{"product_id":"crash-1","title":"Crash","description":"\u003cp\u003eCrash is Kehlani’s fourth studio album, a 13‑track project that fuses their signature R\u0026amp;B with club‑ready beats, Afrobeats‑tinged grooves, and alt‑pop textures. Released in June 2024 and featuring guests like Jill Scott, Young Miko, and Omah Lay, it arrives as a more kinetic, extroverted counterpart to the airy introspection of Blue Water Road, built around high‑energy singles such as “After Hours,” “Next 2 U,” and the title track “Crash.” Across songs like “GrooveTheory,” “8,” and “Sucia,” Kehlani and a stacked producer team craft a sound that feels sweaty and live‑wire, layering bass‑heavy production, glossy synths, and melodic hooks that nod to classic R\u0026amp;B while pushing into more experimental territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLyrically, the album presents Kehlani as an imperfect but self‑aware main character navigating desire, bad decisions, and emotional risk, inviting listeners to watch the chaos unfold rather than disguising it. Critics describe Crash as a “collision” of moods and styles, weaving dystopian unease and heartbreak (on tracks like “Chapel” and “Lose My Wife”) with lusty, confident cuts like “Vegas” and “8,” creating a narrative about finding thrill and solace amid personal and societal fracture. The result is a vibrant and restless record that reaffirms Kehlani’s strengths—emotional directness, melodic instinct, and queer intimacy—while also showcasing their willingness to bend R\u0026amp;B’s boundaries in pursuit of something bolder and more unpredictable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ Album","offer_id":53262756249914,"sku":"37494","price":13.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Apple Red Vinyl","offer_id":53262756315450,"sku":"37495","price":39.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Indie Excl.
