During the '60s, popular white singers such as Bob Dylan and Joan Baez lent both their names and their musical talents to the American Civil Rights Movement. In the 1950s and '60s, this was particularly true, as successful black and white musicians openly addressed the issues of the day. Next time you come across an artist, take a moment to hear whether there are other messages that point to the environment and the conservation of the earth. Music has long been used by movements seeking social change. With their celebrity and music videos, people are paying attention and learning how humans are changing the way the world is functioning in the present and what that could mean for future generations. Whether independent or backed by a major recording label, artists from different genres are putting climate change and its impact in their music. From the chorus to the hook, the song details changing temperatures, water contamination and polluted air.Ī lyric like that is hard to ignore in this booming, anthemic single as a cry for help and a call to action to stop mistreating the environment. Common brings his conscious lyricism and some talented friends including Malik Yusef, Kumasi, Aaron Fresh, Choklate and Laci Kay to bring awareness to climate change.
