Hip hop heads rejoiced when KXNG Crooked and Statik Selektah connected to form the duo Statik KXNG. As the two prepare to release their eponymous-titled project on February 12th, 2016 they revealed the first taste from it, “Dead Or In Jail,” they have now dropped a lyrics visual for their Jessica Quintero-gusted single.

Eschewing the typical rap clichés, “Dead Or In Jail” instead utilizes stark images and real-life statistics set against the jazzy backdrop of Statik Selektah and the vivid raps of KXNG Crooked. It’s a bleak reminder of what KRS-One reiterated to CNN; that the myriad of societal ails and injustices will sadly plague this country with seemingly no end in sight.
