When you think of a child's first gift, what comes to your mind?

One of the earliest memories from Jovem MK was the burden of watching her dad being arrested. Growing up in a dangerous neighborhood without her father brought a tough decision: Do I become a thug like him?

The very first gift she ever received was not a doll or a ball. It was a gun, a stark reality shared by many other kids in Brazil.

Between tears and diamonds, "My Karma" by Jovem MK reflects the consequences of youth involvement in crime.
