Erykah Badu Honors George Floyd For His 48th Birthday

Singer Erykah Badu shared a special moment on her social media by paying tribute to George Floyd, along with his family for what would have been Floyd’s 48th birthday. At one of Badu’s tour stops in Minneapolis at the Minneapolis Armory, Badu invited Floyd’s family backstage. In a short clip seen on her Instagram story, she’s seen with Floyd’s sister, uncle, aunt, as well as other members of his family being visible after she panned her phone around the room.

Badu stated: “People of planet Earth, we’re about four minutes away from George Floyd’s birthday. He would’ve been 48 years old and I’m here with his family now. It seems like we have a moment of peace right now and we know that your life was not in vain. Thank you for your spirit and your sacrifice. So that we can move on the way that we should, be where we supposed to as a people.”
