BET’s Neighborhood Based Series #BLX Visits KEM’s Hometown [FULL VIDEO] @MusicbyKEM @BET

BET’s series BLX (pronounced “Blocks”) has been detailing the home environments of many of our favorite artists and entertainers. In concise videos no more than four minutes long, we get intimate pieces of narrative from the people whose art inspires us. This week, they make the trip to Detroit to visit Kem‘s hometown. In a moment of admirable candor, Kem takes us to his old haunts, as he recalls his time spent as a homeless man and addict. Listen to him tell his story in the video below.
