One of my favourite musicians/poets/Writers, Benjamin Clementine, so I decided to write a small review of his hit called “Nemesis” I hope you enjoy this review and highly recommend listening to this talented young man.

The artist

Some artists create albums, and some storytellers use subtle weaves of syllables and poetic rhythm to translate life into music. Benjamin Clementine, an enigmatic figure in eclectic music, created a sensation with his track ‘Nemesis’ from the album ‘At Least for Now’.

‘Nemesis’, brimming with emotional intensity and depth, presents a remarkable journey into Clementine’s unorthodox lifestyle and experiences.

Humming Significance of ‘Nemesis’

The word ‘nemesis’ refers to an unbeatable foe or rival, and interestingly, Clementine uses this connotation to craft an intricate narrative of self-discovery and resilience. Rooted in his struggle against poverty, homelessness, and isolation, the song visualises the influential power of these experiences, encapsulating them as ‘nemesis’. The track is a testament to Clementine’s battle against self-doubt and societal judgment.

In the silent voices of my heart, I walk alone, where shadows weep and dreams lay shattered, like remnants of a storm long past.
