Watch L.A. Protestors Chant Swet Shop Boys’ “T5”

In the wake of Donald Trump’s recent immigration ban, protestors have gathered at Los Angeles International Airport. Some of the people protesting began chanting a lyric from “T5” by Swet Shop Boys, the rap trio formed by Heems (formerly of Das Racist), Riz MC (aka Riz Ahmed, a rapper and star of HBO’s “The Night Of”), and producer Redinho. See clips from the protest below, in which the demonstrators chant the lyric, “Inshallah, mashallah/Hopefully no martial law.” The music video for “T5” was notably set in an airport. It featured the members of Swet Shop Boys being targeted and harassed by TSA and border control.

“T5” was included in our list “9 Actually Good Songs About Why Donald Trump Sucks” on the Pitch
