Bilal’s video for the Satellites is probably one of the best visuals you will see all year.  Most of the video is dedicated to the track itself and show the singer as an intergalactic traveler who observes the sadness of the human condition and try to help people overcome it.  The second part of the video is #BlackLivesMatter movement where, over a track we’re going to call Lunatic, we see that the spaceman idea might all be in his head and he is set upon by two cops who, thinking he’s crazy, decide he is a danger.  The video then show that he is placed in a chokehold and strangled long past the moment he stops resisting.

Two powerful messages in one strong video.
