What I'm Watching ... SoulStice "Strange Kinda Love" [Vid]

I posted this track a few months back. I said when I initially posted the track, that it's straight real talk! I continue to applaud SoulStice for putting this track out and taking a not so "safe" stance as a hip-hop artist. Glad to see there's a video for it now. Dope track. Check it!
"Strange Kinda Love is a song about universal love and tolerance. Since it was originally released, it's won four songwriting contests, including the Billboard World Song Contest. In it, I reflect on my experience as part of an interracial couple and recall that it wasn't long ago that my wife and I couldn't have gotten married in the US. Today's "free love" struggle centers around the LGBT community and same-sex marriage. I'm happy to report that since I wrote this song, five states and the District of Columbia now issue same-sex marriage licenses and five more provide equivalent spousal rights. We've got a long way to go, but we're moving in the right direction."
