Jay-Z becomes a politician calling Capitol rebels on his new song What It Feels Like with the beloved rapper Nipsey Hussle
Rap mogul Jay-Z is summoning Capitol rebels on his new song, What It Feels Like, featuring late Los Angeles rapper Nipsey Hussle.
The 51-year-old hip-hop icon abandoned the collaboration on Friday as part of the soundtrack to the next HBO movie, Judas and the Black Messiah.
In the lyrics, Jay sings about supporters of former President Donald Trump who invaded the United States Capitol in a crowd on January 6, 2021 in an effort to overturn the legal results of the presidential election.

‘You let them invade your Capitol, put your feet up on your desk / And yet, speaking hard to me, I lost all my respect,’ Jay-Z sings in the song.
The line is a clear reference to the images of the attempted coup d’état of rioters inside the Capitol building sitting on the tables of lawmakers like Mayor Nancy Pelosi.
Former President Trump is facing his second Senate impeachment trial for his actions that led to the insurrection.
He is accused of directing and encouraging the January 6 violence that claimed several lives, including a police officer.

Suspect sniper Eric Holder was indicted in May 2019 and is currently awaiting trial on charges of murder, attempted murder and possession of a firearm by a criminal. He pleaded not guilty on all counts.
This week, Nipsey Hussle’s former partner, Lauren London, ended unfounded rumors that she is pregnant.
The 36-year-old woman used Twitter to spread the gossip that was spread by an unidentified source in a Los Angeles Sentinel article, which said she was expecting and planning a baby shower this week.
Lauren was livid, tweeting: ‘I woke up to some heterosexual bulls ** t. Rumors! Lies! In a woman trying her best to heal ?! Please stop. I’m not pregnant.’
