Jordan Rakei announces third album with sleek lead single "Say Something"
Jordan Rakei has announced his third album Origin, as well as revealing the sleek lead single, "Say Something".
"Say Something" is "about speaking up for what you believe in," says Rakei, and is the first single since February's vibrant "Mind's Eye", which will also feature on his upcoming Origin record alongside last year's "Wildfire".
Origin follows 2017's Wallflower, and is largely inspired by Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror, Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. Rakei says of the record, "I’m worried that we’re losing a sense of connection."
Between releasing his own material, Rakei featured on Loyle Carner's "Ottolenghi" single, and Rosie Lowe's "Birdsong".
