Peace y'all, it's your boy Johnny Fastlane here with allhiphop.com

So, IDK premieres his new video on the beat with Ari Melber
0:08
Let's talk hip hop. All right, y'all, so this situation is crazy, right
0:14
Because IDK went to Ari Melber's show, The Beat, and premiered his brand new video, man
0:20
The video is also available on IDK's YouTube now, but it wasn't before the premiere
0:26
So the whole situation is Ari Melber, he was like, listen, I got IDK here, right
0:31
We're about to premiere this new video called Mr. Police, and that is not anywhere else
0:36
It's not a stream of services right now. You can't find it until after the show, right
0:41
So it was pretty cool because the video, they premiered it there, and man, it is very hard
0:47
to watch. I will tell you that. But it shows a lot of police pulling over black and brown people in cars for like three
0:54
minutes straight, just harassing them, just tying the ticket, you know, just being assholes
0:58
to them, right? It was crazy because IDK kind of spoke about the video
1:03
He said that making the song was pretty easy for him and very organic because that's something
1:08
that he used to go through, right? Let me also explain that, you know, today he doesn't feel like any ill will towards
1:14
the police at all because he's a celebrity. But of course, there are other people that do still feel like that
1:20
So he made the song for that, right? And for awareness of it all, right
1:25
They were also joined by another activist as well. So it was a really good conversation around the music video, and it was a really good
1:33
look for IDK, if I must say, you know what I'm saying? But either way, man, check it out
1:38
And yeah, let me know what y'all think about this in the comments
