D’orjay The Singing Shaman’s 2020 album New Kind of Outlaw opens with the title track, which is forceful because it has to be. Over a country-tough groove with slide guitar and banjo—you know, the African instrument—she soulfully sings, “I love country music/ Will country music love me?” It’s a hell of a thing to love something that’s been reluctant to love you back. Consider the song a challenge to the country music scene to make room for D’orjay. But at the same time, consider how the Canadian singer is making room for herself and the fellow Black female country singers she shouts out. That space-making songs like “New Kind of Outlaw” must exist is exasperating, and yet they must.
D’orjay uses the space carved out by “Outlaw” to great effect. The wistful “Grandma Luvy’s House” is steeped in the sweet nostalgia of the country tradition, but its reggae one-drop rhythm is very different and very welcome. “One Day Closer” is the product of honky-tonk lineage, but you’ve never heard it sung quite like this. By the album’s end, D’orjay has proven her mastery of modern country, but also her unique gift for imbuing them with heart, as well as serious vocal power. So with nothing else to prove, why not end with a Wallflowers chestnut stripped down to a soul groove and interweaving dobro and banjo?
