Surya Sen - Buccho Ni Ba Bhai (Grindin') (Single)
North London’s multi-talented Surya Sen eagerly returns with bouncy, Bengali-infused club track “Buccho Ni Ba Bhai”, the latest instalment from his debut mixtape “At What Cost” set for release April 29th. The latest single is an exploration of Sen’s heritage and identity and the next piece of the puzzle in the upcoming thirteen-track project. Sen will be celebrating the launch of the upcoming mixtape with a sold out launch party in Hackney at the end of the month.
“The song is an ode to my heritage as a proud British Bangladeshi second generation immigrant, the Bengali lyrics are an interpolation of a song by new york rapper Lal Miah. The verse rapped in english comments on the progress in bangladeshi british rights and race relations, since the first wave of Bangladeshi immigrants landed in brick lane in the 60s… the song is my expression that the hostility faced and trauma felt was not in vain, but we continue to move forward. It is a celebration of how far we have come as a community but also highlighting the need to keep going and also relates back to the mixtape title 'At What Cost?'” - Surya Sen
