''Meantime'' is the second EP by British record producer and musician Kwes. It was released on 30 April 2012 on Warp Records. ==Background== The release is a follow up to his debut EP release ''No Need To Run''. Early demos for ''Meantime'' were written and composed as far back as 2008, but were accidentally wiped off his computer.〔Dombal, Ryan. (7 March 2012). (Rising: Kwes - Features - Pitchfork ). ''Pitchfork''. Retrieved on 2012-07-31.〕 ''Meantime'' was completed in January 2012 after finishing production work for DELS' ''GOB'', Speech Debelle's ''Freedom Of Speech'', Sunless '97's ''Making Waves'' and DRC Music's ''Kinshasa One Two''. Not being the first record to feature Kwes' vocals, the musical composition of ''Meantime'' is marked by Kwes accepting his ability to sing more prominently compared to his previous efforts. "Using my voice and writing about personal events is the most honest-- as well as the hardest-- way of expressing myself. If you caught me two, three, four years ago, I wouldn't have had the balls to do that." Kwes cited one of his musical heroes Robert Wyatt as someone whose music encouraged him to accept his ability to sing on ''Meantime''.〔(10 October 2011). (Blue Daisy Live In The Studio ).

Retrieved on 2012-08-01.〕 The record's title refers ambiguously to the location of Kwes' London hometown -- and to the record itself as his EP before his planned debut studio album. Kanye West and his tour DJ Mano sampled Kwes' song 'LGOYH' for Pusha T's track "Who I Am", which features on Pusha T's debut album "My Name Is My Name". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Meantime (EP)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
