+MS. ILBB seriously some black people are so simple and never learn from the past. soon as they are established they will join the anti black parade. have they forgotten about travon already? nice thought though.
MS. ILBB right. problem is getting other black people to understand that. most are either too stupid, uncle toms, crabs or simple street/ghetto punks. however, there are others like you and i. you see our race currently has very few good, talented, well meaning people in it. we are surrounded by fools. i am drawing up a diagram to discribe the current problem. it is people like us that need to stick together.
MS. ILBB you know somehow we need our own country. not sure how to get it. we need a country for only smart nationalist black people. we can build our own china. speaking of which chinese and indian immigrants get treated better than us. everyone is joining the haterd and violence against our race. simple blacks be like "yaaah mexicans"...smh. i've subbed to your channel will update you.
I knew I had to look this song up, that documentary had me re-evaluating my thoughts on Hiliary Vs Trump...in the end are we better off either way, or will it be more of the same, the documentary is one of the best on Netflix.
what makes me mad is. that whenever usher makes a song with a deep meaning it hardly gets views ( like this song) but whenever he makes stuff about sex etc it gets over 100 milions views what's happening to this generation man......
I wish usher would make some of those older sounding songs like confessions, you make me wanna, nice and slow, burn and the peak of his great music in my opinion.
Too many things have changed. Usher matured, R&B is no longer relevant and grown competitors like Chris Brown and Jason Derulo have changed things. Here I Stand was like Confessions, except the music was more mature and actually had more quality. He did Pop and was successful. The R&B he makes now is like "Dive" and it just does not sell, unless its generic like "I Don't Mind".
+kfeems Bro you gonna post a comment like that on a song like this? How about showing respect for this track and what he's trying to do by releasing it?
PLEASE READ THIS: I am going to explain black lives matter the best i can. If there are 8 houses, and 1 is on fire, what's gonna happen? The fire department is going to come and put water on that house. why? because that house needs the most help and because that house matters. Now when the fire department helps that one house on fire, they're not saying that all the other houses don't matter. but they are focusing on the house that needs the most help and matters. That's what Black Lives Matter is, we're not saying that all lives DONT matter but we're just focusing on which lives needs the most attention, which lives needs the most help and which lives MATTER the most right now. just like the fire department. ;)
Good comment I just wouldn’t use the word matter like that. You are ignorantly discrediting the ethnic heritage of all lives. I am a refugee from Russia and you need to use different term than matters
I have been singing this all day today. I love that it's a song with a message, but still has a great beat. Songs with messages do not need to be boring. Thanks Usher!
I'm with you Usher 100 percent, this is a wonderful song with a powerful message. Break The Chains of Social Injustice, #DontLookAway "don't act like you saving us, it's still the same" love how you are using your platform to try to make a difference.
+Veeluv Franklin 100% , This is about breaking the chains of racism in this country & around the world. Much LOVE to Usher for standing up for those who can't speak for themselves in such a powerful manner!
When I heard about Alton Sterling this was the song that came to my head. I listened to it and cried. Can't believe things like this happen in this world. It is absolutely disgusting #ripAltonSterling
This is the kind of information that the news should be putting out instead of just sensationalizing it. News should be straight information, not a drama show. Thank you Usher
deep. I can't explain my words. in your country, my country. only one thing Christina Grimmie was on my mind while watching this video. have peace on earth
+Netta Harris yes but were excluding all other races what about Latinos I can't tell you how many times I've been judge for being Latina I've faced so many racial comments looks and just racism in general every other race has gone through it and it's not fair to exclude Asians or other races
Beautiful dedication to these people who lost their lives in cold blood, for no reason. I can't wait to see the day America stands up... not just the black community.
i write this with tears in my eyes from a perspective of a 15 year old black female. This is sickening and has really moved me. I am very proud that you (artists) have chosen to make a commendable and factual song using your influence to get the message out to the people. This is very outrageous and yes this song is 100% accurate and it is just sad. Thank you sooo much for not just turning a blind eye to what is happening in our community but speaking up on it. This is what we need to be hearing. Positive and true music because the senseless violence needs to stop. I don't know how else to show my respect for this act. I first saw the song performed live on TV and was interested so i looked it up. Thumbs up!!! You have earned so much of my respect and honor and i am a huge fan. Thank you for being the example and hopefully others will follow in your footsteps. This is important and our well being is in a state of emergency. This needs to be heard all around the world! Much love a brown girl. #chains #blacklivesmatter2 #deep #mythoughts
It's sad because it's already 2020 but we are still here fighting racism. I really hope justice will be served and racism will no longer be present in every part of this world.

