Michael Jackson's son Prince has turned to his father's lyrics to find the words to describe his feelings in a tribute to George Floyd.

The 23-year-old son of the King of Pop wrote a lengthy statement on Instagram in which he called for the end of 'systemic racism against the black community'.

Looking for the right response to the alleged murder of George by police in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Prince turned to dad Michael to provide the words that were required.

He included "'Beat me…Hate me…You can never break me.' — Michael Jackson," in the tribute to the 46-year-old father-of-one. The lyric quote comes from Michael Jackson's 'They Don't Care About Us' which hit out at racism and police brutality in the 1995 hit.
