B.o.B - Letters From Vietnam [iTunes Bonus Track] CDQ

[mariahgirl1234]

i love this song. I love this music. i love his voice! way to go Bobby Ray:)<3

[JustChrisMusic]

This needs to be B.o.B's lane. Not strange ass clouds n shit. i dug the new track with andre 3000 tho.

[jr4chargers]

@JustChrisMusic he has always made all types of songs. I like them all.

[DamnGermanKid]

B.o.B is talking bout real shit man...

[Sakor998]

His musical palette is quite impressive.

[imEvrA]

im using this song for a vietnam assignment. any hints :)

[rey734]

This touched me when i first heard it... real music. form a real artist.

[codedigimon]

the greatest since whole loaf bread

NEGGA

[archlordian88]

more like Beasting on Beats

[greyez7]

A video for this would've been badass

[NastyAlexxx]

This is real music. 

[jdflauta]

How about Bombs Over Baghdad? Does anyone even know why he raps?

[jr4chargers]

@jdflauta what are you talking about?

[jdflauta]

@jr4chargers He woke himself up with music and uses it to urge people to accept peace and a new consciousness rejecting the wars and warlike mentality of today (same with outkast see B.o.B.). He wants us all to accept and populate our personal planet b-o-b by opening your eyes and seeing a new world around us made in love (Titan A.E.). It's crazier than any other suggestion, but it makes sense when you listen and know where he's coming from.

[thethugangel63]

like the coolest song ever

[QueTeeLocc]

He Is Such An Underated Star , Smh He Makes Really Good Music.

[krabspong88]

The soldiers.... enough said !

[bannana496]

One Word - EDUCATED <-----

[ECityking]

Most under-rated artist in my opinion, he does his own thing and he is very talented, he can do anything. hes just getting started. hope to see alot more from b.o.b ... thanks T.I

[awsomenova11]

dang where da rap.. how did this turn so WHITE?

[gostraelkyrial]

@awsomenova11 Music has no colour.

[iLoveBobbyRayJr]

@awsomenova11 how is it white, cause he sing. WTF he is an all around artist.

[nickman310]

@awsomenova11 Mr. awsomenova11, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

[audiomoore]

@nickman310 stolen from Billy Madison...

[connorj19951]

@awsomenova11 in the words of alan, you're a r'tard

[BARNABYthePENGUIN]

in all honesty he makes GREAT music. I applaud B.o.B. this is true music.

[oHardZo]

@BABYboozer101 I agree :)

[TheCaptainDee]

God damn how come i havent heard this :( Its so beautiful. B.o.B has an incredible voice

[radiateloveandlawls]

Good message, this is the kind of music that should be out there on radio since the majority of society is affected by media. Obvs they want us to become something else as part of their plan. STAND UP.

[TheUNCTarheels35]

I just wish the radio would play good music, good concept songs like this. If only...

[Havefunkush]

@TheUNCTarheels35 The radio does play this gay ass shit dumbass

[TheUNCTarheels35]

@Havefunkush your sick dude. stop trying to act cool by swearing.

[Havefunkush]

Notice how the majority of the crowd is suburban white kids

whites are the ones who are truly ruining mdoern music as we know it

from the owners of these record labels who distribute garbage rap music and decide what gets radio play

to the stupid suburban white teenagers supporting this garbage in masses

fuck white people

OFWGKTA

[gottabethebest1]

@Havefunkush racist...

[Havefunkush]

@gottabethebest1 bitch...

[thelittleemo1]

@Havefunkush

I really hope this is sarcastic. The majority of people who like OF are "stupid suburban white teenagers".

[aceracer19]

@Havefunkush Do you realize that Tyler the Creator straight up says he hates what the black community is about. He hates how he can't be into stuff like slipknot and other stuff because he's black. What you're doing is no better. Why can't people get that black and white is bullshit. It's personality, not skin color. get over yourself, I love both B.o.B and OFWGKTA .. I'm small town white who wants to live in a city. My music taste is varied. Who gives a fuck what my skin looks like.

[BDOTCHAOS]

@Havefunkush if you're saying all of this why you listening to him in the first place?

& so what if white people like him? (im not white but thats still racist)

if your so anti-B.o.B don't listen to his music and go and listen to some ofwgkta, simple...

