Music: Young Fathers

Young Fathers (named so because all three of the members have their fathers’ names), is a group from Edinburgh that have been moving people with their music for the last couple of years. One track in particular being, “Sister”, which starts with some chilling chants and then heads straight into a verse, setting the scene for the rest of the song. Intelligent rapping with some really abstract lyrics, and a chanted mixture of pidgin English and Yoruba over some great bass sounds unite to create a raw and intriguing track which will be sure to move you in unexpected ways.
