MEI - See Us (Official Video)

For London-based vocalist, songwriter, producer and bassist MEI, the last 12 months have been a test of her character. Surviving COVID 19, overcoming heartbreak and battling racial injustice, 2020 was a year that threw everything it could and more at someone who quickly lost her rhythm for life.

Returning this year with a brand new five-track EP, MEI stands stronger than ever. Sharing the first single "See Us", an anthem for black women everywhere to demand to be seen for exactly who they are, MEI demonstrates her radiance by channelling those previous set-backs into something refreshingly positive.

Proving that her artistry is ever-growing and always developing, "See Us" warps an extensive sound palette to create a sonic kaleidscope of intensity. Built upon clean-cut production from both MEI and duo A Good Friend (Teresa Origone & Jaleesa Gemerts), the track's electronic glitches and power pulses transform the single into a whirlwind of resistance. Utilising her unique blend of R&B, rap, soul and alternative, "See Us" produces a track woven with defiant lyricism - "they don't see us, we gon' make them see us" - and an energy that makes you take notice.
