Taking to Instagram moments ago (May 29), the GRAMMY-winning diva relayed:

“We need justice for George Floyd. We all witnessed his murder in broad daylight. We’re broken and we’re disgusted. We can not normalize this pain. I’m not only speaking to people of color — if you’re white, Black, brown or anything in between, i’m sure you feel hopeless by the racism going on in America right now. No more senseless killings of human beings,” she said in the clip.

Four years after inciting fury for his controversial comments on the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement (click here to revisit that), Lil Wayne is pissing off the group and its supporters once more after weighing in on the death of unarmed Minneapolis Black man George Floyd.

As has dominated headlines all week, Floyd died after an altercation with police when the arresting offer – Derek Chauvin – pinned his knee on the man’s neck for several minutes (as we reported here).

Taking to Instagram Live with fellow rapper Fat Joe recently, Wayne reflected on the incident by saying the hoopla that surrounds it may be misguided.

“I think when we see these situations, I think we also have to understand that we have to get very specific,” said Wayne. “We have to get so specific and what I mean by that, we have to stop viewing it from such a broad view, meaning we have to stop placing the blame on the whole force and the whole everybody of a certain race or everybody with a badge. We have to get into who that person is. If we want to place the blame on anybody, it should be ourselves for not doing more than what we think we’re doing.”

From there, his commentary veered way left.

Taylor Swift has set fire to social media after taking aim at Donald Trump.

The superstar singer is far from impressed with US president’s response to the shocking death of unarmed Black man George Floyd and the international fury it’s ignited.

As widely documented, Floyd’s death at the hands of Minnesota police officers has amplified discourse about racial inequality – which Trump weighed-in on.

Swift, however, is not entertaining anything he has to say.
