I understand the message in this video. Basically fame and money can change you. And sometimes when you finally reach the top, its not sometimes what we quite imagine. And we sometimes battle with ourselves still trying to figure out who we are, and what we expect ourselves to be. He's saying we take certain things forgranted and are so quick to forget our purpose and why and how we got here. Or how we came so far the lengths the support from family, friends what matters the most to us. Money can buy you friends and the things you want and need but you cannot buy someone's love. So he wants people to understand what fame can do to people but don't let that change you. Yes its so hard to shy away from the real goal and dreams to be blinded by the riches. Just remember who you are and the one's who love the real you and who you should be yourself.

D-Pryde, we miss you.

Its sad cause its reality for him. This song still gives me the goosebumps as his mom passed away and he didn't blow up as he wanted to. RIP

Miss the old songs tbh.

Wished his vevo visuals would've hit milli views

I remember when he was still a kid posting random videos on youtube ... God bless you man

First time I've heard this kid and I think this one's sick. Glad to see him being lyrically responsible and not talking about pistol grip pumps and selling white squares

this is the best comment I'v seen. Helping people understand the meaning behind an obvious masterpiece of music

I love this song and I love Pryde but listening to his old stuff always makes my chest hurt as seeing him struggle now... but he is doing better #RUSSELL2017 please god let him pop...

Goes hard brother! Proud!

So proud of this dude...if you only know where he comes from to get here.

Always rubbing hands together, because rappers always need more Purell.

Anyone listening in 2024? I still love this shit

damn used to listen to d pryde wen i was in high school...honestly listening to his lyrics i feel super bad 4 him.

Prizzy fans from the beginning are still losing it over this. So proud...

When I first started listening to D-Pryde, I'd always see someone in the comments talking about how proud they were of him for getting so far, found it on every video. A year later, and i learn about all the things he's went thru, and heard his music progress i finally understand. It's like when he raps his song take you onto a journey into his life, you see him struggle, grow, and know what's important to him. Now it's my turn to say how proud I am of how far his gotten. Keep it up man

One of the youngest and realest street kids to do it! Real pain real talk real life #fadedoffthatthangbro

Damn this shit is fucking tight . Can't stop listening it everyday .

D-Pryde started from the bottom now he's here, this guy is dope

D pryde finally getting places, mad props

One of the deepest songs I've ever heard

Dudes mad talented, just isn't getting the consistent exposure to make himself big time.

So glad ive gotten to see dpryde up and coming.

D-Pryde has made it so far! congratz fam.

Seriously miss your old songs where your raps truly had more sense and content. Where it wasn't all mulah, bitches, parties and etc.

f all the haters saying d-pryde sucks he dont

Killed it in Canada, Now he is bringing it global!

"Money get you what where why who and when"

Realest shit I've ever heard

D Pryde Owned That!!

Been a fan since before his mars days. Congrats prizzy!

He didn't make it cuz he didn't sell his soul

why do ppl hate and bash so much on youtube? if u dont like it dont watch or listen. not saying this guys great or anything like that but i enjoyed it, entertained. but either way go to sleep u little kids.

I've been watching his videos for a while. This kid is the real deal. I think he does some awsome stuff

Good beat and good lyrics, exactly what I look for in a song. You'll get through the tough times Pryde.

Saving this onto my computer as a mp4 and onto my cloud just in case.

Dang people complaining much? Y'all don't like the kid, don't listen... or rap for yourself to listen. lol. problems answered.

Prizzyy be killin emm

Woah i used to watch his videos during junior high and that was about 7 yrs ago...It's awesome that he kept creating.

Hahahah damn! Wth happen here!! Drew deezy or the 454ent ain't even on vevo like This dang!!! D-pryde I knew it bro it had to catch up ur Voice

at least his song faded doesnt mean "getting faded" like other rappers

20-09 I WAS IN MY BEDROOM MAKIING DOPE RHYMES YOU STILL R BUT U MAKING THEM WITH MMG (Mars Music Group) PRIZZY!!!

Nice to see D-Pryde progressing further :D!

