To mark what would have been his late father’s 40th birthday, Bandokay has released a new single titled “Memories”.
The track serves as a tribute to Bandokay’s father, Mark Duggan, who was shot and killed by police in August 2011. Steering away from his usual raw approach, Bandokay opens up throughout this song to offload some heartfelt and introspective lyrics.
As well as showing Bando paying respect to his father at a cemetery, the visuals also begin with a heartfelt message from the north London rapper.
“This means so much more to me than I can explain, it’s deeper than music,” the message reads. Happy birthday dad, I hope this makes you proud.”
