In addition to releasing a new song, "Black Parade," on Juneteenth, her website was also updated to feature an organized list curated by her go-to fashion stylist, Zerina Akers.

On Instagram, Akers presented @black.owned.everything and encouraged people to register their business.

Along with the news of the "Black Parade" song, it was also announced that proceeds from the new tune would benefit BeyGOOD's Black Business Impact Fund administered by the National Urban League, to support Black-owned small businesses in need.

Following the global movement for social justice, many people have been finding ways to stand in solitude -- and supporting Black-owned businesses is one of many ways to do so during this revolutionary time.
