Listen to The Weeknd, SZA, and Travis Scott's 'Game of Thrones' Song

The Weeknd, Travis Scott, and SZA have released their collaboration "Power is Power" from the forthcoming Game of Thrones-inspired album, For the Throne. The trio has united for a song that uses power metaphors from the HBO series to talk about love and sex. What else did you expect?

The Weeknd kicks off the chorus singing, "a knife in my heart couldn't slow me down, because power is power," while SZA chimes in with her own reflections on trust. Scott makes it more sexual, stating eloquently, that someone should sit on his face. Yikes!

For the Throne drops April 26, and it features songs from artists like A$AP Rocky, Joey Bada$$, the late Lil Peep, and Ty Dolla $ign, among others. Recently the Game of Thrones creators released a Spotify playlist that includes themes from the final season and a clue as to how the series will end.

But this accusation has a broader history in the United States, having been used against several religious minorities—including Muslims like Omar. Indeed, many battles over religious freedom have revolved around dual-loyalty claims. [ Read: Ilhan Omar just made it harder to have a nuanced debate about Israel ] In the 19th century, many attacks on Catholics stressed that these immigrants were pawns of a foreign power. In the 1830s, Samuel Morse—then a prominent painter and later the inventor of the telegraph—urged Americans to build “walls” and “gates” to keep out Catholic immigrants, who would always be loyal to Rome.
