NJ emcee Jameel Mason’s new song “Black Queens” is an adulation-filled record that dives into the life of all black women out here trying to make it in this cruel world. Over a solemn, sobering backdrop, Mason details the tenacity and steeled willpower of these women who have to struggle hard to get what they deserve. He acknowledges their sacrifices and reminds them that they are and never will be forgotten.

The visual for “Black Queens” is very cinematic and captures black women from various backgrounds and in their true element as well. Showing their struggles and journey in this male-driven world as they attempt to assert their presence in all facets of life. We see working-class women, creatives, athletes, and more doing their thing and pushing on regardless of the hurdles they may face.
