Offlicence team up with Apache Indian<\/h3>\n
\"\"A WEST Midlands Asian music group is hoping to use their music to unite different cultures.<\/strong> <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Offlicence, a Midlands based group consisting of vocalist Sunny J, and rappers Lexeye and Projay, will release the first single \u2018Indian Ting\u2019 from their highly anticipated album \u2018Desilution\u2019 later this month. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The boys have roped in rapper Apache Indian for the song.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cIndian Ting reflects our diverse cultural influences and backgrounds that make up modern Britain\u201d, Offlicence member Sunny J said.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that ethnic minorities do have a voice in the UK, this song is an expression of unity between Britain\u2019s two biggest subcultures.”<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Apache Indian, a mainstream star in the 90s with hits \u2018Arranged Marriage\u2019 and \u2018Boom Shack-A-Lak\u2019, was all praise for the group.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cMeeting the boys and listening to the sound of what they represent, It was great, I thought it was very new\u201d, he said. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe they have so much to offer, the world has to wait for this album, we need something fresh. As I look, we have so many people from different backgrounds, different styles, you have reggae, you have hip-hop, you have Bhangra. If used in the right way, people sometimes use them in the wrong way. These are real kind of musicians and artist that I think have a big future.\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The video medley for Indian Ting also features Laddi Bath (One Pegg More), guest appearances by Notorious Jatt, Hayezsquad Ltd and finalists from the hit ITV show \u2018Britain\u2019s Got talent\u2019 – Kombat Breakers.\u00a0<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

White reggae artist Cheshire Cat, a veteran in the Bhangra industry also explains his views and opinions on modern Britain on the official Indian Ting remix.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

“Indian Ting” Ft Apache Indian will be available for purchase in all good music stores, iTunes & other distribution outlets \u2013 mid April.<\/div>\n
