"Healing's not a feeling, it's a process. Progress not an object, it's a concept. Humanity's a conscience, not a contest." Chills.

In a world full of lies, speaking TRUTH is truly an act of revolution! ✊

I wish that a song like this could go viral, but most of America isn't ready for the truth still. Respect.

I'm 40, hip-hop head all my life. This one is special, this kid is different. Support this MC

Marlon Craft should be protected at all costs.

These songs always hit different

I recently retired from and education and career in social sciences, social service, and work among marginalized rural minorities, migrants, refugees, in the US and underdeveloped countries, and am humbled by your comprehensive clarity and force. I just saw you on Ari Melber, and hope many who don't regularly follow this genre will listen to you and stand up. Stay strong!

This is one of those tracks they should still be playing 50 years from now in all types of lists. Incredible craftmanship bleeding through the bars, cadence and flow. You're a huge inspiration man.

Damnmmmn Marlon I am blown away…. Powerful……I am simply blown away! Magnificent work here.

Been waiting on this! That ending line tho "When is YOU gon set YOU free?" shit's POWERFUL son! Still my favorite rapper alive #Craft4Prez

Marlon has cemented himself as a pillar in hip hop and rap. He still has so much more left show, but God everytime he steps out he shows why his passion and talent is needed. I'm just happy to witness it.

Man enough to admit this shit just brought me to tears.

As another "old" lady here, I'm truly impressed with this artist. The lyrics had me pausing the song to screenshot or write down or just THINK about them an extra second before moving on. Marlon Craft is speaking truth to power exactly the way progressive leaders MUST in order for We the People to actually hear them above the monotonous drone of our lives, punctuated regularly by the hysterical rantings of TV "personalities". Never forget that ALL change is uncomfortable, whether good or bad. We must accept that our lives need to change in order for our SPECIES to continue thriving, and the longer we wait, the more drastic the changes will have to be.

"What if instead of pretending we harness that fight and that feul to be all that we pretend to be" Lots to unpack in this one!

"I'd rather smile in the fire than languish in levity." Fuckin' LOVE that line, it put a smile on my face without hesitation. Every line is great. Here because of Ari yet again, thanks for going on there to contribute, because most of that mainstream crew are exactly the types of people this song is about.

I saw this kid on The Beat with Ari Melber! I was so impressed with his talent. Even though I'm old I will be on the lookout for his music. Linda

This is beyond words. truly one of the greatest motivational speeches of our time. The world is in desperate need of this right now. Thank you Marlon. 💙🙏🌠🎙💙

I thought I knew what would be coming. But nobody could anticipate how fire this would be. Marlon Crafts greatness doesn't lie in his capabilities, but in his constant improvement. As he said: Progress isn't a product but a process.

Welcome to the repercussions. You're one of the last of a dying breed and I'm grateful for every release. Never stop, man. You're the best part of all of us.

Looking in the mirror like “When you gonna set you free?” Daaaaammmmmnnnnn Marlon you can spit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

Damn. Craft NEVER disappoints.

Marlon Craft is extraordinary, I hope America has more like him. Listen to his words carefully. Very intelligent man.

"I'm lookin in the mirror like when you gon set you free?" Deepest shit spoke, like I'm in living colour. ✊❤️✊

We are witnessing one of those artists that comes along every 100 years so.

Thank you for speaking all the feelings I can’t translate to words. I feel you. Keep going, Marlon.

DUDE! Last year the Part 1 got me into your music...and how did you come so hard on part 2? This shit is most excellent, I'm going to be running it for a while to hear it all!

Holy freaking lyricism Batman. Marlon this was an incredible picture of this planet. You are SOMETHIN' Else.

Put this on the radio! Share it on every platform!!!!

Marlon, here in France Émile Zola wrote "j'accuse" 1898 and shaked a whole nation wake up and fight against antisemitism. We are not done yet but someone had to start. Your lyrics are à manifest. There is so much in them so you deserve the comparaison. We need courageous people like you , that thinks for us, reveals how things are and sings it loud. Good ideas to have the subtiles for non fluent people in English. And I like the music...

