Kehlani’s debut album, ‘SweetSexySavage’, may have taken over a year to complete, but the Bay Area songstress is showing it’s near completion by releasing new music off the project.
On the new track which samples Akon’s “Don’t Matter,” Lani Tsunami sings about a forbidden love that “they” don’t want to see, but she’s committed to make a reality.
Lani spoke to Zane Lowe on Beats1 about her delay and the process behind making her somewhat delayed album.
“I was making the album for like a year-and-a-half,” she told Zane Lowe. “It was so annoying. We’d have a date and then we’d make something else and it’s like, ‘This is cool. Let’s do more of this.’ Then we’d make something else and I’d meet another producer I was obsessed with and we’d vibe. It kept getting pushed back.”
‘SweetSexySavage’ is set to be released January 27th. The album will include “Undercover” along with “CRZY,” “Advice,” and “Distraction,” which have all added hype to the long-awaited album. Listen to “Undercover” below.
