multi-talented Sam Tsang makes music, directs videos, and even creates clothes. His new song &#8220;Be Alright&#8221; is funky and distorted, with a deep groove that opens up a lane for him to talk frankly about a stilted relationship with a family member who doesn&#8217;t speak the same language as him. His ability to underpin musical innovation with real heart and emotion is genuinely impressive. <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            Tsang, who has worked with Fred Again&#8230; on various projects away from his own solo material, shows little vanity in the &#8220;Be Alright&#8221; video. Running with the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">theme<\/a> of food (congee is a type of Chinese porridge) he appears in the visual in bright green and orange face paints, playing the role of peas, carrots, and even a yellow egg yolk. It&#8217;s a playful way of showing how food can be a way of communicating when language isn&#8217;t always the easiest method. How better to show you care for someone than cooking them a hearty meal? <\/p>\n<p>            Speaking to The FADER via email, Congee said: &#8220;&#8216;Be Alright&#8217; touches on the relationship between me and mum. She was born in China, moved here when she was a teenager not knowing a word of English. I was born in the U.K. and my Chinese is pretty much non-existent. Even though there is a language barrier between me and my mum sometimes all I need is for her to tell me is that everything is going to be okay.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            &#8220;I wanted the music video to take the same concept as the song but give it a lighter tone. After a lot of bad ideas I settled with stop motion on cut out boards like the ones you\u2019d find at the seaside. The stopmotion shows a bunch of events that ask the question \u2018am I going to be alright?\u2019 I find it so satisfying coming up with an idea and then seeing it all come to life. Thank you to everyone that was involved.&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-229223\" class=\"content_block paragraph embed triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Congee - Be Alright\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CPgdfLUn4Bs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">David Renshaw<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
