Love My London: an insight into the UK capital from second generation African and West Indian heritages

Indie-soul band, Soneni & The Soul present "Love My London". Click here to watch the video: http://bit.ly/p1SKcB The track is an honest and insightful look at London through the eyes of six spoken word artists. The experiences from their second generation African and West Indian heritages have a strong influence and steer the direction of the track. Soneni (lead singer/songwriter of Soneni & The Soul) is of Zimbabwean - and ancestrally Zulu - heritage, however was born and grew up in London. In turn she makes references to detrimental impact of colonialism, while still admitting she's "still grateful my parents chose this.. Land where opportunities are hard to miss like Mayweather's fist". Comfort (British born, of Jamaican descent) rhymes about how a "one day travel card costs more than minimum wage" and Alim Kamara (British born, of Sierra Leone descent) gets lyrical about his love for "refugees who snuck into get some". But that isn't it... Throughout the track, each artist brings their own unique flavour and approach making this a very interesting musical journey. Drawing on their hip-hop influences to create a backdrop that allows Soneni, Leroy Rose, Ms KG, Tshaka Campbell, Comfort and Alim Kamara to address the issues and cultural/economical divides that exist in the UK’s capital city.
