In a statement about the album, Colorado said: “Contra-ICE is not only an album. It is not only a collective, it is a cultural infrastructure built to support frontline organisations, amplify immigrant voices, and mobilise creatives who believe that love is not passive; it’s organised.
He continued, “Every track, transition, and voice serves a purpose, inviting listeners to move through moments of grief, anger, resilience, hope, and ultimately, action.
From beginning to end, it tells a story, weaving together music, comedy, and spoken word from a diverse community of artists responding to the inhumane treatment perpetuated by today’s fascist ICE state” (as per Consequence).
Produced by Beastie Boys collaborator Mario Caldato Jr., Hanna and Ad-Rock’s cover of Bieber’s ‘Let Me Love You’ also features contributions from Money Mark, Fredo Ortiz, and Frank Figueroa.
In a statement about the record, Bikini Kill’s Hanna said: “It’s not often you get to play music with your favourite people while working with a grassroots organisation like Contra-ICE.
