Shad - Keep Shining

[AdriftSC]

Greetings from Sweden!

[Jason791]

Fight Night Champion brought me here. I had to play a video game to hear good hip hop once again. This dude should be on the radio waves instead of XBOX and PS3. This dude is better than 90 person of the rappers out today.

[brandtboy1]

@MikeParnell Ur gunna die in 2 days :[ im sorry!

[dkrider926]

So awesome to see a rapper actually respecting women and celebrating them, Shad is real hip-hop. Wish I found him earlier

[Arjetube]

he needs more publicity. but most of the people like repetitive and easy accessible music.thats the reason why THIS is not famous...

[tashacullen922]

LOOOOOOVEEE THISSS!

Shad is amazing.

[seaoverbow]

just cried while listening to this. well then.

[MissAllush]

greeting from Armeniaaa...=)

[MsKerenC]

[markus122piesuckers]

Greetings from Canada

[rskwonderv2]

@markus122piesuckers Shad is Canadian <3

[Abracaaadabraaa]

Between Shad & Jay Elec, I hope a lot of the "artists" out there see whats imminent .

Your time is all but up. Sorry and thanks for playing.

[brittneyyss]

dang... just shed a tear lol..

[TXSTEPHENTX]

<3

[leelzonmyheelz]

honestly one of the best songs/ music videos ever

[MrMete1907]

FIGHT NIGHT CHAMPION!

[stomper2009g]

@MrMete1907 that's why im hear!

[caffrya]

Of course he's canadian... so damn positive

[caryrabbit]

Great videos, my type of rap.

[HarmonyandGroove]

I love this song. The video is perfect. Sincere...

[HeRsHeYsKiSsz]

Damn. Shad just won me over.

[footballer4life22]

this guy and vthov need to make a song together

[ChrisJTheDuke]

One of the best in the business

[TheDarkManInTheYard]

I'm male and this gives me goosebumbs. its so dope, the beat, the lyrics & the delivery. True MC.

[djgq]

Damn shame Shad K has such a low number of views.Positive rappers will never get their due.

[ThaBuldozShit]

@djgq betters like that

[choclatesk8erboi]

A rapper that doesnt call every female a bitch?? dope

[djdeadbeat]

this should have millions of views....

[MrMete1907]

FIGHT NIGHT CHAMPION!

[MrVinchenzo555]

10 people r gay

[dubbstown]

@MrVinchenzo555 use your words intelligently. if what you REALLY mean is, "10 people need to improve their music taste" you can say so without disparaging another group of people.

[TheSwissmister22]

@MrVinchenzo555 Shad K doesn't swear in his music let alone discriminate, so why would you?? Those people that disliked that song didn't understand that this song goes out to all women who are good and faithful to what they believe in and if you can discriminate on somebody's sexuality then maybe you don't get the true meaning of his music either.

[niya929]

Finally a song respectful to women

[1drake1231]

@niya929 Keep your head up by Tupac is 20 Years older than this and is about women's respect. Its not like this is the first.

[niya929]

I love the lyrics to this song. they make me so happy. and thats whussup

[crayolaxXxcre8tives]

im here because of fight night champion, I stayed because of the lyrics.

[mikeylit100]

Love this mans lyrics and music. If you want another conscious rapper check out Gift of Gab and Blackalicious

[YMeTheArtist]

All women should listen to this. :) He speaks Knowledge

[xXj13Xx]

Im here because of my awesome taste in music.

[keir193]

I've been a shad fan for a while but i hadn't heard this song before i heard it on fight night. and i was like after 5 seconds "DAMN this is dope" then i checked the artist and was like "DAMN this is SHAD?" It's crazy how a dude like this go from some underground ontario shit to heard worldwide.

[tm07ep]

what just happened? I think I just fell in love...yup...I'm in love <3

[kazikleszno]

greetings from Poland

[ruleszs]

the reason why im hearing this amazing song is because is on fight night champion ost the best music in the game

[Fan4Boxing]

I love this cong but video pretty weird

[Noipion]

@Fan4Boxing The video explains itself the song -.- it's about women, think they'd for sure have to listen up to it.

[KillKing12]

Tumbs up if you heard this song before it was released on Fight Night.

