Battlecry finds NeKo stepping out beyond the world he knows and crossing over into a different genre with Houston based rockband, Handsomebeast. The song finds NeKo pouring his heart all over the beat on touchy subjects such as police brutality against blacks, injustice & flaws in America’s “system”, and also questioning the humanity of his fellow Americans. As heard in the hook, “Never see me shed a tear but you’ll hear my battlecry” sounds like the slogan of an oppressed man not yet ready to accept defeat. Produced by Trakksounds.
“Battlecry” is off NeKo’s ‘Tears of July’ album which drops tomorrow, Sept. 3
