T.I. highlights police brutality with new video WarZone
Grammy award winning rapper T.I. turns the table on all lives matter highlighting police brutality with his new video Warzone.
T.I. is standing up to the hashtag “All Lives Matter” with his new compelling video, “Warzone”.
About T.I.’s Warzone video
In the video, Black police officers harass and kill white civilians, re-enacting the police killings of Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, and Philando Castile.
The Atlanta rapper took a very different approach, in what appears he’s trying to explain to the All Lives Mattter crowd, that all lives really don’t matter.
Another said to All Lives Matter
In an interview about the video’s concept, T.I. told NBCBLK that “Warzone” is a direct confrontation with those claiming “All Lives Matter,” a common refrain that’s emerged alongside the “Black Lives Matter” movement.
“We wanted to give ‘the other side’ ― and when I say the ‘other side’ I don’t mean police, I don’t mean white people, I mean people who think we’re just overreacting, the ‘All Lives Matter’ people,” he said.
The Grammy Award artist also went on to add that he specifically chose the fatal incidents to help convey his message.
“We wanted to give them the least amount of ammunition to oppose our message. And the way to do that, we thought, was to go with the most atrocious of all of the travesties. And don’t get me wrong, there are still more that are equally atrocious, but for the purposes of our video … those were the ones that seemed most effective.”
