Mick Jagger is joined by Skepta on "England Lost."

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger gets political with rapper Skepta on his new track "England Lost." It's one of two songs he's released today (July 27th), the other one being "Gotta Get A Grip." The rock legend tackles British "anxiety" and potential loss of identity after being the victim of several well-publicized terror attacks earlier this year, leaving questions as to how the country plans on dealing with threats from other countries and outside forces in general.

Skepta, on his verse, echoes the same message, talking about the "same dirty stains on your dirty laundry" and how the country hasn't changed its ways in a time that progress should be a priority. It's sure to be a polarizing piece of work.

Quotable Lyrics

I think I'm losing my imagination
I'm tired of talking about immigration
You can't get in and you can't get out
I guess that's really what it's all about.
