Neneh Cherry Blank Project is her first solo album in 16 years – a collaboration with RocketNumberNine, produced by Four Tet, and featuring a guest appearance by Robyn. The 10-track album, recorded and mixed over a 5-day period will be out February 25th, 2014 on Smalltown Supersound. It follows 2012's The Cherry Thing, a collaborative record with free jazz, noise collective The Thing, which featured new versions of songs by The Stooges, MF Doom, Ornette Coleman, amongst others. While her energy and demeanor may not have changed since the days of Rip Rig + Panic, musically, Blank Project is a departure from anything Neneh has previously done, initially written as a means of working through personal tragedy. What stands out upon first listen is the album's sparseness: loose drums and a few synthesizers are the only accompaniment to Neneh's wildly poetic, sometimes-spoken, sometimes-screeching, soul-flooded and raw vocals. The space created by this minimal aesthetic leaves room for occasional pistes and flurries of rapid, yet throbbing and thunderous instrumentation. Featuring combined elements of beat poetry, avant-electronica and beautiful vocal melodies, it's a record that uses simple ideas to create something entirely original. And despite the personal struggles, Neneh was working through in writing this new material, the songs are far from introverted. As many are aware, the stories from Neneh's early years are astonishing. She spent her childhood living 50/50 between a loft in New York and in the South of Sweden with her mother and stepfather, the legendary jazz musician Don Cherry. She's been lifted onto Miles Davis' lap, Allen Ginsberg regularly passed through their home in an evening and as she got older, she could pop in on Arthur Russell, Talking Heads and The Modern Lovers who all lived in the same loft complex in Long Island City New York. At 14, she started taking trips to Harlem with Ari Up of the Slits at a time when few would venture so far uptown. Soon after, she left home and moved to London, and spent the next 20 years inside the crucial developments in British subculture. As post-punk became the site of 80s Britain's artistic and political resistance, she helped form the anarchic multi-ethnic, multi-genre Rip, Rig + Panic, and she was one of the first to bring hip-hop culture to a British audience with “Buffalo Stance” and Raw Like Sushi. Although at points her career had brushes with the mainstream, Neneh remained staunchly counter-culture. Through post-punk's adherence to mixed-race line-ups and antigovernment stance, to UK rap's refusal of the conventions of pop, triphop's connection with the politicized elements of rave culture and, through 1996's Man, where Neneh introduced elements of Senegalese language to mainstream audiences for the first time via the mammoth “7 Seconds” single featuring Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour, and now, with Blank Project, Neneh continues to arrive at moments in musical history when there is an opportunity to subvert ideas of popular culture. She is subverting once again, only this time, although this record is musically bold, Neneh sees the stasis she's challenging isn't musical or societal, but her own.

Fellas got to give me the most respect ‘Cause you know I don't like to waste my time So don't give me that I'm laying down I sizzle slow I might be tripping but I do my thing I play the games like monkey in the middle Not piece by piece like a puzzle we come together Guru "You never seen a girl like this before Because she's so sassy completely secure Check out the way she walks and talks She's got the force to knock it out the box Now I know this lady for some time Yes of course she's fine The only one of her kind, buss it The lady has so much pazzaz If you step to her wrong you're getting played the jazz Conversations Don't say the most Along the way I've heard some boasting I roll my dice and take what comes Numbers, numbers, numbers As I hang with my chums I count my lucky days 'cause I know when they come If you're looking for a ride boy watch me run All the way to China Or just between peace and man Oh yes she's nifty-hefty The beat plays on She's about to rip the roof from Dusk to dawn So when you see lady for must give her props And let the champagne flowing until the music stop I'm a man of my time she's a woman of hers to Old fashioned but still stashing a few New styles for roughneck rude So I'm gonna stuff it in your face like gourmet food And hooked like a picture and look to the wall And hanging like Picasso seems so tall Voluptuous I had a choice to be monogamous Me and my baby forgot to check what day it was Under the covers kissing the way it was Freshly squeezed so pure and natural Unique in character and this is factual So sassy, so sassy So sassy, so sassy... Money Love With the power that some lovin' can bring Makes the mountain high stacks of money and things That I need change And fade away sometimes When I look in the mirror I see a little clearer I am what I am And you are you too Do you like what you see Do you like yourself Money love and gold payments We spend our lives thinking they are saviors Money talks but love is for real And you know that Then a picture comes into my mind Everybody knows