Artists protest against Donald Trump

Earlier this week, Donald Trump, property magnate and reality TV star, was elected as president of the USA. The election result has provoked protests across America, most of which have been peaceful.

Many musicians and artists have joined anti-Trump marches to protests against an openly racist and misogynistic individual, who has never held public office, being elected as the most powerful politician in the world.

Chief amongst those artists has been Lady Gaga, who has been using social media to remind people that “Love Trumps Hate”.

And I take that same vow. https://t.co/u8CTN5giLk

Leonard Cohen, the legendary and hugely influential singer, songwriter and poet, has died at the age of 82.

Cohen’s career spanned nearly 50 years. The Canadian is regarded as one of the all-time great songwriters. His death was announced via an official statement on his Facebook page.

"It is with profound sorrow we report that legendary poet, songwriter and artist, Leonard Cohen has passed away," the statement read. "We have lost one of music's most revered and prolific visionaries. A memorial will take place in Los Angeles at a later date. The family requests privacy during their time of grief."