This brother here..is exceptional..the depth is worthy of meditation. I am moved and 👏 his wisdom is beyond his years.

….and once again Marlon has just dropped the mic on the world. I hope i’m not the only one that feels the inhumanity. I look outside my window and wonder is this the beginning of the apocalypse? To end by someone else’s hand. Some days I feel so helpless. I know there is beauty and goodness out there, it just takes longer to find it.

Every year, every song, this man gives his last name DEPTH. Truly one of the greatest of all time. More power to you, Craft!

marlon craft! your lyricism makes u one of the goats in my eyes, you make hip hop proud my brother!

Probably the best lyricist of this generation. What makes Marlon stand out against his peers is his subject matter. He speaks hard truths other artists wouldn't dare bring up.

As I do with all your stuff, I watch and listen at least 5 times, before I can even try to get it all, and I get blown away by how much wisdom, and education you pack in! Thanks so much for your work!

i will never understand how he gets 4k views. he is truly one of the best MCs active right now. cant name a bad song of his

Let make this song go viral on Tiktok, Legend you are spiritually rich, nature will favour all you doings 🎉❤

Keep dropping gems homie ! Craft!!! 🔥🔥🔥

The voice of the everyday 9-5 worker. Appreciate tf outta you.

I think I just held my breath for 5 minutes and 14 seconds. This shit was wild.

I’m an Aussie that loves rock and blues. MNSBC brought me here. Most evenings I research the terrible events and beliefs plaguing your country. You have a new fan. That was beautiful, ugly subject matter but so much soul. But it struck a chord. Your artistry is sublime, your lyrics and delivery masterful, the effect you delivers on someone not into the genre and not a countryman was profound. Thank you 🙏

I mean at this point the fact that this isn't at a millions views says more about the world we live in than anything else. The lyrical skills are incredible are among the best in rap, but even that pales in comparison to the content, concepts and messages this man serves up literally every time he touches a mic. If the world was able to properly appreciate and understand his message, he probably wouldn't need to spit. Craft is one of the few diamonds in rap, regardless of whether the world digs him or not.

Craft NEVER MISSES.

People gon hate him for speaking up, but all that he’s saying is true. Love it when rappers use their platform for speaking out like this!

I been telling ya'll, Marlon Craft the next G.O.A.T. ✌🖤➕ These State Of Union songs are hella deep with the message. Just raw facts.

"Living in the Shallow waters leads to Deepening Mistrust!" What a sense of depth in your words brother! What a feel to accept I have heard brother! How are you not more in affect on the world Brother! May you reach and soar like a jet on the whole Brother! You never cease to Amaze Marlon!

When something got me sayin ‘facts’ every couple bars, you just know Craft is in his element!

Marlon needs to keep dropping conscious raps. So fire 🔥🔥🔥

Finger pointing when we are our own enemies...

This that "Perpetual state of mind" kind of Rap shit right here. I'm hoping I can make it to this level one day. Thank you Marlon. -Neem The Animist

"Looking in the mirror like when you gon set you free." Brilliant.

jesus christ, love this guy. I hope he gets the attention he deserves one day!! he never misses

Marlon is so on point. Steadily. U hear his Gang song? Startling at very first... but that makes it all so meaningful. I mean... u gotta listen to Craft’s songs a few times... let the lyrics sink in.... IMO, some of the realest stuff put out, these days... damn, I understand this man.

I always have high expectations for everything he does and he just continues to exceed them with ease.

Absolute jam with a healthy serving of realness. Thanks bro, keep spittin fire

The closed captioning is everything!

Wise beyond your years. Respect! A fusion of good music and good message on this level is rare.

Top “F-ing” notch. Keep it up MC!

Courage comes in all forms. This man is brave, patriotic and I have his back.

You are a talent. I’m blown away.

🔥🎵🎶🇺🇲😇💥🙃💥😈🇺🇲🎶🎵🔥 Underrated is an understatement!

