I make a genre that is undefined by all streaming platforms and has no curated playlists. The joys of pushing the culture forward I suppose. That said... i'm trying to spread the word on what my friends and I have decided to call it. If you see this please give this video a share for me! Thank you

I regularly hear people say politics and music don’t belong together but respectfully have to disagree. Especially in Electronic music and hip-hop. I understand how others struggles are not for everyone but like all music there is an audience that connects and for those who do struggle or resistance is something that we are taught or forced to hide. So hearing / seeing others who feel the same way can be felt deeply. I believe music and resistance began at the same time so most they definitely do. In fact I agree with Nina Simone that it’s an artists duty to reflect the times. This is song is my amalgamation of all that. Fuck the Rules, Fuck the system and Fuck the industry. We do this to heal and inspire and educate. Not for background music while moving from one place to the next. There’s a place for that too but in the same argument there is also a very important place for music and message.
If you relate to this drop a comment and let’s connect.
