SB.TV - Akala - "One More Breath"

[dunagia]

on some RATM tip

[lilmale]

i love when akala speaks before his songs, he sounds like a really cool guy.

I love rappers on alternate beats, shows they are really great musicians at everything, it being done in america by some real talented people. Eyedea, Kristoff Krane and No bird Sing which are a band but a rapper on the vocals. would love the greats of uk and us team up

[SelinaP95]

beautiful <3

[bumwholez]

Akala, the perfect artist to push the 'new' movement of Rapoustic.

[solluz1000]

@fearlessftw so these are american rapper thanks i going to check them out:)

[solluz1000]

akala u are so amazing of a rapper and inspirational .. every time im having a sup bad day ur songs clear my tears away.. i wish that it was rappers like u and lowkey , logic etc in the usa ... but all i have to say more power to u and keep up the great work :)

[fearlessftw]

@solluz1000 Immortal Technique, Diabolical, Akir, Jedi Mind Tricks....

[abigasm]

i am so in love with akala!

[MissGinnygog]

Respect for this guy. One love

[mysherby100]

inspiring as usual like akala..one more breath love akala x

[andyhmltn]

people don't realise how inspirational this guy is. I've had a shit month and this song's just made me feel a tonne better about everything.

[RickAstleyZ]

Not as good as random impulse :P

[wandersonwanderson]

tu puchou uma maconha o doidão???

You pulled a marijuana high

[TheBrainwashable55]

Dislikes?... 27 Reasons men should use condoms

[FREEZINGWEAZEL]

This guy truly is amazing. As long as there are people like this in hip hop, the genre will never die. Akala and One Be Lo are my favourite MCs right now. It's a shame that only one of them is getting the recognition he deserves.

[VZXFG15]

Fucking talented!

[8T2Artist]

new video with melody ellington pn my page now youtube 8t2artist

[DDeanzy]

This guy has knowledge and inspiration bursting outta the seams. Can't stop Akala

[MrSneakzz]

akala 1 man movement keep preaching brother

[RealisticRhymesTv]

Below comment, ure a neak !

Akala is 1 of the realest artists to walk the planet, show love not hate

Go back to ure shit about money and chains

People need to feel and listen to the bars

Hes a lyrical genius

[manshadiboy2]

love akala (no homo) but this isn't his best, and we all know it, but he is playing the guitar at the same time so still its amazing.. just wish he could do less of a chorus and if he does if he didn't repeat it as much, e.g. yours and my children would be way better if he added more bars and replaced it with the chorus.

[cartz90]

Akala is still the don...since day one.

[ukmlmmlm]

A burger an hour

keeps illness in power! Shine but never mind!

[camronwishart]

this is amazing do more rap songs with guitar and put this on a album

[ResoIute]

stop questioning life and live it

[Aadrian114]

@ResoIute if you dont like the songs he makes then dont listen to'em!

[ResoIute]

@Aadrian114 I love Akala, I wish he would just focus on something more progressive

[yatese12]

@knowthyself121 yeah

[EmmanuelLawal]

that sbtv thing at the beginning is sickk

[treverbettis]

terrible the lyrics needs to be more subtle and country not hip hop or rnb. Nice guitar though. Im not hating im like most of akala songs but this is disappointing. Still better than ndubz or lil wayne though

[yatese12]

tryna be random impulse?

[knowthyself121]

@yatese12 What a dumb thing to say, what is only one black rapper at a time allowed to play guitar?

[Asanteofficial]

sometimes i forget how deep this guy is

[shawry333]

what is the beat befor akala kicks in?

[UmeshBx]

Somebody please upload guitar tutorial of this or just post me the chords?

[TrueBlueEight]

Akala goes hard

[MusikLuva01]

how can u dislike this hes playin the guitar n rappin at the same time u no how hard that is?

[VanguardIslam]

@MusikLuva01 I do the same thing it takes far more focus than singing and playing

[jmturrell1]

there are no haters...

[Jizzle20101]

yo brother this track is real.....keep up the good work, dont watch the haters.................

[MrJJBK]

Keep it up mate

[onlyme3960]

omg this fucking sux we can't understand what he is saying, no point listening to it, you could also listen to a baby say his first words, it's the same

[R0B0stairs]

@onlyme3960 Are you american?

[onlyme3960]

@R0B0stairs no im french but this isn't the problem, it's just sux when sum1 "rapping" so fast, there are some frenchies that do that also, it just sux.

[randomimpulser]

@onlyme3960 just concentrate

[R0B0stairs]

@onlyme3960 Well it sucks for you because you cant understand it lol give it a chance, once you decode it after a few listens its really good. Hes not rapping in a slow hip hop style its more Grime oreintated which is usually 140 BPM

[JACKHUGHES31]

@onlyme3960 Go suck on a fucking baguette you piece of shit

[JACKHUGHES31]

@onlyme3960 this isnt even that fast ,go suck a baguette and shave your monkey of a mother.

