RSMS Hour 4 | Rappers speak out to stop the execution of James Broadnax
Published 2 weeks, 5 days ago
Description
The episode closes with a serious turn as the team covers the growing movement of rappers petitioning the Supreme Court to halt the April 30 execution of James Broadnax, arguing that prosecutors unconstitutionally used his rap lyrics as evidence to label him a future danger; artists including Killer Mike, Young Thug, and Travis Scott insist that rap lyrics are protected artistic expression and that Broadnax’s sentencing was tainted by racial bias.
