Listen: Blood Orange - 'Charcoal Baby'

Watch the video for 'Charcoal Baby' - latest single from forthcoming new album Negro Swan.

A week following the announcement of his forthcoming new album Negro Swan, Blood Orange has dropped a new single 'Charcoal Baby' with an accompanying video. Negro Swan is due for release 24th August via Domino, in a press release Hynes discusses his latest work: “My newest album is an exploration into my own and many types of black depression, an honest look at the corners of black existence, and the ongoing anxieties of queer/people of colour. A reach back into childhood and modern traumas, and the things we do to get through it all. The underlying thread through each piece on the album is the idea of HOPE, and the lights we can try to turn on within ourselves with a hopefully positive outcome of helping others out of their darkness.” Check out the video below.
