Video: Dumpstaphunk f/Chali 2na & Trombone Shorty 'Justice 2020'

Published on: November 2nd, 2020

Here's a new video from Dumpstaphunk featuring Chali 2na and Trombone Shorty for 'Justice 2020!' The song is the second single off of their forthcoming album, Where Do We Go From Here, slated for release spring 2021 via Mascot Label Group / The Funk Garage.

'Justice 2020' is a brand-new version of the group's previous single 'Justice,' which was released after the 2016 presidential election and became an unofficial anthem of the social justice movement. The video incorporates news footage from the past four years, as well as archival footage from throughout the 20th century, illustrating the long battle for social justice in the US, and to remind viewers to get out and vote.

"We wrote Justice at a time when a lot of things were going on," says the group’s founding member Ivan Neville. "Myself, Nick [Daniels] and Tony [Hall] were kids during the '60s and '70s, so we saw a lot of shit growing up, and we see the same stuff still going on: the systemic racism, the racial profiling, all the social injustice. We're at a crossroads right now in this country, and some shit's got to change."
