Loyle Carner filmed the video in Guyana, South America.
Loyle Carner has shared his latest new cut Georgetown, produced by Madlib.
“John Agard’s poem ‘Half-caste’ had a heavy impact on me,” Carner said. “To see someone who was older, that looked like me, sharing a reflection of a similar lived experience made me feel comfortable/proud to not fit in.”
“It kinda gave me the permission to finally write explicitly about being mixed. There’s so much beauty in the gaps in-between, and in some ways this song touches on that. For me, it’s about finding this inner confidence through understanding of self, and spending time back home.”
“It is a representation of finally feeling like one whole person instead of two halves. Also another piece of the MADloyle puzzle. More on the hard drive.”
