Michael Kiwanuka - Kiwanuka (2LP)

Double vinyl LP pressing. 2019 release from the British indie and folk rock singer/songwriter and record producer. Kiwanuka was produced by Danger Mouse and Inflo who previously worked with Kiwanuka on Love & Hate. The last album came from an introspective place and felt like therapy I guess Kiwanuka said in a statement. This one is more about feeling comfortable in who I am and asking what I want to say. Like how could I be bold and challenge myself and the listener? It is about self-acceptance in a more triumphant rather than melancholy way. It s an album that explores what it means to be a human being today. He has been nominated for numerous honors including the Brit Awards MTV Europe Music Awards Mercury Prize BBC Music Awards. In January 2012 he won the BBC s Sound of 2012.
