Written and co-produced by Furtado, 7 is a collection of liberated pop music, both celebratory and deeply personal, from her perspective as a “grown ass woman living with no shame or apologies.” Inspired by an “inner revolution”, Nelly Furtado is an artist thriving in her purpose, continuing her legacy of elevating pop music. Furtado’s impeccable ear for blending styles and crafting inspired and truly original music shines throughout the 14-track album. Her curious and collaborative energy fuelled studio sessions from sunset to sunrise with songwriters, producers, and musicians across genres including Tove Lo, SG Lewis, Bomba Estéreo, T-Minus, Lido Pimienta, Wondagurl, Dom Dolla, Charlotte Day Wilson, FNZ, Owen Pallett, Tynomi Banks, Blxckie, Charmie, and Gray Hawken, among others. A prolific songwriter and collaborator, Nelly Furtado wrote 400 songs over the course of four years culminating in her most inspired and personal collection to date.
“I was able to form such a supportive community of artists and creatives around me - it was such a safe, collaborative space to create art and be able to unleash my emotions in a productive way,” shares Furtado. “I kept the studio set up like soundcheck – with amps, echo, reverb – and we were always recording. The songs became portals to escape into.” “I thought I could live without music, but I was wrong,” she continues. “My craft is my passion. Music is so powerful and is such a positive force. I think listening to music is the healthiest vice in the world. I rediscovered my artistic voice through all of those sessions and I’m so proud of 7.” KEEP UP WITH NELLY FURTADO: Website / YouTube / TikTok / Instagram |
