is by the people who lived it--they can manage to convey I'm sure.
people like you, with all this "there are actors" shit really need to shut up. they might be actors, they might not. but does it matter? it happens in real life, that`s the point.
I Definitely Agree - The Easiest (And Best) Way To Get Out What You're Feeling Is To Write It Down. Well, I'm Too Lazy To Write, But I Type In My Blog Everyday, And It's Just A Really Great Way To Express Yourself And Get Out Your Thoughts And Feelings.
hello jason, you were right, i believe some young people will listen, and turn for the better. i enjoyed your video.i'll be talking with you tomorrow about the photo, did you fax what i told u? 916 --- 0877 sacramento, ca.
I keep getting messages that someone has commented but no comments here, maybe because I said I have a rural use gun permit passed the course, ride horses, work very hard, am working poor, environmentalist, I play guitar, don't sing about guns though, music is good for the soul. It is the universal language of the soul. I like music that makes me want to dance or soothes me,not music that is about anatomy, or nicknames for other kinds of people, is intelligent discussion allowed in here?
A lot of well meaning people are saying that poor people shouldn't dream of being artists, that they should dream of being engineers. Well, there are a lot who do just that, and they tend to get scholarships and whatnot, which is good. Not everyone dreams of that, though. Some people mess up, and do what they can to right their situation. Dreaming big about being positive is a step toward getting onto the right track.
2/2 All the Beheard videos are. Im not a fan of rap, im more of a rock chick myself, and im also a white 22 year old woman from england. But thats the magic of it all. We are all unique and need to learn to live together. I believe that one day that will happen and thats enough to make me smile :D
1/2 Nyx, the greek goddess of night, daughter of Chaos spawned the 3 fates, death, stife and pain. She was a veil of dark mist drawn forth from the underworld which blotted out the light. We all need to lift that mist. I think some people that have posted a comment on this video need to read the message i, and the video, are trying to convey here. Life is poetic. The video was lovely.
You choose to be naked, you choose to have clothes on. Nobody can tell you to really do that stuff. Womens are not pieces of meat in Rap videos. Just dont think that way. Look at the Girl Rappers. They are cool as hell.
I still can't understand how some people actually get depressed and turn to drugs and alcohol/smoking.
I've had the most crappiest things happen to me in the course of 3 years and I'm still fine and dandy. Must be the strong family around me. Hasn't even actually impacted us that much.
The point is, move to another neighbourhood if you have to, to get away from all the crap.
We all just need to get along people, this will help a lot of us. We all can, and need to work together to make this a better place to live for everyone.
be heard, u have really inspired some interesting talks, and that is awesome its great to express yourself through words, instead of violence and the web is a great place for that-

