Joshua Idehen finds the light and hands it to you. His debut album is a dancefloor prayer, a spoken word balm, a communal exhale.
I Know You’re Hurting, Everyone Is Hurting, Everyone Is Trying, You Have Got To Try lands 6 March 2026 via Heavenly Recordings — and the same month, Idehen brings it to Inkonst. A rare chance to witness a record this emotionally charged and rhythmically rich in the flesh, flanked by his longtime collaborator and producer Ludvig Parment (aka Saturday, Monday).
Born in London, shaped in Stockholm, and rooted in diasporic experience, Idehen’s music turns personal testimony into collective ritual. Tracks like “It Always Was” and “Brother” glide between eulogy and uplift, threading poetics through spacious beats, gospel-inflected choirs, and after-hours house. This is dance music for the spirit — full of defiance, tenderness, and the ache of persistence.
Following a breakout year that saw viral moments, Glastonbury sets, and a stint supporting Baxter Dury, Idehen arrives at Inkonst with a project that is both manifesto and memory capsule. Stories unfold across continents and inner worlds. Joy is political, grief is rhythmic, and hope is not naive — it’s necessary.
Come ready to feel something. Come ready to move.
RIYL: Kae Tempest, The Comet Is Coming, Moor Mother, Tirzah, Benin City, Jam City, Sault, Sons of Kemet, Gaika, Tony Allen.
