Murs takes a stand against black-on-black violence and police brutality in the video for "No More Control," a cut from his latest project Have A Nice Life. The politically charged video features a young black male out promoting a "Black Lives Matter" rally and dealing with harassment from police on the street and growing up around drug dealers at home. Guided and supported by his older brother/mentor, the young man is clearly a diamond in the rough and doing all he can to make the best of his situation. Once at the rally, the video ends tragically as Murs holds a "Black Lives Matter" poster to create a lasting image.

"'No More Control' is about not letting the media or the powers that be control us or guide us into thinking that the problem is anything other than violence," said Murs in a statement. "A lot of my contemporaries would have you believe that the problem is just the police, which, I am not disregarding at all, I am just as sickened and fed up as everyone else with what we've been seeing on the news. But what about what's not making the news? It is very rare that someone from the hip-hop community and the black community would stand up and say, 'I think the majority of the opportunity for change is still in our control.' They want us to be victims, to think 'march and protest' because that's the victim role. Yes, the police are out of control, but what can we control? We can control the culture of violence in our community. Instead of looking at what we can control, we're looking at the justice system to convict these one, two, three or one hundred police officers. Bringing these killers to justice is only part of the solution."
