  1. me!

    I heard he doesn’t write any of his songs. He has ghostwriters just like Bow Wow did when he first came out. I see the hustle but I can’t respect that. People need to know how to work hard and get results, not use your daddy and his connects to get some.

    He’ll do well because of his father, not talent.

  2. NYC

    Sounds like a bootleg Lupe Fiasco song.

  3. val

    LMAOOOO…O0O0O0O0 PLZ….Diggy go somewhere!

  4. horrible

    first the older brother wanted dto rap then angela had a music video now the little brothers a rapper > No one will take him serious

    it do sound like a bootleg q tip back in the day

  5. kerri

    That was really great, I can’t wait to see you perform , god bless you.

  6. Sarah Vaughan

    i was thinking chi ali, lol… he’s a little cutie so he may do well. i couldn’t really understand everything he was saying tho’.

  8. GoodMorning Haters

    The thing is wether ya’ll hate or love him, he doing his thing. Wether or not he’s writing his own lyrics he’s doing what he loves, wether he wins at it or loses, at least he did something he loves. He’s 15 and he’s got plenty of life to live, he’ll find something else to do, while ya’ll hate and do what you hate to do for a living. Stop hating people it’s not healthy. It’s one thing if you dont care for it that’s cool that’s your opinion, but it’s another to get extra and take digs at the kid.

  9. Ayanna - The Orginal One

    tired of these spoiled ass rich kids getting a pass …

    he is better than whack ass Diddy’s son thou.

  10. Ayanna - The Orginal One

    @ #9….STFU

    he put himself out there for use to judge him…..@ 15 he knows how the game is..it comes with haters. So let people voice their opinion & let him do his thing.

  11. RORO

    aww look at diggy live life to the fullest. Love the song little dude.

  12. oMG

    @9

    LMAO Digs shut ya mouf little boy. Nobody gone buy that ish you got anyway. Be happy that CL is promoting you instead of coming on here trying to address haters. Take it as constructive criticism and go get you a pen and some paper. But let me say something nice before I leave…at least your voice is deeper than Justin Beiber’s. Too bad you won’t have the same success. I know I know, i gave you a compliment than tooketh away. lol that’s how it works when you put yourself out there. Get used to it.

  13. Bianca

    much better than his older bro :)

  14. Leo

    Ugly azz, no singing Justin Beiber gets a pass but we’re going to trash our own?

    If Justin Beiber can do it, so can Diggy.

  15. oMG

    @15

    Race aint got nothing to do with it. Beiber can sing, play the guitar, and play the drums. This is about TALENT not race. Since when do we give a non talented person a pass because they black? For the most part we call it like we see it. If they can’t sing we call them out for it. If they can’t dance we call them out for it. If they can’t act we call them out for it. I see Diggy’s ppl is here on they job today.

  16. LULU

    It sounds pretty good. I hope he does well.

  17. Holleywood

    Thanks J Dakar :)

  18. Peace

    @OMG , @ AYANNA – THE ORGINAL ONE

    WOw you just don’t know smh. Respect your right to have an opinion but wow. If a haters job is to point out flaws, considering that i’m sure he’s aware of what he needs to works on, you are not needed. Diggy great delivery. Music needs to move forward fresh faces, fresh talent. I’m praying that you grow into the Rapper lyricist that you need to be in order to do your thing. Big up to you :)

  19. stop hatin

    All yall wack a$$ lame losers need to grow up and stop tryna judge a kid
    He’s doing his thing yall just hatin cuz yall aint doin shyt
    I bet if he wasnt Rev Run’s son yall would have liked his music and yall wouldnt b goin as hard.

  20. Nyla

    The kid IS TALENTED!!! He’s better than a lot of the BS on the radio now. Hopefully he’ll take the right path and continue to be positive. He has legends around him that can help groom and shape him into becoming a legend himself. He comes from a musical background and because of that he automatically not supposed to be involved in music? Let him grow and be what he desires to be, rapper or not. Talent is so diverse that no one person’s talent is better than someone else’s because they don’t do the same thing. Singing and guitar isn’t for him just as rapping isn’t for Justin Bieber. SMH!!

  21. 2bad

    Wow lol saw this on another site & people loved the kid. I come here & people are tearing the kid to shreds lmao! I guess it just seems natural to be negative here on CL. Idk maybe if you guys use some brighter colors it would elevate people’s moods lol.

