Kele hooked up with dance-rock producer XXXchange for the Bloc Party front man’s debut solo album, The Boxer.  ”Tenderoni” is a powerful single and will certainly lead to a lot of interest and anticipation for the forthcoming album.  The single does a good job of distancing Kele’s solo project from his Bloc Party affiliation, which is an area where a lot of solo projects fall short.  The Boxer will be available on Glassnote Records in June.