MrCerebellum, I'm not sure if you were being sarcastic or not, but Jason Finn was in a movie called Mercy Street, and was also on an episode of Mad TV.
No that just isn't true. You are a slave if you are the property of another person. If you can't afford to put a roof over your head or food on the table despite working 40hrs a week you are not very smart. I work 20 hours a week and do both.
i bet you make more then minimum wage, and i'd assume you have monetary help from daddy.
you're not very intelligent if you can't wrap your rich little head around the FACT that people work - at the only places they can get a job - and still can't survive.
slavery exists, it's just hidden more then it was previously... why do you think america is so prosperous?
I do make more than minnimum wage, at leat for this country, and I don't recieve one cent or one peso from anyone exept my employers for the work I do. I do know it's a fact that there are people too stupid or incompetent to support themselves. Slavery does exist but not in America. America is very prosperous becuase some people like me work very hard and eart every cent they have. I wonder what you do you lazy stupid bastard.
So people who work and produce the goods and services that you use and couldn't produce for yourself are the problem? You are even dumber than I thought. Good Luck. If stupidity ever became a valuable comodity, you would be rich you useless little spoiled child.
sounds like you didn't have to use your A.K. - today was a good day ( just joking) .. Lets hear your tunes..hip hop has become a stereotype parody of itself and dorks like eminem are pop chart to the masses money making sellouts.
hey, im not a hater or anything but raping your hate out wont solve anything, AMERICA!! fucking ban guns, australia did, now there is like 11 gun related deaths a year, if these teenage morons couldnt get there hands on them so easily, maybe there wouldnt be so many gunshots!!??
1st, im not from USA and I dont act like if its the easiest thing ever. i myself began from 0 in a foreign country 5 years ago. It's hard but if you got education you can do it. And if in hard places in africa some kids get to be in school and get education, some people that live in NY surely can.
you should put sum of your music up man, im i musician, bin playin gat for bout 8 yrs and piano for 6mths. i just got into writing sum rap latley, fictitious stuf at the mo, but its good fun. your stuff sounds good man!
ok so a bad black guy is a gangbanger, a good black guy is a rapper or police officer why don't they encourage black kids to get a job that has noting to do with crime(doing it or fighting it) like be an engineer or programmer, oh that's right cause that will require actual intelligence and we all know Niggers are to lazy to learn math.
The misconception that you can't escape the hood is a smokescreen. Ghetto is a mentality, not a place. Life can be enjoyable if you associate yourself around positive people and be proactive in your community. As long as you associated yourself with and do the things thugs do, you'll continue to be blindfolded. Jason, you said it yourself: All it takes is "some kid somewhere [to] get motivated to change their life" I know,,, I not only lived near Jason Finn, I went to high school with him.
if all you wanted to say was that you went to high school with Jason Finn, why did you bother with that whole speech? don't you think if people could do that they would have already done it? not that I disagree with you, but so many people have the "ghetto mentality" that it's pretty much become a place.
If I understood right, I am a rich boy, and I like that kind of, huh.. way of life?
Well, I'm not american, and also I'm not hypocrite. I just think that any nation in the world would do just the same that you guys do, in their own way, but they would.
Word, I dig the Common track playing at the end. I met him in Chicago, and saw him in Madison. He toight like a tiger. Hip hop is American; tried and true. Be proud. Domestic soul therapy.
Oh, yeah, you just can't move out of the ghetto. It's not that easy. That was my two cents. Kudos to you, Jason, and continue to be as positive as you are.
making money and being sucessful is a bad thing???? It's the fucking American Way. Don't like it, move out of America. I'm sure Iraq will take you. I'm so sick of people whining about their situation when they have it in their power to change things. I especially hate Liberal White Guilt, that's just pathetic. Neither I nor my family was here when slavery was going on, yet I'm held accountable for other peoples actions. Bullshit.
I mean for some kids, holding a gun and being a gangsta, and repin' ur hood is almost as cool as being a police officer in the olden days...that's why nowadays "gangsta","pimp", and "ghetto" are actually compilments...we need to find someway to portray the ghetto without it sounding cool...and btw GTA games aren't working with the awareness either it just makes it look even cooler...
this movie is inspiring, but its been done...the awareness is already there, but because of how hollywood portrays ghettos...we actually accept it..and because of this some actually think its cool.
I'm confused at all the violent, rascist, ignorant comments because of this video. Why? Why are people talking about how rap sucks/rocks or how he should just move, how his not helping himself, etc? All this video was about was his way of coping with pain in a positive way. I think it's great what he's saying.
If you have to comment on another video about how "funny" it is, it's probably not funny at all. Also, I like how this young man deals with his emotions in a productive way instead of a destructive one.
stop the swearing and name calling. I am one of the working poor in Canada, single mom, shop at Goodwill, raised 4 great kids,now a grandma.Born in poor section of the city, moved to a run down farm. Son in law is from the ghetto of San Diego and when he came here he saw this is a ghetto with people working their fingers to the bone to grow food. Many have stayed here who were homeless. Go ahead, call me Mother Teresa, but I wear cowboy boots.
Some people can't translate it to words so they use violence to express it. Everyone has their own ways to express their anger, some bad, some good ways.
man, enough with the ignorant emo comments... and racists ones, too.. anyway that was deep, that he expresses his feelings in a positive way, unlike some commentors on here.
wow i feel alot better about rap now just because of this video, its good that soem ppl can deal with their anger and pain this way instead of using violence
This video doesn't say anything about race. Why is it only the racist assholes that post? Violence is everywhere, its human nature. Glad to see someone out there is doing something positive from it!
I'm not racist, I listen to a lot of different types of music (except country). I'm white and I think black people are awesome...I think mostly every race is awesome. Except the Chinese, they are bad drivers and are very rude when riding elevators.
Fuck you JustinDavis. i hate people like you because you have to pick one kind of people to make fun of with uneducated racial stereotypes to make yourself feel fuckin superior when in fact you are a no good son of a bitch. They say BeHeard? Well we just heard from you that your a lameass fuck. I hope you heard me. This is how i deal with racial pain.
Are you telling me that you didn't see that I was just joking?!? Are you serious? I'm much more evolved and advanced than that. Come on now. I think you need to open your mind and see that I was kidding. I'm sure that other people could tell that I was just playing.
You might think hate against Chinese is rare, and racism against Chinese is out-of-date, but it's not. Asians, in America, probably face less racism than other races, but they still face it. Asians are a minority wherever they go in the country, so they're always going to get some hate from the racists. Put yourself in their shoes.
Why do you have to be so ignorant...people like you are what makes this country so racist...Betcha wont come to the "hood" making those types of comments Khild565...Quit hiding behind your post...make yourself known...
Hooray, another stupid gimmick from Nintendo. They haven't come up with an original video game for years so they have to resort to selling crap that their sucker customers will use for about two hours and forget about. Anybody remember the gryoscope?
i heard Fiddy was huffin all this BS about this cat in L.A. that wrote down whack rhymes everytime he heard a firecracker go off. he went on to say that you're a busta.
so things happening in the ghetto and in the suburbs and even those who are about to cross the border must blame bush who is just following a line of crappy presidents who really don't do anything positive for the us and their only concern is oil and hoe's
3- When rap music started to turn real scocial problems into fantasy for safe suburban middle class kids to buy into and enjoy while a few artists got super rich and greedy then it stopped being inspiring, or artistic or helpful.. it's not the blues anymore.
1- Expressing your feelings through music/lyrics is a personal thing, a way to make your suffereing more bareable. I guess rap can be seen to be like an updated blues in this respect. Music about personal suffereing.
Either way, the youth of the world is fucken fucked. I accepted it the day a president was blamed for people not wanting to leave home when a hurricane was coming, all i got to say is, GG , hell >> us.
no im afraid not, british are learning to be cocky over having an annoying accent, the french are still coping with being faggots, and the rest just suck and only hate what there parents tell them to, those are the only differences. and dont post some stupid shit about bush or someshit because its just fucken stupid. and yes you can tell your parents about me :) or complain at the fact i didnt crayon out my sentences in perfect english ^^.
haha brittish kids just got a big news thing about being the most anti social teenagers in the world... but doing that stuff aint anti social *is confused* just a way to have fun =]
Oh and we DO NOT have an annoying accent! americans do... and you cant disagree with that =]=] x
There are a shed load of diffrent types of white people, the ones that enslaved are tha Brits, Yanks, and Western Europeans... in other words, maybe they should have their own label... hows slave drivers?
the slave trade you're talking about is dead, as should people like you be who still talk about shit that happened centuries ago, keeping the devides between people, regardless of colour
slave trade is not dead most people just ignore the reality. It's just illegeal. watch something other than FOX news and you may find a whole other world one in which human life is little more than a spatter of blood on a gold note.

