- This week is about having a message
and spreading that message online.
What up, what up, what up? - What's up?
What's up?
So today they're shooting a viral video,
and hopefully these kids shoot a great video so they
can get their message out.
I wanted to make sure that we put ya'll in a cooler space.
The backdrop of Atlanta.
This should be your vision.
And what you see is what you want to shoot.
OK, so I'mma post these videos on HipHopDx for like 24 hours.
The person who gets the most views in 24 hours
is the person who will win this hit list.
All right. Playback.
[music playing]
(RAPPING) Do not conform to the patterns of this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind--
Romans 12:2.
Yo.
Stay woke.
Drug problems in my family, now I don't know which way to go.
Nobody invested in me.
A statistic is what I was destined to be.
Hard times turned to pain killers.
Now I'm wondering if this is how I should be.
I was born in addiction.
Now it's all up in my face.
I watched my mother slowly fade.
Now it's getting harder to deal with the pain.
Yo.
So besides the fact that Eli threw the Bible,
he also is not so much in sync with his lyrics.
And I've just noticed that he's figured
out a way to disguise the fact that he
doesn't know the lyrics.
So he does this little move where he spins around.
Now Eli, you might get away with this with other people,
but I see exactly what's going on.
You know, god is going to punish you for throwing
his Bible, but I'm just saying.
I told Miss London I should set it down, but was like, naw.
[music playing] - (RAPPING) Look.
Long live Lil' B. Babies dying.
Mamas crying.
[inaudible] keep on trying.
Cops was trying to us silent.
Stop the drama.
Believe in karma.
Got too many kids without they father.
That just make it harder.
And a world where there is peace,
that is not too far for reach.
Put the guns down in my city.
We can get a good night's sleep. Look.
Put the guns down, shawty.
Stop the crying at night.
Put the guns down, shawty.
Put the guns down, Shawty. - Good girl.
Raising them well.
Tyeler.
Chose to use the bridge, and she decided to use
the pillars on the bridge.
She throw the jacket down on the ground.
I feel like Tyeler is the best performer in the house.
These kids got a lot to live up to.
Well done. [music playing]
(RAPPING) Welcome to America, my country 'tis of thee.
Where we kill anyone with voices and say we land of the free.
Our oxygen's rotten and our own government's
plotting war and catastrophe, then they blame us.
It's blasphemy.
Can't contain us.
We have to speak. Man, it's crazy.
They try to make us confused 'cuz
they refuse to talk about what really happens on the news.
We gotta wake up, wake up, so they can't break us, break us.
So Amayah, she has a little bit more confidence
then I've seen her normally.
And then she breaks out and starts doing this step dance.
I've never seen her do this before.
Matter of fact, I didn't even think
she cared to dance or anything.
So to see her doing this, I'm like, damn.
OK. A breath of fresh air.
[music playing]
(RAPPING) Man, let it be known,
they killing us 'cuz they hate that we doin' it.
Not fast enough so they clapping it
just 'cuz we ain't in the field and we slavery gone.
They want to keep the division.
They want to keep us from living.
They want to keep us in prison.
They want to keep us minority.
That's why they killing our children.
Damn.
Sire.
At king hip hop.
I bring change, man.
[inaudible],, motivate and inspire.
Stay woke.
Woo!
This seems like the most passion I've seen
Sire have since he's been here.
I'm hearing things now at the video
that I didn't here in the studio that's in his rap.
He's on the right page with this.
You ready? [music playing]
(RAPPING) Nya Kasan.
Yeah.
We can get together as humans and put the guns
down 'cuz we need influence.
Everything ruined and we lost hope, so what are we doing?
Stop the violence and confusion.
Little boy grew up in a hood.
Is she supposed to stop like that, or is she just--
is that a part of the song?
(RAPPING) It's drive-bys, so stay woke.
The murders are no joke.
We killing just for dough.
Open your eyes and stay woke.
MALE SPEAKER: Get her some water, please.
FEMALE SPEAKER: Get her some water, Justin.
MALE SPEAKER: OK.
Sit down, honey.
Sit down sit down, sit down, sit down.
FEMALE SPEAKER: Nya. - Drink, honey.
Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink.
As I was doing my video, I just
felt myself just shuting down.
My head was just banging.
My chest-- like, my breathing was acting up.
FEMALE SPEAKER: Step to the side just a tiny bit, Ev.
Lemme get this air to her.
How do you feel, Nya?
MALE SPEAKER: Nya, you feel a little better?
Is Nya OK?
You sure?
You ain't gotta be OK yet.
You can just chill.
I'm just drinking water so I'll feel a little bit better.
I'm proud of myself for pushing through.
Hopefully my video go viral.
I'mma just tell ya'll exactly what's going to happen now
that you kinda OK, all right?
OK, what's going to happen is, I'mma leave these videos up

You need them to carry you?
You should make Sire carry you.
