“The Rona,” (Slang for the coronavirus) was co-written and performed by Tha Vegas Don. The song is part of a public awareness campaign to highlight the disproportionate impact of COVID19 in African American communities.
The song sounds the alarm that COVID19 infections can be a matter of life and death for African Americans. Our message encourages the use of masks, hand washing, and social distancing. We also wanted to acknowledge and honor those whom we lost and encourage those that are still in the fight against the deadly virus.
