Speech from the throne
Lady Leshurr has released a relatable rap about lockdown during the Covid-19 pandemic. Called ‘Quarantine Speech’ the song has similarities with her ‘Queen’s Speech’ series of freestyle raps released in 2016. The tune serves as a serious message with elements like a chorus saying “wash them hands” but also is tongue-in-cheek and fun. The rapper from Birmingham is donating profits from the song’s streams, and from face masks she is selling, to the NHS.
