Watch: Egyptian Hip Hop Unveil ‘Tobago’ Video

Manchester-based quartet Egyptian Hip Hop finally released their debut album, ‘Good Don’t Sleep’, back in October of last year.

(You can read our review here, and, of course, we also spoke to the band about the record before it came out)

Now, they’re set to release another single from it this Spring. The foursome have re-recorded the track ‘Tobago’, with Wild Beasts producer Richard Formby. The song - along with ‘live favourite’ ‘The White Falls’ - will be released as a single on 1st April.

What’s more, a video for ‘Tobago’ has been shared online, with the following message:

‘This is the video for our song Tobago, named after the country of origin of Neville Lawrence AKA SUPERSTAR & STAR, who influenced this song and video more than anything or anyone. From the first incarnation, as a jam, to the final video, we had Neville in mind and, for this, we are thankful to him. He has a light and a vitality often lacking in this grey world. Neville is a superstar and we follow in his footsteps. He will always be pure. For our good friend Neville Lawrence aka Superstar and Star. God bless you. x’
