NEW YORK (AP) — Jay-Z and Pharrell Williams have teamed up to release a new song about Black ambition titled “Entrepreneur.”

A preview of “Entrepreneur” was made available Thursday. “Black Twitter, what’s that? When Jack gets paid, do you?” raps Jay-Z, referring to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. “For every one Gucci, support two FUBU’s.”

On the track, Williams sings: “In this position with no choice/The system imprison young Black boys/Distract with white noise.”

Williams told TIME the song is “about how tough it is to be an entrepreneur in our country to begin with.”

“Especially as someone of color, there’s a lot of systemic disadvantages and purposeful blockages,” he continued. “How can you get a fire started, or even the hope of an ember to start a fire, when you’re starting at disadvantages with regards to health care, education, and representation?”
