16 Shots

Vic Mensa, a Chicago-based rapper, released the searingly intense music video for "16 Shots" on October 27, 2016. The video, directed by Ian Pons Jewell, addresses the contentious issue of police brutality and is inspired by the fatal shooting of Laquan McDonald, an unarmed 17-year-old African American boy, by a Chicago police officer in 2014. The video, which clocks in at just over four minutes, is a powerful and evocative portrayal of the events leading up to McDonald's death and the subsequent protests and unrest that ensued in Chicago.
