Travis Scott Amongst Many Celebrities to Speak Up Following George Floyd’s Death

Since the unfortunate passing of George Floyd, many celebrities have used their social media platforms to express their condolences for the family of George Floyd and post a call to action following the recent events that took place following his unfortunate death.

Travis Scott has added to the list of celebrities to speak up regarding the death of George Floyd. The Texas rapper uploaded this statement to his Instagram.

“As I pace around thinking, trying to find something to ease the pain… There are almost no words that I can think of to properly express, or I can use to suppress, this enraged feeling of us continuously losing our brothers and sisters to brutality at the hands of officers, or anyone with misguided intentions for our well-being,” Scott began.

“The rage that we are feeling is from direct personal experience and the constant pain of wanting our voices to be heard. To be seen as equal and human, too. We have to change and reform police policy in our U.S. cities, and there needs to be accountability immediately! Especially when officers abuse power to the point where it callously takes a life.

“My heart goes out to George Floyd’s family and everyone who’s suffered loss based on this type of senseless injustice and brutality. Me and the team are gonna do everything possible to make sure these issues are addressed on a long-term basis. Thank u Bun for picking me up this morning and helping me figure out ways I can really help move this forward. Love. See you all soon!” he closed.

Along with the statement, the “Sicko Mode” rapper attached a picture of black individuals in what appears to be a barber shop. The caption of the heartfelt post reads the Earth, black heart, and speaking head emojis.

RIP to George Floyd.
