Whether you like hip-hop music or not, you should watch and appreciate this French rap video. For those who don't understand French, this song is about discrimination and racism issues in France. Kery James, the french "lyricist" (for me, he's more than a rapper) who sings this tune is known for his social and political commitment. He used to write positive songs full of meaning, and this new one is no exception. To summarize, Kerry James addresses his lyrics to the "second France", to those who used to be discriminated. He's asking them to be proud, taking their life in their own hands, and rather than excepting everything from the State or the government they have to be motivated and brave to achieve their goals. As you may suppose, I like this kind of message, this is the genuine and deep soul of hip-hop...it is what hip hop should be. Beyond the impact of the lyrics, the video of this song uses strong and symbolic images which really fit the message. This video that puts the spotlight on people from this "second France" who manage to become someone, despite all the barriers and the hardships they face, is a very positive way (maybe one of the best) to encourage the youngsters from french subburbs - "les banlieusards" - to follow their examples...
