Road To The Grammys: Top 5 Songs on Clipses’ ‘Let God Sort Em Out’
The comeback of the Clipse was easily one of the top 3 most memorable Hip Hop moments in 2025. After 16 years, Pusha T and Malice blessed the world with “Let God Sort Em Out,” and it blew past the expectations fans didn’t even know they had. Produced entirely by Pharrell Williams, the 13-track project gave the world insight into their silence, while also proving that time and trends will never outdo raw talent and confidence. Now the album is 5x Grammy-nominated, including Album of the Year, Best Music Video for “So Be It,” Best Rap Performance for “Chains & Whips,” Best Rap Song for “The Birds Don’t Sing,” and Best Rap Album.
Now, let’s honor the legacy of Clipse by ranking the top 5 songs on “Let God Sort Em Out.”
Ace Trumpets
“Ace Trumpets” is easily the best song on the project, and that’s not up for debate. From the production to the chorus, even the first bar—“Yellow diamonds look like pee-pee”— the song demands your full attention and holds it for the entire 2 minutes and 34 seconds.
F.I.C.O.
The first verse takes you on a verbal journey through Pusha’s eyes before the money and the fame. He’s struggling to make ends meet, living a dangerous, unpredictable lifestyle, and trying to figure out who he can trust in business. Malice shares the same sentiments, but his verse focuses more on the ways he stays protected, while the chorus celebrates making it out.
Chains & Whips
Kendrick Lamar and Clipse are a duo that we never knew we needed, until now. “Chains & Whips” dives deep into the hearts of three men who know exactly who they are outside of the spectrum of celebrity and money. You’ve never heard a song humble you and the things you idolize like this one.

So Be It
Now, although this record is known for the jabs thrown at Travis Scott, that’s not what makes it one of the top songs on the album. It’s the way Clipse aren’t afraid to speak their truth and deliver the message with zero apologies that will forever set them apart. Plus, the black and white video matches the vibe of the song perfectly.
P.O.V.
For some time, fans could only wonder what a Clipse and Tyler, The Creator joint would sound like, and then came ‘P.O.V.’ The beat sounds like something that could be on a scary movie, and the beat switch that happens just as Malice comes in at the 3:02 mark took the track to a whole new level.
