In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I (direct quote) was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests. These references are not only meritless, but dangerous. There is not a single lyric in the song that references race or points to it- and there isn’t a single video clip that isn’t real news footage -and while I can try and respect others to have their own interpretation of a song with music- this one goes too far.
As so many pointed out, I was present at Route 91-where so many lost their lives- and our community recently suffered another heartbreaking tragedy. NO ONE, including me, wants to continue to see senseless headlines or families ripped apart.
Try That In A Small Town, for me, refers to the feeling of a community that I had growing up, where we took care of our neighbors, regardless of differences of background or belief. Because they were our neighbors, and that was above any differences. My political views have never been something I’ve hidden from, and I know that a lot of us in this Country don’t agree on how we get back to a sense of normalcy where we go at least a day without a headline that keeps us up at night. But the desire for it to- that’s what this song is about.
@S_dF I’ve been truant on Twitter the last 5 years and have pivoted towards PLNs on discord but seem to be gravitating back towards it. It’s definitely feeling old school like when MySpace-Friendster were around.
Can I stop it? Pocket profit every time I push a pin
But I do not push a pin, fuck a pin and the pen
That imprisoned all my kin and my partners and my friends
Fuck the politicians that sponsor the prisons that they in ☦️ #MICHAEL
“… they had shoplifted a cake. So let me be clear, nothing has been proven, but it was alleged... and that's how they came in hot like that, as though they were brandishing firearms or attacking or assaulting members of the community when it was simply a cake," she said.

Ohioans will almost certainly vote in November on a constitutional amendment to protect abortion access, after advocates today filed nearly twice the number of required signatures to get it on the ballot.
As of now, it'll be the biggest abortion vote of the year in the U.S.
