Sylvan LaCue – Young Sylvan Ep. 3 [EP]

Sylvan LaCue is back with the third and final installment of his “Young Sylvan” EP series.

“It’s been a really insane ride with these EP’s,” LaCue expressed on Instagram. “When the pandemic hit, I was already in the process of confronting childhood traumas and doing shadow work. I found a lot of anger, frustration, rage, aggression, fear, sadness, and depression within in me. Trauma is classified in three episodes: Acute, Chronic, and Complex. These EP’s embody that. First being Chronic. Second being Acute. And the final being Complex. I appreciate all of you for taking the time to hear out a different side of my creativity and allowing me to explore my shadow self. I know it was a bit of a surprise for some of you who expected more records like ‘Apologies’ or ‘Searching’, but I’m an artist and I will always do whatever I feel I want to do, and it’ll never be the same thing twice. That’s just who I am. The black air forces (shown on all three covers) represent all the anger, all the frustration, and all the depression I’ve held along with me. They say when sneakers go up on a pole line, it symbolizes a death. And this very much is death. A death of holding onto childhood trauma. I feel like I’m coming out on the other side of this journey with far more peace than I’ve had in years. Leaving behind loops I’ve been on for ages. I’m thankful for y’all and I’m thankful to God for this process.”

The 5-track offering is entirely produced by Merlaku Ra and executive produced by Gary Biddy and LaCue. Press play below and be sure to add “Young Sylvan Ep. 3” on your preferred streaming platform.
