Brat Punk Delilah Bon Teams Up with ALT BLK ERA on New Single “Witch”
Delilah Bon teams up with alt-duo ALT BLK ERA on spooky new single “Witch”. Check out the video for the track here…
To celebrate the upcoming spooky season, brat-punk hip hopper Delilah Bon has released her new single and lyric video for “Witch”, which features a guest appearance from duo ALT BLK ERA.
The single is described a war cry for women everywhere, past and present, lyrically addressing the thousands of innocent women killed during the 14th-17th century witch trials fuelled by religious fear mongering and misogyny.
Watch the video here:
On the new single, Delilah Bon comments:
“I wrote this song for the forgotten women in history that were killed on suspicion of witchcraft during the 14th – 17th century witch trails. If women were outspoken, if they challenged the church or the patriarchy, they would be forced to confess to being a witch under torture then hanged or burnt at the stake.”
Delilah continues:
“All of it was fuelled by misogyny and the fear of women’s power. They wanted to silence and blame women, killing over 50,000 of them across Europe and America. I did a lot of reading about witches and couldn’t believe how barbaric and wide scale it all was, it only felt right to give these women a voice 300 years later.”
Joining Delilah on the track is genre-bending duo ALK BLK ERA who merge the musical boundaries of rock by incorporating the influences of rap, DnB, electronica and operatic sounds and, through their music, are on a mission to create diverse, safe spaces for alts and their allies.
