One of the most exciting artists out there, Kelela is announcing her highly anticipated sophomore album titled “Raven”. The new record will included the previous singles “Washed Away” and “Happy Ending”. Together with the album announcement Kelela is also sharing a brand new single “On The Run”.
On her new single “On The Run”, Kelela’s soothing vocals once again shine against a brilliant production by Yo van Lenz, Kaytranada, and Bambii. The song has a nostalgic touch to it and is bringing us straight back to those early 00s sounds. Kelela is truly killing with all these new tracks and we are extremely excited to hear all the songs in context of “Raven”. About the upcoming record she says:
“I started this process from the feeling of isolation and alienation I’ve always had as a black femme in dance music, despite its black origins. Raven is my first breath taken in the dark, an affirmation of black femme perspective in the midst of systemic erasure and the sound of our vulnerability turned to power.”
“On The Run” is out now on all platforms. “Raven” arrives February 10th 2023 via Warp Records.
