Sometimes flex is cool. Flow switches are even better. Yet, there are moments when we must halt, observe our world, and speak plainly about what truly counts. Certain realities aren’t up for discussion; the right side of history is strikingly evident. This undeniable urgency directly fuels the powerful new single, ‘Free My People’.
In a powerful act of musical activism, M1 of Dead Prez and French-Moroccan rapper Solomane have joined forces with acclaimed artists Sa-Roc, Nejma Nefertiti, and Yasmeen Quintana for this fundraising single. Released via The Rose Production, the track is a direct response to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and other global conflict zones.
Born from an hour-long session in Barcelona, the song blends an old-school boom-bap spirit with a raw, resilient message. Each artist, from M1’s prayer for peace to Sa-Roc’s rapid-fire delivery and Quintana’s soulful voice, contributes to a collective call for an end to suffering.
All proceeds benefit Clean Shelter, a non-profit founded by a Palestinian and an Israeli, working to improve sanitary conditions in Gaza. As The Rose Production’s Adrien Rosier states, “Music has always been a voice for unity, and that’s exactly what we stand for.”
This powerful collaboration reminds us that in the shadow of war, “it is invariably the women and children… who pay the highest price.”
