I may be a little biased when it comes to putting “The Glorious Five” in my top 5, but I f**k with it hard because I was a major Kanye West fan back in the day, and this s**t reminds me of some classic Kanye! Everything from this song’s soulful beat to its infectious hook is classic Louis Vuitton don to me. Still young, after some years, even as the heavy, heavy weight of the world seems to grow day by day.Where the song deviates is in it’s lyrical content, as Logic touches on things like his relationship with his verbally abusive father, humility, and his checkered childhood on his verses. Hips jerking, feet slipping, brain firing in Catherine Wheel sparks of joy and empathy. “Make sense of it after.”įor Young Fathers, there’s no dress code required. “You let the demons out and deal with it,” reckons Kayus of the album. Speaking about the title, the band write that Heavy Heavy could be a mood, or it could describe the smoothed granite of bass that supports the sound… or it could be a nod to the natural progression of boys to grown men and the inevitable toll of living, a joyous burden, relationships, family, the natural momentum of a group that has been around long enough to witness massive changes.
Accompanied by a video created by 23 year old Austrian-Nigerian artist and filmmaker David Uzochukwu, the track demonstrates the ambitious ideas that lay at the heart of this highly-anticipated record. It’s the second track to be released from the album (following standalone single “Geronimo” in July) and brims with everything fans have come to love from a group known for their multi-genre versatility - kinetic rhythms, controlled chaos and unbridled soul. To mark news of the album and the tour, Young Fathers today release a brand new single, “I Saw”. The tour will include shows at the Roundhouse in London, Elysee Montmartre in Paris, Paradiso in Amsterdam, O2 Academy in Leeds and Glasgow, Olympia in Dublin, Astra in Berlin, Albert Hall in Manchester, Trix in Antwerp, Mojo Club in Hamburg and more (full dates below)
The 10-track project signals a renewed back-to-basics approach, just the three of them in their basement studio, some equipment and microphones: everything always plugged in, everything always in reach.Īlongside the announcement ‘Heavy Heavy’, Young Fathers will make their much anticipated return to stages across the UK and Europe beginning February 2023 - known for their electrifying performances, their shows are a blur of ritualistic frenzy, marking them as one of the most must-see acts operating today. Set for release on February 3rd 2023 via Ninja Tune, it’s the group’s fourth album and their first since 2018’s album Cocoa Sugar.
Hastings - announce details of their brand new album Heavy Heavy. Young Fathers - Alloysious Massaquoi, Kayus Bankole and G.
