A poignant, powerful video from one of Chicago's fastest rising stars. The track was inspired by the heartbreaking incident at Virginia Tech, and in an unfortunate twist of fate, was recorded on February 14th, 2008. After finishing the session Kidd jumped in his car and turned on the radio, and only then learned of the shooting at nearby Northern Illinois University. The video's debut is extremely timely. With the country at war, school shootings still prevalent, and random gun violence ramping up (Kidd's hometown of Chicago is having one of its most violent summers in history), Kidd is spreading a positive message that needs to be heard.
