It’s summer, it’s time for the Paris Olympics, it’s time to celebrate, right? Wrong! At least – not if you’re The Supertights. But what could possibly be wrong with a multi-million pound project that stands to make loads of already rich corporations even richer while selflessly facilitating the viewing of international sport for the entertainment of the masses? Maybe have a listen to what Lisa Melissa says as she does a spoken word-y Gil Scott-Heron type thing over a laid-back jazz-funky groove apparently loosely inspired by The Honey Drippers’ Impeach The President on Impeach The Olympics. There’s the migrants who’ve been cleared out – I mean it’s not like they actually helped build the Olympic venues or anything is it – oh – wait. Then there’s the social cleansing of the homeless to tidy up the area because you’ve got to keep up appearances right? What else? Cleaning out the students? Increasing Metro and hotel prices, putting up extra cameras to surveil the population? Well, you’ve got to protect your profi- er – punters haven’t you? Only 200 copies on vinyl 7″ and the flip features the instrumental Impeach The Olympics Pt 2.
