The record, titled Reason To Smile<\/em>, will be his occasion to \u201cdo it to the scale and ambition of what (he) speaks<\/em>\u201d. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With four solid EPs and an impressive number of singles, British-Ghanaian artist Kojey Radical<\/a> has grown into one of the most exciting artists of recent years. His last EP Cashmere Tears<\/a><\/em> was an intimate deep dive and now, with his recently announced debut long format, we expect to get an even wider angle into the artist\u2019s life and career. Speaking about the upcoming record, Kojey says: \u201cThis is the first time I\u2019ve done it to the scale and ambition of what I speak. Previously it\u2019s been \u2018I\u2019m warming, I\u2019m warming, I\u2019m warming up.\u2019 But I\u2019m warm now \u2014 put me in the game<\/em>\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Titled Reason To Smile<\/em>, the album will include the singles \u201cWar Outside\u201d (featuring Lex Amor<\/a>) and \u201cGangsta\u201d, to be discovered below. It will also feature guest appearances from Kelis, Tiana Major9, Masego, Ego Ella May, Sha\u00e9 Universe, Cashh, Lex Amor, and more, including the London-based artist\u2019s own mother.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
