“Don’t Go To School Tomorrow.” The haunting introduction begins with the warning signs. The consistency of loss in the ever pervasive conversation of gun violence that has taken over our society and just like every problem, there must be a solution. This is a pacifistic solution. The debut EP Teachers with Guns Vol. 1, by Detroit based hip hop supergroup, Teachers With Guns, compromised of John McCartney (vocals), Heizenburr! (Production), Nbdys 100 (vocals) & the late Dxpe Dilla (Production), keeps the focus on the daily life of the average American student faced with the realization that tomorrow they could wake up and find themselves contemplating their mortalities before their lives truly begin. As you listen through the EP, you will find yourself stepping into the shoes of your neighborhood youth and wonder if this is the way their lives were meant to be lived as their world view is consistently shattered. Is there any hope for them to still see through the lens of innocence, the blossoming of young love and true happiness or will the never ending threat of death at the hands of gun violence, pandemics and race wars forever be their reality?
