Devon Gilfillian - Love You Anyway (Deluxe) (2024) [Hi-Res]

Rising singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Devon Gilfillian has released his second full-length studio album, Love You Anyway, via Fantasy Records.

An intoxicating, genre-crossing game changer, Love You Anyway spans soul, hip-hop, R&B, and rock, all under the banner of Black joy. The Philadelphia-born, Nashville-based soul artist also debuted a sinuous and seductive new single, “All I Really Wanna Do,” along with the track’s accompanying interstellar-inspired animated video that finds Devon traveling through a love-induced galaxy of his own making.

Produced by Jeremy Lutito (Joy Oladokun, NEEDTOBREATHE), Love You Anyway confronts as well as comforts. Chronicling Gilfillian’s journey as a Black artist living in 21st century America, the album’s 10 original tracks, (all co-written by Gilfillian) are as much about fighting for what you believe in: equity and representation, as it is about love, finding it, making it, and channeling it into every facet of our lives.

This Deluxe Edition adds 8 all-new bonus tracks!

“I wanted to share my story on this album and pour a whole lot of love into the gap that’s grown between people in our country. ‘All I Really Wanna Do’ is an anthem for living in the moment. It’s a song about taking a chance on love, on life, and on exploring yourself. It’s about being weird with the one you love and knowing that being yourself is enough. I want people to listen to this song and forget–even for a second—the sad things going on around the world. I want them to be reminded of the beauty and joy we have around us, as long as we’re looking and open to receive.”
