Enid Akuffo visited the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland through a Holocaust education program. Before visiting Auschwitz, she saw a neglected Jewish cemetery in Oswiecim, which made her realize how the Holocaust still affects today's society.

My music video challenges and conforms to conventions of the alternative hip hop genre in several ways. It challenges conventions by including a love interest narrative and making the character Alice the main focus rather than the artist. However, it also conforms to conventions through its use of monochrome coloring, extreme closeups, deserted settings, low key lighting, and abstract concepts like a kaleidoscope. The video aims to both surprise audiences with differences from typical alternative hip hop videos, while also familiarizing audiences through adherence to some common elements of the genre.
