We can come together and still be ourselves whilst celebrating different heritages and learning from each other.”

Priya’s brother Japhna Gold, who produced the song, adds: “Now more than ever, it is so important that we hold on to things that make us happy. Dancing is meditation, singing is meditation. We are all are connected whether we like it or not. This song is our dopamine for your soul—pull up!”

Directed by Dumas Haddad, the video for “Chicken Lemon Rice” features scenes of vibrant color, dance and fashion set against the background of a once-loved derelict London hotel.
