2020 single by Stevie Wonder featuring Rapsody, Cordae, Chika, Busta Rhymes
"Can't Put It in the Hands of Fate" is a song by American singer-songwriter Stevie Wonder, featuring American rappers Rapsody, Chika, Cordae and Busta Rhymes. Released on October 13, 2020, it is a funk track with lyrics addressing institutional racism, and associated issues such as police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement.[1]
Released in a live-streamed press conference alongside "Where Is Our Love Song", this is Stevie Wonder's first single since "Faith" in 2016, and since he announced a temporary hiatus from performing in 2019 in order to undergo a kidney transplant.[2] In addition, this is the first music he has not released through Motown, marking the end to his career-long association with the record label in favour of his new label, So What the Fuss Music, distributed through Republic Records.[3] Both labels are currently part of the Universal Music Group.
Calling it "a response to systemic racism", Wonder said the song speaks in a time where "Not just Black people or people of colour but young people everywhere are going, 'This is not acceptable.' Change is right now".[1] Busta Rhymes rap references the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd and the killing of Breonna Taylor.
