Wale "The Artistic Integrity" video

[Schredkern]

Classic Phil Collins sample, Gbenga Akinnagbe cameo... how can you not like this?

[tehfuxx]

nigga said "my chins high like a japenese pilot lmao" classic joint

[adrian121]

LMAO

[ruggerREL]

this made me a WALE fan dead ass

[DeluuusionaL]

How could somebody dislike this? Like Wale would say "Please pardon my integrity."

He keeps it real, and unique. Wale is a legend.

[14997251]

wale and this dude are cousins

[mcfreshintonz]

tooo real no matter wha wale is still so wha u went a lil mainstream some ppl need more listens but still man that fact my dude got that nigeria pride in him[um ricka [back to the feature]] my dude is a monster

[ElslvdrGuapo]

yeah that cup they show when he says "they say im lil wayne" is supposed to mean he does codeine to influence his music ..cause thats what the media suspected lil wayne of doing

[MrBklyn40]

Yea they from Nigeria too.Holla!!!!

[Timillionaire]

Little trivia: Wale and Gbenga are cousins.

[1BlaK99]

Wale is that dude

[DMV410]

u got it all wrong, pros are just pros,

the penny 1z are the dopez

[X22689]

has anyone noticed at 2:35 that while he shows a guy skateboarding when it says "they say im lupe" but when he says "they say im lil wayne" the show a hand hitting a cup of water over? is that supposed to represent wayne as bein watered down???? I was like was that a shot at wayne? if so YEEEEEEEEEAH LOL

[TheKewBini]

lol i bet it is

[OnMy88Shit]

I don't think there's that much behind it.

Wale is a couple levels above Wayne in talent and content IMO but he sure wouldn't diss him. After all Wayne contributed to Wale's rise to fame by hopping on the Nike Boots remix and taking Wale with him on tour.

[X22689]

i jus find it so funny how its like almost a hidden message u know! likw really why would they put a pic of a cup of water fallin over for him u know, and i know wale didnt make it a shot he didnt make the video lol but ric cordero i wonder hmmmmm

[shaqRED07]

It may be that since Lil Wayne always refereces syrup and how its in a white cup jus an idea may be wrong

[SiegeSpitfire]

na thas supposed to be a cup of syrup lol

[MrSupraD]

@X22689 lmao !!! i think it was cuz lil wayne stay wit a cup of syrup ,, but that shits still funny lol

[nightzeroAX]

@X22689 Yup seems so.

[Angrous]

strange how nike boots was in the mtv rotation but this wasn't hmm... i wonder why (no i don't i know the fuck why) "The Viacom Empire got me feeling like luke"

[GRANDHUSSLER]

Hip hop is in a state of 911

Im going in.

mission save real hip hop..

[KMELIZ21]

I definitely agree wale starting to be a lil too mainstream, he has already recorded with one of the worst artist lady gaga..

[GRANDHUSSLER]

Do you have any Ideas about how we could define what is happening to hip hop?

[nidade0]

this song go so hard, make me wanna go home for a gogo at the armory!!!! he reppin DMV to the fullest.

[nuttymonkey626]

were the frick can i get the lyrics for this song man!?!?!?!?!

[bigel2511]

man i've been lookin forever

[sharaifjones]

Does anyone know who produced this? That beat is slick, with a lil hint of go-go with it. The Seinfeld clips are appropriate for this too. And of course Wale killed it.

"We apples and oranges, and everybody pear us."

[TogaMoe]

I think it's a brotha named Best Kept Secret

[Levi6733]

Actually Best Kept Secret is TWO cousins, named Craig B. and Tone P. from Southwest dc.. They pretty much produced the whole mixtape except for two or three songs.

[BmoreBlack]

those eggplants dopes(bmore word 4 foamposities) is hard as shyt

[SkyBalla09]

i dont get the whole kanye west and matzsumoto line??

explanation????

[sleazen804]

basically he is saying people compare him to 'ye but they aren't alike they just like the same kicks.

[rzcmch]

wale is already in my top 10 with no album

[nowayout1010]

THis shit HOT!....y aint this kid blowin up?

[BIGJUST7]

he is blowing up, he is on the cover of XXL along with my boys Kid Cudi and Mickey Factz

[GoPorchy]

Wale is the one of the best lyricist of current times,

and this song shows it the most.

[edhardyroka]

[blackyoungen]

[SkyBalla09]

February 09'

[barondjr]

those are old you will not find those in a store unless they releaese them again

[DrD5]

this is one of my favorite songs ever created..i heard it like mid june on the mixtape about nothing

my only problem with this song is that i cant understand alot of the things hes saying..."like the cleo lemon thing and some things in the 2nd verse..something about vegetable omlette and shit

but its sitll one of the most bangin tracks

[walkinartform12]

he said "i'll never back up like cleo lemon on my self"(a quarterback's three or five step drop) and then he said "i'm on end's meet like a vegetable omlette" (no meat like a vegetarian)

[Echeona]

i am possibly the biggest wale fan... hes so real and lyrical. not a gangster and dont claim to be one cant wait till his fire hits the fan.

btw what does e mean when he says "i never back up like cleo lemon on myself"

[Juelz073]

Cleo Lemon is a QB un the NFL (currently on the Jacksonville Jauguars) who's been a backup QB basically his entire career, no matter what team he's played for..

[SkyBalla09]

cleo lemon was the starting qb for the dolphins in 07 . i guess because he was known for scrambling in college he says that.. not sure...

[araynova]

Hey bro. Cleo Lemon played for the Doplphins in 07' and now I think he plays for the Jaguars. He's been in the league since 2000 but always the team second or even third sting backup quarterback.

[jbpanther20]

what does he mean when he say "peabody mice crawling up the shower"?

[Elitaste]

he live on Peabody St in NW DC...he goes "I remember Peabody mice crawling up the shower"...like it was a shitty living situation

[jbpanther20]

o ok...i had a feeling it was a DC thing

[AznGuyPictures]
