A spirited anthem promoting a unified world no matter your gender, race or creed, Cherie Laurent's new single 'Down On Me' is a rocking song with a powerful message.
The Iraqi-Australian artist was born in Baghdad during the Iran-Iraq war; raised in a war-torn country, Cherie left her homeland and has lived in a variety places (including Jordan, UAE and New Zealand) before settling in Australia.Scorching guitars and a rhythm section that oozes intensity, add a guitar solo that sparks to life with '80s glam-rock feels plus Cherie's passioned vocals and 'Down On Me' is a rock & roll adventure.
Ahead of the song's release tomorrow (4 February), scenestr is stoked to premiere the 'Down On Me' music video today. Enjoy.
"'Down On Me' is my gift to every human on Mother Earth that has experienced discrimination and longs for the voice of freedom, respect, equality and justice.
"If you are Black, White, Asian, Indian, Arabic, Latin, Oriental or African or even a mix of nations, Muslim, Catholic, Jewish or whatever you believe in.
"If you are tall, short, skinny, or fat, straight, gay, bi, trans or binary. Whoever you are, wherever you are, you deserve equality.
"Let's stop discrimination and bigotry. Let us stand together and be the voice of equality."
