Rapper Dru B Shinin’ dropped the single “Come Back To Me” off his upcoming “All American” album. In his music, he continues to explore the woes of the American economy and culture. The Texas-based emcee keeps it real with his message on the track. Complementing his song are visuals on the basketball court. It’s all simple and to the point. Is the American Dream as we used to know it gone? Are we on the right track with the “new” American Way? Maybe we just need the “old” America to come back to all of us.
