Goya Gumbani details forthcoming album, Warlord of the Weejuns featuring Joe Armon-Jones, Yaya Bey and more
South East London-based rapper Goya Gumbani has announced his forthcoming album Warlord of the Weejuns, alongside new single, "FireFly", featuring London-based Swedish soul singer Fatima.
The song marks the second offering from Warlord of the Weejuns, following the previously released “Chase The Sunrise”, which featured Yaya Bey, lojii, and Fatima. The track confronts the raw emotions of a recent breakup, soundtracked by a combination of production contributions from Swarvy, Omari Jazz, Les Lockheart, Zalente, and quickly, quickly.
Threads of affirmation, self-worth, and Black heritage — manifesting knowledge and power from within — run throughout Warlord of the Weejuns. Goya arranged his singular vision with production from Joe Armon-Jones, Swarvy, Franky Bones, Dan Diggers, Alejandro Śanchez, Maxwell Owin, Omari Jazz, Les Lockheart, Zalente and Ghostly labelmate quickly, quickly.
To celebrate the album’s release, Goya will also be hosting two album release shows in New York at MOCADA (Museum of Contemporary African Diasporic Art) on 22 March and London, at Jazz Café on 17 April.
