I saw this video months ago on a blog or twitter (not sure where) and never saved the link. For months I looked for the link again and kept facing roadblocks eventually making me give up.
Now that the link is in my possession, I will never lose it again. This video is one of my favorites of all time. It represents so much: humanity, honesty, self-worth, respect for one-self, purity, accountability...the words are endless.
If you haven't heard of BlakRoc yet, you must on some Jaycee Lee Dugard type situation in which case I will not judge you. Blakroc is a rap/rock collaboration album between a rock band called "The Black Keys" and several hip hop and R&B artists: Mos Def, Jim Jones, Nicole Wray, amongst other notable hip hop stars.
The album was released November 2009. Below is my favorite song off the whole album. Song is on repeat!
I stumbled upon this song while hearing another song by this group called "Gravity." I couldn't find a video link for that song but wanted to remember this group because I've never heard of them before. You can hear the song "Gravity" on Blip.fm