As much as so many people dont care what others think, its not really their fault, their narrow minded and thats just how they are.
Also, whats the name of that song and whats the movie called that the scenes are shot from?

I'm confused at all the violent, rascist, ignorant comments because of this video. Why? Why are people talking about how rap sucks/rocks or how he should just move, how his not helping himself, etc? All this video was about was his way of coping with pain in a positive way. I think it's great what he's saying.

If you have to comment on another video about how "funny" it is, it's probably not funny at all. Also, I like how this young man deals with his emotions in a productive way instead of a destructive one.

stop the swearing and name calling. I am one of the working poor in Canada, single mom, shop at Goodwill, raised 4 great kids,now a grandma.Born in poor section of the city, moved to a run down farm. Son in law is from the ghetto of San Diego and when he came here he saw this is a ghetto with people working their fingers to the bone to grow food. Many have stayed here who were homeless. Go ahead, call me Mother Teresa, but I wear cowboy boots.

Some people can't translate it to words so they use violence to express it. Everyone has their own ways to express their anger, some bad, some good ways.

I'm not racist, I listen to a lot of different types of music (except country). I'm white and I think black people are awesome...I think mostly every race is awesome. Except the Chinese, they are bad drivers and are very rude when riding elevators.

Fuck you JustinDavis. i hate people like you because you have to pick one kind of people to make fun of with uneducated racial stereotypes to make yourself feel fuckin superior when in fact you are a no good son of a bitch. They say BeHeard? Well we just heard from you that your a lameass fuck. I hope you heard me. This is how i deal with racial pain.

Is your name made-n-china...or...mad-en-china.
Ya feel me?
JustinDavis78 5 years ago
You might think hate against Chinese is rare, and racism against Chinese is out-of-date, but it's not. Asians, in America, probably face less racism than other races, but they still face it. Asians are a minority wherever they go in the country, so they're always going to get some hate from the racists. Put yourself in their shoes.

3- When rap music started to turn real scocial problems into fantasy for safe suburban middle class kids to buy into and enjoy while a few artists got super rich and greedy then it stopped being inspiring, or artistic or helpful.. it's not the blues anymore.

stresslord 5 years ago
1- Expressing your feelings through music/lyrics is a personal thing, a way to make your suffereing more bareable. I guess rap can be seen to be like an updated blues in this respect. Music about personal suffereing.

slave trade is not dead most people just ignore the reality. It's just illegeal. watch something other than FOX news and you may find a whole other world one in which human life is little more than a spatter of blood on a gold note.
