Early 2020, rapper, producer and multi-instrumentalist Kunde (Ku:nde?) aka Joram Kunde Boumkwo travels to his father's birthplace of Cameroon for the first time in two decades. This journey sparked the inspiration for his debut album 'Dandelion,' which will be released on W.E.R.F. Records on February 9, 2024.

In this introspective concept album he uses storytelling, rap, spoken word and field recordings of his trip to delve into the complexity of his Afropean identity, intergenerational trauma, toxic masculinity and neocolonialism. Hisp razor sharp and poignant narrations are counterbalanced by the soothing and soulful sonic
textures with influences ranging from hip hop and jazz fusion to electronic afrobeats and spoken word, with touches from neo soul and bossa nova. All tracks were composed, recorded and produced by Kunde, with contributions from Susobrino (BAD MAN) and Helenar Casella (You Should Know), and Creo Cristoria on the saxophone (Twenty, Everytime, Ancêtres and You Should Know) and Pieter Vanoverberghe on the drums (Unwanted Flower and Blowing in The Wind). Like the little bud of the dandelion that is blowing through the winds of time, Kunde invites you to join him on his journey, looking for a place to call home.
