Interscope Geffen A&M will also not release new music the week of June 1. See how others in the industry are speaking out as well.

The music industry is calling for a"Blackout Tuesday" in response to the death of George Floyd.

On Friday , less than a week after Floyd was suffocated by a Minneapolis police officer during an arrest, numerous music companies and artists began spreading a message on social media calling for “a day to disconnect from work and reconnect with out community" and “an urgent step of action to provoke accountability and change.”

"As gatekeepers of the culture, it's our responsibility to not only come together to celebrate the wins, but also hold each other up during loss," reads the statement, which is being circulated under the hashtag #TheShowMustBePaused.Among those reposting the message are Warner Music Group, Sony/ATV, Apple Music's Ebro Darden, BMG, former Hot 97 music programming director Karlie Hustle, British record label Dirty Hit, and independent distributor EMPIRE.

"All of my shows are cancelled. I will air replays of conversations with community activists, politicians and revolutionary music," Darden captioned his post on Instagram. Earlier this week, a video of Floyd's death surfaced showing Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on the neck of Floyd for eight minutes. Chauvin was later charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of Floyd.

In China, June 1 is children's day

I think that's a fine gesture, but they should be careful they don't cause an even greater diminnishment in their importance. People are afraid they'll die an they're out of work. They can live without new music.

They should have postponed Flopmatica

cc rhysam. This is how it's done. Arts industry can exercise joint power, unity and solidarity by denying govt tax revenue. But too many flinch away when a few idiots shout 'Stay out of politics and stick to acting/music/painting!' Miners get worshipped for less tax revenue

Aprovechando que estás aquí, pon a mis poderosos faivsos en el puesto 1 porque no pienso olvidarlo
