Kali Uchis Announces New Album, 'Red Moon In Venus'

Grammy award winning artist Kali Uchis has announced that her new album Red Moon In Venus is set for releasing on the 3rd of March.

The news closely follows the release of her latest single I Wish You Roses last week, alongside a video directed by Cho Gi-Seok.

On the new record, Uchis explains that, "Love is the message. Red Moon In Venus is a timeless, burning expression of desire, heartbreak, faith, and honesty, reflecting the divine femininity of the moon and Venus. The moon and Venus work together to make key aspects of love and domestic life work well.

"This body of work represents all levels of love—releasing people with love, drawing love into your life and self-love. It’s believed by many astrologers that the blood moon can send your emotions into a spin, and that’s what I felt represented this body of work best.”

The record is rumoured to float between soul, R&B and pop, leaning on the timelessness of Uchis' signature sound. The result is an album that transcends genre or classification, a reflection of her soul which she has aimed to perfect throughout her discography. 

Kali Uchis broke onto the scene in 2015 with her EP Por Vida, before following it up with her 2018 debut album Isolation. Since then she's collaborated with and shared the stage with the likes of SZA, Gorillaz, Jorja Smith, Diplo, Major Lazer, Snoop Dogg, Kaytranada Loen Bridges and Tyler, The Creator.

Her most recent effort Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios) won Uchis three Billboard Latin Awards, two Billboard Music Awards and an American Music Awards. Its runaway breakthrough sigle telepatia has been streamed more than 2 billion times and is the Billboard Hot 100's longest running solo Spanish track with a 23 week streak.
