Things will NEVER change until humans learn how to not feel jealousy and envy toward other humans. Equally, things will NEVER change in our communities until humans stop promoting violence. On the other hand, I enjoy seeing the unity in this video. Keep the peace.

@Eptigunraven I hardly respond to really old comments, but in this case I'll make an exception. Firstly, as much as I got love towards the NYC (I practically idolize yall), in the state New York hip hop is in now as of 3/16/12, I would say it has seen better days son. Secondly, whatever your opinions regarding Go-Go are, atleast we don't invest in the dubstep BS that's been going on lately in Hip Hop! But thanx, for the "love" and dress compliment. DMV 4Lyfe (P.G.C.) Peace Out New York!
