Too often, videos merely glorify violence, negativity, and ignorance in society and hip-hop life. We know there are thousands of individuals who will never get their shot to be heard, simply because they don't follow the negative trend in the media industry or think they will not be recognized for their talent. So "Speak Up"!!
