EP 79 | More Chune For Your Headtop by Views From The Chixx

EP 78 | Shootin' The Shit by Views From The Chixx

Hello music lovers!!! On this week's episode, we discuss the recent national and global protests demanding racial justice due to the violent killings of #GeorgeFloyd #AhmaudArbery and #BreonnaTaylor by police. The ladies also discussed the "impact" of the #BlackoutTuesday initiative created by the music industry to protest these incidents. Some streaming services created blacked out, silent, or minimal programming lasting 8 minutes and 46 seconds, the length of time it took for George Floyd's life to be taken. However some of us were not 100% impressed with their efforts and we challenged the music industry to do more!

In addition, we provide listeners with resources they can use to help fight against police brutality if protesting on the front lines is not your lane. There is something we can all do to help fight for justice! Take a listen for more information!

On this week’s episode of Views in Review, the Chixx discuss the Verzuz event featuring Erykah Badu and Jill Scott. If you are not familiar with Verzuz, it is a song by song battle created by Swizz Beatz and Timberland to entertain Instagram users during our current #stayathome quarantine. As the first women to participate in Verzuz, these talented musicians took us on a journey of their extensive catalogs while dropping a couple life gems along the way!
