Wyclef Jean dropped a video for a song called "Justice (If You're 17)" as a tribute to Trayvon Martin. The song's chorus reminds us of the potential that was lost when Martin was shot and killed last year, with Wyclef saying "He coulda been the next President/He coulda been the next Steve Jobs." The video appears to be a recreation of the shooting incident, with a boy shown talking to his girlfriend on the phone before he gets confronted by another individual. Meanwhile, Wyclef is in the studio, singing the song and strumming along on his guitar.
