Solange Talks Upcoming Album & Saint Records Label: Exclusive
By Andrew Hampp, N.Y. | July 31, 2013 11:59 AM EDT
Solange may have canceled the remaining dates of her European tour last week,
but that hasn’t made her any less busy. The 27-year old singer is prepping a
new album, a move to New Orleans and a new label with Sony, Saint Records,
that will start yielding projects featuring herself as well as other artists.
During an onstage interview with Miss Info that followed her performance in a
Brooklyn Laundromat for Fader and vitaminwater’s Uncapped series July 29,
Solange revealed that she has begun writing and laying down demos for her
forthcoming fourth album. Where 2012’s "True" EP was a collaboration with
Dev Hynes, a.k.a. Blood Orange, the new project will likely see her working
with a variety of artists from the indie and electronic scene. Early
songwriting partners for the album include Sampha (SBTRKT, Jessie Ware), Dave
Longstreith (The Dirty Projectors) and Patrick Wimberly (Chairlift), and the
recording will be split between Long Island City and New Orleans.
And in a later interview with Billboard that same night, Solange shared even
more details about her new venture with Sony, her soon-to-be second home and
the importance of deadlines.
You just shared some new details about your next album, which will be
released through your own label, Saint Records, distributed through Sony. We
had originally heard you might be releasing music through Columbia – what’s
the story?
I mean, it’s distributing through Sony, bottom line, and I was just
incredibly excited to have a space and a house for all my new projects. And I
have so many ideas for other projects. And I think it’s just really
incredible to be a young woman and I feel so blessed and lucky and honored to
be able to be in a position to do that. It’s been a passion of mine to do
that forever, I grew up seeing how the music business works from very
different sides and I’ve conjured up a lot of knowledge to apply.
Is the idea with Saint that you’ll be signing other artists as well?
For sure. I’m actually working on the first project, which will involve me
in some kind of way but it will absolutely involve other artists as well. I
have so many friends who’ve put me on to so much great music. And we just
have that endless conversation about new upcoming great artists that might
not get the exposure they deserve on an independent level. There’s so much
magic happening right now on an independent level and I’m excited to be
attached to that.
You’re about to move to New Orleans. Do you plan to immerse yourself in the
music scene there as well?
I grew up in Houston, which is a four-hour drive from New Orleans. I spent
many a day on Frenchmen Street, discovering new musicians. But I think in
terms of this record, the sonic is gonna be established this year and the
rest of the summer. And recording there I’m sure will seep into the record
in some kind of way. But I’m gonna be back and forth between here and New
Orleans, and there’s obviously so much great music happening here as well.
You took a long hiatus between albums before releasing "True." Do you have a
timeframe yet for this next album?
I’m actually trying to give myself a deadline this time around. One of the
pros of being independent is having that space and that time. But it’s also
a major con when you don’t set aside a deadline and keep going and keep
going. When you have a goal in mind you definitely stay motivated. I’m
trying to stay motivated because I know it took four years before my last
record came out. [laughs] That is not happening — it's gonna come out next
year.
Is there a person or a team at Sony that you’re reporting to as part of your
new label?
No. Absolutely not. The infrastructure of this record in terms of the
creative process is absolutely the same as the last one. I’m making the
music that I want to make. I’m in my own space and it’s just incredible to
be able to continue to do that.
