Hope Is a Heavy Thing [Transparent Black Ice LP]

Joy Oladokun – Hope Is a Heavy Thing [Transparent Black Ice LP]

One of today’s most compelling genre-defying voices. A queer Black musician and daughter of Nigerian immigrants, Oladokun has become a vital cultural voice, writing songs that explore identity, faith, mental health, and social justice with honesty and restraint. Those themes remain at the heart of Hope Is A Heavy Thing. Produced by Oladokun with additional contributions from Nigerian producer Spellz and a feature from Nigerian artist Adekunle Gold, the album marks a bold new creative chapter. Available on transparent black ice vinyl.
