This conversation was amazing kings. As a woman I loved hearing men talk on this level about love and life. So proud of this work!

“Romance is the low hanging fruit of love.” - Damn.

"Love doesn't hurt. People hurt. Love is pure. Love is perfect. We channel it. It's traveling through a flawed system...Like water traveling through a dirty pipe."

As a black woman listening to this conversation......I am speechless....wow God bless you all for being so open

The age of the woman definitely plays a part in dating. When I was 22 years-old I had a different mindset than I did when I was 38 years-old.

These are the conversations that heal whatever this rift is that’s growing between black men and women. Thank you all for being present and authentic. It’s medicine!

“love is the greatest investment to transform the quality of life” ♥️

"You deserve to be invested in"- I so love that. That's a new affirmation for me. I deserve to be invested in through love.💜

“The start is actually just practicing love, you don’t get ready you just get in it.” A WORD.

Love how they all directly and indirectly dished out advice for Rodney like he was their lil brother.

“Love doesn’t hurt, people hurt” It’s the Gems for me! I love that Black Love is connected to these wise, honest, Black men (and women) who share their experiences for our benefit.

I really wish this was longer. It seemed like they were just getting into it when it ended. But I’m so grateful for this conversation, Rodney’s story actually helped me put into perspective a relationship that I had with a guy with similar feelings. He wasn’t at a point where he could express this the way Rodney did. As a black woman I want to listen more to what the black men in our community are thinking and feeling.

These conversations should definitely be longer. Love to see our men in this light. 🖤

Beleaf is the perfect person to lead these conversations

I only disagreed with one part. The young man who said he had to leave a good woman because he wasn’t ready was right to do. The point another man made was something along the lines of holding on to good people for dear life. If you know you aren’t good for a person, let them go so they can be good on their own or with someone else. It’s not fair to hurt good people especially when you’re doing it intentionally, because you don’t want to let them go. That’s selfish. But, this was a great conversation!

THIS IS THE POCKET!!! These round table of men and women SEPARATELY should happen more here. Men talk waaaayyyyy more honestly when women not around and in the BLACK community we need our men to take action! So maybe more like this black men can heal

Gratitude to these brothers for their openness and vulnerability. I love hearing men’s perspectives on love and relationships. 🙏🏽

They way he's speaking of Love is Biblical, this podcast is real nice!!!!!Keep it up my brothas!!!!!!

i haven’t even watched the whole video yet they just introduced themselves and i love their tone of voices .. calm, relaxed, and in control .

I like green sweaters honesty and transparency. No bullshitting.

"Love travels through a flawed system, getting rid of any residue..." 📌 This is a very liberating perspective. I have been blessed enough to experience the purity of love and the strength of its power to heal. You don't need to be perfect, perfect love casts out all fear. 🙂

Went to high school with Rodney. Had a feeling he would move on to do great things. Proud of him!

When the man in the blue hat touched on the topic of grief in connection to love. I really resonated with that. I see parts of myself in the man in the white jacket…. I am so afraid to love again solely because of the pain I felt previously, but now realizing the connection between love and grief….. the fact that even after all the grief I experienced I still choose to believe in love is truly profound and I should be proud of that. Love exists because we do. It just sucks that sometimes we don’t appreciate it until it’s gone. It will come again… but only if we are brave enough to let it in. Thank you for this! ❤

A round table of KINGS. Thank you all for allowing us to hear your perspectives!

A HEALTHY male discussion about today’s relationships and love! THIS is it.

I absolutely love seeing Black Men come together to have difficult conversations such as this. Thank you for your honesty kings . ❤

“The love we co-create together is Deeper than I ever thought I would experience with any woman” Powerfull Statment Kerega

The guy in the white has a very strong point---- at a certain time (age) in a woman's life, she seeks men who have a solid economic foundation. It doesn't mean that they're not willing to build something with the man, it just makes the man a more suitable option for immediate partnership.

Fact!! When “she’s solid, she’s solid.”🤷🏾‍♀️ I’ll rather build because we’re going to look back on our journey and see how far we’ve come.

I love hearing a man’s perspective on relationships and love❤

This was so so so so good. The guy in the white jacket is being vulnerable and knows exactly where he is but he needs to be healed inwardly spiritually. The guy in the blue Jacket is so wise and articulated love at the greatest way possible bc I can tell he had an illumination and an experience with Jesus. All men brought value to the table. I learned somethings watching and so honored to be a watcher of these men sharing their hearts. Thank you!

