Big Sean released the video for the latest Dark Sky Paradise single, “One Man Can Change The World.” The inspirational tune is a long way from the album’s lead single, the vindictive hit “I Don’t Fuck With You.” Here Sean teams up with Kanye West and John Legend for a sweet piano-ballad inspired by the rapper’s grandmother, who became one of the first black female captains in World War II and one of Detroit’s first female police officers. “My grandma told me if you write your name in stone you'll never get the white out,” Sean raps. “I grinded out that black hole then performed up at the white house.” The video, directed by Andrew Hines and Jeff Powers and shot in black and white, sticks closely to the song’s narrative, following a young boy who appears trapped in a violent world.