you need some money sometimes Could it be that we need lovin' to survive So look into my eyes I won't tell you lies Who do you see Do you see yourself Do you like what you see Do you like yourself Money love and gold payments We spend our lives thinking they are saviors Money talks but love is for real And you know that So how do we drink in a sinking ship How do we float in a sinking boat How do we rock when the rock is rollin' Give me a float & keep the moolah rollin' Talking about talking about talking about money Nothing's for free in the land of milk'n honey Got a foot on the bridge over troubled water A credit cards cool but I'll settle for a quarter Move With Me Into a world I plunge thru my headphones, escape into the streetlight I begin to believe in destiny when my surroundings in rhythm with me I'm just a grain of sand walking in a sea of people I look around me and my name is just someone For a moment in time I belong Where my heart beats the fear is gone like destiny So move with me I'm strong enough to be weak in your arms Move with me I'm strong enough to be real in your arms Whispering as I was driving quietly the car was rolling like a bullet I was feeling the speed moving me faster. Addicted to the rhythm on my ghetto blaster That's me supposing that the clarity of thought Is clear enough to think it's real enough to touch The wind on me got me tripping can I keep you next to me Till the end of the world So move with me I'm strong enough to be weak in your arms Move with me I'm strong enough to be real in your arms So move with me I'm strong enough to be weak in your arms Move with me I'm strong enough to be real in your arms Like the joker on the pile never coming or going The colour of my true cards was showing Keeping in touch with an idea that I been growing Trust trust I must trust with my head on my chest I rest with the rest of the restless So move with me I'm strong enough to be weak in your arms Move with me I'm strong enough to be real in your arms I Ain't Gone Under Yet I'm just another voice from the street And since it's my choice, I feel that I must speak Now I know that you won't listen to little me But I can't rest unless I get this off my chest See The city's my home the streets where I roam But still I leave the drugs and violence alone And so I try to stay in the right frame of mind Although I know some people who might say that I'm Crazy and lazy for not breakin' out But the city has soul and that's what I'm about I have an appetite that must be fed No longer blind and being led The of freedom that you can buy My bank won't lend me yet But still I can get by--and even smile So don't judge me by the colour of my skin My blood runs as deep as your runs red Which takes me out of the rap The choice is mine With my joy and pain inside And I ain't gone under yet! See bodies with souls living in the street No one wants to live with nothing to eat But to climb over living people and fee that they brought in on themselves 'Cause they lazy or would rather steal is a mystery So don't judge me by the colour of my skin My blood runs as deep as your runs red Which takes me out of the verse The choice is mine With my joy and pain inside And I ain't gone under yet! Your under is my over I've never seen your over yet But don't forget I ain't gone under yet! 4X I don't steal I don't run tricks or scams 'Cause I'm a strong young woman yes I know who I am But sometimes it's so hard to get by Touch circumstances make me want to get high But I don't go too far cause that ain't my style So why don't you come live next to me for a while Twisted I think I could give myself up to you Cause you pushed your way thru my attitude But a taste of life on the tip of my tongue Won't let me forget. It just reminds me Of all the things I've been fed And all the magazines that I've read I'm suspicious of what you said How long can we be this way How long can we live this way Will twisted tongues bring us down Or the twisted world we're living in Or am I the one that's twisted too Thinking we'll make it thru Lipstick smiles bring me worries When I imagine you with somebody else That's when I know you got me twisted baby Oh these wicked jealousies could bring us down Every woman to herself Every man is his own When I'm with you the feeling's stronger I wonder How Long can we be this way How long can we live this way... The thought of saying I'll give you everything I got Seems so empty cause it's stereotype To protect my sanity How Long can we be this way How long can we live this way...

The thoughts are clear From feeling regardless. Heart beats With pain You were oh so happy just the other day Now heartbeats with pain took it all away The cradle did rock for you too Looking out from the inside While life turns to blue Watching all the glass faces Leave their red red footprints On our Sensitivity I'm feeling cold Like concrete Your dignity's reflecting In the way I feel it By the store lays your mountain bike You on the floor no more hard core The colour was red under my shoe And the friend has gone Who put a whole in you Guided by the blue light that Takes you away I'm on my way home Guided by the blue light That takes you away I'm on my way home Guided by the blue light I'm on my way home...

