Joy Denalane keeps the spotlight shining bright on her latest album, Let Yourself Be Loved, with the accompanying visual for “Be Here In The Morning” featuring C.S. Armstrong.
For the black-and-white video, director Henrik Alm follows a radiant Denalane in an open field as she casts her relationship worries to the wind.
Alm also captures glimpses of other beautiful Black humans who are equally as untroubled as Denalane. Armstrong joins his duet partner in the love battlefield as they work through the trivial plight.
Rated R&B profiled the German lady of soul ahead of the release of Let Yourself Be Loved. Denalane said she hopes that listeners feel “embraced” after hearing the new work.
She added, “I want them to identify with the stories. I want them to feel good, and I want them to feel hope.”
Denalane also discussed a handful of tracks from the album, including “Hey Dreamer,” “Top of My Love” and “Wounded Love.”
Further, Denalane explained why she identifies with Frank Ocean, Erykah Badu and Jazmine Sullivan. Read the full interview here.
