Erykah Badu and Nas have teamed up together for their release "This Bitter Land." The track will be released on the soundtrack to the film The Land and finds the legend's leaning into the current state of race relations in the United States.
"This bitter land, watered with my soul," sings Badu. "The fruit it bares leaves me so cold / This bitter land does nothing for love / This bitter land brings pain."
Nas then takes over spitting, "Cop shot us up/ He get a medal retire / But it never will define me / Write a letter to the president, whoever in control of this society / Tell him, 'Stop ridin' me / Stop drivin' us into a suicidal ideology.'"
Nas also served as an executive producer on the film.