as a tongan livin in black and mexican community my whole life, we tongans witchall. frm south sac to israel we will all be together. God bless yall. kanye brought me here
13th documentary has me here. I'm now seeing why the the whole usher std story appeared.....welll they have been good at distracting us this long. Smdh THIS should've been shared 3 times for every meme or post that misdirected our attention to "that" foolishness. Smh we must do better
Thank you Usher for doing social justice theme song and video! #Blacklivesmatter #Sayhername ...its nice to see artist speaking up and out about social issues.
It makes me sad that something as superficial as the skincolor of a HUMAN-being still stands as an issue for people in different parts of the world. We have sent robots to other worlds, discovered the history of our globe and other amazing things, but looking eye to eye with your fellow man, regardless of appearance, is still not a norm. I don't even live in the states and i am a white male ( I shouldn't even mention that) but i always have and always will fight for equality, respect and love between ALL people. I can't stand oppression and injustice. Let your voice be heard, there is hope.
I'm going to start driving soon and I'm actually really scared to start being out on my own with all the murders of black men happening regularly now, it's sad because i should be looking forward to driving but how can I?
I know I'm late, but I'm sorry. As a white person, I have no idea how it must feel to be scared to start driving because you're afraid of what might happen. I'm sorry you have to suffer at the hands of ignorant, racist fools.
A simple heartfelt statement, sums up so much. :'( What a way to make your civilians feel America... Sort out your system, police are servants for the people, all the people.
Really powerful video and song, but don't take all of these reports too close to heart without researching first. I haven't done the research, but I hate when others jump to conclusions without seeing the situation from all sides. Whether it's the hoi polloi, or the cops themselves in these situations.
This is a really powerful song. But if black people really want to make a difference in American we need to start by stopping all this black on black violence. You can't win a war if you're fighting against your own soldiers
I'm a longtime fan of Usher's, but I'm not here to Critique Usher right now. I gotta Appreciate & Respect the Realness of these lyrics in this song right now. It's Real Talk & that's 💯. I Commend you Usher for using your Talents to touch on such a serious topic & bring Awareness to the issues that hits home for so many of our youth of today. Thanks.

From the Mexican/Hispanic community, I just wanna say we stand with our black American brothers
respect. I saw ya'll holding it down at the million man march. loved it

nice thought though.

i've subbed to your channel will update you.
huge amounts of respect to usher for displaying these types of subjects so everybody can see.
Usher using Marvin Gaye techniques of making his music context relevant to real life issues. LEGEND.
Yes
mhmm
+N.A K he is!
"13th" brought me here.
damian walker same
Same
damian walker same. it also enraged me and made me sad.
same
Me too
Who else is here because of the documentary 13th??
me
it was so eye opening
Ty Pointzes I had all kind of emotions going on inside me when I watch it.✊✊✊
I knew I had to look this song up, that documentary had me re-evaluating my thoughts on Hiliary Vs Trump...in the end are we better off either way, or will it be more of the same, the documentary is one of the best on Netflix.
yup
R.I.P to My Black Brothers ✊🏾
warsametoomuch and Sisters ✊🏾
Some deep shit man
So true
Don't forget him George Floyd. It's sad how this song is still relevant today after what has happened these past few days #blacklivesmatter we stand
RIGHT..I SAID THE SAME THING 💔✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿🤎🖤🙌🏽🙏🏽
what makes me mad is.
that whenever usher makes a song with a deep meaning it hardly gets views ( like this song)
but whenever he makes stuff about sex etc
it gets over 100 milions views
what's happening to this generation man......
People don't like hearing the truth that's why bro
His bosses gain nothing by promoting this single, infact they would probably anger their own paymasters.
Thats just how it is. same as Nas. people dont want to hear the truth.
Ally Urie 🤣🤣🤣🤣.. They like sex more
How do you expect the white people to view this?? Racism is designed.
PERFECT SONG FOR THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT WE ARE ALL FIGHTING FOR
I'm a simple man, I hear usher, I press like
like that im the same
i feel like i have seen you and that comment somewhere before -_- hmmmmm...
+Nickolas Faz Dejavu?
Nickolas Faz like hundreds of times on 9gag

+kfeems Bro you gonna post a comment like that on a song like this? How about showing respect for this track and what he's trying to do by releasing it?
Usher is 37yo now, no 19 now He talk about the world and it's better the vagina woman.
+wilson hill Foh Lame ass nigga
Respect to Usher ✊🏻
Watch the message fly over peoples head... Smh
No one will care unless we make a fool out of ourselves
Too late.
+emilion ema thats the the ugly truth when will we get justice when will white privilege stop #blacklivesmatter
+Dierius Abby all lives matter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
v1per 177 that's a very white thing to say ask Charlemagne if all lives matter
+Dierius Abby no my good sir it is not all lives matter
Usher is still one of the realist artists which actually promote subjects that other artists ignore because there scared to lose fans
So so so much respect for this 💕

