'Brother' is a song about Smashproof's South Auckland neighbourhood and how these hip hop stars want it to change - crime and violence are not the only options. It's an urgent message, delivered via a simple but powerful drive-by concept by director Chris Graham.
The clip made it into mainstream news media for a scene bluntly inspired by a high profile incident where a businessman stabbed a young tagger. Features raspy-voiced singer-songwriter Gin Wigmore as chorus.

Amazing song!
Absolutely da best song in New Zealand History of music.
Maybe not globally recongnised but still up there with "OTC, How Bizarre".
Now theres a song about the hood, next we need a song to inspire people to create a safer community, especially for our youth.
BIG UPS SMASHPROOF !!!
