These Ukrainian grandmothers are helping preserve the long history of Ukraine’s folk music. Miklós Both, founder of the Polyphony Project, is on a mission: to collect folk music in Ukraine. In the last four years, the project has visited over 100 different villages and recorded 2000 songs sung by the women in each village. All these folk songs are then compiled into a digital archive, as a way to preserve the long-standing musical folklore tradition of each Ukrainian village. The Jeeni Refugee Aid channel supports refugee aid and charities across the world.

Profiiit - D.R.E (feat. Cool Que)

This short, but action-packed sixth track from Profiiit's newest album, 'Alexander' (released 28/02/22, Dead Poet Society) features 'Cool Que' and some aggressively catchy beats. Profiiit is a groundbreaking and restless force in the US underground rap scene. His style cannot be simply defined in terms of genres due to his insatiable need to constantly move and push his sound to new levels, however influences include J. Cole, Kanye West, Pusha T, Kendrick Lamar and the late XXXTENTACION. Something Profiiit has in common with all of these inspirations is a long endeavour for greatness.