[onlyme3960]

@JACKHUGHES31 I would like you to fuck your father, and you also, I love male asses so much :)

don't worry I will have a condom, so I won't give you aids from your father.

[JACKHUGHES31]

@onlyme3960 this isnt even insulting, its just fucking creepy lol

[fearlessftw]

@onlyme3960 well, anyone who speaks English understands this

[TheBetcyboy]

thumbs up for akala the lyrical genius im waiting for him to start doin it in french lol

[PicoDeath]

every suggestion but lowkey is shit

[R0B0stairs]

Akala is a philosopher, he's one to watch..

[copperkipper1]

BIG UP AKALA.

[cipajevas]

[TheGoldiniac]

[callumsimmons]

[georpthey]

[TKPUNKEDBOY]

[DontJudgeFudge]

20 people are smoking the cheap stuff. :)

[blackbot4000]

Music's Huey Freeman

[roadrunneruntd]

intro sounds abit like fade to black by metallica rate him tho

[NextPhaseGrimeTV]

akala is 2 sik, how can he spit and play at the same time

[randomimpulser]

@NextPhaseGrimeTV you heard of random impulse? look up Overload on SB.TV or something he has done live with a guitar. also check out his top 3 selected/Ps and Qs refixes. if you havent heard or random impulse youre missing out, he is making moves

[christankh]

Sick akala always goes it hard !

[deeboiz]

18 people are allergic to intelligence.

[blagmusic]

Skills!

[knowthyself121]

If u dislike this the sad reality is your probably a bit thick

[knowthyself121]

Listen to War Mixtape 2 then Doublethink then this, who else is anywhere near that versatile??????????

[knowthyself121]

Akala is actually one of the best rappers ever, US or UK FACT!!

If u dont agree u probably just aint listened to all his material

This is just another example of why he is LIGHT YEARS ahead of these clowns

[hgkjggjhgjhg]

If you don't like Akala, why are you constantly posting on his video's? Spending your time hating on youtube video's nice life bro lol.

The more I listen to this, it just gets better ^_^

His fire in the booth is just FIREEE tho.

[ZieyKizzle]

BRILLIANT HARDER THAN IT LOOKS

[DshankumMusic]

LISTEN TO MY GUITAR RAPS?

[SkibbzRS]

lmfao this is shit.

akala is slacking 

[callofdutyaddict1000]

YEEESSSS!!! AKALA!!!!!

[JAGZiiE]

your afros wonkey

[patalaaar]

This deserved to be the 1000th video special

[sionlow69]

Akala's been listening to metallica lately clearly, i really like it tbh, coming with something really fresh sounding, i know the whole 1 guitar 1 emcee has been done a million times before but i think the ecclecticness (is this a word?!) of akala really comes through, i wonder what influced him to start playin guitar?

[sh4p3shifter]

fake and gay

[sorceone2006]

sb u taking long with the 1000th upload, back to topic words cannot describe the sickness

[to3to3music]

big this from akala....makes me wana try learn to use a guitar maself....inspirational stuff

[agoroallstars]

akala > Dynamite

[TheWonkyMoose]

Metallica meets grime - awesome!

[maximus1540]

@TheWonkyMoose Since when was akala grime

[AaronNathanMiller]

Reminds me of Micall Parknsun

[maxvickers]

i love akala hes true and sick. clever n talented artist when he gets better at guitar and he will.. he'll b unreal..

[AstarsVison]

sounding sick

[KaizenMuzik]

He has performed better before but you've got to appreciate the fact that he is playing the guitar AND rapping. Its not easy.

[DimondSanteMusic]

999'th Upload by SB :) Wonder what special things going to drop to mark 1000 uploads

[Super5thDimension]

Feeling it :]

[ShardsOfShit]

ms dynamite with balls innit

[IndieIan27]

@ShardsOfShit maybe thats because there siblings haha

[ShardsOfShit]

@IndieIan27 kind of why i said it

[carlawawa777]

Can't stop listening to this!!!!

[MrDanielWalls]

the guitar riff reminds me of Metallica - One a little bit. Akala is too sickk.

[HamsterHam88]

@MrDanielWalls I thought it sounded Metallica like as well.

[MrDanielWalls]

@HamsterHam88 glad i'm not the only one! :D

[waveboi93]

Well done

[krimzee]

Akala's a beast on the mic, but this didn't do him justice....Lyrics are dope though.

[SamandDalesMixes]

Akala's too sick!

[positiveblackman1]

this is sh*T but in general he's very very good, i can't lie though when he says stuff like "i was reading malcom when i was 9" i just think fuck off stop being so condescending.

