#Kehlani, Kid Cudi, and Kali Uchis among thousands of artists calling for cease-fire in Gaza

Kehlani, Kid Cudi, Kali Uchis, and Zack de la Rocha and Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine are among thousands of artists that have signed a letter from the Musicians for Palestine collective demanding a cease-fire in Gaza. The letter was signed and published prior to the news on Wednesday of a four-day cease-fire as part of a deal that will see 50 Israeli women and children released in exchange for 150 jailed Palestinians.

Also on the list of names to have signed the Musicians for Palestine letter are: Pulp, Bikini Kill,, Lucy Dacus, Brian Eno, Sleater-Kinney, Arooj Aftab, Blonde Redhead, Denzel Curry, Fontaines D.C., Pink Siifu, Mica Levi, L’Rain, Laurel Halo, Deerhoof, Beth Ditto, the Knife’s Olof Dreijer, Mykki Blanco, the Blessed Madonna, Youth Lagoon, Fucked Up, Mogwai, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Kode9, Vijay Iyer, a Place to Bury Strangers, Nicolàs Jaar, Helado Negro, Raffi, KeiyaA, Mandy, Indiana, and more. The full list of signatories can be seen here.

“Today, we demand an immediate cease-fire and humanitarian aid in Gaza, and an end to the siege,” the letter reads. “The day after, our vision of a just and peaceful future for all must be our most urgent task. We urge everyone who shares that vision to join us.”

The open letter follows a similar plea for a cease-fire from a group including Dua Lipa, Dev Hynes, and Caroline Polachek which was published last month.

Rapper Redveil, meanwhile, called for a cease-fire during his performance at Tyler, the Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival. He ended his set with the names of children killed in Gaza displayed on a screen at the back of the stage.
