Taking a break from Dirty Computer to listen to this again:


Context:

Spoiler:

It's the original version of the song Burn from the Broadway Musical, Hamilton.

This is the song in which Eliza Hamilton reacts to the publication of The Reynold's Pamphlet, which explicitly details a blackmail scheme against Alexander Hamilton...that he wrote and published himself, because the dude had absolutely no chill.

In some ways I prefer this to the version they went with in the show, because she clearly shows her anger. However, because we have absolutely no idea what she felt about the matter, it's ultimately even more speculation than the one they went with...which is far more subdued.
