SACRAMENTO, Calif. — As part of a new police recruitment campaign, the Sacramento Police Department has released a music video featuring Sacramento Officer Filmore Graham, who is also a Grammy-nominated artist, reports Sacramento City Express.
Graham, an 18-year police veteran who goes by his stage name of Izreal, has performed at the SXSW music festival and produced several albums.
“I am honored and humbled that the chief and the department asked me to do this,” Graham told the Sacramento City Express. “It’s important to highlight that this is an opportunity to be a difference, for anyone looking for a career or just coming out of college. Our officers have an opportunity to make a difference every day.”
