Our favorite friendly neighborhood superhero Jean Grae is usually known for blazing lyrics or satirical, humorous videos, but this time she gets serious at MADIBA restaurant on Dekalb Ave in Ft Greene/Clinton Hill, talking about her background, her parents and the importance of learning from South Africa’s struggles and Nelson Mandela’s legacy and message. Don’t know what I’m talking about? “Go online, Google it,” as Jean tells us. Happy 95th Mandela! Can’t wait for more music from Jean Grae, who is looking “Pretty In Ink“, to quote my man PH, in the video.
