The film is a collaboration with poet and playwright Zia Ahmed and classical vocalist and composer Aditya Prakashis. It explores the Indian diasporic experience in contemporary Britain. “The video asks what it takes to integrate into British society and be considered British, juxtaposed on lyrics that describe the everyday racist stereotyping of South Asians, it’s an ironic look at what it means to be brown in the UK today.” The song appears on his new album More Arriving. ⭐ Reprezent Radio: The voice of young London Reprezent Radio, streaming from Brixton, curate a playlist for the evening.
