Multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer and co-founder of the Jazz Is Dead label Adrian Younge releases '“The American Negro”, an unapologetic critique detailing the systemic and malevolent psychology that afflicts people of colour*.

Music is an emotional release with a rhythmic vernacular, designed to communicate with an intended audience. In essence, a form of communication to integrate shared experience and semantics, thereby excluding those that do not share common ground; The American Negro is not for the faint of heart. The album is a powerful, multifaceted statement that reflects perennial injustices and serves to act as a lever of change during a time of mass disillusionment: an album for the people.
