Soundtrack of our lives

For artist Sizar Alexis, music is a way to stay centred while he works. We asked him to share one track that’s become part of his creative rhythm, captured by Mikael Lundblad.

“Lately, I’ve been listening to two albums on repeat while working: Clipe’s ‘Let God Sort Em Out’ and Burna Boy’s ‘No Sign of Weakness’. There’s something in the rhythm and tone of both that shifts the atmosphere and lets me reconnect.”

“If there’s one track that helps break a creative block right now, it’s ‘Buy You Life’ by Burna Boy. It has this intensity and introspection that pulls me back into focus – a kind of soulful meditation on mortality and the limits of material wealth. The message is simple, almost a cliché, but it stays with you: you can spend your life chasing money, but no amount of it will ever buy life itself.”
