Update: Prince Calls on Baltimore Youth to Fix ‘Broken System’

Music legend performed during the city’s “Rally 4 Peace” concert on Sunday.

UPDATE:

The Purple One hit the stage in Baltimore while thousands of fans danced along. All of the attendees were dressed in gray paying tribute to Freddie Gray, whose death while in police custody sparked a chain of controversial events that led to Sunday's peace rally.

During the showcase, Prince debuted his new song titled "Baltimore" which he wrote for the city after Gray's passing.

"For those who have lost loved ones, we're here for you tonight," he said to the crowd according to the Associated Press.

Marilyn Mosby, Baltimore State's Attorney, who charged six officers in the case of Gray's murder, was welcomed on stage and waved to the roaring crowd.
