Gucci Mane and Pusha T have hopped on Common's powerful "Black America Again" for a remix.

Common shared the remix with his fans writing, "My hip hop comrades @PUSHA_T and @gucci1017 lend their talents and perspective to #blackamericagain."

The remix kicks off immediately with a verse from Gucci who spits, "Come look into the eyes of a man named Gucci/Got me peeping out the blinds like Malcom with the Uzi." Gucci then dips into some bars about having a revelation in prison about his ability to be in inspiration while also sharing some truth about how it is "hard to be a black man in a white man country." It's a line that holds significant meaning given last week's stunning election results.

"Black America Again" is the title track of Common's new album, which is filled with socio-political commentary on the current status of our country. Common also confirmed the project was purposefully released a few days ahead of the national election. "As the project started to develop and became what it became, it was like, 'Man, this is an election year. This music needs to be out and heard at that time.' And these times are creating music like this."

The mere prospect of hearing Gucci, Pusha, and Common all involved on one song had Twitter immediately freaking out. Listen to the remix below.
