Departure, the debut EP from emerging Danish artist Emi Wes is out now. The EP was produced by four-time Grammy-nominated producer and writer, Robin Hannibal, who’s best known for his work with Rhye, Quadron, Little Dragon and Kendrick Lamar. Listen to/share Departure here. 

“This piece of work, Departure, has been on its way for a long long time. In those years creating it I became an adult and had to deal with challenges, like everyone else, at the same time some of my lifetime dreams were happening at the same time—signing a record deal with Interscope and having the best opportunity possible to create just what I wanted. I love to challenge myself and to write songs and expressing myself is a very natural coping mechanism for me. Working with Robin Hannibal is a partnership I cherish very deeply. I made an EP that I’m very proud of,” notes Wes.
