825) Aaron Frazer - Bad News

Mostly famous for his role as drummer and co-vocalist in the classic soul project Durand Jones & The Indications, Frazer has released his debut solo album "Introducing..." earlier this month. This track off of it was the first to have its own music video and a very good one at that. The video sees the artist singing in the street alongside the impressive Nicole Javanna Johnson while she dances around expressively. The album was produced by The Black Keys' lead vocalist, Dan Auerbach, who Frazer says helped him get outside his "old school soul" box and be more forward-thinking in his music-making approach. Regarding the meaning of the piece's lyrics, Aaron told Dead Oceans: "I wrote "Bad News" last November, originally as a song about climate change - a threat that feels so big, so existential, that sometimes it's easier for us to just look away. But today, I think it's taken on a new meaning. It's become a song that gives voice to the things everybody is experiencing right now: isolation, and figuring out how to get through our daily life in the face of relentless bad news".
