Singer Solange has announced her new album, A Seat At The Table, on Tuesday, calling it “a project on identity, empowerment, independence, grief and healing.” Now the follow-up to 2012’s excellent True EP is here, accompanied by a book, and featuring spots from Kelela, Q-Tip, Kelly Rowland, Lil Wayne, Dev Hynes, Sampha, Moses Sumney, The-Dream, BJ the Chicago Kid, Sean Nicholas Savage and Tweet.
On A Seat At The Table, Solange is eschewing that stereotype ever so gracefully.
A Seat isn’t just a good political album, a good activism album, a good R&B album, a good indie album, or a good black album. It’s all of those things, so it’s a great album. Each of those elements make it feel like a humongous moment, but it never gets too hefty. Despite everything it encompasses lyrically, aurally, culturally, and politically, the album is well-paced and agile. Solange deserves her seat at the table with her generation’s other awesome, unapologetically black albums like To Pimp A Butterfly, Black Messiah, and Lemonade.
