Lowkey lays down the mic

REVOLUTION wishes to express its sadness at the decision by Lowkey, the UK-based rapper and political activist to take a hiatus from music. Lowkey has fought against the imperialist wars in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as being a champion to the Palestinian people and their struggle for freedom, he has exposed police brutality in the UK and the extreme inequalities of capitalism both in the UK and overseas. By fusing strong ethics and political convictions with his unmistakable musical style Lowkey brought domestic and international political issues into the minds of many, both young and old. REVOLUTION thanks Lowkey for his unmatchable contribution to politics and music over the last few years and hopes that the future will see him once again turn his mic against the imperialist butchers and those who protect them.
