@ThatSexyCat Grow Up

[ThatSexyCat]

@nick199077 grow up how? it was a joke if you cant get that then you need to learn how to take jokes i mean really your telling me to grow up when the first thing you do when you see a comment is to reply trying to start a fight so you need to grow up and dont bother replying cause im done with you.

[nick199077]

@ThatSexyCat I think someone needs to take a minute and change her tampon

[amin74able]

TO GIVE IS PRICELESS.............is the message i have received from my boy K'naan. Respect.

[shahzeb68]

I'm just gunna take a minute and like/favorite/coment and share this video.

[RedBullGoesToParis]

i didn't listen to this song for over a year but it's still great & i love it.

i'm not sure if i really understand the meaning of it cause english isn't my fist language but sometimes only listen without understaning is also good ;)

& i just wanted to say i'm white and my bf is black. every people on this earth is human and has a heart! it's like a brown cat and a white. both are still cats. Okey maybe bad compare^^

it ain't about black or white cause we're human! tupac's rip <3 words are true!

[thecuriousapple]

im just ganna take a minute.....

[MissFashonista891]

This touches my heart <3

[treemazone]

K'naan description; Amazing, big hearted guy.

Thats all xD Hes very inspirational. amazing songs, :) It touches all of our hearts, ( Not the stupid people )

[BamasBest123]

u should just take a minute and like this comment :)

[MirandaaaaDollface]

I love my dog

[graffitiworldclass]

ill take any minute from my life to liscen to k'naan

[nomultikills]

Best song I have heard in months, thank you for making such a nice song! :)

[lorma96]

PEACE

[arsenalboi18]

This video has so many negative comments about pointing a finger at racism.

if you felt so strongly about this song than you would show it with positive comments.

instead you wreck the virtues/beliefs that this song gives and use it against diffrent ethnicities and stereotypes

[inoslover2121]

Every time I listen to K'naan a part of me dies inside because someone so talented and such an inspiring story dosent have anything near what he deserves while untalented people just born rich are considered "Grammy Winning Artists"

[deadbarbierox]

i used to listen to this wen i lived in edmonton alberta over a year ago i listened to it right before i moved and it used to make me cry.... call me a baby but i love this song and it makes me emotional.... <3

[PZappa420]

White music has no soul. And i'm white. One love.

[Kainaat12347862]

@PZappa420 i'm black (brown) and i (mostly) agree!! :D

[arsenalboi18]

@PZappa420

Saying white music has no soul is just like saying white people have no souls or great britain has no passion.

and you just need to take a minute to think of what ur saying.

So do YOU have soul, does all the hard up families of GB have soul, does any of the white population have soul. HYPOCRITE.

[mrLiskovcan]

this is awee wait for it wait for it someeee :)

[theBobChow]

MAN I WAS GOING TO USE THIS FOR A SCHOOL PRESENTATION DID HE HAVE TO SAY NIGGA COME ONE!

[734marshall]

this is so easy to sing

[734marshall]

i cant stop listing to this song

[pingubozz]

this is really a great song so true and it's really a song that i could listen to over and over again

[senopatikarna]

it's an inspiration,  i'll gonna take a minute and ...

[greapfer717]

K'naan is my favorite rapper because he raps about life and inspirational shit. He doesn't rap about sex, drugs, love, and all that crap. He also sings, which makes him even better. If you really listen to his lyrics, it's some deep shit.....very inspirational. Plus, his songs are just.....awesome. hahaha

[20SkiClub12]

@greapfer717 Omg I love how you said that I totally agree!

[X619mysterio]

[k4ch1ng1337]

All dislikes are from racist's who didn't have a minute. THUMBS UP I U AGREE!

[Zer0PrideWorldWide]

@k4ch1ng1337 what does racism have to do with someone not likeing the song? :/ racism is such a copout nowadays

[mdogg094]

@k4ch1ng1337 thats not necseasrily true, it actually based on musical preference.

[KrapZap]

@k4ch1ng1337 or maybe they just didn't like this song. People have different tastes in music. Just because they don't agree with you doesn't mean they are racist

[lDisneyHQ]

@k4ch1ng1337 how are you racist for not liking a song you fuck up?

[bemnethabtu]
