Among her list of accomplishments is an impressive catalog of music-including the Polaris Prize-nominated Part-Time Woman with Queer Songbook Orchestra (2017) and Angry by her band Too Attached (2018), which CBC described as one of \"Canada's most incisive, radical and galvanizing albums.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter twenty years of releasing music independently, Vivek will make her label debut with \u003ci\u003eBaby, You're Projecting\u003c\/i\u003e which, unlike her previous musical offerings, which were more sonically compartmentalised, Vivek endeavoured to create a genre-fluid album. Inspired by great female-fronted pop records (including janet. by Janet Jackson, Sheryl Crow's self-titled album, and Lemonade by Beyoncé), \u003ci\u003eBaby, You're Projecting\u003c\/i\u003e holds the breadth of Vivek's sound and style in one space. Ranging from house to hip hop to country, Vivek's singular voice and songwriting holds the record together and resonates in every genre. Produced by and co-written with frequent collaborator James Bunton (Donovan Woods, Ohbijou), Baby, You're Projecting is a break-up album that explores Vivek's tenuous relationships with men. The danceable \"Good Luck (You're Fucked)\" is an empowering pop anthem for women and femmes clapping back at male fragility. The swelling ballad \"He Loves Me Until He Hates Me\" exposes the underbelly of male affection against a backdrop of sharp strings by Drew Jurecka (Dua Lipa, Rose Cousins). And the twangy \"Colonizer\" circles around the unique complexity of being in an interracial relationship. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mint","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50527264309579,"sku":"2020204","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/a1150412456_10_a52d0da0_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728052906"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/collections\/test_5bfa0494_thumbnail_4096_078fb7ff-6ac1-4977-ada2-1eb7565973fa.jpg?v=1728052886","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/collections\/vivek-shraya.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