[bigblue23net]

Fuck this faggot main stream bitch. OFWGKTADGAF

[AvvRham]

@bigblue23net

ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL DON'T GIVE A FUCK

Fag Damagers

Fuck B.o.B.

[jr4chargers]

sad story, bitch cheated on him, she didnt really love him. =/

[eminemisbomb]

this is his best album ever

[louism55arthy]

@eminemisbomb considering he only has one album...

[Poloking1967]

gotta respect the creativity he's taking rap/hip-hop to a whole another level

[draztik]

@Poloking1967 this isnt rap/hip hop.. its a good song tho

[TheTurkgamer]

kudi =b.o.b

[wigwambam]

@TheTurkgamer no

[TheTurkgamer]

@wigwambam oh yes

[DrSuperManDude]

This song is amazing with the lyrics but it could use a little work in some areas but i love it

[xxiscr3amp4pixx]

[thatguywhomakestuts]

[RizzoAstronama]

@jbone4927 I thought it was for bobby Ray...

[flam3dout]

[taolapro321phe]

some where stil have love, i'm vietnamese and tks B.o.B.

[2paczfan]

really good

[getafriend47]

he didnt get his name from that song idiot.. his name is bob

[sub2me4mysub]

@getafriend47 As a teenager, Simmons was greatly influenced by Atlanta hip-hop, and chose his stage name B.o.B as a tribute to the Outkast song "B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad)". thats right from a bio about him

[eclipse12345bjs]

woulda been a good song for dear John haha

[StoGi97]

B.o.B. , Kid Cudi and Lupe Fiasco - RAP & ROCK :)

[VietCrea]

what does B.O.B have to do with vietnam? i dont get the name

[sub2me4mysub]

@VietCrea B.o.B got his name from a Outkast song that was called B.O.B. which was bombs over Baghdad. So this song kinda compares to it.  B.o.B is awesome by the way

[ColdplayKid112]

@sub2me4mysub Actually that song has nothing to do with his name, listen to his song, "Generation Lost" he didnt like Bobby Ray so he went by B.o.B when he got signed.

[sub2me4mysub]

@ColdplayKid112 As a teenager, Simmons was greatly influenced by Atlanta hip-hop, and chose his stage name B.o.B as a tribute to the Outkast song "B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad)". That is part of a sentence directly from a bio about him

[sub2me4mysub]

@ColdplayKid112 As a teenager, Simmons was greatly influenced by Atlanta hip-hop, and chose his stage name B.o.B as a tribute to the Outkast song "B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad)". That is part of a sentence directly from a bio about him and by the way i have listing to generation lost a billion times i know what he says

[ColdplayKid112]

@sub2me4mysub trollface.jpeg

[Pfootball79]

B.o.B., Kid CuDi, Travie McCoy (if he counts), and definitely Chiddy Bang is bring back Hip-Hop, at least for me they are...Now I need to see them all in Concert together!!

[JjM91084]

@Pfootball79 No Travis McCoy does not count. Went to Jay-Z/Eminem concert in Detroit and BOB opened, his set was alright, but ford field is a tough place to play in for concerts. his unplugged set on mtv showed his pure artistry tho. bob kid cudi lupe fiasco for sure is great music, they should get their own venue going for a concert

[Pfootball79]

Kid CuDi, B.o.B. and Chiddy Bang is bringing back Hip Hop...at least for me!!!

[latenite11106]

@stephengerondakis, those are 2 very good new up and coming rappers, but youre not familiar with lupe fiasco? personally, i think hes much more talented than both BOB and CUDI, he sends a much more positive message, BOB is going on tour with hinm soon...

P.S. i was a big fan of CUDI's M.O.T.M. 1, M.O.T.M. 2, not so much

[Baseballzowner77]

umm... this is a decent song but really you need to listen to Uncommon Valor: A Vietnam Story by Jedi Mind Tricks if you want a real touch of the debacle that was The Vietnam War.

[tossintowers36]

not do be a dick and burst everyones bubble but if you think this is true shit look up R.A. the rugged man "story of an uncommon valore" its about as real as it gets with R.A

[monkeyFCB]

B.o.B is the future

KiD CuDi is the future

We want a featuring !

[MegaAznboy123]

Thang cho :D

[HBaileyAlice]

OH i'm from VIETNAM!!! Can't believe this.

[OhMyGEEZY]

can't get into it sorrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyy

[imariotx567]

This is brilliant.

[googlyflop]

wowowowow!!! B.o.B is amazing with rock!

