V Bozeman Releases Powerful New Song "Dear Officer" in Support of #BlackLivesMatter

Singing sensation V Bozeman is the latest celebrity to speak out on behalf of the national #BlackLivesMatter movement in light of recent fatal police shootings involving black citizens, with a new song titled “Dear Officer.” The soul singer teams up with rap artist Young Lyfe and producer Rodney Jones, Jr. (Lil Rod) to unveil a heartfelt “letter” to law enforcement, with lyrics such as “Dear officer, will you let our husbands walk away, will you let our brothers live today, can our sons go outside to play. Dear officer, without getting shot up, even though they got their hands up…”

Marvin Bing, Creative Director at Art For Amnesty, sheds light on the significance of V Bozeman’s emotionally charged new song, “Music has long played a critical role in inspiring, mobilizing, and giving voice to the movement for black lives. The music and artists are playing a strong and vital role in the struggle for freedom. V continues to use her platform to continue that legacy. ‘Dear Officer’ gives the people a renewed courage and a sense of unity. I think it will inspire to keep alive a faith, a radiant hope, in this moment, particularly in our hopeless moment as a people,” Marvin explains.

V Bozeman, who recently performed at this year’s Essence Festival, takes pride in being a bold black woman and Los Angeles native, and is no stranger to taking to her social media to speak out on current race relations in America.
