WALE - "SUE ME" feat. Kelly Price [Short Film]
Wale is a hip-hop cultural icon that needs to be protected at all costs. Easily my favorite rapper of the original blog era; a heavy hitter who seemed to at times in his career appear to be obsessed with this concept of a glass ceiling limiting his universal acceptance. Solidified as a household name and respected as one of the most forward thinking lyricists and poets; but never truly satisfied left Wale as one of the most interesting rap stars we’ve been blessed with growing with over the past decade.
Creatively, this is a powerful expression of high class art. The concept that our world as we know it has been flipped upside down. The racial hierarchy has been flipped for this visual off of his ‘Wow…That’s Crazy’ LP. Kudos Wale for centering such an important issue during a monumental time; more brownie points for carrying on a pop culture moment created by the wonderful Issa Rae.
