Raury has taken to social media to drop a new “song of healing” entitled “Fly.” The song is billed as a response to events that have dominated headlines in recent months, such as the decision to not charge Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson in the controversial death of Michael Brown. Raury also took to Twitter to unload a stream of tweets about today’s song and its purpose, calling the song “an honest warm uplifting tune” and that it “bears the scars, fears and thoughts of an 18 year old black boy in America.” Song collaborator Malk Shakur also calls the song a “message for our sons.” You can check out “Fly” above, and let us know your thoughts about Raury’s message below.
