The Game, Vic Mensa & More Hip-Hop Voices Slam ICE Raids—Call For Black-Brown Solidarity

The Game called for unity and resistance on Monday (June 9) as he stood with protesters in Los Angeles rallying against ICE raids and the arrest of labor leader David Huerta, urging Black and Latino communities to stand together.

“Ever since I could remember… it’s been black & brown in this city,” he wrote on Instagram, alongside black-and-white photos from the protests. “From the early days of my childhood til now, we’ve been side by side through it all. All of us. All the time. Not always seeing eye to eye but we’ve shared Los Angeles for a very long time.”

The Game continued, “I stand with y’all like I know you’d stand with us. ‘We might fight against each other… but I promise you this.. we’ll burn this b!%?! Down get us p##### !!!!!’ To live & die in L.A.”

Vic Mensa Says Black People Should Care About ICE

Vic Mensa also weighed in, warning that the same systems targeting immigrants could easily be turned against Black Americans.

“The same oppressor that exploits the African abuses the Latino,” he said. “And please believe if they could figure out how to deport n#####…they been trying since the Emancipation Proclamation.”

Mensa connected the dots between ICE detention centers, U.S. prison labor and international human rights abuses.

“Don’t be fooled into believing this struggle is not ours,” he added.

He captioned his video message, “Why should black people care about ICE? Solidarity is strength,” adding “Common enemy common goal.”

Doechii used her moment at the 2025 BET Awards to call out Donald Trump and denounce the ICE crackdown and military presence in Los Angeles. She condemned Trump while accepting her award for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist on Monday (June 9).

Meanwhile, Kehlani showed support for Doechii’s speech, reposting it to her Instagram Stories with the message: “EXACTLY DOECHII EXACTLY.”

Tyler, The Creator kept it blunt in his own post earlier this week, writing simply: “F### ICE.”

The protests erupted across Los Angeles following a wave of ICE raids and Huerta’s arrest, drawing widespread criticism from activists, artists and community leaders alike.
