Rapper Khaligraph Jones released his sophomore album INVISIBLE CURRENCY on Monday 7th, March 2022.
The much-anticipated masterpiece is a timely follow up to his 2018 debut album TESTIMONY 1990.
Majorly self-produced, the album was extensively recorded from 2018 across multiple locations in Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana and the US as Khaligraph toured Africa, UAE and the US after registering unprecedented post debut album success while tapping rising Kenya producers Vince on The Beat, Ares 66, WuodOmollo to help craft the rich album.
Speaking on the album Khaligraph said the album is a testimony for him.
"This is a life changing album for me and my fans. It’s a personal testimony of my challenges and an honest attempt at the representation of my personal growth and development over the years. I hope the project inspires a lot and transforms lives."
The 17-track project is an engrossing exploration of Khaligraph’s sonic evolution, personal growth and artistic development drawn from a long momentous career.
The album title, INVISIBLE CURRENCY perfectly exemplifies his current status as a bonafide African star coming of age while enjoying the perksat his peak through continued dominance.
The project was released alongside ‘Hiroshima’ music video featuring high-flying US Hip Hop star DAX.
The powerful and gritty collaboration shot between arid Kenya and countryside US further establishes Khaligraph as one the most prolific, lyrical and most sought after voices in African Hip Hop rooted in cinematic storytelling and unmatched flow.
The multilingual, genre-bending album stays true to Khaligraph’s style and sound heavily grounded in HipHop but also experimental in spirit with a more revealing side espoused in a series of dynamic compositions and collaborations across an array of sounds.
From Afro Pop jam ‘Ateri Dala’ featuring Prince Indah, RnB rich ‘How We Do’ featuring Xenia Manasseh, Genge and Kapuka tribute in ‘Kamnyweso’ with Mejja to Rhumba tinged ’Wanguvu’ featuring Ali Kiba, Khaligraph delivers a compact, melodic and no holds barred project tailored for any occasion or season.
