We gon’ be alright!

As protests continued through the weekend, many celebrities participated in the movement in Los Angeles on Sunday (June 7).

Kendrick Lamar made a rare public appearance in his hometown for the Compton Peace Walk. Keeping a low profile in black sweats and a mask, K-Dot joined his fellow CPT natives and NBA stars DeMar DeRozan and Russell Westbrook as they marched from Gateway Towne Center to the Martin Luther King Jr. monument by City Hall.

Other music celebrities who joined the rally across the city including Trey Songz and Usher who rode their bicycles from Hollywood to Venice for the Black Rides for Black Lives rally.

YG also hit the streets of Hollywood where thousands gathered for a Black Lives Matter protest. During the rally, the Bompton rapper shot the music video for his latest single “FDT (Fuck The Police)”, which he has caught some criticism for despite the peaceful gathering.

For anyone out there talking I don’t question your advocacy and don’t think you should question mine. See you gotta understand that a lot of people out there they see me as a N*gga. They don’t see the black proud man. They see a kid from Bompton and they expect violence. They hear FTP and they think I’m gonna come and burn my city. So we showed up and did it right. We proved them wrong. The real story here is me and Black Lives Matter brought out 50,000 people today to peacefully protest and unite for change. I wanted to document that so when they hear this song and think we are reckless and violent they see a peaceful protest of all different people coming together for a common cause. That is history. That is breaking down these stereotypes on our people and our neighborhoods. All of us protesting are on the same side here..instead of questioning each other’s activism we should be directing that energy at the cops and the government and helping to create the change we want to see. Stay focused and stop that social media judgement without knowing facts and hurting a cause we all a part of. We got a real enemy and it ain’t eachother. On my momma! 🎥 @yakooza
