Taboo Of Black Eyed Peas, Native American Artists' Standing Rock Music Video Nominated For Mtv Video Music Award
New York, NY (Top40 Charts / Hard Rock Records) Taboo, who has Shoshone Tribe heritage, and other Native American artists including those from the Seminole Tribe of Florida, banded together to create the song, which is meant to serve as both a tool to promote awareness, as well as an anthem for the indigenous people across the country who have united in the effort against the DAPL. The video features real footage from the water protectors on the front lines at Standing Rock, and looks to rally people from across the country and draw together the Native communities of North America in an unprecedented way.

"The purpose of this video was to shine the light on this very important cause - pairing that with recognition from MTV is incredible," said Spencer Battiest, Hard Rock Records alumnus, member of the Seminole Tribe of Florida and one of the "Magnificent Seven." "This song is the only one nominated without a record label, which I think is very powerful and special - and we're proud to be doing our part to raise awareness for native issues."

The addition of the "Best Fight Against the System" category was added to the 2017 MTV VMAs to continue reflecting the audience's passion and activism around social justice issues such as environmental justice, immigration, LGBTQ equality and racial justice. Fans can cast their vote now through August 27th at 3 p.m. as a means of supporting the Native American artists and spreading awareness of #NoDAPL and other indigenous resistance messages. The 2017 MTV Video Music Awards will air live from The Forum in Inglewood, Calif. on Sunday, August 27 at 8 p.m. ET.
