Posted by LetsLoop on August 3, 2017, 7:06 am Grounds For Resentment (feat. Olly Alexander from @Years & Years) is the latest track to surface from @Bloc Party frontman @Kele Okereke's upcoming third solo album, Fatherland, which is out October 6th and follows up 2014's Trick.Here's what Kele had to say about his latest single:
"I remember reading something that [Olly] wrote about the use of pronouns in pop music for gay artists that I thought that was very perceptive and intelligent – that the use of pronouns was the last frontier for gay artists. There are lots of gay acts that avoid using the term he when singing about same sex desire. It will just be a neutral term, whereas Olly understands from what I read that there is a long way to go for gay musicians in being able to describe love and desire authentically. So I was very happy to sing a romantic duet with him on my album, because I couldn’t think of a precedent of any out gay musicians singing a love song to one another without having to hide behind codes."
Fatherland will also feature the recently released Streets Been Talkin' and the excellent lead single Yemaya.
If you're new to Kele's solo work and want to hear more, we highly recommend listening to Tenderoni, Everything You Wanted, Doubt, Closer and First Impressions.
