THE AMERICAN NEGRO 45RPM 2x VINYL LP
The American Negro is an unapologetic critique, produced by Adrian Younge, detailing the systemic and malevolent psychology that afflicts people of color. This project dissects the chemistry behind blind racism, using music as the medium to restore dignity and self-worth to people of color. It should be evident that any examination of black music is an examination of the relationship between black and white America. This relationship has shaped the cultural evolution of the world and its negative roots run deep into our psyche. Featuring various special guests performing over a deeply soulful, elaborate orchestration, The American Negro reinvents the black native tongue through this album, the short film (TAN) and the podcast, Invisible Blackness. All songs written, recorded and produced by Adrian Younge at Linear Labs, the preeminent analog studio of Los Angeles, CA.
