Joji defies convention - his songs characterized by down tempo, melancholic themes and soulful vocals, layered over lush grimy textures, blending elements of trap, folk, electronic, and R\u0026amp;B. Joji is one of the most interesting and promising artists living in the digital age, a master of multiple mediums, commanding a massive and almost fanatical fan base, with 600+ million views on YouTube alone. His loyal following has carried over into Joji’s music career. His first full-length studio album, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?\u0026amp;q=Ballads%201\u0026amp;filter=Brand\/Manufacturer\/Artist_fq:%22Joji%22\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBallads 1\u003c\/a\u003e, is, simply put, a collection of ballads dedicated to the theme of change. Each song deals with the struggle of change - leaving toxic environments, grappling with temptations, or refusing to change - and serve as reminders to Joji to be comfortable with his own growth. The album is told from multiple perspectives, based on both people in Joji’s life and imagined. Ballads 1 also reflects Joji’s evolution as an artist since the release of his debut EP In Tongues in November 2017. Through the recording process, Joji has unlocked an ambitious new sound and style that’s uniquely his own. The album is predominantly self-produced, yet features notable collaborations with producers \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=Shlohmo\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eShlohmo\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=Clams+Casino\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eClams Casino\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=Thundercat\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThundercat\u003c\/a\u003e, RL Grime, Patrick Wimberly, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=Jam+City+Night+Slugs\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJam City\u003c\/a\u003e, and a vocal feature from rapper \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=Trippie+Redd\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eTrippie Redd\u003c\/a\u003e.\" - 88rising\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 year anniversary edition w\/ alternate cover art\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003etranslucent red colored vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eindie exclusive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehoused in gatefold jacket w\/ printed inner sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elimited edition of 4000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: 88rising Music 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"voltios.shop","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":52317907026247,"sku":"lp-14129","price":20.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/7628\/0391\/files\/joji-ballads1-coloredvinyl-1.jpg?v=1757589939","url":"https:\/\/voltios.shop\/products\/joji-ballads-1-5th-anniversary-indie-exclusive-colored-vinyl-vinyl-lp","provider":"voltios.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
