How ICE Raids Have Impacted Texas Rapper HOODLUM’s Hometown

following the protests against ICE in Los Angeles that led to President Trump sending in the National Guard, and ICE’s ongoing sweeps at court hearings and on college campuses in San Antonio, HOODLUM dropped a snippet of new song “Burn It Down” on his Instagram account. “Say they coming for us, they can’t take us all,” he says, fired up, over a gloomy piano riff. It’s not a protest anthem, just a moment of rage and confusion that comes from watching your hometown get torn apart.
