Source: YO6 / Elvis Brown Off first listen, you’d think rapper and songwriter Elvis Brown was all about the cash. Of course, this is an important factor, but with his debut album Second Coming , Elvis proves there’s much more to it. The music video for his song “Yummy” opens with a mother figure telling him his cousin received a life sentence. The following visuals show Elvis living the good life, but still facing the isolation that comes with the grind. “I pray that my cousins come home this year,” he raps, “I wish my auntie didn’t cry those tears.” An introspective thought from someone who’s worked with names like Post Malone, TLC , and Trinidad James . Check out the emotional scenes from “Yummy” below and be sure to listen to Second Coming on all major streaming platforms now!

Trinidad James appeared on CNN Tonight with Don Lemon to provide his perspective on the use of the N-word in rap. This comes right on the heels of the SAE “House Mother” who was caught on tape gleefully yelling the slur over and over into a camera, claiming she was simply reciting the lyrics to James’ 2013 hit “All Gold Everything.” Hit the flip for the debate.