  22. sugarmama

    u ppl hate too much, u have so much negativity you need Jesus. well done diggy, his just a 15 year old, lets see if any of ur brothers can do any better. He was previleged to be born in a well known family, why not make use of it.

  23. datchick

    @Ayanna and OMG

    JoJo is that you??

  24. MSPRETTY

    I’m happy for Diggy,He’s really talented.LOL I’m actually shocked to see this video.Diggy was always the kid with swag.And I knew he was gonna be someone when I seen his fashion sense on Run’s House.

  25. MSPRETTY

    I’m happy for Diggy,He’s really talented.LOL I’m actually shocked to see this video.Diggy was always the kid with swag.And I knew he was gonna be someone when I seen his fashion sense on Run’s House and how serious he was about music.

  26. TeeSoFlyy

    Flow is nice… he really is growing into a handsome young man! I like anything that doesnt talk about influencing drug selling music!! On another note, while I do agree that everyone has their own opinions, some of ya’ll confuse that with HATE! Ya’ll need to stop that, cuz it ain’t a good look AT ALL!!

  27. breanna~ wierd `n` lovin` it~

    if i just heard the sng and not know the artist i would have thought this was lil twist

    how boys age 15-18 sound like 11 yr olds i dont get it

  28. bvarney

    terrible!!!! diggy just be with your family.

  29. marian

    he gone bcum da nxt jay-z

  30. The Bus Bandit

    I was surprised that I acutally liked it. I hope he continues to develop and stay away from the “bling bling” mentality of hip hop. I feel sorry for Jo Jo because Diggy is succeeding where he may have failed. I’m shocked that people are going in on a 15 year old kid exploring his talent. If half of yal hating on him would have explorered your talent, maybe you’d be a topic on C&L instead of a Commenter.

  31. B!

    I loved it!!!! Loved the beat (band sound), he looked really cute!!! Way to go young man!!!

  32. PoBoi

    How can you wait for something that you didn’t know was coming?

    I think I’m gonna drop a mixcd or mixmp3 (i mean, is it really a tape?) in July.

  33. lalala

    I LOVE IT!!!! No cursing, gimmicks, booty-shaking, and i can understand the words! Great job Diggy! Finally a child making music kids can actually listen to! I love the horns and the college band in the background.

    Best of luck to ya kiddo

  34. lalala

    lol @ 31….agreed.

    #co-sign#

  35. BEN

    It’s not bad, however he should lose the Drake swag though.

  36. foxxs4

    woooooo!!!I came acorss a great hot cougar dating site.

    If you put “A GE” and “MIN GLE” together, then you will get the url.

    It’s a nice and free place for Younger- Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to- interact with each other. Maybe you wanna check out or- tell your friends

  37. kdubb

    OMG, I can not believe how u m.f.”s hate so much on this website, Im beginning to think its all hatting ass, low self esteem, ignorant ass, dumb ass stuuupid sorry broke ass black folk that surf this site jus to be assholes hatting on people. #1 site for black on black hatters! What the fuck are yall hatting on this young black male who is doing something positive, alot more then what the youngins in yall stupid m.f.’s families are doing and yall want to hate on him! Too all the hatters who think the game is about hatting on your own kind in life needs a reality check, get a life and something going on with yourself so you will be able to be happy for a brother or sister and learn that it is ok to compliment a person instead of always having something negative to say! Yall hatters need Jesus in yall life! May God help all you ignorant hatters who had something negative to say about shorty. He has the whole package so jus admit it, he has the looks, the style, and he can rap so look into the mirror and let your hatting ass no, SHAME ON U!! I’m out I can not stand wasting time with stupid m.f.’s!!!!

  38. mrs. sk8board p (ak & bk stan)

    go head diggy.. that was good. 15 and he has great potential, not to mention all the girlies are gonna love him

  39. MINDFUL

    Rich nor not the kid has talent, he sounds better then half of these LAME rappers some of you probably listen to.

  40. miss la

    I really liked the song a new sound tired of the same ish on the radio.

  41. jscene

    Loved it! The whole thing was tight, the lyrics, the sound, the swagger, the movements, i say get it DIGGY! You got this……shake the haters off, and press fast forward, and just let it play…..

    Loved it, loved it, loved it….that’s the best forecast from a new rap artists i’ve heard in a long time….i can see him doing big things..