Across the Water To the fickle let it drop We have the power to sustain Like the motor needs the food To bring more power to our brain Now we bought it back So let me make it plain Since our mother's gone It always seems to rain And the booze, and the friends and the party never ends No excuse for behavior than no one can defend We reflect in the quiet Times inside our heads And give thanks from our children Tucked up sweetly in their beds Inside their heads Oh no, copy paste again, I'm always on the run forever Trickling water dripping down Slow like some rivers without a sound Passed many times since you were at my side I'm still here, but I keep you deep inside With my hands across the water With my two feet in the sea My fear is for my daughters But will God wash over me Take our lambs off to the slaughter Take their lives so perfectly Like your bricks are filled with mortar Cast your wisdom to the brede Cracks and fault lines New York City talks to me Slow like some re-runs on our mother's tv New York City, she speaks to me in tongues Keeps me to her breast, pumps air into my lungs With my hands across the water With my two feet in the sea My fear is for my daughters But will God wash over me Take our lambs off to the slaughter Take their lives so perfectly Like your bricks are filled with mortar Cast your wisdom to debris With my hands across the water With my two feet in the sea My fear is for my daughters But will God wash over me Take our lambs off to the slaughter Take their lives so perfectly Like your bricks are filled with mortar Cast your wisdom to debris Blank Project I got a man, I love him so much Sometimes I hate it, just can't let go Together we stand, divided we fall Driving me crazy, I need it all On my 28th day, he is my victim He is my saviour, he breaks my fall The things that we say, all stacked in one pile Stay fresh and good while upright I call Too many times you come crawling, say sorry too late Paper cup regrets will not stick, better change Too many times you come crawling, say sorry too late Papercup regrets will not stick, better change Need to be right, right to be wrong Sometimes a loser, lost down the hall Leave me alone, but don't leave me lonely And please don't look now, can you see this Oh no, copy paste again, I'm always on the run forever Does my ass look big in these new trousers My ego won't let me, I forget I feel so small, I hate you, I hate you I love you, I love you, I love it all I love it, I love it all Too many times you come crawling, say sorry too late Papercup regrets will not stick, better change Too many times you come crawling, say sorry too late Papercup regrets will not stick, better change Oh I hate you I hate you Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide Husband and wife, leaking perfection All kinds of fun, oceans of pride We're super, why We got protection We got protection Too many times you come crawling, say sorry too late Papercup regrets will not stick, better change

Broken Politics
Fallen Leaves Now everything in focus I can see it clearly Every little detail Crystal clear & dread Breaks my little brain The clarity hurts So looking at the pain now We've clearly let us down If I could alter shift all the petty ways Plastic cups and paper plates The quiet parties that never end Don't mean a shit, it's easier unsaid Is is fallen leaves The birdshot on my sleeve With no luck at all There'd be no luck for me Watch me come undone Look at what you see Just because I'm down Don't step all over me Keep it under wraps then Keep it sealed & safe Things we left unsaid well They become a roar Push my buttons best Unravelled at the seems I have come undone In the fabric of our dreams Covered them so neatly Too many layers deep down within me and yet I guess we're like strangers, I don't even know Pull my trigger now and it will drown within me Is is fallen leaves The birdshot on my sleeve With no luck at all There'd be no luck for me Watch me come undone Look at what you see Just because I'm down Don't step all over me Don't step all over me
Kong Love forsaken Risk worth taking Spearmint flavors All my pallet shutters I'm a member of shattered allusions And am I needless to say Another song, this is nothing new But love is big and every land Every nation seeks its friends in France and Italy And all across the seven seas And goddamn guns and guts and history And bitter love still put a hole in me Bite my head off Still my world will always be A little risk worth taking Bite my hand off Still my world will always be Another risk worth taking Gotta step out a limb, swallow my pride Surrender and not give myself away Little measures all the time Become part of you, nothing new Still half-full for absolutions In my day there's no solutions And love is big and every land Every nation seeks its friends in France and Italy And all across the seven seas And goddamn guns and guts and history And bitter love still put a hole in me Bite my head off Still my world will always be A little risk worth taking Bite my hand off Still my world will always be Another risk worth taking

