Malkovich - Palms



This song was send to my mailbox and I forgot to give it a listen, after listening I kinda felt that I shouldve shared it way earlier becuase its actually a pretty good song and it deserves more exposure!

A man dying slowly in the truck he calls home. Another, hauling boxes at a market in exchange for a spot in a storage box where he sleeps each night. Immigrants, actors, recovering drug addicts, college students and true blue Angelenos, all trying to rent themselves one more month in the waiting room, one more month for their dreams to come true. This is life in Palms, L.A.'s most diverse and densely populated neighborhood, where Snoop Dogg caught his murder case, and where "everybody's on their way somewhere else", as emcee and eight-year resident Malkovich says on his dedication to his adopted home. The people and places of Palms take center stage in the video, directed, filmed and edited firsthand by Malkovich.
