Bay Area Rap Icon Paris Chronicle Effects  
of Gun Violence on New Video

San Francisco, CA - Politically astute Bay Area hip-hop artist Paris has a long lasting career filled with incendiary lyrics and shocking videos. But with over 4 million in sales to his credit, Paris still feels the need to chronicle the escalating gun violence-related loss of life, which he refers to as his community's holocaust.

In "Buck, Buck, Pass," the latest video from his forthcoming double album, Pistol Politics, Paris chronicles the carnage - but with a twist - detailing the journey of the life of a firearm from its perspective, from its manufactured inception to its illegal use on America's streets.

While not a call for gun control (Paris is a staunch supporter of self-defense), it is a commentary on gun violence, its often ignored racial implications and its after effects, providing a spotlight on what he considers to be the real enemy - the corporate and political machinery that benefits from the steady diet of death of mainly young people of color.

Pistol Politics hits stores September 11, 2015.  Pre-order today: http://amzn.to/1hdO3UB for physical; Digital Pre-order the week of 8/17
