The event surrounding Grant’s killing — along with the current political, social and economical circumstances — served as an inspiration for the concept of this song and, eventually, the video. The family of Oscar Grant is featured in the clip, along with a fleet of artists that joined Killer Mike in his effort to deliver a strong and powerful message to his audience, including Diddy, Curren$y, The Cool Kids, Mistah Fab, and Filthy Rich who all make cameos.

"An artist is born, not trained. They got the power to create something out of nothing out of their mind. It’s an advanced imagination and you can actually use your hands to see what’s in your mind to create something. That’s a DNA trait. That’s not taught. Great artists always suffer on the other end. I can never run out of ideas to do artwork with. It’s unlimited amounts, enough that I stay up cause I constantly see it. But I’m using that percentage of my brain. I can’t remember no number past 4. I won’t remember no time you tell me. I had to hire other people to do that. I gotta spend money on that because it’s my downfall. But when it comes to money and counting, I’m great. I just can’t remember. If I had to remember a number, I remember it by pictures. People think that’s a disability. I’m like, I’m successful." Read More

Unearthed documents show that the drug company Bayer sold millions of dollars worth of an injectable blood-clotting medicine -- Factor VIII concentrate, intended for hemophiliacs -- to Asian, Latin American, and some European countries in the mid-1980s, although they knew that it was tainted with AIDS. Bayer knew about the fact that the drug was tainted and told the FDA to keep things under wraps while they made a profit off of a drug that infected its patients. If these allegations are true, then both Bayer and the FDA are at fault for this catastrophe. FDA regulators helped to keep the continued sales hidden, asking the company that the problem be "Quietly solved without alerting the Congress, the medical community and the public".
