The post Jon Batiste Announces New Album World Music Radio Featuring Lil Wayne and Lana Del Rey appeared first on Consequence.
Jon Batiste has announced his new album, World Music Radio, out August 18th via Verve Records/Interscope Records. As a preview, he’s also shared the first single, “Calling Your Name.”
Clocking in at 21 tracks, World Music Radio features a wide array of guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Lana Del Rey, Kenny G, JID, K-pop group NewJeans, and many more. In a statement, Batiste said he created the album with “a feeling of liberation in my life and a renewed sense of exploration of my personhood, my craft and of the world around me unlike anything I had ever felt before.”
Pre-orders are ongoing. Scroll onwards for the artwork and full tracklist.
“Calling Your Name” is an optimistic slice of catchy pop music as Batiste sings, “I would get so lost in the feelings, head in the clouds/ I would get so caught up in believin’ somethin’ about/ But you feel so good in my spirit, it’s all over me now.” Stream it below.
Earlier this month, Batiste shared “Be Who You Are,” a collaboration with JID, NewJeans, and Camilo. The album is his follow-up to WE ARE, which we named one of the top albums of 2021 ahead of its Album of the Year win at the 2022 Grammys.
