This record is my celebration of freedom in creative self-expression. Before the pandemic I could only play the clarinet and saxophone and knew nothing about music production \u2013 or how to play the flute \u2013 so this has been a journey of learning, and a reflection on the music that\u2019s emerged as a result.\u201d The album also features Shabaka rapping for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Pre-order <em>Of The Earth<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/shabaka.ffm.to\/oftheearth\">here<\/a>.
