Gary Clark Jr. has created a lot of conversation with 'This Land,' the provocative first song off his latest album that shares the same name.

Ryan Pearson, The Associated PressBURBANK, Calif. -- Gary Clark Jr. has created a lot of conversation with "This Land," the provocative first song off his latest album that shares the same name.

"I would be driving home and I would see a lot more Trump signs than Clinton. Things in the news, there started to be conversation about -- something shifted. I don't know all of it. I'm not going to try and explain all of it, but you could see it in the news and what the narrative was. Having two young ones, it kind of made me concerned about what we were getting into," said the 35-year-old musician.

"I think it was something I was just sitting on for a while. I was taught to just be quiet and let things pass. And I was just tired of it. It's like, I'm here, we are here. Strong, confident, we're not going anywhere," he added. "So you're not going to tell me that I'm not worth it. You're not going to tell anyone else that they're not worth it. Because we all are.
