Emerging Filipina-Canadian singer-songwriter Jenn Nucum gives food for thought on new, politically informed single 'Out For Blood'.
You can tell a song has something important to say when it comes stripped from all distractions and ‘Out For Blood’ shines through its vocals alone. Skating on subtly dramatic guitar lines, Jenn Nucum’s gentle yet determined voice draws attention to her sharp, observant lyricism that calls out social injustices - “Haven’t we learned anything? Feeding our ignorance, dismissing reasons, perpetuated tunnel-vision. I can’t relate, I choose not to watch.”
With ‘Out For Blood’, Jenn has crafted a haunting piece of music that, especially in light of the Black Lives Matter movement, is a call for action: No more looking away, no more space for ignorance. The time for change is now.
