Annotation — My Lai & Lt. William Calley Songs
Lil Keed, Pop Rap / Trap artist born Raqhid Jevon Render on 16 March 1998 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. The song "Ain’t Seen My Face" (Young Stoner Life) contained a small reference to the My Lai massacre as a comparison to violence in the US: "chopper send a nigga sky-high... niggas burnt out, call 'em My Lai" - this was a disproportionate comparison, as the My Lai Massacre involved the mass murder of between 300-500 civilians in the South Vietnamese area known as "Pinkville", containing the hamlets, known as My Lai 4 and My Khe 4, and throughout the area of Song My, by US forces on 16 March 1968.
