Last month, veteran rap trio De La Soul announced that they were starting a Kickstarter to fund their new album. Now, they say they're "busy at work," but they took a break to share a track that won't show up on the upcoming project. This one's called "God It," and it features none other than Nas

Over a peppy beat by G_Force that sounds like something Mark Ronson would've cooked up for Amy Winehouse a decade ago, De La and Nasir display inventive flows. The group says this is an "indication of the good music to come," so maybe we should expect their album to have a similarly funky, retro vibe.

Quotable Lyrics

Case studies say hip-hop is dead huh?
I think I need to case the puddin'
Proof isn't it, God wasn't kiddin'
When sales went from platinum to wooden
