Rain nourishes, blesses, and renews. It loves everything it touches. This album is the space between droplets. At the crux of rising fascism, aja monet offers a waking-dream intervention, amid the sinister reality of contemporary events. A prompt to look up at the sky within., the color of rain is an imbrication of familiar genres forged beyond category or definition. as one stride’s through the sequence of poems, each song shifts between musical perceptions of jazz, soul, hip hop, rhythm and blues. surrealism at it’s finest, a marvelous unleashing of the mind. the color of rain reminds us that poetry predates the very blueprints of genre.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is an evolution from the intimate, live-café energy of aja monet’s Grammy-nominated debut album, when the poems do what they do. While she nods at the Black Arts Movement’s legacy and lineage, this sophomore album is a conjure to experiment and explore the interior. If the first album was a gentle altar call, then the second is an impassioned call to bare arms, a definitive guide to choose your weapon, wisely. If the pen is the sword, music sharpens or blunts the blade.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eLive instrumentation anchors the record but it’s spirit\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e surfaces in pre- and post- production with warped sonics, wayward voltas, and delicate investigations. Meshell Ndegecello conducts the illustrious cast of musicians while Justin Brown bolsters the prismatic vision. In true community organizing fashion, aja knows how to bring artists together, recruiting meaningful musical contributions from Burniss Travis, Josh Johnson, Daniel Mintseris, Jermaine Paul, Ambrose Akinmusire and Nico Segal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eaja monet recites poetry with verve and risk. what sets her apart as a poet is her vulnerable immersion in the music. Her vocal delivery is a rare art. she’s not just monotonously reciting words over a stubborn beat. aja’s tone, rhythm, and cadence interacts with music melodically and vice versa. her instincts as a touring bandleader are felt on this record as we bear witness to the mood and meter of her words. They lead these songs by refrain, invocation, or image. At times the urgency of what is said underscores the deliberate breaths of stillness. As we listen intently, we catch glimpses of aja singing throughout the color of rain. It’s a sonic collage of sounds and personas but most importantly—commands presence...\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Aja Monet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : drink sum wtr\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ecat no : DSW029lp\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelease date : 22nd May 2026\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tobira Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48946899026170,"sku":null,"price":4480.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0305\/1637\/9780\/files\/col1_f5ca40f4-785a-412d-bf99-076370174d98.jpg?v=1780190470","url":"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/zh-hant\/products\/aja-monet-the-color-of-rain-2xlp","provider":"Tobira Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
