Wyclef Jean has revealed the details of his new LP.
'Carnival III: The Fall and Rise of a Refugee', his first new album in eight years, features guest appearances by Emeli Sandé, Supah Mario, The Knocks, and Lunch Money Lewis.
The record is due to arrive on September 15 through Legacy Recordings, which coincides with the 20th anniversary of Jean's debut album, 'The Carnival'. Speaking about it, he said:
"My Carnival albums have always been about celebrating music culture from all parts of the world and Carnival III is no different. It's outside the box. There’s genre-bending. There’s new talent on there. Carnival III is more than just an album. It’s a celebration of what I love about music: discovery, diversity and artistry for art’s sake... It's about putting music together that will outlive me and live on for generations to come that is full of emotion, vibration and fun. Get ready."
