Nothing Real Is Happening

Action speaks louder than words. And John Legend practices what he preaches in this powerful music video for his new single.

In the breathtaking visual, John Legend wakes up alongside his wife and walks into a empty gymnasium where he is met by chaotic events. While preaching in a church, a boarder patrol stops an immigrant family before separating the mother and daughter apart.

During a traffic stop, an unarmed Afro-American teen gets racially profiled resulting into a senseless killing by police. Elsewhere, an armed Caucasian student is freed his encounter while in route to a carry out a school mass shooting.

More tragedy unfolds as students are slaughtered, condolences are shared a young boy’s funeral and tension rises at a protest that results with Father Legend taken into custody. The visual sadly fades with the black teen donning his angelic wings on top of a police cruiser.
