The | | intention behind this long-player is clearly stated all throughout | | the 12 tracks: releasing the angst of the current climate we are | | facing through collective artistic means. | | | | "I made all the music really late at night after my day-to-day work, | | as an escape from "what I normally do". Paired with the everyday | | struggles of being an artist, it was very stressful hearing about so | | many deaths - especially due to law enforcement. Making "For My | | Sanity" was how I was trying to find peace of mind every night so I | | could go to sleep" says 14KT. | | | | The themes of the album sway gracefully from personal philosophies | | and creeds, to burning social matters and celebration of the | | importance of family and genuine, fruitful friendships. If we were to | | classify this in a genre, we would say For My Sanity is a jazz | | record, at its core, but elements of hip-hop, soul, R'n'B and latin | | music are easily recognisable and at home on the album. | | | | "I challenged myself to create a jazz album, primarily using Native | | Instruments Maschine. 85% of the album was created on there. The rest | | was my amazing friends and myself playing instruments." KT continues. | | | | "For My Sanity" features an array of fellow visionaries - Jimetta | | Rose, Masego, Mark de Clive-Lowe, Muhsinah, James Poyser, Stro | | Elliot, Rasheeda Ali, Farnell Newton, Kris Johnson, Magestik Legend - | | who help deliver the message and further relay the essence of what | | the album stands for. | | | | The journey of this release is a story in itself, as the primary | | thought wasn't for it to be released, especially with a label. But | | when this landed in DJ Gilla's inbox, and then shared with the First | | Word team, it was clear that the music was right up First Word's | | street. | | | | IAMABEENIE is a name that denotes a series of jazz-Influenced albums | | 14KT is currently working on. | | | | | | YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS SHIT IF YOU LIKE IT RIGHT?! | | | | | | . . | | |\/\/| | | |____| | |------------------------------=---=-======-=---=-------------------------| |===/\===============================SOUNDz==========================/\===| '--/__\--------------------------=-2013-2019-=----------------------/__\--'
