The song, which opens FIDEL, is easily the most aggressive of the album. The track, produced by Blueprint, driven by heavy drums and a wailing electric guitar loop, and the video, directed by Joe Castro, falls right in line, bringing together low-lit, gritty performance clips, some with Castro’s eyes covered by a tied red bandana, and scenes of protests throughout the city, as Castro unloads a barrage of hardened lyrics that stems from the song’s opening lyric, “Now they call me Castro/ My rap flow is militant.”
