Alicia Keys has released a heartbreaking new song about a mother mourning a son who has been murdered because of their race. 'Perfect Way To Die' comes after the death of African American George Floyd - who died after a police officer knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes during his arrest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, last month - and the subsequent Black Lives Matter protests.
However, the emotional single - which will feature on the star's upcoming album, 'ALICIA' - was actually written about the deaths of Michael Brown and Sandra Bland.
The former was shot by a police offer after allegedly robbing a convenience store in August 2014, and his death led to protests in Ferguson, Missouri.
