The Fourth of July has come and gone — but the celebrations (or lack thereof) — technically last all weekend long.
As always, EDM Twitter is weighing in this Independence Day. Some DJ/producers are stressing important social issues, some are celebrating per usual, and others are “cancelling” the holiday altogether.
With coronavirus (COVID-19) still heavily affecting the states, it seems most people are refraining from large parties and events. Most are staying at home or getting together with a close group of friends and family.
However you’re celebrating Fourth of July weekend (or not) — be safe!

EDM Twitter On Fourth of July
July 4th gonna be a day of questioning and recognizing that to celebrate America in this way is rly jus celebrating white history. America is built by our diversity, and made all the more beautiful by it. July 4 wasn’t Independence Day for all ppls. Jus something to keep in mind
