MURS nabs MNDR for the propelling video for his Have A Nice Life release, “No More Control.” The Strange Music signee never fails to utilize his gift to speak his mind; this time, he empowers our eyes and ears through lyrics concerning the wake of ongoing police brutality and violence within the black community. Wake up and watch the emotive visuals down below.
He shared with Complex:
“āNo More Controlā is about not letting the media or the powers that be control us or guide usĀ into thinking that the problem is anything other than violence,.Ā A lot of myĀ contemporaries would have you believe that the problem is just the police, which, I am notĀ disregarding at all, I am just as sickened and fed up as everyone else with what weāve beenĀ seeing on the news.ā
āWhat about whatās not making the news?. It is very rare that someoneĀ from the hip-hop community and the black community would stand up and say, āI think theĀ majority of the opportunity for change is still in our control.ā They want us to be victims, to thinkĀ āmarch and protestā because thatās the victim role. Yes, the police are out of control, but whatĀ can we control? We can control the culture of violence in our community. Instead of looking atĀ what we can control, weāre looking at the justice system to convict these one, two, three or oneĀ hundred police officers. Bringing these killers to justice is only part of the solution.ā
