The Timbaland-produced “Tell The Children” is one more way musicians have spoken out on the events in Ferguson .
This is Tink, the prodigiously talented rapper and singer who became Timbaland's new protégé this year.
The song opens with a monologue and faint repetitions of "don't shoot", "tell the children to watch out", and "keep running". It'll hit a raw nerve.
You can hear eerie echoes of Lauryn Hill's “Doo Wop (That Thing)” in the Timbaland-tapped composition. Faint gunshot soundbytes are added throughout.
But the words speak for themselves: “He was more afraid of him when he the one with the piece?” ... "Badge is a pass to do whatever / So now we livin’ in fear of the people here to protect us."