[882hardy]

B.o.B and KiD CuDi are the two of the best rappers because they do something different :')

[llwillyrapper]

"""im a new rapper g2 chanel thanks

[theyazz40]

some of his songs are pretty weird but atleast he's original

[Jonias7]

You do realize just because this song isn't about something that happened to him personally that doesn't change change the great concept of the song. It's not very strong, but maybe bob could update this and work on doing it more. Stupid rap fans think that stuff like this is "white music" and hate it when rappers do this stuff, but B.o.B is more of an actual artist, not some fake artist like the Franchise Boyz or Chamillionaire. This dude is not afraid to really experiment- A REAL artist.

[xxfinisherxx]

@Jonias7 a gree with all that...except that part about chamillionaire WTF?!? hes got hella good shit

[tubularguppy]

@Jonias7 yea dude...cham aints fake...listen to his newer shit? its fresh

[MaximusTheChosenOne]

@tubularguppy lol Chamillionaire is just awful

[immalaptopgangster]

@Jonias7 Chamillionaire is really good actually

[mar27sha27]

@immalaptopgangster No he' not

[mydadcankillurs]

@Jonias7 Do you realize that you said rap isn't real music?

[EmceeSuperDog]

@Jonias7 Chamillionaire aint fake homm'

[GolfWang311]

@EmceeSuperDog yea he is, have you ever seen chamillionaire play a guitar? actually sing? B.O.B can do everything.. cool chaillionaire "rides dirty" that song fuckin sucks anyways haha

[rayvin213]

@Jonias7 gree. him, lupe and maybe em in the same category// true artists



[CircusCalamity]

The intro reminds me of Smashing Pumpkins' "Mayonaise".

[DTDproductionz]

BoB and eminem are the only rap artists thaat putt there heart into there songz and lyriicz :)) x

[patr1ckk3ll3y]

@DTDproductionz Theyre nowhere near the only ones..

[thedrumdude97]

bob is the only rap that i like cuz hes fuckin awesome

[0neJay]

I hate that most of people know him and listens to him just for "Airplanes". He has so much better songs, this one is great too!

[bretzky78]

@0neJay okai list then JAY !!

[0neJay]

@bretzky78 well, Ghost in the Machine is one. No Genre mixtape also has some great tracks. I recommend to listen to it.

[bretzky78]

@0neJay ohh your naming tracks from his CD which i already have...

[0neJay]

@bretzky78 then you should already know that he has better songs than Airplanes! am i right

[DcuStudios2]

@0neJay I agree, I'm digging his mixtape "B.o.B vs Bobby Ray" right now!

[dr92144]

@0neJay Sure ! like Wiz Khalifa and " Black & Yellow"

[Sleepymike91]

@0neJay i got into him from dont let me fall.

[stamaxo]

how can you dislike this guy! All those people need to listen to some Justin Beiber and Hannah montana or something

[peyaah]

The best part about B.o.B is that you're allowed to hate any genre of music and still love him. He's in every genre (NEW MIXTAPE DROPS THIS WEEK "NO GENRE") so you can like some of his songs and love others. He's pop, rap, hip hop, rock, folk, and more to come most likely all combined into one amazing artist.

[03PinkRocks]

i love b.o.b because some of their songs are sad and some are happy, it's impossible to hate them.

[SaintHop]

aye i did not no bob was dis fuckn talented i mean i new he was aight but i got the cd the other day and god damn its hot. the way buddy captures pain in a song is great

[HarajukuBarbie46]

this song is really beautiful... :)

[hellomyfriend2053]

What about SSGT Barry Sadler: Letters From Vietnam

[Rosiebluee]

I heard this the first time at the Paramore concert yesterday and I was like damn I have to look this up when I get home, so beautiful :')

[xXEmziipopXx]

@Rosiebluee same here <3

[beffiexox]

@Rosiebluee lol same, where did you see Paramore. I saw them in Newcastle on Thursday :D

[Rosiebluee]

@beffiexox I saw them in the O2 Arena in London ;) xx

[beffiexox]

@Rosiebluee they were AMAZING werent they

[DancingFan28]

I love this song. Is it just me, or does the beginning sound similar to Wake Up by Arcade Fire?

[LostonThamesStreet]

@DancingFan28 it really does. just an acoustic version. 

