Lowkey

Highly articulate and discerning London rapper and political activist Lowkey makes a long awaited return. In 2012 he took a musical hiatus to concentrate on his studies, as he told his Facebook fans, but this July Lowkey (real name Kareem Dennis) reappeared with the single 'Ahmed'. Accompanied by a lo-fi lyric video, 'Ahmed' expresses Lowkey's gut-wrenching take on the current refugee crisis, focusing in particular on the photo of the little Syrian boy washed up dead on a Turkish beach last year.
