Kid Anansi Releases Eponymous Debut Album on Aquamarine Records - Sept, 23rd

Hot off the heels of an international tour, Kid Anansi is set to release his highly anticipated debut album on September 23rd via Aquamarine Records. The self-titled album, "Kid Anansi," is a groundbreaking blend of spoken word, music, and comedy, capturing the essence of his artistic journey.

The album reflects Kid Anansi's evolution as an artist, showcasing his growing confidence in both his identity and sexuality. Known for his whimsical storytelling, Kid Anansi uses his platform to explore and celebrate the complexities of being British Ghanaian. His work challenges the status quo of what it means to be considered Black, and he aims to empower his community through his art.

Since his standout performance on the BAFTA award-winning first season of "Life & Rhyme" alongside Benjamin Zephaniah in 2020, Kid Anansi has taken his poetry to new heights. His work is deeply inspired by the cultural contradictions he faces-often perceived as "too Black" in some circles and "not Black enough" in others. Through his art, he navigates these dualities with humor and grace, telling stories that bridge the gap between two worlds.

Kid Anansi's storytelling has been described as a unique blend of Zack Fox's sharp wit and the legendary West African griots' timeless wisdom. His chosen name, Anansi, is a nod to the Ghanaian mythological trickster who, in the form of a spider, is the keeper of all stories. Much like the mythical figure, Kid Anansi shares his world through his own distinct lens, offering audiences a glimpse into his lived experiences.

In addition to his solo work, Kid Anansi has graced the stages of renowned festivals such as Glastonbury, Cardiff Poetry Festival, Latitude, Shambala, Sheffield's Tramlines, and Guernsey's Vale Earth Fair. Beyond performances, he dedicates time to leading workshops for children, helping them develop writing and performance skills, while fostering their confidence.

Kid Anansi's debut album is more than just a collection of tracks; it is a statement of identity, resilience, and creativity. His unique voice is set to make waves in the music and spoken word scenes, bringing a fresh perspective to audiences worldwide.
