PRAISE FOR KELELA

Kelela has a look in her eye, she’s ready to level up. Clattering,
treacherous drums give way to sputtering-then-simmering
synths then that glorious, inquisitive voice.

Herald Sun, ★★★★

It’s seductive and potent and most definitely, “LMK” is enticing as hell.
The AU Review, Single Of The Day “LMK”

A towering achievement of an album.
Stereogum, Album Of The Week

Kelela’s celebration and command of sensitivity and rawness
in her music is both fortifying and revolutionary.

The FADER

In a time where the world seems insanely out of control, there’s power
in tenderness and loving, which is exactly what Kelela is about,
not just in her music but in her life.

Purple Sneakers

A very welcome return from the producer, songwriter, and singer
who looks set to embark on the biggest push of her career.
