Obongjayar has shared a brand new single, ‘Tinko Tinko (Don’t Play Me For A Fool)’.
The track is taken from debut album ‘Some Nights I Dream Of Doors’, set for release on 13th May, and was given a first play on Clara Amfo’s BBC Radio 1 show earlier this evening (24th March).
Following up on last month’s ‘Try’, the latest preview of ‘Some Nights I Dream Of Doors’ arrives alongside a Milo Blake-directed video.
Speaking about the album’s inception, Obongjayar explains: “This album dives into the idea of opportunity and tries to explore what that means, what lies behind those doors, and asks if we’re ready for it. The pursuit of success, what happens when you achieve it, and what happens if you don’t? What does success mean? The head, the body, and the end of a dream. Opportunity is looking forward, and in that lies the question of time. What is your place in it? To know the future, or to fully be aware of your present, you need to analyse and understand your past. It’s an endless loop that continuously piles on itself”
