The Black Eyed Peas' Will.i.am today released a second music video, inspired by Barack Obama's Super Tuesday speech. The backbone beat is crowds wildly chanting, "OBAMA!" "OBAMA!" "OBAMA!"
Entitled "We Are the Ones," the celebrity-filled video follows the popular "Yes, We Can" video that hit YouTube. The first video was inspired by Obama's post-New Hampshire primary loss address. Political Machine first reported on the coming new video last week and interviewed video producers Jesse Dylan and Mike Jurkovac as they were filming it. Featured in the video are such diverse names and faces as Jessica Alba, Ryan Phillippe, George Lopez, Macy Gray and Forest Whitaker.
I have to say, Will and friends have produced yet another moving video. I'm not one to get all caught up in Obama and the God-like aura he seems to radiate, but this video is phenomenal. It's not just about the hope those in the video have for Obama being able to change America and the future for their children, but how hopefully, he can change how the rest of the world views our country, as well.
