After initially stating that ‘It Was Good Until It Wasn’t’ would be delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic, the new album is due out this Friday (May 8). The record is set to feature Tory Lanez, James Blake, Jhene Aiko, and more.

The singer has been sharing a string of new music and videos in 2020 so far, including recent single ‘F&MU’.

In a press release, the musician explained the artwork, which sees her looking over a wall at an unseen scene. “[It’s] a depiction of the never-ending duality of ‘good’ and ‘bad.’ It’s a tale of perspective,” she said. Check out the image with tracklisting below.

The new album follows the 2017 release of her debut full-length ‘SweetSexySavage’. In a four-star review, NME said: “Set off by her distinctive voice,  sweet but tough like honeycomb, the album is cohesive without feeling too samey […] Kehlani’s 17-track debut album establishes her as a multi-faceted talent.”
