Keke Palmer Addresses National Guard Soldiers at L.A. Protest: ‘March Beside Us’
The actress led a passionate exchange between protesters and National Guard soldiers during one of the many protests on Tuesday afternoon. Keke Palmer appeared to engage in a meaningful conversation with National Guard soldiers on Tuesday in Los Angeles, speaking out against President Donald Trump’s rhetoric and requesting that the armed officers march with the protesters. In a clip that has now gone viral — posted by NBC News correspondent Gadi Schwartz on Tuesday afternoon — Palmer can first be heard addressing a May 29 tweet posted by President Donald Trump in which he wrote “when the looting starts, the shooting starts.” “You have a president talking about the Second Amendment as a use for people to come out here and use firearms against the people protesting. This is the m...
Baker Boy, Australian Hip-Hop Star, Shares Powerful Statement on ‘Rampant’ Racism Down Under
Baker Boy, the award-winning indigenous Australian rapper, has shared a powerful statement on the insidious nature of racism around the globe and in his homeland. Taking to Instagram, the hip-hop artist explains that he’s been called out for “not publicly sharing my rage about what is happening right now.” Baker (real name Danzal Baker) says he chooses a “path of positivity and light” with his musical persona, and typically leaves politics out of his dialogue on social media. There’s no doubt about it, he’s feeling pain like so many others. “Every damn day,” he writes. “I am a Yolngu Man from North East Arnhem Land,” he writes. “I am angry. I am scared. I feel every negative emotion that there is to feel about what happened to George Floyd.” He continues, “I feel these emotions EVERY DAMN ...

Source: WENN/Avalon / WENN The murder of George Floyd has now been seen by millions and now, new details surrounding the Houston native’s senseless death have come forth.

L.A. Police Encourage White Woman To Spray Paint “BLM” & “George Floyd”?
Source: Pacific Press / Getty It’s not secret that police officers treat white people a whole helluva lot different than Black and Brown Americans but encouraging vandalism in the name of George Floyd?! That a whole new level of “WTF?!” Yesterday TMZ posted a video of LAPD officers not only encouraging a white woman to continue spray panting “BLM” on a smashed store front, but even instructed her to include George Floyd’s name in her bombing. The video was shot in what appears to be downtown Los Angeles, where an LAPD squad car is parked up next to a curb alongside a lady who’s going to town with spray paint, tagging “BLM” messaging on the side of a building’s windows … taking up at least 3 panes. While the person who recorded this was filming from across the street, you can still make out...

According to Leonard Ellerbe, the CEO of Mayweather Promotions, the Floyd family has accepted his offer. “He’ll probably get mad at me for saying that, but yes, [Mayweather] is definitely paying for the funeral,” he told ESPN on Monday, June 1. “Floyd has done these kind of things over the last 20 years,” he added. The gesture came about through an unexpected six degrees of separation. Anzel Jennings, CEO of The Money Team Record Label, apparently grew up with Ge...

GRiZ Celebrates 30th Birthday with Funky New Single and Kaleidoscopic Music Video
EDM’s in-house funk master general, GRiZ, is celebrating his 30th birthday today by releasing a new single called “Solo.” “Solo” features hip-hop and R&B singer-songwriter and frequent collaborator ProbCause, who infuses a splash of soul into the ambient funk ballad. Along with the single’s release came an accompanying music video that is quintessential GRiZ. During the video’s entirety, GRiZ dances on his rooftop under a picturesque sky, which is overlaid with neon filters to create a kaleidoscopic effect. It harkens back to GRiZ’s pre-pandemic “Imaginarium” live production, which was marked by an awe-inspiring symphony of polychromatic lasers. “Solo” is the first single off GRiZ’s forthcoming Chasing The Go...
G-Eazy Drops New Marshmello-Produced Track “Stan By Me”
Ahead of the release of his upcoming album Everything’s Strange Here, G-Eazy has reunited with Marshmello for the poolside singalong, “Stan By Me.” Released just one week after the debut single from the album, “Free Porn Cheap Drugs,” G-Eazy’s shift in style is very apparent. While his songs are traditionally rapped, his two newest releases see him show off his singing voice. Despite being produced by one of EDM’s biggest names, the track is not electronic in nature. The masked producer flaunts his production flexibility with a gentle, guitar-led groove intertwined with bubbly drums that can’t help but make you think of the beach. “Stan By Me” is not the first time these two artists have collaborated.
