"Broken Silence" is a single by the UK garage/grime act So Solid Crew. It was released on 15 September 2003, and reached number 9 in the UK Singles Chart. The song spoke out against the government prejudice they felt they had faced.

It is the only known top 40 single in the UK to contain a 17-letter word - 'institutionalised', found in the lyric "It's like we're imprisoned in the ghetto and it's getting to me/To the point where I'm feeling institutionalised/Look in my eyes, you'll see pain in it, but who can decide?". The video for the song was shot in Feltham, West London.
