The Rolling Stones announced Tuesday the rock band will no longer perform the hit song Brown Sugar amid accusations the 50-year-old classic is linked to the subjugation of slaves.
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards made the announcement while on tour in the U.S. as part of a 13-date schedule.
The pair said they have not put Brown Sugar — one of the UK band’s most recognizable songs — on their playlist since kicking off in St Louis on September 26.
