KANE BROWN RELEASES POWERFUL MUSIC VIDEO FOR “WORLDWIDE BEAUTIFUL”
Today, Kane Brown released the music video to his unifying song, “Worldwide Beautiful.” Directed by Alex Alvga, the video pairs a timely message with symbolic and vivid imagery and continues the song’s “powerful” (Billboard) message of “advocating for equality and love” (Taste of Country). Watch HERE.
While walking down a desolate downtown street, Brown sings throughout the video, however, all the lead roles are played by children. The young stars in the “Worldwide Beautiful” share both a figurative and literal message: figuratively, there is the childlike ability within everyone to envision a more beautiful world; whereas, literally, the children will inherit that new world.
In her father’s arms at the end of the video, Brown’s daughter Kingsley Rose joins the other children as the stark cityscape transforms into a colorful garden.
Kane Brown co-wrote “Worldwide Beautiful” with Shy Carter, Ryan Hurd and Jordan Schmidt. Recognized for his “highly personal storytelling” (Time), Brown’s triumph over his own adverse upbringing mirrors the hope of a more beautiful world – one without fear or limitations. And, as his “Worldwide World” music video brings to light, it’s our children who will be writing the next chapter.
“Kane is leading the next generation of Nashville,” reported Billboard. “He has distinguished himself with an unorthodox path and unvarnished lyrics. He sings…about racism and growing up poor…but he’s convinced his music will ultimately bring folks together.”
“Worldwide Beautiful,” which Brown released on June 4, continues to raise funds for the Boys and Girls Club (BGCA) of America to advocate for justice and equality for millions of young people. For more info, CLICK HERE.
Brown, who recently earned three Billboard Music Award nominations for Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist, and Top Country Album for his Platinum-certified Experiment, performed “Worldwide Beautiful” on the Grand Ole Opry stage during the 55th ACM Awards on September 16. He first premiered the song on national television at the 2020 BET Awards alongside Grammy-nominated gospel singer, Jonathan McReynolds.
Praised by Billboard, Variety, and CMT, among others, “Worldwide Beautiful” was included on Brown’s Mixtape Vol. 1 EP, which he released on August 14. The seven-song collection entered the Billboard Top Country Albums chart at No. 2 and earned Brown the highest first-week on-demand streams total since Sam Hunt’s SOUTHSIDE album debut. Included on Mixtape Vol. 1 are Brown’s two current singles, the country smash, “Cool Again,” and Brown’s the Top 15-and-climbing Top 40 hit, “Be Like That,” a collaboration with Grammy-nominated artists Swae Lee and Khalid. Another collaboration among the EP’s seven tracks, all of which Brown co-wrote, is his duet with John Legend, “Last Time I Say Sorry,” which inspired People to comment, “John Legend and Kane Brown are a musical force to be reckoned with.”
“Worldwide Beautiful” Lyrics:
White churches, black churches
Different people, same hearses
It’s kinda hard to fight with each other
Laying down in the ground, six under
At every show I see my people
They ain’t the same but they’re all equal
One love, one God, one family
You’re missing every color
If you’re only seeing black and white
Tell me how you’re gonna change your mind
If your heart’s unmovable
We ain’t that different from each other
From one to another, I look around
And see worldwide beautiful
Thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God
Oh, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God
Coast to coast, city to city
Reach out your hands if you’re with me
Still got some work but we still got a dream
Every shade, every heart come together and sing
Oh, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God, thank God
You’re missing every color
If you’re only seeing black and white
Tell me how you’re gonna change your mind
If your heart’s unmovable
We ain’t that different from each other
From one to another, I look around
And see worldwide beautiful
One love, one God, one family (One family, y’all, c’mon)
One love, one God, one family (Worldwide beautiful)
One love, one God, one family (Worldwide beautiful)
One Love, one God, one family (Sing it with me)
You’re missing every color
If you’re only seeing black and white
Tell me how you’re gonna change your mind
If your heart’s unmovable
We ain’t that different from each other
From one to another, I look around
And see worldwide beautiful
Look around and see worldwide beautiful, so beautiful
Look around and see worldwide beautiful
Worldwide beautiful
Worldwide beautiful
Look around and see worldwide beautiful