Friggin love this song, cant believe I ever forgot about it

[GodScoutSavage]

Just met shad today, he came to my school and i got to jam with him, fun to see him try to keep up with metal heads. Pretty cool guy

[Aswaad14]

[mrbeartown22]

[YoungLuns]

shads an inspiration. hes too real. i fuck with all kinds of rap but i think more people need to be put on this dude. I actually did a remix over this instrumental a couple months ago called "Young Luns - Aspirations". Go to my channel and check it out along with a few other tracks I have. If you feel my music feel free to follow me on twitter @YoungLuns and subscribe to my page. Big plans for 2012. Tryin to take it to the next level. Appreciate your time and 'keep shining'

[Kevdaboi]

thumbs up if fight night champion brought you here

[atomicbolt]

"with Goals like Fedorov" - Sergei Fedorov was a Red Wings player who scored a lot, but also "goals" as in "ambitions"

"Never hit College like the Danforth" - College and Danforth are two parallel streets in Toronto (they both run east-west), but also as in women who may not reach college

[IMMAKNOCKUOUT]

I have to meet this man before I die

[Nikkilightbug]

@IMMAKNOCKUOUT

he's very nice. And he's so fun to watch perform, he looks so happy rapping :D

[SaugaSkateMedia]

@IMMAKNOCKUOUT seen live for free at the city hall of Mississauga over summer haha

[MikeParnell]

@IMMAKNOCKUOUT

I'll be doing just that in two days. What a legend in the making.

[jmanmostert]

@IMMAKNOCKUOUT

i did two weeks ago inn hali. it was doope

[pinkcyclop]

I had a conversation with him 2 days ago. He is simply amazing.

[gzus4eva]

Dass what I'm talkin bout!!!! Mmmm!!! ♫ ♪ ♫

[daddykinggutta]

haha i didnt know it was a real video for this but when I won the belt on fight night i jumped on the ropes with my belt and this was playing lol and yes its on Greatest of All Time difficulty i just keep shining lol

[shuckslbj]

He calls them "broads" in the first line, and "chicks" follows about 20 seconds later. I'm not convinced.

[Griffolion0]

I'm probably the whitest white guy ever and I love this :).

[UselessAccountSquare]

this song gives me the chills its just so amazing <3<3

[JBone91]

Thanks Fight Night.

[VgreenipodV]

Shad is my Saviour.

[caracolemaneuver]

This song is great, only part I disagree with is "more women in rap" because all female rappers are awful except for Lauryn Hill.

[andrewogundele8]

@caracolemaneuver you forgot about jean grae...missy elliot for a period of time...its like we need more rah diggas, ms hills, missys...and such...oh and take it in...its more WOMEN...not more pop dolls held by the strings o the industry

[mariofarrow]

Man This Is Amazing! Real Hip Hop

-Paint The Sky,Blew!!!

[ThaSubzstance]

this nigga makes me happy to be canadian. real talk, realk hip hop. Respect on mentioning kwelis four women .

[FuzzyLogic211]

This video made my mother tear up. True story.

[SuperStoneyboy1]

peace love n rap shad..you know it !!!!!!!

[SuperiorNizzle]

I like the song, but the videos too cheesy for me.

[BlueJacket150Band]

Yeahhh Fight Night Champion Baby!

[AdriftSC]

So amazing, i'm blown away.

[limeysweetdog]

love this song!

[10fork]

Best rapper, with no haters.

GL Shad with your music.

[ketsopon]

Good Song



[PetertheImpaler]

More man than most...

[SuperChompIt]

This song genuinly makes me teary :) so heartfelt its amazing :D

[streetex101]

What soul. A beat and lyrics that make your hair stand on end, and meaning that gives us some more hope. Thanks Shad.

[ThatFailedAbortion]

fuckin' right!

[reveu1]

who produces for this guy my god!

[YoungLuns]

Shad is definitely one of my favorite rappers.. i've been listening to him for a few years now. i really liked this beat and i wrote a track over its instrumental.. its "Young Luns - Aspirations". its got a real hip-hop/motivation type feel to it.. check it out and let me know what you think.. reppin' columbus ohio. i also have a few other tracks.. follow me on twitter @Lunsbird if you like my music. peace

[EMAINIE]

Shad>>>>>Drake

[arsenalist94]

thumbs up if u only came to this song after fight night champion :D

[ttr15]

anyone here because of fight night?

