Kehlani Just Wants To Be Happy After Grappling With Darkness. New Album ‘sweetsexysavage’ Leads The Way

... of the pitfalls of fame. After darkness clouded her breakout year, the singer is emerging with her bright label debut "Sweet Sexy Savage.". Following the release of 2015's “You Should Be Here," Kehlani was R&B’s hottest upstart. But as her star rose, she got a glimpse of the pitfalls of fame. After darkness clouded her breakout year, the singer is emerging with her bright label debut "Sweet Sexy Savage." (Kirk Mc Koy / Los Angeles Times). Gerrick D. Kennedy Contact Reporter.

Last week Kehlani was in the midst of prepping her first world tour, a 60-city trek that will also include a stop at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The fast-rising R&B-pop songwriter born Kehlani Parrish was days before the release of her long-awaited major-label debut, “Sweet Sexy Savage,” an album out today on Atlantic Records. Yet the following morning, reality set in. Her album was dropping just as the country was transitioning from President Barack Obama to Donald Trump , the latter arguably one of the most polarizing candidates in American history. “I woke up and thought, ‘Oh, ...

... her style. If this had been released back in Brandy’s heyday when the internet was just beginning to become a thing, Kehlani would be blowing it up. Instead she’s competing with a political apocalypse and a million other distractions, and so she spreads herself a little too thin over SSS’s 17 songs (19 on the deluxe, which includes her Suicide Squad hit “Gangsta”).

Yet haunting highlights like “Piece of Mind” and “Everything Is Yours” prove that beneath SSS’s padding, there’s a succinct, sassy, and sincere album waiting to be slimmed down to Kehlani’s own soul-searching essence.

Laced with 19 tracks in total (2 bonus), the album is being lead by the singles “Distraction,” “CRZY,” “Undercover,” & “Advice,” meanwhile it’ll contain other song titles like “Personal,” “Escape,” & “In My Feelings,” which presumably is about Kehlani's life. “As women we are told that we cannot be multi layered,” she wrote in a message to fans. “We are put in boxes. we can’t be all the above. reclaim yourself…The name is supposed to challenge you. The name is supposed to make you question… only to let u find your own answer. But really, it’s me reclaiming myself. Me accepting myself. Good & bad. All the way around. It’s me.

Talking about the album, Ricky Bell told Music Choice: “Us as performers, as writers, as producers we’re a lot better now [compared to their debut album]. Song for song, if you match “Don’t Go” up with “Do Me” or whatever, on a performance side, we’re a whole lot better. We are mindful of where our fans are and where we are, it’s age appropriate. The grooves are mad sexy, the melodies are catchy, subject matters are just right up your alley of whatever is going on today and with relationships. Besides ‘Poison’ it’s our best work.”.
