After Trump started his presidency, many artists decided to rise their voices to protest against his policies towards minorities. Newcomer Tye James shared a new track “War” and if you buy it, all proceeds will go directly to the Trevor Project and/or the ACLU.

As a part of the LGBTQI community, Tye is concerned about Trump‘s executive order for “Religious Freedom” (as all of us) and all of the policies against women and immigrants. About the track, he explained over an email:

As a gay man and the son of an immigrant, I am angered by the executive orders Trump is enacting … I know it’s not much but this is a song of empowerment and a call to resist.

After helping others in various capacities across the New York City music scene, Tye James has released his debut single “Lies”. He has traversed and lent his vocals to many different genres including electronic and house productions. He’s also one-half of the online electro-pop duo KNGDVD.

“Lies” is a powerful and emotional song crafted with R&B infused production work. In the song, the artist shares the challenges of growing up, especially with religious guidelines he had always known from his childhood. It’s about the intersection of faith and our will and desires.

The song simply shows the world has so much to do accepting other for who they are and not by measuring them by standards we don’t understand. It’s a song filled with soul and that inspires hope. You can follow Tye James on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Soundcloud.
