Seun Kuti & Egypt 80‘s latest release, “Na Dem” ft. Tom Morello, is about politicians who don’t keep their promise to make the nation better as the song goes. Instead of relegating that subject to the background the song brings that subject to the forefront of its message.

The result is music for music’s sake and for the culture and political-art crowd where sound and subject are one. It is about the negative consequences of a political leadership that does not fulfil its responsibilities. So “Na Dem” is very social in purpose but it does not divorce the message from the music itself.

The collaboration with Tom Morello adds another flavour to the release, but the heart of the track is Seun Kuti & Egypt 80. “Na Dem” is built on a simple idea, that music can push back against the realities people face and it’s able to make difficult issues a public matter. It’s a release of music that is not just another one, with a political flavour especially for those who look for music that links culture with social commentary.

François Marius‘ latest release, “What You Gonna Do (Radio Edit),” asks a heartfelt question, the difference between saying you love someone and showing it. The song is built on a catchy dance beat and guitars with an energetic feel and emotional message about trust, commitment and openness that comes with giving someone your heart.

The song questions the uncertainty of loving someone and if they’ll stick around when the going gets tough. The song straddles the line of intimacy and fear of a broken heart. It’s relatable because it’s not about saying love, it’s about showing love. François Marius’ “Radio Edit” is a relationship-centered offering, providing sincerity in an upbeat musical setting. The guitars are textured and the dance beat keeps the song interesting.

“What You Gonna Do” challenges listeners to look past statements and consider what real commitment looks like in action. This is a song for people who believe that love should be heard not just in the words of a person but in the actions they are willing to take.
