J.S. Ondara is a singer from Nairobi, Kenya. Ondara writes about the ironic “American Dream”.
J.S. Ondara tells NPR Music that “the video follows a man, as he sets upon a journey to purchase a weapon. While on his way, we get a glimpse of the world around him through his eyes, which gives us some insight into his state of mind. Ultimately, the video explores the turbulent times in the country, socially and politically, thereby throwing a shade of irony to the popular notion of ‘The American Dream.'” (NPR and Bob Boilen)

The American Dream means something different in everyone’s opinion. This song begins to make people question what it means to them. Might give some inspiration to change and make theirs a reality.
