For second album, Falz tells ‘Stories That Touch’

-
Popular rapper and son of legal luminary, Femi Falana, Folarin aka Falz the Bahd Guy, is set to release his sophomore album titled, ‘Stories that Touch.’
In a chat with Showtime, he shed some light on the project, ‘This is my second official album, and it will be released on November 16, 2015. With this album, I’m trying to do something different; I’m trying to showcase my artistic side and the musicality in me. Generally speaking, there is an impression that I’m a crazy, hilarious and an unserious person. The brand definitely reflects that, but I’m trying to get people to focus on my music and see the content in it. That’s why I don’t really have skits on the album because I want people to pay attention to the serious messages in it. Falz the Bahd Guy is an all-encompassing brand, and the funny part is still in there. As much as I’m trying to show my artistic side, I can’t neglect the funny guy and the element of ‘razzness’ that’s always in my music. As much as you listen to the songs with very serious themes, my alter ego is still going to pop up.’
On what informed the title of the album, he said, ‘My inspiration for the title of the album stems from the fact that I’m trying to showcase my artistic side, so every song is a story. They’re stories that people will either be able to relate to, or be touched by. I want people to listen to the music, and connect to me.’
On whether the ‘stories that touch’ are personal to him, he said, ‘They’re not all personal stories, but the general theme that runs through them is life, relationships and things that happen around us. I want people to get a visual picture of what I’m portraying in the songs; that’s all.’
