LYRICS:
I see Rain drops fall from the sky
As a tear drops from my eye
A blessing to all human kind
why is access denied?
The youth of the privileged have taken it for granted
As it flows out their taps they've always been sorted
elsewhere people are walking miles
A bucket on their head but yet you see them smile
Corperate companies the modern slave masters
Setting up base in 3rd world corners
Profit from their lands resources
PR campaign targeting the wealthy
The mountains on the bottles are there just there to fool ya
All they've done is run it through filters
In some places it's a sign of status
Ice cold from the fridge and tasteless
I see Rain drops fall from the sky
As a tear drops from my eye
A blessing to all human kind
Why is access denied?
It’s a short step from a drought to a flood
Millions of people under the mud
Crushin everything in its path
Have a little think next time yer in the bath
Wicked ones will laugh force fed with materials and class
Drinking out of broken glass
Make your way back from Mars
There’s more to life than sex bling and bars
Fast cars
the comedown will be hard
Leaving you scarred
I see Rain drops fall from the sky
As a tear drops from my eye
A blessing to all human kind
why is access denied?

🇬🇧Asian Dub Foundation are a genre unto themselves. Their unique combination of tough jungle rhythms, dub bass lines and wild guitar overlaid by references to their South Asian roots and militant high-speed rap has established them as one of the best live bands. During their long and productive career Asian Dub Foundation have shared the stage with the likes of Rage Against The Machine, the Beastie Boys and Primal Scream also collaborating on record with the likes of Radiohead, Sinead O’ Connor, Iggy Pop and Chuck D.
The story began in the 90’s when ADF formed from a music workshop in East London at the institution which is their spiritual home, Community Music. Their unique beginnings in a music workshop marked out both their sound and their wider educational aspirations, as showed by their early involvements with Roma Youth in Budapest, hooking up with the legendary Afro Reggae in the favelas of Rio, and setting up their own education organisation ADF Education (ADFED), not to mention their campaigns on behalf of those suffering miscarriages of justice. Building a solid live reputation in the mid-90’s, particularly in France, they eventually established themselves as an important worldwide force and particularly as an explosive alternative to the backward-looking obsession with Britpop in the UK.
In addition to their blistering live reputation ADF were one of the first bands to experiment with the now more commonplace live film re-score, beginning with their rapturously-received interpretation of La Haine back in in 2001. They’ve continued to perform said project or nearly two decades, taking in David Bowie’s Meltdown at London’s South Bank and a controversial show at the Broadwater Farm Estate, scene of the events that led to the London Riots of 2011.They’ve also rescored George Lucas’ debut THX 1138 (with encouragement from Mr. Lucas himself) and they’ve recently revived their explosive live interpretation to the continually relevant Battle of Algiers at the Museum of Immigration in Paris.
It was a busy 2019 for Asian Dub Foundation with the long-awaited reissue of their Mercury Prize-nominated 1998 classic Rafi’s Revenge. The reissue garnered ecstatic reviews, all of which agreed that the sound and the message that ADF threw down in 98 is as relevant now as it was then-perhaps even more so. So it’s timely that in 2020 the band are set to release their 9th album “Access Denied” which finds them as uncompromising as ever.
