    Like the song.  Like the video.  Glad that they were able to do a real cut of the song and get it out there.  Such a positive message.

    love it..  yeah Chris.    the coolest about this for me is he wrote this song, he made the music for this song.. and now look at him.  so glad for him.   and we all get to see his rise to fame..  maybe X Factor was not that great this first year here, But the moment Chris came on stage,  they knew they had a star and that makes a show like that all worth it..

    What’s amazing is that this song that we have heard a few versions of, 10 million + views on Youtube, is still climbing up iTunes! Loved the video btw.

    idk, it’s hard to not listen or watch Young Homie at not smile. They did a good job with it imo

    it’s hard to not listen or watch Young Homie at not smile.

    Exactly, the video seems like little money was spent on it but the “unforced” massage, the smiles, the brightness and general vibe, all great, and looks  like 1M $ one only from those things; hope good things for him.  And that picture is like Chris with Mini-Chris in!

    Yeah! you’re right. I’m shocked at the way it’s kept it’s position for all this while. After one week, it’s still up there with the biggies and that’s a good sign for the song. I expect it to move up when the video premieres on VH1 hopefully this weekend.

    Jim Sheaerer had good things to say about the song when he intro’d him on BIG BUZZ MORNING yesterday.So far, reviews about the video are really good.

    i like chris- the song was original – i wish him the best but i think they’ve squeezed every last drop out of this song – in my mind, he’s becoming a one-hit wonder…id like to hear some new music…we had the x factor version performed 3x and released on iTunes; we had a studio version released; now weeks later a video too…Im trippin on this song

    I love Chris’s video. They did a great job with it.  I really am hoping he does well.

    A one-hit wonder is still better than a no-hit wonder, I hope this song does amazing, no matter what does or doesn’t come afterward

    I wasn’t a fan but good for him. This sounds great recorded. His video is very similar to homemade street videos that are all over you tube. That’s cool becuase he is keeping it in a light that represents who he is. You have to cheer for someone who is turning their life around.

    Love it! And I heard this song on the radio this past weekend. So cool. I’m really happy for Chris.:) And I’m not sure why everyone is making it a big deal that this has been Chris’s money song. It’s great, catchy, authentic and written and composed by him. Any new artist would be thrilled to have a song like this that we might be jamming to all Summer.

    How can you call him a one hit wonder? He just got signed and this is his first single.

    Good song for this guy. Good message. Prayers that he continues to turn his life around and makes the most of the gift he has been given.

    “he’s becoming a one-hit wonder…”

    Is that even possible? A one-hit wonder isn’t something you become. Lol. We really have to look back on his body of work once it’s all said and done. Just because Epic is squeezing as much as they can from the song, doesn’t mean he’s not capable of more…most good singer/song-writers are.

    I’m not really a Chris fan, but there is just something about him that makes me root for him and wish him success.

    And the song and video fit him like a glove, actually not my prefered style of music either, but in the same time so catchy and up-beat and with a feel-good vibe that just makes me hum and clap along. I might get it from amazon.de when it’s released here on the 23rd. :)

    Actually Chris already had an album which is written by himself. That album is called “Soul’d out”. You can easily find all songs from that album at youtube.
