Rom Ivan Kurtic with a soulfoul song in context of gypsy culture

[Mortimer]

The song is named "white"

He sings, his mum wants him to marry, on his marriage day, he suffers because he loves another woman, he sings, he suffers because that other woman is not his bride today/wedding day, he says it doesnt matter that the beedsheet would be white [cultural reference: in gypsy culture on the wedding night, the beedsheet has to be red/bloody as evidence that the bride was a virgin, that he sings the beedsheet would be "white but it doesnt matter to him" means she wouldnt be a virgin, and its a cultural reference to this gypsy practice]
