Earlier today, our OKP fam had the premiere for the third video off of Invincible’s latest album, Shapeshifters.
Here Invincible touches on subject matter often ignored by the mainstream. The themes around the song are the issues of depression and suicide. As she talks about in the song’s intro, these topics were apparently too controversial for MTV. “Ropes” aims to break the pattern of turning a blind eye to mental health issues, and to begin the process of healing. Take heed to the heavy lyrics and watch the Mr. Complex directed video above.
Dopest female emcee ever.

MTV finds this “problematic” because the songs has substance and meaning and since they like to keep the youth dumb! yep this song might cause a problem to people watching Sweet 16 or whatever shit they are playing,

Invincible is one of my favorite Emcee’s. Her delivery is eloquent..she is lyrically untouchable…and passionately driven to speak truth and challenge the system! DOPE!

Glad to hear positive posts on her. Good video too. One of the reasons a good artist can’t get a break. Thanks again MTV.
