“We created the song to call attention to these long-standing issues,” stated Dupri. “Members of the global community are now awakened to issues affecting BIPOC. The global pandemic forced us all to reevaluate everything from our health to police brutality and systemic racism. We are now witnessing a paradigm shift that creates an opportunity for real impactful change. ‘CHANGE’ only resonates the need for topics that should have always been prioritized.” Written by Dupri, Austin, Cox and Ne-Yo.
Jermaine would like to thank everyone who donated their time and talents to this project, So So Def Recordings, Straight Up Entertainment Group, W&W Public Relations, Inc., Symphonic, who are flowing through 100% of all royalties to the Social Change Fund, and the artists who shared their talents.