"When she solid, she gonna be solid!" Love it!!!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONVERSATION! Karega, is Peace! His spirit….I’m convinced he is an Angel walking amongst us! My God! Wish this could have been longer! Just as they were pouring into that brother, it was over! Part two please! ❤❤

“Im a hard person to love, but i love real hard”👏🏽

I thought Karega was maxxin in his introduction until I had to pause and hold back tears at 10:12 describing his losses facilitated the greatness of his black love experience. That was BEAUTIFUL!!

Dang it! The conversation always ends when it's getting good! I love love love love love yall's transparency and vulnerability. These episodes need to be longer.

Can we have a longer conversation pls...maybe 60 mins per episode?? This is soul food for men.

This was beautiful & so powerful. We need a part 2 please! This conversation needs to continue. So many layers to continue to unfold.

Wow, that was powerful. The guy with the white jacket on. I’m glad he recognized that. he’s not ready to get another relationship is great. Thanks for sharing fellas.🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾🤴🏾💜

“Nothing does what Love does. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Omg this was so refreshing to see attractive black men having intelligent and thought provoking conversation. And millennial men at that! This just gave me so much hope because these dating streets can be rough lol many blessings to you all 💕

I appreciate this young gentleman for their openness and their courage. I believe some love lessons are generational, environmental, mental and emotional maturity level.

“Cocreating a new world” with someone sounds amazing I love how he worded that

The right woman will help build what you don't have. She will strengthen your weaknesses just as you will hers.

This conversation was dope. I absolutely love how the gentlemen (brethren) spoke to the young man about his fears. 🖤🖤

It is so refreshing to see Black men this vulnerable. Thank you. I love you Black man!

So many gems dropped this episode!!! Please make these conversations longer.

Wow, 30 min definitely isn’t long enough! I love & appreciate being able to listen to conversations between men like this.

This was very insightful, and deep. I thank you young men for having the courage to be transparent and real..... This is so necessary to keep conversations ongoing about love and relationship with one another and how it evolves as we evolve. I wish those of us over the age of 50 would allow ourselves to be vunerable and transparent to open up to heal past hurts and experiences to heal and be truly available to love deeply again. Blessings Kings

this was indeed amazing my inner child is defiantly crying tears of joy as he and I have listened to this conversation thank you and continue to love

Rodney spoke on not trusting himself with love…I could/can relate to that… I started reading a book called “Trust” by Iyanla Vanzant. I recommend that book to anyone with the same struggle. It will open your eyes and heart.💙

It's 12:11 AM and am watching and listening 🎧 to each of these men speak out their inner thoughts and heart ❤️❤️💕🌹🌹🌹 insecurities are real in relationships so waiting on the Lord Almighty is wisdom

I needed more, I love hearing black men have open conversation COMFORTABLY!

Mind blowing conversation. Y’all should do more of these. Respectful. Compassionate. Authentic. “Nothing does what love does.” “What you lack….give.” “[Submitting to love is scary]” [The right person will help you build your life]

Thank you our Black men for having these conversations! It helps us women understand you guys!

Wow! Loved this! Really appreciated Rodney’s authenticity…This is inspiring!

Great conversation.....the open transparency & vulnerability from a man's perspective is much needed & greatly appreciated.

Love to see black men talk so positive black Love is Everything I'm so happy I found this channel to subscribe

I love how y’all help space for each others differences. Thank you for sharing!

“You don’t get ready, you just get in it” 🔥🔥

I’m still pursuing her…20yrs later Ik that’s right

The very single gentleman is not wrong. . . I am 36 and don't have children... I am all for building, but at this point, there is a certain expectation that you have certain things figured out.

So good. Deserves an OWN show

My dude keep this series going!!! These convos get me through life frfr 💯. Much needed in our culture

"She's 27 years old but she's African" 😂😅- as a 27 year old African lady, this is relatable and hilarious

What a great vulnerable conversation with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. I wish there was a pt. 2.

I absolutely love this conversation about your experiences. Trauma is real in both men and women. And until you deal with the triggers, it can hinder any relationship if not dealt with correctly. Thank you so much for your transparency. I am sharing this with my girl friends who need to hear the male perspective.

I love this!!! I love when I see men being open, encouraging & helping one another from various ages and places in life. Help each heal and live amazing lives- yes kings

Thank you very much to everyone at the table for your contributions to this piece. Beautiful and insightful conversation.

These conversations are powerful!!!

This was an amazing conversation amongst 5 grown a** men. I LOVE to see it. Pure love and light ✨

I love how these men are opening up and sharing their experiences, this is beautiful!!!

