kiefer: it's ok b u
Kiefer is, by now, a prominent figure in Los Angeles' diverse independent music scene. Following essential contributions with albums like Kickinit’ Alone (2017), Happysad (2018) or Superbloom (2019), he keeps touching us with his own fusion of Black American music. It’s OK, B U, his latest album on Stones Throw Records, sees him deep diving into his unique artistry and into various facets of jazz, r&b, hip hop, and electronic music, showcasing the depth and richness of his sound.
The album's thematic core revolves around self-acceptance, and Kiefer's approach is both introspective and bold. He shares his desire to unleash his creative spirit, using his skills as a pianist and producer to convey his personal evolution and his current expression. Limited to just 300 copies, It’s OK, B U is available on vinyl, offering a tactile and immersive experience. Mastered by Daddy Kev and presented in a gatefold, reverse board, foil-stamped, and hand-numbered jacket, this release promises to be a captivating auditory and visual journey.
