Can anyone help with this music video?

Can anyone help with this (unless I have completely imagined it!!). My daughter is doing a project at school that involves gun crime and Hip Hop / Rap artisits.
I seem to remember that in recent times there was a video, and in the background there were pictures (in black and white I think) of various artists that had been shot, Tupac etc, a sort of tribute, I think it also showed their years of birth and death.
Does anyone know the name of this video or who sang it. Or at least can anyone confirm that I have actually gone mad!!

Many thanks

Abs

I don't think so. I think!! it was sung by someone else and Tupac was just one of the people in the tribute, there were several others that had been shot as well.

Think it might be, thought it might be an Eminem track but was trying to find a link. There is a video link on MTV for it but doesn't show the whole video.

It's not the one, but it's very helpful, as in in has someone shot.

I hate it when you get older and you don't know if something is a real memory or whether your mind has just made it up!!
The one I am thinking of has pictures/video in the background of quite a few different hip hop stars that have been shot over the years. It was a bit of a tribute to them whilst also sending the message that guns are bad.

I can actually remember that video, just wish I could remember the artist.

At least I have not gone completely mad then!!

It's not fair, it's my daughters project and I have been racking my brain thinking of nothing else for the last 24 hours, and she just casually trots off to school with not a care in the world expecting me to come up with the answer. My work is piling up and being ignored until I get this one......
