It’s a big month for Kali Uchis.

Just one week before she makes her Coachelladebut, the Colombian-American artist has delivered her long-awaited studio album Isolation—her first full-length release since the 2015 Por Vida EP.

Uchis has been teasing the project, which was originally titled Fool’s Paradise, since 2016; however, she didn’t officially announce the release until several weeks ago when she made an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

“I like to conceptualize a project before I put it in motion. The last project was all pastels and blonde and pink, all dreamy and angelic. It was very baby. This one is more mature,” she told The Fader in 2017. “I feel more in tune with myself. Like I’ve actually come into my own as a woman.”

The 15-track project includes the previously released singles “Tyrant” with Jorja Smith, “Nuestro Planeta” featuring Reykon, and “After the Storm” assisted by Tyler, the Creator, who also teamed up with Uchis on the Flower Boy track “See You Again.”

You can check out Isolation on Apple Music and iTunes, as well as Spotify.
