George Floyd… let that sink in.I was asked to write an essay about George Floyd and how the music community, country in particular, can play a role in healing. First and foremost, I cannot write anything until I acknowledge the murders of Tamir Rice, Walter Scott, Botham Jean, Philando Castile, Atatiana Jefferson, Dominique Clayton, Michelle Cusseaux, Walter Scott, Antwon Rose II, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.

As George Floyd protests continue to rage in the US, celebrities are taking a stand to speak up and contribute in their own little way. Selena Gomez is one such star.

Kanye West was among hundreds of others who protested in Chicago on June 4. The rapper kept a low profile as he joined a crowd of protesters for George Floyd and Black Lives Matter. A local Chicago morning show host, Kendra G, shot video of Kanye marching. He stayed silent while wearing a protective face mask and the hood of his sweatshirt pulled up.

While citizens nationwide are protesting the death of George Floyd, who died after a Minneapolis officer kneeled on his neck for nine minutes, musicians and others in the music industry are also speaking up and looking for ways to help end racism and bring about accountability.We at Billboard -- like the many artists, companies, music industry professionals and more -- are also adding our voices to stand in solidarity. A message from Billboard.

The music industry will turn silent and observe Blackout Tuesday in solidarity with protests that have erupted worldwide after the death of George Floyd in police custody a few days back. Not only that but this halt in the business has been planned to support and stand with the black community thereby strongly protesting against racial discrimination and other related issues that still prevail in many parts of the world. Many popular music labels have joined hands in this initiative.

Like so many across the country, Nicki Minaj is angry. The “Monster” rapper, 37, took to her Instagram account on June 1 with a message of disappointment and exasperation, calling out the lack of accountability by the justice system to charge the other officers — Thomas Lane, J.A. Kueng, and Tou Thoa — who watched on as Derek Chauvin pushed his knee into George Floyd‘s neck, leading to his death by asphyxiation.
