It was an honour to open up for the www.lockedin.live festival earlier in June 2020. When Floacist asked me to open up i was ecstatic to be on stage again considering my March 21st album showcase had been postponed due to covid-19. Held at the awesome South London venue, Hideaway alongside musicians I sang a few songs including the title track of my first album ‘Daily Process’. See lyrics below
I feel that with the Black Lives Matter movement and recent worldwide protests following the brutal deaths committed by non-black police and racists upon several African American in particular George Floyd’s death this song is fitting to be heard and challenging us by asking ‘What are we going to do?’.
Here I’m singing ‘Daily Process” produced by Otis Kirton taken from debut 2006 album of the same title.

Verse 1
Morning new money’s tight and I have just got paid
After bills are through I got something left to make my way
But with all the news and fighting people see me and they say
What’s the use of praying when we all see judgement day
With the youts dem in the streets hustling hard to make ends meet
As they start to discover how the system as dealt with their fathers
As we walk a narrow way I can see our faith will pay
Chorus
What are we gonna do, what are we gonna tell our children
What are we gonna do when they are going through this daily process too
What are we gonna show are future what are we gonna say
When they are living in this world from day to day
Verse 2
All expenses have increased yet our finances lack peace
Till we start to wonder, whose agenda do we really sponsor
Generations seek for meaning how did God create for us to breathe with blood that speaks
What happened to humanity?
People are pressing as they try their best to make their dreams fulfilled
Men create disease so they can solve them for a special deal
They stole my mothers tongue I don’t know which tribe I come from but I’m an African original Nubian
Chorus
What are we gonna do, what are we gonna tell our children
What are we gonna do when they are going through this daily process too
What are we gonna show are future what are we gonna say
When they are living in this world from day to day
Vamp
What are we gonna do, what are we gonna say
They reap what we sow, what are we gonna do
