Memphis punk band Negro Terror released their latest single KKKaren Anthem as they start the new year. The track combines their street punk sound with messages about fighting injustice and standing up to difficult people. Band members describe the song as aggressive music that calls for action against oppression.

The group began when brother Omar mentioned the band name during a 2010 conversation at The Full Moon venue. Omar died during 2019 after the band toured and won awards for their documentary. The remaining member continued the band's mission after Omar's death with new lineup changes.

The current bandleader moved away from skinhead culture toward Rastafari beliefs during his teenage years. He discovered reggae music at a Memphis venue called the Complex after hearing artist Mikey Dread perform. The band mixes punk rock with reggae and dub sounds from that spiritual journey.

Negro Terror wants young black listeners to learn about rock music's African American roots. The bandleader grew up knowing that the first rock band on MTV came from Memphis. He wants youth to feel pride about the genre and keep creating new sounds within it.

The band plans to release more music during 2025 that educates listeners through social media. They hope to perform at festivals like Cali Roots and Red Rocks. The group wants to work with artists such as Bodycount and Living Color.
