Darius Scott Releases New Single “Big Brave Man”

DARIUS SCOTT
New Single “BIG BRAVE MAN” Is Out Now

June 22, 2020, self-taught singer, songwriter, producer and musician from Atlanta, GA, Darius Scott is thrilled to share his new single “BIG BRAVE MAN” that is out now.

He has released the song on Father’s Day (June 21). The song has an awareness factor and it commemorates Fathers who passed away or are not currently within arm’s reach. During this time it’s really important that we celebrate black fatherhood with COVID hitting minority communities the hardest along with the social injustices that’s been occurring.

Darius says, “I originally wrote Big Brave Man as an open letter to my father, almost a year after he died on Father’s Day in 2019. It took me months to write it. I would pick it up and come back to it. I wanted to let him know how much I had grown in the year since he transitioned. Losing him left a gaping hole in my life, and even though I had grown, that empty space hadn’t filled back up, it was merely expanding. I signed my first record deal, got my first major placements, and toured the world, literally right after he died. He for sure had a hand in all that. That’s just what angels do. They go before you, and make sure the path is clear. Big Brave Man puts the different stages of grief on display. I had to be so strong taking care of him in the months leading up to his death. I recognize now that it’s kind of hard to feel brave in the absence of your heroes. I wrote this song for those who’ve lost, and for those who still have heroes to hold on to.”

Darius recently executed the first episode of his IGTV series“BIG BRAVE” Conversations featuring @KevOnStage where they raised $735 for Chance The Rapper’s organization SOCIAL WORKS SocialWorks aims to empower the youth through the arts, education and civic engagement https://www.socialworkschi.org/about-us/
