Genesis Owusu by Bec Parsons
Genesis Owusu releases his second album this Friday.
Genesis Owusu has shared the video for his third STRUGGLER single Stay Blessed, directed by Claudia Sangiorgi Dalimore and featuring his ‘Roaches’ – fans from Australia who answered an invitation to join the recording in Melbourne – as he’s explained.
7 days before this was shot, I put up an Instagram story asking if anyone was available at this specific time, at this specific place, but most importantly, if they were a baldy / were down to shave and colour their head for me,” “Thank you to the 70 people who flew up, drove down, and skipped work to come mosh with me.
Previously speaking about the album, his follow-up to 2021’s Smiling With No Teeth – Owusu has said:
“The struggler runs through an absurd world with no ‘where’ or ‘why’ at hand. Just an instinctual inner rhythm, yelling at them to survive the pestilence and lighting bolts coming from above. A roach just keeps roaching.”
