    The way she gets emotional when talking about some of the records. That makes me fall in love with her music even more. It's like even if you haven't been through what she's talking about , she makes you feel like that's exactly the way it feels or is going to feel. I wonder how many other artist can articulate the creative process of each track on their album like this. Gotta respect a true song writer.

    We need to put Kelela on like we did with SZA. It's time already.

      henri crousteau but everything after Ctrl was... trash. So no. Kelela is a treasure that we need to ourselves. I don’t wanna lose her like I did sza.

      Elijah Online SZA did it to herself. Kelela has been making consistently great music since her mixtape: she deserves wider recognition now.

      Everything after CTRL was trash? Ctrl is her newest piece of work, we haven't seen what SZA is gonna do next, so what're you even talking about?

  • @KPJAW
    @KPJAW 7 ปีที่แล้ว +343

    This was the best album of 2017 ...I loved the album upon first listen but to hear her speak so passionately about every track makes me appreciate it even more as well as her entire aura as an artist.... TALENT ALWAYS WINS!!!!!

    such an important album in the world and to me personally, i could argue one of the greatest albums of all time. coming back to this video and seeing how connected and affective these songs mean for her and the emotions they bring up, it's just even clearer how much time, energy, and heartbreak went into this album. Kelela you are a treasure!

  • @utadaaah8350
    @utadaaah8350 7 ปีที่แล้ว +117

    Kelela literally has been slowly coming for the top! I love how transparent she is and so freely calls out her references! She's definitely a showstopper. Real Artistry

  • @DustinJames321
    @DustinJames321 7 ปีที่แล้ว +146

    I love how much she’s into Janet. I also got major Aaliyah vibes on some of the tracks. There were some moments on Take Me Apart where I felt like “Man, this sounds like something Aaliyah would have made if she were with us here today.”

    • @lola9827

    She is such a smart writer. The emotions in the lyrics and vocal performance feel so mature.

  • @cyrellroberson9698
    @cyrellroberson9698 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Man "Enough" is the song of her career if you ask me. I can tell she put a lot of herself into it and it definitely comes across in the song.

    when i saw her live in december she teared up before singing "bluff" as well, i remember her telling the crowd how much this song makes her emotional and seeing her acting the same in this video makes me wanna cry so much i'm-

    @milahkay212 7 ปีที่แล้ว +48

    When I first heard Altadena I literally was at work and almost broke down. The song kinda just shook me from all the work I was doing, all the long hours, and I was like yeah... she captured this extremely well.
    Beautiful album!!!!❤

  • @polipoli8479
    @polipoli8479 7 ปีที่แล้ว +65

    I love how she articulates on every single piece of her album. Being very open with how hard the transition from the relationship was and I just love it, you don't always find artists who would take every song from their album and go as far as explaining the musicality and lyrical experience behind it.

  • @chloemccarthy4488

    @Mili189 7 ปีที่แล้ว +290

    I'm sorry but SHE NEEDS TO GET US A LONGER VERSION OF BLUFF. This can not be only an interlude. She played us. I was expecting this song to be longer from the moment she released it in the Dazed docu'.

    • @WeCaredALot
      @WeCaredALot 7 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      ikr?? Bluff is my favorite song on the album, and it's only a minute long.

    • @Playgrl966
      @Playgrl966 7 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      I've been bitter ever since I found out every song on there was literally an interlude.
      But then again, she titled it the interlude but I didn't think she literally meant it 😭😭😭

      EXACTLY I thought we were getting full versions of S.O.S and Bluff because she basically released them last year with the Cieron Maget film

    • @parallelm1nds
      @parallelm1nds 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Bluff is like a stripped down version of the remix Jam City did for Robyn of "Who Do You Love" , so that's the closest thing :)

  • @ravkid09
    @ravkid09 7 ปีที่แล้ว +21

  • @quixotic333
    @quixotic333 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    i love this album so much because of the way the tracks are suited to be bounced between. the whole point is all these stages, the order is personal though. we all find ourselves returning to some feeling in one way or another at some point, feeling like we’re back where we started or where we didn’t want to end up. every step of the journey is different, but there’s similarities that can feel like setbacks and opportunities at the same time. i think that’s beautiful.

    I knew it on OnanOn she was influenced by Björk. I just thought “i wonder if she was inspired by Björk?” And i was right! Lol
    Shes just a genius honestly in the way she makes her music and lyrics. Thats why i love her so much. I love this album its a very awesome album. I want to put it on when im in the car and put it loud.
