Artist: Tip
Song: “Warzone”
Producer:
EP: Us or Else
Director: Laureal Richardson
Tip continued with his politically-charged tunes last week by releasing the new song “Warzone.” Today, the Atlanta rapper has followed that up with the official music video, directed by Laureal Richardson. The music video finds Tip imagining the unlawful murders by police officers if the roles were reversed, with black police officers pursuing white citizens in suburban neighborhoods.
We see in the visual a teen going to the playground and aiming his toy gun around, which is a reenactment of the tragic Tamir Rice shooting. Other police killings that are reenacted as race reversal are that of Eric Garner and Philando Castile.
“Warzone” is the latest single taken from T.I’s upcoming Us or Else EP, releasing soon.
