We are entering an amazing time in music where more artists are rising to speak up about issues within their own communities and throughout the world. With music like Lemonade, YG and NIpsey’s “Fuck Donald Trump” and even many of your underground hip-hop – artists are beginning to put messages back into music. It’s amazing to see the route that hip-hop can take. Artists are no longer afraid of not fitting in; they’re diving into their own oceans fishing for a new message, a new vision, and a new way to look at art and creativity.
Many would agree that Charleston S.C.’s underground hip-hop culture is full of artists daring to be different. If you’re a fan of hip-hop looking for a message in the music, check out rapper, Brown featuring Donn Jones, K, and Queen Christine in this new visual release titled, “Facts.”
With lines like “put your hands up, tell ‘em don’t shoot” and “we been going down this road too long now it’s time for change…but n*** out here killing everyday cause they stuck in the same mind frame.” Brown is showing artists that there’s more to talk about than just the trap…check out the complete video below.
