James Blake Hints at Possible Album Title, Artwork

James Blake‘s last album, Overgrown, was released over three years ago. Now, the musician appears to have hinted at the potential title and artwork for a new project. Today, Blake retweeted several photos of a four-panel London mural featuring the phrase “The Colour in Anything.” The mural was painted by Sir Quentin Blake, who’s best known for illustrating the work of beloved children’s author Roald Dahl (Matilda, James and the Giant Peach.) A spokesperson for Blake declined to comment, but one of the musician’s associates, 1-800 Dinosaur Crew’s Dan Foat, favorited a fan tweet speculating on a possible connection to the musician’s new LP. (Blake tentatively titled the album Radio Silence last year.) The Facebook page for 1-800-Dinosaur also posted the image. Check out images of the mysterious mural below.

Blake’s released several new songs over the past few months. The musician unveiled “Modern Soul” on BBC Radio 1  back in February, followed by “RPG” with UK rapper Trim. Earlier this month, he shared the new track “Timeless.”
