Wale has unveiled the video to accompany his latest single “The White Shoes.” The enlightening message in the video is represented by a teen, who is able to save enough money from his hardwork in order to purchase a new pair of Air Jordan 11 sneakers, only to tragically have it stripped by his jealous peers. Wale effectively calls for reflection, and acknowledges the senseless violent actions in order to illegally attain sneakers, which are mere factory products and not a true representative of self-worth. Wale’s fourth studio LP The Album About Nothing is now available for purchase via iTunes.
