Gil Scott-Heron is well known for his mesmerising mix of poetry and politics, he became known as 'the godfather of rap' and some called him 'the black Bob Dylan' (though he protested that he was a better singer!). He was also a novelist and activist, with a huge influence on rap, soul, slam-poetry and modern music generally.
This play takes its title from a classic example of a Gil Scott-Heron track - it is poetic, political as well as being very emotionally touching for us the listeners.
