Jasiri X - Trayvon [Music Video]

If you haven't heard about the mind-blowing injustice occurring right now in Florida regarding the police department's refusal to charge George Zimmerman's for the murder of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin despite Zimmerman's admission and lack of evidence to prove self-defense, I encourage you to read more HERE and to sign the Change.org petition as well.

To help bring light to the situation the best way he knows how, Jasiri X recorded "Trayvon" over Jay-Z and Kanye West's "No Church In The Wild." Take a look at the music video below, and make sure you use your voice to urge Norman Wolfinger, Florida's 18th District State's Attorney to investigate this case and prosecute George Zimmerman for his crime.

"For Road To Riches, we wanted to do venues in more intimate settings, more up close and personal with the fans. We'll be bringing out guests throughout, so people can expect lots of surprises. I don't measure my success by the internet or by charts, I measure it by how I see people reacting in real life."
