After dropping three independent albums, two EPs, & a mixtape, LiKWUiD partners up with 2 Hungry Bros. to release her first label effort through HiPNOTT Records, titled ‘Fay Grim‘. Receiving an exclusive stream on OkayPlayer.com last night, the 13 track effort fuses elements of Hip-Hop, future sounds, Afrobeat, jazz, gospel, & spoken word with topics such as race relations, friendships, self-doubt, abortion, & self-acceptance.
Featured appearances on ‘Fay Grim‘ are listed as DJ Evil Dee of Black Moon, label mates Donwill of Tanya Morgan + P.SO the Earth Tone King. As the title suggests, ‘Fay Grim‘ can be an allusion to the “darkness, depression, & ultimately death” or “the light & the despair” one experiences. While the rest of the country is teetering & tottering towards the shadowy end, LiKWUiD’s newest project aims to balance it all out.
The album, ‘Fay Grim‘, is available now via iTunes | Google Play | Spotify | Amazon
