Announcing a brand-new album entitled 12 Questions is world-renowned producer, Fraser T Smith.
Due for release on October 23rd, the upcoming album is based on twelve questions posed by Fraser to each collaborator on topics such as faith, freedom, race, gender, wealth, equality and ecology. Among the collaborators on the LP are artists such as Dave, Stormzy, Kano, Ghetts, Kojey Radical, Idris Elba and more.
Speaking on the album, Fraser said: “I made this record not because I could but because I had to – there was no other way to progress. It’s the most ambitious, exciting and terrifying thing I’ve ever done.
“Creatively, it’s a colourful musical playground – the culmination of everything I’ve learned over my career, from 70’s progressive rock to hip hop. Culturally, it’s a celebration of humanity, whilst shining a light on some of the cruel injustices in the world.
“I’m so proud and humbled by the hugely diverse group of collaborators who have spoken their truths on the album. I hope the answers will enlighten the listeners and stir debate”.
The Grammy Award-winning producer is the man behind a number of massive records from big artists such as Stormzy, Adele, Dave and many more so we can only expect huge things from his upcoming LP.
