Raw, poignant, and perfectly human, Canadian artist Emanuel delivers his deeply personal debut album Alt Therapy. This affecting 12-track opus follows the album’s sibling EPs Alt Therapy Session 1: Disillusion and Alt Therapy Session 2: Transformation. While Emanuel’s musical depth runs deep thanks to the LPs yawning piano riffs, barebones production style, and poetic flow, Alt Therapy is as musically sound as it is intellectually rousing. In the spaces between his R&B prowess and soulful vocal chops listeners experience pain, hope, dispair, and triumph. A celebration and ode to all things Black and beautiful, this narrative album will echo through time.