  42. love good music

    in the beginning did he say he got the whores????
    i hope not

    diggy got a lil swag on em though,lol. cute video. Hes a handsome lil boy and the girls will love him whether or not he has a ghost writer. and speaking of. . .the world has gotten away from being real. at least in our society, or should i say ESPECIALLY in our society? so it would stand to reason that would spill over into the music. So why is everyone complaining that it isnt real?!?!?
    If the people arent real, the music wont be. Its the doing of the people who place others on a pedestal. get over it

  43. truthfullyspeaking

    I really wish that immature a** lickers would stop getting so damn sensitive. Y’all are the ones who sound like you don’t have anything better else to do! CL always has a graduation post on here that shows CL readers who are graduating college or high school so obviously people on here who comment are doing something with their life even of they do write negative comments. Diggy’s flow is on point and it’s a cool song, but was I the only one who noticed that this muthafo said the N word and it was bleeped out? Maybe it didn’t show it in this video but when I heard a snippet of the song on the radio from this video, I heard them bleep out the N word. How dare him? And he’s doing something positive with his life y’all say? Instead of him trying to get into a shady and cliché business, he needs to focus on going to college and getting a real career. Everyone knows or should know that education is the key to success.

  44. Breezy Baby

    I’ve been hearing that Diggy is getting buzz surrounding his music and this is my first time hearing his stuff. I love it! I’m shocked that he can actually flow. He has a little swagger about him. Go ahead young tike, do your thang!

  45. MDP

    Listen!! If you have any doubt this kid isn’t talented just search him on youtube some of his songs on there are fire! Hope he gets his chance to shine best of luck!

  46. Ojeezy

    Yo i think diggy is really good. I have been listen to some of his stuff on line for the last couple of months and i think it is hot. Regardless if he writes his stuff or not he has good deliver

  47. cutie

    i always thought he was a cutie
    jojo n da other boy looks hideous tho

  48. Allen_J

    I like it it’s fresh dope beat cool lyrics

  49. JUDAH

    “Diggy” is a Boule baby. The intent is to make the Simmons children a caucasian version of the Kardashians or the Hiltons. That is why they all have a hustle (or are being hustled). Talent is not necessary when your life is more choreographed than your videos.

  50. Nelly

    awww… go Diggy!!!!

  51. TeeTop

    The instrumental is b-a-n-a-n-a-s!! lol

  52. MsSunnySoufBunny

    Boy, boy, boy,

    Ppl sure do think hard and deep @ every action people behind the camera or that live for entertaiment make…. but it does come w/ the craft.

    Therefore,

    I though the video was fun and Diggy is so cute w/ his lil raspy voice havin’ self.. He’s still so young, just getting started, and already rich in so many ways he can afford to have fun and make rap videos and explore whatever he thinks he wants to bring to the world…

    I’m pretty sure though once he has to fight off enough demons (ppl that just hate for the hell of it) He will more than likely get involved into the business side and not care about entertaining in front of the camera.

    **shrugs**

    Shyt: What are people really mad @?

  53. Luely

    LOL @ hatters hatting. Really #38?

  54. Suga Mama

    I think he is fly. I mean damn the boy isn’t even 16 and half of you all are hating on him… I think he is a cute young guy with a lot of swag and he seems to be enjoying himself in a positive light. What right do we have to throw negativity his way. I support keep doin your thing… It’s 2010 who hasn’t has a ghost writer , Lil wayne did in the beginning.

  55. me

    He’s a cute kid and I always thought he had more swag than the older brother. But he needs to find his own style. Looks like he’s trying to be Jay-Z in this video and what really sucks is he sounds like Bow Wow.

  56. Young Hollywood

    I alwayz thought this kid was a star….he was always my favorite :)
    I’m sure lil girls everywhere will be screaming at some show for him very soon

  57. Shekeeps

    I’m tripping off his voice!! Diggy has grown up!!

  58. theshoppingdiva

    I was surprised at how good he is, I checked out some of his stuff on youtube. He has a lot of potential to be huge in this business if continues to hone his craft.

  59. Approved

    I think it’s adorable! His whole little style is so cute! Reminds me of Lupe Fiasco fine ass! Mhmm, but back to Diggy. I think it’s cute the dancing, and all of that. Continue to live your dreams Diggy, I like the beat, It’s hot! The lyrics also!