What love What hate Could reach the point of no return What love What hate Could reach the point Take you down into a dead end lane Make me walk on broken glass And let my liquid make petal coloured moves Removes the lipstick stains that still remain Am I still the same What love What hate Could reach the point of no return What love What hate Could reach the point As I take you through the bedroom door You can be my mother You can be my whore Take a lesson in geography Wash me down in Pepsi Sweet obsess possess me What love What hate Could reach the point of no return What love What hate Could reach the point What love What hate Could reach the point of no return What love What hate Could reach the point

Freedom Of Music (David Ornette Cherry feat. Neneh Cherry and Tyson Mcvey / It Could Be Different LP) It's not the freedom for something But the freedom to do something that determines the direction It's not the avoidance of tonality, consonance, meter And everything else like little awakening associations with the past But the unlimited possibilities of choice The problem is never have to get new individual thoughts into your mind But have to get the old ones out Every mind is a building filled with archaic furniture Clean out of a corner of your mind and creativity will instantly fill it Creativity is seen as something that doesn't exist already You need to find out how you can bring it into being And, in that way, being played, made with God There is spirit in all music Spirit has the ability to conjure up thoughts Even pictures of something that has happened Or you wish it would happen to you Anticipate or anticipate Or you anticipate happening Music has the ability to create ideas in you and me It has the ability to encourage us to be creative There's spirit in all music There's spirit in all music There's spirit in all music Spirit The spirit has the ability to conjure up thoughts Even pictures of something that happen Or you wish it would happen Or you anticipate happening Music has the ability to create ideas in you and me It has the ability to encourage us to be creative To be creative To be creative Treat the Earth and all that dwell their own with respect Remain close to the great spirit Show great respect for your fellow beings Work together for the benefit of all mankind Give assistance and kindness whenever needed Be truthful and honest at all times Take full responsibility for your actions, actions Music has power So I want to use it consciously and spiritually When I play it as a musician or share it as an artist Or when you, as a listener, share it with others I want the music to be a positive experience I want the music to be a positive experience

Together Now Into the morning Got me through the night I've seen the light I see the light I live of what I need I've got greed I've been a sinner for as long as I know So help me understand The little that I know Shadow dancing with my spirit Got to face your demon on your own Take my body and put it through the dust I've been buried in the crust Together now So help me understand The little that I know Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Together now, together now The descendants of Christ I'm confused Will you help me, I'm confused Will you help me, I'm confused Will you help me, I'm confused What you gonna do With the little that I know With the little that I got Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Together now, together now It's us now, it's us now And there's them and there's them And should we start again Turn My Back Posted, stamped and tasted Letter from me to me My direct plea Fruitless and out of season Came back to me, unopened Untasted, untried and not tested I began to see Fulfil needs silently Inside we bleed Right, write right to the country And tell them I'm sorry I left My man and 48 kids on the bridge of starvation Without any gingerbread Right, I write right to the country And tell them I'm sorry I left My man and 48 kids on the bridge of starvation Without any gingerbread Give me little leave for the things I need Give me little love Give me little peace Give me this and that Like freaks we come together after midnight Abstract in our love Abstinent and out of reach I plead for release Kiss me please, kiss me please Reality like letting my head go Like bullet rains in the desert dry No high, won't change How low you go, how low you go Turn my back, turn around again There it is, there it is again Bad taste, privet to my tongue Visions that I have Become memories like echoes And that is real at least to me I got to find a leave for my tape machine Give me little leave for the things I need Messenger, metaphors Abstinent I reform My Pumas go like machine guns When I gotta go, gotta go Give me little leave for the things I need Give me little love Give me little peace Give me this and that Turn my back, turn around again There it is, there it is again Left, right, my left, my left, my right Left, I left, with my right I step With my left I left Twisted Mess The first kiss you planted to my face. The second twist tonight, a fate. And somehow the taste of fear took up all the space in here. (more or less) I pick a way out in the twisted mess. (more or less) Disintegrated, strategically impressed. (more or less) No longer residents at the new address. (more or less) Scratch me like a perfume ad, recycle all the plans we had. (more or less) Whenever I fake, (more or less) whoever I take, (more or less) however it breaks, (more or less) someone's gonna fall. I sense a grain of stress (more or less) hurting you more or less. (more or less) I pick up this twisted mess. (more or less) Like sinking ships dragged into abyss, just