Vic Mensa's 'Camp America' - the most political music video of the year

White kids in orange jumpsuits jumping in cages, and drinking toilet water makes for the most political music video of the year, as Guardian puts it. It's the debut single from Vic Mensa’s politically charged new project dubbed 93PUNX (he's a rapper, but his favourite band is the Clash) - "I like music and art with dimension that you can appreciate on different levels”, as he puts it. The root of the problems and injustice, as he sees it, lies in imperialistic capitalism: “Whether it’s Trump, Obama, Clinton or Bush, behind the scenes the same things go in any presidency by nature when the dollar is the most valuable commodity above all else, even human life”.
