13176557, Are there enough songs for a "FDT" playlist yet?

Was listening to Oddisee's Iceberg album last night and realized, maybe I'm just drawing a total blank, but what are the great songs that address the current state of the country other than YG & Nipsey's "FDT" and Oddisee's "Like Really"? I'm sure there have to be at least a few more. Don't even have to be rap, I'm just curious if you could string together an hour of music on a CD-R that sounded modern and rebellious the way you could in either Bush era yet.

I'm putting the time stamp on Trump's inauguration in part because there's a couple songs on Yeezus you could stretch for inclusion but those are mostly facetious, and from a source of intense introversion and narcissim rather than a rational look at the world around Ye (not to mention recorded and released long before Trump as Prez was even a good SNL joke).

But A few throwaway lines is Most u gonna get from the avg current rapper these days

If that

That "rap =the voice of the people" tenant is almost dead. Clown rappers don't even rap about being broke no more
