Following a disappointing week in American politics, where Donald Trump was elected the next president, Common drops a politically-charged remix to “Black America Again” featuring Gucci Mane, Pusha T, and BJ the Chicago Kid.
The title song to Common’s recent album ‘Black America Again’ includes a new instrumental, politically and socially-driven versus from Gucci and Pusha T, and replaces Stevie Wonder’s hook with one from BJ the Chicago Kid. Common also joins in with a new set of bars. Listen below.
QUOTABARZ
“We wow the world with black magnificence / A symphony for the divine and we the instruments / Black innocence.” – COMMON
“Come look into the eyes of a man named Gucci / Got me peeping out the blinds like Malcolm with the uzi / The government, the church, and the world is so polluted / They callin’ me a criminal and I’m a revolution.” – GUCCI MANE
“I confess / I’ve been part of the problem / As of lately, I’m trying to solve ’em / I sold dope and I still talk the jargon / Just like Malcolm ‘fore the X was on him.” – PUSHA T
