New York, NY (Top40 Charts) French-Senegalese singer, dancer and model Diarra premiered her new single "Set Free" with a music video directed by actress Meagan Good. Released during Black History Month, the stunning visual is a statement piece on equality and freedom.
"They said 'justice is every human's right' Meanwhile my people been fighting for justice for way too long and still seem so far away from it. SET US FREE!" said Diarra, describing the song and video.
"I was inspired to help craft a vision with Diarra after hearing 'Set Free'.. as horrific as the pandemic has been- I believe in some ways there's been a huge blessing.. an opportunity to sit still, really focus in on everything that's been happening around us and to intentionally discern what our role is .. this video, this song.. is artistic activism .. I don't want people to get comfortable-I don't ever want to go back to the way things were .. I want to be better.. I want us all to be better" - Meagan Good
"Set Free" was produced by Riley Urick.
