Life In The Stocks

#169 Al Rumjen (King Prawn)

What do you get if you combine Rage Against The Machine with The Specials and Public Enemy? King Prawn, aka the very best of all the UK ska punk bands to emerge around the turn of the Millennium. This week's guest is Al Rumjen, frontman in King Prawn, and former vocalist in the Asian Dub Foundation. Al joins Matt for a pre-COVID sit down, back when Brexit was the main topic on everyone's minds, to discuss racism, nationalism, prejudice, heritage, and, of course, the history of King Prawn.
