Kwabs 'Perfect Ruin'

Watch Ghanaian/UK-based crooner Kwabs 'Perfect Ruin,' a scaled back showcase of beauty in the raw.

Kwabs 'Perfect Ruin'


Ghanaian/UK-based wonderman Kwabs' upcoming full length via Atlantic Records is easily becoming one of our most anticipated release of 2014. We're steel reeling from his gospel-strength battle with demons in "Last Stand," which has garnered 100k+ listens since its release a week ago. This latest offering scales back the foreboding production to showcase bare beauty. On "Perfect Ruin" Kwabs induces James Blake shivers in the raw set to minimally haunting keys. Watch the piano performance and catch up on "Last Stand" below.  Here's to hoping these weekly Kwabs deliverances keep on coming.
