Red Baraat will be releasing a new album, Sound The People on June 29 via Rhyme & Reason. Today they share the LP's title track which features vox by Heems (Das Racist). The single premiered via Stereogum who note, 'like always, Red Baraat delivers an explosion of sound...(and 'Sound The People') is a politically soaked display of energy.' The band's Sunny Jain told them, 'Heems and I met several years when he was still doing Das Racist. When Red Baraat started working on the new album, there were various ideas I had about South Asian diaspora, migration and Trump's disconcerting victory, but it hadn't all been tied together just yet. I shared all this with Heems and also sent him a couple of songs I had composed specifically thinking about his flow. The band was tracking for a few days at Studio G in Brooklyn and I asked Heems to come in and lay down a rap. He turned up in the studio and did his thing and that's when we all realized, 'Holy crap! This is the title track!' He pulled the whole album concept together with those words.' Read the full write-up here. Jain further notes, 'When we were hearing Heems deliver those lyrics we knew what our hook needed to be and Little Shalimar (Run The Jewels) helped bring the whole song together in post production'

Red Baraat are excited to announce the upcoming release of a new album, Sound The People. The LP will be released on June 29 via Rhyme & Reason, their second for the label. You can pre-order the LP or CD here. Pre-order the album now!
