APRES 5 ANS D'ABSENCE, LE NOUVEL ALBUM TRES ATTENDU DE LA CHANTEUSE/SONGWRITEUSE NIGERIANE AUX 300.000 VENTES Depuis les premiers hits « Jailer » et « Fire on the Mountain », et ses tournées internationales, ASA est devenue une véritable icône dans son propre pays. Ce nouvel album majestueux, réalisé par Marlon B (Juliette Armanet, Benjamin Clementine, -M-'), nous rappelle pourquoi sa voix est si unique et incomparable. Inclus les titres ?The Beginning', ?Good Thing... et ?Murder in the USA' The symbolism is strong: the first song on A'a's album, Murder in the USA, alludes to a crime: "Who's gonna save me now / I shot my lover and I ran away". Catharsis, obviously. But this majestic end to a relationship is also the starting point of the album. "I was in a destructive relationship. I hadn't realized that this person was so toxic. If I continued to fall and fall some more, what would happen'... "In a way, this album is autobiographical. Even though I am not writing about myself, they are my thoughts, including my mistakes". And Lucid, her fourth album, explores the full range of passional emotions, from the gentlest to the harshest and the harshest to detachment. A'a's songs are always inspired by life. Sometimes it comes suddenly, like for Torn: "A friend had posted a photo on which she looked sad. When I sent her a message, she replied: "Now I will be careful who I give my heart to". My best friend was also in a different situation at the time. That day, I was in Paris, with a broken toilet, waiting for the plumber. I wrote the song and recorded the demo, singing out of the window. During the recording of the album, I never found the same emotion when recording in the studio. So, we kept the voice recorded over the roofs of Paris.' We always guessed that Asa was guided more by instinct than cold purity. In 2007, when her first album was released, it was a quiet landslide: a platinum selling album, hundreds of concerts around the world and the album Live in Paris... The stunning story of an unclassifiable revelation that blurs the classic genres, between Europe, Africa and America, between posh soul and intuitive folk, pop and mellow reggae, and cross-border songs. Beautiful Imperfection was released in 2010, Bed of Stone in 2014... She needed time to live life and fill her soul and heart and voice so that once again, on a summer day, a song could surge out and reach the sky. This spontaneity is what Marlon B, the producer of the album wanted to preserve. His studio is absolute perfection. He works in a very relaxed, natural atmosphere.». Surrounding Marlon B, who played and programmed the percussions, the cream of Parisian musicians, virtuoso and precise listeners. And for the song The Beginning, that was in her computer for five years, an appointment with Patrice in Cologne unlocked the situation: "He added a beat that took the song to another level.' The whole album speaks only of love in all its guises - pain, joy, pleasure, closeness... Mischievous love in Until We Try, a call for trust in You and Me and Stay Tonight, My Dear (Where Are You) - "It is a story that happened in India, I transposed it to my Lagos." She explores all these feelings that we all have experienced in our life - madly, drunk with or crushed by love. As always, since she broke out onto the scene, somewhere between a soothing sister and an understanding BFF, singing more about our lives than her own. That is what artists are for.
