May 31, 2012, 2:22pm Societe Perrier
Bloc Party - Four (Album Trailer)
A lot has happened since we last heard from Bloc Party. Not only did lead singer Kele Okereke answer questions about his sexuality, but he also released a dance-heavy solo album, The Boxer. Suspicions arose if the future of Bloc Party was in question, but all rumors can be put to rest with the announcement [...]

kele’s on the lam…

Oct 13, 2010, 1:31am The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
Kele
On to single number three for Bloc Party's Kele Okereke to be lifted from his debut solo record The Boxer. To bring us up to date, Tenderoni appeared to throw many a fan off-track. Whether it was the synth-tastic direction of the track or Kele's corn-rows that he flashed in the video is anyone's guess. Second came what seemed to be a depiction of a lovelorn teenager emoting his lament over missing out on the girl that should have been in Everything You Wanted. This also happens to be my particular favourite song on [...]

Kele - Everything You Wanted (video)

Jul 27, 2010, 1:45pm soundsblog
Kele - Everything You Wanted
Sembra non essere felice il povero Kele Okereke . Sarà per colpa dell'astinenza dai suoi Bloc Party? No, davvero, niente scherzi: video molto riflessivo questo per Everything You Wanted , secondo singolo estratto dal primo album solista del frontman della band londinese. "The Boxer" è uscito lo scorso 21 giugno ricevendo giudizi contrastanti specialmente dovuti alla svolta elettronica di Kele. A dire il vero il primo singolo, Tenderoni , non mi aveva entusiasmato molto, questo Everything You Wanted acquistabile da metà agosto, migliora un po' l'impressioni sul disco anche [...]

Download: Kele – “Everything You Wanted (RAC remix)”

Jul 22, 2010, 12:27pm THE CULTURE OF ME
Kele Okereke's solo effort couldn't be made more bouncy and uptempo a treatment than this one, from the venerable André Allen Anjos from the Remix Artist Collective aka RAC, who takes the yearning, broken love song from Kele's debut The Boxer (out now) and siphons it through a mid-1980s post-teen club night filter, with thoughts [...]

[Watch] – Kele Okereke Performs Acoustic Version Of “New Rules”

Jul 20, 2010, 2:04pm Listen Before You Buy
[Watch] – Kele Okereke Performs Acoustic Version Of “New Rules” I've long been a fan of Bloc Party and when frontman Kele Okereke announced earlier this year that we'd be seeing a solo project from him pretty soon, I got excited for it. It turned out to not be what I expected it to be those few months ago, but instead a seemingly continuation of Bloc Party's last album "Intimacy", especially the more dance/electronic-fueled tracks.  Alicia over at BaebelMusic got in touch with me to let me know about a showcase he recently did for them featuring some cuts from his new solo album "The Boxer" as well [...]

Kele: The Boxer

Jun 17, 2010, 10:39am Music Fans Mic
Kele: The Boxer words: Gareth O’Malley // originally scribed for This Is Fake DIY Kele Okereke ’s always looked like a man who seems to know what he’s doing all, or most of, the time - even if others might not see it that way. Really though, the triple whammy he delivered over the last couple of months was nothing short of baffling. First came the certified club banger that was ‘Tenderoni’. Then, he was caught referring to his other band ( Bloc Party of course) as one he ‘used to be in’. [...]

The Killers e Bloc Party: due band dal destino simile?

Jun 16, 2010, 3:09am soundsblog
The Killers e Bloc Party: due band dal destino simile? Oggi, quando ho ascoltato il singolo solista di Brandon Flowers (il leader dei The Killers ), mi è venuta in mente una cosa: fino ad ora la carriera dei Killers e dei Bloc Party hanno avuto un andamento molto simile. I punti in comune sono tanti: entrambi i gruppi hanno avuto l'apice creativo e di successo con l'album di debutto (siamo a metà anni zero), seguito in entrambi i casi da un secondo disco con qualche spunto interessante ma nel complesso meno convincente e da un terzo disco decisamente poco riuscito.

rise and walk tall…

May 14, 2010, 12:12am The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
rise and walk tall… The 22nd of June is drawing closer and closer. The solo debut full-length from Kele Okereke is coming. With that, the slow drip of notes and beats becomes a bit more noticeable as today comes word of two tracks from The Boxer appearing on Kele's Soundcloud page. You've already heard Tenderoni and bounced around your room a few times (or at least I did) and now here are a couple of more tunes that should hopefully send you into a tizzy. First up comes  Walk Tall or what you get when you take [...]

[New] Kele – Rise & Walk Tall

May 13, 2010, 5:38pm Not Many Experts
[New] Kele – Rise & Walk Tall Bloc Party’s “Silent Alarm” was such a seminal turning point in the British wave of post-Strokes guitar noise that you can expect to have your online eyes overpowered by information about Kele’s forthcoming album “The Boxer”, regardless of whether your information sources think the material is actually worth listening to. This is yet another of those posts. Struggling (but not necessarily failing) to establish himself as a separate entity beyond Bloc Party, Kele tonight released two more tracks from the debut album. Upon first listen, “Rise” definitely appears to be the stronger of the two, initially resembling “Intimacy” [...]

kele goes pop…

May 6, 2010, 12:37am The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
Kele - TENDERONI
It's the promotional film for Kele's debut solo single Tenderoni . It's abundantly clear that this is no Bloc Party gig. Kele has accepted his inner raving pop demon and this video is proof of it. Who knew Kele became so buff? Where did this come from? My my, they grow way too fast, don't they? What's up with the corn rows. Bring back the dreads! Listening to the track a few more times, I must say I love it even more than I did before when I first heard it. The sound simply fits Kele like a..err...boxing glove. [...]
