The sad story of Trayvon Martin, the 17-year-old boy shot to death allegedly due to him appearing threatening while wearing a hoodie, has been a hot topic the last few weeks. And outspoken and politically-minded artist Wyclef Jean is sharing his thoughts on the matter in the form of a tribute song, “Justice (If You’re 17)”. “He could have been the next president… if you’re 17 with a hoodie on, watch out for the neighborhood,” sings Jean, wearing a hoodie himself. Watch the visuals and hear the song above, and tell us what you think of Wyclef’s tribute in the comments, or on Facebook and Twitter.
