Today we've got a slew of rappers, both underground and mainstream, teaming up for an important message on "Don't Shoot." The record comes in the wake of Mike Brown's tragic death, who was shot six times by police officer Darren Wilson although he was unarmed. Even if you don't watch the news, there's no way you could avoid this in the media as Ferguson, MO has become a focal point.
"Don't Shoot" rounds up features from Game, Rick Ross, 2 Chainz, Diddy, Fabolous, Wale, DJ Khaled, Swizz Beatz, Yo Gotti, Curren$y, Problem, King Pharaoh and TGT.
Game said of compiling the record, "I managed to get everyone on fairly easy, simply because we have hearts. We care & are inclined to take a positive approach to resolving an issue that has existed since the beginning of mankind & that's RACISM & hatred towards one another as human beings."
Purchase the song on iTunes if you'd like, all the proceeds will be going to the Justice for Mike Brown charity.
Quotable Lyrics:
I'm sure the general population's trying to be more active
But when the light finally catches you, you ice challenge
Ok, and I support the ALS, just like the rest of them
But you have yet to pay your debt, so you just flexin' it
- Wale Folarin
