Thinking about the Specials today obviously, and UB40, Billy Bragg, people who gave a voice to people at that time. Is there anything like that now? I miss that, especially now, with things as they are.

Also a rapper called Bob Vylan, he's brilliant it's quite rocky

He's brilliant. DH (old punk) and me (old Goth) both LOVE him.

Sooo good isn't he !

I came to recommend Grace Petrie too. There are loads of folk protest singers, if you listen to grace Petrie on Spotify then other stuff will come up as recommended listening
