Rappin Carlos is preparing his Before You Clock In mixtape, sharing the second pre-release single from the project today. The track, which pairs him with vocalist Kaye Fox, is a powerful record meant to inspire people to come together and speak up for what's right in these trying times. Urging listeners to "Speak Up," Carlos suggests "if you ain't saying something, you the problem too." The song also contains some samples that support his point, including audio of the black woman police officer who spoke out against police brutality this summer. Presented over the sentimental keys from Jay-STZ, it becomes even more chilling. 

Quotable Lyrics:
Talkin' white and black, talkin' white and brown
That's why we gotta stick together
'Til our rights are found
If you ain't against us, better pipe up now
