Send Them To Coventry

about this album

A product of a decade of genre-blending that shattered illusions of UK rap one-dimensional range, Pa Salieu’s debut mixtape helps prove this evolution of sound isn’t limited to London. Send Them to Coventry is unapologetic, ruthless and courageously vulnerable, with the Midlands MC bending his sound from the depths of dancehall to drill, while still incorporating strong Afrofusion melodies and hand drum-patterns while marinating everything in patois and Black British slang. “It’s just trenches,” he says. “I’ve been through the wars.” Here, Salieu steers listeners though his dynamic tape, track by track.
