2009 release of the debut album from culturally conscious singer/songwriter Asa (pronounced Ah-shah), who paints a vivid landscape rich in history and deep in it's influences. Born in Paris but transplanted to Nigeria where she would spend the remainder of her childhood and adolescence, Asa returned to her birthplace in 2004 and immersed herself in the music of the city. The result is a collection of provocative and savvy songs that are as strikingly personal as they are collectively universal.
