Connie Constance has shared a new rework of her track ‘Kamikaze’, featuring Sleaford Mods‘ Jason Williamson – check it out below.The track originally appeared on Constance’s 2022 LP ‘Miss Power’ and has been reworked ahead of some UK headline shows.Discussing the track further Connie offers: “It’s about the western beauty standard women are expected to uphold especially those in the media eye.
And also the idea that we’re all meant to have it together all the time,” Constance said of the track. “It’s talking about Amy Winehouse and more recently Caroline Flack and how they were treated by the media instead of cared for in a time of need.”Of his role in the reworking of the song, Williamson added: “I love Connie’s energy and message in this track.
Although the initial concept was for me to come in as an additional voice from her perspective, i felt it was disingenuous to present myself as someone with first-hand experience of the patriarchy, so I came at it from the other angle: the male counter, the gatekeeper.
The tunes banging, I love it.”Listen to the new reworking of ‘Kamikaze’ below.This week, Constance will headline two shows at London’s The Lower Third, with a new gig at Village Underground just announced for September 15.
