Snoop Dogg took to Instagram to preview a new song that includes a sample of BADBADNOTGOOD's "Lavender" featuring their fellow Canadian beatsmith, Kaytranada. 

The track sounds like it addresses the recent police killings of black men in the country with lyrics like, "Trying to keep from dying in these muthafuckin' streets/Fuck the police." Later in the song, he raps, "Resident evil/It's all on camera and they still don't believe him."

The whole thing might have resulted out of Snoop posting a video of him listening to The Internet's Kaytranada and BADBADNOTGOOD-produced track "Girl" earlier this year. "Call me n****. That shit banging. I need some of that. It's your uncle, boy," Snoop can be heard saying into the camera as he turns up to the song.
