Big Sean Delivers Powerful New Visual for "Light"

Video screenshot

Big Sean continues to release visuals from last February’s release I Decided. His latest is an emotionally-charged clip for the project’s opening track “Light,” which features Jeremih.

In the video, we see a van-driving Sean acting as a guide to the heavens for victims of three tragic events: a young girl caught in a drive-by shooting, two youths killed by police and a Muslim woman being stabbed during an apparent hate crime/robbery. The Detroit emcee also explained via social media (unedited):

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. This song isn’t a single but is still super important to me, so I paid for a lot of this outta pocket to make sure we got this out. Rest in peace to all those who have lost life due to senseless actions. As I always say, each one of us have the power to make a change, it starts within….the inner Light.

Check out “Light” below and — if you haven’t already — listen to I Decided. here.
