Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine‘s The Defiant Ones documentary began airing on HBO last night. The four-part documentary will continue showing through Wednesday, but part one already bore a solid nugget: a snippet of a new Dr. Dre song.

The song, “Gunfiyah,” is loud, full of horns and has Dre quick-spitting about his reign over the rap game. There’s a certain still-prominent Atlanta rapper who sounds like he had his pen game all in this verse.

It’s his first release since 2015’s Compton album, and while there’s no indication that “Gunfiyah” is the jump start of any sort of Dre project, it’s nice to see he’s comfortable releasing new work to the public.

Part two of The Defiant Ones airs at 9 p.m. on HBO tonight, with parts three and four airing at the same time on Tuesday and Wednesday. Listen to “Gunfiyah” below.
