In honor of Yom Yashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day), Bekay and DB put together some visuals for their latest collaboration.
Remember means a great deal to me personally and to those who have dealt with oppression in any capacity. I have relatives who fled from Europe due to religious persecution during the holocaust and so my involvement with this project is a matter of intense personal interest both as an artist and more importantly as a human being. Although this video captures the oppression of the Jewish people during the Holocaust, it’s intended for any man, woman, or child that has dealt with racism or oppression in one form or another as these issues are still very much alive in 2011.
As an artist, I take great pride in creating authentic music that is both timeless and relevant, intended for the everyday people that are dealing with the trials and tribulations of life. Sadly, I find that the current generation of hip-hop has turned a blind eye to issues that matter, which is contrary to the very building blocks of the art form. Language is a powerful tool and I consider it an obligation for anyone calling themself an emcee to use our words not just for the sake of rhyming, but to transmit our culture and history.
Let us all REMEMBER these tragic events in history so we can never let anything like this happen again. Yom Hashoah. – Bekay

This is deep! One hundred percent supporting him!
Bekay’s Jewish? My respect for him just went way up.
לעולם לא עוד
never again
DAMNNNNNNNNNNNN! I CAN HONESTLY SAY THE QUALITY OF THIS AND EVERYTHING OVERALL IS ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. CLAP IT UP FOR “HIP HOP” EVERYONE! BEKAY JUST MOVED UP A LOT IN MY BOOK
As a fan of Bekay for almost a decade I think it’s safe to say he’s on the very top of his game right now. I got the chills all over when watching this. I haven’t felt this way about any music in so long. Great job whoeveer shot this and awesome job by Bekay. Is Bekay signed to a major?
One of the few rappers that got balls to make a song about a topic like this. Damn. You need to support this, it can’t get realer than this.
This was so deep. I felt like i was in slavery all over again.smh.this song needs a award grammy or something.
incredibly powerful stuff right here!!
My brother DJ DBEfekt and Deer Studio Records were the masterminds behind this video production. Check them out at DeerStudioRecords[dot]com. Shout out to DB, Sarka, TPorez, and Snooze! Props to Bekay as well for killin the rhymes.
This is the type of music i want to hear when i turn on the radio and the type of video i want to see when i turn on the TV…no one in the game has the nerve to be relevant these days so i give a lot of props to Bekay for putting this out there…the song is powerful and has a real message and the video is amazing…BEKAY IS ILL!!!!
This is really dope. Bekay is a true lyricist and this is what we need in the hip hop world. I heard he is signing to Atlantic actually. Not sure thought I think he should stay indie. All they put out is bullshit and this is way to REAL for the little kids nowadays. Maybe music like this can open up some eyes if the younger cats get a chance to hear it, cause this is what Hip Hop is suppossed to be, a real, raw artform with a message, not Drake talking about money and girls, lol.
Hottest shit I seen and heard in years. Not even kidding. Bekay has to have a major deal
The fact that Bekay is an indie artist shows how fucked up the major labels really are. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THIS VIDEO AND LYRICAL CONTECNT IS EONS BEYOND ANYONE OUT RIGHT NOW WITH THE EXCEPTION OF EMINEM. THIS IS REAL TRUE ARTFORM CAllED HIPHOP! THANK YOU BEKAY, HANG IN THERE KID YOUR DAY IS COMING
