January Show '08: Twisted Perception


This is wild. This is the true potential of those mainstream media makers that we all know and "love".

In Media, beauty isn't always pure and anything is possible! This video makes that theory very clear.

January Show '08: Youth Made Music Video "In the Streets"


This Music Video was edited/directed by a young person named Christen Cofer. He wanted to capture the true essence of the streets told by artist Inklinked feat Alonzo, so he choose to shoot it in their neighborhood. This is his perception of the rules to follow by to "survive in the streets". Music is an expression, so these rules don't have to apply to everyones lifestyle, so long as they understand that this lifestyle is lived by at-risk youth everyday in the inner-city. Check it out. According to the view through Christen and Inklinked's lense, this is how things are..."In the Streets".
