Musician Killer Mike, one half of the hip-hop duo Run the Jewels, early Saturday delivered an impassioned plea for people in his home city of Atlanta to stop protesting the death of George Floyd with violence.
Killer Mike revealed he’s “mad as hell” at the death of Floyd in Minneapolis on Monday.
Floyd, a Black man, died after a white police officer knelt on his neck.
“That’s why children are burning things to the ground,” added the musician, who was vocal during and after the protests in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014 following the death of Michael Brown.