It's been 2 years from now but i think this comment explain everything
Good comment I just wouldn’t use the word matter like that. You are ignorantly discrediting the ethnic heritage of all lives. I am a refugee from Russia and you need to use different term than matters
finally a new song from nas I know I'm not the only one who was waiting
***** word
Check out Do What I Do: Scarface ft Nas Rick Ross and Zro, The Ghetto: The Game ft Nas and will.i.am, Forbes List : Dave East ft Nas.
shonha1 yeah saw those but but I didn't look at tf the date
Same NAS only real one left
His album is coming out in 2016.
175 cops dislike this track. How can you dislike this track?!
+hey there I am white too...
+Az B thats true asf but chill he didn't do anything wrong
Only because it tells the truth. That's why they don't like it.
This song is so powerful and profound. Thank you Usher for using your platform to bring awareness to racial injustice and gun violence.
I have been singing this all day today. I love that it's a song with a message, but still has a great beat. Songs with messages do not need to be boring. Thanks Usher!
No justice no peace .
Great song and video.
Nas's verse is INCREDIBLE! King 🙌🏾
I'm with you Usher 100 percent, this is a wonderful song with a powerful message. Break The Chains of Social Injustice, #DontLookAway "don't act like you saving us, it's still the same" love how you are using your platform to try to make a difference.

Thank You Usher
Nas still got it. Great song
Right he ate that shit
I just cry listening to this song. So much respect for this song and people who worked on.
Why hasn't this track gotten more attention? Huge track with a real message!
When I heard about Alton Sterling this was the song that came to my head. I listened to it and cried. Can't believe things like this happen in this world. It is absolutely disgusting #ripAltonSterling
the documentary 13th is so revolting ✊🏾 #blacklivesmatter
This song needs attention again it's too underrated
Nas did his thang. He still got the ability to make u listen.
Underrated song
We need more music like this blasting out on the daily... watch this space !
This is the kind of information that the news should be putting out instead of just sensationalizing it. News should be straight information, not a drama show. Thank you Usher
deep. I can't explain my words. in your country, my country. only one thing Christina Grimmie was on my mind while watching this video. have peace on earth
i agree
itsmedez wow thats crazy ❤ same here 😟😔💔💔
#BLACKLIVESMATTER
The people who dislikes this has no heart or don't like this song I like it cause its so deep.#blacklivesmatter
All lives matter
+Nancy Reyes MMMHUH . WHITES ALREADY MATTER . THEY NEED A #BLACKLIVESMATTER
What about all lives matter
+Caden Watkins I completely agree with you
+Netta Harris yes but were excluding all other races what about Latinos I can't tell you how many times I've been judge for being Latina I've faced so many racial comments looks and just racism in general every other race has gone through it and it's not fair to exclude Asians or other races
Beautiful dedication to these people who lost their lives in cold blood, for no reason. I can't wait to see the day America stands up... not just the black community.
How someone can ain't like and give a dislike at this song? Usher you're a legend, I loved the song and I loved the message who you're passing to us!
I swear to god I am in love this song, everything about it is amazing
just heard the little girl on the radio crying begging for justice....why have we come to this?
i write this with tears in my eyes from a perspective of a 15 year old black female. This is sickening and has really moved me. I am very proud that you (artists) have chosen to make a commendable and factual song using your influence to get the message out to the people.

