Prince spreads the message of love and peace with his new song "Baltimore" in the wake of protests following the death of Freddie Gray. "Does anybody hear us pray / 4 Michael Brown or Freddie Gray? / Peace is more than the absence of war," he sings before chanting, "If there ain't no justice, then there ain't no peace."
Featuring Eryn Allen Kane, the new song was recorded earlier this month at Prince's Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota. It "addresses the unrest in Baltimore and the socio/political issues around the country in the wake of a slew of killings of young black men."
Prince is scheduled to perform the song live for the first time at a "Rally 4 Peace" concert at Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore this Sunday, May 10. He will be joined by his band 3RDEYEGIRL. A portion of the "Rally 4 Peace" proceeds will be donated to Baltimore youth organizations.
