XXXTentacion Melody Turned Into Powerful Message Regarding Street Violence
By TheBlast Staff on June 25, 2018 at 11:42 PM EDT
XXXTentacion may be gone, but his music is continuing to inspire others and has now been turned into a viral video by a hip-hop artist trying to explain the senseless street killings to his young daughter.
The video, which has been viewed almost 500,000 times since last night's post and shared by celebs like Safaree, uses XXXTentacion's song "Changes" as the backdrop for a powerful image of a man holding a handgun to the back of another man who is explaining to his daughter the truth about violence on the streets.
Up and coming artists GUNJIN and Dashmylo use the beginning of X's lyrics before transitioning t the conversation between the father and the young girl.
The message is not just a response for the death of the 20-year-old hip-hop star, but also for 15-year-old Lesandro "Junior" Guzman-Feliz who was brutally murdered in the Bronx last week by a violent street gang after a case of mistaken identity.
