Jay Z Raps About Barneys Partnership & Devilish Racial Profiling Issue In New Rick Ross Song!

We love it when artists address topical issues in their music!!
Shortly after wifey Beyoncé bombarded the music world with her Queen-hood, Jay Z decided to make his own headlines by rapping about the Barneys controversy that’s been plaguing his holiday collaboration!
Mr. Carter is featured in a new little ditty called The Devil Is A Lie from Rick Ross’ upcoming album, Mastermind.
And in it, he addresses the racial profiling dilemma that he’s had to face head on, rapping:

“See what I did to the stop and frisk?/Brooklyn on the Barneys like we own the bitch/Give the money to the hood, now we all win/Got that Barneys floor looking like a VIM.”

Need some footnotes??
Hova’s basically citing the fact that he’s now playing a role in multiple retailers’ “stop and frisk” policies, while also doing charity work by donating all his Barneys profits to the Shawn Carter Foundation.
All in a day’s work for Jay!
Ch-ch-check out the track (above)!
