slowthai performing on Day at Leeds Festival 2021 (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
The penultimate gallery from Live4ever’s coverage of Leeds Festival 2021 features Sunday’s Main Stage West performer slowthai.
slowthai was at Leeds Festival after the release of his second record TYRON; part confession, part reaction to his life since the release of debut album Nothing Great About Britain.
“‘terms’ is an examination of the vagaries of making it at R&B pace with a guesting Denzel Curry and Dominic Fike, while ‘feel away’ – with less likely partners James Blake and Mount Kimbie – soulfully grapples with empathy and the spaces in between,” our review reads.
“We’re told that this is a lockdown record, even given the upfront and highly personal nature of the contents. It’s been a period in which most of us have failed to live our lives in any meaningful way, and on ‘nhs’ the guilt of taking everything for granted spills over into heartfelt words dedicated to those who pick up our pieces without judgement.”
