'Take Me Home' is the first single from Lucy Liebe's debut album Deadline Season and features Brazilian rapper and singer Laíz.
Lucy Liebe is a trans*femme multi instrumentalist, songwriter and producer based in Berlin. You might know Lucy as a founding member of Bokoya or seen her live with douniah or Gianni Brezzo. Lucy plays drums, keys, flute, trumpet, guitar, bass, and sings. After working in the areas of jazz and beat music for a long time, she reinterprets these influences through a queer lens and thus creates a unique inner tension. Artistically versatile, the focus of her output can be best described as alternative R&B, in which she talks about topics like queerness, transness*, home, trauma, and love. Deadline Season is Lucy Liebe's first solo album and features AKA Kelzz, Coco Elane, garrrog, Giaa, Laíz, Pachakuti and Rosa Landers.
"'Take Me Home' is a song about longing, belonging, and the hope for love while living in migration." Laíz shares. "It isn’t addressed to a specific person, but to a possibility, to the idea that someone might one day offer us the same warmth, safety, and sense of home we once knew. A home that no longer exists in the way we remember it."
Laíz is a rapper, singer, and visual artist hailing from São Paulo, whose genre blending sound rooted in hip hop, jazz, tropicália, samba, and Afrobeat, explores identity and migration. After releasing her acclaimed debut Ela Partiu in 2024, she is now based in Colombia developing a new visual album on mestizaje, alienation, and self definition.
Deadline Season is out now on vinyl and Bandcamp. Digital platforms will follow in due time. For now, ‘Take Me Home’ offers the first glimpse for the streaming world.
