Kelela Raven

Standard Black Vinyl 2LP

Raven is the long-anticipated sequel to Kelela's impeccable studio debut. Kelela emerges from the tides of her higher self's oceanic orbit with a fifteen-track, continuous play LP exploring autonomy, belonging and self-renewal as healing. With all the sonic, visual, and physical sensualism that magnetized her early core fanbase, Kelela's new album finds her more certain and at ease with her creative fluidity's exceptionality, no matter how high or wide its waves. "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," Kelela says. "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." Standard black vinyl 2LP-set with gatefold outer sleeve and printed inner.
