“Pig Feet,” the latest single from acclaimed rapper and songwriter Terrace Martin, is an “all-action record” released in the wake of demonstrations that have erupted across the U.S. condemning the devastating police brutality and [systemic] racism that have incessantly afflicted day-to-day American life. “The message of ‘Pig Feet’ that I’m trying to get across is A, awareness, B, strength, and C, fearlessness,” Martin told Complex. “The song is very fearless. I want people to instill that in their lives. It’s okay to be fearful, but to be fearless is much stronger right now. So, instead of pumping out Kumbaya, I want to pump out awareness and stay ready for whatever. That could mean whatever you feel ‘stay ready’ is. But I’m ready. I’m staying ready. And, obviously, they’re [the police] staying ready, too.”
