im not sleeping

BLACK FONDU returns with im not sleeping, a jagged, high-voltage gut punch that refuses to sit in any one genre. A self-made anthem of denial and emotional urgency, the 21 year old London-based artist whips together noise, grime, punk rap, and hyperpop into something wild and unfiltered. Born in Accra and raised in Peckham, he’s already earned love from Pitchfork, The FADER, Line of Best Fit, Pigeons and Planes, and BBC 6Music who playlisted his last track Another Domestic.

Everything here is DIY to the core written, produced, performed, and directed by Fondu himself. The new single is backed by a chaotic visual made with the same hands. Influenced by MF DOOM, Xiu Xiu, and Rachmaninoff, his sound is intense and emotional, but never overthought. After tearing up stages with Shame, Special Interest, and Fat Dog, he’s hitting the road across Europe with stops at Green Man, Shambala, and End of the Road.
