The weekend just got more interesting thanks to this brand new rap anthem that supports the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
Harkening back to the protest songs of Public Enemy and Rage Against The Machine, the people of “Release The Snyder Cut” have released a brand new rap anthem that continues to petition for Zack Snyder’s cut of Justice League. An ongoing movement that began after the release of the critically and commercially unsuccessful Justice League, “Release The Snyder Cut” is attempting to get Warner Bros. to release the Zack Snyder cut of the movie. Zack Snyder fans have flown banners across Comic-Con and bought of advertisements, but this is perhaps the most interesting thing they’ve done.
Dubbed as the official anthem for the Zack Snyder Cut of Justice League, the rap anthem is nearly 6 minutes long. Set to a remixed beat of Hans Zimmer’s Man of Steel/Batman v Superman score, the rapper discusses how Zack Snyder was disrespected by Warner Brothers and how his shots are evocative of Renaissance, as well as why Marvel will never hold a candle to DC, among other topics.
Go ahead and check it out for yourself — it’ll make your weekend.
The rap anthem obviously asks fans to rally behind the long-rumored Zack Snyder Cut, asking them to join the frontlines at comic conventions and fan events. Justice League was clearly not the product Zack Snyder had strived to create since he created the DC Extended Universe with Man of Steel, but in the end, it’s what everyone received thanks to alterations by Warner Bros. and Joss Whedon, who took over directing duties after Snyder had to step away from the project due to a family tragedy.

Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
