Neon Jungle - Can't Stop The Love ft. Snob Scrilla (Official Music Video) [+ Review]


After the release of their debut studio album, Neon Jungle are back with a new track entitled 'Can't Stop The Love', which - as it suggests - is all about the love and a real feel-good track. The new song tackles with some of the issues surrounding hate in the world today, such as racism, which is displayed through the lyrics in both Neon Jungle's verses - 'We get taught the colour of our skins/Is it what we're defined by' - and also Snob Scrilla's verses - 'Are we living in the nation as promoting segregation/ Before you see my colour you should see me as your brother/ A strong black man with a proud white mother'. The lyrics are particularly powerful in this context, and it seems appropriate for the members of Neon Jungle to be talking about this strong issue considering their promotion for equality and the fact the members of the group are of a variety of races. 



In order to help promote this anthem of acceptance and love the gang have recruited members of their fan base into the music video, which sees home-made videos (a particularly popular element around nowadays) created by fans being incorporated into the video itself. The fans have thought up creative ways to express themselves and the lyrics they are singing to, including body paint and impromptu dancing, as well as the classic paper lyric slide-show. In between the fan-made segments, there is of course clips of Amira, Asami, Shereen and Jess who take up positions in different locations and join forces towards the end of the song, in the video. As usual, Neon Jungle's latest tracks showcases their confident, edgy style and the product seems to be something their more comfortable with. 

The material is powerful so it's reassuring to see that there isn't a lot of needless effects added to the song as it stands out so assuredly by itself. 'Cant Stop The Love' seems to be a give-back for their fans so its questionable as to what effect it will have on mainstream radio, but this is a passion project and it's clear the fans are really getting into this one. This is perhaps a clever move from a group who is beginning to establish itself as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, and it begs the question as to what sort of material they will release next as a follow-up to their debut album. Of course, 'Can't Stop The Love' is taken from said album, which has other memorable tracks like 'Badman' and 'So Alive'. If Neon Jungle does release another song as a separate single off the album, which one would you like it to be? Perhaps you're a fan of the edgy 'Badman' or the euphoric 'So Alive', or do you like the rhythm of 'Sleepless in London'? Let us know in the comments!
