What responsibility do artists have to amplify social movements in times like these? Building off last week's debate about Noname and J Cole, Dope Knife and Linqua Franqa address a few listener perspectives on this question before examining the roles Hip Hop artists and Hip Hop adjacent figures are playing in the George Floyd Uprising, from J Cole's physical solidarity in the streets of Fayetteville and YG's leadership in a recent LA march to Kanye's generous monetary contributions to the NBA's "More than a Vote" campaign. As well, they explore songs penned about or released for the cause from Conway the Machine and Lil Baby to CupcaKKe and Run the Jewels 4.
