With the release of their third album Cocoa Sugar, Young Fathers (Alloysious Massaquoi, Graham 'G' Hastings and Kayus Bankole) have presented us with something typically unique and exhilarating, but leaner, more muscular and self-assured than ever before.
The record follows on from the group's previous two albums: 2014’s Mercury Prize-winning DEAD and 2015’s White Men Are Black Men Too. Written and recorded throughout 2017 in the band’s basement studio and HQ, Cocoa Sugar sees Young Fathers operating with a newfound clarity and direction, and is without doubt their most confident and complete statement to date.
Release: March 9th, Ninja Tune
