Jussie Smollett has been out of jail for three weeks and has now released a new song called "Thank You God." The former "Empire" star shared the single on his Instagram account, which according to his bio is "currently run by" the Smollett family.
In the caption of the post, it's noted that "100% of the profits will be donated" to Rainbow Push Coalition, the Illinois Innocence Project and Secure the Bag Safety.
The one-minute preview on social media starts with a clip that reads: "CHANNELING THESE THOUGHTS THE BEST WAY I KNOW HOW. LOVE YOU… - JUSSIE." Smollett then sings: "It’s like they’re hell-bent on not solving the crime / Taking out the elements of race and trans and homophobia that’s straight taking lives / But turn around and act like I’m the one that killed the strides." Elsewhere on the track, he says, "Some people searching for fame / Some people chasing that clout / Just remember this ...
this ain’t that situation / You think I’m stupid enough to kill my reputation." "Just simply to look like a victim / Like it's something fun / Y'all better look at someone else / You got the wrong one."
