about
Saila
“The roosters haven’t crowed yet, and Saila is already leaving for the hills”.
This song tells the story of Saila – an orphan who has become the breadwinner of his family at a young age. He works himself to the bone as a porter and struggles to afford food and accommodation for himself and his siblings. He dreams of a life other than his own, but as his daily routine clouds his dreams, he begins to accept his poor fate.
Congolese rhythms mix with drill, boom bap, and grime on this album of emancipatory jammers highlighting the lives of women. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 2, 2023
