Beginning with a deadly exchange of bullets between two rival gangs is how Big Sean’sLawrence Lamont-directed video for “Light” featuring Jeremih starts. The shootout leaves an innocent little girl playing on her front yard dead, while gang members deal with their differences with violence.

With the beginning scene Sean Don looks to shed “Light” on different topics inner-cities deal with. The gang violence is only one of the subjects touched on in the video, along with police brutality, discrimination, racism, and other social topics.

“We shot this video a couple months ago and sucks to see these scenes are still consistently playing out in real life…even down to this week. It’s disheartening sometimes to see that not much has changed when it comes to hate, police brutality n just overall people losing their lives too early. But when I wrote this song, it was to reassure myself that no matter what happens, they can’t take away our Soul, our confidence, our ideas, n all that makes us shine,” Big Sean wrote on an Instagram post.