[MusicKnowledge1]

boring as fuck hes nowhere near the best boring dull & what the fuck type of flow is that fucking hell bring him to the rap hut, they would laugh real hard at that flow some moby style shit wack as hell

[peterlikesthis]

@MusicKnowledge1 shakespeare or roll wid us (look into other songs before you make your mind up)

[tompeskett]

@MusicKnowledge1 hahaaahh this is acoustic if you hadn't noticed, how about listen to the lyrics yeh. Check out his F64, akala, lowkey, black the ripper, logic real music. Go listen to chipmunk!

[MusicKnowledge1]

@tompeskett lol what they do is so far off real music its not even funny, & yeah picking up & acoustic guitar & attempting to play chords because it looks good when the reality is that was 4show it was off & he sounded terrible, i know hes better than this but right about now you are listening to him

but your not hearing him but if feeling his lyrics makes it good then you seriously must feel x amount of wannabe mcs that out there very few are real & hardly any are that unique to do anything

[tompeskett]

@MusicKnowledge1 I'd like to know what you think is 'real music', but regardless akalas not 'attempting' (because his is doing so well) to play chords, he's using the guitar, which he didn't pick up long ago, to add some music to the lryics. Its hard to rap as well as he does and play at the same time . As for your last statement these 'wanabe mcs' NO NOT have lryical skill, and its those i listed previous do. Rappers who sign 360 deals are cash cows to the industry.

[phivzzy]

@MusicKnowledge1 listen to his f64 and fire in the booth, hes f64 is the best one

[PhyscoProductionz1]

@MusicKnowledge1 lol music knowedge and you think akala is shit. change your name

[MrROTFLAMO]

Lyrics are good but his voice isnt in harmony with the guitar just my opinion i aint no music producer jus a consumer

[ayolewistv]

thank you this is whats needed not been dark or anything but rap has killed our musicality hip hop is a double edged sword for black music its great in one way but too many people are realint on producers like me because they have no musical talent of there own, akala big up to you keep pushing mate!

[shaolindreams]

akala = cool as fuck

[rohailkiani]

I love how knowledge and power are there in the tags, what akala is all about

[samposener]

takes skill to spit and play, even if it jus simple chords

[velaocampo3]

sick guitar gibson les paul

[Persia321]

that Gibson set him back a few grand, wouldnt of got faded sunburst tho

[Malihar1]

4 PEOPLE ARE DUMB AS OBAMA

[corley94]

That takes real talent, MCing, not just MCing but talking about real things, not guns, hoes and money... and also playing a guitar at the same time.

Akala's the best UK rapper easily.

[henrykingification]

he should team up with random impulse

[CoJoraver]

he's too inelligent, he should be PM

[itsgromit]

i swear this guy eats the dictionary for dinner

[mrchinkz69]

@itsgromit A Dictionary a Day keeps the Bullshit away!

[itsgromit]

@mrchinkz69 lol good one :D

[williammincher1]

@itsgromit thesaurus for breakfast few encyclopedias throughout the day and history books for midnight snack

[itsgromit]

@williammincher1 lol he's like a walking talking dictionary

[banandababa]

[adamjohnmitchell1]

If someone can find Chipmunk doing something like this good, please enlighten me.

[adamjohnmitchell1]

Hands down one of the best MC's in the UK right now. Smashing sb.tv AGAIN

[blackerflash]

cant knock him.... playin da guitar is hard... as in hard.. not ard

[DCPricey]

This is the type of lyrical content that people need to hear!

[BobbySaysSo]

He isn't a rapper anymore, he's a certified musician.

[eddymortonuk]

akala aint just a rapper, he's a poet, musician, goddamn genius!

[deeboiz]

@Mw2ReSpawN He's not singing. He's spitting philosophy. There's a different.

[iNaTuRePwR]

@Mw2ReSpawN Go play ur mw2 please, clueless retard.

[CooKsBCFC]

@Mw2ReSpawN You retarded fuck.

[bamigogy12345]

Knowledge is Power.

[deeboiz]

I haven't even heard it yet and I know it's beast.

[leecinliner]

i am excited for the "1000" milestone

[peterlikesthis]

you talented bastard

[no2facism]

Good work akala, keep resisting the machine.

[PhyscoProductionz1]

i love this guy man, i think he was one of those kids that was mischievous in school but then would show out the teacher infront of the class by proving there teachings wrong lol

[foldintno1]

Akala the philosophical rapper

[MrSound08]

YOU SHOULD LINK UP WITH THE MARLEY FAM

[MrSound08]

[Songshifterz]

Yes akala always coming with the realness respect!

[zSubscriber]

Akala excels at every thing

[kayzx100]