[timonandpumbaa12]

"Girls in a league of their own like Geena Davis" damn he's good...League of their own was a movie about a women's baseball league starring the actress Geena Davis

[herreraricardo85]

What a brilliant message, this guy has so much depth. I love positive music :)

[JPSheezy]

he's a gaylord

[lollollol425]

@JPSheezy arre mentaly fucked? hes not a gaylord. Like he respects girls unlike other fucking rappers that rap about love,sex, and alcohol and drugs. YOU are the fucking gaylord. If you dont represent woman and want the rest of this fucking world wants then be a follower. but he is not gaylord. Honestly, go fuck yourself if you think that. Shad is unbalevable especially what he means in the song.

[JPSheezy]

@lollollol425 Haha sorry, I don't really mean that. I just put that because one of my friends really likes him and I wanted to fuck with them.

[Hackerhawiti]

Canada

Canada

Canada!!

First Eeb

now Shad

something in the water there haha

much love from christchurch, New Zealand

[PetertheImpaler]

Sometimes nice guys finish first...

Keep that Juno polished...

[michealjohnedmondson]

i first heard this on fight night champion. had to see who this dude was. good music

[Fuzzman109]

Im here because of 3Run, made respect for this song, and the 3RUN group. One love, peace.

[ProudIndianOverHere]

@Fuzzman109 hahahaha me toooo!!

[lokip0000]

@Fuzzman109 came here cause shad is the best man alive, who created respect for this song

[desiretheKingdom]

Amazing artist. Amazing music. Amazing video. Just brilliant!

[3arthquak3Slic3]

This is maybe the first "positivity rap" song I've ever heard that actually delivers in the lyrical department. This guy's rhymes are tight as hell, and he WILL hit it big if he can turn out more songs like this one. Epic flow, and an epic NYC-style beat to match it. Who knew Canada had it in 'em, lol. Keep it up, son.

[robroythefirstmm]

This shit is so epic.

[mimzie82]

cant wait to see him, classified and M.O in 9 days

[mimzie82]

@mimzie82 one day

[seeteenah]

soooo real

[SICILYTV2]

THANKS FAM I AM A FEMALE RAPPER AND WE REALLY DONT GET MUCH LOVE FOR WHAT WE DO BUT PRAISE GOD WE DO IT FOR THE KING

[frinensi555]

@SICILYTV2 how long have you been on crack?

[nasir1399]

fight night chapion

[divadeelish]

Cried when I saw this it made me feel so uplifted. 8 people out there are living in the dark...

[spinningsilk]

this video just sort of reminds me of miley cyrus' '7 things', not that shad and her have anything else in common at all...

[alam66anjum]

rarely comment youtube videos nowadays. god damn this video made me so happy

[Makaveli175]

Lady Gaga, Beyonce all fake

[CaShMoN3YDiAMoND]

why would anybody in their right mind dislike this song?

[pendulousphallus]

Some women are easy to fall in love with.

[TheChampaignKone]

i think other rappers are afraid they'll be called soft if they write a song about respecting women. Shad your unreal, i have so much respect for you keep it up man! Represent London!

[motioncity100]

@TheChampaignKone bro shad reps canada hes not like a drake or something u knw hes strictly doing this for canadian hip hop and hip hoop itself and i mean as far as candian rappers with buzz i like shad and jd era the most btw ppl peep my things if you want im an energetic person so my music descrbes who i am in an energy sorta way haha anyways take care yall and shad keep dropping stuff man i knw ur too slept on hopefully not one day

[BollocksUtwat]

@TheChampaignKone Most rappers are more concerned with their image than the words they spew. Most rappers suck at rapping but have really bitchin' shoes and thats what counts.

Check out Ke$ha. She looks like a used up ho, the seminal club girl to take home. Thats all it takes to sell. Now you want lyrics? What are you crazy? We're trying to sell product here. :P

[mricci5]

@TheChampaignKone i accidentally hit the thumbs down :/ 

[SlewthRU]

@TheChampaignKone Tell that to Tupac!!

[FolgoreChannel]

@TheChampaignKone tupac wasn't afraid too ! ;)

[ThatGuyNamedTim]

@TheChampaignKone tupac...;)

[deanrhanley]

SHAD GOES HARD.

