slowthai ‘adhd’ video + HELL IS HOME tour March 2022

“A deeply moving, melancholic – but never self-pitying – record about shame, defiance, childhood, adulthood, mistakes and, ultimately, forgiving yourself. On ‘TYRON’, slowthai roars.” ***** NME
“Slowthai is the British equivalent of Eminem: a preternaturally talented rapper who acts tough but is too much of an open book to cover his flaws and insecurities.” **** The Times
“After a debut that declared war on politics, Slowthai became Britain’s most disruptive lyricist. Now, his kaleidoscopic musical roots have a fresh thesis to feed on… and things are about to get loud” GQ
A stand out from the record being raised up by fans is the affecting album closer, ‘adhd’ where slowthai digs deep and finds untold courage to expose the inner workings of his mind. In stark contrast to recent singles ‘CANCELLED’ and VEX, ‘adhd’ is essentially the point of TYRON, the album is a journey from start to finish and this song is the finale and if social chatter is anything to go by, it’s helping a lot of people out there with the same condition.
The video is also a counterpoint to the ruckus caused by CANCELLED and VEX and find slowthai in a contemplative space – a one-take shot of him with a city-scape backdrop feeling distant from the noise and bustle of the world. Watch ‘adhd’ HERE.
slowthai recently announced his ‘SOMETHING TO LOOK FOWRARD TO’ tour in support of small venues for September 2021 which sold out in seconds last week. In the hope of not disappointing fans, he has now prepared a full-blown roam of the country for March 2022 – the HELL IS HOME TOUR includes 2 x O2 Academy Brixton shows in London.
Pre-sale for the tour is on Wednesday March 3rd and general sale Friday March 5th. Head to www.slowthai.com for full details.
