Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)

This is a video I made using the classic Marvin Gaye song, "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)". At the beginning of the video, I wanted to throw the viewer right into the time frame of the video flashing the notable leaders who were assassinated during the 1960s such as MLK, Malcolm X, JFK and Robert Kennedy. The rest of the video was used to try and enhance Marvin's lyrics of poverty, racial tension, the Vietnam War and other issues of that specific time. Its ironic how some of these same issues still exist today only through different titles of propaganda. I hope you enjoy and take care.

Makes me want to holler, throw up both my hands... when people think that the present is any different from two thousand years ago... human nature doesn't change even with iPhones.

The best part, is this song is still relevant today. Long live Marvin Gaye!

Marvin was basically saying we are all ruled by an unseen hand that has complete power and not only creates the issues but confuses them in order to control the mostly ignorant populace.
