Following the murder of George Floyd and in the midst of all the protests, Eric Bellinger releases his new song “Enough.”

Eric Bellinger has a beautiful voice and he’s using it to try and create change. The 34-year-old singer has dealt with a lifetime of systemic racism and, as the protests continue across the country, he’s speaking for everybody when he says he’s had enough of being treated unfairly because of his skin.

“First they drain you mentally, threaten your identity, then they treat you like the enemy, god damn,” croons Bellinger. The cover artwork shows scenes of police brutality, including a sign that says “I can’t breathe” for George Floyd, Eric Garner, and others.

Sometimes, speaking about the issue isn’t enough and you’ve got to come through with some music to shape the public’s opinion. Eric Bellinger is letting it be known that he will no longer stand silent in the face of racism and we’re right there with him.

“I’m not sure what it’s gonna take and when it’s gonna stop but I had to take a moment to speak out and express myself the only way I know how,” wrote the artist on social media. “By writing a song.”
