It’s a genre-spanning record that blends hip hop, funk, punk, and soul into a vivid, shape-shifting sound. Across its tracks, Owusu confronts themes of identity, mental health, and racism, using striking imagery and bold musical shifts to tell his story. Songs like The Other Black Dog and Don’t Need You balance infectious grooves with sharp lyricism, creating music that feels as confrontational as it is celebratory.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe album’s dynamic production and fearless experimentation earned it wide acclaim, establishing Owusu as one of the most innovative new voices in contemporary music. From abrasive bursts of energy to smooth, groove-driven passages, Smiling With No Teeth holds together through its sharp narrative thread and Owusu’s magnetic delivery. It’s an album that resists easy categorization, rewarding listeners with its depth, daring, and unrelenting creativity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003cb\u003eReviews:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n“Genesis Owusu’s debut is wildly ambitious and wildly successful, an album that hopscotches between genres while addressing weighty themes with confidence and style.” – The Guardian\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“A bold, inventive debut that challenges conventions and announces a major new talent.” – NME\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Smiling With No Teeth is a dazzling, genre-defying debut that blends funk, punk, and rap into something entirely its own.” – Rolling Stone Australia\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Genesis Owusu has crafted one of the most exciting debut albums in years, mixing vulnerability and bravado in equal measure.” – The Line of Best Fit\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“His ability to meld storytelling with a kaleidoscope of sounds makes this debut a must-hear.” – Clash\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Genesis Owusu\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e AWAL Recordings Ltd, Ourness\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/hip-hop-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eHip Hop \u0026amp;

With the acclaimed release of Smiling with No Teeth in 2021 and Struggler in 2023, he has built a reputation as one of the most original and boundary-pushing artists to emerge from Australia in recent years. Now, at 27, he returns with his third album, REDSTAR WU \u0026amp; THE WORLDWIDE SCOURGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album unfolds as a richly varied musical journey, full of shifting textures and restless energy. Its sound moves freely across styles, dissolving genre lines as it goes, from neo-soul to alt-pop, synth-punk to funk. That fluidity gives the record both movement and emotional range, carrying the listener through moments of joy, tension, resistance and introspection. Owusu’s great strength lies in the way he brings these influences together so naturally, shaping songs that feel expansive in sound yet deeply human at their core.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“I started writing this album because I was seeing so much of the world and watching what was happening,” he says. “I feel like I had something important to say. I was writing this almost for necessity because there were so many people not saying what needed to be said. I feel like I’m a student of Nina Simone, and she said, ‘the purpose of an artist is to reflect the times they live in’.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross 15 tracks, REDSTAR WU \u0026amp; THE WORLDWIDE SCOURGE offers a sharp response to the political, social and economic pressures shaping modern life. The album is ambitious in scope, detailed in its writing and direct in its purpose, as Owusu reflects on the systems straining human connection while also holding onto the possibility of solidarity, community and renewal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMusically, it captures Owusu at his most adventurous. Drawing from deep funk, alt-pop, neo-soul and Brit rock, the record blends a broad palette of influences into something bold, layered and cohesive. The result is a vivid, fearless album that speaks to the present moment with both urgency and imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Genesis Owusu\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Ourness\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/hip-hop-music-vinyl-records\"\u003eHip Hop \u0026amp; RnB\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/alternative-rock\"\u003eAlternative Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/britpop\"\u003eBritpop\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-r-b\"\u003eContemporary R\u0026amp;B\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/neo-soul\"\u003eNeo Soul\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Pirate+Radio\"\u003ePirate Radio\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Stampede\"\u003eStampede\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Hellstar\"\u003eHellstar\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Falling+Both+Ways\"\u003eFalling Both Ways\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+The+Worldwide+Scourge\"\u003eThe Worldwide Scourge\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Blessed+Are+The+Meek\"\u003eBlessed Are The Meek\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eC1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Life+Keeps+Going\"\u003eLife Keeps Going\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eC2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Most+Normal+American+Voter:\"\u003eMost Normal American Voter:\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eC3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Death+Cult+Zombie\"\u003eDeath Cult Zombie\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eC4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Situations\"\u003eSituations\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eD1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+4life\"\u003e4Life\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eD2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Runnin+Outta+Time\"\u003eRunnin Outta Time\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eD3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+Big+Dog\"\u003eBig Dog\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eD4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Genesis+Owusu+One4all\"\u003eOne4All\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Ourness","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43759600959553,"sku":"2152137","price":55.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/genesis-owusu-redstar-wu-the-worldwide-scourge.jpg?v=1775807109"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/collections\/genesis-owusu-vinyl-records.oembed","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
