Comments: From the promoter: "Born first out of fragments of ideas and experimentation in his Los Angeles studio in 2020 and 2021, Fragments ultimately was fused together in a burst of creativity fueled by collaboration, Green’s solo adventures into the deserts of California, and even his use of modular synths for the first time. The track “Tides” featuring Jamila Woods, which was a catalyst for the album, as well as “From You” featuring Joji, and “Shadows” featuring Jordan Rakei, which Green describes as "old school, Detroity, Moodymann and Theo Parrish-inspired.” Fragments is the sound of struggle and isolation, personally and collectively - and of a surging, joyous return. It is a reminder that out of struggle and disillusionment, creativity and hope can emerge at the most unexpected moments."
