Random Page  /  Random Song


Biography by Jon Azpiri: London-born singer Labi Siffre has spent his career breaking down boundaries. The openly gay singer has built a small cult following with works that deal squarely with homophobia and racism. In addition to his nine albums, the multi-talented Siffre has written three books of poetry and has also written for the stage.

Musically, Siffre is known for his soulful, high-pitched voice and thought-provoking lyrics. His single \"I Got The\" from his 1975 album Remember My Song received a modicum of fame decades after its release when its funky piano hook was sampled in Eminem's 1999 debut smash single \"My Name Is.\" In 1988, Siffre had a hit with his anti-apartheid anthem \"(Something Inside) So Strong,\" a song that embodies his vocal talents and his social conscience.
