Alex Tumay, engineer to Young Thug, Metro Boomin, Future, Gucci Mane, and basically everyone else who's hot in hip-hop, has been paying attention to the Colin Kaepernick "Star Spangled Banner" controversy just like everyone else. But unlike most other people, he has the musical expertise to make his commentary in audio form.

On Monday night, Tumay began tweeting some musings about the song. Very quickly, though, it turned into making plans for a trap remix of the tune. He even teased his followers with an excerpt, which you can check out above.

Keep your eye on Tumay's Twitter account to see if and when he posts a finished product.
