EARTHLING

Artwork by Kwame Acheampong @afrocheampong (young artists based out of Accra, Ghana).

Seeing the return of Louis VI after 3.5 years of him locking himself away to work on the next chapter of new music; ECOCIDE is featuring heavyweight collaborations in Moses Boyd, Durand Bernarr (Erykah Badu's singer), David Mrakpor, Emile Martinez, Dozer Carter, Alex Cosmo Blake (Guitar) & german super producer, and Jakarta Record's top artist Bluestaeb, “it's some of my favourite music I've made to date” says Louis VI “and a little taste of what’s to come…”. The subject of the EP "ECOCIDE" is tryna tell the bizarrely toxic relationship we have as humans with nature and our planet, sown into the songs that span across four universes and genres. Released on Nightmare’s On Wax’s newly minted label Hiya Self Recordings this EP with a rumoured bigger project to come…

YONN MANMAN LATÉ FT. Moses Boyd

“Orange Skies came out of frustration. It’s in reference to the forest fires we’ve been having all over the world due to the Climate Crises and how it felt as someone that loves nature - to watch our home burn, it felt like the world was ending. As one of my favourite artists and one of the most intelligent lyricists I’ve come across; I immediately knew Mick would connect with the irony and humour in this track; and wouldn’t struggle to cleverly highlight the absurdity of the way humans are acting towards the planet and deliver some truth.” Louis explains. “Black and brown people have been left out of this climate conversation yet around the world are on the front line of climate change even though they’ve contributed the least and that’s peak, that can’t run. This is about what climate change really means for our future.”

IT'S OK single

IT'S OK FT. LEX AMOR

New track out now before upcoming album EARTHLING 31st March from @itslouisvi

https://bio.to/LOUIS-VI

The track is about how unsustainable individualistic culture is and the arrogance, shortsightedness and disconnection of people in power when it comes to the natural world. Ft some wise words from @amazonleo

From Oscar "I don’t think I’ve ever met someone as passionate about nature as Louis and its definitely something we have bonded over a lot. We started this track in an industrial estate in north London and finished it off appropriately by the Pacific Ocean in Mexico in-between some whale watching and cactus hugging."

Me and Oscar actually ended up finishing this together, sitting on a roof in Mexico of an Airbnb we’d rented in Puerto Escondido on the Oaxacan Coast. We sat there on my laptop and went through all the takes we had from London and made this as the sun set, between the palms and the sea in front of us, Orange all around us. I love the end section where the tracks builds to this head of Oscar harmonizing, it felt Euphoric almost, it felt like it reflected exactly the scene in front of us. I finished the song with a recording of my bredrin Leo Cerda, who’s indigenous Kichwa from the Amazon, and who I stayed with when I went to Amazon, describing a saying the Kichwa community say about when you forget your dreams you’re no longer human, and that’s why people are able to destroy the natural world because they forget they are part of it.

Hope u enjoy :)

LYRICS:

One time for your fucking mind
Two time if your moving slow
Three times if you on the grind
Fourth time if you wanna grow
I’m out here tryna make my mind
But they out here tryna dam my flow
But hell nooo feel like they tryna snatch our souls
My lord 
My lord

Let the wind blow
Soon come when our wings grow
Rain punch at the window
Hold hands while we sing slow
Rain Bust shots at tin home
But where there’s death a ting grow
Out the ash the green poke
Sweet bitter, Bittersweet smoke
Respect the nature
Western world the maker of this angry nature
Burning oil heat our oceans until they vapour
Hurricanes blow
Landing on those that didn’t make her
How’s that’s fair bro?
Suffering from the waste of another mans petrol
Torn like paper when I heard that Death toll
Look fam, come on fam!

One time for your fucking mind
Two time if your moving slow
Three times if you on the grind
Fourth time if you wanna grow
I’m out here tryna make my mind
They out here tryna dam my flow
But hell nooo feels they tryna snatch our souls
My lord
My lord

Tell me now
I’m tryna be the best of me
My ancestors put unrest in me
Tryna be the best way to see
I’m tryna move like the black sands Bubble like the seas
Love the recipe
From Dominica to London g
From the nature island
Where volcanoes raise the highest
Safe asylum
Raised from violence
Slavery made for Midas
But we choose the way of kindness
Fruit taste like brightness
Hummingbirds sway in lilac
Badman put bass to fire
Island where seeds are making giants
Now the island where seas are breaking iron

One time for your fucking mind
Two time if your moving slow
Three times if you on the grind
Fourth time if you wanna grow
I’m out here tryna make my mind
They out here tryna dam my flow
But hell nooo feels they tryna snatch our souls
My lord
My lord
