Skrillex, Ty Dolla $ign, Ant Clemons, and Virtual Riot Call for Change in Tribute Track

The new track features a vocal sample from Nia Miranda's viral footage of the Los Angeles protests.

Frequent collaborators Skrillex and Ty Dolla $ign have teamed up with Ant Clemons and Virtual Riot for a track called "You See It," which doubles as a call to action. The downtempo single, which they teased in a clip on social media, features lyrics echoing the cries of the protestors around the country who are fighting for equality.

The end of the clip features a segment of actress and filmmaker Nia Miranda's viral video of the protests in Los Angeles. Towards the end of the video, you can hear her say, "When you see stuff like that, you're supposed to stand up and say something," a phrase that was sampled and repeated at the end of the collaborative track.
