Don't Stay in School . Boyinaband . wow

The first time I heard this song...


(it's "Don't Stay in School")
...I didn't really mind about the lyrics. What I did mind is the awesome tune and rap skills of Boyinaband (or Dave, I'm not sure).

Dave is a really diverse fellow. Things that comes out of his mouth are intriguingly intelligent. Something that sometimes makes my head hurt, but love to hear albeit the struggle of my head to follow. No questions, I am just literally slow at things.

Truth be told I wouldn't be going through his channel without that Reaction video from the Fine Brothers YT channel about "Adults reacting to Don't Stay in School". Which was a relevant thing since the song was intended to be noticed.

Currently his most controversial songs, it garnered such a strong reaction from adults because of the title. If you truly listened to the song, it never said that you should literally leave the school. However, it really rose up some weird shallow like reaction (to me) towards the "misleading" title. Many of the videos with parents involved, luckily has strong conviction towards the concept of a diploma, reacted violently towards the title. But once they hear the song, they praise it. They nod in approval and tell the truth of it.

(Great my intended "not to discuss anything about the song but more about Dave" went out the drain)

Still the world is unfair. There are still reactions stating that aim of the song, which is to remind the school that they should give the children better life learning education than just academic, was not really necessary. Of course it will not be targeted to everyone but only to those countries that thinks exam scores are better than life points, in an RPG game that is one important matter specially if you're in a battle with a stronger enemy.

This was an amazing feat in itself, to let people be aware of such truths. As I recall, there are a lot of shows that depicts past stories that when people went to school they pursued academic courses because they wanted to or are intrigued. I'm guessing that through the course of history basic academic courses were made available or a staple to everyone due to the unfair division of intellectual levels of each person back in the days, I do not know when. However, it began to grow lazy, that instead of people picking the academics because they see it as a necessity rather they were force fed so that the government can hit two apples with one arrow, diminishing the years that will lapse and the time or money they could save.

Our economy, government, and life IS growing lazier by the day through their impatience.

This is a horrible reality for me, who is and will always be a lazy person that has a mind set of a person who wants to achieve and is rather impatient.

Never mind going back to the past and discovering "this and thats" source. Going back to Dave's awesome singing skills, he seems to has become aware of his greater purpose by making songs that hits the spot in higher places than usual. Like his next song Spectrum, although LGBT issues towards LGBT relationships has been quite the number one easily opened discussion even to my friends. The reality of their pain is very true and shouldn't be dismissed.


(Again, why is the thumbnail his face?)
This song is as spectacular as "Don't Stay in School", even featuring Cry and Minx, fellow youtubers.