slamming in simpleness. Wherever I take the night, keeping it eye to eye, just slammin with tastiness. (more or less) I pick a way out in the twisted mess, (more or less) Disintegrated, strategically digress. (more or less) No longer residents at your own address. (more or less) Watch me like a prison guard, swipe me like a credit card. (more or less) Whenever I fake, (more or less) whoever I take, (more or less) however it breaks, (more or less) someone's gonna fall. (more or less) I sense a grain of stress (more or less) hurting you more or less. (more or less) I pick up this twisted mess. (more or less) (more or less) (more or less) Take me, shake me, knock me with a million ways that we relate. We both come to suffocate to make it through the night today. (more or less) Count the days strategically (more or less) creeping to believe in me. (more or less) Who to blame and who will be, (more or less) make it through an irony. (more or less) Whenever I fake, (more or less) whoever I take, (more or less) however it breaks, (more or less) someone's gonna fall. (more or less) I sense a grain of stress (more or less) hurting you more or less. (more or less) I pick up this twisted mess. (more or less) (more or less) Those that think and those that do. (Whenever I fake, (more or less)) Am I up or am I blue? (whoever I take, (more or less)) Take up all the space in here (however it breaks, (more or less)) as we try to hide our fear. (someone's gonna fall. (more or less)) When we try the simple sense, (I sense a grain of stress, (more or less)) faded out the sun will cleanse (?) (hurting you more or less. (more or less)) Now I start to reminisce, (I pick up this twisted mess. (more or less)) moving on to picture this. (more or less) Take me, shake me, knock me with (Whenever I fake, (more or less)) a million ways that we relate. (whoever I take, (more or less)) We both come to suffocate (however it breaks, (more or less)) to make it through the night today. (someone's gonna fall. (more or less)) Count the days strategically, (I sense a grain of stress, (more or less)) creeping to believe in me. (hurting you more or less. (more or less)) Who to blame and who will be, (I pick up this twisted mess. (more or less)) make it through an irony. (more or less) Now that's tasting on my lips (Whenever I fake, (more or less)) fear that's always sour bliss. (whoever I take, (more or less)) Now I start to reminisce, (however it breaks, (more or less)) moving on to picture this. (someone's gonna fall. (more or less)) Is this terror, is this bliss (I sense a grain of stress, (more or less)) sinking down deep to abyss? (hurting you more or less. (more or less)) Drinking up and making kisses (I pick up this twisted mess. (more or less)) searching for the surfaces. (more or less) Those that think and those that do Am I up or am I blue? Take up all the space in here As we try to hide our fear. When we try to save ourselves... Walk Into This Room Don't let 'em get to your heart Don't lose your diamonds swimmin' in a lake when it's only God The whole wide world feels like a shrine built to the worker bees Who stole it from God anyhow Lay it down child Lay it down child And walk into this room Don't let 'em get to your spark That little light in the back of everything that says this Isn't for madder love The whole wide world feels like a clan of mad scientists removing the juice So they can freeze-dry you and put you in a box Lay it down child Lay it down child And walk into this room all made with love for you Lay it down child You can You can Lay it down child And walk into this room A hundred candles to make the walls come alive A little frank incense to sweeten the air just right Now take my hand And open the door And open the door Lay it down child You can You can Lay it down child And walk into this room Walk into this room Lay it down child Just lay it down, lay it down Lay it down Lay it down, lay it down Into this room Wherever You Go

You've Got Me Thinking (The Beloved feat. Neneh Cherry / Unreleased version) Just whispering some little words Just a little touch Not so much Just some little words Now I know it isn't easy The things I've put you through I have no right to do You try so very hard to please me But I'm remote from you So rarely close to you You've got me thinking for the first time About the things I've said and done Now I see things much more clearly Feels like the change must surely come I see you clearly When I shut my eyes Every truth, not lies Deep inside I know I've got a ? in my soul But I just miss it My heart is like a hobo Beating like a ? Like no man No, I ain't man It's not as if I couldn't realize I was hurting you, soul-searching you Sensing your bravery, feeling unsavory most of the time Like music to my ears Thus we begin to make sense Funky pretense, so unsafe I've been thinking all the time (You've got me thinking for the first time) I see you clearly when I shut my eyes Now I see things much more clearly Oh it's all right Oh it's all right, baby, yeah You've got me thinking for the first time About the things I've said and done And now I see things much more clearly Feels like the change must surely come You've got me thinking for the first time About the things I've said and done And now I see things much more clearly Feels like the change must surely come Lustful words in another world Maybe I could flow on a beat
