After putting down the saxophone, the instrument he has become synonymous with, Shabaka returns with his first full-length album under his own name. Expanding on the meditative 2022 EP Afrikan Culture, Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace is a deeply moving suite of primarily instrumental music. The listening experience is reflective and contemplative, with passages flowing seamlessly from one musical idea to the next, rewarding deep attention with recurring motifs and thematic throughlines. Shabaka showcases his artistry on the flute and collaborates with an esteemed group of artists including Andre 3000, Lianne La Havas, Moses Sumney, and Floating Points to create a rich, all-encompassing aural landscape.
