Watch H.E.R. Debut Powerful New Song, ‘I Can’t Breathe’
Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorIn the wake of George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police, the past few weeks have seen a new wave of protest songs, and Grammy-winning R&B singer-songwriter H.E.R. premiered a powerful new one during her iHeartRadio Living Room concert on Wednesday.“Just by the title you know that it means something very painful and revealing,” she says, as the title comes from the final words of both Floyd and Eric Gardner, who was also killed at the bands of law enforcement officers.
