Jamaican-American iconoclast Fousheé shares a new music video“100bux” that finds her sporting her signature curls and leather. This marks the third release off her upcoming album Pointy Heights out September 13th via RCA Records.

 

 

“100bux” is a chameleonic fusion of the alt-pop foundation she built on softCORE with clear Reggae and Ska influences. “100bux” sets off with a grungy baseline, and later finds Fousheé interpolating Musical Youth’s iconic track “Pass the Dutchie.” After recently visiting her family’s land in Jamaica for the first time since she was a kid, and consequently diving deeper into her mother’s history as a member of the 1980s all-female reggae group PEP, Fousheé’s forthcoming album is a mosaic of her past and present.

Pointy Heights was announced earlier this month alongside the Steve Lacy-produced lead single “still around,” featuring a propulsive groovy bassline and a music video shot on her family’s property in Jamaica. It was followed by calypso-infused track “war.”

To celebrate the upcoming project, Fousheé announces two tour dates. She’ll grace the stage of Paris’ Les Toiles on Friday, October 4 and stop at Jazz Cafe in London on Monday, October 7.
