## About

Claudius Afolabi "Labi" Siffre is a British singer, songwriter and poet. Siffre released nine albums between 1970 and 1998. His compositions include "It Must Be Love", "Crying Laughing Loving Lying", and " So Strong" – an anti-apartheid song inspired by a television documentary – which hit Number 4 on the UK chart. The latter song won Siffre the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors. In addition to music, he has published essays, the stage and television play Deathwrite and three volumes of poetry: Nigger, Blood on the Page, and Monument.