Valuable, inspiring, and healing conversation. The vulnerability, accountability, support, and encouragement you men showed is amazing. Thank you🙏🏾

This was such an amazing and mature conversation on love! And I really appreciate the thought provoking perspective of these young black men. I need more of this, especially in a world full of gender wars. I appreciate all of the men honesty, openness, and awareness, no matter where your standpoints differ. Thanks for sharing and please keep this content going. God bless y’all.

What a beautiful conversation! Loved the diversity, honesty & vulnerability. Keep it up ❤️

Wow, I love the transparency shared. To hear and also see how our brothers talked about and are mirroring love is encouraging to watch. Keep advocating for love.

This was great! 👏🏾 Thanks guys!!! I like hearing men open. Because as much as women think we KNOW men, we don’t! And as much as men think that KNOW us women, you don’t! So, these talks are indeed helpful and necessary to gain better insight and understanding. ♥️

I really get tired of people attaching maturity to age, like are y’all really still doing that? Have y’all not seen that age doesn’t equate to maturity by now ? There are ppl who are older & still move as if they are in middle school | high school. Stop making it seem like younger women can’t possibly have the mindset of wanting to settle down, if anything you men are the one’s who love to still act “ Young” the older you get, still be trying to hang with the younger population & go out with them. Just let people be who they are without attaching age to everything. There are women who are married at a young age & is doing well. Just as much as men who are married & is doing well. It has nothing to do with age, it’s about your mindset & how you carry yourself. Wisdom doesn’t come with just age, wisdom also comes with experiences & things you just naturally understand because you already have been born with the gift of gab. Y’all men be the most immature mfs out here & wanna bring age into it when it’s a older dude dating a younger woman. Keep dating your older women & let that man date his. Sometimes you don’t even purposely date a certain age, you can meet a person and they just so different then when you find out their age it’s just that. It’s nothing more to that. You shouldn’t allow yourself to stop from connecting because of someone being younger than you.

To the melinated GODS that gave their time and worth to this round table discussion, thank you. I agree, I wish that it could have gone longer, but I am grateful for the openness of you all and the gems that you shared. I believe that all of you are LOVE and it shines brightly within each of you. You all are great gifts of generosity because you didn't have to do this. Again, thank you and I hope there are sequels to this discussion. Namaste

Nice episode. It's important to have guests who actually know what they are talking about where Black men and love are concerned. Particularly glad that Rodney eventually admits how jaded he is compared to the panel. What Rodney doesn't realise is that he is in love with a 'television woman' which is not real Women and that's the struggle right there.

It's so refreshing to see black men be honest and talk about love.

This was a beautifully insightful discussion! Thanks for being so candid guys. I gained so much clarity having this male perspective on love and relationships 🙏🏾💗

Love Love these authentically real conversations. Thank you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wow, I enjoyed every minute of this. I didn't want it to end.

Thank you for this! This perspective is much needed and appreciated

This was really good and also Rodney looks like Romeo Miller is it me?

Honestly, this was EPIC! The level of maturity and to hear you all support one another. This was amazing! I pray that more men watch this and choose to have these conversations of their own.

Such an amazing conversation, I really hope more brothers across the world start having these type of conversations with one another. I am one that believes that if men are healthy mentally, spiritually and emotionally, the world would heal so much faster and be better off in the long -run. Great job👏👏

Thank you Kings. The transparency is very much appreciated 🙏🏾

This was the best table conversation from the men!!!!

THISSSSS real tears when y’all was taking. Thanks for the vulnerability ❤

Such honesty and sincerity from these strong Black men. Please have a part 2. This conversation is so insightful for Black women. The raw emotion and truthfulness is refreshing to see.

Talk about a cliff hanger lol that was an abrupt closing to such an empowering conversation. I hope to hear more from this group. It’s truly impactful to hear men speak from their hearts instead of ego or what they think is “okay” to say.

loved it! Black men and their perspective on love. It goes without saying I would love to see more. Thanks, for not putting women down, but still being authentic/vulnerable.

LOVE HEARING BLACK MEN SPEAK FROM THEIR HEART AND THEIR TRUTH

Refreshing to see a mature panel of men who were comfortable in expressing how they felt without posturing. Would definitely like to see a part 2.

This was absolutely beautiful and thank you all for your bravery!

Gentlemen, thank you so much for sharing such a rich and insightful conversation and greetings from London/UK!

It was nice being “a fly on the wall” so to speak. Had me emotional hearing the different love experiences. Amazing!

I love the conversation and I just had to jump in and comment on one thing: it doesn't matter the age, if the woman is the one for you, she will build with you. The idea that because she is older, she expects that you must have the house, the car the everything already in place isn't the reality for most women.
