akua naru's latest feat is an album entitled, "all about love: new visions", inspired by and an ode to Black feminist icon bell hooks and her titanic classic text of the same name, in which hooks examines society and its ideals of love. To honor and take up hooks' understanding of "love as a practice of freedom", especially in these times, naru's forthcoming offering is a new vision for her love songs: recorded live by a large band ensemble supported by the highly decorated classical orchestra, Ensemble Resonanz.
naru reimagines old hits like the people's favorite, "Poetry: How Does It Feel?" and "Seraphim", alongside deep cuts like "(Love) Right Now", "Joy", and "Runaway". An exploration of the various iterations of love, not only contained within the romantic, naru also includes new tracks that among other things celebrate the enduring power of unconditional love through the tenderness of motherhood. This album intends to provide a sonic balm to listeners. A necessary emotional-audio experience for those who understand the fortifying power of love and its urgency, especially during dark and perilous times.
Her current project, entitled “all about love: new visions”, a collaborative LP with her own band and the renowned string orchestra Ensemble Resonanz, is set for Spring 2024 release. The album also features Japanes Jazz musician Takuya Kuroda and spoken word performances by Cornel West and Tricia Rose.
