Award-winning singer, writer, and speaker Royal Height "The Music Ambassador" has done it again! His new song and video, Black Lives Matter World Theme Song Anthem, is already shaping up to go viral.

The strong lyrics, music, and video are absolutely timely because this volatile topic is dominating the front pages of news and on the hearts and minds of people everywhere around the world.

For every great cause, there is the need for a great theme song anthem to unite supporters. Music has this unique ability to do just that and if a picture is worth a thousand words then this music video is priceless! We finally have a Black Lives Matter World Theme Song Anthem that says and shows the tragedies of racism against Blacks with the hope for positive change.
