Genesis Owusu Details New Album ‘STRUGGLER’

New song 'LEAVING THE LIGHT' is out now...

Genesis Owusu has shared plans for his new album ‘STRUGGLER’.

The genre-breaking artist made his bow in 2021, sharing remarkable full length project ‘Smiling With No Teeth’ to widespread acclaim. At the time, Clash went deep with the Ghanaian-Australian artist, unpicking his roots in our Foundations series.

The auteur makes his next step with ‘STRUGGLER’, which is slated to land on August 18th via OURNESS / AWAL. Sessions took place in the United States and Australia, with Genesis working alongside original producers, Andrew Klippel and Dave Hammer, and guests Jason Evigan, Mikey Freedom Hart, and Sol Was.

Genesis comments…

“THE STRUGGLER RUNS THROUGH AN ABSURD WORLD WITH NO ‘WHERE’ OR ‘WHY’ AT HAND. JUST AN INSTINCTUAL INNER RHYTHM, YELLING AT THEM TO SURVIVE THE PESTILENCE AND LIGHTING BOLTS COMING FROM ABOVE. A ROACH JUST KEEPS ROACHING.” 

New single ‘LEAVING THE LIGHT’ showcases his cross-genre pollinations, the multi-faceted vibrations held together by the purity of his voice.

Tune in now.

Catch Genesis Owusu at London’s Heaven on November 15th.
