Rap-Up.com || Video: Nick Cannon

Nick Cannon stands up against hate in the powerful video for “Die Young,” the first single off his upcoming album, due later this year. In the black-and-white visuals, the rapper/actor cries out for teens who were bullied because of their looks or sexual orientation. A shirtless Nick stands against a wall as he is stoned by bullies while tears roll down his face.

“Both the video and the song are deeply personal, and the track addresses real issues that so many people deal with each day,” explained Nick.

I love it. Many cannot appreciate this because they are use to trash. You should feel bad if you call this garbage.

‘A shirtless Nick stands against the wall’… Amazing how this is supposed to be a meaningful message, yet to sell it they had to show skin. o_O =/
