About the Film: "DOLLAR 2 THE RICH" is an ode to mental health. The narrative music video is primarily a "one-take" music video that starts with a young LaRussell seeing his adult family and friends engaging in activities that plague our community. The video addresses some generational curses that black people or people in poverty face and tackles the stigma of asking for professional help.
