Awkword gets down to the grit on his new politically charged single “Hands” which was released the same day as the US election. Awkword paints a myriad of scenarios including his own troubled past in this heartfelt, somewhat thought provoking song.

“Stop it right there and stretch your hands to the sky /
‘Never trust police’ is what I’ve known since I was five /
And every cop I’ve met always wants to know why /
For all the times I saw my street swept up out in Bed Stuy”
