Not Waving, But Drowning (Vinyl LP)

Loyle Carner's highly anticipated sophomore record, Not Waving, But Drowning, is now available via AMF Records.

Not Waving, But Drowning follows Loyle's BRIT (Best Male, Best Newcomer) and Mercury Prize nominated, top 20 debut Yesterday's Gone.

The bedrock of honest and raw sentimentality that you heard on Yesterday's Gone left an inextinguishable mark on music in general and UK Hip Hop in particular, standing out as an ageless, bulletproof debut.

Not Waving, But Drowning, Loyle's new album, gives yet more evidence - as if it were needed - of his razor-sharp flow and his unique storytelling ability.

Yes, he can rap, but he allies that with the sensitivity of a poet, the observational skills of a novelist, and warmth of your best friend.

The album opens with "Dear Jean," a letter to his mother in which he's telling her that he has found the love of his life, "a woman from the skies," and he's moving out.

The LP comes in Heavyweight Black Vinyl housed in a Gatefold Sleeve.

Our Grading Standards
We grade all vinyl using the Goldmine standard:
Mint (M): Perfect, unplayed condition.
Near Mint (NM): Nearly perfect with minimal signs of handling.
Very Good Plus (VG+): Shows light signs of play but plays with minimal surface noise. The most common grade for collectable vinyl.
Very Good (VG): Noticeable marks and some surface noise, but still an enjoyable listen.
Good (G): Heavy wear — for collectors only.

All records are graded visually and by play. Media and sleeve are graded separately.
