B.o.B blends genres once again on "Provo King".

B.o.B had been teasing his New Black mixtape over the last few weeks, but it still came as a surprise when his new project dropped out of the blue today. Bobby Ray's tape comes at a time where race in America is a hot topic following the shooting of Mike Brown by police officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson. A grand jury decided not to indict Wilson for Brown's death, and protests have erupted worldwide following the decision. 

It seems as through B.o.B is looking to join the conversation with his new project, which looks at what being black in America means today. "Provo King" is one of the early highlights.

Quotable Lyrics:
Dark skin nigga, light skin nigga
Don't mean shit when the light man hit you
I said dark skin nigga, light skin nigga
See you on the news hope your white friends miss you
'Cause a nigga came up
