BLK ODYSSY ANNOUNCES ALBUM & SHARES NEW SINGLE FT KIRBY
Austin’s own BLK ODYSSY announces his new album, DIAMONDS & FREAKS, out June 9th via EMPIRE. Alongside the announcement, is a new single “You Gotta Man,” featuring renowned songwriter and artist in her own right Kirby on one of the climactic statements of the four-part record introducing listeners to the central themes of self-identity, fame, and carnal desire throughout DIAMONDS & FREAKS. The new single follows the two previously-released tone-setting tracks that offered early looks at the album’s direction, “ODEE” and “Honeysuckle Neckbone,” which features the P-Funk legend Bootsy Collins.
DIAMONDS & FREAKS is a concept album that tells the story of a man blinded by his own lust. Presented as an erotic novel by musician and poet Keisha Plum with narration by bassist Bootsy Collins, both of whom offer a stark contradiction to the vivid and edgy content of the songs. Composed of four distinct chapters, DIAMONDS & FREAKS is a neo-soul journal, chronicling BLK’s adjustment to finding success and his relationship with sex. Written and recorded while on tour and in the midst of a tumultuous time struggling with the health of a family member, the album sways like a moral tug-of-war between success and succumbing to various forms of addiction, and the spirit of religion, faith, family and loss that pulls him back to reality.
