Sons of Kemet release ‘To Never Forget The Source’
It’s the second single lifted from their highly-anticipated new album.
With their new album ‘Black To The Future’ arriving on 14th May, Sons of Kemet are sharing their latest single ‘To Never Forget The Source’.
The centre-point of the forthcoming record, Shabaka Hutchings says the track is the “central (ideological) axis-point.”
“The Source refers to the principles which govern traditional African cosmologies/ontological outlooks and symbolizes the inner journey,” he continues. “It is the unifying factor that gives meaning both to looking backwards (in nuancing and continually adding depth of contextualization and meaning to the past) and visioning forward (in speculating and striving to realize a better future for humanity).”
