BJ The Chicago Kid has shared the music video for his track "It's True" featuring Schoolboy Q, which you can check out below. The clip was directed by BJ himself along with Verluxe, and features the rapper hanging around his hometown of Chicago with his friends and family, while some subtle green animation pops in and out of the frame. It's a touching yet not overly sentimental tribute to BJ's hometown, and sheds a light on the violence that has plagued the city for so long.

"It's True" isn't the first time that BJ and Schoolboy Q have collaborated. Earlier this year, BJ appeared on Schoolboy Q's hit single "Studio" from his third album Oxymoron.
According to The Boombox, "It's True" originally appeared as a hidden track on BJ's recent mixtape The M.A.F.E. Project, which was released last month. It was the rapper's fifth mixtape overall, his first since 2011's The Life of Cupid's Love, and his first full-length release since his 2012 studio album Pineapple Now-Laters.
"We've been working on this project forever," BJ told Earmilk about his latest mixtape. "It was the perfect time with the perfect stuff, and I kind of wanted to mix stuff that I grew up on with [where] I'm at with R&B right now."
In 2012, BJ signed with the legendary Motown Records, and is expected to release his full-length debut on the label some time in 2015. "My sound just matches with them," he said later on in his Earmilk interview. "I have a very soul-heavy background, growing up going to church. My stories come from the block, and that's exactly what I feel Motown embodies."