There's a reason Crafty my most listened to rapper for 2 years in a row and counting.

Gives me hope. I am older but don't see a lot of "wise" in my generation. Love to see that there is some coming up behind us. We need to listen and learn. Thanks Marlon for giving voice to it all.

Most underrated artist in the world.

Marlon Craft, thank you for continuing to share your art with all of us. I see so much of me in the failures laid out in this song, but i too see the progress I've made to be a better person.

Gettin looped!

Marlon you are an amazing artist and you're music always helps me.

I feel like rap/hip hop has reached the equivalent to the rock hair band years of the 80s. Less about the music and more about displaying yourself as a rock star/rapper. In life and music. It’s relieving to know there are still true artists like Marlon spitting truth with an insane rhyme structure.

Unbelievable 👏

I have been arguing truth, for what fills my entire life. But dude I'm getting tired. Happy to see the younger generation continue to fight. Cuz it never ends man, there will be stupid always.

I'll happily be that company, MC. 💜

So deeply thankful 🥲. I had to send this to my kids and my nephews and nieces.

This the shit people of the future will analyze in school to see how fcked up our time was. Well crafted marlon!

Speakin' with your WHOLE CHEST! 👍

Best rapper in the world . I listen to craft every single day I wake up.

the greatest hip-hop artist of this generation. better than i could have imagined.

How is this guy not bigger/more well known? 🤔 What an intelligent, talented and sophisticated artist, speaking truth to power.... what rap is supposed to be! 🔥 #anotherbanger

🔥🔥🔥🔥

"we finger pointing to avoid we are own enemies" hit so hard I had to pause and contemplate that further before finishing the song. damn.

"LOTTA BIG CHEST GUY BEHIND DESKS WHO FORGOT THE LEGWORK" dunno what this line mean to you, but to me its the higher ups who forgot where they came from and don't walk the talk... Marlon slayed with this one, yet again

Luckily got notified an hour after it came out. Instead of putting it on loop I have been fully re-watching it (unsigned in) refreshing the page each time to watch the views grow and to help with the algorithm. Keep making music man. I already know you will but support is typically appreciated even if it isn't needed so keep being you.

Emotions running DEEP in this one. Does Marlon put out cd's or is all of his music only viewable by streams?

Thanks for the music 🎶🎵!

This deserves more credit than what’s given!💯

Keep pluggin MC ! Much love for your voice and what you rep .... Truth !

THANK YOU. Im not one to ever judge people based on prejudice, but youre the embodiment of an American that lets me, as a non American, really feel that not all Americans are Idiots. The Idiots just yell the loudest. Dont misunderstand me, I never thought that way, but its a general theme outside of America...

This is one of he's best tracks for sure don't sleep on Marlon Craft people and give him he's flowers for fck sake

Bars on Bars on Bars on Bars

FACTS AND 🔥

Masterful. Like number 20. View 13.

Pay to learn to be in debt while the wealthy guys profits!!! DAMN WHAT A BAR!!!🎯🎯

"Every race judge each other but they all agree on misogyny" Speak truth to Power. One Love Craft.

I don't always agree with all the opinions expressed in his songs, but he so poetically express points in such few words. Sometimes just understanding other opinions is just as important, like a picture being worth a thousand words, so can a bar! 🔥

🔥🔥🔥

What can I say...he did it again!!!! I love you Craft!!!! Your music speaks to both my head and my heart!!!

Mic drop after that last line tho! Preach my brotha! Your energy is fire your talent is amazing keep doing the right thing keep raising the consciousness of these humans that get confused and forget why they came and what they came from.

This guy is one of the best rappers I ever listened 🎧 to n I don’t go about giving compliments easily, can’t wait 😛 for you to do an album 💿 with the greatest MC Styles P.

W

Probably the realist shit I ever heard in my life. Every single bar is standout, somber beat fits perfectly, flow is impeccable.

This guy does not have the fame that he deserves. I've always said that since I listened to Marathon on Spotify
