Just My Luck - Tomorrow Man

Description

Obongjayar makes his return with a distinct double-single offering; the contagious and dreamlike pop creation "Just My Luck," alongside the steadfast and percussive "Tomorrow Man." Reflecting respectively on the themes of loneliness and laziness, these two singles, both contrasting and coherent, provide an exciting glimpse of what to expect from this next chapter. Obongjayar's upcoming second album, "Paradise Now," is an ambitious and fresh global perspective, with roots grounded in his own world of very diverse influences. It's everything from pop to punk, dance to afrobeat, funk to folk, refracted through an exciting new perspective. "I wanted an album that I could listen to from start to finish at a party." But he still sees it as a Trojan horse. Recorded between London and Los Angeles with British alternative rap pillar Kwes Darko (Pa Salieu, John Glacier) and the Grammy Award-winning production trio Beach Noise (Kendrick Lamar, Baby Keem, Bakar), the record is as complex and vast emotionally as Obongjayar has ever been, even in its contagious candy coating.
