Produced by a stable of some of Canadas finest musical minds including DJ Kemo (The Rascalz, Kardinal Offishall), Chin Injeti (DJ Khalil, Eminem, Drake) and Daniel Lee (Hooded Fang, Phedre), Record Kicks proudly presents "The Gumption" the awaited new album by Canadian soul star Tanika Charles. Predominately guitar-driven mid-tempo soul, with a handful of dance floor friendly tunes and some psychedelic leanings, The Gumption was indirectly influenced by the likes of Alabama Shakes, The Supremes, Khruangbin, DAngelo, and Moses Sumney. It is sonically moody at times, but with consistent silver-liningarcs. "Ive grown up and learned to deal with situations significantly better. We have a tendency to hold back our innermost feelings for fear of hurting others. Even when were happy we worry about over-sharing, as if joy is a competition you dont want to gloat about."
