Honour
Alaafia -alternate Cover-
Honour's debut album Alàáfíà is a powerful, genre-blending journey from Lagos to London, weaving together blues, hip-hop, free jazz, ambient, and gospel with Yoruba folklore and Christian mythology. This cinematic release explores life, love, and loss through experimental soundscapes, overdriven beats, and haunting choral elements. Highlights include "When Angels Speak of Love," which draws inspiration from Sun Ra and bell hooks, and "Pistol Poem (Lead Belly)," a lyrical meditation on modern blues. Deeply personal and emotionally charged, Alàáfíà is a must-have for listeners looking to experience a rich blend of culture, history, and sonic innovation.
