The duo continued their triumphant return to form at the festival on Sunday<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n\tToward the end of Clipse<\/a>\u2019s hour-long set on the Outdoor Theatre stage at Coachella<\/a>, the duo broke into \u201cThe Birds Don\u2019t Sing,\u201d a standout track from their Grammy-nominated album Let God Sort Em Out.<\/em><\/a> <\/em>The song is about the deaths of rapper Malice<\/a>\u2019s parents; it\u2019s heartfelt, warm, and loving, with lyrics like \u201cYou told me that you loved me\/It was all in your tone\/\u201cI love my two sons\u201d was the code to your phone\/Now you\u2019re gone.\u201d There\u2019s no apologies or cynicism or irony: this is earnest, heartfelt hip-hop, here abetted and made even more emotional via family portraits. At the end of the song, Malice and his partner-in-rhyme Pusha T<\/a> looked back in silence at the final photo, paying homage to the family love and support that allowed them to pursue their dreams.<\/p>\n \n\tIt\u2019s a far cry from \u201cGrindin\u2019,\u201d the Neptunes-produced cocaine-slanging smash that put them on the map in the 2000s, and it\u2019s proof positive of their longevity: They\u2019ve matured expertly without losing their edge along the way. The story of Clipse is also the story of one of hip-hop\u2019s most unlikely reunions: Let God\u2026 <\/em>is their first album in 15 years,<\/a> and many fans never thought they\u2019d see the duo perform together again.<\/p>\n
