Oklou links up with Bladee on new single, "take me by the hand"
French vocalist, producer and composer Oklou has shared new single “take me by the hand” featuring Swedish rapper Bladee.
"I wanted this song to sound like something ethereal but also very earthy – Bladee’s voice is helping to keep the feet on the ground” explains Oklou.
Oklou will be performing a string of North American and European tour dates in February and March. The tour begins in Europe with sold-out stops including Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and London and then continues on to North America with dates in Toronto, Montreal, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.
The new single follows several recently released tracks including “choke enough,” “harvest sky,” featuring Bay Area artist underscores, alongside its companion “obvious”, and “family and friends,” which came alongside a Gil Gharbi directed music video.
As a whole Oklou speaks about the forthcoming album sharing, “I see it as built on a permanent conversation between a life anchored in reality and another in fantasy. I can’t imagine a life without daydreaming, without spending time appreciating beauty, but I need to be anchored to the ground to continue paying attention to what’s happening around me.”
choke enough is set for release on 7 February 2025 via True Panther. Tickets for Oklou's tour are available now.