First of all, D Pryde is signed by a major label, Def Jam. If no one knows him, tell me why he's KZfaq famous, especially at his age (from 16-19) that's a 3 year span from little EPs to More popular hits with half a million views. Mc is just a wannabe fly union member lol

Respect him for repping the fellow filipinos, but dude has to change his look. I can't take him seriously with those glasses and that haircut

this is the best on his album most realest music artist his music is way better than these other rappers

Man its been a while since I've listened to D Pryde, It's great to see how much he's progressed since the last time I've seen one of his songs! You've made it so far man keep it up!

your youtube rap career is fading. at least you acknowledge it

*Homie, I hope you reflect back on your rap career in hindsight and learn why you stayed getting only a few thousand views & never got to blow up: You never grew, progressed, or got better. Your music stylistically stayed in '09 while you seemed to care more about your hair, getting tats while boasting about how "dope" you are and how you've "made it", but that can't be any further from the truth. Your flow and pen game never stepped up while musically your peers and adversaries evolved passed you. Not to mention you already had the challenge of lacking charisma and having a rather unappealing nasally rap voice. Watching your interview with Tim was a bit on the depressing side, as it was obvious your thoughts and wisdom has derived from a comeup of "could've been" and wasted potential. Maybe your biggest claim to fame can be opening act for J Cole. Now assuming you have come to terms with your life and career for what it is, perhaps it is now time to re-invest your time and energy on more fruitful projects and accept your fate, but not one as an accomplished rapper that you had initially hoped. I wish you nothing but the best D-Pryde.*

I wish over at Minnesota they could have his music on the radio ..

I feels good (for me) to see where you came from and where you at now. Always good to see someone successful, or at least better than where they began. Progress is progress. Keep it up D.

his voice is too high and weird :/

this need do have a million views !! go d-pryde , ur tha best #Prizzy !!

Really good!!! Really nice to see D-pryde's songs are getting better and better! GOOD JOB MAN

YOU MADE IT!!!!!! THUMBS UP!!!!! D-Pryde. Welcome to the Big Leagues!! Keep Spittin'!!

Still remember his old vids and now he's on Vevo! Good job mate

D pryde has been working his ass off to make it this far, RESPECT been here since the beginning

This shows that you can do literally anything in life if you just put your mind to it. dopee prizzy!

I love dpryde's style. I been watching him for so many years now and saw him progress and make changes here and there. the video was super touching to watch, I wish the best of luck for him in everything he pursues!

D-pryde back on the map

I performed with D-Pryde in Pittsburgh this week. Gotta say, if you get to meet him, you'll gain so much respect for the kid. Great artist and even better person!

I really love his voice when he raps, makes me want to keep on listening. Gotta have a unique voice when you're rapping, it makes a difference.

D-Pryde Rising up!!!

d pryde fan forever

Quite frankly, I appreciate the honesty in this song. I don't give a shit who you are, most of us make that bold statement like money wouldn't change them if they made it. How do you know until you've actually the grasped the lifestyle of a millionaire spoiled in financial freedom. We are all prone to sin, gain the world and it'll be hard to let it all go.

first real rap song in a long time

All the things you bought DON"T exist after life. True shit. Why grind so hard for all that money when knowing you can't bring them with you after life.

This has been on replay all day :D

I see you D-Pryde! I remember when you first started out on KZfaq back in like 2007. Started from the bottom, now you here!

im so proud of him! I remember watching him do home videos on youtube years ago

I've been following this kid since BYYAHHH. And you made it!! So proud of you man

D Pryde u still got it no matter what people say, keep going!

"You pick up some fans and a handful of haters along the way" I, am your absolute #1 fan and no matter what any "hater" says, you deserve all the success and blessings that come to you. I'm so proud of how far you've come. You're ganna be HUGE one day. Just remember," haters don't necessarily hate you, they just hate themselves cause you're a reflection of what they want to be". Keep doing your thing D-Pryde and never forget your fans who've been supporting you from the beginning. You're amazing

This Guy Has To Make It Big !

Followed you for a while man great stuff

Untill they turn 90. They wake up and their face just DROPS.

Le refrain passe vraiment trop bien ! D-Pryde monte en puissance !

Got this on replay!!

Great visual representation of the song's meaning. D-pryde goes hard! Not to mention he cleans up damn well. Nicely done!!

You know you have made it when you have your Own VEVO. :)

D Pryde is da BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've never heard or seen this guy but I love the way he carries himself. I don't see how anyone could call this fake. He looks like a normal mid 20s male.

Congrats on all of your success. Heard you tore it up at Lollapalooza, man. And thanks for dropping some new music; your fans were D-prived. -fan since Mars.
