The series supports Inspire Change, the NFL’s social justice initiative focused on reducing barriers to opportunity in four priority areas: education, economic advancement, police and community relations, and criminal justice reform.
“I wrote ‘Fire It Up’ a few years ago as an anthem of celebration for life and love and this sentiment feels just as prevalent in this season of life. We are reminded more than ever the importance of community and family and I’m honored that this song is part of the Songs of the Season series and the social justice movement with Inspire Change.”
Songs of the Season debuted during the 2019-2020 season and included artists such as Royce Da 5’9”, Lecrae, and Blackway.
