I always find it interesting how much attention is paid to hurricane devastation across the United States, while so little is paid to the overwhelming devastation that is the regularly occuring California wildfires. It seems as if the media just gives it a cursory glance on the nightly news and moves on, whereas they will spend days hyping up a hurricane that sometimes ends up a giant "nothingburger". Before you get all upset with me, please note, I live in Houston Texas and was heavily affected by 3 different hurricanes over the past 5 years, and am in no way attempting to downplay their severity. That said, I do believe the media should highlight and pay more attention to providing help for those who have lost everything in these wildfires, many of which, unlike hurricanes, could possibly have been avoided. 

Enter Chyka Jackson and her new video for "Let Me Go", an extremely moving and highly relevant tribute to those who lost their homes in the California wildfires this year and to the firefighters who have fought all year to save the state. Check out the video above, but grab some tissues before you do because it's a tearjerker.

Two years after signing with InRage Entertainment, actress and musical theatre performer Chyka Jackson filmed her debut music video in Pearblossom, California, a city devastated by the California wildfire known as the Bobcat Fire. Chyka was invited to film the beautiful tribute, directed by Nick Conroy, by a resident who's home had been completely ravaged by the fire. The resident is featured in the film and says that he held back his emotions over the loss until the day of filming.

"The song, Chyka explains, "was originally about a relationship where I felt trapped. With all of the social unrest, injustice, wildfires and chaos of 2020, I continued to develop the song with Ebony Rae Vanderveer (InRage owner and vocal/songwriting coach) over Zoom during quarantine. Then, my InRage family told me they had the perfect director for the video. And the result is more moving and beautiful than I ever imagined."

Available via InRage Entertainment's website, "Let Me Go" was co-written with InRage Entertainment owners, The Vanderveers, and produced, mixed and mastered by Grammy-nominated Sony/ATV producer Bruce Vanderveer p/k/a/ Automatic. "Let Me Go" is available for download and streaming on all major digital music retailers.
