About the project: LAST NAME: POPE is independently released and a culmination of four years of hard work. A fusion of funk, soul, R&B, and mellow house, the record delves into profound themes including religion, Blackness, masculinity, and queerness, among others.
“There is something powerful about seeing someone stand in their Christianity or belief in something.” Pope shares with Dazed.” But I also have questions about what we’ve been taught, about what I’ve been taught. Am I not honouring my mother and father, as the Ten Commandments state, because I embody both masculine and feminine energy? These are the questions I wanted to explore in this record.”
