Welsh ragga metallers Skindred‘s “Big Em Up” music video made it out online today, October 07th. That single comes from the group’s latest album “You Got This“, which hit #1 on the UK Albums Chart. Vocalist Benji Webbe views the song as a chance to spread positivity, stating:
“It’s so easy to get overwhelmed by life and everything it throws at you, from your gas bill to a family tragedy or people just being negative and your timeline filling up with hate and negativity on social media. ‘Big Em Up’ is a simple message for everyone to check on their friends and to pick ‘em up and to try and encourage some positivity back into the world. It’s a message me and my brothers in Skindred try and share in the music we play, so all we ask is for our fans and listeners to enjoy the single and to also share that message of positivity too. Please check on those around you. Big Em Up!!”
