Rapper Jim Jones has contributed a song to the upcoming documentary entitled Lockdown USA, according to allhiphop.com. The film examines a coalition of activists working to change the Rockefeller Drug Laws.
Lockdown USA features people who are incarcerated under the Rockefeller Drug Laws, community members, mothers and various leaders from the Hip-Hop community.
The screening takes place tomorrow in Albany, New York, when the New York State Assembly votes on legislation to further reform the sentencing guidelines of the drug laws, which are considered by many to be the harshest in the United States.
The film premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival last May and will officially be released in June, along with Jones’ single which will speak against the drug laws.
