Kris Tidjan - Lords of War
Description
Kris Tidjan’s first single off his debut album, “Lords of War” is an epic and dynamic track that showcases his unique blend of ‘soulful defiance’.
“Lords of War” is a powerful and thought-provoking track that addresses the destructive nature of war and its impact on society. Writing began in 2005 as a response to Geoge ‘OG’ Bush’s speech from 1990. The song features Tidjan’s signature soulful vocals and broken beat jazz riffs. In true afrobeats style the song encompasses many syncopations which seamlessly weave in and out of each other.
‘Lords of War’ is designed to shift perspectives by encouraging listeners to think critically about the purpose of war, and also to visualize a more peaceful world. ‘…We are the small axe ready to cut them down’ is a constant reminder to the power that the individual has to change big things.
