The White Mandingos (comprised of Murs, Darryl Jenifer and Sacha Jenkins) have released the stream for their debut album. The concept record is told through the perspective of Tyrone White, a band front-man from the Harlem’s Polo Grounds Houses. Jenkins said of the story in a press release:

“He feels misunderstood–by his women, his friends, his people. And that misunderstanding sometimes affects who he is and who he truly wants to be. Should he not be playing this music because he’s black? And who the hell is in the position to tell him what to do anyways?”
