Chris Brown is highlighting gang violence in the second single from his upcoming album “X.” Featuring previously unreleased vocals from the late singer Aaliyah, “Don’t Think They Know” hit airwaves on Monday.
The accompanying video opens with a statement saying that “every two hours in America today a child dies of a gunshot wound.” Brown then takes viewers on a journey through Compton, California alongside local youth. Shot almost entirely in black and white, the video finds Brown uniting rival gang members.
When he’s not in Compton, Brown appears alongside two projections of the late Aaliyah as they join together for the song’s chorus. The video is dedicated to his late friend Lil Frogg, as well as Aaliyah, who he thanks for “inspiring us all.”
“X” is scheduled to hit stores on July 16th.
