Larry Ossei-Mensah: Sade, Love Deluxe

11/14/24 • 36 min

Kutimba With Siima

I dissect Sade's Love Deluxe album cover art with curator and cultural critic Larry Ossei-Mensah. He explains how the image embodies self-love. Together, we explore how the Love Deluxe cover departs from typical portrayals of the band’s lead singer, Sade Adu. Additionally, Larry and I discuss the “Sade Girl Aesthetic” on social media.

Host: Siima Itabaaza

Guest: Larry Ossei-Mensah
