Thursday Jul 13th 2017
Boiler Room just shared a stunning and poignant new spoken word/rap/poetry-video from Moor Mother, aka Philly-based noise artist, activist and wordsmith Camae Ayewa. Watch below - filmed by Sonny Jake.
"Titled 'South London' and captured in the area amongst high-rise tower blocks, the video sees Ayewa touch on a number of subjects surrounding forms of injustice, such as ongoing wars, corporate control and racism, frequently staring down the camera as she shares her lyrics." - The Quietus
Moor Mother is curated by Jerusalem In My Heart for Le Guess Who? 2017, together with a.o. Linda Sharrock, Matana Roberts, Alanis Obomsawin, Nadah El Shazly, Klein, Abdel Karim Shaar, and Dedekind Cut.
