In 2022 we brought you... Karolina ‘All Rivers’ ‘All Rivers’ is the Tru Thoughts debut and first solo English-speaking release for renowned songwriter and vocalist, Karolina @karolinamusica. Curating a thoughtful blend of Jazz, Afrobeat and Soul, ‘All Rivers’ is a journey through the space between daydream, fantasy and reality and the emotions that dictate us. The LP follows Karolina’s solo albums and her releases as part of trio, Habanot Nechama. More recently, the songstress has worked with musician, composer, producer, and animator Kutiman and composer, arranger, and producer Adrian Younge on his collaborative projects with A Tribe Called Quest’s Ali Shaheed Muhammad. The album, alongside title track “All Rivers”, take its name from the universal concept appearing across many religions and cultures that “all rivers flow to the sea”, with an added poetic twist. Inspired by the writings of Avoth Yeshurun while working on the album, Karolina became fascinated with the concept that in actuality, “all the rivers go back to the rivers” and that this is the secret to missing people. “I was struck by the idea that water goes missing from the rivers before going back to the rivers. All of this album is that cycle of going back and forth into the waves of emotion.” . . . . . #karolina #allrivers #allriversflowtothesea #soul #jazz #afrobeat #truthoughts #truthoughtsrecords #2022 #albums #albumoftheyear #albumsoftheyear
