The Weeknd recently donated $250,000 to the Black Lives Matter, according to reports on The FADER.
This news comes just a few days after it was revealed that the Canadian singer donated $50,000 towards founding a program for Ethiopic Studies at the University of Toronto.
The Weeknd joins a long list of Hip Hop personalities who have expressed their support of the Black Lives Matter movement in recent times. Lil Durk recently got a new tattoo in honor of the movement, while earlier this year, Nipsey Hussle released a series of t-shirts to honor the nationwide organization.
Conversely, Kevin Gates made it clear that he is not a fan of the Black Lives Matter movement in a video published earlier last month.
Or you could help starving or sick kids… But nah, let’s by more tee shirts for people who were cool with people killing innocent people.

So did he send this money to Africa to fight Ebola, AIDS and starvation? Or is this meant to help the guy who had 50+ moving violations that dressed like a gangbanger and had a CCW, or the felon that was illegally carrying a concealed weapon engaged in an illegal commerce that was resisting arrest?