[severinosdinoslos]

3:45 min pure chill my hair are in the air dude thats rare you shine shad you shine <3

[lollollol425]

6 people dont apreciate what woman really go through. I love this song its so inspiring, and finally there is a song about who women really are, not whores, sluts, hookers, or sex magnets, we are woman, and for us, we need to keep shining. This song tells everyone woman are people two not just for sex like most songs. (:

Keep Shining <3

[deeluve22]

6 people are too dim.

[23BigDrew]

I don't like rap but Shad is a good rapper I liked this song off of Fight Night Champion.

[BradsMusic420]

thanks fight night champion for the amazing soundtrack

[websharky2k]

Not all rap is about misogyny and stupidly primal bullshit, and it takes a serious understanding of what rap should be to do what this guy does.

[andrewogundele8]

@websharky2k well said...as much as I enjoy digging and finding gems all over the place...too many ppl have fallen under that trap of just rapping about primal behaviour and misogyny and materialistic views...i feel the essence of hip hop is dying personally...but by no means is it dead...and I pray one day it'll return or at least evolve into a more fulfilling yet modern form of art and cuture

[starsalt9]

@websharky2k Word! 2pac has a number of songs respecting his mother and other women, and he's a legend.

[andrewogundele8]

@2Trips word I see you

[PSUBLJ]

The chords in this song are unreal

[king1bs]

@PSUBLJ

That's why sampled based productions are so awesome.

[Yankeesrock4life]

Who needs Drake when u have this beeaaastttt!!!!!! Dope song and my GF loves this song too

[Younglox]

I LOVE THIS MUSIC !

[BlackCloverRecords]

This song is on Fight Night Champion. Does anyone know how to delete it? It's the corniest, lamest, most trite, estrogen filled, adult contemporary rap song ever. Fuck Jesus and this song.

[laxguru601]

uhhhhh.....fuck you...

[2trips]

@BlackCloverRecords i know right! it seems like every rap song today is about gender equality.

[andrewogundele8]

@2trips what tracks have you been listening to? not that i'm disproving you or anything, but over the past 2-3 i have heard squat when it comes to gender equality in RAP... well not of this nature. Anything related to women has been "yea lady, go ahead, do your thing, you got an ass so shake it, its ok to be a golddigger cause you deserve it, blah blah blah" type of music.

[2trips]

@andrewogundele8 i was making fun of the guy i was replying to. i wish i could seriously say that.

[king1bs]

@andrewogundele8

yo yo yo, you serious?

there more then a ton of dope music out there! you just have to search for it

check Macklemore,Atmosphere,Blue Scholars,Bambu just to name a few !

They all speak some of the Realest shit you'll ever hear and I mean that.

[andrewogundele8]

@king1bs oh I know there are a ton of dope artists...film skool rejects, outasight, blu, jay electronica...heck go into the aloe blacc, adele, rafael saadiq, musiq...not even...go to beethovan, mozart....there are SOO many good songs...

for my last comment i didnt know the guy was being sarcastic, which now that i read it it screams sarcasm....

I was more referring to BlackClover Records comment because very few tracks I've heard actually say "yo women...you have your own voice, use it!"...

[illaztic]

Honestly I PUT SHAD UP WITH THE GREATS like common, Maestro fresh wes, and those guys.

[suicidemonkey12]

shad and arcade fire are good things from canada. not justin bieber.

[naweb230]

I can listen and watch this all day. Sometimes I think f*** commercial hip hop. Shad keep doing your thing. This is a true masterpiece!!!

[AfrojacX]

Fight Night Champion brought me here. Great song. Very uplifting.

[hornz03]

i love his reaction around the 1:13 mark. It's as if he's sayin "yep, i just made a hit!"

chills

[116ntobeko]

Shad make it what it does fam, Glory to God for giving you something to bless him with and to all the women in the world we appreciate you.



[eighteen18jts]

thumbs up if you came here because this was the song on the movie "you got served, beat the world" that's how i knew about this song.

[ExpectResistance66]

Chills...

[illsbnom]

Thats some intense vibrato in the chorus..

[naweb230]

@illsbnom Tru



[TheDPC4life]

If you don't like this song, you don't like life itself.

[Yuliya06K]

The video is amazing!

[heroineinside]

rap is not my genre ...but i love this song

[justindakinginmadden]

if it wasnt for fight night champion i would have never heard of this track...........glad i bought da game i love dis track!!!

[CheddaWiz]

dis song goes tooooooooooooooooo hard!!! I love this shit man!!!
