Welcome to SOUND IN COLOR’s British Invasion!

SOUND IN COLOR is typically African-American-centered, but in its first year I embedded a hyperlocal mix (The ATX Mixtape, throw it back), and thoroughly enjoyed it, so here we go again!

Since our friends across the pond experienced the Atlantic Slave Trade (and the fallout from “reconstruction”) in very similar ways as those of us in the States did, their culture is closely aligned to ours (as you’ll see) and their perspectives are something I feel more qualified to speak on than I do others in the African global diaspora.

So here’s how it’ll work:

This week, I’ll post 2 songs each day as usual (except today because you’re getting a free BONUS TRACK!), with a Brit on SIDE A, and an American on SIDE B. Otherwise, everything’s pretty much the same!

Alright then, mate? Cool, cool.
