“War on drugs, legality, they got us on fallacies,” she raps, over a haunting choral loop. “Resorted in casualties, I was supposed to resort in the Maldives, now we in the rallies.” Calling back to Jay-Z’s “99 Problems” and singling out the “12,” Rapsody saves her second verse to tackle the topics of police brutality and accountability — or lack thereof. “Cops kill lawfully, no remorse,” she declares. “I don’t wanna hear arguments no more about black on black, when white on white they kill they own too / And cops the only ones who ain’t accountable.”

Check out the latest incendiary from Rapsody, a departure from what she brought to the table on last year’s excellent Eve. 

QUOTABLE LYRICS

Cops kill lawfully, no remorse
I don’t wanna hear arguments no more about black on black
When white on white
They kill they own too
And cops the only ones who ain’t accountable
