Embracing personal growth and raw introspection, Queen Herawin of The Juggaknots fame is set to drop her latest solo endeavor, “Awaken The Sleeping Giant,” on February 28th via Matic Records.
The album, a testament to Herawin’s journey of self-discovery and empowerment, promises to resonate deeply with listeners. “Awaken The Sleeping Giant is about waking up to your true self, to your inherent power, embracing it, and celebrating the entirety of who you are,” explains Queen Herawin, whose real name is withheld.
Herawin’s musical evolution unfolds through a tapestry of emotionally charged tracks, guided by the deft production of Bear-One and a host of collaborators. Tracks like “Focus,” an opening manifesto of resilience and determination, set the tone for an album that delves unflinchingly into themes of anger, denial, and shame.
“The album is a musical memoir,” Herawin elaborates, “It’s about acceptance, but also awakening to the things I wanted to bring awareness to.”
Featuring a stellar lineup including Poison Pen, Apathy, and Mickey Factz, among others, “Awaken The Sleeping Giant” showcases Herawin’s lyrical prowess and storytelling finesse. Each song serves as a chapter in her journey, weaving together moments of introspection and triumph.
Available for pre-order on major digital platforms and in exclusive vinyl editions via Bandcamp, the album offers fans a chance to delve into Herawin’s narrative before its official release. Vinyl enthusiasts can choose from limited editions including Celestial Blue Splatter and Gold Nugget variants, both featuring hand-numbered stickers.
With pre-orders shipping by February 21st, anticipation is high for “Awaken The Sleeping Giant,” poised to leave an indelible mark on the hip-hop landscape and beyond.
