Earlier this summer, the rapper Busdriver got a lot of people excited with his single “Ego Death,” on which he stood tall alongside guests like Danny Brown and Aesop Rock. Now Busdriver has released a new song, titled “Cop,” in response to the ongoing tragedy in Ferguson. No word whether this will appear on his upcoming album, Perfect Hair. Listen to it below and read a brief note Busdriver released with the song.

this song deals with policing. I feel like it was important to share.

Perfect Hair is out 9/9 on Big Dada.
