Tomorrow, Colle´ Kharis will release Bachelors Adventure, an album that marks a major milestone in both his career and the global music landscape. With its bold fusion of reggae, dancehall, and Afrobeat influences, this album goes beyond entertainment—it’s a celebration of life, a call for awareness, and a reminder of our shared humanity. Bachelors Adventure is not just a musical journey—it’s an invitation to reflect, embrace, and feel deeply.
A Journey Through Sound and Story
Colle´ Kharis’ roots in Guyana’s Bachelors Adventure village come to life in this album, which transcends borders, bringing together influences from across the globe to tell stories that resonate universally. From love to loss, triumph to struggle, every track encapsulates powerful experiences and emotions, skillfully weaving thought-provoking narratives with infectious rhythms.
The album opens with “Oh Lay Lay,” a lively anthem of celebration where Colle´ expresses his admiration for a woman’s captivating presence and confident dance moves. It’s a playful, flirtatious song that invites listeners to join in the joyous atmosphere of the dancefloor—a perfect introduction to the album's vibrancy.
“One Draw of Love” follows, a sensual track that blends herb culture with the intoxicating allure of love. Colle´ tells the story of an unforgettable connection sparked by a simple "draw" of callie weed, capturing the euphoric magic of shared moments and the freedom of connection. With its sultry rhythms, the track offers a glimpse into the euphoric, liberating experience of love and life.
Bold, Raw, and Socially Conscious
While Bachelors Adventure is filled with moments of joy and celebration, it is also deeply rooted in social consciousness. “BLACK GOLD” is a sharp critique of the exploitation of developing nations and the geopolitical dynamics that often leave them vulnerable. With its repeated refrain, “Black gold in the hole, oh! behold,” the track serves as both a commentary on the power of oil and the consequences of the West's sudden interest in such resources. It underscores how quickly the world can turn its attention to nations only when they possess something valuable—and the impact this has on local communities.
This theme of exploitation and systemic oppression continues in “Despair, Distrust, Disgust” (featuring Carlisto), which confronts the raw, emotional effects of power abuse. This track doesn’t just highlight societal issues; it connects them to deeply personal stories of violation, fear, and the consequences of unchecked authority. The recurring theme of "Despair, distrust, disgust" asks listeners to question the true cost of power dynamics on vulnerable communities.
A Celebration of Life, Empowerment, and Reflection
Not all of Bachelors Adventure is about confronting difficult realities. Some tracks offer a sense of liberation and empowerment. “Big B’Day Bash” is a joyful anthem celebrating life's milestones. It captures the energy of a birthday bash, where the love of friends and family fills the air and gratitude for life’s blessings takes center stage.
Similarly, “Shadows of Fame” takes a reflective look at the darker side of fame, contrasting its superficial allure with the emptiness that often follows. The protagonist, lost in the excitement of life’s simple pleasures, warns against the emptiness that fame can bring, choosing instead to embrace authenticity and reject the hollow pursuit of recognition.
“V Allure,” featuring Keela Fred, is a sensual homage to a woman’s unique charm, comparing her allure to diamonds and “top shelf” qualities. The track offers an elevated and respectful tribute to femininity, emphasizing admiration and gratitude for a woman’s beauty—both inside and out.
“Ma Riddle” offers a punchy, empowering message, encouraging listeners to rise above negativity and embrace self-love. With its upbeat lyrics and infectious rhythm, the song advocates for staying true to oneself, disregarding the jealousy and bitterness of others while prioritizing happiness and growth.
