In April 2021, American country music singer/songwriter, [[Morgan Wallen]] donated $300,000 to the Black Music Action Coalition in the names of 20 people who had counseled him following some "dumb stuff". Those individuals were given the option to funnel their respective $15,000 donations to a charity of their choice, or keep the money within the BMAC.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Ruggieri|first=Melissa|title=The real story of Morgan Wallen's $500K pledge to Black groups, and how the money "*****" distributed|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/ente...788855001/|access-date=2021-11-23|website=USA Today|language=en-US}}</ref>
In 2021, BMAC and Hip hop music festivals, [[Rolling Loud]] partnered Social Justice Initiatives. In 2023, the international hip hop music festival [[Rolling Loud]] hosted a panel discussion in support of their Restoring Artistic Protections (RAP) Act initiative on the first day of [[Rolling Loud Miami]]. The panel included Stiggers for BMAC, Rolling Loud co-Founder Tariq Cherif, Congressmans [[Hank Johnson]] and [[Jamaal Bowman]]. The act was introduced as a way to protect artists' creative expression, which has been used against them as evidence in court. <ref>https://www.miamiherald.com/entertainment/music-news-reviews/article277551173.html</ref><ref>https://www.complex.com/music/a/jad...-hosts-rap-act-rally-in-support-of-young-thug</ref><ref>https://www.xxlmag.com/rolling-loud-black-music-action-coalition-psa-rap-lyrics-evidence/</ref>
Regarding Tennessee's [[ELVIS Act]], Stiggers said: “Black Music Action Coalition supports this first-of-its-kind legislation, as the misuse of AI could devastate Black music creators who already face an uphill battle. Our priority is to amplify the larger justice movement in the music industry, and we commend Tennessee for setting the standard in AI protection legislation. We hope to see other states follow in Tennessee’s lead in order to protect the creative community.”<ref name=musicbusiness>{{cite web |url=https://www.musicbusinessworldwide....sts-voice-and-likeness-from-the-misuse-of-ai/ |title=Elvis Act Signed Into Law in Tennessee to Protect Artists' Voice and Likeness from the Misuse of AI |author=Murray Stassen |year=2024 |work=Music Business Worldwide |access-date=March 26, 2024}}</ref>
