Common, Vince Staples and, eventually, Jay Electronica's track "Kingdom" has certainly been one of the most powerful hip-hop tracks to have been released all year. With gospel-style backing vocals and lyrics dealing with youth violence, the Nobody's Smiling highlight clearly moved Pro Era's Dessy Hinds, because he's just dropped a remix of the track. 

With artwork that seems to depict the lower half of a dead body wearing Jordans, Dessy's take on the track is no less impactful and inspired, as he spits with fervor on every bar. The Pro Era member hasn't released too much material to date, but damn, it sounds like that needs to change pronto.

Quotable Lyrics

Jurassic Park and Ford Explorer
On the tourist border
Just to let you know I told this boy to
Don't get out of order
