This brand new track entitled "Power" features a collaboration between two up and coming Hip Hop artists from Canada and the UK: Dialectic and Lemzi. The message behind this track was to show the power that Hip Hop can have in uniting people from across the world; bringing together individuals of different backgrounds to fight for a common cause. 

POWER- Dialectic Feat. Lemzi (Prod. Agent of Change)

Toronto based Hip Hop artist Dialectic returns with a brand new track in the lead up to the release of his much anticipated debut EP entitled 'The Circus', due out later on in 2017.

Pillars Of Wisdom

Just over a year and a half ago, I first came across the story of Soleiman Faqiri. Meeting with his brother Yusuf and over the past few months seeing the amazing, tireless work that the Justice For Soli Campaign has been doing to raise awareness of his fate in that Lindsay jail, reading through report after report I was only left more and more struck, mortified by the vile inhumanity that had taken place; the sheer brutality and atrocious suffering to which Soleiman was subjugated to whilst in the care of the authorities, as a mentally ill man suffering from a sickness who required proper medical attention, let alone simply as a human being who deserved respect. It struck me deeply and it's heart-wrenching beyond belief. How can someone just do that to a sick person, what fills you with such rage? Who deserves this? To say it was a mere tragedy, to say this was a casualty of circumstances is incomprehensible. What value is attached to a single life? To every life? How do you condense let alone elaborate on what constitutes an entire existence, a soul, a being and all they were and whom they touched. And so, I decided to write this spoken word piece dedicated to Soleiman, to tell his story; to share with the world what he went through in the hope that this never happens again.

You can follow the @justiceforsoli campaign to keep up and get involved with the profound work the movement is doing across the spectrum to shed light on the crossroads between mental health, the abhorrent condition of state institutions and seeking justice for victims of police/state violence like Soleiman.
