Trey Songz has released a new single.
2020 Riots: How Many Times is a rallying cry as protests continue across the US following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody. It’s the R&B star’s second new track in recent weeks after the arrival of Back Home, his duet with Summer Walker.
A portion of proceeds from 2020 Riots: How Many Times will be donated to Black Lives Matter and the Community Justice Exchange’s National Bail Fund Network. Read a statement on the track below.
“Three or four nights ago I woke up in the middle of my sleep…I couldn’t sleep. My chest was hurting. I got up and called my producer, Troy Taylor and I said "We’ve got to make music that really touches the soul, that really addresses what the world is feeling right now. Especially our people. So we came up with ‘2020 Riots: How Many Times'." With the words in this song I just wanted to speak to everyone’s hearts and acknowledge the pain and anguish everyone is going through right now. I know this ain’t usually my message and you’re not used to hearing this from me, but this is the person I’ve always been.”
