video premiere: lakuta’s new track ‘bata boy’ provides a multicultural solidarity with the lgbtq community

As Brighton- based ensemble Lakuta prepares for the release of their latest album ‘Brothers & Sisters’ (Aug. 12th) we are premiering the video for their debut single ‘Bata Boy’- an upbeat anthem for LGBT equality and individualism. Lakuta tells us: “Bata Boy is an empowering anthem, a protest song calling out prejudice, small-mindedness and hypocrisy in light of recent attacks on immigrants and the LGBT community in the UK and abroad. We are the children of immigrants, and as a band, our music celebrates the cultural diversity of Britain. It’s time to mobilize – step up and say “We will not stand for this!” Produced by the acclaimed Nick Faber, ‘Bata Boy’ sets an exciting and afrocentric tone for the upcoming album. Check it out below!
