Jabee drops his new video for the track titled ‘Praying Hands’, coinciding with the release of his new album ‘This World Is So Fragile And Cruel I’m Glad I Got You’. Jabee is someone who, after becoming more familiar with his work in such a recent time, who is as much a poet as a rap artist. An activist as much as a lyricist. A social commentator. Do we need people like that in this day? More than ever. As many as we can get. Do more than listen. Analyze and interpret. Ingest. Then listen again.
