God-des releases politically charged video "Living in America"

We all know today is Election Day and hip-hop artist God-des has released a new song/video with their thoughts on the current climate in America. The premiere at Out Front Magazine said “A politically charged hip-hop project, ‘Living in America’ unfolds as a hard-hitting, but immediately catchy rallying cry for change. With its urgent beat and soulful piano tunes, God-Des showcases her masterful vocal flow and razor-sharp wordplay. God-Des fires off on police brutality, systematic racism, corporate greed, and conservative hypocrisy. With the 2020 presidential election only days away, she is not the only artist expressing raw outrage and irrepressible hope.”
