About this item

Recorded in Stockholm and produced by Family_Time and Maths Time Joy, who produced ‘Best Friend’, the mixtape follows the release of Ady’s critically acclaimed debut album, ‘Memories’ in March 2018. Having worked on his debut album for some time, Ady wanted to release a collection of songs, ahead of writing and recording his second album.

A deft songwriter and a singer with soulful brilliance, Ady Suleiman has a rich era-spanning appreciation of music, and an innate need to turn life experiences into narrative. His timelessly classic yet fresh sound and lyrical distinctiveness has garnered him a broad range of influential fans from both sides of the Atlantic - from Chance the Rapper, Leon Bridges and Joey Bada$$ through to Labrinth, Michael Kiwanuka, Laura Mvula and Lianne Le Havas.

A collection of songs which originated as voice memos on his phone, Ady comments, 'I wanted to make a project that is a bit more free, I originally wanted to do an interludes or outtakes project, but over time it changed form. "Thoughts & Moments Vol 1" is the result.'

STAFF COMMENTS

Millie says: Ady Suleiman teases us with his forthcoming album with a stream of consciousness in the form of a mixtape. Beautiful Hip Hop beats matched with outtakes of voice memos and thoughts make this record a truly personal and soulful piece of music.
