Plies 100 Years Video

Miami rapper Plies has a new video out for his song "100 Years." The song is about the justice system's faults, and young black men getting locked up for extensive sentences while the white guys seemingly get away with it. It's questionable, but it's the man's opinion and he is undoubtedly sticking to it. However, it's a little extreme. In the video, he shows a black man getting sentenced to jail as the judge laughs and soon after a white man sneaks away from a sentence because of his skin color. These kind of songs are sure to cause controversy, if not riots, but Plies feels that it's his place to speak his mind and forget the consequences. Check it out and discuss your views on the matter.
