Maine-based producer/artist Genius Black brings the posse along for this protest song titled “HEAD DOWN.” The track sees him working with Drell, Shane Reis, Shameek the God, and TinyFoot who all add their perspective on police brutality, racial profile and discrimination, and more.

The production makes use of a familiar vocal sample and lush guitar riffs that blend perfectly with the punchy drum groove. The icing on the cake is the way each performer tackles the subject matter from their own personal lens.
