There's a Yiddish proverb that says " The soldiers fight and the kings are heroes". New Orleans lyricist Dee-1 is both a soldier and a hero. As a soldier he is fighting for change, Jesus, positivity, and mission vision . He is using his heart and voice to change lives. As a hero he is saving the youth and adults by being real, righteous, and relevant. This guy is so strong and unstoppable. This week Dee-1 released the visuals for his song "My Student Got Murdered (Both Sides Of The Gun) off of his 3's Up EP. The song is based on a true story. Dee-1 was a teacher in New Orleans before leaving the class room to pursue his dream as an artist. These boys that Dee-1 speaks on in this song were his students. These two kids definitely meant a lot to him and this murder affected Dee-1 heavy because he knew the shooter and the victim (both sides of the gun) .However, to be honest and tell the truth Dee-1 is still teaching through his music and videos. His classroom just got bigger . It isn't inside of a building the world is his classroom. He is unafraid to tell the truth, speak up, and say what needs to be said . He is standing for something real and that can not be shaken or moved. This video is proof that the violence needs to stop, that our youth needs us, and that what happens at home can have a positive or negative outcome .Therefore things needs to be changed in households all over. The shirt that Dee-1 wears reads "Silence Is Violence". Deep right? Another truth. Not speaking up and keeping quiet doesn't help the situation at all. Speaking up about the injustice can go a long way. So world continue to pay attention to the man on a mission. It's mission vision ya heard me.
