Jay Z has shared brand new track Spiritual in response to the brutal police killings in the US over the past few days.

Motivated initially back in 2014, prior to the death of 18 year-old Mike Brown, Jay Z shared his thoughts on the traumatic time currently being faced by the black community in an open letter on TIDAL:

“I made this song a while ago, I never got to finish it. Punch (TDE) told me I should drop it when Mike Brown died, sadly I told him, “this issue will always be relevant.” I’m hurt that I knew his death wouldn’t be the last…… I’m saddened and disappointed in THIS America – we should be further along. WE ARE NOT. I trust God and know everything that happens is for our greatest good, but man…. it’s tough right now. Blessings to all the families that have lost loved ones to police brutality.

– j”
