The new Blood Orange album is about “race, religion, sex, and sexism.”

Dev Hynes has been teasing out the new Blood Orange full-length Freetown Sound all spring and we now have a small sampling of what to expect, musically, from the record. The album is named for the town in Sierra Leone where his father is from and has been self-described as Hynes’ version of Paul’s Boutique.

His label describes the record as: “Thematically, it is profoundly personal and unapologetically political, touching on issues of race, religion, sex, and sexism” and according to Hynes is about “Being black in England [and] being black in America.”

Watch the collage trailer for the album which is out on July 1 via Domino. It will also be available on a deluxe 2xLP which includes a 10″ featuring ‘Sandra’s Smile’ and ‘Do You See My Skin Through The Flames?’, which he released in 2015.
