YG & Nipsey Hu$$le have a released music video for their succinctly-titled track ‘Fuck Donald Trump’.

The track opens with a news report quote from 19-year-old Valdosta State University student Tahjila Davis, who was one of several black students kicked out of a Donald Trump rally at their own school.

After a pretty to-the-point chorus, YG then arrives, saying: 'I like white folks, but I don't like you / All the niggas in the hood wanna fight you', and later: ‘Don't let Donald Trump win, that nigga cancer / He too rich, he ain't got the answers’.

The song closes with a joint verse from the rappers addressing Trump’s promise to “will build a great, great wall on our southern border” and have Mexico pay for it, with Nipsey Hu$$le spitting: 'It wouldn't be the USA without Mexicans / And if it's time to team up, shit, let's begin / Black love, brown pride in the sets again'.

The pair aren’t the only rappers weighing into the presidential race lately, with Bernie Sanders introducing Run the Jewels set at Coachella last week.
