Wallace Cleaver’s album Merci is a raw reflection on the contradictions of love and relationships. With 11 tracks, the album explores the emotional turmoil of ending a relationship only to later fantasize about it, blending past and future influences. The themes of urban and rural life, and a heart struggling with the intensity of its emotions, resonate throughout.
