Chasing

Chasing is Ady Suleiman's sophomore album and follows on from Memories and the Thoughts & Moments Vol 1 Mixtape - two projects that built the solid foundation for his position in the R&B realm. It's an intercontinental affair, written, recorded and mastered across London and Zanzibar - where he took the opportunity to connect with his familial roots. Chasing is an introspective, personal, labour of love that features an authentic blend of R&B, neo- soul and reggae, topped off with a sprinkling of jazz. Speaking on the project, Ady explains: "Chasing is a collection of songs I wrote in my late 20s. I found myself searching for clarity and navigating uncertainty - in my mental health, relationships, identity and the world around me." As a whole, Chasing is a sunshine-bright project that's melodic and full-bodied, whilst also being deeply comforting. Ady bares his soul with the listener, in a way that avoids being sappy and melodramatic. His decision to take a breather didn't hinder his musical ability, it's given his voice time to develop a rich, mature tinge and if anything it's made his final product even stronger. He's without a doubt reinserted himself into the R&B conversation with practiced ease.
