Students at the Cleveland State University chanted parts of Kendrick Lamar's track,
"Alright", during a Black Lives Matter conference that was held at the university this weekend.
During the conference, police arrested and detained a 14-year-old boy for reportedly being intoxicated and with many conference-goers demanding his release, a transit police officer pepper-sprayed the crowd.
Witnesses to the arrest claimed police officers slammed the boy to the floor and soon after the incident, people gathered in protest and responded by chanting Kendrick Lamar's lyrics for "Alright".
The Black Lives Matter conference was the first of its kind in Cleveland, Ohio, and was attended by more than 1,000 people who went to discuss social issues, including police brutality.
