Masego’s ‘Fix Your Face’ Is A Soulful, All-Star Return
Masego has released his new album 'Fix Your Face', a genre-blending record that shifts his previously coined "traphousejazz" style towards gospel influences, blended with jazz and R&B-adjacent songwriting. The American singer is known for his eclectic, boundary-pushing sound, and this release continues that pattern while marking a fresh creative direction with a heavy gospel undertone.
The album features an extensive list of collaborators, including dancehall star Buju Banton, R&B singer Leon Thomas, Keyshia Cole and Musiq Soulchild, among others. Masego explained that the title comes from a phrase mothers use to tell children to compose themselves after crying, which he has reinterpreted as a personal philosophy for facing life's challenges. He is due to play London's O2 Arena on 18th October 2026.
