Saints. I normally don't comment but I see where this is going. Music is art. It doesn't have to be a five point sermon. His message is very clear. To quote Life, ""The Realest" isn't about me being the realest.. It's about promoting authenticity & me finding & embracing who I am & who I was born 2 B". I pray we learn to enjoy art without having to critique it all the time. Love yall

Lifey has been doing this for years and being overly critical about his approach or style is not going to make him change it. Yall should know that by now. Lol just let Life do him and make the type of music his fans and supporters enjoy. The song is dope the video is dope. #Salute Fro W.U.N.D.A.S

I just discovered you and listened to your whole album on amazon prime. This was my favorite song. Thank you for making this.
Steve Waters
Dope song, this album is gonna bang

Ok Life is officially my second fav rapper next to myself. He gets his Col. 3:23 on. This guy spits his soul and couldn't care less about peoples opinions.
Stephen Maddox
for those who can't feel this song. it aint for you. Hip hop heads understand this. Japhia's lyrics are deep if you, like overtly preachy rap that's cool. I get enough teaching and sermons, from my pastor. I appreciate music for what it is, and if japhia wants to take some time in a song to be transparent about his inner thoughts, I'm cool with that. peace.
old enough
We love you Japhia!!!!!
Jay and Gee
Japhia made another Hip Hop Banger!!
Andrew Robinson
GOD IS GOOD!

Couldn't have said it better myself my friend. Well said.
