NEW VINYL LP ON SONY 2017

2 X 180 GRAM VINYL.

Solana Rowe’s proper debut album, due to its title, invites comparisons to Janet Jackson’s 1986 personal and commercial breakout. It’s an individual statement, however, one distinct from even the contemporary likes of Kehlani’s SweetSexySavage. Placed beside only Z, its three-year-old prelude, Ctrl is the work of a considerably less-inhibited songwriter. Rowe likewise truly fronts these frank songs that wield power as they lament lonesomeness, insecurity, and inertia. She neither projects slight wisps nor obscures herself inside swirling synthesizers, yet she oversells not a single thought.
