Nas & Usher's 'Chains' Video Reacts To Police Brutality

Usher and Nas address racial bad form and police mercilessness in the melody's visuals, something of an intelligent involvement with a squeezing, overlying message: "Don't Look Away." Portraits of dark lives lost to police ruthlessness stream over the screen, as do their names, ages, and stories. The penetrating pictures of the men and ladies, young men and young ladies, From Travyon Martin to Sean Bell, serve to present what Nas totals up in one concise bar: "We have an issue that should be comprehended."

No words could do the video equity, and the same can be said for the tragedies recounted in its story. Yet, "Chains" holds an intense reverberation that appropriately respects the late and argues for mindfulness, consideration and association from all - not only the families, not simply ethnic minorities. "Confronting the truths is the initial move toward change," the finishing up content says. Furthermore, on that note, Usher - alongside Nas and Bourelly - leave people in general with the way that turning away is impossible.
