Each of our lives have been deeply affected by the onslaught of police uses of excessive and deadly force against unarmed African American men, women and children. After viewing the footage of the brutal murder of George Floyd, and learning of the killing of Breonna Taylor and so many others, I, along with my collaborating songwriter/producer Michael “Fish” Herring, knew I had to speak out in my own way. Given that music is our medium, we were inspired to write and record a song to honor the victims of this cruelty, to lend our voices to our chorus of worldwide protests, and to offer a message of hope for the future.
My new single is entitled “The New Frontier (Say Their Names)”. I hope you will support me by sharing this music with your circle of friends, family and associates, and by adding it to your personal playlists. One hundred percent of all proceeds are being donated to Black Lives Matter, and I will be making personal appearances to perform the song at rallies and events, along with my signature composition, “Man In The Mirror”.
