Kinsale Road Accommodation Centre, Cork

Last night.

A woman, who has a six-year-old child, was found dead at the direct provision centre on the Kinsale Road in Cork.

Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland writes:

It is with sadness and regret that one of our own has lost her life earlier tonight (23/08/2016) at our Kinsale Road Accommodation Centre in Cork. The details are sketchy at the moment, but it is alleged that the Korean woman was found dead at her room by her 6-year-old boy who has been playing outside at the time. On her mother not responding to his knock, the child went to the security for them to access the room and, on opening the door, the lifeless body was discovered…

JAFARIS – Performing at Hard Working Class Heroes

What you may need to know…

01. The Dubliner formerly known as ProFound has been making waves in Irish hip-hop in recent times.

02. Seemingly oozing with a new confidence since changing his pseudonym, Jafaris is no slouch outside the sphere of hip-hop and spoken word, appearing in Sing Street and writing scripts in his own right. Accompanying Hare Squead on tour and navigating the Irish festival grind has fine-honed his live presence.

03. Streaming above is the video for Lucid, released last month, and shot/edited by Gorilla and collaborators.

04. Confirmed for Hard Working Class Heroes fest, happening in Dublin from October 6th-8th.

Verdict: Spacey, psychey beats underpin lyrics and honesty reminiscent of early-2000s UK hip-hop. A compelling prospect.