I Love The Song, & Message. Good Job Usher.
I'm in tears after this.. You get tired of seeing how much acrimony consumes our society. Not only in the African American community but the world.
Thank you Usher for using your platform for a greater good. #DONTLOOKAWAY
As the great freedom fighter Winston Peter Mckintosh said "Keep your fucking peace, give me my equal rights and justice".
Just a great song, by a great man
we stand with our brothers ! 🙌
The 1000 people who disliked this song deserve to be stripped of their human rights.
Just as these innocent people where stripped of theirs.
13th documentary has me here. I'm now seeing why the the whole usher std story appeared.....welll they have been good at distracting us this long. Smdh THIS should've been shared 3 times for every meme or post that misdirected our attention to "that" foolishness.
Smh we must do better
great song and meaning :-)
Thank you for showing us that you care usher✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Keep up with the spirit Ush!I love you unconditionally.
Rest in peace Alton Sterling
Usher... this is a FREAKING GREAT SONG... YOU HAVE TO COME TO MEXICO.
+tygaoscar jnr Am. pretty sure I did... i liked The rhytym so hard.
+JackerBoy Lol you commented first there's no way you could've listened to the song...
+T-Mac and Cheese The song realased 11 minutes ago. I commented 7 minutes ago. anyway. I loved The song.
+T-Mac and Cheese lol and the song came out days before this was posted
D. Foxx Where? On CD?
Got tears in my eyes
Thanks for this song Usher, Nas, Bibi!!!!
one word ...................... "FINALLY"
Anyone here Usher Raymond V and Naveyd's voices in the beginning?
Are those his sons O_o. Cool.
+NoahUploads Usher V. is in the beginning saying "Liberty and Justice for All" and Naviyd is saying "Pray" I believe in the the second verse
nique Yup
Ohh wow. In fact double wow
REAL AND SAD SONG.
THANKS USHER FOR DESCRIBING THE REALITY.
i always cry once it gets to the sean bell part. 😭💔
Why did it take so long for a song about the INJUSTICE to be released.... But total RESPECT ! #ALLlivesmatter
exactly. like they were afraid to do so or something or until it reached a point where every city it kept occurring
There's actually a couple of songs that were put out about the injustice, this jus happens to be the only track you listened to.
+MK i didn't realise maybe because this is done by a more mainstream artist?
Anishaa Baby yeah, but either way, it's a great song with a great message.
+Anishaa Baby Check #August Alsina- HIP-HOP
i came because of 13th
Beautiful and chilling...very moving. Thank you. We cannot stand for this!
I LOVE IT !!!! Its abt time someone highlight the injustice of us black people 👍👍 Do u Usher. Luv u 💞😘😘
Thank you Usher for doing social justice theme song and video! #Blacklivesmatter #Sayhername ...its nice to see artist speaking up and out about social issues.
Even Tho We're Free, They Will Always Treat "Us" As Slaves.
B line is banging, lovely combi, voices really work well together on this track. Love it, change will come just got to stick together xx
Nas Is Fire🔥 Such a good song!!!!
It makes me sad that something as superficial as the skincolor of a HUMAN-being still stands as an issue for people in different parts of the world. We have sent robots to other worlds, discovered the history of our globe and other amazing things, but looking eye to eye with your fellow man, regardless of appearance, is still not a norm.
I don't even live in the states and i am a white male ( I shouldn't even mention that) but i always have and always will fight for equality, respect and love between ALL people. I can't stand oppression and injustice. Let your voice be heard, there is hope.
I'm going to start driving soon and I'm actually really scared to start being out on my own with all the murders of black men happening regularly now, it's sad because i should be looking forward to driving but how can I?
😢
Scarbro be careful. know that you are loved and universally connected to us all. We love you and i will keep you in my prayers. Be safe.
Fun Is Free thanks that really made my day 😊
I know I'm late, but I'm sorry. As a white person, I have no idea how it must feel to be scared to start driving because you're afraid of what might happen. I'm sorry you have to suffer at the hands of ignorant, racist fools.
A simple heartfelt statement, sums up so much. :'( What a way to make your civilians feel America... Sort out your system, police are servants for the people, all the people.
Come thru Usher! Song is fiyah. love the Tidal video too!
wow, I almost cried. soo moving. Well done Usher!
Any Word on the new Album it's a year late...
+TheSteamKing in many interviews he's stated that he is in no rush.
I know I was just curious to see if there was any new news on it. I'm Impatient :P
+TheSteamKing Its being released next month
***** really? where did you hear that?
He's trying to build so much anticipation for it, so it could sell well. Clever. It's titled "U.R" that's all i know.
Right before #RiseUpOctober
Just beautiful. Thanks Usher for something like that. We do not talk enough about those people. That all these people rest in peace....
I have 3 boys and I pray everyday nothing happens to them. I love this song.
De la frappe ! :D
de la frappe à l'état pur!
Ha oui en effet oui
Nas the best part, like usual
Only Usher can make a song like this, and it be rockin! Go head Ush.
Salute my mans Usher💯💯💯
my cousin was shot by a police officer....😢
it was long ago tho
I am sorry for your lost. no matter how long ago it was, it is still wrong.
Jada Peterson ikr
if You love usher just press like ..
1 million? Song needs way more views. Not just a deep message, but great song. Period.
great track for so many reasons...
Really powerful video and song, but don't take all of these reports too close to heart without researching first. I haven't done the research, but I hate when others jump to conclusions without seeing the situation from all sides. Whether it's the hoi polloi, or the cops themselves in these situations.
i hear u
+John Hendrickson TYPICAL.
This is a really powerful song.
But if black people really want to make a difference in American we need to start by stopping all this black on black violence.
You can't win a war if you're fighting against your own soldiers
