[Jacobsilvestri]

[bicuriousmidget]

[RoyalKnightVIII]

Tlazohcamati, inin video nech pactia, I liked the vid.

[28copland]

this kid is the truth, but because he questions the mainstream he will never be big time which is unfortunate

[MrRioJonez9]

Awesome homie. The fact That you go to workshops shows, Enhancing your skill. Inspiring.

[xDmay1]

Never stop! you are truly a gift! awesome ,  awesome : )

[christina5045]

I'm so in love with all of your writing. I listen again and again and it never fails to give me goose bumps..

[xnbcxx05]

I think I love you.

You're beyond amazing.

[bineson101]

I think i love you! youre amazing in everything you do.

[seraphimra]

@altagracita "...and the poor folks paid shit money to work for the American resort that plowed down their ?earthly? paradise, which some rich investor founded and planted palm trees there for folks who drink Miller Chill..."

To the best of my ability, I attempted to decipher this portion...Perhaps Raf will include lyrics sometime, or maybe it's intentional. To ensure that those who are listening are actually hearing him.

[MuNnKiiiEe]

Logan Heights ghetto, still walking these streets..

[riteree]

i almost cried for a moment

[riteree]

i almost cries for a moment

[mofotribe]

Day...ummm Deep bruh luv your work please never stop

[thaOFFICIALJAPAN]

Dude , to be honest you should have taken the money & did the advert . If anybody silly enough to drink that just cuz you did an advert for it , they were silly enough to do it at some point anyway . & I think most People who understand your poems , would be relatively intelligent enough to understand you need to eat , & that doesn't matter . we Like your poems , people Listen to a couple of your poems they Like doesn't mean they're gonna take Life instructions from you . So Loosen up

[LoveLeadsDaWay]

@thaOFFICIALJAPAN I think the whole point of living a socially conscious life is to not sell out your morals to make a quick buck and that seems to be what he's about

[tzan94]

@LoveLeadsDaWay how is he selling his morals?

[267slpmotofreek]

who the fuck disliked this...tooo real

[yubelongwitme23]

so the first time i ever heard rafael casal was in my english class and ive been inlove with his words ever  since, he is honestly my inspiration:))

[rrirwin]

Every single thing he spins, I adore.

[rsprankpro]

can i hear a deep deep

[ropac1256]

i dont think miller is gonna call him back

[rcarosado]

i still cant friggin write fast enough to get down all my thoughts and write in circles when my head starts spinning. its awesome the way you can get all of it on paper.

[ConfusedTrap]

You make me wanna break all my pencils and never write again. I dont even wanna write knowing that people as good as you could whip my ass with one sentence. I admire you skill man

[thaOFFICIALJAPAN]

@ConfusedTrap you guys shud please stop thinking this is a compliment or a good thing . when you hear someone good, you should be motivated to do better , not stop :/ , i think that's whut rafael wud prefer you do , is take inspiration from his work, not be disheartened , because it's not a competition out here, good poets support each other , so i don't believe he writes to put down other people but to uplift them and make u wana write MORE . this backwards thinking is discouraging to Us .

[thaOFFICIALJAPAN]

@ConfusedTrap Oh , and even if it wus a competition . Why have such lack of belief in yourself , you should still have motivation to do better everytime you find someone who you feel stimulates your mind , good . it challenges you and you need that as motivation to rise up ! Never ever , say your gonna stop again ! makes me mad as an artist myself..

[ConfusedTrap]

@thaOFFICIALJAPAN wow.... thanks man...

[rafaelcasal]

@ConfusedTrap I appreciate the compliment! but yo...never stop writing. I feel that way about writers I admire, but It has to motivate you, not silence you!

[xDmay1]

@rafaelcasal your work is awesome. ...never stop : )

[altagracita27]

can anyone figure out what he's saying between 3:00 and 3:05?

[Sl1ghtOfHands]

Miller watched this. And then disliked it because he just told them to go to hell. Priceless:)

[MyCecii]

You don't understand how much I love you

I ABSOLUTELY love all your poems

Your so deep and true to yourself

Man all your poems just command my attention and captivate me

Keep up the good work :)

[analystEYEisAM]

Wow..Damn dude you are an absolute pleasure to listen to. Amazing word worker who talks about real shit, i saw your ADD poem too and they are both amazing. I think that you are one of THE MOST talented spoken word artists i have seen and im sure you're gonna do it real big. Please dont ever stop because you have an amazing gift that moves people and i hope you take it to the next level, whatever that may be. best of luck.peace

[skitztharipper]

[lookwotisaid]

[abstractmeaning]

tanks for not selling out

[daisy293]

love it! love the spoken word. i want to marry just so i can hear the spoken word lol.

[ArisNajeeb]

You inspire me. Period. I write, I've performed once, but I can only strive to be like you. I know we are all different, but it's so "refreshing", if you will, to hear somebody that speaks their mind, and moves people at the same time. Your alliteration is absolutely amazing. You're just a master of your art. Keep it up.

[AfroVibez]

I heard Raf at Def poetry Jam and I thought in typical Courtney accent (despite being Afro-British) 'he is alwight'...but this piece totally authenticates him as a potential spoken word artist…

[chizoyvonne01]

i luv u!!!!!!!!!! ur just too amazin

[WOLVESVIDS]

YOU FREAKEN GENIUS!!! PLEASE QUIT DA MUSIC GAME SO I CN CATCH U ON TOUR SPITTN DAT SPOKEN WORD!!!wow...u r number one on my list!

[flybwoy89]

For fuck's sake! Stop clapping while he's speaking! Wtf it takes soo much away from the performance it's not even for funny, or fair to the fuckin perfomer! Wait until the end to show your appreciation, jesus!

[iceprincess1257]

@flybwoy89 dude i get what you're saying and all, but how do you expect them not to clap? this guy is amazing. i was practically clapping while i was watching it.

[itsneil9]

[DropBeatsNotBombs10]

Honestly, every time I listen to you my breath is taken.

[cattie0aven]

Wow. I am really impressed with your poetry - the beauty and the flow and the words and the content.

Seriously - it is a rare person in our world who would turn down corporate shit like that. I'm really proud of you, man. :)

[fame925]

[upgradde29]

so sick

[Raidelle]

he is amazing .

however thinks this guy is a fag or some shit.

grow some balls and see if you can do something with your life and stand up and speak your words through art. and try to get thousands and fans, and have the ability to move others to tears.

i would love to see , so shut the fuuuccck up

[jamalfsr]

an inspiration, for me anyway, i dont care about his life out of his poetry, but yeah his fast-foward speech and emphasis put a stamp of rage to his effect

[dannymal13]

he reminds me of a young Danny Hoch...i enjoy his style its an amazing narrative

[mayaandalexa]

friggin awsome poem.

this guy makes my poems look like shit

[qchad]

GOOD stuff. I don't like advertising and corps. but if you're an "adult" then you gotta blame yourself for falling for the ads and endorsements no matter how psychologically marketed it is. Why would you really buy something unless YOU like it. We can't have sheep counting scapegoats.

[sarahlauren22]

love him

[ramunenke]

"Because I know that if you let them rent the legs you stand on, they will be gone from under you"
