Solange steps away from her major label & goes indie. Working with long time collaborator Dev Hynes of Blood Orange and Lightspeed Champion fame, the duo have created a beautiful range of pop not pop tunes. The opening track ‘Losing You’ has gained loads of attention across the spectrum with it’s catchy hook, reflective synth line, and midtempo groove… the video is rad too. Pulling from peers and other taste makers in the New York scene, Dev Hynes sure knows how to write a pop tune and it is no wonder he has written songs for Florence + the Machine, the Chemical Brothers, and Basement Jaxx. Fans of Santigold, Yeah Yeah Yeah’s, Kelly Rowland, and Madonna can easily get with this. The sleeve is a sleek matte red with spot varnishing and free MP3 download.
