Mole Navigates Societal Struggles and Mental Health On 'Dalai Lama'
South West London's Mole returns with 'Dalai Lama', an upbeat bop that carries a deeper message about mental health.
Following his debut single, 'No Typos', this July, Mole is back on the mic, sharing pertinent commentary about the proliferation of prescription drugs used to medicate young people.
On the new song, Mole raps about his personal experience with medication, as well as escapades with "some uppers and downers", and the affects they've had on him growing up.
The track's head-bopping dance beat and catchy chorus of "I'm calmer than the Dalai Lama" offers listeners the opportunity to simply vibe to the track without listening to its deeper message. However, it's likely that many young people will resonate with Mole's experience, as he delivers his opposition to the norm of prescriptions with creative lyricism.
A conscious rapper, Mole wants to create a safe space for his listeners, tapping into honesty and the power of shared experiences while pairing his message with an earworm instrumental.
