On Valentine’s Day, hip-hop artist
Flower Child released her video for “Love Will Save the Day.” Walking in front of the boarded-up businesses in Deep Ellum with portraits from the Black Lives Matter movement prominently displayed, Flower Child raps about the need for love not the love between romantic partners, but the most important love we have: self-love, love between friends and love of your community.
Also, in case you missed it on Valentine’s Day, Dallas-based online dating company Match.com released an exclusive playlist of 50 love songs by Texas artists, curated by the
National
Independent Venue Association. The playlist is made up of songs by acts such as Leon Bridges, Charley Crockett, Erykah Badu and Pantera representing North Texas.
