Michael Kiwanuka just released his new single, “Hero”, before his album KIWANUKA comes out on Nov. 1.

The song revolves around the idea that “maybe all heroes die first.” The British singer-songwriter uses this song to pay homage to influential heroes that have passed due to violence, such as, Fred Hampton, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, JFK, Sam Cooke, John Lennon, Marvin Gaye, Tupac and more.
