George Floyd: Music industry calls for 'blackout' over death......

[MMC]

The music industry is calling for a "Blackout Tuesday" in response to George Floyd's death.


All three major record labels have shared a message on social media promising "a day to disconnect from work and reconnect with our community".


Employees have been given Tuesday off as "a day of action," intended to "provoke accountability and change".


Interscope vowed not to release new music this week, while Apple Music's Ebro Darden cancelled his radio shows.


Many of music's biggest stars have spoken out about the father-of-two's death.


Other pop stars, including Ariana Grande, J Cole, Tinashe, Nick Cannon, Yungblud, Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes, joined protestors across the US over the weekend.



As anger spread through the music community, a message spread on social media calling on the industry to "take an urgent step of action to provoke accountability and change".


"As gatekeepers of the culture, it's our responsibility to not only come together to celebrate the wins, but also hold each other up during loss," reads the statement, which circulated under the hashtag #TheShowMustBePaused.


Among those reposting the message were Warner Music Group, Sony/ATV, Universal Music, Motown, Capitol Records, British label Dirty Hit, Eminem's Shady Records and legendary producer Quincy Jones.


"We stand together with the black community against all forms of racism, bigotry, and violence," said Columbia Records, which is home to Beyonce, Pharrell Williams, Lil Nas X, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Adele......snip~

As you can see its not about Floyd. Not about Police Brutality. Not about excessive Force.....its about the Democrat and leftist agenda. Racism.

So they decide to give our ears a break from the racist anti-America pro drug gangsta rap?

I don't know HOW I could possibly face the day.
