Must Download: Solange “True”

Better late then never, I just hopped on the Solange Knowles Soul Train. This time around Solange has teamed up with Blood Orange’s Devonte Hynes for a 7 song EP “True,” that debuted last Fall. Together the two produced and co wrote an truly authentic album, finally finding Solange’s true voice and identity. Shying away from a major label and onto emerging Indie Brooklyn label ‘Terrible’ Records (which co-owned by Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear) certainly worked in her favor. Hynes and Solange’s music collaboration is a success with an addictive Indie electro pop record. “True” has a hint of 80’s pop with electronic drums and a completely new sound.

Song favorites: “Losing You,” “Some Things Never Seem to Fucking Work,” “Locked in Closets” and “Bad Girls.” Available on iTunes for $7.00. Click “Continue Reading” to listen. -Taryn Cox for THE WIFE
