Dua Saleh – I SHOULD CALL THEM LP (Inkblot Vinyl) Online Hot Sale

The music of LA-based Sudanese-American artist Dua Saleh (they them) explores the inner self and the world at large. With their long-awaited full-length debut, a collection of R&B-infused electronic indie-pop songs titled I SHOULD CALL THEM, they portray the spiritual power, resilience, and joy of love. Equal parts imaginative and lived-through, it s a statement record only Saleh could make. Now squarely at the helm of their first LP — guests include Ambré, Gallant, serpentwithfeet, and Sid Sriram — Saleh shapes their most vulnerable work to date, an apocalyptic narrative informed by environmental anxieties and their experiences as a lover, holding personal truth and hope amidst chaos. It s important for me to heal by being fully myself, says Saleh, referring to the outsized role identity and gender expression play in their process. I am being honest with myself with this record, this is my story.
