Wrestling - CD

LA-based producer KUCKAs debut album, Wrestling, is a personal and intimate collection of songs - but it is also relatable in it's evocation of universally human themes and experiences. In her own words, I like the idea of someone else hearing the songs and being able to wear them, to transfer the lyrics to their own life.Wrestling is marked by a conscious effort to produce tracks that work as songs (she wrote over fifty pieces before narrowing them down to the eleven here): lyrics are personal and literal, their open emotionality contrasting with the simple but hyper-digital production within which they are embedded. KUCKA has worked alongside a number of high-profile collaborators, producing and singing on tracks with artists as diverse as Flume, A$AP Rocky, Vince Staples, SOPHIE, Fetty Wap and Kendrick Lamar. But as with her previous releases, the album is self-produced.01. Wrestling02. Contemplation03. Drowning04. Ascension05. Afterparty06. Joyride07. Your World08. Sky Brown09. No Good For Me10. Real11.