[rynog55]

@DancingFan28 yeah it did haha i was humming Wake up and was like"this sounds the same" lol

[saphira1001]

This is a beautiful song. I was really surprised when I heard this at the Paramore concert last Saterday.

[dingdongvroomvroom]

i heard this for the 1st time last night and im so in love with it ! it's one of those songs where you say: dang i wish i'd written that :/

it's so beautiful, he's so talented :)

[LostonThamesStreet]

I think it's neat that, sure. He's a rapper. Sure, he's from the ghetto of Atlanta (so am I, gotta represent ;)). But not just anyone can pull of putting Eleanor Rigby into a hip hop song. Or a Vampire Weekend song.

[irepnorthLDN]

B.o.B Is definitely one of the best artist out. Why? Because after listening to adventures of bobby ray you can see he Is Influenced by various genre's of music. So he appeals to a variety of audience. Hopefully more artists will start doing this as It will open people's ears to a variety of music

[chris93TV]

The entire album is brilliant! Can't wait for a next one!

[Phamtrinh1210]

He got my attention with Nothing on you, Airplanes,... And now he got my respect. This is a beautiful song and it proves he can also rap and sing.

From Vietnam :)

[herbsmanish]

this guy really deserves more attention and since i started to listen to his songs i think i can't stop listening to them now, he truly is amazing and this is mostly because he is very versatile

[kiandra9]

I just made a B.o.B fan page on Facebook, soo if you're a fan then go like it. He's an awesome artist and deserves much more attention.

[2cjones]

BoB is my new favorite artist! Hes amazing!

[Thatonecoolkid91]

The 5 people who didn't like this are probably the Jonas Brothers, miley cyrus and justin bieber

[TheSonicLemonade]

Why does it have to be a bonus track?! This song is amazing.

[MzOrangeandBlu]

Real talk, Wale, Kid Cudi, and B.o.B. make me believe that hip hop won't ever die. I know the quantity of great rappers isn't here anymore, but as long as there are a few making music like this, hip hop is going to last forever.

[louism55arthy]

drake couldnt pull off a song like this with so much meaning ***

[patr1ckk3ll3y]

@louism55arthy fireworks..

[louism55arthy]

@patr1ckk3ll3y got nowhere near as much meaning, B.o.B has described something that he hasnt experienced and made it sound like he was involved

[patr1ckk3ll3y]

@louism55arthy i love b.o.b, but youre giving him a lil too much credit..he has better songs than these and to me it sounds like a poem i read about the civil war..he probably used that as inspiration. this song is great and so is fireworks if you actually listen to it..drake was one of the best underground in 09..then he fucked it up, go listen to drakes mixtapes as far as creativity in lyrics, b.o.b isnt that good..j cole,lupe,jay elec and drake are better MCS than b.o.b..hes still amazing tho

[louism55arthy]

@patr1ckk3ll3y drake is overrated seriously, agree with you about lupe, j cole, and jay electronica are amazing but he is up there with them. b.o.b is different and is more of an artist

[patr1ckk3ll3y]

@louism55arthy you could cally anyone overrated honestly..shit people call b.o.b overrated..drake sings,writes and spits..plus he can write beautiful r&b music [unthinkable,ready for you] their both extremely talented as artists

[JhuntdaProdigy]

@louism55arthy TML wasn't his best work by any means. His mixtapes "So Far Gone" & "Thank Me Later" were better representations of him as an artist. TML was still pretty nice though. I like Drake & B.o.B. both, I'm personally looking forward to those two collaborating

[ThisChick978]

i love this song sooo much <3 its super cute!

[royalnash]

this shit sucks along with the jonas brothers

[LostonThamesStreet]

When tis song came on, I just stopped and listened. It's beautiful.

[MegaAznboy123]

I love this song <3

[pizzle25]

3 people are communists

[stephengerondakis]

This is a very good song! If it werent for B.o.B or Kid Cudi, I wouldnt be listening to Rap/Hip Hop no more.

[lukygmoney]

@stephengerondakis I wouldnt even call it hip hop or rap, its like they have their own different Genre

[jayrome2791]

@stephengerondakis wat about lupe?

[doerunboi44]

@stephengerondakis dont forget about j cole

[josh0894]

@stephengerondakis Have u not heard of the great Lupe Fiasco

[rayovac2010]

@stephengerondakis Amen to that.

[lilmurphy01]

@stephengerondakis Dont forget eminem and TI
