Rihla (Vinyl)

Product Description

Mansur Brown shares his truest, most honest album to date. Rihla is the Arabic word for a journey but can also refer to writings about that journey.

Embarking on this voyage, you’re hearing an artist in full flow – bucking trends and freely making music that isn’t confined by genre. This new chapter sees Mansur introduce his vocals for the first time, alongside a heavier rock undercurrent, whilst maintaining the melodic essence you’d expect from Mansur.

There are echoes of electronic and r&b, with sci-fi-esque synthesisers that beam vivid imagery. Guitar remains at the centre of Mansur’s music, but it’s by no means the only component.

Straddling the roles of songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist, this spirit of self-sufficiency cuts through everything Mansur does. Previous collaborations include Yussef Dayes, Joy Orbison, and Little Simz.
