Catalog Number: SLANG50538LPsigncrd Color: Purple Format: LP UPC: 4250506847296 We Belong, is the eighth studio album from Sinkane, a band led by multi-instrumentalist Ahmed Gallab. And like much of Sinkane's previous releases, it resists genre. It's pop. It's funk. It's electronic. It blends the gritty punk newness of a 70s and 80s New York with the steady, foundational soul of the rhythms of his native Sudan. Though We Belong comes deep into the catalog of a long career, it also resists stagnation. It moves and travels--through words and eras, through emotion and healing. Gallab calls this album his "love letter to Black music," and each track pulses with the energy of different eras and forms: the gospel-soaked "Everything Is Everything," the dreamy, Quiet Storm-influenced Afro-beats of "Rise Above," the 70s-funk of "We Belong" and its Sly Stone influence, the Stevie Wonder-edged "Another Day"--they tell a story about Black music and Black people.
