'I want to draw attention through my platform as an artist to a problem in America that is out of control and is taking the lives of innocent people. This crisis can end if our legislators act to change the laws that fail to protect us all.'
Madonna has never been one to shy away from controversy in her music videos, but her new clip for “God Control,” lensed by her frequent collaborator Jonas Åkerlund, may be her most shocking — and important — yet.
The juxtaposition of scenes of carefree clubbing with scenes of brutality and bloodshed is extremely chilling.“Everybody knows the damn truth/ Our nation lied/We've lost respect/When we wake up/What can we do?/Get the kids ready/Take them to school/Everybody knows/They don't have a chance/To get a decent job/To have a normal life/When they talk reforms/It makes me laugh,” sings Madonna, a mother of six.
In a statement released in conjunction with the video, Madonna explained,"I want to draw attention through my platform as an artist to a problem in America that is out of control and is taking the lives of innocent people. This crisis can end if our legislators act to change the laws that fail to protect us all."
